This was supposed to be our 50th episode celebration... but life had other plans. So, we're re-releasing our most popular episode ever: a powerful conversation with badass coach Kari Ginsburg .

Kari just dropped her book, "Hey Glitterbomb!: A No-BS Guide to Being Too Much, Taking Up Space, and Loving The Legacy You Create," and this episode hits even harder now. We talk about coaching, politics, community, and what it really means to take up space and lead with purpose.

Let’s dive back in.

In this conversation, host Raven O'Neal and guest Kari Ginsburg discuss the intersection of coaching, politics, and community building.

Kari emphasizes the importance of supporting women in navigating political landscapes, especially during times of instability. The dialogue explores how individuals can find focus in their activism, the significance of creating safe and accountable community spaces, and practical strategies for personal growth and political engagement.

Kari shares insights on knowing when to walk away from unproductive environments and the power of language in shaping our experiences and decisions.
