Truth B Told by Scarlette Raes

Lorelle Campher

Season 2 is here — and if you’ve followed along since the beginning, you’ll hear the difference immediately. Truth B Told started in February 2019, before most South African women I knew had even said the word “podcast” out loud. I’ll be honest: going back and listening to those early episodes is a little cringe. My voice, my nerves, the way I second-guessed almost every sentence — it’s all there. But that discomfort is exactly the point. It’s proof of how far this show, and the woman behind it, has come. Growth is rarely graceful while it’s happening. It’s usually a little awkward, a little raw, and completely worth it. Season 2 picks up with a decade of Scarlette Raes behind me, a global community called A Woman in Progress that started with fifteen women in a room, and a framework for building a legacy that’s grown far beyond where it began. Each episode is an honest conversation about identity, faith, growth, and what it actually looks like to build something — a business, a family, a self — with intention instead of waiting to feel ready. If you’re in a season of becoming, you’re in the right place. Welcome back, or welcome for the first time. Truth B Told. Build a legacy.

    My Story: How I Built a Women's Community & Personal Brand From One Room

    My story of building a women's community and personal brand — and the quiet transformation that started it all. This is my story: how Scarlette Raes was born, and why I now spend my life helping women turn their lived experience, their strengths, and their season of becoming into something far bigger than they were ever told it could be. I wasn't the loudest woman in the room. For years I was the quiet one — capable, competent, and somehow still invisible. Life eventually asked me to lead anyway. This video is the honest version of how I got from there to here: the rock-bottom season that changed everything, the faith that carried me, and the decision to stop waiting until I was "ready" and start building intentionally instead. If you're a woman standing in the middle of your own becoming — not before it, not after it, but right in the messy, hopeful middle — this is for you. You are allowed to want more. More peace. More impact. More legacy. And you're allowed to build it. Start intentionally. Not perfectly. 🌿 Come build your legacy with us. A Woman In Progress is my free community for women who are done waiting to have it all figured out. It's a room where you're seen, resourced, and walked alongside — presence over performance, story over strategy.
