From Living Small to Empowering Others: My Journey to Building a Business Rooted in Lifting Others Up

As women, we’re often told to be small, to play it safe, and to avoid making waves. It’s a narrative that holds so many of us back from realizing our full potential. For most of my life, I followed that story—feeling like I didn’t quite fit into that mold. But when I started Sweet Potato Social, I discovered something incredibly powerful: living big is not only possible, it’s necessary. I spent so many years suppressing my voice, but when I finally stepped into my true self and purpose, I found the courage to break free. I’m here to tell you, if you feel the call to stop playing small, it’s time to step into your own magic.

Growing up, I saw so many people around me playing by the rules, playing it safe, and accepting that “this is just how things are.” I saw the women around me holding back, keeping quiet, not fully embracing their strength. They believed that things weren’t supposed to be hard—that if something felt too difficult, it was a sign to walk away. I didn’t fit into this mold. Deep down, I felt there was more for me, something bigger than the “safe” life that was expected. But for years, I kept quiet about my dreams and let the fear of judgment and failure shape my decisions.


When I started Sweet Potato Social, it wasn’t just about creating a business—it was about creating freedom for myself and for others. It was about breaking through the limitations I had placed on myself. I had spent so many years believing that hard work, ambition, and success were meant for other people, not for me. But I’ve learned that the most meaningful work comes when we embrace our uniqueness. At Sweet Potato Social, my mission became clear: to help other women build businesses that align with their purpose, embrace their magic, and share their stories with the world.

One of the most transformative things I’ve experienced is the power of vulnerability. By sharing my struggles—my self-doubt, my fears, my mistakes—I’ve created a space where other women feel safe to share their own. And it’s in that shared vulnerability that we truly empower one another. I’ve seen firsthand how embracing your struggles can turn them into fuel for growth. At Sweet Potato Social, it’s not just about helping women grow their businesses—it’s about helping them realize their power. It’s about standing in our truth and lifting each other up, even when the world tries to tell us to stay small.


The more I help others, the more I learn about myself. Each woman I work with has reminded me that we are not meant to live small lives. Through lifting them up, I have rediscovered my own power, purpose, and magic. The more we embrace our own unique journeys, the more we see how we can create a ripple effect of empowerment and change. Helping others succeed has not only transformed their lives—it’s transformed mine too.


If you’ve ever felt like you’re meant for more, or like your magic is just waiting to be unleashed, I want you to know that you’re not alone. I’ve been there too—stuck in self-doubt, unsure of what was possible. But I promise you, when you embrace your full potential and step into your power, amazing things will happen. Your story is worth sharing, your voice is meant to be heard, and your business is meant to thrive.


So if you’re ready to stop living small, if you’re ready to step into your own magic and make a real impact, I’m here to help. You don’t have to do it alone. Together, we’ll build the business and life you’ve always dreamed of.
