12: The Power of Your Voice, Your Story, and Truly Listening with Bethany Hawkins
What if your voice isn’t just meant to be heard, but also honored? And what if sharing your story could be the exact thing that changes your life and someone else’s?
In this powerful, laughter-fueled episode, I sit down with Bethany Hawkins, a seasoned entrepreneur, podcast producer, and founder of the award-winning podcast production company Crackers In Soup, to explore what it really means to use your voice with intention.
After spending 18+ years in corporate America (in the criminal justice system), Bethany made a bold pivot and started her own business. Now she’s helping women of color and historically underrepresented voices launch, grow, and lead impactful podcasts that shift narratives and change lives.
Whether you're:
- thinking about leaving your 9–5 to start something of your own
- curious about how to start a podcast that actually feels like you
- struggling with imposter syndrome as a creative or entrepreneur
- or wondering if your story even matters...
This episode is one you’ll want to keep coming back to.
We talk about:
- Bethany’s transition from corporate to full-time podcast producer
- How podcasting can be a tool for healing, visibility, and impact
- Why your story doesn’t need to be perfect to be powerful
- How to build authentic community through storytelling
- Plus: A $1,000 tip Bethany usually only shares in private sessions (free game for y’all)
You’ll laugh, you’ll probably cry (I did), and you’ll leave with the reminder that your voice is the most powerful tool you have.
