Defining success for YOU, ADHD as a superpower, the F word, & Leaving the "what ifs" behind - with Venessa Kaufman

Today I'm joined by my dear friend Venessa Kaufman, also known as @wetheclassy on IG. This powerhouse is a finance broker turned fashion blogger & influencer turned social media app founder where she is gonna make that space SO MUCH BETTER for creators and consumers (The F Word)!!

starting off with.... Venessa's definition of success

10 (ish?)- the power of pivots and how society has changed in that regard

15:45 (ish) - how we shame ourselves unnecessarily (and just like you're intrigued and impressed by someone's career that sounds like Greek to you - they likely feel the same about what you do!)

16:30 - taking responsibility when you (unintentionally or otherwise) project onto others and NOT taking it personally when others do that to you 17:30 - you are not resposible for soiety's stigmas

18:20 - how leaning into your truth gives PERMISSION to those around you to do the same for themselves

19:15 - your kids are watching more than you realize...what are you showing them?

19:41 - Venessa shares something she's never shared before!

22:30 - lead with your humanness first. (and how that allows human > AI)

23:25 - how ADHD (and being 100% yourself) is a superpower

25:02 - how social media has evolved (and not for the better), esp as a creator and influencer

26:12 - trusting your intuition 27:50 - WTF is The F Word??

30:02 - how the current social media algorithms CHOOSE your reality for you without you realizing it

31 (ish) - how it can (and WILL) be better with the F Word

32:20 - utilizing your experience and your resourcefulness to leverage any gaps (aka don't let a lack of knowledge in one area stop you from doing the thing)

33:47 - Venessa's experience raising funding as a female founder (including some shocking statistics)

38 (ish) - how we are only limited by our own fears...

38 (ish) - how to get over your fears...

(So much more in here that I don't even know how to put into words...)

46:15 - Venessa shares a side of her humanness that many don't know (hint: it has to do with Usain Bolt...)

...I...I'm gonna leave the show notes at that, but these don't even TOUCH the amount of gold in this epsiode, so just listen for yourself, fam! Love y'all.
