If calling yourself a “CEO” still feels a little too bold, it’s time to rewrite that story. CEO isn’t about company size—it’s about ownership, leadership, and the way you show up for your business and your life.

In this episode, we’ll unpack why so many entrepreneurs hesitate to claim the title, how to reframe what being a CEO really means, and the simple daily practices that help you embody that identity with confidence.

You’ll Discover

• Why we shrink from the CEO title and how to release the conditioning that keeps us playing small
• The three pillars of modern leadership—Clarity, Empowerment, and Ownership—and how to use them to make aligned decisions
• Simple ways to embody your CEO energy today, from introducing yourself differently to making one decisive move forward
