Confidence, Empowerment & Personal Branding Secrets from an Ex-Exotic Dancer With Shaylnn Lavelle

This week I'm joined by Shaylnn Lavelle: a former exotic dancer turned digital nomad and empowerment coach for women. Shay’s life has been a testament to the power of reinvention; she walked away from a life of addiction and got sober at 19 with no safety net, later she entered the underground worlds of money, sex, and power as a stripper, where she earned a B.A. in Business by day, while dancing at night. She now guides others through the death and rebirth process, teaching identity work, embodiment, creative self-expression and business. Her work helps people shed old versions of themselves and step into the lives they’re truly meant to live. We talk: - Shaylnn’s early life: growing up in an immigrant family, moving to the USA without speaking any English and how creativity became her safe space. - Becoming rebellious as a teen, navigating drugs and alcohol and then getting sober at 19. - Her first experience entering a strip club and what drew her to want to be there. - The power of stepping into a new identity: an alter ego, a striper name or a brand name. - How she learned to use her business-smarts to conserve her creative energy as a stripper, and now far beyond that: working smarter, not harder. - How to feel confident creating and sharing your work or yourself - Taking the leap to move abroad, even when everyone around you is saying otherwise. …and loads more as always!
