Episode 16: No Apologies: Believing in Yourself When No One Else Does

Ever wonder why your biggest dreams sometimes feel like your loneliest journey?

In this heartfelt episode, we open up about the emotional side of entrepreneurship—the frustration, the self-doubt, and the sting of feeling unsupported by those closest to you. When friends don’t listen to your podcast or family scrolls past your social posts, it’s easy to feel invisible or misunderstood. But what if their silence isn’t rejection? What if it’s simply a reflection of their lens, not your worth?

That’s where Mel Robbins' concept of Let Them comes in—and it changed everything for us.

We also share an incredible, unexpected moment that reminded us to keep going. At just the right time, we met Cheryl “Action” Jackson, the powerhouse founder of Minnie’s Food Pantry. Her story—rooted in faith, perseverance, and turning pain into purpose—was exactly the message we needed. Cheryl's passion for giving back, her unshakable belief in herself, and her ability to rise above doubt reminded us that the entrepreneurial grind isn’t just about the hustle. It’s about impact. And that’s what makes it all worth it.

This episode is for every woman who’s felt alone, unheard, or tempted to quit. We talk about how to protect your energy, block out negativity, and surround yourself with a tribe of like-minded women who understand the vision—even if they’re not your relatives or childhood friends.

Because your dream isn’t too big. You’re not too much. And you don’t need to apologize for wanting more.

Are you willing to keep going, even when it feels like no one’s clapping?
