Shameless Plugs

Shameless Plugs

If you're a loyal listener, you may remember, a few months back, I was doing a podcast episode where I dropped a line mentioning I was doing a little “shameless plug” about something I was offering - complete with my own silly sound effects.

My podcast person, Aaron, thought it was hilarious and she made a funny clip of it for me.

This moment caught on camera got me thinking about something I believe is wicked important about self-promotion, shame and shining your light.

So this episode is a little love letter from me to all the people who are out there trying to create things in the world, who have big or small dreams and who are doing something new or scary or trying something else in their business, once again.

Today on The Karen Kenney Show, we’re talking about how we don’t need to be ashamed about sharing our excitement with the world about the stuff we’re working on, what kind of magic we’re creating or what kind of programs we’re offering in our business.

We also dive into how some people in the world, unfortunately, including the ones closest to us, have a way of just sh*tting on our dreams and trying to shut them down.

Of course they don't always do it on purpose, but here's the thing… countless dreams have been stopped in their tracks because of family members, friends or whoever is trying to make you believe it's not cool to get “too excited” about what we're up to.

Well, guess what? I'm not interested in being cool. Ha!

I'm just interested in being myself and so I want to touch back on the concept of the shameless plug. I mean why should there be any shame at all, around sharing what we’ve been up to or dreaming about?

If you are an ambitious dreamer and are tired of people dragging down your dreams and aspirations, then this episode is for YOU!
