You are stronger than you think.
The She Prevails Podcast is about what it really takes to keep going when life gets heavy. Training for races, raising kids, building a business — it’s messy, exhausting, and sometimes you want to quit. But there’s power in pushing through. I share the honest stories and lessons I’m learning as I fight for my own strength and keep showing up. Sometimes it’s just me, sometimes it’s guests who’ve faced hard things and refused to stop. It’s raw, real, and built to remind you: you’re stronger than you think.
Ep #38: F*ck What People Think
Your goals are meant for you; no one else. No one gets to tell you what you can and can't do. No one gets to tell you that your goals and your dreams are wrong. They are yours! However, people's opinions can still creep into our minds as we strive towards the next level or bettering our lives. In today's episode, I talk about why we do that and a few things you can do to overcome the obstacle. Fuck what people think.
Ep #37: How to Overcome Your Excuses

All you need is one thing, one small win to get the momentum rolling. If you can overcome your excuse once, you can do it again and again.
Ep #36: Reflect on Your Journey to Find Your Strength
How often do you take time to sit back and reflect on what you have been through or what you have accomplished? Sometimes we avoid revisiting painful moments. However, there is so much to be learned by looking at what you went through, lessons you've learned and progress you've made. Reflecting allows you to give yourself the credit you earned and gives you permission to revisit difficult and painful emotions without carrying negativity along with it. Most importantly, it reminds you of your strength. In today's episode, I dive into the benefits of reflecting on your journey and how you can use your lessons to propel you forward to attack any goal you desire.
