#010 The Power Of Friendship // Overcoming The Past and Finding Your People //
In this episode, we dive deep into taking control of your life and focusing on what truly matters within your immediate circle. We discuss the challenges of raising children in today’s world, the influence of outside factors, and why homeschooling is a serious consideration for our daughter’s early years.
Brittany opens up about her personal battle with bullying throughout school and the emotional scars it left behind. She shares her struggles in trusting other women—until the right ones came into her life and completely changed her perspective. Now, in her early 30s, she’s built strong, meaningful friendships with incredible women like Jamie, Whitney, Dori, and Sarah, and she attributes much of this growth to her love for the outdoors and the people it has brought into her life.
She also touches on a traumatic childhood brain injury that played a role in the bullying she endured, but also how it shaped her deep connection to nature—where she finds true peace. This leads us into a larger conversation on personal growth, self-awareness, and accountability—acknowledging bad habits, negative attitudes, and emotional hurdles while working to become better as spouses, parents, friends, and business owners.
We reflect on the importance of setting our children up for success, leading by example, and teaching them resilience, hard work, and a positive mindset. Brittany wraps up by sharing how stepping away from her longtime passion, barrel racing, made room for even greater things in her life—more time in the outdoors, deep friendships, a flourishing business, and most importantly, family.
This episode is raw, real, and full of perspective on growth, friendship, parenting, and overcoming adversity. We hope you enjoy it!
