This episode explores multiple intersections, like: -the patriarchal oppression of the femal...

Instead of lusting after someone's IG or free content- get curious about their business model. How are they making money? Is it an ebook? A DIY course? 1:1 Coaching? group coaching?

Time is one of the biggest things we talk about in UnFYB-- time is a non-renewable resource, once we spend it, we can't get it back. What happens all too often is that once you start a business, you jam-pack your schedule with anything that will bring you money. I get it. I really do. At some point, you'...

It happens to all of us- the sky opens up and BAM- buckets of poop come pouring down on top of you. Such is life.

I may lose a lot of you on this episode, so here's what you need to know heading into it: Not all of our thoughts are true. Our thoughts dictate our feelings. Our feelings are valid, EVEN IF our thoughts aren't true (or helpful.) Chances are, you're just like me. You love lifting, you love the grit, you love the grind, you love the focus.

I think we've been asking ourselves the wrong questions. We waste an awful lot of time asking and wondering: Do I look ok? Does my hair look alright? Am I wearing enough makeup? Or too much? Does my body look ok? Does it tell the 'right' story? Am I doing this right? When really, I think, what we've been trying to ask along is: Am I relevant? Do I matter? Does anyone see me? Am I lovable? I wonder...
