    How to Lead When Your Life Is Falling Apart Behind the Scenes

    In this solo episode, I’m pulling the curtain back on the three things sitting at the center of my world right now: The Out Loud School, Black Friday, and the six-month mark of losing my dad. I talk about what grief has clarified in my life, what I’m no longer willing to do in my business, and why I’m not running a Black Friday sale despite the entire online world screaming for urgency. I share the deeper truth behind the way I’m building The Out Loud School, not from panic or discounts, but from integrity, longevity, and the power of our actual voice. If you’re in a season of reevaluating what matters, this episode will land. If you’re tired of pressure-based selling, it’ll feel like a breath of air. And if you’ve been curious about stepping into The Out Loud School, this will help you understand why it’s the most important thing I’m building right now. Listen in, and if something hits home, tell me what it brought up for you.

    Stop Outsourcing Your Emotions: Healing Perfectionism, People-Pleasing, and the Nervous System with Béa Albina

    What if your perfectionism isn’t a flaw — it’s a survival strategy? In this episode of Say It Out Loud, Vasavisits down with the brilliant and unfiltered Béa Albina — UCSF-trained nurse practitioner, somatic experiencing practitioner, master certified life coach, and author of End Emotional Outsourcing. Together, they unpack why so many high-achieving women are still trapped in people-pleasing cycles, how our nervous systems are wired for self-abandonment, and why “just breathe” isn’t always the answer. Béa breaks down the science behind Emotional Outsourcing — her term for the unconscious ways we hand our power, peace, and self-worth to everyone but ourselves — and how to finally come home to your body, your truth, and your voice. If you’ve ever said yes when you meant no, this episode is your wake-up call.

You’ll hear:  • Direct vs polarizing and why certainty sells  • Teleprompter and scripting secrets that still sound human  • Batching, repurposing, and repeating winners without burning out  • Mirror work, self-talk, and the neuroscience of being seen Send us Fan Mail Support the show Resources + Links 👇🏽 Join The Out Loud School Explore more of my work Read my book, Say It Out Loud Get my 4-Part Series: Make Your Own Damn Stage

    I Spoke Less. I Became More. Now I’m Ready to Talk.

    After a few months off the mic, I’m back!!!! Not to explain the gap, but to talk about what actually changed while I was living instead of broadcasting. In this episode, I share what building The Out Loud School has been teaching me about voice, leadership, and showing up in real-time. I talk about navigating grief after losing my dad, and how that cracked open new layers of honesty and softness in my life. I also get into the connection between love and money — worthiness, receiving, letting yourself be supported — and how doing that inner untangling has made life and business feel more spacious and more fun. This isn’t a “comeback,” it’s a continuation. A reminder that visibility isn’t about constant output. It’s about being rooted in who you are when you do choose to speak. If you’re in a season of becoming, integrating, or reclaiming your voice on your own timeline, this one will land. And if you want a place to practice being seen in real time, come join us inside The Out Loud School. Link in show notes.

    Why “Speak Up” Is Terrible Advice for Women in the Workplace

    Let’s get one thing straight: Women aren’t quiet because they lack confidence. They’re quiet because the culture taught them it’s safer that way. In this episode of Say It Out Loud, I’m breaking down why “just speak up” is some of the laziest, most surface-level advice given to women in corporate spaces — and why it completely misses the point. Visibility isn’t a confidence issue. It’s a culture issue. And culture is shaped by leadership, not by how loud someone speaks in a meeting. I’m diving into:  🔥 Why confidence isn’t the solution — safety is.  🔥 How broken leadership communication creates visibility gaps.  🔥 Why organizations keep trying to “fix” individuals instead of fixing culture.  🔥 The truth about psychological safety and trust inside leadership.  🔥 How The Out Loud Visibility Method™ creates space for real change. If you’re tired of the performative “speak up” rhetoric and ready for conversations that address the real problem, this one’s for you. Visibility isn’t optional. Communication shapes culture. Leadership starts with how you listen.
