Episode Description from the Publisher

If empowerment feels harder than it should, the problem might not be you; it might be isolation.We've got an incredibly special guest for this episode -- someone who deeply shaped the way I move through the world. I would like to heartily welcome theatre artist and community builder, Angela Marcum (she/her) -- who also happens to be my mom!In this episode, we talk about where my belief in beauty and community actually comes from, and how those values got built long before the Empowerment Studio ever existed.This is a conversation about being seen. About building spaces where people feel like they belong. About why doing it alone isn’t actually the goal.The way you build community changes everything -- and we were never meant to do this alone!The apple doesn't fall far from the tree on this one, folks. This is a fun episode to tune into if you want to see where it all began.To contact our guest (in case you want to collaborate with her!) -- https://angelamarcum.com/🤳🏼 Get our FREE selfie guide: https://empowermentphotographer.com/selfie🔗 Sign up for the #SelfietoSelfLove Challenge: selfietoselflove.com📸 Follow us on Instagram: @empowermentstudio__🌐 Learn more about our boudoir sessions and Empowerment Experience: empowermentphotographer.com👥 Join our Facebook Group: The Empowerment Studio
