Ep 60 - How to Have Raving Fans and Lead a Meaningful Community with Lauren Golden
Have you ever felt a calling to start something meaningful—but didn’t know where to begin?
In this episode, Shana sits down with Lauren Golden, founder of the Free Mama Movement, to talk honestly about fear, confidence, and what it really takes to build a movement from the ground up.
In this episode, you’ll learn:
- Why feeling “not ready” doesn’t mean you’re not called
- How confidence is built through action, not waiting
- Why your first idea doesn’t have to be your forever idea
- How fear of regret can be a powerful motivator
- The importance of starting small and talking about your vision
- Why “unfinished” projects are not a waste of time
That calling you keep feeling isn’t random—and it’s not going away. This episode is an invitation to stop waiting for permission and start nurturing the idea that’s been placed on your heart. Small steps, imperfect starts, and many mini wins can lead to something far bigger than you ever imagined.
