After a few months off the mic, I’m back!!!! Not to explain the gap, but to talk about what actually changed while I was living instead of broadcasting.

In this episode, I share what building The Out Loud School has been teaching me about voice, leadership, and showing up in real-time. I talk about navigating grief after losing my dad, and how that cracked open new layers of honesty and softness in my life. I also get into the connection between love and money — worthiness, receiving, letting yourself be supported — and how doing that inner untangling has made life and business feel more spacious and more fun.

This isn’t a “comeback,” it’s a continuation. A reminder that visibility isn’t about constant output. It’s about being rooted in who you are when you do choose to speak.

If you’re in a season of becoming, integrating, or reclaiming your voice on your own timeline, this one will land. And if you want a place to practice being seen in real time, come join us inside The Out Loud School. Link in show notes.

What happens when your brand no longer fits the version of you that’s evolved, healed, and stopped pretending?

In this electric conversation, I’m joined by Morgan Carrington Burton — creative strategist, presence mentor, and single mom — who helps entrepreneurs burn down the watered-down version of themselves and rebuild an online presence that actually feels like them.

We talk about:

• What happens when you refuse to evolve your brand
• The moment Morgan realized she could no longer shapeshift to be liked
• The biggest lies entrepreneurs are telling through their branding
• Whether we’re addicted to visibility or just scared to be truly seen
• The truth about building a brand most people won’t say out loud

Morgan is the creator of the Aligned Presence Method and co-founder of D/M Strategies, and in this episode, she shows up exactly the way she teaches — honest, magnetic, and unfiltered.

Plus, stick around for the 🔥 rapid fire round where we get into alter egos, guilty pleasures, and the last time she felt deeply seen.

If you’ve ever felt like your presence online was lagging behind the person you’ve become — this one’s your permission slip to catch up.

Let’s get one thing straight: Women aren’t quiet because they lack confidence. They’re quiet because the culture taught them it’s safer that way.

In this episode of Say It Out Loud, I’m breaking down why “just speak up” is some of the laziest, most surface-level advice given to women in corporate spaces — and why it completely misses the point.

Visibility isn’t a confidence issue. It’s a culture issue.
And culture is shaped by leadership, not by how loud someone speaks in a meeting.

I’m diving into:
 🔥 Why confidence isn’t the solution — safety is.
 🔥 How broken leadership communication creates visibility gaps.
 🔥 Why organizations keep trying to “fix” individuals instead of fixing culture.
 🔥 The truth about psychological safety and trust inside leadership.
 🔥 How The Out Loud Visibility Method™ creates space for real change.

If you’re tired of the performative “speak up” rhetoric and ready for conversations that address the real problem, this one’s for you.

Visibility isn’t optional. Communication shapes culture. Leadership starts with how you listen.

Let’s talk about friendship — the kind that stretches you, challenges you, and teaches you who you really are.

In this episode, I’m joined by my best friend Silvy Khoucasian — licensed marriage and family therapist, relationship coach, and one of the wisest people I know — for a deeply honest conversation about what it really takes to maintain friendship as an adult.

Silvy and I have been in a long-distance friendship for a few years now, and it hasn’t always been smooth. We’ve had to navigate mismatched expectations, boundaries, distance, emotional labor, and yes… the question of when to stay and when to let go.

We cover:

• Are tiered friendships helpful or harmful?
• What to do when one person is all-in and the other is casual
• How to set boundaries without ghosting or guilt
• The difference between emotional intimacy and emotional outsourcing
• Loyalty vs. self-abandonment
• When longevity isn’t the same as depth
• And how to keep a friendship alive across time zones and identity shifts

This isn’t just theory. This is real-life, lived experience between two women who’ve done the work — and are still doing it.

If you’ve ever struggled with outgrowing friends, feeling too needed (or not needed enough), or wondered how to stay rooted in your relationships without betraying yourself… this episode is for you.

This isn’t a polished episode. It’s not a masterclass or a list of tips. It’s just me, saying it out loud.

On May 22, 2025, I watched my dad take his final breath.
 And nothing has been the same since.

In this episode, I talk about what it’s like to witness death—and how it cracked me open in ways I never expected. The things I used to obsess over? The overthinking, the self-doubt, the constant need to get it “right”? I don’t have the capacity for that anymore. I’m not the same person I was before he died.

If you’ve ever lost someone… if you’re navigating grief… or if you just feel like life has shifted you into a new version of yourself—this one’s for you.

Unfiltered. Unscripted. From my heart to yours.

🎙️ RE-AIR: My Guest Episode on Wellness + Wisdom with Josh Trent

Today, I’m sharing a powerful conversation that originally aired on the Wellness + Wisdom podcast, where I sat down with Josh Trent to go deep—and I mean say-it-all-out-loud deep.

We talked about the voice in your head, how to stop outsourcing your truth, and why self-talk is one of the most important spiritual practices you’ll ever commit to. This isn’t your typical surface-level wellness chat—we’re talking about visibility, shame, inner dialogue, and what it really takes to reclaim your power when your mind won't shut up.

Whether you’re new to this community or a longtime listener, this episode will give you a fresh reminder: your voice is not too much. It’s the key to everything.

🔑 Topics we dive into:

• How to shift your self-talk and stop performing
• The connection between visibility and self-worth
• Speaking your truth even when it’s uncomfortable
• Mental health, personal leadership, and being seen—on purpose

This episode originally aired on Wellness + Wisdom but I knew it had to live here too.

Let me know what lands. Share it with a friend who needs to hear it. And as always… say it out loud.
