Dr. Mickell Dent: The Real Cost of the Mask, and What Becomes Possible When You Finally Remove It

Join Leslie Gaudet and Dr. Mickell Dent, licensed mental health therapist, EMDR clinician, transformational coach, and TEDx speaker, for a raw, honest, and deeply empowering conversation about what it truly means to unmask, heal, and step into the most authentic version of yourself. Dr. Dent is the creator of the ABC Theory, founder of Boss Fly Girls, and the driving force behind GLOW 414 — a nonprofit dedicated to mentoring and supporting youth and young adults through education and mental wellness. Her TEDx talk on the masks we wear has sparked conversations that so many women have needed but never known how to start. In this episode, Dr. Dent opens up about the most common masks high-achieving women wear and the real cost of keeping them on, how EMDR and inner child work help women break patterns they have been carrying for years, and what it truly looks like to lead and influence from a place of radical authenticity rather than performance. If you have ever felt like the mask you put on to survive has started to feel like your real face — this conversation is your invitation to finally take it off. ******************************************************************** Connect with me: https://linktr.ee/herextraordinarylifebydesign [email protected] ******************************************************************** Monthly Gathering: I've been sitting on an idea for how to create a space where women can finally show up without the filter, without the performance, and without wondering whether being seen is going to cost them something. A monthly gathering. No faces. No names. No titles. Just voices and honest conversation about what it actually feels like to be a woman navigating this profession. If I built it — would you come? Send me an email with the words “I’m in for Monthly Gathering” and that will be enough for me to know that you’re interested. The YES Reset Community: If you are a woman in law and you would like to share your perspective as I build The YES Reset Community, I would love to hear from you because what I create will be shaped by what you're actually experiencing. You can send me an email to share what resonated or ask any questions. I read every message. And if you're willing to go a little deeper, you can complete a brief feedback form that will help me build this with your actual experience in mind.
