About this listen

Today’s episode is a conversation with award-winning author and cultural trailblazer Amy DuBois Barnett about her debut novel, If I Ruled the World, and what it means for women to stop following other people’s playbooks and write their own rules instead. We dive into story, strategy, and real-life wisdom for women who aren’t waiting for permission; they’re creating the path.

In This Episode
• What inspired Amy to turn a powerful idea into this story
• How If I Ruled the World reflects women creating new systems instead of fixing old ones
• The rules women’ve been told to follow and how we’re rewriting them
• How creativity, courage, and community intersect in leadership and in life
• Practical takeaways for listeners ready to lead, build, or break ground

Practical Activation Steps
  1. Write your rule list: What “shoulds” are you retiring?
  2. Identify one area where you’ve followed someone else’s rule and replace it with yours
  3. Share your rule with a friend or write it publicly (because owning it increases impact)
  4. Choose one action this week that aligns with your new rule
Episode Affirmations
I am authorized to shape my life
My rules reflect my truth
I lead with intention

Journal Prompt
