The Role Model Ripple Effect: If We Can See It, We Can Be It with Stephanie Ferrario

Circle This

Show Notes

In this episode, Dre sits down with Stephanie Ferrario, founder of SheCan—a global movement and media platform amplifying women's voices through storytelling, education, and community. With over 3 million organic listeners, SheCan has become a living archive of transformation, visibility, and purpose.

Together, Dre and Stephanie circle around the questions: What makes a mentor? Why is emotional wellbeing a collective issue?

How do circles help us sit with discomfort, regulate our nervous systems, and remind us we're not alone? From sitting with women in Ethiopia to launching a digital movement, Stephanie shares how SheCan was born in circle, listening to women's lived experiences and inviting the world to be inspired by them. They explore how internalized patriarchy, ageism, and competition keep women from rising, up until now, and how storytelling dismantles those myths.

This episode is both a love letter and a call to action: to gather, to witness, to build a new archive where her story matters—because when one woman rises, she lifts many.
