In this episode of Made to Fly, Serena Dodd is joined by business storyteller Hilary Salzman for a deeply affirming conversation about owning your voice, reclaiming your story, and releasing the quiet beliefs that keep so many women playing small.

Together, they explore why storytelling isn’t self-indulgent - it’s an act of leadership; how vulnerability (done on your own terms) builds confidence and connection; and why you’re allowed to choose which parts of your story you share.

In this episode of Made to Fly, Serena offers a much-needed antidote to the pressure of “new year, new you.” Instead of pushing for instant clarity or dramatic change, she invites you to slow down, tune inward, and choose your own pace.

From working in seasons and doing the quiet, behind-the-scenes “£10k work,” to closing the gap between what you already know and what you’re willing to act on, this episode is a compassionate reminder that progress doesn’t need to be loud!

Made to Fly is for those who’ve built a life that looks great on the outside—but quietly feels off on the inside. If you're feeling restless, stuck, or like you’re sleepwalking through a life that technically works but no longer feels like your own, you're not alone—and you're not ungrateful. You're ready for something more.

In this heartfelt and empowering episode of Made to Fly, Serena dives into the tender, universal desire to be liked - and why chasing approval often pulls us further from ourselves. Using vivid metaphors and real-life moments, she explores the gap between our true selves and the persona we project, and how narrowing that gap leads to deeper confidence, belonging, and freedom.

With warmth and honesty, Serena breaks down why external validation can never replace the acceptance we withhold from ourselves, and how giving people permission not to like you may be the most liberating shift of all. If you’ve ever bent yourself into shapes that didn’t feel like you, this episode invites you back home to authenticity and self-love.
