Community is being redefined at a moment when burnout, isolation, and constant productivity are leaving many women disconnected from themselves and each other. In this episode, Kara Duffy sits down with Porsha Ellis, CEO of Let It Break, to explore why women are craving deeper, more intentional spaces, and how community can become a catalyst for personal growth, wellness, and meaningful change. Porsha shares her journey from building creative agencies to leading a women-centered community rooted in self-awareness, service, and care. Together, they unpack the pressure to “do it all,” the importance of slowing down, redefining success beyond titles, and why giving back through mentorship, service, and organizations like Compton Girls Club, can shift how we show up in our lives and leadership. This conversation examines what it means to break old patterns, reconnect with purpose, and build communities that support the whole woman. 00:00 Introduction to the Guest: Porsha Ellis 01:02 Porsha’s Background, Career & Where She’s Based 02:18 What Is Let It Break?
