In this second part of our Self-Allyship Series, I’m taking you inside a moment that caught me off guard—when a woman in the audience pushed back against what I teach. She challenged the idea that we should be our first and strongest allies.

She believed that external allyship—especially from men in power—was the key to her success.
And honestly? I didn’t argue with her.
Because I’ve been her.
Many of us have.

In this episode of Rooted in Your Confidence, we’re talking about:

• Why women in male-dominated industries are conditioned to seek safety through approval
• The emotional weight of waiting to be chosen, backed, or spoken up for
• How we shrink, freeze, or perform just to feel safe in rooms not built for us
• What it looks like to shift back into your power—and stand firm in your own truth

You’ll also learn:

• Where the idea of needing permission comes from (and how it lives in our nervous systems)
• Why self-allyship isn’t about rejecting help—but about no longer depending on it
• How to stop defending systems that were never built with your voice in mind

This one is deep. Emotional. Liberating.
And it’s for any woman who’s ever wondered, “Why am I still waiting for someone to choose me?”
