Welcome to Season 3 of The Erica Diamond Podcast!
Today’s episode is care of a social media app that you might have heard me speak about a lot lately. Yup, you guessed it, Clubhouse!
What I love about this app is, you can photoshop your wrinkles, or you can filter out your cellulite on Instagram, but you can’t photoshop your soul, or your voice. Voices and vibes don't often lie.
When I hear Dana speak, her energy literally jumps out of my phone. On today's episode, Dana (pronounced Donna) is here to teach us how to gain confidence, how to show up and speak up. Today's episode is about how to find our voice and how to shine in social media and in life.
