Welcome to a brand-new segment inside Becoming Emboldened — Once Upon a Trauma. This isn't your typical fairytale recap. It's where we unpack the childhood stories, Disney fantasies, and Saturday morning cartoons that quietly shaped how we (as millennials) saw love, leadership, identity... and ourselves.

In this premiere episode, I’m joined by my friend and thoughtful truth-teller Nancy Nycum, as we explore the stories that stuck with us and the messages we didn’t know we were internalizing. From unrealistic princess plots to hidden leadership lessons, we’re calling out the myths and making room for healing.
