This oneâs raw. Real. And long overdue. In this soul-poured solo episode, I take you with me- literally and energetically as I walk home and share the truth about why the work I do isnât just powerful⊠itâs essential.

info_outlineđïž Rebel Truths Episode: "Playing Small Is Selfish as F*ck"
Letâs get one thing straight:
đš Playing small isnât responsible. Itâs not humble. Itâs not noble.
đ„ Itâs SELFISH. Period.
In this fire-fueled episode, Iâm breaking down the real cost of dimming your light and shrinking your power.
You think youâre protecting yourself from judgmentâŠ
But what youâre actually doing is robbing the world of the magic only you can bring.
Every time you hesitate, downplay your brilliance, or wait for âthe right timeâ...
đ« Someone else misses the message, the permission, the activation they need from you.
đ„ Inside this episode:
đŁ Why playing small is the ultimate form of self-absorption
đŁ The hidden damage youâre doing by staying quiet, safe, or ârelatableâ
đŁ How shrinking your power to be liked is blocking your impact
đŁ What it actually looks like to take up space with unapologetic leadership
đŁ The shift that turns fear into fuelâand gets you SEEN, PAID, and RESPECTED
đ„ Rebel Truth Punches:
đ§š âYour fear of being âtoo muchâ is stopping you from giving enough.â
đ§š âYouâre not being humble. Youâre hiding.â
đ§š âYour power isnât about youâitâs about what it does for everyone else who sees you lead.â
đŻ This episode is for you if:
â
Youâve been second-guessing your boldest ideas
â
Youâre tired of filtering your voice to be more âdigestibleâ
â
You know youâre built for biggerâbut youâve been playing in safe zones
â
Youâre ready to be remembered for your impact, not your politeness
đ§ Listen now & get the f*ck out of your own way.
