Brains Gone Bold Podcast
Hey there! We’re Jeanine and Maria – two curious minds who love to go off-script and talk about everything from leadership to love, and all the messy stuff in between.
This show is for anyone who likes to laugh, learn, and maybe even cringe a little (in a good way). Sometimes we’ll make you stop and think. Other times? You’ll be laughing out loud.
We don’t have all the answers but we do ask big questions, share real stories, and talk about things people don’t always say out loud.
So if you're into deep chats, fun vibes, and real talk, you’re in the right place.

Brains Gone Bold Podcast
Turns Out, Bold Looks a Lot Like Grown-Up Women at a Wine Bar
Think bold means loud? Think again.
Maria and Jeanine hit record with sweaty palms and big honesty. From a too-rowdy wine bar to real talk about boundaries, they show how bold can show up in unexpected places. “Sometimes bold is the simple move.” And Jeanine adds, “Bold is saying what needs said, even when no one else will.”
What you’ll hear:
- The “quiet confidence” version of bold
- Brave vs. bold (and why both matter)
- A tiny choice that changed the night
- How childhood rules still shape us
- Boundaries 101: hugs at work, personal space, and consent
- Yes, a cheeky detour into the word bawdy (with class)
This is smart, human, and funny. Maria owns her nerves. Jeanine owns her no-hug stance. Together, they land a simple truth: bold doesn’t have to be big or noisy. It’s saying the thing, choosing your space, and doing it with respect.
