Welcome! I'm glad you're here—and if you're listening to this, I'm even more glad. This podcast is a series of interviews with women who are making an impact in their careers.
Each interview is engaging and enlightening, and they all share valuable insights that any woman can use. One of my favourite parts is the time at the end when I ask each guest what they would tell their younger self.
So, thanks for tuning in—I hope you'll enjoy this series as much as I enjoyed making it for you!
