Not Just His Plus One is the podcast for women who know they’re meant for more. If you’re ambitious, emotional, opinionated, curious and tired of apologizing for it this space is yours. I’m Luiza, a former “perfect girl” turned location-independent marketing strategist, here to talk real stories: messy pivots, quiet wins, identity shifts, and leaving the roles that no longer fit. Honest, unfiltered conversations to help you grow, glow, and create a life that’s actually yours.
