I still remember the first time I saw one of Cassey Ho’s YouTube videos. Her bright energy, unapologetic authenticity, and joyful workouts hooked me—and millions of others.

So when she agreed to come on the podcast, I knew we weren’t just going to talk about leggings and lunges.

We were going deep. And y’all… we went there.

In this episode, you’ll hear a side of Cassey that isn’t often shown in filtered highlight reels. She opened up about what it really felt like to be publicly harassed online, how it led to a monumental YouTube policy change, and why her sensitivity has become her greatest strength in both business and life.

Cassey and I talked about:

• 🔥 What it’s like to feel everything so deeply—and how it shapes decision-making as a CEO
• 💔 How she weathered a massive wave of online hate (yes, it involved bananas…)
• 🧠 The intersection of logic and emotion—and why both are needed to build something meaningful
• ✨ Why vulnerability is not a liability but a secret weapon
• 🧵 The “cloud hoodie” as the entrepreneur uniform (and why comfort + confidence is a vibe)

She shares how being an emotional person doesn’t make her weak—it makes her wise. While I tend to operate from high logic and analytics, Cassey reminds us that feeling deeply and caring intensely can fuel powerful creativity and leadership.

Whether you’ve ever questioned if you’re too much, or you’ve had to navigate tough moments that made you second-guess your worth, this conversation will remind you that your truth, your voice, and your sensitivity have power.

There is no “one” right way to succeed.

There are many paths—and this episode celebrates them all.

So wherever you are in your business journey, whether you’re crying in your office after a hater comment or celebrating a quiet win in yoga pants… Cassey and I want to remind you: You’re not alone. And you’re doing better than you think.

Press play and feel seen, heard, and supported. 💕
