Reclaiming Your Voice & Owning Your Story with Jen Rogers
Ever catch yourself saying, “I’m just a mom,” or “I’m just trying to figure things out”? Friend, it’s time to drop just and reclaim your story.
In this powerful episode, I sit down with podcast coach and voice-finder Jen Rogers — who just so happens to be my coach — to talk about the moment she lost her voice, how she found it again, and why your story is your superpower. If you’ve ever felt like your voice doesn’t matter or your story isn’t big enough, this conversation is your wake-up call.
What You’ll Hear:
- Why women tend to minimize themselves with words like “just,” “but,” and “sorry”
- Jen’s unforgettable story of losing — and reclaiming — her voice
- How to uncover mic-drop moments in your everyday life
- A sneak peek into how podcasting can be a powerful way to own your story
