Drop the mask. Burn the script. To Tell You The Truth is the podcast that lives between the group chat and LinkedIn — where money, power, and presence get decoded without the corporate filter.

Hosted by Brittany Sharpton, ex–Wall Street investment banker turned Fractional CFO, this show breaks down the unspoken rules of business, ambition, and identity with humor, honesty, and a little side-eye. If you’ve ever felt like you did everything “right” but still missed the fine print — this is your space. Because, to tell you the truth, playing by the rules never built a life worth living.
In this solo episode, I discusses the concept of shape-shifting in personal branding and self-advocacy, using the Travis Kelce and Taylor Swift engagement as a prime example. I emphasize the importance of adapting one’s appearance and behavior to fit different contexts, particularly in pursuit of economic empowerment. I share my personal journey of leveraging my education and experiences to achieve my desired lifestyle while acknowledging the systemic challenges faced by marginalized groups. I advocate for strategic self-presentation to achieve short-term goals while recognizing the value of long-term social change efforts.
