Feel the Fear And Do It Anyway: 5 BIG LESSONS From The Sisterhood Social Story


Listen Later

"Confidence doesn't come first, ACTION DOES"

In today's episode, I share the unfiltered story behind building our events, Sisterhood Socials.

What began with just three ticket sales has grown into a sold-out, high-impact experience. But this didn’t happen overnight. I get real about what it takes to start something meaningful when you’re filled with self-doubt, battling perfectionism, and figuring it all out as you go.

I unpack five big lessons from the journey: confidence, community, leadership, and the messy middle that no one talks about. If you’re launching something, pivoting careers, or feeling stuck in self-doubt, this episode will give you the push you need to back yourself and begin.

💡 What You’ll Learn in This Episode:
  • The real story behind Sisterhood Social’s growth, from three tickets to 100+
  • Why “starting before you're ready” is a career superpower

  • How to build momentum when no one’s watching yet

  • Why imposter syndrome is a signal, not a stop sign

  • Practical ways to build confidence through action

  • Why great careers (and communities) are built through consistency

  • The power of empathy, transparency, and human skills in leadership

  • Why tech careers are open to everyone — even if you didn’t come from tech
