In this episode of fireyfemmes, we’re diving into one of the most powerful mindset shifts ambitious women make in adulthood:

Opportunities aren't assigned, they're created.

If you grew up being the “good student,” the reliable one, the hardworking one who expected merit to speak for itself… this conversation is for you.

Because the truth is:

❌ No one is coming to tap you on the shoulder
❌ Hard work alone doesn’t guarantee recognition
❌ Waiting to be chosen keeps you invisible

In adulthood especially as ambitious, high-earning, high-potential women, agency beats waiting. Action beats permission. Self-authorship beats approval.

Inside this episode, we explore:

✨ Why “pick me” conditioning runs deep for women
✨ The identity shift from good girl to self-authoring woman
✨ How stepping up creates momentum and invites opportunities
✨ Personal lessons from launching fireyfemmes without waiting for validation
✨ The first question to ask if you’ve been playing small or waiting for “the right time”

You don’t need a pat on the head, a title change, or someone’s blessing to go after what you want.

You get to choose yourself first.

🔥 Today’s Power Question

Where am I waiting to be picked and what would I do if I chose myself instead?
