    You know that little voice that says just ask for something reasonable so you don’t rock the boat. We're going to light that voice on fire today. We'll break down how modesty culture tricks smart people into playing small and shares a story from her own career that will make you yell oh no she didn’t. By the end you will have a mindset shift, a power phrase, and the courage to make the ask that terrifies you in the best way.

    You Are Allowed to Take Up Space

    This episode is about unlearning the survival skill of shrinking. I walk through how I apologized for everything from my tattoos to my hair to my literal presence and how that stopped the day someone told me I was powerful. If you tend to fold yourself into a human origami shape at work, this one is for you.

    Today we expose the myth that confidence comes first. It doesn’t. Action does. I tell the story of how I went from getting sixth place on stage to winning everything in sight with nothing but fear, stubbornness, and an alter ego named Carmen Bugatti. If you’re waiting to feel ready, you’ll be waiting forever.
