Ep. 2 | This Is Personal Growth Without Pretending—Meet Nane

Episode Summary:


When did self-help start feeling like another way to fail? If
you've ever thought, “Is it just me?”—it's not.


In this premiere episode, Nane (Vanessa Marquez-Kramme) shares
the raw, real story behind The Free Genies Project. She gets
personal about what led her to create a space for transformation
that isn’t about fixing yourself—but freeing yourself.


This episode is your invite into a cozy, no-BS corner of the
self-growth world. A space for the messy middle. For the girl
who’s done all the self-help phases. For the woman who’s still
figuring it out. For you.


Hit play to hear:




Why the pressure to “have it all figured out” is a lie




How privilege & perfectionism show up in self-development




What it means to grow without guilt, shame, or hustle




The origin story of The Free Genies Project 




What to expect this season—and why it’s not like other
self-help podcasts




Meet Your Host:


You can call her Nane.


She’s a curious human first—Latina, born in Venezuela, based in
the U.S., and fluent in nuance. A marketer by trade, a certified
life coach by heart, and a lover of pop culture, academia, and
all things taboo.


A Gemini sun with double Scorpio depth, main character
monologues, and a knack for seeing what others miss. She’s been
through the “vision board or die” phase, the toxic positivity
trap, and the mindset-is-everything spiral—and came out asking
better questions.


Now, she’s here to hold space for real conversations, real
feelings, and real transformation—minus the hustle, fluff, or
pressure to be perfect.
