To Podcast or Not?!

So many people want to use their voice but don't know where to start. I bring decades of experience in TV, magazines, radio and content creation to the conversation, and with 2 kids (ages 2 and 9) I'm living proof that you can try something new no matter what stage of life you are in. I'm here to motivate, inspire and guide women who are interested in getting their voices out there.

• Authenticity is king these days, so the more honest and raw you can be, the more people will connect with you.
• Stay true to what your mission is, not what you think people want to hear.
• You don't have to have a clear plan to start. Sometimes you just have to dive in and figure it out from there.
