Episode notes

So many of us say we don’t have shame, but it’s hiding in the way we apologize, over-explain, and say yes when we want to say no. In this episode, I am joined by author, podcaster, and event host Shoshanna Raven, to talk about the internal limits that silently sabotage women’s dreams, how shame silently runs your life in the background and how vulnerability can completely set you free. Shoshana shares the story of her herpes diagnosis, the spiral of self-abandonment that followed, and how telling the truth (first in private and then publicly) became the catalyst for her entire Living Brave movement. Get ready to step into the version of you who no longer hides.
