In today’s episode of Coffee and Tea with CarrieVee, I’m pulling back the curtain on a myth I hear far too often: “I’m loud, I’m bold, I’m in-your-face... therefore, I must be empowered.”

Let me be clear: empowerment isn’t volume.
It’s presence.
It’s clarity.
It’s confidence.
And it’s knowing when to speak, when to rest, and when to pivot—without needing anyone else’s permission.

We’ll talk about:

• The difference between confidence and arrogance
• Why true empowerment doesn’t need to yell
• How to take your power back without stepping on others
• The internal shift that lets you rewrite your own rules

This episode is your gentle, bold reminder that you were created with power built into your DNA.
You don’t have to hustle for it. You just have to remember it.

Let’s walk in that power—together.

In this episode of Coffee and Tea with CarrieVee, we’re digging into a big question women ask me often: what does it really mean to be radically empowered? Spoiler alert—it’s not about hating men or stepping on others to get ahead. Radical empowerment is about stepping into your own voice, reclaiming your power, and bringing others with you as you climb.

I break down six ways to live radically empowered:

1. Own your voice—even if it shakes.
2. Ditch the permission slip.
3. Turn your setbacks into sparks.
4. Choose bold over comfortable.
5. Celebrate the mirror.
6. Link arms with other women instead of competing.

This is the heartbeat behind Radical Empowerment Live 2025, happening October 18–19 in Endicott, NY. Whether you join for one day or grab a VIP two-day pass, you’ll leave with confidence, clarity, and a tribe of empowered women ready to walk this road with you.

In this heartfelt and transformational episode, CarrieVee is joined by Caregiver Family Health Coach Drew Deraney, who opens up about the real, raw experience of caring for his adult son with autism. Drew shares how that journey led him to create a framework he now uses to guide other caregivers through the challenges of maintaining personal health, identity, and purpose.

Drew introduces his Six Pillars of Family Health—Physical, Intellectual, Love (Emotional), Legacy (Financial), Awareness (Mental), and Spiritual/Energetic—and explains how each of these areas plays a vital role in whole-person wellness. Through honest conversation and actionable insights, he encourages caregivers to take back the pen and start writing their own stories again.

Whether you're currently caregiving or supporting someone who is, this episode will leave you with renewed clarity, compassion, and a few practical tools to begin healing and growing.

As a dedicated Caregiver Family Health Coach, I am passionate about empowering individuals to reclaim their narratives. With an MBA and certifications in Mindset Mastery Coaching and Empathy Training, I bring a wealth of knowledge and experience to those navigating the complexities of caregiving and personal identity.

For Caregivers: I understand the challenges faced by those caring for individuals with autism spectrum disorder. The support services landscape can be overwhelming, and I am here to provide clarity and guidance. My mission is to care for the caregiver, ensuring that you have the tools and support needed to thrive on this journey.

Join me in transforming challenges into opportunities for growth. Let’s embark on this journey together.

In this powerful and practical episode, CarrieVee explores the pervasive impact of unwanted drama and the steps you can take to remove it from your life. Through personal reflection and years of coaching insight, she walks listeners through five clear strategies for releasing toxic patterns, setting boundaries, and reclaiming your peace.

Carrie shares how drama isn’t just disruptive—it’s draining. From setting healthy emotional and conversational boundaries to recognizing attention-seeking behaviors, the episode is a masterclass in emotional maturity and intentional living. She encourages listeners to take full responsibility for the role they may have played in fueling drama, while also providing a journal prompt for self-reflection: Where have I caused or added to drama in my life, and how can I make amends for that?

Additional guidance includes practicing mindfulness in conversations, consuming uplifting content, and seeking the support of coaches, community, and transformative events like Radical Empowerment Live. Carrie emphasizes that stepping away from drama isn’t selfish—it’s a radical act of self-care and empowerment.

In this episode of Coffee & Tea with CarrieVee, I’m inviting you into a heart-to-heart about the power of solution-focused leadership—and how it's shaped not just my business life, but my entire outlook on the world. Whether you're leading a family, a small business, or a billion-dollar organization, the truth remains the same: great leaders don’t dwell on problems—they pivot toward solutions.

I reflect on the profound influence my parents had on me, especially my mom, who was pioneering remote work before the internet was even a thing. She saw a challenge—wanting to raise her kids at home while also contributing financially—and created a thriving transcription business from her dining room table. Watching her turn limitations into innovations taught me that staying stuck is a choice, and solutions are always within reach if you're willing to get creative and stay persistent.

I share how this mindset has impacted my work as a leadership and communication trainer and how I’ve seen firsthand what happens when people (and entire companies) stop circling the drain of the problem and start climbing toward the solution.

If you’re feeling stuck, today’s episode is your gentle but firm nudge to shift your focus. Plus, I’ll leave you with a journal prompt to help you start brainstorming solutions to whatever challenge you’re facing right now.

Until next time, keep writing, keep growing, and keep going—you.
