Stand Tall & Own It
“Just be you!” That’s what they all say. But it hasn’t always been safe or smart for high performing women - at school, at work, at church, at the PTA or even that exclusive networking event. Holding back kills your authenticity, and limits your impact. Just because we live in a world that is more friendly to strong, female leaders, that doesn't mean you feel "safe" being you. That's why it's imperative to know you, how you fit (or don’t) into the greater expectations of society, and understand that cookie-cutter leadership solutions will never be the answer. Each solution is as unique as the leader it is for.
This podcast was created for high performing female leaders who are ready to make an impact by discovering the safety that comes from understanding their own value and exercising their authority. It’s time to truly “be you,” to Stand Tall & Own It.

Stand Tall & Own It
Episode 101 - What Happens When the Dog Catches the Car
In today’s episode, we look at self sabotage. Why we are afraid to succeed, and how we can learn to short-circuit those terrible little cycles inside our heads that keep us from achieving what we are both capable of, and created for.
Topics discussed in this episode:
Self sabotage - is it the fear of success or is it something else?
- Fear of being seen / known
- Fear of failing or being discovered as a fraud
- Fear of rejection or not meeting expectations
- Fear of scarcity - not having enough money to pay my bills
Success pathways:
- Disrupt the cycle - do something drastic or different.
- Put one foot in front of the other.
- Remember who else is invested and make it about them instead of you
- Being accountable to others. Don’t live on an island alone - listen to those who have been there and support you.
