86. My Untold Story: Tapping into your Power

As an entrepreneur, you get challenged, pushed, and folded in so many ways, so you can't really have all the conversations about entrepreneurship and being a CEO without talking about the person behind the company. In today's episode, I am getting vulnerable with you; I'm sharing something online that I have never publicly shared, and while it may not be the most lighthearted or fun episode, it's a compelling one. Trigger Warning: this episode speaks of mental health issues, suicide, abuse, and eating disorders. 

 

In this episode, we cover…

• The power of choice
• How traumatic experiences affected my wellbeing
• Realizations from recovering from mental illness
• What trauma responses are
• The mission of entrepreneurship

 

'No matter where you've been, where your past has taken you, knowledge and experiences have shaped who you are and where you are today. They don't determine where you go next".

 

 "Even if you have not necessarily been through some crazy shit, hopefully in life, we all struggle with confidence. We all struggle with self-doubt and impostor syndrome. And all of that gets amplified and brought up in entrepreneurship in a new way. Remembering your power of choice, tapping back into your voice and power is important in your success."

 

"It is my mission to help women go deep and understand the level of confidence that isn't only needed to build a business but to feel confident enough to leave bad situations to create your wealth. No one can ever take that away from you to go through the journey to create your happiness and your joy. So again, no one can take that away from you. And also to have this conversation in public."
