Grace, Growth & Business for Women of Color with Amanda Fludd
Are you a purpose-driven woman of color ready to grow your business—and the woman behind it? Welcome to Grace, Growth, and Business—the podcast for ambitious women of color who are done hiding and ready to leverage their skills, and show up in their power.
Hosted by Amanda Fludd, a seasoned mindset coach, trauma therapist, and business strategist, this show blends practical business strategies with the emotional and psychological tools necessary to sustain your growth.
This is where women unlearn the hustle, hiding, and internalized pressure—so they can lead with confidence, set bankable goals, and develop nervous system-aligned strategy. In business. In life. In rooms they were told weren’t for them.
Each episode offers grounded insights:
- You'll learn how to build visibility and show up confidently
- Move through impostor syndrome and perfectionism
- Why your nervous system is the missing link in your business
- How to scale with integrity
If you're ready to stop sitting on your ideas, build authority, and grow with ease, this is the space for you. Strategies for grown women navigating complex spaces and complex stories as they pursue their goals.
Grace, Growth & Business for Women of Color with Amanda Fludd
The Prison of The Strong One
What if the version of you that everyone praises—the strong one, the responsible one, the achiever—was never meant to be your forever home?
In this episode, Amanda Fludd speaks directly to the high-achieving woman who feels stuck in cycles of overfunctioning, emotional exhaustion, and quiet guilt. You’ve built the life they told you to be proud of. And yet, it still feels like a cage.
Together, we unpack:
🔒 The self-built prison of survival, perfection, and self-denial
🧠 Why many women of color unknowingly shrink to stay safe or be accepted
🔥 How to stop playing small and start leading from your whole, healed self
👑 What it looks like to honor the woman you’re becoming—without waiting for more healing, permission, or applause
This isn’t just about fear. It’s about freedom.
And the courage to become who you already are.
