The REAL-WORLD FEMINIST® Podcast

I’m Michelle Kinsman.  I’ve been ambitious to succeed since birth. When I finally got my foot in the door at the company of my dreams, I used my smarts, my unrelenting drive, and my entrepreneurial spirit to work my way from administrative assistant to top executive leader.

I’ve never settled for being mediocre or phoning it in, and neither should you. You weren’t put on this earth to settle for an easy middle management existence. You’re here to show up as the freaking badass leader you have the potential to be.

I’m here to help you with practical advice to help YOU unleash the badass leader within.

Because I firmly believe that as women rise to leadership positions in their industries, the world will change.

I’m here to do my part to make it happen.

If you’re with me, you know what to do. Hit subscribe, tune in and let’s get after it, Real-World Feminists!

That...

Sometimes, we need a little emotional pick-me-up. We’re worried or stressed out, and we just can’t seem to calm down our feverish thoughts.

You can try meditation, yoga, prayer, or other mindfulness practices. But, if you’re like me—one of those people who wonders “how long do I need to sit in this silence”...
