Welcome back to the Vosbebade Podcast. All right, I've been a guest on quite a few podcasts and I have never ever had the response from a podcast that I had from this one that I'm sharing with you. So we've had James Wenmore on this

0:14.4

podcast quite a few times. I'm sure you've listened to some of his episodes. He actually invited me onto his

0:19.5

podcast and to say we went deep is an understatement. We actually get into my entire story and really go deep on the Boss Babe transition that happened a couple years ago when Danielle stepped out.

0:35.1

So we go deep and it was in a way I've not really spoken about before. It wasn't planned.

0:40.8

It was really, he said, can we just go where this goes? I was like, sure, and we just went there. And I'm glad we did because I really do feel like a strong message came out of it. And if I can help anyone to shortcut what I went through, I would

0:56.6

love to do that. So as I was speaking, that's really what I had in my mind is, let me be as completely

1:02.2

1:14.5

So that's what we did.

1:15.8

1:21.9

because I really wanted all of you to be able to hear it.

1:25.4

And there's quite a few themes that we go into. I will say there is a trigger warning around traumatic birth.

1:46.8

when you've been on this magic carpet ride of more without really stopping to ask yourself, when is enough enough?

1:55.0

Like, do I have everything I need?

1:58.0

Okay, why am I still chasing like I don't?

2:01.0

And for me, I just didn't ever take that pause. It was not like I was always chasing more because I wanted more because

2:08.4

quite honestly that's not really me and my personality. It was that I just didn't stop to ask myself that question. I didn't stop to pause. My entire life had been go go go go. I was so used to being on the go that it just felt like I had to keep going.

2:25.4

There was a destination to get to.

2:27.3
