Slightly Unfiltered with Desiree Wolfe

Gena is an education advocate and when she decided to close down her direct sales business she felt there was more that she could do in her community to help fuel her passion. While voting for the school board she saw an empty seat and decided to write her name in.

She’s the mother of a future female astronaut and a son who loves to play music. Oh and she runs a farm with her husband. Gena is nothing short of a badass mama who inspires women to take a chance and to not be afraid to adjust your sails when the wind blows.

Gena and I chatted about:

• Why it’s important for women to be involved in local politics
• What it means to sit on a school board during a pandemic
• Encouraging women to ask more questions
• What it means to have an “impact business”

You’ve wrestled with your inner critic and you’ve let the voice in your head run your whole life. Now you’re worried she is winning this fight. If you’ve let those negative thoughts hold you back from taking big steps towards your goals and dreams, then you’ll definitely want to tune into this episode with guest Coach Jennie.  We discuss how this voice you hear in your head is keeping you filtered (and why it's totally normal).

Coach Jennie is the expert in the Inner-Critic, or as she calls her - Hilda. She is the author of Hilda: Tackle Your Inner Naysayer, Get Out of Your Own Way, and Unleash Your Badassery. Oh, and by the way, she’s MY coach, too. I have worked with Jennie for several years to learn how to get out of my own way. Now, it’s my turn to share her with you.

Coach Jennie and I chatted about:

• What “squandering your potential” really means
• How the self-proclaimed gurus are gaslighting their followers
• Why hanging out with like-minded people is actually dangerous for your growth
• A big shift she made in her own business that scared the crap out of her (but she did it anyway)
• Why coming out meant becoming unfiltered

Ruth was an absolute delight to have on the show. She is a UK transplant, now living in Canada with her wife and adjusting to all the things. She's an educator by profession and a writer by passion. (She's looking for a literary agent..hint hint).  

Ruth and I chatted about

• What it means to be queer in the workplace (and when coming out isn't the answer)
• Why a young male boss didn't like her response to something he said (and what happened)
• How getting older means getting more unfiltered when you're a woman

Get ready to laugh your socks off as I bring on my partner in crime, the one and only Susan Nicholas! We go way back – like, ancient friendship status. Susan's the kind of friend who's my daily sanity pill, keeping the loony bin at bay. So, we're diving into the hilarity and heartache of girlfriend dynamics. We reminisce about our childhood crew dwindling away and how crucial it is to cling to your gal pals as you gracefully stumble into adulthood.

Ever feel like motherhood's got you in a headlock? We've got the antidote! Plus, brace yourself for some mild profanity because, hey, life's too short to censor the truth. Stay tuned for more epic gab sessions with me and my posse.
