Odette Peek: Uncovering Your SOUL Story
What is your soul story?
The collection of life experiences that have shaped you, the challenges that have brought you to a place of self-awareness… Those moments form the personal narrative that sets you apart. And if you want to make a true impact in the world, you must learn to articulate your soul story and share it, inspiring other people and moving them to action.

Today, Peek is a professional speaker, business coach and TEDx alumni working to help her clients identify and amplify their soul stories, heal past wounds and develop the mindset necessary to live lives of power and purpose—without guilt or apology.
On this episode of The Female Insight Zone, Peek shares the story of the personal meltdown that uncovered her current mission. She explains the personal development work she did to foster self-awareness, face her own fear of vulnerability, and forgive the people in her past—as well as herself. Listen in as Peek offers insight around getting clear on the guts of your own soul story and sharing your unique vision with the world.
