Together, they explore why so many women over 40 struggle with their inner critic, how fear and perfectionism can keep us playing small, and why learning to speak to ourselves with more compassion can lead to greater joy and freedom. Erin shares her personal journey from Broadway to coaching women through the emotional side of using their voices, along with practical ways to quiet self-judgment and reconnect with the things that bring us joy. Whether you've ever felt like you're too old, too late, or not enough, this conversation will remind you that it's never too late to rediscover your voice, embrace who you're becoming, and give yourself the same kindness you so freely give to everyone else.
