This is the episode I wish I'd had three years ago — back when I was sitting at home wondering if it was even okay to want what I wanted.

I'm packing for Cannes right now. I'm hosting a TV show at the festival next week. And I'm recording this without my hair and makeup done, because I want you to see what being a celebrity actually looks like — not the version you've been sold.In this episode, I'm answering every question I get asked about how this work actually works. The ones people DM me. The ones people are too polite to ask. All of it.

We cover:— Why wanting fame is not vain, selfish, or cringe (and why you can stop apologizing for it)— The real reason your content isn't converting — and why no posting strategy is going to fix it— The fame vs. celebrity vs. Celebrity Energy distinction, and the Marilyn Monroe story that cracked it open for me— Your Energetic Thermostat — and why you self-sabotage every time things start working— My three trips to Cannes, and the very different relationship I had to the festival each time— The exact objections that come up before someone joins my world — and the truth underneath each one— The three ways you can work with me, and how to figure out which room is yours.

Whether you're brand new here or you've been circling my offers for a while, this is the conversation that answers it.
