S1E8: Unscripted: A Woman's Living Prayer — Stands With A Fist

An Unscripted Woman Podcast

This episode unpacks my own story of competition, and explores how it tends to get a bad rap among women. It also looks at how our competitive spirit (ambition, drive, intensity, desire) can be a thin and tricky line to walk as women — triggering us to dampen, dumb down, or diminish ("play small" or "shrink") what is sometimes our greatest strength. This is my story of discovering how I was participating in my own shrinkage in this regard...and in how healing that shame and more fully owning the entirety of who I am is helping me to not only be more compassionate with myself — but also is greatly diminishing my experiences of judgement and disconnect from others.
