Welcome to the very first episode of Quietly Released — a podcast for women who are done proving and ready to live with clarity, depth, and quiet power.

In this episode, host Ana Cruz shares the personal story behind the name, the vision, and the movement. From divorce to reinvention, from silence to self-trust, Ana reflects on what it really means to let go of what no longer fits — and to build a life that finally feels like home.

You’ll hear:
• Why “quietly released” felt like the only name that fit
• What happens when we stop over-explaining and start choosing ourselves
• Ana’s journey as a mortgage broker, mother, and quietly powerful woman
• What’s to come in future episodes — including money, freedom, identity, and Portugal

This is a space for the softly ambitious.
The women who lead with presence, not performance.
And who know: your quietest decisions can be your most powerful.
