Fan Favorite: This episode originally aired on November 12, 2019. What up, homies! It's your girl Lisa Bilyeu, and welcome back to the Women of Impact podcast, where we dive deep and come out stronger. Today, I'm absolutely thrilled to bring you a powerhouse episode with none other than the indomitable Lillian Garcia!Imagine singing live with the whole world watching, feeling every eye locked onto you—that's what Lilian did, and she did it with grace and power. Hired by the World Wrestling Federation in 1999, she became a trailblazer, the first female and Latina to host WrestleMania. But it wasn't all roses; the demands of a high-flying career put her personal life on pause. Our girl Lillian didn't crumble under life's curveballs; she rose and kept punching, going on to create a wildly successful podcast, Chasing Glory, with over six million downloads!We're about to unpack her journey, from navigating the wrestling world and its unique challenges to facing personal struggles and coming out on top. This episode is a testament to resilience, grit, and redefining what it means to have it all.So, grab that notebook, because Lillian Garcia is about to share her roadmap to seizing life by the horns and never looking back.SHOWNOTES00:00 "Chasing Glory: Wrestling to Podcast Success"03:50 Unprepared Wrestling Commentary Panic07:08 From Insecurity to Authenticity11:01 "Chasing Glory: DIY Filmmaking Journey"13:24 "Annulment Revelation Sets Me Free"16:37 Caught in Love and Guilt20:56 "Return to Work Decision"23:51 Spiritual Journey and Self-Discovery26:39 Overcoming Name-Related Insecurities29:58 Personal Reaction to Criticism32:12 Misunderstanding Leads to Tense Interviews35:03 Passion for Announcing MMA Matches40:02 Embrace Natural Aging Choices43:36 Change Perspective, Change Everything45:08 Priceless Personal Growth Experience47:27 "Discover Her Angelic Voice"FOLLOW LILIAN GARCIA: Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/liliangarcia/ Twitter: https://twitter.com/LilianGarcia YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/user/liliangarcia Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/LilianGarciaOfficialFanPageCHECK OUT OUR SPONSORSAudible: Sign up for a free 30-day trial at https://audible.com/WOI Vital Proteins: Get 20% off by going to https://www.vitalproteins.com and entering promo code WOI at check out.
