Ep. 283 - Why You Need to Start the Thin...

Melody Pourmoradi
About this episode

What if the thing you're dreaming about is waiting for you to just start — messy, imperfect, and straight from the heart?


In this special 5-year anniversary episode of the Empowering Her podcast, I’m sharing the truth about starting scared, honoring your inner voice, and how taking imperfect action can lead to personal growth, transformation, and a ripple effect of empowerment.


  • [00:00] Reflections from the wisdom tooth rollercoaster — for all the caregivers out there, I see you
  • [04:10] Celebrating five years of Empowering Her (and why we don’t do this enough)
  • [11:35] How I started with just a voice memo — and how you can start too
  • [17:45] Your voice, your story, your message: the world needs it
  • [24:20] Ditching perfection and people-pleasing so you can say yes to what’s on your heart
