Sometimes the hardest part of growth is simply asking for what you want. In this episode, we share our real-time experience of reaching out to companies for collaborations as small creators. What started as a simple email quickly turned into a bigger conversation about overthinking, confidence, and learning to advocate for ourselves during a healing journey.

In this conversation, we talk about:

The fear and overthinking that comes with asking for opportunities

Why reaching out to brands felt so intimidating at first

The reality of sending emails and waiting for replies

How practicing self-advocacy slowly builds confidence

Why even a simple response can feel like progress

The importance of persistence when you're growing and putting yourself out there
