Today on the She’s An Asset podcast, Autumn sits down with the unforgettable Meredith Steele (@babiesofsteele), the raw, hilarious, and deeply human voice behind a platform that now touches over a million people.
Meredith shares the truth about her mental health journey, including her suicide attempt at 16—and how she found her way back to life, purpose, and service. In a world that filters out the truth, Meredith chose to build a platform on it.

We talk about:
- What it’s really like to live with mental health struggles—and not hide them
- Why being real online is the most radical thing you can do
- How Meredith uses humor to connect, survive, and create impact

Meredith reminds us: You don’t need to be perfect to be impactful. You just need to stay here. And stay real.
