Feel the Fear And Do It Anyway: 5 BIG LESSONS From The Sisterhood Social Story
"Confidence doesn't come first, ACTION DOES"
In today's episode, I share the unfiltered story behind building our events, Sisterhood Socials.
What began with just three ticket sales has grown into a sold-out, high-impact experience. But this didn’t happen overnight. I get real about what it takes to start something meaningful when you’re filled with self-doubt, battling perfectionism, and figuring it all out as you go.
I unpack five big lessons from the journey: confidence, community, leadership, and the messy middle that no one talks about. If you’re launching something, pivoting careers, or feeling stuck in self-doubt, this episode will give you the push you need to back yourself and begin.
