Summary

Episode 130: A solo episode is long overdue so Natalie is jumping on the mic to fill The Real Reel community in on what’s been happening in her personal and work life. With her business, Rella, ramping up to launch in November, the stress has been building and Natalie opens up about the challenges she has been facing both emotionally and physically. It has been weighing on her heart to speak about her personal experience with imposter syndrome and share her story about constantly being underestimated as a woman in a male-dominated program in University. Flash forward— she graduated and none of her male counterparts that doubted her did! At 25, to say Natalie has accomplished a lot would be an understatement, but even with great amounts of success she still faces imposter syndrome regularly and has to work daily on building confidence. If you can relate to feeling like you don’t belong or find yourself constantly doubting your abilities, you’re not alone. This episode offers some strategies and guidance to quiet the inner critic and start growing your confidence. Thank you so much for being a part of our podcast community!

0:16.1	entrepreneurs, content creators, and anyone who inspires me and may inspire you too.
0:20.9	I'm your host Natalie Barboo and let's get into it. Hello everybody and welcome back to the Real Rail Podcast. Today's episode is a solo
0:37.0	episode and I am so excited because I haven't done a solo episode in quite some time
0:41.8	and I know that these are some of your favorites. I feel like I always
0:45.6	get the most DMs, the most story re shares, the most reviews on solo episodes, so I'm thinking of implementing them around once a month
0:54.8	so let me know on Instagram if that's what you would like let me know in the reviews
0:58.8	DM me whatever it is just tell me if you like the solo episodes or not. I am actually

1:09.2	news I actually was able to speak at an entrepreneurship class here at UNC, which is absolutely insane because I am only a few years out of college.
1:19.0	If you didn't know, I also spent a lot of time here at UNC.
1:22.0	I had a lot of friends that went here. I was
1:23.9	dating someone that had gone to UNC and NC State is only 30 minutes away
1:27.9	from UNC, so I spent so much time here. So it was just weird coming here and

1:34.6	literally three years out of college.
1:36.2	So I felt like I was their age.
1:38.4	I gave a presentation about Rella, the power of social media, and then I gave them an assignment to become the first ever,
1:45.2	first ever beta testers of Rela. So when Rela makes it big, when Rela is like a huge
