meet yourself where you are

My mission

You can’t know where you’re going until you know where you are.

Brightsiding is the practice of meeting yourself with radical honesty, so that you can move forward with more clarity and joy.

Erica’s mission to support you on this journey, and maybe even make it fun.

A personality so bright, it practically

glows.

Erica Bogdan decided to go public with her introspection journey in 2019, and hasn’t looked back, not even for a second.

‍

Get vulnerable with Erica as she charts through life’s not-so-pretty moments and answers the questions we’ve all been too scared to ask out loud.

Through her newsletter, podcast, and workshops, she combines years of wisdom from her time at Google with the hard-earned lessons of coming-of-age in New York City - bringing a fresh perspective on resilience, hope, and the power of mindset.

Testimonials
- Mackenzie Cohen, TikTok

“My team really valued the Brightsiding session - having Erica join and relate to some of the issues we're experiencing on my team helped everyone realize that our challenges are not uncommon and we can work together to overcome. [By the end of the offsite], team members were throwing around terms from the session and figuring out ways we can Brightside our obstacles. Would definitely recommend this for groups both big and small for team building!”

- Rachel Lovely, Google
