Michele Brazil spent 15 years producing content for powerhouse outlets like Oprah Winfrey Show, HBO Real Sports, and Sundance Channel before stepping away from her career to raise her children. While motherhood brought deep fulfillment, Michelle eventually faced a question many women experience during major life transitions: Who am I without my job title? After feeling reduced to “just a stay-at-home mom” in social settings, Michelle began searching for a way to reconnect with her identity, skills, and passions. That search led her to volunteer work with the Fiver Children’s Foundation, where she rediscovered her leadership abilities and confronted imposter syndrome head-on. Through her involvement, Michele realized that motherhood had actually strengthened many of her professional skills—organization, negotiation, leadership, and emotional intelligence. Today, Michele empowers women to reclaim their confidence, speak up in rooms where they once felt invisible, and redefine success on their own terms.  You will learn:  • How to navigate identity shifts during major life transitions • Why many high achievers struggle with imposter syndrome • The powerful leadership skills developed through motherhood • How volunteering can help you rediscover purpose and confidence • Why celebrating small wins is essential for personal growth LINKS: FREE DOWNLOAD: 10 Tips to Make Better Video In Less Time (To Grow Your Revenue) click here  Follow host Kim Rittberg on Instagram & Subscribe to Kim's YouTube Channel to Make Better Videos that Convert  GUEST LINKS:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/iammichebWed: https://www.michelebrazil.com/ Please spread the word to your friends and leave us a rating and review on Apple Podcasts!
