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.

1 BIG IDEA
Setbacks don’t sideline real leaders—they shape them. If you want results that actually last, resilience isn’t optional—it’s the edge.
4 WAYS TO APPLY THIS
- Stop glossing over failure—name it, and let it teach you.
- Audit your last flop: What part of you was missing from that moment?
- Reconnect with your Core Values before you “try again.”
- Reset with one move that honors who you are—not what they expect.
3 QUESTIONS TO ASK YOURSELF
- What’s one setback I’ve been avoiding—and what’s it still trying to tell me?
- Did I lead with integrity in that moment, or just survive it?
- Where have I already proven I’m resilient—and how can I build from there?
