Women’s History Month starts next week, and we wanted to start the conversation early. March often focuses on celebrating women in the past, but we also want to spotlight women making an impact today and help you build a steady stream of female influence all year long.

In this episode of No Filter, No Apologies, Katy and Rebecca share the women who shaped how they think and lead, personally and professionally. They talk about mentorship in real life, learning from women through books and examples, and how to build a “learning network” that helps you grow as a leader without performative framing.

In this episode, we cover:

• Early influences that shaped our confidence and leadership style
• The difference between celebrating women and learning from women
• Books and authors that shaped our career decisions and ambition
• How to find mentors and role models (even when your schedule is packed)
• A practical way to build your network through intentional outreach

If you’re a woman in corporate America or building your own path and you want more inspiration, more strategy, and more support, this episode is for you.

Many professional women experience burnout in corporate America because they are capable, reliable, and willing to step up.

In this episode of No Filter, No Apologies, Katy and Rebecca explore how being “good at your job” often becomes a career trap for women in leadership. From invisible labor to emotional exhaustion, they unpack why competence doesn’t always lead to promotion.

They share personal stories about:

• Workplace burnout
• Taking on unpaid emotional and operational labor
• Becoming indispensable instead of promotable
• Losing career momentum
• Rebuilding identity after layoffs

You’ll learn how to protect your time, advocate for your growth, and build a sustainable career without sacrificing yourself in the process.

If you’re a woman feeling stuck, exhausted, or overlooked at work, this episode is for you.

You asked, so we delivered.

In this episode, Katy and Rebecca flip the script and interview each other so you can finally get the full backstory: how their careers crossed four times over nearly 14 years, what built the trust between them, and why they intentionally came together to create No Filter, No Apologies.

They get real about what shaped their leadership styles, how directness gets misunderstood (especially for women), and the moments that pushed both of them from corporate success into entrepreneurship. From navigating motherhood and ambition to building confidence, boundaries, and purpose, Katy and Rebecca share the experiences that led them here.

If you’ve ever felt like you’re juggling too much, shrinking to fit the room, or second guessing your own ambition, this episode is for you.

In this episode, we cover:

• How they met, separated, and reconnected across 14 years
• Why blunt honesty builds psychological safety
• Balancing personal life, ambition, and leadership
• What corporate life taught them about politics, boundaries, and time
• Why women need real mentorship, not corporate polish
