Episode Details

In this episode we are speaking with Empowerment & Leadership Coach, Andrea Johnson.  Andrea is The Intentional Optimist: a Professional Encourager, Women's Empowerment Coach, Speaker and Podcaster.

Andrea's work is equipping and empowering female leaders to step away from cultural expectations, trust their own ability to think critically, create imaginatively and lead effectively. She helps strong women uncover their voice and embrace their story while staying true to their own spiritual compass. Andrea uses her personal growth philosophy and plan, Intentional Optimism to teach and coach, as it provides the framework for how we do what we do. It's the attitudes and mindsets we employ and embody to live out our own goals and dreams with excellence. 

Her personal story of childhood obesity, bulimia and depression, early menopause, gastric bypass surgery and even adoption, are all threads in the lovely tapestry of her journey leading her right here.

In this episode we discuss:

1) The Intentional Optimist, her brand, how it started and evolved over the years to now. Andrea has been on a journey of learning how to be free to be herself and in the process is opening up so many opportunities by showing other women what is possible.

2) Andrea shares her story of what can change when we are free to be ourselves and how that can uncover the leader that we all have inside of ourselves.
