Now she’s telling stories through a new lens: as a businesswoman, performer, and mom. From the newsroom to entrepreneurship, volleyball courts to golf greens, Kayla’s story is about courage, evolution, and embracing imperfection in real time</p><p><br></p><p>In this honest, energetic, and deeply human conversation, Kayla spills the tea on:</p><ul><li>Leaving behind stability for freedom and what she learned about “picking your hard.”</li><li>Motherhood as healing - raising her daughter Kennedy after loss and finding strength through love.</li><li>How authenticity beats perfection every time and why showing your “messy middle” is the real flex.</li><li>Her journey from volleyball scholarships to acting in commercials and “Boston Blue.”</li><li>And, why she is on a mission to get more women into sports and onto golf courses because the real deals aren’t just made in boardrooms</li></ul><p><br></p><p>Kayla is proof that you can lose it all, rebuild louder, and still lead with heart. From broadcast studios to business ventures, she reminds us that our voices matter - even when no one’s handing us the mic.</p><p><br></p><p>And of course, she joins our <em>Stir the Pot</em> tradition - dropping truth bombs and leaving a question that’ll have the next guest thinking twice.</p><p><br></p><p><em>Episode 7 — Redefining the Spotlight: Kayla Marie Williams on Reinvention, Resilience &amp; Real Talk</em> is streaming now on <em>What’s The Tea with Sarah E.</em></p><p><br></p><p>Connect with Kayla on Instagram <a href=\"https://www.instagram.com/kaylamarieto/\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">@kaylamarieto</a> and on LinkedIn at <a href=\"https://www.linkedin.com/in/kaylamariewilliams\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">Kayla Marie Williams</a></p>","author_name":"Sarah Ernest"}
