#606: The Emotional Breakthrough I Wasn't Prepared For in Front of 500 People

Five days ago, I stepped onto a stage at the Pink Skirt Summit, an event founded by my girlfriend Renee Warren, and something cracked wide open in me. This episode is my attempt to share what happened, what I witnessed, and what I took away, not just from my own talk, but from the entire two days

In this episode, I'm sharing:

What I noticed the moment I walked into the event, and why the energy behind the scenes changes everything for the people in the room

Why asking the "safe" people is keeping you small (and what my girlfriend Renee modeled by going for the big asks anyway)

How to read the season your audience is in, and why that matters more than any strategy or slide deck

What happened the morning of my talk: the tears, the rewiring, the dress, the armpit sweat pads (yes, really)

Why your reputation enters the room before you do, and what that means for how you show up everywhere

The question my girlfriend Adele asked me that stopped me cold: "At what point are you going to see the version of yourself that we all see?"

What I shared on stage about not wanting more, and the woman who cried in the bathroom stall because I finally said the thing out loud

Why your value is no longer in what you know, it's in what you see

The permission to evolve: what I'm retiring in my business and what I'm stepping into next

Why I took the entire month of August off to write The Audacious Woman, and why I have zero regrets about it
