Anxiously Ambitious
Hi! I’m Netty, three-time founder, mom, and your host of Anxiously Ambitious. Welcome to the podcast where we embrace imperfection, honour our humanity, and prove you don’t have to have your sh*t together to build something amazing.
This is for my fellow deep feelers, sensitive souls, and anxious go-getters trying to grow without completely losing it. Together, we’ll dive into the messiness of ambition, how to balance big dreams with actual self-care (hint: it’s not easy, but it’s worth it) and how to thrive without sacrificing your sanity.
Every week, I bring you honest conversations with entrepreneurs, experts, and other beautifully flawed humans who’ve walked this path. We’ll share real stories, practical advice, and maybe even a few laughs, all to help you build a business and a life that feel like you.
If this sounds like your kind of space, hit follow and join me as we rewrite what success looks like: messy, meaningful, and entirely your own.

Maria Tassi: Unbecoming Who You Thought You Had to Be
In this episode, I’m joined by Maria Tassi, co-founder of The Social Snippet and High Vibe Women, for a deep dive into spirituality, self-awareness, and the power of simply being. Beyond her titles, Maria has done the inner work: unraveling conditioning, questioning the narratives we tell ourselves, and embracing the unknown.
We explore what it means to step into alignment with our true selves, break free from people-pleasing patterns, and detach from the thoughts that try to define us. Maria shares how she navigated her own journey of “unbecoming,” how she learned to trust her inner knowing, and why self-compassion is the key to real transformation.
What We’ll Cover:
- How to recognize when you're out of alignment and start making shifts toward authenticity.
- The power of realizing you are not your thoughts, and how to stop letting them control you.
- Why distractions and avoidance keep us stuck, and how to reconnect with our intuition.
- The role of self-compassion in healing and why learning to "mother yourself" is a game-changer.
- How to balance personal growth with presence and acceptance of where you are now.
Key Takeaways:
- True alignment begins when we stop living for others and start asking what we really want.
- Awareness is the first step to change. Our intuition is always there, but we have to clear the noise to hear it,
- Healing doesn’t come from doing all the “wellness things”, it’s about small, meaningful shifts,
- Letting go of old identities and expectations can feel uncomfortable, but it’s the path to freedom,
This conversation is a powerful reminder that we’re not meant to fit into a mold, we’re meant to be ourselves. If you’ve ever felt stuck in old patterns or unsure of what it really means to “be yourself,” this episode is for you!
