Brief background on Queen Victoria – mom, marathoner, trainer, instructor, holistic living advocate, opera singer with a master’s in classical voice, and a military spouse. Her story is all about embracing change, being your own advocate, recognizing when to walk away from things that no longer serve you. She emphasizes the importance of setting boundaries, valuing yourself, and celebrating small victories. Her advice to moms: it’s okay to say no and our favorite - put yourself on timeout. She also shares a hilarious story of her first week in NYC—face-planting on the subway stairs, shattering her phone, and getting an unforgettable New Yorker welcome.

Episode 3 - Stop playing small, Play BIG

Why do we shrink ourselves? In this episode of My Turn, Jackie and Dani dive into how we’ve been conditioned to play small—whether from childhood, culture, or fear of ruffling feathers. We’ll explore the line between humility and hiding, share stories of stepping into our power, and give practical tips to take up space—physically, emotionally, and professionally. Plus, NYC quirks, wait times, and the things we just accept as New Yorkers. It’s time to stop playing small.

This is our first episode! Shaking out the nerves and diving right in! That's what is REAL, right? Can't wait to celebrate our friends in our future episodes. My Turn is the podcast for the people—a celebration of ordinary lives and extraordinary stories.

We're done with celebrity advice that feels out of touch. Instead, we're amplifying the voices of real people, sharing relatable experiences, and having the conversations everyone else is thinking but not saying. From heartfelt moments to hilarious observations, we’re here to shine our lights and help others do the same. It’s our turn… and yours too.
