32 | Breaking Free from Fear and Limiting Feedback: Walking in Freedom on Stage and in Life (interview with Karen Walker - part 1)
Have you ever received feedback that made you want to shrink instead of grow? I have and in this conversation with Karen Walker I get honest about what happens when critique collides with truth. We talk about the difference between “safe” language and naming what’s real, how words from authority figures shaped our younger selves, and why speaking from the place of lived experience matters more than fitting into someone else’s checklist. If you want to stop editing your voice to fit someone else’s comfort and start using your story to free other people, this episode is for you.
You don’t need to shrink to be heard, your honest words are the ones that set people free.
Topics I Cover:
- How a teacher’s offhand comment can shape a lifetime of decisions.
- Why some feedback is useful—and why some feedback is actually a prompt to reject it.
- What it looks like to be a pursuer of truth rather than a follower of polite advice.
- The idea of teaching teen girls about identity and confidence
- How your signature experiences can become multiple talks/workshops
- Practical reframes: “Consider the source,” and how to keep your power when critique lands.
