Gritty is the new Pretty

Guest Interest Form

Thank you for your interest in being featured on the Gritty Is the New Pretty podcast! We’re on the lookout for women whose stories spark courage, community, and transformation. Here’s how we choose our guests:

  • Authentic Impact
    We seek storytellers who lead with honesty, share lessons learned, and inspire others to lean into their grit.

  • Audience Reach
    Whether you connect with a tight-knit local group or have a broader digital footprint, we want to understand how your voice lifts up a community.

  • Topic Alignment
    From career pivots to wellness, start-ups to creative entrepreneurship, your expertise should feed our mission of empowering women to rise.

  • Regional Focus
    Preference is given to voices in the South Sound—Tacoma, Olympia, Shelton, Gig Harbor, and surrounding areas. If you’re based elsewhere but have a unique perspective or special project, let’s discuss in a follow-up call.

Please complete the sections below. We’ll review every submission thoughtfully. If your submission is selected we’ll be in touch to schedule a recording. Let’s get gritty with it!
