In this powerful episode of Write To Rise, we’re diving deep into a topic that’s close to my heart: competition—and why it’s time for women to stop fighting against each other and start rising together. From childhood experiences of being left out to navigating a competitive healthcare system, I share my personal journey of breaking free from the mindset that we have to "beat" others to get ahead.

As women, we’ve been conditioned for centuries to compete—for approval, for resources, for recognition. But what if we stopped seeing each other as threats and started building together, supporting each other, and healing the deep-rooted sisterhood wound?

I’ll take you through how my experiences in nursing, holistic health, and entrepreneurship revealed the toxic cycle of competition—and why it’s time for a shift. In a world where collaboration over competition is more needed than ever, I’m inviting you to step into a new paradigm: one where we empower one another, build businesses with heart, and show up for each other in a way that’s rooted in abundance, not scarcity.

This episode is a call to arms for all the women in business, health, wellness, and entrepreneurship: We are better together. We rise together.

Tune in to hear:

* Why competition can be exhausting and isolating—and how to break free from it.

* The deep-seated roots of the sisterhood wound and why we need to heal it.

* How to build a more supportive, collaborative business culture where everyone thrives.

* My personal journey of leaving behind toxic work environments to build something better.

Let’s stop playing games. It’s time to rise, heal, and create a new way of being—together.
