✨ October was pretty solid ✨

Live Podcasting Event
Connected and yapped with my creative + talented friends
Met my client IRL and attended her workshop
Chianti wine tasting and lunch under the Tuscan Sun
Tuscany for my friends wedding
Dipping my toes in the Adriatic Sea
Visiting Croatia was a dream

Also got very sick on my honeymoon, missed my dog everyday while I was gone and had some bouts of self doubt when it comes to building my business as it’s challenging building something from nothing. I keep pushing knowing that the seeds and lessons I’m learning now will pay off eventually and trusting the process.

✨ Ep 75 is a special BONUS episode today! ✨ Two weeks ago, I live podcasted from Empowered Moms 3rd annual event and had the pleasure of recording with eleven fantastic women. I asked them all what it means to them to be an “empowered mom”, a proud mom moment they’ve experienced, and explored the impacts they make in the world. It was an inspiring event where women networked and heard from several powerful speakers that shared their personal stories that left attendees feeling supported, uplifted, and connected. Thank you to everyone below who got behind the mic with me, appreciate it! 💞 So so fun!

It was pretty surreal being in the studio under the bright lights with three cameras a few feet away but at the same time it felt oddly very comfortable. I’ve never been on live television before so there was no script, no prep questions, nada, just me and my authentic self sharing my passion for teaching others the power of podcasting through my new digital course, The Podcast Container, I just launched on my website!

Grateful to connect with online viewers and huge thanks for the amazing crew that were so warm and welcoming! Let’s do it again soon! 😉
