This is a very special episode for me as I introduce you to a dear friend and member of my team, Emma Price.

Emma is an educator, speaker, and advocate whose work explores motherhood, disability, infertility, and resilience. With over twelve years in elementary education, she began her career as a classroom teacher and later became a private tutor specializing in literacy and executive functioning, helping students build confidence and independence.

Emma now serves as my amazing Executive Assistant here at The Big Talk and makes it possible for me to support leaders globally in sharing their voices on major stages.

She has spoken internationally on disability, access to education, resilience, and the power of desire, bringing a grounded, deeply human perspective to conversations about life transitions and rebuilding identity after adversity.

In this episode, we'll explore:

Why resilience is relative to each person's experience
Emma's experience of speaking from healing, not wounds, and how this can impact your speaker journey
How we successfully navigate working together while maintaining our friendship
The reason your desire signals what's possible for you, and why overcoming limiting beliefs is ongoing work
