🎙 BONUS EPISODE – If you need a laugh, a dose of wisdom, and a reminder that quiet strength is still strength… this one’s for you.

Beaky is back in this 12-minute bonus episode where we cover:

What she’d put on a billboard for the world to see 🌍
The advice her 12-year-old self really needed
Why believing in yourself trumps talent (every. single. time.)
The art of standing up for yourself without yelling
Worms, lunch rules, and invisible superpowers (trust us, it makes sense)

This is the kind of episode that’ll lift your spirits and remind you that being powerful doesn’t always mean being loud. Sometimes it means being steely, stubborn, and showing up in tweed with a killer picnic.

💥 Don’t forget to check out Beaky’s full episode (Ep. 53) if you want to belly laugh your way through an hour of stories, sass, and serious life lessons.
