Babe, 2024 was a wild ride—and I’m not holding back. In this episode of **Badass + Bulletproof**, I’m getting real about the biggest mistakes I made this year, the lessons they taught me, and how I’m stepping into 2025 with more clarity, boundaries, and confidence than ever.
From taking on work that drained me, to ignoring my gut (big mistake), to finally letting go of offers that no longer served me—I'm sharing it all so you can avoid the same pitfalls and step into your CEO power *sooner.*
**Inside this episode, I dive into:**
💥 Why taking a 3-month contract job nearly broke me mentally.
💥 The dangers of overgiving and how it almost led to burnout.
💥 What happens when you ignore your intuition and say "yes" when you should say "HELL NO."
💥 Staying in your genius zone and why doing *everything* isn't the flex you think it is.
💥 The relief that comes when you finally let go of what’s not working.
If you've ever felt like you're holding on too tight, saying yes too much, or struggling to trust your gut—this one’s for you.

Some of my clients are multi-millionaires. Some are brands you know by name. And guess what? They didn’t get there by playing it safe, and neither will you.
In today’s episode of Badass + Bulletproof, I’m pulling back the curtain on what separates high-level women from those who stay stuck spinning their wheels. I’m talking about the mindset shifts, the bold moves, and the no-BS strategies that take you from playing small to scaling big.
You’ll learn:
🔥 Why high-level women make decisions FAST (and why overthinking is killing your growth).
🔥 How they ditch ego, take radical responsibility, and own their sh*t.
🔥 The secret to condensing EVERYTHING—because efficiency = power moves.
🔥 Why they leap before they feel “ready” (and how you’re holding yourself back waiting for the perfect time).
If you’re still sitting in hesitation mode, waiting for things to magically change—this episode is your wake-up call, babe. It’s time to stop waiting and start making bold, unapologetic moves.
