Ep 52. The Bold Women Society with guests Amanda Cahill and Caytie Langford Jun 23, 2022

Amanda Cahill + Caytie Langford founded the Bold Women Society. They are unapologetic about helping women create their biggest, BOLDEST career and life!

After a decade and half of working, Caytie she found herself as a successful nonprofit executive. She also found herself crying in her corner office because she knew "this" wasn't it. She decided she was done living life by someone else's design. When she decided to pivot, it was difficult for her to find stories of other women breaking the rules or pursuing dreams in a non-traditional manner. She started coaching other women who wanted to make professional and personal changes.

Over the course of a decade, Amanda Cahill quickly climbed the corporate ladder and created a name for herself in her industry. From the outside looking in, it seemed as though she had it all: a great career, strong relationships, and an enthusiasm that radiated in all that she did. Despite this, something was missing. Amanda set out to find supportive, like-minded women who were also feeling stuck, unfulfilled, and unsure of what the next step in life could be.  She found women who were hungry to connect as they navigated uncertainty and carved a path toward their dreams. 

When Amanda met Caytie, they brought their shared vision for Bold Women Society™ to life. Their dream is to help other women share their stories, and to inspire others to go after whatever it is they want in life.

In this episode we talk about:

[1:35] How the Bold Women Society was created

[8:53] What it means to be BOLD

[12:10] Everyone could use more confidence from time to time

[15:00] Step into your role as the main character

My guest today is Karen Hewitt. Karen is a certified Life and NLP coach as well as a successful, multifaceted entrepreneur.
