The Itty-Bitty Shitty Committee

Hey You,

Welcome to the very first edition of The Rebel Edge!

This is the start of a monthly riff on leadership, mindset, messy middles, and the little voice in our heads that likes to talk sh*t. Zero fluff. All real talk. A bit of me. A bit of you. And hopefully a spark that keeps you moving forward, with clarity and guts.

Today we kick off with an introduction to my most favourite topic… The Itty-Bitty Shitty Committee

Thanks for chiming in, hop on and let’s go for our first ride together

Meet The Itty-Bitty Shitty Committee

Let’s get one thing straight: the loudest voice in the room isn’t always the wisest. Sometimes, it’s just your inner critic in a power suit with a megaphone.

Mine shows up in style. She’s sharp, professional, and full of unsolicited advice. And she’s not alone.

There’s a full committee up there:

• The “Who Do You Think You Are?” Director
• The “Stay Small, Stay Safe” Treasurer
• The “Compare and Despair” Social Chair

You know them. They hold emergency meetings the night before your launch. They whisper “not ready” before a big presentation. They scream when you finally take a breath.

I used to think confidence meant silencing them.

Now I know better: Confidence is pulling up a chair and leading the damn meeting.

🛠 Try This

This month, meet your own committee. Name the voices. Give them a seat, an outfit, a job title.

Then ask: Are they protecting you or limiting you?

You don’t need to kick them out. But you do get to be Chair.

🧠 This Month’s Reflection

If your inner critic took a day off… what would you say yes to?

Write it down.

That’s your permission slip.

📬 If this hit home, share it with another powerhouse woman you rate. The Committee is loud. But community? That’s louder.

See you next month, same sass, more soul.
