Listen, if you're a female executive who just listened to another incredible transformation story on Rice Me Issues and thought "That's amazing... but could I actually do that?"

Stop right there.

That little voice whispering you're not good enough? It's lying.

Here's the thing every single guest Baz Porter interviews on this show started exactly where you are right now. Struggling with self-worth. Questioning their abilities. Wondering if they had what it takes.

But here's what separates the women who break through from those who stay stuck: they take action on their inner game FIRST.

That's why Bass created something special just for high-achieving women like you who are tired of playing small despite their success.

It's a FREE 5-Day Meditation Series designed specifically for female executives who are ready to silence that inner critic once and for all.

No fluff. No generic affirmations. Just proven techniques that work for busy, ambitious women who need results fast.

Ready to finally feel as confident on the inside as you appear on the outside?
