Ever faced a life-altering challenge and then turned it into a triumph? That's the story of Gloria from Groundbreaker Brewing, who after being diagnosed with celiac disease, transitioned from the vineyards of winemaking to the vats of gluten-free brewing. Join me, Rachel Freemon-Sowers, as I sit down with this crafty brewer to discuss the intricate dance of creating beers that bring joy to those who thought their pint-drinking days were over. We'll weave through Gloria's personal journey, discovering how family, resilience, and the pursuit of happiness play a pivotal role in concocting the perfect brew.
When life hands you barley, make beer—just not in the way you might think if you're at Groundbreaker Brewing. This episode peels back the curtain on the art of gluten-free craft brewing, a niche where innovation meets tradition, and dietary restrictions don't mean compromising on flavor. Gloria shares the wisdom of adapting skills, the value of community and mentorship, and the unshakeable support of mothers. It's a heartfelt reminder that asking for help isn't a sign of weakness; it's a cornerstone of growth, both in the brewhouse and beyond.
As we raise a glass to the concept of radical visibility, I reflect on the power of authenticity and kindness in every bubbly sip. Our conversation serves as a testament to embracing change, listening to our inner wisdom, and owning our stories with pride. So, whether you're a beer aficionado or simply someone seeking inspiration to live more truthfully, this episode is brewed just for you. Until next time, remember that every shared story is a step towards a world where being your genuine self is the ultimate toast to life.

Warning: This is not a fluff piece about motherhood and Mother's Day.
It is real and raw and may trigger emotions you were not expecting.
This episode may be my most vulnerable yet. It is a reflection of my journey of motherhood and honors the feelings of women all over the globe about mother's day that still aren't talked about. I share my most vulnerable moments and challenges as a mother, highlighting the complexities and societal expectations surrounding motherhood that cause so much pain and suffering.
From the origins of honoring women's peace efforts to the modern commercial flurry, I share the raw and very challenges I've grappled with—single parenthood, strained family dynamics, mental illness and the audacity to create nurturing environments against the tide of expectation.
Turning the focus inward, we celebrate the power of self-compassion and the embrace of motherhood in all its diversity, including within the LGBTQ+ community. I delve into the liberating process of letting our children make their own choices and finding peace in the knowledge that love and respect transcend conformity.
We'll touch on the magic of deep inner work, the living authentically, and the invitation to join a transformative journey toward self-discovery and radical visibility. This episode is not only a reflection of my path but also a beacon for anyone seeking to emerge from the shadows, release their shame and guilt and experience their lives exactly the way they want with or without children.

These TWO ingredients are a MUST HAVE to create lasting success in your business.
In this episode of Road to Radical Visibility my guest Kathryn Thompson and I explore the two foundational ingredients that you need to create a successful business.
You might have heard how it is so important to be "yourself" in your business and show up "authentically" but what does that really mean and how do you do it.
So many people (including me) were taught how to be in the world and to find out how you want to be and interact in the world is a journey. A journey we all must take to create the life we want to be living both personally and professionally.
Kathryn and I deep dive into:
🔥 what it takes,
❤️ how it may look (it can be messy) and
🦄 the rewards of finding our authentic selves (I also call it our true selves) to create the success we want to have in our businesses. (Note: this does not always include a monetary amount, it can also look like ease, flow, energy...and more).
Have you ever felt the transformative power of being your authentic self? That's a journey our guest, Kathy Thompson, founder of Creatively Owned, knows all too well. With over 15 years as a marketing maven, she turned the spotlight onto herself, choosing to embrace radical visibility and inspiring others to do the same. Listen as she reveals what it truly means to show up as your most authentic self, without the fear of judgment, and propel your business towards unprecedented growth.
In this dynamic conversation, Kathryn gets real and raw (cause that's what we do) as she unfolds her journey of shedding her 'vanilla' persona to become unapologetically herself. She takes us through her transformative journey from camouflaging her identity to proudly owning her narrative and her business.
It's a story of persistence, growth, and authenticity. Hear firsthand how a personal transformation can spark a revolution in your professional life and why it's more essential than ever to be true to yourself in the realm of entrepreneurship.
Kathryn and Rachel offer up their wisdom for overcoming these challenges, particularly for those who are neurodivergent, in minority communities and have felt "othered" their entire lives.
🔥She passionately discusses how radical visibility has become her driving force towards success. Get ready to be inspired by Kathryn's journey, and prepare to be empowered to embrace your own authenticity and light up the world around you.

If you've ever felt:
→ the pressures of not being enough in your business, motherhood, your relationship or any other part of life ,
→ you've been so busy taking care of everyone else you forgot about yourself,
→ wait, this isn't me, what is going on?
or
→ tired of conforming when everything inside of you says, "oh hell no" but your fear holds you back,
🙌 Then push that play button or get on over to your favorite podcasting platform or my YouTube channel to listen/watch this epic episode.
Get ready to strap in for a real, unfiltered chat with the badass relationship and communication expert, Leah Sefor. She's about to drop some truth bombs on being unapologetically you and why radical visibility is the key to unleashing your power. We're diving deep into the journey of women as they navigate the often expansive and treacherous path of self-discovery, battling against societal expectations. Brace yourself for the harsh reality of seeking validation from external sources and the toll it takes on our quest for authenticity.
But hold on tight, because it's about to get real. We're getting raw and honest about the dark side of motherhood, and the overwhelming shame and guilt that comes with not fitting into society's mold of what a mom should be. Forget about fake it till you make it, because both Leah and I quickly identified this wasn't for us. We're spilling the beans on how we found the confidence to embrace our true selves, flaws and all. Let's get brutally honest, it can feel like a shit show (at times) and we are doing it anyway. You'll learn, feel inspired and motivated to do the same, live 100% as you!
And that's just the beginning. We're digging deep into the need for more than just basic self-help tools. We're talking about the absolute necessity of having an accountability partner, a mentor or kickass peeps around you.
No matter where you are in your journey to living your life exactly the way you want to without the shame and guilt you will be inspired by this episode.

Have you ever found yourself trapped in an unending cycle of negative self-talk? What if we told you that there was a way to break free from this toxic loop and become radically visible?
Welcome to an empowering conversation with Rachel and Samar where we unravel the power of self-trust, understanding, and forgiveness. We tackle the Buddhist monk analogy, shedding light on how we can step away from the societal constructs that hinder our personal growth.
Our journey doesn't stop there; we push the boundaries of comfort, exposing what lies beneath the surface. We explore what is needed to continuously take those courageous steps to self-trust. Sarmara shares the deep work that she has done to create the life she desired.
Samara opens up about her path of self-discovery; from her highly sensitive childhood and dealing with anxiety and depression, struggles with addiction and addictive self-destructive behaviors, to dealing with relationship anxiety. We delve into the raw, unedited life moments that shape who we are and discuss the importance of living authentically despite the anxiety that it may bring.
As we navigate the complexities of authenticity, we uncover the concept of micro-betrayals and their manifestations in daily interactions. We confront the differences in how men and women deal with relationship anxiety and the need for vulnerability. We also address the guilt and shame that may cloud our thoughts and how to liberate ourselves from gender conformities.
We emphasize the importance of self-compassion and wrap up our conversation by exploring positive affirmations as a tool against negative self-talk. Join us, and let's embark on this journey towards self-trust and radical visibility together.

Have you ever felt alone in your journey towards health and wellness? Social media content creator and online health coach, Christina Struckmeyer, joins me to share a unique perspective on radical visibility in the online health and wellness world. Christina breaks down her journey of transformation, shedding light on how she's used her platform to empower others, promote kindness, and advocate for inclusivity.
In this candid conversation, we discuss the courage it takes to be open and vulnerable online, the toxic social constructs around body image and the pressures that come with living up to societal expectations in the fitness and wellness industry and explore the importance of breaking free from these norms and learning to live life on your own terms.
We do a deep dive into what it really takes to create inclusivity online and offline in the health and fitness industry. She shares how this it has not only transformed her life, but has also had a significant impact on her emotional and mental health. Together, we navigate the fear of judgment, the pressures of being a content creator, and the power of finding your own path.
From addressing diet toxicity to finding an accountability partner who supports, rather than shames you, we cover it all. We also touch on how to respond to negativity online, turning criticism into a learning experience.
Christina's raw honesty about her own tribulations—losing weight, becoming a mother, dealing with emotional weight and the loss of her father—is both inspiring and empowering.
Tune in to be moved, motivated, and reminded that you are not alone in your journey. Be kind to yourself, there's no need for shame or guilt here.

Are you ready to see and receive the goodness that is waiting for you?
Have you ever:
Thought that someone else is more worthy than you because of what they have accomplished, where they work, what they do and have or are “nicer” than you?
Deflected a compliment, congratulations or a gift because “it’s not big deal” or “it was really nothing” because it would seem egotistical?
Told yourself “I don’t really need it, it’s not for me, oh never mind, it’s no big deal” or stopped yourself from asking or saying ‘yes’ because of the fear that you might not get what you really want?
I know the feeling. No worries I got you boo!
In this episode I take you outside in the gorgeous Pacific Northwest in Tacoma, Washington and share my personal experiences of how I have learned to receive more and how it has opened up new opportunities for me.
Over the last 6 months I’ve experienced receiving:
💎Working with a mentor from across the globe (who I thought I could never afford),
💎A trip to Scotland with my wife & meeting my mentor in person along with other beautiful women in the group,
💎A speaking event with one of the largest audiences to date and immediately after flying internationally,
💎A trip to Costa Rica in a villa (yes a real one), exploring, adventuring and making money all at the same time,
💎Several trips to the Pacific Northwest full of adventure, love, support and freedom,
💎Opportunities to be a guest on several kickass podcasts with the most beautiful, deep and gorgeous souls in the world (check out the bonus episodes on my channel),
💎The opportunity to work with wonderful new clients and witness the creation of more confidence, self-trust and freedom,
💎Medical and emotional support from perfect strangers (that was off the charts),
💎The support and generosity of friends that helped her recover from an injury absolutely FREE,
💎More love and support from my wife Ronica than I ever imagined,
AND
💎The continued realization and awareness that I am living the life I have dreamed of living. Well, hello clarity, creation and confidence. When I stay open to receiving my life just keeps getting better, no matter what is happening in the world around me.
There are three things that you can do right now to begin to open up to more receiving, more goodness, more joy MORE of whatever you crave in your life.
**If your ready to start receiving more of what you want in life within the next 10 days, then I invite you to join me in the Ready to Receive 10 Day Challenge!

What if you could reclaim your power, fully lean into your authentic self, and break free from the chains of religious trauma? That's exactly what our liberating guest, Rachel Freemon Sowers, has done and she's here to guide you on your journey towards self-trust.
Rachel, a champion for the LGBTQ+ and female communities, has not only conquered her own religious trauma, but also channeled her experiences into becoming a liberation and visibility coach to help others like you do the same.
We pull back the layers of fear, guilt and shame that often stem from religious trauma and see how they have been weaponized to control and marginalize various communities.
Rachel's stirring insights challenge the societal constructs projected by white cis heteronormative culture onto LGBTQIA+ communities, people of color, indigenous peoples, and women. We probe deeper into how denial of our true selves can yield profound suffering and stunt our growth. But don't worry, we got you boo. We explore feelings of hope and freedom as we unravel the power of embracing our inner rebels (our truth) and stepping into our personal power.
It takes courage to make the choice to fully show up as ourselves especially when your emotional, physical and financial security is at stake, it can be a daunting task. But Rachel's story is a testament that it is worth every step.
By acknowledging our own power and prioritizing self-compassion, we can indeed soar above the oppressive shackles of fear and shame. We invite you to join us in this empowering conversation where we celebrate individuality, honor authenticity, and advocate for radical visibility. The world is waiting for your unique presence and it's high time to let your light shine.
If you are ready to release your religious trauma and feel the freedom, peace and happiness that comes with living full out reach out to me @ Rachelfreemonsowers@gmail.com and we'll chat and see if it's a good fit to work together.

From a life of alcohol/drug addition, Bi-Polar disorder, sexual abuse (tigger warning, Skip shares his experience of being sexually assaulted), and trauma to thriving and as an LGBTQIA+ community member, helping others heal and realizing he has so much more life to live.
For over a decade, Skip has been defying these diagnoses and helping musicians and performing artists who have lost their technical skills, disconnected from their inner music, and whose spark of creativity has gone dark.
In this powerful, vulnerable and raw interview Skip deep dives and shares with us his journey to finding out who he was, who he is, who he aspires to be and how he stands in his TRUTH!🔥
In this episode of Road to Radical Visibility I have a deeply moving conversation with my guest Skip Sams, founder and head coach of the Creative Purpose Project, we explore the transformative power of authenticity and vulnerability in achieving personal and societal change.
Skip generously shares his journey through addiction, mental health struggles, and an HIV diagnosis, and how these experiences led him to discover his TRUTH and stand and say "This is my truth". 🦄
We also both share the time we realized we were gay and lesbian (respectively, lol). He knew when he was 5, I knew when I was 8 (when I kissed the neighbor girl over the summer). 🥰
His inspiring story of recovery, forgiveness, and embracing his identity as a gay man, even in the face of systemic oppression, serves as a beacon of hope for the LGBTQIA+ community and beyond who are struggling to find their own path to radical visibility.
Together, we discuss the importance of sharing our stories, standing in our truth, and actively seeking to create a more inclusive and compassionate world.
Join us as we celebrate the resilience and strength of the LGBTQIA+ community🏳️🌈
Be part of the movement towards greater authenticity, kindness, and liberation. Listen in and be inspired.

"Is it possible for me to live my life the way I want to"? "Of course, of course"!
“Is is possible for me to be who I want to be”? There are so many truth bombs dropped in this episode!
“I live for creating inclusion. I love the feeling of helping people know that they have a place, they are enough and they are seen”. Esther shares her journey from “taking people’s place at the table away”. This is another toxic societal and religious construct that work on negating our ability to show up 100% yourself.
As a transgendered woman Esther has made it her mission to sharing her journey of transitioning with you and me in the hopes to empower other trans individuals to show up as 100% themselves.
As a California transplant from Walla Walla, Washington, she gives her heart and soul to expanding inclusion in the world, pressing to create more room at the table of life.
In this episode Esther and I explore the “cost of visibility” and shares her journey of being her true self as she navigates her employment as an ordained pastoral minister in the protestant Christian church, navigating the winding journey or marriage, family, friends and her role within and outside of her church community.
Esther has also authored a book about keeping secrets, and earning a master’s degree in leadership from Fuller Seminary in Pasadena. She currently works as a Trainee Marriage and Family Therapist at The LGBTQ Center of the Desert in Palm Springs, while pursuing a master’s degree at Alliant International University. She also produces and hosts the podcast Transgender Woman Talking.
If you know anyone who is struggling, has questions or just needs to know they are not in their transition alone, please share this podcast with them.

✨Synchronicity is a beautiful thing. ✨
Rory and I met less than a month ago and we just hit it off. We were both selected to be Media Ambassadors for the AIDS/Lifecycle. After I heard part of Rory’s story I knew I wanted to have him on this show. It was friends at first sight for me.
In this episode Rory takes us on his courageous journey of what it has meant for him to peel off the layers of coming out in highly conservative community, breaking free from a crystal meth addiction, depression & anxiety, becoming HIV positive, hitting rock bottom and what it was like to be finally feel seen and heard by himself and his community.
Rory Slikker (he/him) is a Clinical Outreach Specialist for a LGBTQIA+ affirming addiction treatment center called Michael’s House in Palm Springs, CA. Born and raised in the small, agricultural, conservative town of Lompoc, CA, Rory’s journey to radical visibility began with VERY humble beginnings. A troubled home-life, high school death threats, HIV, and addiction, taught Rory how to survive first, and live authentically second.
Today, Rory is a sober man and activist that uses his story to help others struggling with addiction, mental health, and internalized homophobia. He is the co-founder of the LGBTQ Association for Addiction and Mental Health Professionals, a Media Ambassador and participant of the AIDS/LifeCycle, and sits on half-a-dozen committees responsible for bringing sober conferences to Southern California.

🌈 Happy Pride Month! 🌈
You may not see yourself as a Unicorn but there is a part of you that is. When I was in Scotland earlier this year I found out that the Unicorn was their national animal. I was wondering why I felt so at home. 🙌 😂
You and I have been conditioned, taught, trained and assimilated into a culture that has oppressed our true way of being since the beginning of time, AND it’s time to put an end to all of it!
→You may have been taught not to shine.
→You may have been told you’re too much, too shy, too sensitive, too intimidating (I’ve been told all of the above) and more.
→You may have been judged for the way you dress, talk, smile, who you love.
or
→You may have been shamed for just being you.
There are a million things we are taught to shame, judge and blame ourselves for and it’s time to break free from it all.
The world is more beautiful, more joyful, more compassionate, more loving and meaningful place when you show up 100% Yourself.
I hope this episode inspired you to start or continue to show up 100% Yourself. If your wanting to experience more of your life in your truest and fullest expression then I would love to help. Reach out to me! I'm here.

You are going to want to sing along! Well if you’re old school like me!
Laughter, Joy, Revelation and Inspiration are the words to describe this episode of Road to Radical Visibility.
Spoiler alert! Live music is played and I cried! I know a real shocker. Kevin plays a song that reminds me so much of my dad, one of his favorites. I remember spinning to this very song with my dad. It was fuc*”n remarkable. It touched my soul.
Music has played such a HUGE role in my life. Kevin’s story resonates with me on so many deep levels. He shares the most pivotal times in his life that created the curiosity for music and ultimately sparked his journey and finally creating a career in music and editing. Kevin has provided audio production and voice-over services. Kevin specializes in podcast production, audio editing, music placement, and more.
From exclusively playing gigs in LA to moving to Miami where he experienced burnout from gigs and pivoted (like so many others) due to Covid and now produces some of the biggest podcasts in the country.
Kevin shares how over and over again he listened to his intuition to “dabble” in other areas where he could bring in the income he wanted and needed. He dared to follow his, “Wouldn’t it be a dream come true if I could” notions.
It was such a fun time interviewing my podcast editor, Kevin Laurence Hirshorn. For nearly a decade, He currently produces/edits several successful podcasts, one of which is the #1 Global Financial Technology series "Breaking Banks," reaching over 7 million listeners in nearly 180 countries.
I would love to hear what you thought of this episode.

Stop taking "full responsibility" for everything that is happening or has happened in your life.
The self-help/personal development world is constantly telling you that you are the reason you can't manifest, you continue in the same patterns and aren't accomplishing your goals. This keeps you in the self-shaming spiral that is NOT helpful.
I am here to tell you that it's not ALL your fault.
What many personal development experts forget to mention is that everything in your world has been co-created.
Co-creation informs us of our thoughts, feelings and actions in every part of your life.
This realization can be both freeing and terrifying when you start to see how much you have been influenced by culture to form your identity and the way you interact in the world.
Co-creation has played a role in:
→The way you perceive, interact and feel about places & things,
→The way you perceive, interact and feel about others and,
→MOST importantly how you perceive, interact and feel about yourself.
The goal of this episode is to FREE you from:
🚫Taking over responsibility,
🚫Judgement that is stopping you from reaching your goals,
🚫Shame that has diminished your confidence and kept you from abundance in all areas of your life,
🚫Fear of the unknown, and
🚫Thoughts and feelings about yourself that were never yours.
💎 This episode of RTRV is sponsored by the TRUE YOU Vision Board Event happening on May 19th from 7-9:30/10pm PST the New Moon. If you're ready to manifest more of the experiences you want in your life I invite you to join me and other powerful individuals. Click on the link: https://www.rachelfreemonsowers.com/thetrueyouvisionboardevent 💎
The 5 realizations that I share with you will empower and show you how you can begin co-creating in a way where you experience more happiness, freedom, joy, confidence, flow, ease, harmony, love and alignment within yourself.
I am also sharing a very simple exercise that can help you change your current relationship with co-creation and begin to FREE up your precious energy so that you can experience your life in the fullest way possible.
❓What came up for you as you learned more about co-creation? I would love to hear about your ah-ha’s and insights❓
What shift are you going to make in your co-creation?

Warning! F-word (not in an angry way), so headphones recommended.
I went "off book" with this one. I hope it inspires you to manifest and find the freedom to experience your own "hell yes" moments.
Here’s what you can expect from this weeks episode of Road to Radical Visibility:
🦄 Why “not giving an F or No more Fs left” is not for me,
❤️ How I created true freedom by deciding to care,
🔥 A never before shared moment when I decided I did not want to live the rest of my life “like this”,
💡 How I apply the 80/20 or 90/10 rule to experience joy, peace, fun and goodness in my life,
and
✨ The importance recognizing toxic social constructs including religion to create true alignment body and soul.
Cheers to another trip around the sun my friends. Every year my life just keeps getting exponentially better and I get to experience it in ways I that have been both expected and unexpected. Often beyond my wildest dreams - like flying first class (bougie bitch travel, no shame no guilt), traveling and making money all at the same time ( Hello Scotland, Costa Rica and more), and create a relationship with myself that is unwavering in ultimate self-trust.
There is a safety within that creates the ability to be open to your desires and receive them into your life.
There are lessons along the way and instead of feeling pain or sadness as I look back on some of these lessons, I feel open to them. Open to accepting how I experienced them, how I felt through them and what came out of them.
Just to clarify, this isn’t “I’m so glad I had that trauma, because it make me stronger”. Nope, this is the “wow, I heal and honor that part of me during that experience. I see her struggle and pain. I sit with her, nurture her, love on her. We are whole”.
What would if feel like for you to look in the mirror and observe yourself complete, whole and perfect right now just as you are?
What would it feel like to create even more openness, self-acknowledgment, and confidence to receive what is waiting for you?
I hope this episode inspires you to start dreaming, creating and being open the experiences you want in your life. Known and unknown. ✨

Are you ready to say “holy crap, I am actually living the life I want to live”!
“Radical Visibility is standing in your truth, speaking your truth, when who you are is not what everyone expects AND continuing to be true to yourself.”
In this episode of Road to Radical Visibility my guest Brandi Green, Owner/Winemaker and I explore how radical visibility has helped her to:
🦄 Confidently say Yes to the things she wanted & say “no” to the things she doesn’t.
💎 Create a deeper meaning of success
🔥 Continue to be true to herself no matter what is happening around her.
As an owner/winemaker of Burnsini Vineyards, Brandi shares the “radical steps” she took a way to be who she is on her journey to create a business and life that she is truly passionate about.
“One of the biggest lessons I learned is that I was not making wine in a way that I felt good about making wine and I realized I couldn’t do that working for someone else”.
From having “no clue” of how to go from working as an hourly employee at a winery to owning a winery Brandi’s story will empower you to trust and stay on your path.
From the ups and downs of saying “yes to everything” (for over a year) to the realization that “the things we build don’t have to last forever”, to learning how to release and honor the season of people, places and things with less suffering.
There are so many golden nuggets (ie. really good shizz) in this episode.

This is what can happen when you follow your “hell yes” and go to a foreign country to meet up with people you barely even know for a week and have ultimate trust in yourself. Pure f'in goodness!
As I walked out to the edge of the rocks at low tide I realized that I was here for more than just a working vacation. I had never felt so connected to myself or my environment as I did in that moment.
Yes, It has been a goal to create income while I am traveling around the world. But this trip turned out to be so much more. There were moments of adventure, connection with myself, relaxation and times of deep reflection and insight.
A quick note: This episode is brought to you by Unleashed 100%U - the place where people throw away the mask and start living full out - No Shame or Guilt Needed. Creating the freedom to experience their life exactly the way they want to.
In this episode of Road to Radical Visibility I share 5 ah-ha moments that have shifted the way I view myself and how I can create even more freedom in allowing myself to experience my life exactly the way I want to.
Here they are:
✨Environment plays a major role in energy exchange.
✨I no longer need to fear the way I used to be affected by others.
✨Channeling is everything for me.
✨Being open is the answer.
✨It’s time to blow some shi8 up!
With each of these ah-has the one question that kept popping up for me was, how do I hold onto these feelings and way of being once I get back home? I answer that question with each of these ah-has.
Which of these ah-has spoke to you? What would it feel like to know exactly what you want without doubt? What would you say “HELL YES” to?
My friend, I believe it is time for you to find out. Whether you are struggling to see yourself in your own life, uncertain of what you really desire or how you want to experience your life, I’m here to help. I’d love to chat with you.

“Life is just derailing me right now”, she said.
Her voice began to tremble as she left me this message. I could feel her pain, self-doubt and desire for peace and calm.
Often times it can feel like life is “derailing” you.
The chaos of the world keeps coming at you. Sometimes like little annoyances and other times like big wind gusts that just keep knocking you over.
“When will it stop?” you ask yourself. All the while knowing that it isn’t going to stop. The chaos of the outside world will continue to spin and churn. But you just keep pushing through hoping for the day you can feel just a little bit of respite, a little taste of joy. Unfortunately, when we get that little taste we are so overjoyed we feel like we “have arrived” and as quickly as it came it is gone and you are caught up in “it all” again.
In this episode of Road to Radical Visibility I want to help you create the ability to experience the calm, joy, happiness, (or any other feelings you want to be having) and security within. I have come up with 5 ways to find and stay in your own truth in order to generate these feelings from within.
The likelihood of you finding lasting safety outside of yourself is slim. The good news is that you can find it from within.
You've been taught to react to your environment in order to:
✓Keep the peace,
✓Make sure you don’t offend anyone, or
✓take responsibility for something you have no control over,
✓most importantly keep yourself safe (this is done by the body, not the mind) and,
✓ exhausted from trying to control everything around you.
In order to create the feeling of safety and security you need to go within and reconnect with what I call the “True Self”. Dive down into the subconscious while, reducing the nervous systems response and teaching the body it is safe to do something different. This is not a one off activity and when you commit to your own wellbeing you will experience a new way of experiencing your life.
It’s time to break free my friend!
When used consistently these 5 things will create a new neurological pathway that overtime will allow you to no longer be affected by the chaos of the external world.
Are you ready to:
🙌 Confidently and clearly identify what is going on externally and what to adjust internally
🙌 Immediately know what you need to do to create the feeling you want to feel
🙌 Quickly shift your energy into knowing and confidence to free yourself from old patterns of self-doubt, shame, guilt.
Awesome! Let’s get started.

Thinking about publishing your own story then this episode of Road to Radical Visibility is for you!
My guest, Shauna Baty is a author (check out the episode about her book, https://youtu.be/u5S3tn0Fu7o), professional ghostwriter that specializes in multi-authored books. She is also the principle at Ghostwriter Business Academy (GBA).
We talk about the obstacles of self-publishing and the massive benefits to becoming part of a multi-authored book.
Here are a few:
✓Minimal support
✓The vulnerability of telling your story,
✓Finding time to write,
✓ Obsessing over every word and wondering if what you are writing is any good or makes sense,
✓Navigating of the self-publishing world, art for your cover, the photographer, who will write the forward and the cost!
Shauna and I want to make it easy. We want to give you a space where you can feel supported, empowered and inspired to share your story.
Why a multi-authored book?
Multi-authored books are the best and easiest way for you to become a published author!
**Here are just some of the benefits:
🦄 You become a published author without investing too much time planning, writing and publishing a whole book.
🔥 You have a shared network. It’s not just you. In our book, you will be surrounded by 19 other women who will share with their network! Just think of this, 20 women share their book with their network of 100 people (puts you in front of 2000 people) then each of those 2000 people share it will 10 of their friends,..well you get the idea.
💎 Very small risk. You get to “dip your toe in the publishing pool”. Starting out with publishing in a multi-authored book allows you to go through the publishing process with no overwhelm.**
Ready to become a published author?

Oh Shizzz, my friends......this episode!
We dig deep, we show our hearts and you will witness one of the most raw and real episodes I have ever had the privilege of producing. My guest is one of the most freakin' remarkable humans who has overcome some of the worst circumstances. And yes, we reveal things about our childhood never discussed (yes we grew up together) before. Get ready to be inspired!
In this weeks episode of Road to Radical Visibility my guest Dana Anderson, Forensic Psychologist shares her journey of reclaiming her power to create a new reality.
She shares her journey of overcoming abuse, religious trauma, societal constructs and the point she decided, "I'm not going to fail, I'm doing this, this is what I want, it's now me time."
This takes massive courage. Her bravery to take back her life, stand up to the people, beliefs, & trauma and untangle the B.S. that she was taught was hers. If you're ready to take back your power and live your life to the fullest then you're in the right place.
We explored ways to reclaim your personal power and create a life that is authentically yours. The deep healing process that takes place to recover from religious trauma, how to understand and accept your power, and finding your true sense of self.
This powerful episode will empower you to break free from what is holding you back and reclaim your power and reality. It's time to trust yourself and create a life that is aligned mind, body and soul.

Let's get this out of the way. ✅
No, you didn't say to much, feel to much,
expose too much!
You're probably not sliding back into your old patterns.
It just feels like it.
You're not alone. Here are some of the things I hear all of the time....
"I feel like I am going backwards."
"What was I thinking?"
"Did I just expose too much?"
"Why am I so emotional, I just had a really good day?"
"I was on a high and now I feel like I am crashing."
All of these statements/questions are followed with a bigger question.....Why do I feel this way? Why is this happening?
We often swim around in the "pool of why" in an attempt to cognitively get out of the feelings we don't want to feel. Like shame, judgement, self-doubt, embarrassment, and fear. If you are having these feelings and feeling stuck, I'm here. For now, just know it's okay, you're okay.
I'm here to tell you, you may not be going backwards at all. You may not be "failing" and falling back into your old patterns. You probably aren't being more emotional because you are "weak, too sensitive or just lacking in confidence". The truth of it is, is that you may be suffering from either a vulnerability hangover or an emotional hangover.
They are very similar and often disguised as feeling dysfunctional, off, more emotional, stuck, vulnerable and wanting to go back into your shell. Yes, this applies to both people who are "introverts and extroverts". (more on that topic later). PLEASE, don't. Stay present with yourself, don't shove the feelings down or away.
Here's the good news. We don't need to fully immerse ourselves into these emotions to shift how we are thinking, feeling or being. There is a way to quickly move through with full awareness and not have these emotions "keep us down" for any longer than you want.
In this episode of Road to Radical Visibility I am sharing with you:
By the end of this episode you will have:
❤️more self-compassion
✨more awareness and hope
and,
🦄 the ability to access the power of a vulnerability/energy hangover, instead of being a victim of them.
I would love to hear how this was for you. This is not a one and done process. It is something that requires self-leadership and deeper work. If you are ready to create the courage to create and experience the life you want every minute of everyday, reach out to me.

HOLY Shizzzz! The energy of this episode is so deep, real and raw.
My guest Erica Hurtubiese (mom, athlete, coach, lover of sand and coffee) shares her journey as a caregiver, moving through the death of her husband and the process that comes after, fighting for her own path, when with the people around did not agree or even respect her role, and what she did to find the courage to redefine herself and life exactly the way she wanted to.
From:
"We're breathing, we're good. My life didn't have purpose by any means it was pure survivorship, which then caused me to create so many beliefs in my life that I can see now weren't true. My life was so ridiculously out of control emotionally".
To:
"I am finding so much fun now, I am so much fun! Doing things for me, by me. I am no longer dependent on anyone else to make me feel a certain way."
From the loss of her husband, then the trauma of COVID (which was immediately after losing her husband), and engaging in relationships that caused her to lose herself to unworthiness.
She shares her experiences of caregiving for her husband and how it brought her to the brink of a breakdown, the moment she noticed that she needed to make a shift and the intentional decisions that ultimately helped her love herself.
Erica steps into the place of true vulnerability with raw and real thoughts, feelings and experiences in this episode. Make sure you have some tissue ready you just might need it. I know you are going to love it!
I guarantee that you will walk away knowing and feeling:
❤️ like you are not alone
🙌 that you are not the only one who has thought the thoughts, and
🦄 that you can find your way back/or redefine yourself and experience a life without shame and with all the JOY you could ever imagine.
I cannot wait to hear what stood out for you, touched your heart and gave you hope or a renewed sense of self-love.

My guest Gin Walker (copywriter, messaging coach, professional stage actor and soul explorer) shares how her pilgrimage on the Camino de Santiago helped her find the strength to create the courage and self-trust to return back to her truest self. (spoiler alert, it was inside of her all along, she just needed to listen).
"I was very much aware I would have to move through this dark night of the soul to heal and let go".
This episode of Road to Radical Visibility Show/Podcast is overflowing with:
🚶🏻♀️"walking wisdom",
🦄 magical ah ha's,
🙌 lessons in strength and
🔥 inspiration to create self-trust.
Gin shares the 3 things that she wanted to let go of (you'll be able to relate, I promise you, I was) to find her truth and have the courage to live it.

If you have found yourself sacrificing yourself for the wellbeing of others (hello holiday season and beyond), in situations you really have no desire to be in and afraid to say or do, and/or have found yourself in the habit of “faking it” because of other peoples expectations & beliefs AND want to break free, this episode of Road to Radical Visibility is for you!
Instead of saying “no I can’t” it is time to say, actually, yes I can. I can chose me!
Now is the perfect time to free yourself! Why?
There is a New Moon today. This new moon inspires us to “say yes to experiences and learning journeys that strengthen our capacity to have faith in ourselves, to be pioneers, to take our own direction in life, and inspire others with our example. And support our capacity to be courageous and bold”, according to Moonomens.com.
We often associate the word "no" with setting a boundary or something we have to say to make a stand, hold our ground or stand up for ourselves. But what if the word "yes" allowed you to do these things and opened up to a whole new way of honoring yourself.
Ultimately, leading you to a new way of being and experiencing every situation in your life?
The holidays (and beyond) can be a really triggering time for many. You think you “have to”:
→ Go someplace you really don’t want to go.
→Be surrounded by people who you may not really like, enjoy being around, have to fake a smile, happiness or a myriad of other emotions.
→Act like you didn’t experience trauma at the place you are in or with people you're surrounded by because “That’s not what we do, or how you act”. You're told to put your feelings, needs and healing aside just one more time just to hold onto the disfunction of the system.
Well I'm proposing that you don’t need to do any of the above if you don’t want to! Yep, I said it. You have a choice and in todays episode I am going to lead you through a quick 3 step process for you to say yes to yourself and give your body a chance to know it is safe to do so.
In this episode I’ll:
✓ Explain why it can feel like such a struggle to do be who you want, do what you want and often struggle to listen and follow your what you truly want.
✓ Help you say "yes" to yourself and change the way you experience the upcoming holiday and your whole life.
✓ Empower you with choice and the realization that “Yes, you can!”
P.S. The next TRUE YOU Vision board event is coming on January 21st and will be from 8:30 -10:30/11 am. Want to get the details click the link https://www.rachelfreemonsowers.com/thetrueyouvisionboardevent

✓Down on yourself for not reaching ALL your goals you set in 2022 ,
✓Thinking thoughts like: "I did okay but...I could have done better" of maybe something like, "I don't know why I couldn't get "this" or "that" done, I really could have/should have (you fill in the blank here),
✓Feeling like you need a boost your in confidence and focus to create sustainable action that actually fits your life, (or
✓Occasionally getting a glimpse of the the person who can achieve their goals, experience success and be exactly who you want to be, but something is in your way and your'e not sure what?
If you answered "yes" to any of the above then this episode is for you!
In this video I am going to lead you through an exercise that will:
✨Identify and remove the know and unknown triggers that keep you stuck and stagnant,
✨Reach any goal you set,
✨Release the guilt, shame, blame and judgement (you have on yourself) so that your nervous system knows it is safe to experience success and momentum, and
✨Create a strong and unshakable feeling of internal confidence to live and experience your life just the way you want.
I would love to hear about your experience during this visualization.
What did you identify, what you were able to release and how did you feel after?
I really do love hearing from you and value every single interaction and comment from you, my beautiful friend.

Do you find yourself in cycle of self-sabotage more often than you want to be?
Have you said to yourself recently, "why am I back here again"?
or
Seriously, I am tired of ___________ happening to me?
You've tried to use your brain to convince yourself to do or not do something. You repeat "I can do this, I don't need that to feel okay, I am (you fill in the blank) or even Come on, you go this" and it may work for a minute but then you find yourself returning to the same old pattern feeling the same way you don't want to feel.
Beating up on yourself for not being "able to be strong enough, good enough, smart enough".
or
If you're anything like I was....it sounded more like. Seriously you have PhD education, a Master's and Bachelor's degrees for goodness sake, and you can't figure this out! (Enter in the spiral of shame, guilt just one more time.)
It's time for you to release your old patterns for good! Yes, it is possible!
It wasn't until I started developing self-sabotage interrupters that ACTUALLY worked was I able to finally be free.
If you are ready to stop the self-sabotage then this episode of Road to Radical Visibility is for you!
In this episode I am sharing the one thing that you may not be aware of that keeps you from releasing your old patterns for good and experiencing your life exactly the way that you want to.
For years I thought my mind controlled my body. The freedom didn't happen until I recognized that my body was just (if not more, in my opinion) as important as my mind. It was the combination of my mind and body working together that equaled the freedom (this is me saying bye bye 👋 to old patterns) I was craving.
Staying in the conscious mind is not going to create the foundational shifts in the mind or body that will create the ability to no longer enter back into your old patterns. It is dipping down into your subconscious, connecting with your body and your truest self that creates the opening for your nervous system to feel safe in a new pattern.
In this video I walk you through the exact 5 Step process I used to create my self-sabotage interrupters to release my old patterns and experience my life and business the exactly way that I want to.
I will let you know that this is not a one and done process. It is an intentional guide for you to use whenever you feel yourself slipping back into old patterns or you think/feel/recognize you're sabotaging yourself.
It's time for you to:
1. Identify and release the shame and guilt of your pattern
2. Identify and connect with your truest self
3. Listen and create an "anchor" in this connection
4. Create the self-sabotage interrupter that will ONLY work for you
5. Say or do you self-sabotage interrupter
Now you know what to do! Time to create your own self-sabotage interrupters!

When was the last time you took a moment to rest? I mean really rest. Was it when your body finally told you...."ummmm I'm going to take the time to rest whether you want to or not". 😂
Sometimes we get so caught up in the doing, in the accomplishing or in the sacrificing that we don't even notice the toll it is taking on our body and soul.
I had a client say to me the other day. "You know I am only as good as the last thing that I did or accomplished" as tears ran down her face from exhaustion and overwhelm.
I have worked on resting periodically but my body was speaking to me again and I am telling you when you listen the most magical and beautiful things can come from it. (Even if you are sick)
I love this quote, “Learn to read symptoms not only as problems to be overcome but as messages to be heeded.”
― Gabor Maté, When the Body Says No: The Cost of Hidden Stress
The week before I got Covid I was in Kauai on vacation. I had really worked a lot before I left (hello single entrepreneur behavior, since I am the only one who brings in money in my business) and started right back up when I came home. I felt the symptoms on Wednesday night and knew what my body was telling me. She was telling me time to rest.
What I didn't really expect were the life changing reflections that I would get from being sick. I had a choice to lean into them or ignore them. So I leaned in. When I did the most magical and foundational shifts happened.
My hope is by sharing these revelations (both big and small) with you, you will be able to notice your symptoms as an awareness that something is off. Feelings of anxiety, stress, overwhelm, illness, depression, avoidance, frequent crying, the need to "control", self-judgement, anger, shame and guilt are all symptoms. Like when a nightlight pops on when you turn off the light.
I took the time and I want to empower you to do the same. (Yes, you do have the time.)
I still have thoughts. Here were my thoughts for a quick second:
- "How will I make my money"
- "I just need to keep working"
- "If I cancel will they think I'm faking" (hello corporate and large entity cultural conditioning and trauma)
and
- "I want to take this time"
This last thought allowed me to transition into my knowing to tap into the wise one within me and know my truth and follow through with it.
If you've been:
- Pushing through your stress
- Avoiding your emotions (because really if you go there who knows what will happen)
- Swimming in self-judgement about what it means if you "can't do something"
- Feeling like once you do "something" it will get better, but it never does really
- Worrying that other's will think or their perception of you (saying "I don't care what others think" all the time is a sign)
Then I want to encourage you to listen to this episode till the end. We will do a quick 20-30 second exercise to help you re-center yourself and connect with your body.

Do you feel like the harder you work for something the more worthy you are to have it? Or the more worthy you are because you did the "hard thing"? (This was one of mine.)
Do you find yourself overcomplicating things and decisions that used to feel easy and simple feel hard or annoying?
If you're like "Rachel, get out of my head" then I this episode of Road to Radical Visibility is for you. It's time to create some real and sustainable relief, if you choose .
I’m Rachel Freemon Sowers also known as the breakthrough bi$ch because I am passionate about helping people in the LGBTQ+ and female communities break free from the social constructs, beliefs, opinions that have been holding you back from creating and experiencing your life exactly the way that you want to.
This episode came about because so many of my clients I love to work with struggle with this very thing.
They become consumed with:
📌 Doing all of the things
📌 Aim for the "illusive" perfection and demean themselves when they can't achieve it
📌 Always overthink, over doing, and become overly responsible
📌 Instead of slowing down they add another thing to their plate
📌 Rarely if every stop to celebrate your successes
📌 Truly crave more joy and ease but choose burnout instead because what you "do" is directly linked to your worthiness.
They struggle to see a way to quickly, efficiently and fully shift their way of doing into a way of being. But, it can happen. This is what one of my client's said to me yesterday in our session:
"Before working with you I don't ever think I trusted myself, but since we started working together I do and that means I can do things that bring more love and joy into my life instead of stress and exhaustion".
I am here to tell you that you can have adventure, fun, a feeling of purpose and success you truly want & find time to enjoy the life you have been working so hard to build. You CAN have it ALL!
No more:
👍 Forgetting what used to be so simple to remember
👍 Constant chaos
👍 Burn out and not able to do the things you truly care about
👍 Extreme Fatigue
👍 Wishing for a break (You actually can take one)
👍 Hoping this all pays off one day.
👍 Massive self-sacrifice & depletion (to prove you are worthy)
👍 Missing out on the people and experiences that mean the most to you
If you are saying to yourself "Rachel I want one or ALL of those then you are ready for a change.
It's time for you to create more freedom, ease in your life and be 100% present so you can enjoy the life you have been working so hard to build. 🙌
If you are saying to yourself, I want all of that but don't know where to start, I have a short cut to this process. Get on my calendar and I'll break down the steps and we can get you where you want to be: https://link.rachelfreemonsowers.com/widget/appointment/rfs100udc/100percentudiscoverycall

How do you feel when you "fall off track" ?
Do any of these thoughts sound familiar?
What is wrong with me?
I should have......
I could have.....
Why did I........
It's going to take a lot to........
Here I am again..........
Why can't I......
Down the rabbit hole of shame and guilt (although you may not notice it as such because you're trying to figure out how to fix it). But instead of "fixing it" you keep repeating the same pattern.
Don't worry you are not the only one who does. Shocker....I still have them sometimes, way less than before but I am human just like you. I just have more tools and now I want to give them to you.
In this episode I share my journey of "falling off track" in my health journey to lose weight and return to my athletic self and how I quickly recalibrated so that I can be, feel and experience my life the way I want!
Yep, it's easy to criticize ourselves AND it can feel just as easy to listen and give ourselves the space to quickly shift into feeling good again.
I'll let you in on a secret, the foundational tools are the same and once you learn how to use them in one area of your life you can use them in ALL the areas of your life.
What part of this episode rang true for you?
How are you planning on getting back on track without shame or guilt?

Calling all LGBTQ+ and Female entrepreneurs and professionals!
My guest Eric is on 🔥 in this episode! If you're ready to free yourself and FULLY represent who you are online this episode is for you.
In this episode Eric Z. Johnson, Social Media Agency Owner, Profile Writer and LinkedIn Trainer, (PLUS - LGBTQ+ community member, my long time buddy and accountability partner for the last 2.5 years) and I share some *powerful* ways that you can be fully yourself in the online space simply by adjusting your online profiles.
This is especially important if you are in the LGBTQ+, female or other marginalize communities. Eric shares his story of breaking free from the toxic pressure of the online world and stepping out fully as himself. He shares his story of coming out online and the one realization that he had that truly set him free!
Are you able to represent yourself online exactly the way you want to? For a long time I wasn't. Showing up as 100% yourself 100% of the time online can feel tricky and confusing.
There's a lot of moving parts. Your online profiles are one of the most important.
They're the first thing people read to find out if they want to hang out on your page, hire you or share what you do with others.
I have struggled to get my FB, IG, and LinkedIn profiles "right" (whatever that means).
Can you relate?
👉 I looked at other peoples profiles (can you say comparison)?
👉 Put in all the words the experts told me to put in (not words I say)
👉 I even created a "dynamic" tag line to "make an impact" and.....nothing!
I tried to make it sound like me but the fact of the matter was that none of it was like me. Just words I "tried on" to reach more people.
It's time for those of us in the LGBTQ+ and female communities to STOP:
🚫 Hiding
🚫 Feeling like we can't show up exactly the way we want to
🚫 Giving into what you are supposed to say, do or be
🚫 Settling for representing ourselves in small ways so other people aren't offended, intimidated, threatened, or uncomfortable.
I don't know about you but my life is just to dang short to be thinking about how other people want me to show up, be or do.
It's time for you to be 100% yourself 100% of the time - NO SHAME OR GUILT NEEDED. Everywhere🦄 including online.

Want to know how to work with me? Check out my website: www.rachelfreemonsowers.com
This episode of Road to Radical Visibility I share with you how Negative thoughts, feelings and energy are affecting your ability be who you want to be and live and experience life the way you want to.
Negative thoughts, feelings, and behaviors are NOT helpful when they are present the majority of the time. Think back, how many times do you have a negative thought in your mind and it affects that way your body feels? Or maybe you don't feel anything in your body? In both cases this video is for you.
One minute you're happy and the next you're feeling all of the feels. (You know the ones you don't want to feel). This rollercoaster of emotion takes a toll on your body. Yep, it does! Not convinced or just unsure if it is, then you'll want to stick around.
In this episode, I share with you exactly how to tell, release and shift the negativity that is trapped in your body.
Here is what I cover:
3 Signs that you have negative energy in your body
3 Ways to Release negative energy from your body
3 Ways you can tell when negative energy has left your body
You're already probably feeling the effects of the negative energy that is
stored in your body you just may not know why it's there or how to release it in a healthy way.
If you don't know what to release or how to release the negativity you will often do more harm than good when trying to avoid or get rid of the negative feelings in the body. (This looks like numbing out, constantly day dreaming, not paying attention, or saying "it is what it is" all of the time). You don't need to go the extreme to feel better, I promise you that!
There is a better way and I want to share it with you.
Negativity that is stored in the body plays a major role in you feeling the freedom and confidence to be 100% you 100% of the time without shame or guilt.
It's a process AND it doesn't have to take a long time. It just takes a willingness to explore and un-attach from what you know and play with the possibility that you can be, feel and have exactly what you want in life.

This episode is JAMMED PACKED with so much goodness.
📍Letting go of the small stuff,
📍internal reflections,
📍seeing and loving all parts of you,
📍"ADHD hell",
📍what to do when you're annoyed,
📍staying focused and organized,
📍being kind to yourself
AND
🙌 daring to trust yourself so that you can have the life you want.
This episode of Road to Radical Visibility is dedicated to all of my peeps who like me are multi-passionate, may or may not struggle with ADD (like I do) and love/crave/are invigorated pushing the envelop and believe that that we can have it all.
"Other people get to live there, why, why don't I get to do it ?" Those were the words that triggered my guests "escape plan" to building a life and multiple business that allow her AND her community to thrive.
Being multi-passionate in business and life does not need to feel confusing, overwhelming, or scattered. My guest on the show today shares with us how being multi-passionate has helped her thrive both in her personal and entrepreneurial life.
We talk about the one thing that has allowed Marla to continue to grow her business and meet every single challenge that came her way.
SELF TRUST - It helps us to highlight the opportunities that are waiting for us.
For Marla, it was all about linking her various businesses together with her personal interests. "I was creating businesses that would all feed into one another, meeting need and creating her audience."
From building a vacation rental company to creating a restaurant (in her husband's grandmother's house), a catering business (dinnertainment), concierge services for the vacation rentals, and so much more.
There are 3 strategies that have allowed both Marla and I have implemented in order to scale our business, reach our goals, and live the lives we want to live.
We share all the juicy details, real emotions, and how we have worked through the internal tension that comes through self-reflection. (Even when you don't really want to see it.)
What you don't see in this video is at the end Marla said to me, "I am just in awe of you". I asked why? She said, "Because you are just so you, real, raw, and inspiring".
I want to empower you to become Radically Visible to yourself and others. You just never know who you will inspire by just being you.
Let us know in the comments what your favorite part of the episode was.

How often do you find yourself in a spiral of negative thinking?
Do your negative thoughts spiral out of control when you:
→ don't accomplish/meet a goal something,
→ make a mistake (this looks like being hard on yourself) or constant berating that happens when you feel like you haven't done enough, didn't give enough, cared enough...okay basically all the "enoughs"?
but wait there's more.....
Then you go down even further into the rabbit hole of shame, self-judgement and you hear yourself say one more time, "how many times am I going to have to feel like this, learn this lesson, feel this pain?"
Then this episode and radical visibility are for you!
In this episode I share with you:
✅ 3 most common negative thinking cycles,
✅ 3 realizations that will redefine your reality
and
✅ 3 actions that will bounce you out of the negative thoughts/feelings and bring you back to strength, confidence and knowing.

Finally, at 50 I found my twin! "Twin win!", as Lyndsay and Leslie (on HGTV Unsellable Houses ) would say, twin, win! This episode will go down as one of my all-time favorites so far.
"I thought my partner put a video of me on TikTok (TikTok) without me knowing"! 😂
My guest Shauna Baty comes to us from British Columbia, Canada. We connected on the big TT (TikTok) and realized we will be living closer to each other as my wife and I venture out into the Pacific Northwest and Shauna moves to Vancouver Island.
Hold on to your hat my friends. This episode of Road to Radical Visibility is powerful! My guest and I explore the shifts in the LGBTQ+ community over the generations, continued discrimination and how the LGBTQ+ community now is more powerful than ever, and what we can do to continue creating awareness and equality.
"Radical Visibility is not about changing the question but about changing the answers".
In this episode (warning the F💣 is dropped more than once) my guest Shauna Baty drops some powerful truth bombs, shares her experiences as an LBGTBQ+ woman, mother, and community member.
As an author, of , Weed Your Garden (you can find it on Amazon, link below) the "why to guide" and ghostwriter for other people who are wanting to make a larger impact in the world.
Our discussion weaves through the social constructs that we were taught (unwritten obligations, can you relate?), discrimination we have felt (and continue to feel at times), and the reasons we are both so passionate about telling our stories and the stories of others in our community and beyond.
At 56, Shauna said, it is only in the last few years have I started to live with intention. She shift? She started changing the answers instead of changing the questions.
If you are feeling like life is happening to you, like you hunkering down and waiting, living a "slow progression toward death" then it is time to "open up the envelope" and start looking inside.
You will want to get her book, Weed Your Garden. It is the "why to guide" to start weeding out the things and people in your life that are toxic and start clearing out the internal pain and suffering that is keeping you from experiencing life the way you want to.

I didn't know what it would feel like to be surrounded by 2600+ people who accepted you for who you are, celebrate you no matter if you rode every mile or not, and treated you like you belonged at every breakfast, lunch, and dinner table.
I mean I had dreamed of a place like this but never experienced it before until I decided to put it all out on the line and attempt to ride 545 miles over 7 days. It was the illusive experience I had been searching for - like that rainbow 🦄 people tell you doesn't exist but deep down you know it does and you're ready to find it so you keep believing.
I am here to tell you that it DOES exist! It is inside of you and outside of you and I am going to keep it front and center in my life. It created even more of a fire in my heart and body to create a community that empowers you to be 100% yourself 100% of the time NO shame or guilt is needed. To breakthrough the trauma, circumstances, and social constructs that are holding you back. 🔥
In this video I am sharing with you the 5 things that I feel in ❤️ with on the AIDS/LifeCycle ride. I share how these 5 things affected a deep part of me that will be forever changed. By the way, the "Love bubble" is for reals. (You'll know what I am talking about when you watch/listen) You won't be shocked when I tell you I get emotional (I'm not embarrassed or sorry about it, lol). It was a powerful journey for me.
The AIDS/LifeCycle was the highlight of my 2022 and I signed up to do it again next year. If you are thinking about riding with me next year feel free to reach out and ask me anything you want to know. I'm here.

If you have been struggling to maintain your motivation around the things you really want to do and the person you want to be then this episode is for you!
This is part two of a series where I talk about the two types of imposter syndrome that are sabotaging your ability to sustain motivation and reach your goals what ever they maybe. Oh they are can keep you from being 100% you 100% of the time no shame or guilt needed.
Creating sustainable motivation has been on my mind . Several of you have been wanting to know how I have continued to train for the Aids/Lifecycle ride, continue to create a thriving business even when things get hard and how I maintain being 100% myself 100% of the time without shame or guilt.
Identifying these two types of imposter syndrome has helped me and my clients have the life we have always dreamed of. I won't lie, it takes some deep diving into the truest parts of you, shedding off the parts that were never yours and creating a new reality and identity through self-compassion, gratitude and courage.
The two types are:
INE - I am not enough
INA - I am not aligned
If you want more details about these check out the last episode: (put link to last episode here).
These two types of imposter syndrome cannot be dealt with in the same way. In this episode I will lead you through a series of questions that will allow you to quickly identify the root and shift the mind and body to a new experience and way of reacting to the initial feelings caused by these two types of imposter syndrome.

Has imposter syndrome been sabotaging your motivation?
Motivation to show up in your life like you want too?
Motivation to show up in your business like you want too?
Motivation to workout?
Motivation to eat healthy?
Motivation to Keep the commitment to yourself to show up 100% yourself 100% of the time?
Today on Road to Radical Visibility I am going to share with the two types of imposter syndrome that could be sabotaging your motivation! INE and INA imposter syndrome.
I know it can feel really difficult to stay motivated (no seriously I do know). I have been training to ride 545 miles over 7 days in the Aids/Lifecycle ride.
You have goals, you have things you want to do, places you want to travel, feelings of living your fullest & best life and it is time for you to have it ALL.🦄
One type of Imposter syndrome sneaks in and says "your not qualified to do this", "who says you can __________(you fill in the blank) or anything else that has you swimming in the self-doubt pool long enough for a part of you to believe it as truth.
The other type of imposter syndrome is not so much about feeling like you don't have the skills, tools or gifts needed to "do" something but more like "is this all there is", "I don't really belong here, or am I just making it up", "this is not how I wanted my life to be, whose life is this anyway". This type sabotages your motivation by keeping you from taking the next step to what truly is for you.

Are your struggling with feeling motivated. You know you "should":
Get out and walk/run/ride
Fold that load of laundry
Take some time for yourself
Head to the gym
Mow the lawn
Food prep
but you just can't seem to find them motivation?
So you just end up beating yourself up, with "why can't I" or "what is wrong with me". I am here to tell you that nothing is wrong with you. The ebb and flow of motivation is normal AND you can also have sustainable motivation, no really you can.
Motivation can feel tricky. Believe me I know. I have been training for the aids/lifecycle ride for the past 4 months and my motivation has decreased and been non existent more than once and it has been intense and on point, rip rearing ready to go.
I am going to share with you the four things that can help you create sustainable motivation so that you can get off the cycle of drastic ups and downs in your feelings of motivation.
You may be surprised by these four things because they are not externally driven or received, they are internal. The start at the source...YOU and will help you create a consistent flow of motivation no matter what your goals are.
Oh and there are some great results that come from you committing to taking action on these four things such as:
🙌🏻 A Decrease in comparison to others
🦄 An elimination of the shame you may feel
🔥 Feeling like a bada** because you are doing exactly what you want to be doing
🔑 Feeling supported and knowing that your not alone
Let me know the one thing that stood out to you from this episode that you want to take away and take action on. I really want to know.

Today is my birthday and I am in LOVE with my life. I have so many people to thank for helping me get to this point in my life and in this episode of Road to Radical Visibility you will meet just one of them.
💎Warning - tears, heart felt connection and self empowerment radiates from this episode. 🦄
Simone Hawton came into my life at just the right time. I had been searching for an eating program that would feed my body, mind and soul and I found it in Simone's program Fuel for Fat Loss. I wanted to fulfill a big dream and that is to ride in the Aid/Lifecycle Ride to honor my father James Freemon but I knew it would be possible until I committed to me and the process.
There is a 🔥TRUTH BOMB 🔥that Simone drops at the 8:03 mark of what she and I both believe it truly takes to have the life and business that you want. You'll see my hands up in the air "Yessing" her statement. It's a commitment and I wonder if you are ready to make it to yourself?
This episode goes so much deeper than just how to create fat loss. Simone and I both share things we have NEVER shared before. It is raw, real and honestly breath taking and beautiful.
Simone shares with us how through all of her trials she found a way to get back up and keep going. The realization of...... (well you're going to need to listen to find that out) that ultimately saved her.
She remembers that day when she looked in the mirror and "I didn't even recognize me".
Turning 50 today feels victorious, beautiful, badass, humbling, joyous, and is met with ultimate self trust and gratitude.
If you have been struggling in your life, feeling miserable about one part or all the parts then you will be inspired by this episode. So often weight, chronic illness/pain and feelings of anxiety, overwhelm and depression are a sign that you are out of alignment with your truest way of being. It's time for you to reconnect with the truest part of you and thrive and shine.
If you're ready to explore and discover a way to start healing and fueling your body I want to invite you to the FREE masterclass coming up on the 26th and 28th of April that is all about cleansing and detoxing the body. Here's the link: https://detox.fuelforfatloss.com
When you register you'll also get her free bonus: 24 hour gut reset.

"I was like, well, holy shit, who am I then? If I'm not their mom, if I'm not their grandma, if I'm not the Raley's girl, who the hell am?! I used to be somebody before all that." she said.
Losing yourself happens more than people really want to admit. You get stuck in a pattern of doing and being and then you wake up on day saying this very thing, "Holy shit who am I"?
Then there's cultural constructs and other people with whom you are co-creating your reality with and well you lose sight of your own way of being. You get pushed, pulled and held back by the "right" way to be doing something, acting or even just being "yourself".
In this episode my former client Kimberly Kern shares her journey of returning back to her wholeness and the wake up call that made her say, "I need help".
Kimberly decided that it was time for her to stop shoving things away and create the capacity to understand why she was experiencing certain things and how she wanted to experience her life without all the guilt ,shame and other peoples expectations.
She went from - "There's something wrong with me" and "what do I need to do" to "is this mine?" (without feeling bad about herself) and "nope that's yours".
She realized that "boundaries are for me not other people!" and that is wasn't her job to fix everything just because she was told she was a "fixer".
She opened her mind to being "empathic" and understanding the deepest parts of herself with love and compassion.
AND
She experienced for the first time true freedom, joy and self-love more than she had ever thought she had the capacity to do.
If you're thinking to yourself, wow that all sound good, I want that! Reach out to me through this link and let's explore how you can create the freedom, joy, ease in life guilt and shame free. https://www.rachelfreemonsowers.com/Calendar_NorthStarCall

Are you someone who has found themselves feeling chronically overwhelmed or tired?
or maybe you feel like your emotions are spilling out all over the place,
or your find yourself just going through the motions trying to get to that next vacation, weekend, bath or glass of wine?
Don't worry you are not alone. I have been hearing this from a lot of my clients and that is why I am creating this episode.
Part of being radically visible is being able to show up as 100% yourself 100% of the time without shame or guilt and when we are out of alignment with our truest self we struggle to be 100% yourself 100% of the time.
In all the work I have done with clients these are some of the top signs they have experienced that keep them from being radically visible and being 100% themselves 100% of the time.
So those are the top 3 signs it is time to reconnect with your true self or higher self and experience the feeling of wholeness in your mind, body and soul.
If you are interested in doing this I highly recommend my Follow Your North Star Program where you learn how to identify and heal your Inner critic, find and connect with your truest self and create ultimate self trust in everything you are, say or do.
If you want to learn more about the Follow Your North Star Program reach out to me at rachelfreemonsowers@gmail.com or send me a DM.

Have you been thinking of creating a team in your business?
I hired a virtual assistant 7 months ago and I will never look back.
I was nervous, apprehensive and hesitant, I'm not gunna lie.
AND
I also knew that if I wanted to grow and create the impact I wanted to create, I needed help.
My number one concern was "how will I be able to trust them?" This is my business, my baby, my lively hood. Many days and nights of blood, sweat and tears have been poured into this business. My own genius and my heart intertwined.
AND
I also knew it was time. Hiring someone was my next step in becoming even more radically visible in business and life.
Hiring your first, second or maybe even third team member creates radical visibility in your business - NO if ands or buts about it!
In fact my VA is reading this right now, because she helps me with the Road to Radical Visibility Show/Podcast. Kind of funny. lol
What I needed to realize was that hiring someone to work with me meant that I needed to know and be clear about myself and the direction I was headed.
Whether you are partnering up with someone who will help you with coaching, technology, running the business, managing financials or helping with social media and administrative duties there are five key things you need to pay attention to before you can find your perfect match.
Although not explicitly listed these are the exact things that Jeanne, Kirsten and I identify in this episode. They are recognized in the successful relationship that Jeanne and Kirsten have built in their business and how they help others find and hire virtual assistants to help with marketing and beyond all over the globe.
Even though I didn't know them when I hired my awesome, remarkable virtual assistant, Jade in the Philippines I have learned so much about how to create even better systems. They turned me on to a more personable and user friendly software called HighLevel and provide training videos and made for you systems that help both Jade and myself love on and deliver more stellar service to our clients.
Here they are:
1. Be okay with not having to do everything. Yes, give up control. Trust in yourself equals trust in others.
2. Know yourself (strengths, quirks, communication style, loves and hates) and be ok communicating them.
3. Create systems that fit your thought processes and individual business needs. A one size fits all approach DOES NOT work.
4. Seek out resources to help guide you.
5. Remember you are building for the long haul so the bumps in communication are opportunities to find tune your skills and way of being as a leader.
If you have been thinking about hiring your first or next team member and want to get some practical and helpful resources check out Jeanne and Kirsten online. All the links are below.

Two questions for you this week.
Now, if you're having an automatic response, like, of course it's not. I'd love for you to take a pause. For the majority of people this is normal. Having our self-worth and esteem tied to what we do, how we do it and how much we do. You're not alone.
In this episode of Road to Radical Visibility we're going to explore:
What trauma driven productivity is?
How it keeps you in unproductive patterns (and you don't even know it), and
Three things that will help you uncouple from it so that you can have the clarity, confidence to take action on the things that will create a life of ease and ultimate trust in yourself.
Doing more does not equal more worth.
Doing more does not make you more deserving.
Doing more just means you are doing more, experiencing burnout more quickly, feeling drained instead of fulfilled, more tired, most often more disconnected in your body, mind and soul.
It's time to reconnect. To choose to operate from a whole different level and begin to create more ease and flow in life.

What would it feel like if you were able to be 100% you 100% of the time. Experience yourself as whole instead of a million pieces trying to just push through, get by and hold on till the next "moment of peace".
This is the question I asked my client yesterday. At first she wasn't sure but by the end of the session she said, "I would be able to take off that heavy coat and decide I don't have to be a F***'in imposter today".
I was blown away at the power and confidence in this revelation my client had by the end of our session. This is what I live for, this is why I do what I do.
So may people are stuck in the cycle of experiencing a crisis, a over stimulated nervous system and big emotions just to get a moment of "peace". In reality, this is just a chemical response that feels like peace but isn't.
The cycle of having big emotions and then shaming yourself for those big emotions, not being able to _______(you fill in the blank) and wondering what you did wrong or why you couldn't _________. Never feeling like you have "arrived". Instead of releasing the shame your mind jumps into problem solving, thinking of every little thing that could happen just to make sure you don't disappoint, let someone down, get rejected or make someone feel/do/think something you would never want them to think.
In this episode of Road to Radical Visibility I tell you the three things that you were taught to do that keep you stuck and in the cycles you crave to free yourself from.
The good news is you can and the three things I speak about in this episode will help open your eyes to the realization that there is a way to get out of the cycle.
Our culture has normalized:
❗️Compartmentalization
❗️Self-shaming
and
❗️Teaching and telling you what your "truth" is instead of allowing you to discover it for your self.
I hope this episode empowers you to stop the self-shaming, claim your own truth and know that can be 100% you 100% of the time and create the success and life you desire.

In this episode we deep dive, from the very beginning. This is part 2 to Creating Success Your Way - No shame or guilt needed.
My mentor Morgana McCabe Allan and I share with you three realizations that can help you open yourself to healing, shed the shame and guilt and step fully into a new reality in business and life.
In this episode we share some of the parts of ourselves that we have healed. I share with you the "incredible shrinking girl" and the "queen" part of me and Morgana shares the part of her that continued to attract toxic relationships (in all forms) until she created a different relationship with this part of herself.
As an LGBTQ+ entrepreneur there have been so many times in my business and life that I have struggled. I thought that I needed another experts strategy, funnel, social media templates and even their "program" to finally create success in my business.
Funny enough I didn't need any of that and you probably don't either. The ONLY thing I needed to do was to show up in my business as 100% myself and be who I was compelled to be from the inside out.
I just want to assure you that this was not an overnight process. I wasn't a 💥 and I woke up and everything started clicking. It was a process. Small steps, small belief shifting and BIG love for myself that has brought the most success in my business emotionally and financially.
For the first time in my business I feel totally aligned:
🦄I don't worry about "what" I am posting, I just post whatever I feel I want to post.
❤️ I share my work from my heart and forget about the "sales". I don't worry about where the next client is going to come from. Because they just come.
🏳️🌈 I show up as myself fully. Releasing the cultural constructs, shame and guilt because they were never mine in the first place.
AND
🙌 I wake up everyday knowing exactly what I am doing, creating my own reality and helping others do the same. Feeling free, at ease and just freaking remarkable. Side note: this peace and joy has also helped me shed over 27 lbs.
Morgana and I have made it our mission to help entrepreneurs and individuals to feel fully aligned in business and life to create success on their terms and in the ways that fit them the best.
If you have found yourself struggling. We would love to help. Feel free to reach out to either of us.

Get your seatbelts on friends. You will hear things I have only ever told my wife! I also shed a couple of tears. My mentor Morgana McCabe Allan and I speak our truth and empower you to experience your own radical visibility.
How we interact through our self-expression and receiving plays a huge role in our ability as entrepreneurs to make the impact we are wanting to make. I knew that my work was meaningful and yielded great results for the people that I worked with, I just needed to find out how to get it "out there" in a way that felt true for me. I spent so long trying to fit myself into the box of so many "gurus" or "experts" only to walk away feeling in such conflict.
In this episode we explore and identify:
❓The reasons so many people and entrepreneurs feeling like there is something wrong with them.
❓Why measuring our self worth and value by our accomplishments or how hard/far we have come is not healthy.
❓The role Courage plays in you being the person you have wanted to be without guilt, shame or embarrassment.
So many times we are told "if you just change your mindset" it will be better. I am here to tell you it is deeper than the mind. It is emotional. It is a body, heart and soul level. This is why most solutions in business and life only last for a minute and then you feel like you're right back where you started.
I wonder how many of you have beat yourself up mentally comparing yourself to someone else who appears to be successful or you walk around with continuous low/high level anxiety (worry, fear, feelings of not enough) hoping that no one finds out the "truth" about how you really feel or deal with on a daily basis.
One woman said to me, "I used to be able to put on the mask and now I can't even do that anymore, I don't know what is wrong with me". My heart went out to her. Nothing was wrong with her and yet our society and culture teaches us on the daily that there is something wrong with us if we can't "handle it" or don't ______________. You can fill in the blank.
Or maybe you are an entrepreneur like me wondering why you weren't as successful as other online businesses that you see. Notice I said, I was not as successful. I remember thinking, "Why can't I reach more people, what am I missing, what am I not doing, I guess I need to do what they are doing". All the while the inside of me was clinching because the way others did things did not match up with how I wanted to be in my business. Yet I persevered until I felt like my soul was shriveling up and dying because that is not how I wanted to "be" in the world.
I can tell you right now that the answer was not outside of myself (in the form of a strategy, funnel, or course), but inside of myself. I needed to deep dive even further. I needed to let go of all of the things I had been taught were "right" for me and truly connect with how I wanted to be and interact in the world and do that without fear, shame, guilt or imposter syndrome.

If you have found yourself feeling like you are always trying to prove something, over explaining or justifying yourself, to yourself or others then this episode of Road to Radical Visibility is for you.
In this episode I share with why you feel like you constantly have to be proving, over explaining or justifying what you want, who you want to be and how you want to live.
Hint: It's not your fault and taking more responsibility for other people feeling and thoughts is not the answer.
I share my experiences of trying to prove my value and worthiness to only end up feeling less valuable and less worthy. I would hear the same words on repeat in my head. Do more, push through, make _______ happy, you're responsible, and the list goes on.
I wonder what you were taught to say to yourself?
It's time to stop the proving, over-explaining and justifying and experience more freedom, ease and confidence in showing up exactly the way you want. Get ready to say bye bye to worry, anxiety, and the feeling of always have to do more, be more.
In this episode I give you three things that you can do today to create a feeling of safety in just being 100% you, 100% of the time.
If you know of someone that struggles with this share this episode with them. (links are below).

Your value and meaning in your life is not determined by the things you do, the money you make, what others think of you or by the things others have taught you to think about yourself. Full stop.
The value and meaning you feel in your life is created by your ability to create and return back to YOUR wholeness. To honor your truest way of being without shame, fear, doubt, guilt.
In this episode Rachel is sharing three ways that you can begin to return to your own wholeness and allow yourself to feel value and meaning in every part of your life and business.
I was meeting with a client recently and she said this.
"Rachel, I feel like the barrier that is holding me back from being fully
myself and feeling good about my life and happy about my life. And like I can be myself. Is that I feel fundamentally flawed. She went on to say, I cannot recognize that I have much meaning or value. That I mean something to people beyond the superficial things that I do for them."
If you've ever felt this way, or if you've been longing or saying to
yourself, hey, listen, part of me is missing, and I want to find that part of me, then this episode of The Road to Radical Visibility is for you.
If you have felt like you are caught up in a cycle of just doing and wonder what or whose life you are living anyway. Where did my meaning, joy, confidence or value go? Then this episode is for you.
We have been taught and even trained to believe that what we do and accomplish in this world makes us worthy of __________ (you can fill in the blank).
Throughout my whole life I tried to live up to the expectations of others. To do the thing, be the way that I was told was right, appropriate, better, more "lady like". This started the cycle of me cutting off, shoving down and attempting to eliminate parts of me that were "less valuable" to our society and the systems that exist within it.
I looked outside of myself for answers. Another course, strategy, funnel, business group or product could not do the healing. To heal I needed to deep dive into my own self and return back to wholeness.
That way of being where the inside was my strongest compass. Where I could be myself and know exactly what was right for me at any given moment and time. The feeling of safety I had always wanted.
If that type safety is what you are looking for reach out to me. There is no need to continue to live a life that is less fulfilling than you want it to be.

It was such a privilege to speak at the MLK Day event this year here in my home town Redding, California.
Every presenter and contribution was tied into the theme of:
It starts with me, shifting priorities to create the beloved community.
The beautiful community that gathered was a testament to the continued inspiration that Martin Luther King Jr. still gives today in the fight for racial justice and equality for all.
He was a true leader and his legacy continues to empower connection with heart and soul.
His words were spoke for every nationality, to feel no segregation.
Just as it started with him it starts with you and me.

You want to show up as your truest self, to speak your truth in any given situation but something always stops you.
How many times have you felt or even feel today that the another person has the power? (and maybe they never even asked for it). Maybe your boss, your peers, your friends, your family, your community, the cultural "norms" you were taught were good/appropriate/right.
Have you found yourself waiting for the "perfect timing" or the "perfect situation" before you spoke your truth?
Fear has you discombobulated and believing that it is not safe for you to be your truest self. And, that in order to feel safe in being yourself you need an external factor (person, place or situation) to make you feel safe to finally be yourself. It's almost like you are looking for permission from others/situations instead of claiming your power to be you.
You may be giving your power away and not even realizing it.
It's not about waiting for someone or something to allow/give permission/make you feel like you can be your real self. It is about learning how to trust yourself to invite them in.
Invite them in to see you the real you. This take courage that is developed in the deeper work.
In this episode I share with you the inspiration I got from Queer Eye Season 6. Ep. 2 and how it relates to you becoming radically visible in every part of your life.
I also share the three shifts that I made that helped me begin to reclaim my power and gave me the ability to be myself 100% of the time without shame, fear or apology.
Let me know what you think of this episode and watch the noted episode of Queer Eye. You'll love it.

"I want to find the parts of me I used to love, again. But I don't know how, I'm just so used to remembering, hearing and reliving the "bad" stuff. "
I know what this feels like.
As a member of the LGBTQ+, neurodiverse and female entrepreneur community I know how hard it is to live a life that is built on the realities that were told were yours but weren't. I lived my life for so many years like they were, and I suffered because of it. Just like you are now.
My heart kept shrinking, my self esteem was at the bottom of a pit and I never felt good enough. The happiness was buried and the most beautiful parts of me were lost under the burden and trauma of cultural and religious constructs. Finding my NorthStar was the way out.
I did as much self-growth as I could on my own until I found the right mentor. The mentor that had already done their own deep work and had already found their NorthStar and were actually living their TRUE reality, the one they wanted! I have done the same and it's your turn now.
Are you ready?
If you said "Hell Yes", it's time to divorce the "bad stuff" and find your NorthStar.
It's time to create a new relationship with or discover the parts of you, you love.
As a therapist for the last 18 years I have heard the "bad stuff" and there is a place for therapy AND there is also a time when a different approach is needed. Finding your NorthStar is that different approach.
It's not where you travel down memory lane and remember all the traumatized parts of yourself you know the "bad stuff" and re-traumatize your mind and body.
It's a process where you we take practical steps to explore, discover and create your reality, not the reality that you've been given by your parents, society, culture or religion is your reality. There will be some emotions, but i got you. I'll be there.
In this video I am giving you three easy ways to start creating a different reality and find your NorthStar today.
Here is the abbreviated version:
If something inside of you is saying, I am ready to “divorce” the bad stuff and find my NorthStar and the parts of me I used to love

Elena never thought she would be giving a Tedx talk that has been seen 40,000+ times and continues to help thousands of LGBTQ+ people discover their own worthiness and teach their allies how to best support them.
"It was better for my kids to have a gay mom than a dead mom. I chose to be visible and I am choosing that now. The most alive moments, the most connected to the earth moments I had was when I would tell someone, I'm a lesbian."
This episode of the Road to Radical Visibility Show/Podcast Elena Joy Thurston shares her journey to radical visibility and the painful moments as well as the beautiful moments that have inspired so many to be fully themselves in business and life.
Elena and I talk about the struggles that come with dismantling the religious and cultural constructs that we are taught from a young age to be our beliefs and therefore our identity. She shares how "severing the ties" allowed her to truly see and be herself.
She shares how she discovered the truest parts of herself and the lessons she learned that now empower her to help others in the LGBTQ+ communities and their allies through the Pride and Joy Foundation.
She is an inspiration to many and I know she will be to you also.
If you have been struggling to break free from the toxic relationships, that are often found in religious and cultural constructs or people who don't support unconditionally reach out to Elena or myself we are here to help.
Let us know if this episode has inspired you to be fully yourself or if you're an ally how you support your LGBTQ+ loved ones, friends and community members.

What would it feel like if you didn't experience the exhaustion that can come from putting yourself out there all of the time?
How would you be able to show up in your business and life?
What kinds of things would you be able to be and do with more energy?
How many more people could you serve?
Do you push, push, and push only to end up feeling like you have to stay in bed or veg out on the couch and watch Netflix for the weekend (let's be honest if not longer).
I've been there and in this episode I am going to help you see the cycle your are in and how you can get out of it for good! You started a business to make an impact and it's time for you to jump off the rollercoaster of success, burnout, success, burnout... then just more burnout or a totally change.
It can look like this:
📌You finally get yourself pumped up to shoot a video. You shoot it, awesome! Feeling great but then you don't make another one. But you know that if you created more videos your business would experience more success.
📌You speak up for yourself. Great, "I did it", you think and the next time you really want to, you feel like there is an invisible force holding you back, almost like your heart is telling you to speak but no words come out.
📌You have a great product or service to launch and you do! Fantastic, but after the launch you don't have the energy to serve the people that signed up to your program and you end up feeling "bad" about it. But you just keep on pushing through.
📌You express your heart and soul in your video and posts. You get great engagement and feedback but when it comes to write the next one something tells you it's to risky to do it 2x in a row. So you create something with just a tiny bit of your soul instead of all of it.
The you start thinking:
"I can't do this anymore"
"I can't make another decision"
"I don't even know what to say or think anymore"
"Why can't I do this"
"What do they have that I don't?"
"Why am I the only one that can't ________?
These thoughts put you back into the old patterns of contemplation, feelings of not being enough, having to "do" one more thing and in the long run create patterns that keep you from being 100% you. You even know when you show up as you things get easier, more fulfilling and confidence but the old patterns keep pulling you back.
There is a different path and in this video I invite you to take it.
It is in the "being" rather than the "doing".
The transition to the internal being instead of an external "doing" creates sustainable shifts that equal consistent results, more energy and more enjoyment in business and life.
Are you ready? Put a 🙌 in the comments below and let me know what you thought of this video.

In this episode of Road to Radical Visibility, Rachel explores and how & why you experience self-doubt right before you are about to be and show your fullest selves to the world and interact exactly the way you want to.
Rachel explores:
💥 The most common ways self-doubt shows up in business and life.
💥 Why the relationship between self-doubt and radical visibility is so strong before, during and after you decide to stand up for yourself and be yourself.
💥 Why you are not to blame and how you can move through self-doubt with more ease and confidence.
💥 How to truly honor yourself and others at the same time the way you need to.
💥 Neuroscience and how you CAN control the direction and outcome of your day and life. It is YOUR life!
It's time for you to create sustainable tools and skills that support your way of being in the world.
The way you do this is doing the "internal work" this included:
✅ Exploration and identification of our patterned way of being
✅ Un-attaching this pattern from our identity
✅ Creating a new identity and way of being
✅ Developing ULTIMATE trust in yourself - no shame, embarrassment, fear, doubt or any other B.S. anyone else wants to "give" us.
Tell me your struggles with self-doubt and how you want to be showing up in your life and business.
⚡️It could be saying "no" when you want to,
⚡️Doing something for yourself first instead of always giving, giving, giving or
⚡️It could feel like you're always looking to the next course, "magic pill", funnel, strategy or "expert" to create your success.
I want to hear your struggles, success and thoughts.

This episode is goes deep into how to show up in the world just like you want to. It is moving, compassionate, raw and real. Oh and some never before told stories show up too!
In this episode of Road to Radical Visibility Rachel Freemon Sowers and guest Jane Mann and explore how radical visibility starts and is powered by the heart and connection with all parts of you. The role our nervous system has protects us up to a certain point and how you can feel free of the shame.
We share personal stories and enter into a true connection with you. Because we are ALL connected
One of the most important ingredients to radical visibility is being brave of heart. It all starts with listening and allowing yourself to be seen and heard by yourself and then to others.
You may be feeling that murmur or banging on your heart that is telling you it's time to show up EXACTLY how you want to. Not because you should, or someone wants you to, or that is what is expected of you. Time to throw that shizzz out the door.
Fear, worry, and not being enough are just a few things that stop you from being our truest selves in the world. It is time to heal and move through to experiences our fullest way of being in business and life.
It's time for you to break out and break free from the things that are holding you back. Our somatic bodies hold onto trauma and experiences that can hold you back.
I want to personally invite you to let us know in the comments some of your experiences in your life that have held you back and help you move through to your own fullest way of living.

This first time I kissed a girl in the 4th grade. I kept is secret to avoid the shame and ridicule by my parents and the church. The people who were supposed to my safety were the ones who taught me not to accept my truest self. This taught me to have high anxiety about my truest desires and not to trust myself, because "they" knew more than me about how I should be to get to heaven. (Oh and being gay was not one of them.) Even at this young age I new that this was not my path but I was young and this was what I had to do. I couldn't speak up then (believe me I tried and ended up in detention more times than I can count) but in time I started to separate myself and regain my desired way of being in the world.
In a time when we are beginning to become aware of all of the cultural/societal/religious beliefs that have covered up who we really want to be in the world now is the time to be 100% yourself.
As an empath, neurodiverse person and a part of the LGBTQ+ community this can feel really difficult and overwhelming and I want to tell you that I am here to support you.
Being yourself 100% of the time takes courage.
Courage comes when we connect with our hearts and then allow ourselves to speak our truth to ourselves and others. This is the deepest parts of yourself.
I wonder what would courage look like for you in:
Your Business
Your Family System
Your Faith/Spirituality/Church
Your way of interacting in the world
Your Relationships
Love?
You may be feeling a desire to stop conforming and to break out of the box that you have been put in by cultural/familial/religious belief or systems that are no longer helpful. I want to empower you to play with the possibility of the freedom you may feel if you spoke from your heart.
Radical visibility shows up for each one of us in it's own way. It's time for you to develop your own formula for radical visibility and success in your life.

In this episode of Road to Radical Visibility I share with you the #1 place to start when you want to begin to show up 100% as yourself unapologetically in your life with strength and confidence.
Speaking your truth and showing up as yourself can feel overwhelming and confusing and yet they are at the very core of becoming radically visible to yourself and others. Radical visibility isn't just speaking up when you are angry, frustrated or annoyed it is the ability to know how you want to interact energetically in the world and doing that 100% of the time independent of what others opinions, thoughts, feelings or expectations are. It requires us to develop self-respect. I believe when we act respectfully to ourselves we are respectful to others.
So many times throughout our lives we are taught to quiet our voices, to only speak when we are spoken to, to only contribute when you have something that will add value and it doesn't end there. This continues as we try to maintain our roles in family systems, jobs and friend groups. Redefining the way you want to be is scary, hard and can feel overwhelming and speaking up can feel like a risk and I want you to know you are not alone.
When you know what is a "yes please" and "no thank you" in your life you:
Show up as your authentic self,
Speak your truth without apology,
Know how you to respond instead of react,
Trust yourself to know the exact right timing,
Feel a deep calm within you, and
Your path becomes very clear.
There is an internal strength, knowing and fortitude that allows you to be passionate about your life and business.
You feel fulfilled and free.
I would love to hear what you want to say "Yes please" & "No thank you" to in the comments below.
Free Yourself to be YOU!

In this episode of Road to Radical Visibility, Rachel Freemon Sowers explores the three types of trauma that are causing you to stay small in life and business. Understanding yourself is the first step in developing radical visibility to speak your truth, create the impact you want in your business and life.
Have you been feeling like:
You're ready for more in business & life?
You're done conforming to what others want, feel, think or expect of you?
You're ready to stop believing everything you were taught and decide what you think, feel and want?
If you answered yes to any of the above I encourage you to listen to this episode. I know how it can feel. I tell the stories of discrimination by the very people I was helping. I felt oppressed and just got used to it.
You can free yourself when you realized the majority of what you claim to be true is NOT your truth.

Has anyone ever told you to just "Fake it till you make it"?
I have and it seems to be a common phrase that is told to people when they have a desire to be or do something but are too scared, afraid, or nervous to do it. The theory is that eventually you will "con" your mind into believing that this is the reality and then starting being and doing what you want.
BUT.. and this is a big BUT (lol) reminds me of the song, "I love big butts and I will not lie..." I digress, focus Rachel focus!
It is not sustainable nor is it the fastest way to rewire your brain, because it is just not about your brain. It's about your brain, body and spirit. A wholistic approach.
Creating confidence on camera is not a "fake it or make it" gig. It is created by shifting the emotions, thoughts and beliefs that are holding you back. It's time to bust through them.
In this RFS Live Show I will be sharing with you a more sustainable and efficient way to create lasting shifts and change. It is what I teach my clients who are able to show up as their fullest selves on camera and in their lives. Because we know that it is all connected. Mind, body and spirit.
If you're ready to never have to hear or say to yourself, "___________(insert your name here), just fake it till you make it" then tune into the show this week.

💫 How to be Vulnerable on Camera and Feel Good About it:https://youtu.be/FDP4mPXJIRE
💫 What's Holding You Back From Feeling Good Enough on Video - 5 Insights: https://youtu.be/NM6n37Mdv1g
Are you avoiding or not creating video content because it makes you feel vulnerable?
Vulnerability can look/feel like:
Perfectionism
Fear of Rejection
Not Enough
"I don't have what I need to do it professionally"
"I don't know where to start"
and many more ways of feeling.
The good thing is that there is nothing wrong with you and this week on the RFS Live Show I will be telling you why that is.
As a business owner you know that if you could share your story and gifts more with video you could reach more people but it just feels too risky.
Well, don't worry, i got you.
It is possible to feel and be vulnerable on video AND feel good about it.
Vulnerability is the path to a deeper connection with yourself and your audience. It allows people to see and hear you in a different way. In these moments you are a reflection to your audience of strength and courage. (I am not exaggerating, just droppin' a truth bomb!)
You may be thinking easy for you to say, you're so confident on camera. Well I haven't always been confident on camera. This way of being has taken work, love, acceptance, risk and given lots of reward.
Video is the #1 way for you to authentically and quickly build deeper relationships with others.
If you're ready to feel confident about being vulnerable and speaking your truth then I want to invite you to this weeks RFS Live Show.

⚡️What's Holding You Back From Feeling Good Enough on Video - 5 Insights: https://youtu.be/NM6n37Mdv1g
Experiencing ease, flow and confidence in finding your voice and speaking your truth with mediums such as video is possible.
As a psychotherapist for the last 18 years and my work with 1000's of individuals has given me some insight into what truly holds us back especially as women from confidently and fully being ourself in the online world and beyond.
This week on the RFS Live Show I am going to share them with you.
This is what I know:
✅Your voice needs to be heard
✅Your message needs to be heard
✅Your being needs to been seen
✅Your desire to show up fully as you needs to be realized.
What if you don't? You may experience:
➖a persistent, nagging feeling like there is something missing
➖a feeling that you have sacrificed for to long and want to stop ignoring, cutting off, numbing or demeaning parts of yourself that want to see the light again
➖consistent little of big feelings of self-doubt, fear, shame, unworthiness
and
➖a constant struggle from inside of you that creates confusion and hides your truth.
If you have felt any of the above I invite you to join me tonight on my YT & inside my FB Group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/radic... where I will we will be talking about what may be holding you back from speaking your truth and showing up in the online space with video.

It's time that we stop looking to the "experts" to tell us what we should say, be and do on video and beyond. The only way you will feel aligned with your business is if you are being your truest self. There are a lot of people that can give you strategies, funnels, templates and processes but until you begin to honor your truest way of being it will feel like a struggle. This deeper knowing of yourself will help you know exactly what you need in order to create the business and life you want.
Being your truest self on video, in your business and in your life is how you will create impactful content that connects you with the people needing to hear your message. This is a way of being that feeds your soul so that you can continue to do the important work that you do. Learning how to be, speak and lean into you truest way of being can feel vulnerable and risky but it is the sweet spot. If you have been feeling timid about fully being yourself in the online world, on video or in your life I invite you to listen to this episode.
But Rachel you say it's not that easy,
I know believe me I know AND
I also know that your mission is too important to keep a secret.
We are waiting to see you. Your smile, your eyes, knowing that you see us too.
We are waiting to hear you. Your laugh, your crying, your heart.
We are waiting to communicate with you. Your words, your body, your heart.
We are waiting to see us in you.

Join me and my guest Cheri Morris founder of @EvolveConsciously for this week's show "Fear based thinking - ain't no one got time for it".
This show is going to be chocked full of inspiration🦄 , ah ha moments 😲 , passion and fun. Both Cheri and I love a 🎤 !
This is the episode for you if you have a burning passion in your heart to do something but have hesitated to take the leap.
"Just be you", she said and I was like yeah, I don't think so.
"Just do it, push through the fear", she said and I was like I don't know how.
And even when I got around to pushing through my message did not come across like I wanted it to.
You see I haven't always been the way I am now on video. It has taken a lot of:
❤️Self love
🔑internal work
and
🔥courage to decide that my mission was greater than my fear.
Being authentic and showing up as yourself can feel very risky, but it does not mean that is the reality.
Have you ever shot a video or gone live only to leave the experience feeling embarrassed, deflated and saying to yourself, "Well, you bombed that. I won't be doing it again for a long time".
Or maybe you decided to give it another go but still struggle to communicate clearly your message to those who need it the most.
These thoughts and feelings are not uncommon but the choice to engage and stay in those feelings is your choice. I know this may sound harsh but it is the truth. Sorry not sorry.
You see these feelings can be temporary unless you decide to
👉 invite them into your space,
👉 sit them on the couch🛋️
👉 give them some popcorn🍿 and
👉 ask them to hang for a while.
Whenever you decide to show up with more vulnerability and share more of yourself you are taking a risk but it does not have to feel risky.
You CAN feel 💥confident 💥and experience the multitude of rewards that come along with the risk.
If you are tired of feeling the fear, make sure to check out this RFS Live show episode were we have some real talk about vulnerability, the risk vs. the reward and how to overcome those feelings and make your vision and impact a reality with video.
It's time for women create ultimate trust in yourself! It's time for women to develop a way to trust themselves that is sustainable, creates freedom and releases them from what is holding them back from expressing, being and living in the world just the way they want to.
It's time to stop bending, manipulating, fitting and shoving yourself into ways of being that are contrary to the way your heart, soul, and body are wanting to interact in the world.
It is time to ditch all the expectations that have been put on you by society, culture, religion, familial dysfunction and anything/anyone else and say "No thank you".
If you are ready to:
✨uncovering what holds you back from speaking your truth.
✨tapping into the reality that you know what is best for you and
when you trust yourself you naturally create the impact in the world you want to
create.
✨feeling abundant in your energy, time and being.
✨making decisions with very little self-doubt if any at all and if self-doubt does come
up quickly know exactly what to do to find your truth.
✨seeing yourself as the courageous, heart driven, intelligent and beautiful being that
you are.
Time to show up!
If you are a woman who has been struggling to trust yourself or you're ready to take your self-trust to the next level watch this episode.

Help me welcome my guest Holly Blazina, founder of Bite-Sized Lifestyle to the Rachel Freemon Sowers Live show this week.
Holly and I met through a Facebook group. I have to tell you I meet some of the most kickass women in some of these groups. Okay, back on track. Holly is not your average gut specialist. Her experiences, talents and skills I believe create the perfect combination of mind, body and soul awareness. Plus I love me some Ayurvedic medicine practices. I was fortunate enough to learn about it in my PhD program.
Holly Blazina is an Ayurvedic gut health specialist, Yogini and flamenco guitarist who found her kryptonite in chronic fatigue, candida, food sensitivities and insomnia. She spent nearly 25 years figuring out how to get her life back so that you can have yours, too. Now, she’s a creative powerhouse in her 50’s with energy to burn.
Holly helps people with IBS, food sensitivities and microbiome issues get to the bottom of their digestive struggles with 1:1 consultations and her Gutsy Yoga member program.
If you have been struggling with your health make sure to check out this episode and hear how your gut health plays a MAJOR role in your mental, physical, emotional and spiritual health and wellness.
THIS IS THE GOOD NEWS!
I spoke with a woman recently who like so many women I speak to believed that she had to give up her emotional and mental wellness in her business for emotional and mental health in her personal life.
"Rachel, what I really need is BOTH - emotional (personal) and business support, kind of like a business therapist. I have been looking for someone who can understand my emotions in my personal and business life. Each one is affecting the other.
I have the education and experience but I know I have some emotional stuff too. I want to handle them both at the same time. I have a dream to use my love of art in my work and create an income that allows me focus on my business, family and myself. "
Women are craving a holistic approach to their lives and this includes business and it's time to have it.
In this RFS Live Show episode I am talking about how this can happen and some clear steps you can take to create sustainable foundational shifts so that you can get out of the survival and suffering and return back to yourself and experience the business and life you want.
It is possible!
In this episode I give you my 5 go to resources when I am needing to create content in a "jiffy". For all you youngn's that means quickly.
These are my go-to's no matter whether I am doing a live or recorded video. Plus they also help me stay focused on attracting my ideal clients and creating sales from my videos immediately and in the future.
In this video Rachel Freemon Sowers and her guest, Clare Sente, Sexual Empowerment Coach and founder of Empowered Enchantress and I have some real talk about sex, pleasure and intimacy. Clare’s passion is helping women feel confident and sensually connected to their bodies.Clare loves to share the wisdom she has learned from her mistakes and her study of Tantra to help other women and men develop a healthy relationship with their bodies and enjoy sexual confidence.
In this RFS Live Show episode we explore:
Why sex, intimacy and pleasure are important,
What keeps women from experiencing it the way they want, and
How women can connect/reconnect with themselves in an intimate, sensual and pleasurable way.
Don't worry, we aren't doing any demos.😂
This episode is real and honest. If you have found yourself putting the "brakes" on your pleasure and intimacy (not only sex), wanting more but afraid to say so or find yourself thinking about it a lot, craving it (sex, intimacy, pleasure), you are not alone.
It’s time to talk about it. It's time to talk about sexual compatibility and how to find out more about how you like to experience sex, intimacy, and pleasure, and communicate about it so that you can experience more connection, fun and passion.
I share my results from the Sexual Temperament Questionnaire (developed in 2015 by Emily Nagoski Ph.D.) and how sexually compatible my wife and I are. It was fun. You should try it.

Are you tired of muscling and pushing through things?
Have you numbed your intuition by constantly trying to accomplish and experience success?
Are you wanting to experience a different way of being?
A way of being that allows:
✨ you to honor yourself,
🦄 your way of learning,
🙌 your way of knowing,
🔥 your way of creating a sense of confidence in every part of your life?
Well you can have that way of being if you are willing to release what you believe to be true for yourself and reconnect with the inner most parts of you.
In this video we explore the benefits and consequences to muscling and pushing through things and how when we take this type of action consistently it leads to feeling out of balance and often contributes to increased self-doubt, low-self esteem, indecisiveness and numbing of our ability to tell the difference between fear and intuition.
