When Essence Revealed earned her graduate degree from a top university she worked multiple jobs, but still had trouble making ends meet. So she became a stripper—working in corporate America during the day and dancing for corporate execs at night. After 12 years, she left stripping behind to become a world renowned burlesque performer and a coach for women healing from sexual abuse.  Join Dawn and Essence, as we explore Manhattan strip clubs, healing from sexual trauma, learning to be comfortable in  one's sex and sexuality, and unapologetically living life on one's own terms. We also discuss the recent controversy with TI and offer life lessons for every woman.  Note From the Stiletto Revolution #17: Fight for Your Possibilities and Not Your Limitations.

Our experiences are shaped by the different lenses we see them through. Navigating our experiences can be difficult, but we just need the right tools to make the journey rewarding. We have to learn to be okay in our skin and accept ourselves for who we really are. Authenticity sets you free from your insecurity and allows you to truly appreciate your success.  Listen in today and learn how to accept and love yourself regardless of what others may think with Steve Kidd and Essence Revealed on today's episode of Thriving Entrepreneur.

Why the Rubashkin miracle is so significant? The post Vayigash/Teves – Our Essence Revealed appeared first on Maayon Yisroel.

Our guest on this episode of the Early Accountability Podcast is Essence Revealed, a performer, former stripper, former teacher, former real estate agent, and author. Essence has taken all of the lessons she has learned about herself and about life and has written a book and accompanying course to help other women win in their own lives. She had to get over the things that were holding her back in her performing career and she is still working through issues with depression with her therapist. She believes that we are worthy just because we are here on earth. We should take that to heart and be confident, always speaking to ourselves positively and truthfully. One of her most beneficial daily practices is not reaching for her phone as soon as she wakes up, but rather taking that time to focus on herself and prepare for the day.
