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.

Caley Dimmock: Owning Your Story & Building a Personal Brand That Lasts
What does it really mean to “own your story” and how do you decide what’s worth sharing online?
In this special live episode of Anxiously Ambitious, recorded at the stunning Greenhouse on Strawberry Lane in Nova Scotia, I sit down with my friend and mentor, Caley Dimmock. Caley is a digital ads expert, educator, and mentor who has built a thriving personal brand rooted in radical transparency, intuition, and storytelling.
Together, we dive into what it actually looks like to build a personal brand in 2025. Not just the glossy version, but the vulnerable, messy, deeply human side. Caley opens up about her own process of self-acceptance, how she decides what to share (and what to keep private), and why authenticity isn’t about telling everything but about telling the right things.
In this episode, we explore:
– Why “owning your story” is less about arrival and more about process
– The difference between authenticity and full transparency
– How to share online without re-traumatizing yourself
– The role of intuition in business decisions (and how to trust it again)
– Why every founder benefits from a personal brand and how it creates freedom to pivot
– The power of future-self visualization for pushing past fear
