What if the habits that once kept you safe are the very things now holding you back?

In this episode of UnCeiling You, Natalie sits down with Jennifer Gligoric, ethical entrepreneur, business strategist, and Asgardian Minister, to explore how early survival strategies can quietly shape leadership long after the original threat is gone.

Jennifer shares her journey from teenage homelessness to global leadership spaces, and the moment she realized that invisibility, once necessary for survival, had become a hidden limiter to her impact.

This is not a conversation about confidence or mindset.

It’s about nervous system patterns that outlive their usefulness—and how resetting your internal pace is what allows presence, visibility, and sustainable leadership to emerge.

This week, right before Thanksgiving — a time when so many women already carry the emotional, logistical, and relational load for their families — a major federal rule was announced reclassifying several women-dominated professions as “non-professional.”

Nursing, teaching, social work, physical therapy, occupational therapy, speech-language pathology, and physician assistant programs will lose access to Graduate PLUS loans beginning July 1, 2026.

This change affects workforce pipelines, access to care, financial risk, and the emotional landscape for the women who lead in these fields.

In this episode, we break down:

• What the new rule actually changes
• Why the impacted professions are overwhelmingly women-led
• The real-world consequences for care, education, and community services
• Why your nervous system may have reacted to this news
• How to stay grounded, clear, and steady when external ceilings rise
• How to take action without urgency or burnout

This is not a political episode — it is a leadership episode.
It’s about staying steady when the world undervalues the work women carry, and leading with clarity under fire.

What if the boldest career move you can make isn’t a yes — but a no?

In this powerful episode of UnCeiling You, Natalie sits down with Stacie Shifflett, a woman who has rewritten what leadership looks like in rooms where she was never “supposed” to hold power.

From turning down multiple offers from Booz Allen…
to negotiating work on her own terms…
to helping lead a $50 million acquisition without a college degree…
to walking away from lucrative roles that didn’t align with her values…

Stacie’s career is a masterclass in self-trust, boundaries, and courageous reinvention.

This episode will challenge the myth that success is built through sacrifice and saying yes.

Instead, you’ll learn how the right boundaries create clarity, authority, and sustainable leadership.
