School taught you that creativity, individuality and questioning authority were problems to be solved. But in today's world? Those are the exact skills that make you unstoppable.
Laura Canavan Hayes joins Amanda for a raw conversation about everything the education system got wrong - and how to reclaim what they tried to strip away.
In this deeply personal episode, Amanda and Laura unpack:
Laura's journey: From painting maintenance sheds in rebellion to walking away from a six-figure banking job to pursue acting and why a particularly demoralising "failure" was actually perfect preparation.
Amanda's realization: At almost 50, she's finally learning what it actually means to "apply herself"
The game-changer: What if everything you were told to suppress to "survive" in the world is exactly what you need to thrive?
The permission slip you've been waiting for: You can be many things. It's never too late to pivot, create, or claim your space in the world exactly as you are.
