#35: Samantha Kehoe - The No BS Approach to Life

Diaries of a Boss Babe

This week, we’re diving deep into the art of self-awareness, empowerment, and owning your damn worth with the incredible Samantha Kehoe—trained therapist, mom, happily married wife, and all-around badass. 💥

Samantha keeps it real as she shares her journey from playing by the rules to rewriting them—starting with walking away from a wedding just two months before the big day (talk about trusting your gut! 😮). She brings that Jersey girl energy with her no-BS approach to life, love, and letting go of what no longer serves us.

💡 In this episode, we unpack:
✨ The fine line between intuition and fear—how to tell the difference
✨ Why women often know the answer but struggle to admit it
✨ The mental load women carry (and how to stop shouldering it alone)
✨ How boundaries = self-worth (and why setting them is an act of love)
✨ The evolving roles of women in career, family, and relationships
✨ Why letting go of control is essential for personal peace
✨ The unspoken struggles of men & how it impacts modern relationships
✨ The messy, wild world of dating apps—and why they make vulnerability harder

This episode is all about growth, grit, and giving yourself permission to step into your power. 💖 Whether you’re balancing a career and motherhood, navigating relationships, or just trying to figure out WTF you actually want—this one’s for you.
