Description

I always say it but truly, I'm so excited to kick off a brand-new series here on The Moxie Podcast! This month, we're going a bit behind the scenes to explore the heart and hustle behind why so many of us start podcasts – and I couldn't think of a better way to start than with two incredible women, Mandy and Brittany from the Empowered Podcast. These two are all about creating real, raw conversations, and I know you're going to love hearing their story because those are the conversations we hold here!

 

You'll hear us laugh, get a little deep, and even celebrate the beauty of the world we are building in these spaces. I'm so excited for you to listen in and feel the energy of these two amazing women who are truly living out their purpose.



Mandy shares how a long-held dream turned into reality, creating a platform where meaningful conversations take place and the great role that her meeting with Brittany played in them eventually starting a podcast together.

 

Mandy and Brittany discuss their personal backgrounds and how their shared experiences influenced the podcast's direction, especially the themes that the podcast runs under.

 

During our conversation, Mandy and Brittany opened up about the unexpected topics that have come up in their podcast – things they didn't even anticipate but are so important to their listeners. Over time, their podcast has evolved to cover a wide range of subjects, reflecting just how diverse and complex the experiences of their audience truly are. We also touched on the importance of vulnerability and how creating a safe space for listeners to share their stories is at the heart of what we do.

 

This is a beautiful conversation of three women on how each of us has been shaped differently by our family backgrounds. Mandy shared what it was like moving from a small town and the culture shock that came with it. Brittany talked about growing up in a small town in South Carolina, where tough conversations were often avoided. Despite our different backgrounds, we're all working to create a supportive community where people can openly share their experiences without fear of judgment.

 

Aligning your podcast content with your personal values is crucial and it shapes the community you build. Mandy and Brittany open up about their four core values and explain why it's vital to be intentional and consistent in living by them. I also share my own experience of the contrast of running a company without/with clear values and how that has transformed our work and impact.

 

This episode will give you the courage to have those tough, honest conversations because that is what will help you grow. So, grab your favorite drink, get comfy, and join us! Also, feel free to connect with us via the links below. We would love to hear from you!
