Stop Playing Small, Darling w/ Emma Grede

About this episode

Emma Grede discusses the importance of self-care and ambition in personal growth.

So much of what you need can be found within, but ambition has to find you working. Just ask Emma Grede, one of today's most influential and highly accomplished self-made women. Seemingly born rogue and unbothered by the rules, she and Sarah Jakes Roberts peel back the layers of how an East London upbringing taught her to move in truth, no matter the room. And let's not romanticize the process, sis. You'll face unenjoyable work, self-limiting beliefs that aren't yours, and emotions that take advantage of your patterns. But our girl Emma made it clear. It's the prerogative of a woman to look after herself. So start where it matters most—start with yourself and pre-order a copy of her book today! Learn more about your ad choices.
