Shoot the Sh*t with Britt Burnham

Episode Summary

This episode is literally me laying in bed on a Friday night at like 6pm, fresh out of the shower, realizing my phone had zero storage left… so instead of recording another video to my camera roll, I hit record on the podcast and used this as my diary. 😂

No outline. No plan. Just real life.

I talk about how podcasting has honestly become my therapy over the years because I’ve never been a journal girl. My thoughts move way too fast for my hands to keep up, so talking it out has always been my release.

And holy sh*t… life can completely change in one year.

I get into the highs, the chaos, the rebuilding seasons, the pressure, the growth, and what it’s looked like chasing what I call the 5 freedoms — freedom in my health, relationships, finances, time, and purpose.

This episode is for anyone who feels stuck, overwhelmed, burnt out, or in a season where they know they’re meant for more… but they’re scared to make the move.

We talk entrepreneurship, motherhood, wellness, leadership, community, self-care, taking risks, and what happens when you finally stop waiting for permission and start owning your PWR.

It’s messy. Vulnerable. Motivational. Therapeutic.
And honestly… just me shooting the sh*t with you from my bed. 🤍

You just need to start.
