If you’re ready to stop playing small, rewire your mindset, and take bold action toward the life you actually want, this podcast is for you.
Hosted by Angela and Sami, a mother-daughter duo with a passion for personal growth, this show is all about real talk and real results. We bring two perspectives, two generations, and one shared mission: to empower you to harness fear, build resilience, and create lasting confidence. Whether you're navigating big life changes, pursuing a dream, or just trying to feel more like yourself again, we’re here to remind you: you are capable of so much more than you think.
Expect a mix of inspiring solo episodes, powerful guest interviews, and candid conversations where we don’t hold back. We tackle topics like overcoming self-doubt, cultivating courage, redefining success, and embracing authenticity—because let’s be honest, trying to fit into someone else’s version of success is exhausting.
Through humor, honesty, and hard-earned wisdom, we tackle topics like overcoming self-doubt, cultivating courage, redefining success, and embracing authenticity. No more waiting for the “perfect” moment. No more second-guessing yourself. It’s time to step fully into your purpose and live a life that feels aligned, fulfilling, and freaking awesome.

Let’s do this—because life is too short to settle for anything less than freaking awesome.

EP159 How to Step Into Leadership Before You Feel Ready
👉 Have you ever been given an opportunity that felt bigger than you?
👉 Do you feel like you need more experience, more confidence, or more skills before you can lead?
👉 What if stepping up before you're "ready" is actually the secret to success?
In this episode of Be Freaking Awesome, we sit down with Kash Rocheleau, CEO of Icon Foods, who went from Executive Assistant to CFO to CEO in just a few years—long before she thought she was ready. We break down:
- How to handle big career transitions (even when they come sooner than expected)
- Why imposter syndrome is lying to you—and how to silence it
- The one mindset shift that helped Kash step into leadership with confidence
- How to fail forward and learn from mistakes instead of fearing them
- The changing landscape of leadership—and what it means for the next generation
Whether you're an aspiring leader, a business owner, or someone who simply wants to stop holding yourself back, this episode will challenge you to step into your potential NOW, not later.
