Glitter, Grit, and Growth is thrilled to be a part of this year’s Podcasthon, a one-week virtual event where podcasters from around the world use their voices to highlight a non-profit organization of choice. GGG selected TeamWomen, an organization near and dear to Shelley’s heart. Join us for a fantastic conversation with the Executive Director of TeamWomen, Katy Burke!
This podcast is for you if you believe that:
● Embracing a growth mindset and being brave enough to suck at something new is a must.
● Fear should be acknowledged but shouldn’t stop you from doing epic shit!
● It should be a “No” unless it’s a “Hell Yes!”
● There’s more than enough for everyone.
● Your energy will tell you where to go next. Listen and trust the process.
● People are so much more than titles and the boxes others put them in.
