Welcome to a reair episode of "You Can Call Me Bossy Podcast "! In this very first interview of the podcast Mary and her guest dive deep into the challenges and triumphs of women’s assertiveness in a discussion that strips back the layers of being labeled "bossy". Joining us today is Kimberly Dashiell who, at 61, is a beacon of resilience and inspiration. 

Kimberly shares her compelling journey from the acting stages to becoming a fitness and health coaching guru. After the pandemic dealt a harsh blow to her business, Kimberly emerged stronger, reinventing herself and her brand in the digital world—a world where her voice, once stifled both in her childhood and online, now resonates with clarity and purpose.

She gets into the complexities of self-expression for women across generations, from her feminist mother's lessons to fostering a world where girls can grow up assertive without being silenced by the "bossy" tag. This episode is a powerful conversation about the strength of self-trust, the journey towards authentic communication, and the importance of challenging the perceptions that bind the true potential of women.
