The B.O.L.D. Way Back to Yourself

Hey, Bold Soul,

This week on the Embrace Your Inner Boldness podcast I shared one of the most personal stories I’ve ever said out loud. I walked through the timeline of my life and how the work I do today with Becoming Bold was shaped by the environments I grew up in, the beliefs I inherited, and the masks I wore to survive.

Growing up, I absorbed a lot of messages about the world. Things like “we can’t afford that,” “rich people think they’re better than us,” or the idea that life was somehow stacked against us. There were also environments filled with chaos, substance abuse, and a lot of negativity about what was possible. When you grow up around those kinds of narratives, they become part of the lens you see the world through.
