    You’re tuning into The Monster Theory Podcast, Episode #12.You know, I’ve always been extraordinarily honest about my life. It’s something that I’ve shared frequently in many venues – whether it’s on TV, radio, podcasts, social media – I mean I just open up because here’s the thing:I believe that when you tell your own story…when you are willing to be open and honest and vulnerable and not give a hoot about what people think…then you own and earn the power to tell that story and more importantly, you de-power other people from telling the story that they want to tell about you.And so, I have to tell you that this interview I recently did on a podcast called True Conversations is one of the first times that I really, really share the story behind the story. My journey about my life’s mission, both in my work with Saving Promise – the nonprofit I founded that’s inspired by five generations of domestic violence in my family including my daughter’s little girl named Promise – and the story that ultimately inspired The Monster Theory which I believe is my life’s mission as well: to empower and inspire women to find their voice, their vision, their passion, purpose and ultimately, their power.You know, I didn’t even really prepare a script for this introduction nor did I prepare a script for the interview because I wanted to be real…I wanted to be open…I wanted to be vulnerable…I wanted to be honest about everything. So I invite you to take a listen, take a lesson, and allow my story to empower and inspire you.And even if you walk away from it and you’ve just enjoyed listening to it, it is always my intention to use my story, my voice, and my influence to serve other women. So without further ado, let’s dive in!

    You’re tuning into The Monster Theory Podcast, Episode #11.On today’s episode, I’m opening up my heart to you about an experience I had with a group of women that made me realize just how grateful I am to be honest and real and open and…. VULNERABLE!!This is the topic of discussion today… Why Being Vulnerable Can Make You More Likeable…. And I don’t say that in a way to be self serving… I say it because being vulnerable is the only way anyone of us should be… but we can only be that way if we truly understand the meaning behind that word that so many of us are ashamed to embrace.Ashamed to admit. And more importantly, ashamed to belong… I once wore that shame but life as it happened to me broke down that shame in ways that made me cling to vulnerability. I’m going to be talking about that story and how it moved a group of women to their own state of being vulnerable. I’m opening my heart, my head and my honesty to you today… about vulnerable… so let’s get right to it!!!
