Talk about a 360-degree moment, Maddie was one of the first people to encourage me to start a podcast, and having her sit down with me to be on said podcast was just a pinch-me moment. Maddie has created a brand built on showing up authentically and in this episode, we talk about how she’s done that and why showing up as your most authentic self allows you to build true genuine connections.

Here’s what we talked about in this episode:

-How showing up honestly and authentically can connect you to others (even through social media.)
