There was a time I truly wondered if I had become invisible. COVID had shut the world down—and it felt like my life had shut down with it. I had been laid off and dismissed by a company I thought I would retire with. I was building my own business, but I’d kept that corporate training career as my Plan B. My safety net. Then the safety net disappeared. My dog died. I was injured after slipping off my roof and a 10-foot ladder. I got long-term COVID. The stages went dark. Performances stopped. Even the women’s ministry work I loved came to a halt. So I did what I’ve learned to do when life changes the script: I learned. I built. I created. I taught myself music production and DAW technology. We built a recording studio. I developed skills I never would have had time to learn before. But underneath all that productivity? There was grief, sadness, confusion, fear and depression. I remember being on my knees praying, feeling so forgotten, irrelevant and invisible. And then…words came. Then a melody... from this ache. Soon after, I had the joy of connecting on Zoom with an incredible rockstar in Australia. Two people on opposite sides of the world discovered we were walking through so many of the same emotions. And something clicked for me: The world is much smaller than we think. Your voice can reach someone you may never have imagined meeting. Your story can cross oceans. Your pain can become connection. Together, we wrote a song that began in sadness… but grew into hope, relationship and possibility. And then something neither of us expected happened. That little song born during one of the loneliest seasons of my life began getting attention—including taking us all the way to Australian prime-time television. Think about that. I felt invisible, yet my voice was traveling around the world. That season helped awaken the B.A.D.D.A.S.S. Lioness in me. And that’s why I’m bringing back one of the episodes that means so much to me: 🎙️ Episode 46: Quiet Warrior Rising — How to Reclaim Your Fierce Voice If you’ve ever felt forgotten… If life has knocked the wind out of you… If you’ve wondered whether your voice, your dream, or even you still matter… Please listen. Because sometimes the season that feels like it is silencing you is actually teaching you how to ROAR. And sometimes what begins as heartbreak becomes a ripple you could never have planned. There is always hope. 🎵 Listen to the song that came out of this extraordinary chapter of my life: https://open.spotify.com/track/0runMYbU7ScOtiyp5UFz41?si=1e1ae315da99435a From Quiet Warrior to ROARING Lioness. 🦁 Your voice still matters.

What if the story you’ve been afraid to tell is the very story someone else needs to hear? In this powerful PART 2 of The Rise & Roar with the Badass Lioness, international speaker, bestselling author, TV host, and Story-to-Stage™ strategist Ginine Emily Smith sits down with Deanna Powell of a top tier podcast 'Intrepid Storytelling' for an honest conversation about courage, visibility, healing, and the responsibility that comes with owning your voice. Deanna reveals how some of the most painful chapters of her life became the foundation for her purpose—and why sharing your story is not about reliving the pain, seeking attention, or performing vulnerability. It is about transforming what happened to you into something that can serve others. Together, Deanna and Ginine explore the difference between simply telling a story and creating a moment people can feel, remember, and carry with them. They discuss what it takes to move beyond fear, silence the inner critic, develop authentic stage presence, and communicate your message with conviction. Because getting the stage is not the win. Owning the moment is. This conversation is for every leader, speaker, author, entrepreneur, and courageous human who knows there is more inside them—but has been waiting for permission to step forward. You do not have to be completely healed to help someone heal. You do not have to be fearless to use your voice. And you do not need a perfect story to create a powerful ripple. Your story is your evidence. Your voice is your instrument. And one courageous yes could change more lives than you will ever know.

YOUR STORY IS MORE THAN WHAT HAPPENED TO YOU. IT MAY BE ONE OF YOUR MOST POWERFUL ASSETS. We all have a story. But there’s a difference between simply having a story… and knowing how to use it to create connection, credibility, influence and impact. In this episode of the B.A.D.D.A.S.S. Lioness Podcast, Ginine Emily Smith explores why storytelling is sacred—and why the very experiences you once thought disqualified you may become the evidence that qualifies you to help someone else. Your scars aren't signs of weakness. They're evidence. Evidence that you survived. Evidence that you learned. Evidence that you have something worth saying. From the mirror to the mic, Ginine shares how owning your story can free you from shame, silence the inner bullies, and transform painful experiences into purpose. But healing is only the beginning. With decades of experience in front of and behind the microphone, Ginine has spent years studying one question: What makes someone unforgettable? Because everyone has a story. Knowing how to use that story is what turns experience into influence—and takes you from “Nice story” to “You blew me away.” Whether you're a woman leader, entrepreneur, speaker, author, coach, or changemaker, your story can become one of your greatest assets—helping you build trust, differentiate yourself, grow your visibility, create opportunities, and make a meaningful ripple in the lives of others. Because it isn't enough to be brilliant. People have to notice and remember your brilliance. READY TO GO FROM UNKNOWN TO UNFORGETTABLE?

Have you ever looked in the mirror and wondered, "When did I lose myself?" Maybe you're successful. Maybe you're the strong one. Maybe everyone else thinks you have it all together. But deep inside, something whispers, "There has to be more than this." In this deeply personal episode, Ginine Emily Smith shares why hiding doesn't always look like fear—it often looks like overachieving, people-pleasing, perfectionism, and carrying everyone else's burdens while quietly abandoning your own heart. This isn't about fixing yourself. It's about remembering yourself. Together, we'll begin the journey of laying down the armor, rediscovering your voice, and taking the first courageous step toward the woman God created you to be. Because you don't have to earn your worth. You simply have to come home. #RiseAndRoar #StoryToStage #Leadership #WomenInBusiness #PersonalGrowth #Legacy #PurposeDriven #BADASSLioness #Impact #Transformation Ginine wants to hear your story- No pressure!

Who has changed your life the most? Was it the celebrity... Or the teacher who believed in you? The billionaire... Or the single mom who refused to give up? The influencer... Or the recovery sponsor who answered the phone at 2:00 a.m.? Our culture measures success by followers, fame, and recognition. But what if we've been measuring significance all wrong? In this episode of The Rockstar Ripple Effect, Ginine Emily Smith explores why some of the greatest heroes never make headlines—and why the most meaningful legacies are often written quietly, one life at a time. You'll discover why transformation matters more than recognition, how everyday acts of courage create ripple effects that outlive us, and why your greatest impact may be happening in places you'll never see. Because the world doesn't change because a few people become famous. It changes because ordinary people choose extraordinary courage. One of the ways we're growing this movement is through the Rockstar Ripple Effect Anthology—a collection of stories from ordinary people whose courage created extraordinary ripples. If you've been listening and thinking, 'Maybe one day I'll share my story,' I'd encourage you not to ignore that nudge. We'd love to have you learn more when the time is right. This anthology isn't simply about becoming an author. It's about becoming part of a community of courageous people who believe stories can heal, connect, inspire, and create lasting change. Because when one person has the courage to share their story... Someone else finds the courage to rewrite theirs. Together, we can create a Rockstar Ripple Effect that reaches far beyond what any one of us could accomplish alone. #RiseAndRoar #StoryToStage #Leadership #WomenInBusiness #PersonalGrowth #Legacy #PurposeDriven #BADASSLioness #Impact #Transformation Ginine wants to hear your story- No pressure!

Every movement begins with one courageous decision. One conversation. One act of kindness. One opportunity. One story shared.
