Can I Just Say? is a phrase that I often say and one which is deeply rooted in the essence of who I am. It is how I enter conversations, initiate connection, and invite people to share their stories. The idea being that this is a platform and community where guests and listeners have the freedom to say whatever is on your mind and in your heart. So, when somebody leads with, “Can I just say?”, my answer is an emphatic “YES.” As I embark on this next stage of my podcasting journey, guests will be going beyond what’s expected and diving into the more raw, vulnerable parts of their stories that don’t often get enough air time or perhaps they’ve never shared before. In keeping aligned with my personal values, I am focused on building a community of cycle-breakers who want to connect and grow together.

In this vulnerable and insightful episode, I sit down with Carlo Taormina, a motivational speaker and life coach. Carlo courageously shares his transformative journey from battling anxiety and depression to rediscovering his self-worth and uncovering his purpose. We delve into the emotional depths of feeling lost, Carlo's struggles with limiting beliefs, and the pivotal moments that led him to a path of resilience and personal growth. Through our conversation, we highlight the profound impact of vulnerability in building meaningful connections and the importance of a robust support system. Carlo discusses practical strategies for transforming limiting beliefs into empowering narratives, encouraging listeners to engage in self-reflection and embrace their true potential. Join us for an inspiring dialogue on self-compassion, personal growth, and the journey to finding purpose.
