THE PODCAST
The Shiny
Shit Show.
Real talk with women who are doing the work and telling the truth about what that actually looks like. Business, politics, parenting, marriage, identity - the conversations most people skip because they are messy or inconvenient.
LISTEN ON
ABOUT THE SHOW
Where strategy meets sarcasm and the highlight reel meets honesty.
The Shiny Shit Show is a podcast for women who are showing up even when life is messy as hell. Each episode dives into the conversations most people will not touch - about power, leadership, identity, and how to stand out without selling out.
"This is the place where real talk lives. Not the version of the story you polish before you tell it. The actual one."
No performance. No highlights only reel. Just women doing real things talking honestly about what it takes - and what it costs.

WHAT YOU WILL HEAR
No performance.
No polish. Just real.
The conversations most people will not start
Power, money, identity, the cost of ambition, what marriage actually looks like when you are both building something, what motherhood costs you that nobody names out loud. These conversations happen here.
Strategy without the sanitized version
Real talk about what is actually working in business and visibility - not the version that has been run through marketing first. The tactics, the mistakes, the pivots, and the honest assessments.
Women who are doing it - not just talking about it
Guests who have actual skin in the game. Not just experts who consult from a distance. The ones who are in it, building it, living it, and willing to say what it actually looks like.
BE A GUEST
Have a story worth telling?
The Shiny Shit Show is looking for women who are doing real things and willing to talk about them honestly. Not the version where everything worked out and the lesson is clean. The real version - including the parts that were hard, the decisions that cost something, and the outcomes that surprised you.
If that is you, reach out. The only requirement is that you actually have something worth saying and you are willing to say it without the performance.
