PODCAST by SCOUT

In this salon-style episode of PODCAST by SCOUT, Gabrielle Scout sits down with Alexandra Cadiz — designer, musician and co-founder of lighting design brand CERAMICAH — for a raw, electric conversation about what it actually takes to stop performing palatability and start living as the fullest version of yourself.What began as an instant digital connection — "the same person in different fonts" — unfolds into a deeply honest dialogue on the emotional architecture of self-trust, the shame women carry around being multidimensional, and why the smallest moments of self-betrayal are the ones that cost us the most.Topics explored in this episode include:Why self-trust is built in micro-moments — not grand gestures — and how choosing freedom over shame in the smallest daily decisions rewires your entire nervous systemThe difference between self-confidence and self-worth, and why you can have sky-high belief in your abilities while still struggling to receive love, support, and abundanceWhat it means to be "too much" as a woman, where that wound originates, and the reframe that turns it from a liability into your most magnetic qualityHyper-independence as a form of control — and why releasing it is essential to embodying your feminine energyThe tension between the hustle and the feminine, and why the conversation isn't about discarding one for the other but learning when to turn the volume up on eachHow the "easygoing girl" myth keeps women muted, and why the right relationships — romantic, creative, professional — actually want you at full expressionWhy being a villain in someone else's story might be the most liberating permission slip you give yourselfEldest daughter syndrome, the good girl pattern, and how both show up in business negotiations, dating, and creative expressionThe cultural lie of selflessness as the highest feminine virtue — and the first generation rewriting that narrative in real timeThis episode is for the woman who knows exactly who she is behind closed doors but hasn't fully let the world see it yet. It is a permission slip, a mirror, and a dare.Follow Along:Alexandra's Instagram: @alexandrascadiz Alexandra's TikTok: @alexandrascadizCERAMICAH on Instagram: @ceramicah.laFollow Along Instagram: @gabriellescoutmaioREVUE Newsletter: Subscribe to REVUE, a weekly Sunday letter for the most interesting woman in the room HEREScout's Agency: Learn more about Scout's Agency, a visibility atelier specializing in curated Podcast Tours and cultural placement for women in positions of authority HEREAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brands

In the first-ever guest episode of PODCAST by SCOUT, Gabrielle sits down with Jessica Meltzer for a salon-style conversation that begins with our collective obsession with Carolyn Bessette-Kennedy...and unravels into something much deeper. Together, they explore what the CBK trend really reveals about the stories women have been sold about being chosen, why we've turned a woman who died tragically into a mood board, and the uncomfortable inheritance of the princess narrative. The conversation moves through nineties nostalgia, the death of mystery in the social media age, wealth narratives, quiet luxury, brand versus business building, and what it actually means to become your own dream woman rather than emulate someone else's life.This episode sets the tone for what guest conversations on PODCAST by SCOUT will feel like going forward.Things Referenced in This Episode:REVUE essay: "CBK Made Me Depressed"Jessica Meltzer's SubstackJessica Meltzer's website: https://www.jessameltzer.com/The Salon at REVUE: Apply. here: www.revuewoman.com/the-salonFollow AlongInstagram: @gabriellescoutmaio REVUE Newsletter: Subscribe HERE Scout's Agency: Learn more HEREAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brands

In this Q&A episode of PODCAST by SCOUT, Gabrielle Scout answers three listener questions with the depth, honesty, and emotional intelligence that only comes from living it. Written down in her Louis Vuitton Carnet and answered old-school — analog over digital, always — this conversation moves through decades, desire, ambition, and the quiet art of tending to yourself while building something that matters.Topics explored in this episode include:Why your twenties are not your most important decade — and why you shouldn't be afraid to leave them behind.The reframe that changes everything for ambitious, multi-passionate women: stop collapsing your timeline into today and start spreading your desires across 5, 10, even 20 years.How Gabrielle architects her dream life by giving herself a 15-year plan — and why that's made her more focused, not less.The honest truth about mental health and entrepreneurship, from someone who has been in therapy for 15 years, received a bipolar diagnosis, and written an entire book on the subject.Why the success of a business is directly proportional to the founder's mental health — and the daily practices that keep Gabrielle grounded.This episode is for the woman who wants it all and feels the weight of that wanting. It's a permission slip to breathe, zoom out, and trust that everything you desire has a time and a place — it just might not be right now.Referenced in This Episode:The Emotional Entrepreneur by Gabrielle ScoutYou Can Heal Your Life by Louise HayFollow Along:Instagram: @gabriellescoutmaio REVUE Newsletter: Subscribe to REVUE, a weekly Sunday letter for the most interesting woman in the room HEREScout's Agency: Learn more about Scout's Agency, a visibility atelier specializing in curated podcast tours and cultural placement for women in positions of authority HEREAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brands

In this deeply personal and culturally nuanced episode of PODCAST by SCOUT, Gabrielle explores a phrase she never imagined reclaiming: the male gaze. What began as a vulnerable question inside a REVUE Salon conversation on sensuality evolved into an essay, a wave of responses from women, and ultimately this episode.Gabrielle traces the cultural origins of the term, acknowledges the very real wounds attached to it, and then asks a provocative question: What if we stepped away from the male gaze to survive… and now we can return to it with discernment?This episode is not about abandoning feminism. It is about exploring whether desire, reverence, and being seen by the right man can coexist with sovereignty, ambition, and power. It is about the difference between predatory consumption and sacred desire. It is about courting, receiving, and remembering that womanhood does not disappear when independence arrives.Things Referenced in This Episode:Gabrielle’s REVUE essay: The Male Gaze Made Me Feel Like a Woman AgainREVUE NewsletterThe SALON by REVUE membership applicationFollow AlongInstagram: @gabriellescoutmaioREVUE Newsletter: A weekly letter for the most interesting woman in the roomScout’s Agency: Podcast marketing and authority-building for ambitious foundersAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brands
