For Real: Life, Leadership, & Unlearning

Today we're navigating a topic that can cause quite a few of us to squirm: our relationship with money. But I’ve got good news, this won’t be one of those discussions that stresses you out.  Instead, you’ll laugh, learn, and leave feeling more empowered to take action based on what you learn about yourself.  So are you a spender, saver, avoider, or do you find yourself playing the financial martyr?  And are you different personally and professionally?  Let's find out from fractional CFO Shanna Skidmore.

What is For Real: Life, Leadership, & Unlearning?

For Real is a top 1% podcast for high-achievers who look successful on paper but feel like they’re one group text away from burning it all down. Hosted by Megan Gillikin - serial entrepreneur, business coach, keynote speaker, and recovering people pleaser - this show explores burnout, boundaries, identity shifts, and the brave act of unlearning who you thought you had to be.

With unfiltered conversations, “I thought it was just me” moments, and just enough humor to keep it from feeling like group therapy, For Real is your permission slip to evolve.
