| 0:00.0 | Welcome to The Live Out Loud Show. I'm your host, Brooke Thomas, and I am so excited for you to listen in on this episode today. |
| 0:11.1 | I have been having so many conversations with women that don't realize what is silently stealing their success. |
| 0:18.7 | And there's two main things that I'm seeing. And I want to share |
| 0:21.4 | it with you today because I believe that the women I'm speaking to what I'm hearing in the |
| 0:27.5 | atmosphere, they don't even realize it. And it's not a lack of strategy and it's not a lack of |
| 0:34.3 | opportunity. Two things that I'm seeing. Are you ready? Here we go. Number one, regret. |
| 0:43.6 | And number two, worrying about what other people think. Now, I'm going to go deeper into this, |
| 0:49.2 | but I just want to tell you right now, these are the two things I'm seeing all the time, |

| 1:24.9 | this. They do not waste time or energy looking back in regret and they don't |
| 1:30.8 | waste time worrying about what others think. Now, I know that sounds simple and basic and you're |
| 1:35.1 | like, Brooke, I already know that. But let me just take you a little bit deeper into what I'm |
| 1:38.8 | talking about and give you a different perspective. But here's the other secret. |
| 1:44.1 | They also surround themselves with women who call them higher. Women who speak. and give you a different perspective. But here's the other secret. |
| 1:47.3 | They also surround themselves with women who call them higher. |
| 1:52.1 | Women who speak life, open doors, share ideas, and want to see them win. |
