Do you have an insatiable hunger for growth and knowledge?
Are you interested in hearing the stories of how successful people have navigated their journey towards greatness…all while stumbling through valuable lessons along the way?
My name is Sonnie and I am the host of Evoke Greatness, the weekly podcast driven by my curious nature and fascination with the champion mindset. I am a HUGE book nerd and a wee bit of a “control enthusiast” with an obsession for motivational coffee cups.
On this podcast, we share the ups and the downs, the highs and lows and all the lessons learned in between. It’s my most sincere hope you hear something in one or maybe many of these episodes that resonates with you and reminds you that you’re not in this alone.
I believe that a rising tide raises all ships and I invite you along in this journey to Evoke Greatness!

- What “The Generosity Culture” is and how it begins with pouring into your people
- How she flips the script on mistakes and missteps and uses it to constantly be learning
- How the big ideas the scare the bejesus out of you are usually the absolute right path to follow

In this episode I share:
- My struggle with battling whether or not to accept the clarity that I was praying for
- The process, emotionally and psychologically, that I went through in deciding to step out of my executive role that was safe and comfortable
- Why I would encourage everyone to ask yourself the question: What would I do if I knew I wouldn’t fail?
- How platforms like LinkedIn have helped me grow an incredibly high caliber, supportive network around me
- Why I feel like you will have to allow some old parts of you to die off in order to give space to grow into the next version of yourself

Trigger Warning: This episode is intended to cause you to confront some habits that aren’t serving you. Some of these habits are very intimate and fill you in unhealthy ways, thereby causing you to get really uncomfortable.
- What does going all in on you look like?
- Have you ever thought to yourself, what does the very best version of me look like?
- What kind of discipline is needed to get to this version of you?
- If you have the opportunity to do the exercise in this episode, please do. It will cause you to confront some of the things you are doing that are actually holding you back or drawing you farther away from your goals.
- What will you invest in yourself, because you are worth it?
- What will you sacrifice giving up because it no longer serves you?
If this spoke to you in a way that caused you to want to go deeper on this or is the kick in the pants you need to get to work on your best self, I hope you’ll share it with me.

Brittney was the woman who climbed to the top of her field, despite overwhelming imposter syndrome and self-doubt. She constantly battled against feelings that she was not good enough, smart enough, or deserving enough for the role she had achieved. Sitting in boardrooms and being asked to take notes, she was told time and again that she should be hidden in back of house operations because she looked the part and of course, was told she was too aggressive. But none of this stopped her from reaching the mountaintop. Brittney left her cushy, half million+ career to launch PowHER and discovered that so many women are looking for guidance on how to claim their power in the workplace, at home and throughout every aspect of their lives. She realized that she could help these women by sharing her own story and teachings.
In this episode, she shares:
- What led her out of Corporate America and into an entrepreneurial calling to do more, be more, have more and change more.
- How she works to teach women and corporations to “build a better table”.
- Her take on why women are leaving the corporate world and betting on themselves.
- Tactical steps for those who are uncomfortable negotiating on their own behalf in order to get the best possible offer.
- Her experience with Imposter Syndrome earlier in her career.
- The powerful lessons she has learned through failure.
- Why pouring into others is something that reaps benefits for the giver and the receiver
- The advice she would give her younger self.
This was such a great episode as Brittney went deep on her story and how she has navigated all that has come at her in her life. Make sure to check out her website for executive consulting and coaching needs as well as her social media for great content and tips-links below.
