Episode notes

I’ve seen too many women miss out on life-changing opportunities because they’re confusing entitlement with empowerment, and calling it a “rich girl mindset” when it’s actually broke girl energy in disguise. In this episode, I talk about how to spot when free opportunities are actually more valuable than a paycheck, how to know what’s truly worth your time, and how to build momentum in your “internship era.” I also share the stories behind the free speaking gigs and media features that didn’t pay me upfront, but ultimately made me millions. If you’re turning down stages, interviews, or visibility just because they don’t come with a check, you could be blocking the leverage your brand needs.
