That’s a wrap on season 2!
This episode we are chatting with the amazing Olivia Howard. If you don’t know who they are, I promise you, you will be glad you hopped on this episode. We are wrapping up all the things that were discussed in this season about revolutionary leadership, and discussing the final,
*most important* topic... YOU! That’s right, the most important aspect to revolutionary leadership begins and ends with you, precious.
For some of you that may seem pretty ominous to your goals... focusing on yourself, but you need to. Olivia nails it in this episode when they say, “Revolutionary leadership is a deep commitment to our humanity”.
It’s all about being HUMAN, babe!
Be messy
be vulnerable
be needy AF.
When we start to give ourselves space to focus on ourselves, a lot of times our mind tells us to stop complaining about “first world problems”. As if our problems are frivolous. So we are eliminating that phrase, first world problems, because it just isn’t a thing.
Your problems matter, YOU matter.
While this is the end of season two :( Olivia and I brought all we had to this extended session and it is one you do not want to miss.This one isn’t just for you, is all about you!

035: No one wants you to be perfect
This episode is perfect in all the imperfect ways. We all hold onto this thought, even a little bit whether you are a revolutionary leader or not, that to be the BEST at anything, we must be perfect in all of the ways. Not only is this complete BS...
It’s exhausting!
Let’s get real together, perfectionism isn’t a damn thing. As revolutionary leaders we acknowledge that perfectionism needs to be put behind us, but it shows up in really funky other ways, and in this episode we are going to talk about it.
You deserve to be more than perfect. You deserve to be whole. You don’t need to have it all together. You get to let it all fall apart.
Perfectionism is a confining space that I am going to help you bust the hell out of. We are going to lose this fucked up sense of being perfect, and embrace our messy ass selves.

037: Be Loud, Be Real, Be Seen
The Bitch is back y’all!
We are on season 3 and this season is all about being loud, being real, and being seen!
This season is going to be different from the first 2 seasons- we’re diving into new topics and new perspectives. And guests are back this season because 1. Representation matters and 2. I want you to experience their journeys and how they’ve learned to be their bold, messy, loud, and real selves!
So who is this season actually for? Well precious it’s for my brilliant revolutionary folks, changemakers, entrepreneurs, and visionaries.
Here’s a quick preview of what we’re getting into this season:
- The perspective shifts that you need to make to be the loudest, boldest, and realest version of yourself
- Exactly what being loud, being real, and being seen really means
- All the ways that we don’t allow ourselves to be loud, be real, and be seen and what the fuck to do about it (spoiler alert- it’s about you, not them)
- Safety and how it’s an essential piece to showing up as our fullest selves
- How to bring in the good while releasing some fears of not being understood, accepted, and everything else you can think of
It’s gonna be a fantastic fucking season and I hope you commit to sticking around for the ride!
