Lisa Bilyeu sits down with Emmy Award–winning entrepreneur, author, and creator of She Takes on the World, Natalie MacNeil. From launching her first company at just 21 to becoming a guiding force for women ready to embrace their full selves in business, Natalie shares her candid journey of learning how to be both successful and authentically herself—especially in male-dominated spaces.

Natalie opens up about the personal challenges she’s faced, from navigating expectations in her family to battling her own limiting beliefs about success and identity. She reveals the transformative advice she received from Arianna Huffington, moments of vulnerability, and the impact of choosing to reveal rather than conceal her true self.

Together, Lisa and Natalie dive deep into actionable strategies for breaking down big goals into achievable steps, trusting your intuition, and making space for magic—even when fear tries to shut you down. Natalie also shares her powerful rituals for self-reflection, like writing letters to her future self, and reminds us why documenting our journeys is so essential.
