This week I got to laugh, learn, and be totally inspired by someone I’m lucky to call both a brilliant guest and a dear friend: Cathey Armillas. 🙌

Earlier this week, Cathey told me she felt inspired by my presentation... and today, it’s my turn. Because in our convo, she dropped wisdom so good, it should come with a mic and a standing ovation. 🎤👏

We talked about:
💡 Why authenticity is your superpower
🔥 How to stand out without selling out
😂 And of course… the role of LAUGHTER in creating real human connection (spoiler: it’s not optional—it’s oxygen)

This episode is a joybomb 💣 and a truth serum all in one.
