Have you ever felt like you’re the background character in your own life — nodding along, playing it safe, and waiting for a moment that never quite arrives? In this empowering episode of Woman On The Rise, we’re talking about what it really means to step into your main character energy — not in a performative, over-the-top way, but in a grounded, embodied way that transforms how you walk into rooms, make decisions, and see yourself. This episode blends personal style, identity work, mindset shifts, and everyday rituals that help you stop shrinking and start leading from the inside out. If you’ve been craving a soft reset, if you know there’s more inside you, if you’re ready to stop playing small and start owning your presence;  this conversation is for you. In this episode, you’ll learn: - What main character energy really looks like in everyday life  - The exact mindset shifts to stop narrating like a side character  - How to reframe comparison and self-doubt into power  - Easy, style-forward rituals to spark confidence instantly  - How to set the tone in your environment, your day, and your relationships  - The daily habits that quietly rebuild your identity  - Why you don’t need to wait for a plot twist — *you are the plot twist* We close out the episode with a powerful journal prompt to help you apply everything and walk into your next chapter like you wrote the script.
