In this powerful episode of the Be Who You Came To Be podcast, Tara Renze sits down with the magnetic and refreshingly real Giselle Ugarte—renowned online performance coach, speaker, and unapologetic advocate for authenticity on social media. Together, they unravel the complex relationship we have with digital platforms, diving deep into how fear, comparison, and outdated narratives prevent us from showing up as our truest selves online.

She’s known for her content-accelerating keynotes and programming designed to teach entrepreneurs, executives and everyday people to have a healthy relationship with social media, develop unshakable confidence on video and experience explosive growth, online and especially off.

She approaches marketing from the lens of personal development, humanizing the ways we show up in business, online and especially off, with time and energy setting tactics, captivating communication techniques and tangible boundary-setting tools.
WITH A COLLECTIVE FOLLOWING OF OVER 500,000 FOLLOWERS, GISELLE HAS BEEN RECOGNIZED BY TIKTOK AS ONE OF THE TOP 100 WOMEN TO WATCH.
