Reading the room is something I thought I could brag about.... Turns out it's just another coping skill I learned from a young age...

On top of that, I never learned to read myself in the process.

Women are never born the strong, independent & mature women they're build into.

They were created scenario after scenario starting at such young ages that most of us will never understand how soon it actually started effecting our identities.

I've been thinking a lot about where I want my podcast to go. I am going to be transitioning to story telling not to point fingers but to share awareness as to how women create their identities from such a young age.

Nobody talks about what grief actually looks like when you're pulling yourself out of survival mode.

Grief comes in many shapes, sizes and colors.

How many women have thought to themselves... "Something is wrong with me. Am I the problem? Am I a bad person"?

No, you've just never felt peace. Truly felt and lived it... because Chaos has always been home.

You're not angry. You're not bitter.

You just spoke the truth one too many times and that jeopardized the ENTIRE family image.... so the family obviously needed to get creative.

Anger is just a surface level emotion that shows in specific scenarios and often earns women the label of "bitch, cunt, etc"... well I'm going to explain to you why anger is something also a protector of sorts.

How many women out there are hyper aware of EVERYONE AND EVERYTHING?

Yeah that's a gift in some settings but not all the time.. that's survival mode.

Have you ever been called an "independent woman"? My guess is you're in survival mode if you have.

In this episode, Sandra breaks down what it really means to become self-led after years of living survival-built.

For the black sheep woman who became strong, spicy, guarded, and responsible because softness never felt safe — this is your wake-up call. Sandra shares why she created Black Sheep Wake-Up, Black Sheep Reset, and her 6-month mentorship Self-Led Black Sheep to help women stop being led by damage, guilt, old family roles, and nervous system survival patterns.

This episode is for the woman who is done shrinking, over-explaining, hiding, and calling chaos normal.

You are not broken.
You are survival-built.
But survival does not get to lead you forever.
