Reclaim Your Voice

In this episode of Reclaim Your Voice, I’m joined by Nicole Louise Geddes, founder of PerformerPreneur, for a powerful conversation about identity, confidence, community, and what it really takes to pivot when life or business asks you to evolve.
Nicole shares her journey from professional performer to entrepreneur, including how she built her first business, Manic Stage Productions, and later created PerformerPreneur during the pandemic when the entertainment industry came to a halt.
We talk about the emotional side of reinvention, the fear of being seen differently, the confidence it takes to step into a new version of yourself, and why community matters so much when you’re building something new.
We also dive into Nicole’s collaborative book, Spotlight on Success, and the process of bringing that vision to life.
If you are navigating growth, change, or the feeling that you are becoming someone new in business, this episode will speak to you.
In this episode, we cover:
• Nicole’s journey from performer to entrepreneur
• Why the pandemic became a major turning point in her business
• The identity shifts that come with pivoting and evolving
• Why so many people feel like a failure when they move in a new direction
• How confidence is built through evidence, support, and experience
• The power of community, collaboration, and asking for help
• Nicole’s advice for anyone feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or ready for a new chapter
• The story behind her book Spotlight on Success

In this episode of Reclaim Your Voice, I’m taking you behind the scenes of my experience speaking at the Women Thrive Summit 2026.

In this episode of Reclaim Your Voice, Savanna is joined by feminine embodiment mentor Sherisse Bisram for a powerful conversation about healing, confidence, self trust and reconnecting with who you already are.
Sherisse shares her journey from a career in the performing arts into the work she now does supporting the mental health and wellbeing of women and girls. We explore how childhood experiences shape the way we move through life, why so many women end up performing strength while struggling internally, and what it really means to build confidence from the inside out.
They also talk about inner child work, journaling, shadow work, emotional healing, resilience, identity evolution, and why true confidence is not about pretending to have it all together.
This is a rich, honest conversation about what it takes to come home to yourself.
In this episode, they cover:
• Sherisse’s background in dance, teaching and choreography
 • The life experiences that led her into embodiment and healing work

After delivering five masterclasses across the afternoon, Savanna shares a powerful realisation that sits at the heart of her VOICE framework.
Confidence does not grow when we stay still. It grows when we step into the stretch zone.
This episode explores why the rooms you place yourself in matter and how choosing environments that challenge, support and expand you can naturally strengthen confidence and leadership.
Savanna reflects on the power of in person connection, the generosity of women supporting women in business, and how meaningful conversations can unlock clarity, self trust and expression.
Inside this episode:
 • Why confidence grows when you step outside your comfort zone
 • The impact of being in the right rooms as a business owner
 • Lessons from delivering five confidence masterclasses in one afternoon
 • Why expression and saying things out loud changes how we show up
 • The connection between confidence, leadership and the environments you choose
If you are a woman in business stepping into greater visibility, leadership or growth, this episode is a reminder that confidence is not a finish line. It is something we expand every time we choose to show up.
