What happens when you stop waiting for the “right time” and start saying yes to the opportunities that light you up, even if they terrify you?

In this episode, I sit down with the powerhouse that is Dana Ayers, author, speaker, decorated veteran, former White House staffer, and someone who has made a career of walking straight into the unknown and discovering just how capable she really is.

From her first internship at the White House, on 9/11, no less, to deployments overseas and even her surprising side gig in a D.C. cover band, Dana shares how following the breadcrumbs (no matter how small) has led to some of the biggest, boldest adventures of her life.

We talk about:

  • Why fear is not the enemy, and how it can actually lead you home
  • How to build confidence by doing the uncomfortable
  • Her hilarious journey from strategic comms to singing onstage
  • What it really means to live authentically and chase your dream life
  • And how to stop talking yourself out of the very thing you’re meant to do

This episode is part story, part pep talk, and full permission slip to get out of your own way and go after the life you were meant to live.

If you’ve ever found yourself stuck in indecision, overwhelmed by what people might think, or too afraid to take the leap, this conversation is exactly what you need to hear.

Press play and let Dana’s journey remind you just how powerful (and fun!) life can be when you dare to go for it.
