Stand Tall & Own It - Empowering Purpose-Driven Women to Lead with Authenticity and Impact
"Just be you!" they say. But for high-performing women, "just being you" hasn’t always felt safe or practical—whether it’s at work, school, church, or even at exclusive networking events. For purpose-driven women and founders, holding back can limit your impact and undermine your authenticity.
Even in a world that’s more welcoming to strong female leaders, feeling truly "safe" in your own skin is still a challenge. To lead with clarity and confidence, you must first understand your value, embrace your individuality, and recognize that the solutions you need are as unique as you are.
This podcast is for modern women who lead with purpose and are ready to embrace their full potential and create an impact that aligns with their vision and values. It’s time to find the clarity and confidence to lead in a way that’s authentic to you. Join me as we explore how to navigate challenges, honor your unique path, and make a lasting difference.

Morgan Emo is a stay-at-home mom and small business owner of Child Life Coffee. The first year of her son’s life was full of tremendous emotional and spiritual tribulation, yet amazing spiritual and emotional growth. She and her husband started Child Life Coffee, realizing a dream to provide support to child life programs through the sale of fresh roasted coffee. Their mission and goal is to ensure that other hospitalized families receive the same care and support they did. It has taken immense courage and energy to start a small business, but provided her with a newfound sense of purpose and pride. She’s driven by a desire to give back while remaining present in the life of her family.
