A podcast for women everywhere trying to figure it out. Join women from around the world as they share their personal stories, wisdom, and insights on navigating life’s highs and lows. ‘How to Be a Woman’ is your go-to podcast for heartfelt conversations that uplift, inspire, and remind you that you’re never alone. Together, we’re building a stronger, more connected community of women, one story at a time.
Tiffany Orner walked into this conversation and I knew within seconds she was the real deal. She's a third generation military woman, Air Force veteran, entrepreneur and community connector who will be the first to tell you she didn't start out this way. She started in a 500 square foot apartment, lights off, telling her kids it was because of the rain. What she did next is the whole story. Tiffany gets honest about the season of life she calls her hot mess era, the rooms where her ideas got shut down, and the moment she stopped waiting for someone to rescue her. If you have ever made yourself smaller so someone else could feel more comfortable, pull up a chair. This one is for you.

Finding Joy In Imperfection
From pageant stages and Beverly Hills boutiques to the beautifully imperfect world of motherhood, Anna takes us on a candid journey through perfectionism, people pleasing, and the liberating power of letting it all go. In this episode, she opens up about navigating mean girls at every age, finding sobriety, battling chronic illness, and the terrifying moment a sick newborn in a COVID ward cracked her world wide open and set her free. A former Miss USA International who never felt good enough, Anna has traded burnout for grace, gratitude, and a front-row seat at her own life. Her story is a reminder that you don't have to have it all, just the right things at the right time. This is not just about choosing imperfection. It's about one woman learning that joy isn't something that happens to you. It's something you hunt for, find, and throw like confetti.
