Ready to stop waiting for permission and start building the life you keep sketching in the margins? I sit down with the incomparable Loren Lahav—coach, speaker, author, and champion for women’s voices—to unpack what it really takes to speak up, take risks, and build a community that won’t let you shrink.
Loren brings 30+ years of personal development wisdom down to earth with stories you’ll feel in your bones: rescuing metal butterflies in a white suit and gifting them around town, saying yes to a high-stakes studio event and figuring it out under pressure, and choosing her own platform after years of leading inside massive programs. Her lens is simple and powerful: identity, rituals, boundaries, and tribe. We explore how daily I am statements, a five-minute ritual stack, and courageous noes create the conditions for an authentic yes. If you’ve wrestled with worthiness, Lauren flips the script—worth isn’t something you earn; it’s something you claim.
We also talk about community as a force multiplier. Surrounding yourself with women who act, not just talk, changes what you believe is possible. You’ll hear how aligned rooms, honest feedback, and shared standards speed up growth. We dig into leaving the comfort of comparison, asking boldly for what you want, and using triggers as teachers. And if you’ve ever tried to be a copy of your mentor, Lauren shows how to honor your influences while bringing your own flavor to the stage.
This is a warm, practical, and energizing listen for anyone standing at a crossroads: post-transition, or simply ready to step into more. Press play for real talk, usable tools, and a reminder you can carry anywhere: don’t let your music die inside you. If this conversation moved you, subscribe, share it with a friend who needs it, and leave a quick review so more women can find the show and rise into their power. Your next level is already waiting. Now go claim it.
