Real talk real advice real fun!

Highly recommend this for anyone looking to cut the fluff and get real advice and have fun. Erica knows her stuff and brings an authenticity to this pod that feels like you are sitting in with a girlfriend.

Must listen!

Helpful advice at the right time

I listened to the conversation with Taniel Strydom and laughed out loud when she talked about telling ourselves a better lie. For whatever reason, hearing it put that waymade the process of repatterning my thoughts feel more accessible. As a mother myself, I’m grateful for any advice that creates entry points for a deeper connection with my little one.

Real talk

I really appreciate Erica’s vulnerability and honesty. There are so many podcasts geared toward female entrepreneurs and leadership through that lens. Thankful that she’s focused on exec women / women in leadership roles in organizations. While the advice perhaps could be the same, the context difference does matter a lot. Thanks for producing the show!
