58: What If the Life You’re Waiting For Is Already Happening? | Peace Is Every Step by Thich Nhat Hanh – Badass Books and Besties
“The only thing that was even wrong with me was my belief that there was something wrong with me” – Untamed by Glennon Doyle
Introduction
As you may remember from a previous episode (Episode 8: Untamed by Glennon Doyle Mini Summary & Review), I love Glennon Doyle’s book Untamed. She truly exposes the truth about how women need to step into their inner goddess and, as she refers to it, being a goddamn cheetah. It’s such an empowering book about how to truly become a fucking badass woman.
I also LOVE this quote from Maya Angelou:
“Pursue the things you love doing, and then do them so well that people can’t take their eyes off you.” – Maya Angelou
What a beautiful reminder to keep SHINING on, like the badass you are. We may often forget how fucking incredible we are, and I want you to know – I struggle with it too. I have dealt with the narrative inside my head that screams: You are not good enough. You are not worthy. You are worthless.
Fuck that inner subconscious voice. Let me remind you, and myself – you are SO worthy. Repeat after me: Even though I may think these negative thoughts about myself, I deeply and completely love myself. I choose myself and I always will. I am worthy and I open myself up to receiving all of the success and abundance that I desire. I am here for MORE and I am making AMAZING things happen in my life. I own my inner goddess. I am a badass. I am enough.
Hell yeah, sister, I love it!!
Interview with Emily Brandenburg
So – now for today’s episode. I have an incredible interview to share with you! Emily Brandenburg is such a badass female – I met her through a mutual friend in the Female Entrepreneur Association, which is Carrie Green’s membership (absolutely LOVE her). Emily owns EB Design Agency and her main focus is to help badass female businesses grow to their FULL potential. You will absolutely fall in love with her spirit and tenacity…and her ability to drop the F bomb with ease.
In this episode, you’ll learn about her journey living on the road – where she’s traveled to, how her experiences have helped her blossom into the woman she is today, and how she can take you and your business to the next level.
You’ll hear the following takeaways:
- How you can own your inner badassness by living life on YOUR terms
- Why traveling can change your life for the better (but also have its fearful moments)
- How to create new opportunities for yourself and the benefits you’ll enjoy
- Overcoming adversity helps you become stronger and appreciate life’s gifts
- Smashing the patriarchy is an essential task we must do for the women of our future
- Supporting women & helping them express their authentic selves is how we will change the world.
As Emily says, “People are going to judge you anyways, might as well give them a good show!”
I am SO grateful to have had the opportunity to interview Emily! She is such a badass female and I hope you’ll follow her journey on Instagram, on Facebook, and on her website at EB Design Agency.
