    63|Embracing Identity, Culture, and the Courage to Be Yourself a Conversation with Urmi Hossain

    "I am Italian by birth. I'm Bengali by blood. Rather than choosing either one, I choose both." For years, Urmi Hossain felt caught between two worlds. Growing up between cultures, she often found herself adapting to fit the expectations around her, while quietly wondering where she truly belonged. The journey to discovering her identity wasn't about choosing one side or the other—it was about embracing all the pieces that made her who she is. In this thoughtful conversation, Urmi shares her experience navigating cultural identity, overcoming self-doubt, and finding the courage to show up as her authentic self. Together, Karen and Urmi explore what it means to belong, to trust yourself, and to create a life that reflects your values rather than other people's expectations. This conversation isn't just about culture. It's about identity. It's about self-acceptance. And it's about giving yourself permission to stop choosing between parts of who you are and instead embrace the whole of who you were meant to be. About Urmi:  Urmi Hossain is a self-published author, speaker, podcast host, and finance professional based in Canada. Italian by birth and Bengali by blood, she embraces her multicultural identity and uses her voice to advocate for women’s empowerment, confidence, and self-leadership.

    62|The Photos Were Just the Proof: Finding Confidence Through a Different Lens with Lauren Schwab

    "It brought this fierce energy that I had never felt before." When Lauren Schwab stepped in front of the camera for her first boudoir session, she expected beautiful photographs. What she didn't expect was a complete shift in how she saw herself. In this heartfelt conversation, Lauren shares how one experience helped rewire years of self-doubt and transformed the confidence she carried into every area of her life. What began as a photo session became something much deeper—a reminder of her beauty, strength, and worth. This conversation isn't really about photographs. It's about confidence. It's about self-worth. It's about reclaiming the woman who has been there all along. Because sometimes the transformation isn't in the image. The image is simply the proof. And sometimes, all it takes is seeing yourself through a different lens to discover a fierce energy you never knew was there. Lauren continues this conversation in the upcoming issue of Being Brave Tour Magazine, where she invites readers to reflect on the beauty, confidence, and courage that already exist within them.

    67|Feeling like you've been living through someone else's lens?

    Feeling like you've been living through someone else's lens? Needing permission to see yourself with fresh eyes? Girlfriend... have you ever stopped and wondered if the life you're living is based on what you truly want... or what you've always believed you were supposed to want? Maybe you've spent years trying to be the perfect mom. The perfect wife. The perfect daughter. The woman who always puts everyone else first. And somewhere along the way... you stopped hearing your own voice. In this heartfelt conversation, Kristi Parry shares the powerful story behind her signature "lensless glasses" and why removing the lenses became a metaphor for letting go of shame, expectations, and stories that were never hers to carry. Together, we explore what it means to reconnect with your inner sparkle, trust your own wisdom, and begin creating a life that feels authentically yours. So grab your favorite drink, settle in for a little "me time," and ask yourself one simple question... What if the clearest way to see your life... is without someone else's lenses?

    60|The Love Song You Finally Sing to Yourself with Chris Dyer

    The Love Song You Finally Sing to Yourself Podcast Description What if the most important relationship in your life is the one you've been neglecting? In this heartfelt conversation, Karen sits down with Chris Dyer to explore self-love, self-discovery, and what it means to return to yourself after years of caring for everyone else. Together, they discuss the patterns many women know all too well—putting others first, losing sight of their own needs, and measuring their worth through what they do rather than who they are. Chris shares a powerful perspective on love, boundaries, and reclaiming the parts of ourselves that may have been forgotten beneath the roles of caregiver, partner, mother, and professional. This episode is an invitation to pause, reflect, and consider a beautiful question: What if the love, compassion, and devotion you've been seeking from others is something you can begin giving yourself? You'll leave feeling encouraged to embrace your own worth, reconnect with your authentic self, and perhaps begin singing a new love song—one that starts from within. Because maybe the most powerful love song you'll ever hear is the one you finally sing to yourself. 💗
