She Leads®: The Podcast for Women Entrepreneurs Building to $1 Million and Beyond

IP attorney Laurie Selkowitz breaks down why women founders are chronically under-informed when it comes to trademarking and intellectual property - and the moves you need to make before it's too late to protect what you've built. As a partner at Greenberg Glusker, Laurie advises companies from early-stage startups to Fortune 500 enterprises on technology, privacy, and intellectual property. In this conversation, she explains why many women founders unintentionally miss critical opportunities to protect their ideas. In a first-to-file system, waiting until something feels perfect can mean losing the chance to secure patents or trademarks that could become valuable business assets. Adrienne and Laurie talk through the practical side of legal strategy for entrepreneurs. They explore when founders should bring in legal counsel, how to think about budgeting for legal services, and why contracts and negotiations deserve more attention than most businesses give them early on. They also discuss the growing use of AI in business and why founders need to understand what they truly own when using AI-generated content.  If you’re building a business, this episode could save you from costly legal mistakes. Chapters:⚖️ 02:21 Laurie Selkowitz on advocacy, innovation, and protecting ideas🏁 06:11 Why women wait too long to file patents🛡️ 13:01 Legal strategy early prevents expensive problems later💼 16:42 Planning legal budgets and finding the right attorney🤝 21:18 Asking harder questions builds stronger business deals🤖 36:04 AI tools, ownership risks, and protecting your work Links:Email: lselkowitz@GreenbergGlusker.comReach out to Laurie Selkowitz to learn more about protecting your intellectual property and building a strong legal foundation for your business.  Thank you to our podcast sponsorGo From Expert to Thought Leader with the Genius Discovery Program.Book Directly with Kent: http://talktokent.com Learn more at: geniusdiscovery.org We're always seeking aligned sponsors.⭐️  If you're interested in supporting our podcast - one episode or a season, reach out to Adrienne at Adrienne@sheleadsmedia.com.⭐️Reach out to Adrienne: hello@sheleadsmedia.com Visit our website: www.sheleadsmedia.com to learn about upcoming events or to work with me directly and get the clarity you’re seeking.As a gesture of support for this podcast and sharing women's voices everywhere - I would greatly appreciate if you would take a moment and give our podcast a 5 Star rating and review on Apple Podcasts or Spotify. By you taking this simple action, you are making a difference in sharing women's voices, thoughts and opinions.  One last thing - if you haven’t done so already, please hit the plus sign + to follow the podcast so you never miss an episode.

Solve a real buyer problem. Build enterprise value. Exit on your terms.In this episode of the She Leads Podcast, Kelly Parker shares how she built Send Ribbon, a bootstrapped corporate gifting company acquired by UrbanStems, by focusing on one overlooked opportunity: solving real pain points for real buyers.With just $5,000 and no outside funding, Kelly launched her business at 27 after years inside high growth companies like Indeed, WeWork, and DoorDash. Instead of chasing luxury products or hype, she spoke directly with office managers, the true gatekeepers of corporate purchasing, and realized they did not need more options. They needed reliability, speed, and zero friction.That insight became her competitive advantage and ultimately positioned the company for acquisition.In this conversation, Kelly breaks down how relationship first thinking helped her win Fortune 500 clients, why visibility matters more than perfection when positioning for acquisition, and how staying close to your buyer builds long term enterprise value.She also challenges the pressure many women founders face to be “all in” at the expense of financial stability. From healthcare realities to diversified income strategies, Kelly shares practical advice for building sustainable companies that align with your life, not just your ambition.Today, through her advisory platform launchgrowexit, Kelly supports female founders who want to launch, grow, and eventually exit their companies with clarity and confidence.If you are building a business, thinking about long term value, or questioning the hustle culture narrative, this episode offers a grounded roadmap for turning customer insight into a high value company.Chapters: 00:56 👋 Meet Kelly Parker: Bootstrapping, Exiting, and Giving Back 03:05 🎓 Break the Rules Early: From Catholic School to Startup Risk and Grit 09:41 🚀 Learn Inside High-Growth Teams: Mentorship, Culture, and Taking the Leap 15:36 🎁 Spot the Buyer Gap: Office Manager Insights and Frictionless Gifting 26:16 🏗️ Build for Sustainability First: Creating a Lifestyle Business That Attracts Opportunity 28:08 💐 Stay Visible to Get Acquired: UrbanStems, COVID Timing, and the Letter of Intent 31:14 🤝 Make Relationships the Asset: Why Trust Drives Enterprise Value 35:51 💡 Think Exit Early: Healthcare, Hustle Culture, and Funding Your Dream Strategically 44:37 🌟 Reinvent After the Exit: Becoming a Co-Founder on Demand and Building Accessible Advisory 53:04 🎁 Book a Free Call with Kelly Parker: https://calendly.com/kellyanneparker/15min?back=1  Links:Instagram: www.instagram.com/launchgrowexitLinkedIn:  www.linkedin.com/in/kellyanneparkerBook a free call with Kelly and connect with her on LinkedIn and Instagram to start building a business designed to launch, grow, and exit on your terms. Thank you to our podcast sponsorGo From Expert to Thought Leader with the Genius Discovery Program.Book Directly with Kent: http://talktokent.com Learn more at: geniusdiscovery.org We're always seeking aligned sponsors.⭐️ If you're interested in supporting our podcast - one episode or a season, reach out to Adrienne at Adrienne@sheleadsmedia.com.⭐️Reach out to Adrienne: hello@sheleadsmedia.com Visit our website: www.sheleadsmedia.com to learn about upcoming events or to work with me directly and get the clarity you’re seeking."I love ♥️ listening to The She Leads™ Podcast!” If that thought crossed your mind at any time while listening to our special show, I’d love it if y:ou would take a moment and give our podcast some love too.

From Washington, D.C. to the Brooklyn waterfront, Lindsay Greene shares how a career in finance evolved into a mission to transform industrial spaces into engines of opportunity for underserved communities.Lindsay Greene is the President and CEO of the Brooklyn Navy Yard, where she leads one of New York City’s most ambitious models for inclusive economic development. With more than 550 businesses and 11,000 employees on site, the Navy Yard is not simply a real estate portfolio but a living ecosystem designed to create quality jobs and connect local residents to meaningful careers. Her work blends business strategy, workforce development, and community engagement into a powerful example of how cities can rethink the purpose of former industrial spaces.Her journey began in Washington, D.C., where daily exposure to economic disparities shaped her desire to work at the intersection of business and community impact. After studying economics at Harvard and starting her career in investment banking at Goldman Sachs, she discovered urban development through the Urban Investment Group under Alicia Glen. Mentorship from leaders like Glen and MIT professor Phil Thompson helped her shift from traditional finance to mission driven economic development. A detour into the food industry after Yale School of Management eventually led her back to this work, culminating in her leadership at the Navy Yard in 2022.Lindsay explains how the Brooklyn Navy Yard goes beyond affordable real estate to support small, women owned, and minority owned businesses with mentorship, capital access, and technical advisory services. She highlights the Brooklyn STEAM Center, a public high school that gives 600 students hands on training with industry grade equipment, as well as new adult reskilling programs that recognize the value of both digital and analog problem solving. Through initiatives like the Micro Business Accelerator Program, she is building pathways for entrepreneurs to start small, grow, and scale within a supportive ecosystem.This conversation explores leadership, economic mobility, and the importance of early exposure to career possibilities. Lindsay’s work demonstrates that revitalizing industrial spaces can do more than preserve history. It can create futures. Tune in to hear how thoughtful economic development can reshape communities and expand opportunity for the next generation.Chapters:01:01 👩‍💼 Meet Lindsay Greene President and CEO of Brooklyn Navy Yard03:37 🗺️ Lindsay’s journey from Washington DC to New York City05:30 🏦 From Goldman Sachs to a career in economic development13:54 🏗️ Revitalizing the Brooklyn Navy Yard into a thriving hub16:24 🌱 Community programs driving opportunity and impact34:21 🚀 What is next for the Brooklyn Navy Yard41:12 ✨ Closing reflections and final thoughtsLinks:Website: www.brooklynnavyyard.org  Connect with Lindsay Greene through the Brooklyn Navy Yard’s website to explore how this innovative model is creating jobs, supporting entrepreneurs, and opening new pathways for underserved communities. Thank you to our podcast sponsorGo From Expert to Thought Leader with the Genius Discovery Program.Book Directly with Kent: http://talktokent.com Learn more at: geniusdiscovery.org We're always seeking aligned sponsors.⭐️ If you're interested in supporting our podcast - one episode or a season, reach out to Adrienne at Adrienne@sheleadsmedia.com.⭐️Reach out to Adrienne: hello@sheleadsmedia.com Visit our website: www.sheleadsmedia.com to learn about upcoming events or to work with me directly and get the clarity you’re seeking."I love ♥️ listening to The She Leads™ Podcast!” If that thought crossed your mind at any time while listening to our special show, I’d love it if you would take a moment and give our podcast some love too.

I’m saying the quiet part out loud: if you don’t build your sales muscle, growth stalls - no matter how talented you are. In this episode, Julia Arpag, CEO and Founder of Aligned Recruitment, shares with me how she went from five weeks postpartum and laid off to building a seven-figure tech recruitment firm by treating selling as service, investing early in mentorship, and using LinkedIn + networking like a real funnel.Julia’s journey began in August 2023 when she was unexpectedly laid off while on maternity leave. What could have been a destabilizing moment became the catalyst for something extraordinary. While briefly accepting a W-2 role, she started selling for a friend’s startup recruitment venture on the side. Within months, she closed three retainer clients. That early traction forced a pivotal decision: continue playing it safe, or step fully into entrepreneurship despite fears around sales, taxes, and “not knowing enough.” She chose the leap. Rather than trying to figure everything out alone, Julia invested her earliest earnings into mentorship by hiring an executive coach who had sold a recruitment agency for $28 million, a LinkedIn writing coach, and systems experts. Inspired by Carol Dweck’s Mindset and the philosophy of “Who Not How,” she built her sales muscle, reframed selling as service, and adopted a growth mindset that became foundational to Aligned Recruitment’s rapid success. She reminds us that for women entrepreneurs especially, seeking support is often the difference between staying small and scaling meaningfully. We also explored Julia’s tactical wisdom as a recruiter, including why job seekers should treat their search like a sales funnel, how to optimize LinkedIn to be discovered, and why networking consistently outperforms cold online applications. At a deeper level, Julia challenges the idea that business success must come at the cost of personal well-being. Her philosophy is clear: build a business around your life, not the other way around. This conversation is a powerful reminder for all of us that profitability, purpose, and peace can coexist. Tune in to hear my conversation with Julia Arpag and how she is redefining what it looks like for women to lead, sell, and scale without losing themselves in the process.

Paige Arnof-Fenn shares how to stop competing on price by sharpening brand positioning, owning a niche, and turning reputation + referrals into consistent demand.In this episode, Paige Arnof-Fenn shares her journey from investment banking to branding powerhouse and discovering her true calling in marketing, building a distributed firm long before remote work was mainstream, and detailing how to turn expertise into profitable, high-impact businesses. Paige is the founder and CEO of Mavens & Moguls, a global branding and digital marketing firm that has worked with clients like Microsoft, Virgin, The New York Times Company, and Colgate. Her path to entrepreneurship didn’t begin with a clear plan, but with a series of courageous pivots that led her from Wall Street to marketing leadership at P&G and Coca-Cola, and eventually to building her own agency. Along the way, she learned that success is less about following a script and more about honoring the parts of work that energize you.The turning points in Paige’s story are rooted in self-awareness and bold action. After realizing investment banking didn’t align with her values or passion, she shifted into marketing, first through business school, then by shaping brand strategy at major corporations and startups. She watched the internet industry emerge in the late ’90s and embraced it, later using the post-9/11 job market as a catalyst to launch her own business. What could have been a moment of fear became the start of a 24-year journey building a thriving firm with a distributed team across multiple cities and countries.Paige’s most powerful insights center on clarity, niche, and validation. She encourages women entrepreneurs to treat themselves as a brand, not a commodity, and to build businesses based on real market research, not friendly feedback. She champions differentiation through specificity, sharing how dominating one niche beats trying to please everyone, and explains how profitability is the foundation for meaningful impact.Paige’s story is a celebration of women’s leadership, resilience, and the power of building businesses that create real change. If you’re ready to rethink what entrepreneurship can look like, and how to build it with intention and confidence, this conversation is for you. Tune in and be inspired.Chapters00:56 👩‍💼 Meet Paige Arnof-Fenn From Stanford to CEO03:13 💼 Paige’s Journey in Investment Banking06:26 📈 Discovering a Passion for Marketing09:40 🚀 Building a Successful Marketing Firm23:42 🌍 Pioneering Outsourced Marketing24:04 🏆 Early Success and Harvard Recognition28:19 💡 Positioning Strategy for Women Founders: Brand vs Commodity29:45 📣 Niche + Market Research: Validation That Creates Demand35:18  🔁 The Referral Engine: Becoming the Default Choice42:28 💖 Philanthropy and Legacy  LinksWebsite:  www.mavensandmoguls.com LinkedIn:  www.linkedin.com/in/paigearnoffenn Check out Paige Arnof-Fenn’s website, connect with her on LinkedIn, and explore her work with Mavens & Moguls to learn how to build a brand-driven business that scales with clarity, purpose, and impact. Thank you to our podcast sponsorGo From Expert to Thought Leader with the Genius Discovery Program.Book Directly with Kent: http://talktokent.com Learn more at: geniusdiscovery.org We're always seeking aligned sponsors.⭐️ If you're interested in supporting our podcast - one episode or a season, reach out to Adrienne at Adrienne@sheleadsmedia.com.⭐️Reach out to Adrienne: hello@sheleadsmedia.com Visit our website: www.sheleadsmedia.com to learn about upcoming events or to work with me directly and get the clarity you’re seeking."I love ♥️ listening to The She Leads™ Podcast!” If that thought crossed your mind at any time while listening to our special show, I’d love it if you would take a moment and give our podcast some love too.

From courtroom litigator to emotionally intelligent mediator, Katherine Eisold Miller shares how she is reshaping divorce into a process grounded in clarity, compassion, and agency for women navigating one of life’s hardest transitions.Today, I sit down with Katherine Miller, founder of the Miller Law Group and a New York-based divorce attorney, mediator, author, and podcast host who is changing the cultural conversation around divorce. Coming from a family of therapists, Katherine saw early in her legal career that traditional litigation focused on winning rather than helping people through deeply personal crises. Her work now centers on mediation and emotionally savvy decision-making, empowering women to move through divorce without losing themselves in the process.Katherine opens up about her early years handling hundreds of child welfare and litigation cases and the moment she realized there had to be a better way. With nearly all divorces settling outside of trial, she chose to pursue mediation training to help people make thoughtful decisions aligned with their real priorities. That pivot marked a powerful shift from adversarial problem-solving to collaborative clarity, especially for women who often carry the emotional and financial weight of family transitions.We dive into the art of listening beyond surface-level demands to uncover what truly matters, whether in divorce, entrepreneurship, or leadership. Katherine explains how interrupting destructive conflict patterns creates space for solutions that honor both parties’ needs. She also shares why conversations about money, prenuptial agreements, and financial values are not signs of failure, but foundations for stronger partnerships and healthier outcomes.This conversation is a reminder that leadership begins with self-trust, preparation, and the courage to ask better questions. Katherine’s insights offer women permission to approach divorce without shame, fear, or defaulting to systems that do not serve them. If you care about agency, emotional intelligence, and building a life that reflects your values, you will want to listen all the way through.Chapters👩‍⚖️ 00:55 Meet Katherine Miller🛤️ 03:03 Katherine’s Journey to Becoming a Divorce Attorney🤝 05:30 Understanding Mediation in Divorce🗣️ 10:14 The Importance of Listening and Understanding📊 14:02 Divorce Statistics and Trends💡 16:05 Preparing for Divorce with Confidence💼 37:00 Impact of Divorce on Women Entrepreneurs🔚 39:43 Conclusion and Resources LinksWebsite: https://miller-law.com/Socials: Instagram, Facebook, TwitterLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/kemiller1/Katherine's Book - Promotional Offer: https://www.amazon.com/Emotionally-Savvy-Divorce-Smart-Negotiations/dp/1774586053 Connect with Katherine Miller through her website and social platforms, explore her work on The Emotionally Savvy Divorce podcast, and learn how emotional intelligence can help you lead yourself through change with confidence and clarity.Thank you to our podcast sponsorGo From Expert to Thought Leader with the Genius Discovery Program.Book Directly with Kent: http://talktokent.com Learn more at: geniusdiscovery.org We're always seeking aligned sponsors.⭐️ If you're interested in supporting our podcast - one episode or a season, reach out to Adrienne at Adrienne@sheleadsmedia.com.⭐️Reach out to Adrienne: hello@sheleadsmedia.com Visit our website: www.sheleadsmedia.com to learn about upcoming events or to work with me directly and get the clarity you’re seeking."I love ♥️ listening to The She Leads™ Podcast!” If that thought crossed your mind at any time while listening to our special show, I’d love it if you would take a moment and give our podcast some love too.

From navigating Wall Street during the financial crisis to building wealth strategies for women who are reshaping the economy, Emily Green shares how she became a powerful advocate for women taking control of their financial futures.In our conversation, I sit down with Emily Green, Head of Wealth Management at Ellevest, a company founded by Sally Krawcheck to close the persistent investment gap facing women. Emily’s career began at J.P. Morgan, where she quickly noticed a troubling pattern: male founders were consistently better prepared and better supported when selling businesses or going public, while women were left without the same level of financial advocacy. That realization led her to Ellevest, where she helped build the firm’s wealth management division from the ground up, effectively launching a startup within a startup.Emily opens up about the pivotal transition Ellevest made after selling its robo-advisory business in 2024, a bold decision that required letting go of an early identity to gain clarity around serving high-earning and high-net-worth women more deeply. We talk about how women’s relationships with money evolve over time, shifting from budgeting and day-to-day decisions toward life trade-offs, fulfillment, and legacy. Emily also shares how her clients’ wealth comes from diverse paths, like corporate leadership, early tech roles, entrepreneurship, and investing, reflecting a growing desire for alternatives to traditional banking models.This talk dives into the historic wealth transfer underway and why women will be at the center of it, controlling an estimated fifty percent of U.S. wealth by 2030. Emily introduces the idea of “wealth care,” reframing money as a tool to maximize life rather than an end goal. From examining inherited money beliefs to treating personal finances like a business, she offers grounded, actionable guidance that can save women millions over their lifetimes.If you’re ready to rethink money, leadership, and long-term impact, this is an episode you don’t want to miss.Chapters👋 01:00 Meet Emily Green, Head of Wealth Management at Ellevest🚀 01:52 Emily Green’s journey building a career in financial services📈 05:12 How Ellevest evolved to serve women building lasting wealth💸 14:49 The great wealth transfer and what it means for women leaders👑 20:06 Women stepping into financial power during the wealth transfer🧠 21:14 The real challenges women face in financial decision-making👩‍👧 25:07 How generational views on money are changing for women✨ 33:23 Emily’s advice for young women building financial independence🎤 36:32 Closing insights and resources to continue the journey Links:Website: https://ellevest.comLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/emily-green-2a98a81a/Email: emilyg@ellevest.comExplore Ellevest’s resources, connect with Emily on LinkedIn, and dive deeper into her work to start building wealth with confidence, clarity, and purpose.Thank you to our podcast sponsorGo From Expert to Thought Leader with the Genius Discovery Program.Book Directly with Kent: http://talktokent.com Learn more at: geniusdiscovery.org We're always seeking aligned sponsors.⭐️ If you're interested in supporting our podcast - one episode or a season, reach out to Adrienne at Adrienne@sheleadsmedia.com.⭐️LinksReach out to Adrienne: hello@sheleadsmedia.com Visit our website: www.sheleadsmedia.com to learn about upcoming events or to work with me directly and get the clarity you’re seeking."I love ♥️ listening to The She Leads™ Podcast!” If that thought crossed your mind at any time while listening to our special show, I’d love it if you would take a moment and give our podcast some love too.

I’m opening 2026 by claiming clarity as my word for the year and sharing an honest reflection on where She Leads has been and where it is going next.In this solo episode, I share my personal journey after eleven years of serving women entrepreneurs through She Leads Media and what it means to step into a new chapter with sharper vision. A simple moment, getting new glasses, became a powerful metaphor for how deeply I’m craving clarity in my work, my focus, and the women I’m best positioned to serve. I talk candidly about the tension between wanting to help everyone and knowing that real impact requires intentionality, boundaries, and depth. At the heart of my work has always been deep listening, trusting that women already hold their own answers and need space, reflection, and support to access them.I also unpack the realities of entrepreneurship that rarely get airtime, especially for women. The same habits we bring into life, procrastination, self-doubt, resilience, show up in business, shaping outcomes for better or worse. Drawing from my teaching at NYU and Rice, I explain why foundational self-awareness matters more than any tactic or trend. I challenge the glossy, quick-fix narratives that dominate online marketing and speak honestly about the sustained effort and inner work required to build something meaningful.This episode is also a turning point. I reflect on my own realization that the current She Leads model will not reach the million-dollar scale needed to expand impact and why that matters. As I enter what feels like my third professional chapter, I share my vision for supporting women who have reached or are approaching seven figures and are asking deeper questions about purpose, burnout, and legacy.If you are craving clarity, wrestling with growth, or sensing that your next level requires a different way of leading, this conversation is for you. I invite you to listen in, reflect alongside me, and help shape the future of She Leads as we redefine what it means for women to truly lead with intention, sustainability, and impact.Chapters✨ 00:56 Welcoming 2026 with clarity and intention👩‍💼 02:46 Eleven years of serving women entrepreneurs🔍 04:20 Why clarity matters in building a sustainable business⚖️ 06:52 The real challenges and truths of entrepreneurship🎓 09:05 Teaching early stage entrepreneurs at NYU and Rice🌍 13:22 Choosing impact and purpose beyond revenue goals👑 16:47 Lessons from women who build and scale successful businesses🧭 18:27 Personal reflections on leadership and an evolving career journey💬 29:32 An invitation to reflect, connect, and move forward togetherThank you to our podcast sponsorGo From Expert to Thought Leader with the Genius Discovery Program.Book Directly with Kent: http://talktokent.com Learn more at: geniusdiscovery.org We're always seeking aligned sponsors.⭐️ If you're interested in supporting our podcast - one episode or a season, reach out to Adrienne at Adrienne@sheleadsmedia.com.⭐️LinksReach out to Adrienne: hello@sheleadsmedia.com Visit our website: www.sheleadsmedia.com to learn about upcoming events or to work with me directly and get the clarity you’re seeking."I love ♥️ listening to The She Leads™ Podcast!” If that thought crossed your mind at any time while listening to our special show, I’d love it if you would take a moment and give our podcast some love too.

From celebrating women’s representation to demanding true systemic disruption, I’m opening 2026 with a hard look at why nearly half of new businesses are started by women, yet so few ever cross the million-dollar mark.In this solo episode of She Leads, I unpack a paradox that should stop every founder and leader in her tracks: women launched 49% of new businesses in 2024, but only 4.2% reached $1 million in revenue. This isn’t a conversation about confidence or competence, it’s about systems. And more importantly, it’s about how women who succeed within existing frameworks are rewarded, while those who challenge and redesign those frameworks face resistance at every turn.I introduce a three-level disruption framework that reframes how we think about success in entrepreneurship. Level one is representation and women building profitable companies in spaces never designed for them. Level two is model disruption and changing how industries operate, from regenerative construction practices to ethical beauty brands that challenge labor and sourcing norms. And level three is systemic disruption, where success redistributes power itself, creating new pathways through employee ownership, transparent supply chains, and reinvestment into underrepresented founders.This episode also confronts uncomfortable truths: how venture capital flows toward “acceptable” women-led industries, how algorithms and infrastructure quietly reinforce bias, and how family responsibilities still disproportionately force women out of business. The data is clear, and the issue isn’t ambition or ability, it’s a system built around invisible labor and outdated definitions of success.As we step into 2026, I invite you to ask a bigger question: not just how much you want to build, but what you’re building toward. Because hitting a million dollars may require grit, but building something that lasts, scales, and changes the rules demands disruption. Tune in for a powerful redefinition of what it truly means to lead.Chapters🎉 00:56 Celebrating Women Entrepreneurs⚡ 01:44 The Real Challenges Facing Women-Led Businesses🧩 08:58 Understanding the Three Levels of Disruption🏗️ 12:02 Representation and Rethinking Business Models🌍 15:37 What Systemic Disruption Really Looks Like💰 36:38 Why Capital and Infrastructure Matter🚀 43:24 Expanding the Global Vision of She Leads✨ 49:20 Closing Reflections and a Call to ActionThank you to our podcast sponsorGo From Expert to Thought Leader with the Genius Discovery Program.Book Directly with Kent: http://talktokent.com Learn more at: geniusdiscovery.org We're always seeking aligned sponsors.⭐️ If you're interested in supporting our podcast - one episode or a season, reach out to Adrienne at Adrienne@sheleadsmedia.com.⭐️LinksReach out to Adrienne: hello@sheleadsmedia.com Visit our website: www.sheleadsmedia.com to learn about upcoming events or to work with me directly and get the clarity you’re seeking."I love ♥️ listening to The She Leads™ Podcast!” If that thought crossed your mind at any time while listening to our special show, I’d love it if you would take a moment and give our podcast some love too.

From scaling women-owned businesses past the million-dollar mark to rebuilding with clarity after burnout, I’m reflecting on the real work of leadership, discernment, and sustainable growth behind She Leads Media.In this episode, I step out from behind the mic to share my own journey as CEO of She Leads Media and host of the She Leads podcast, rooted in a mission that’s bigger than revenue alone. Less than two percent of women-owned businesses scale beyond seven figures, and I’ve dedicated my work to changing that trajectory by helping women gain access to capital, confidence, and visibility. When women succeed financially, they reinvest in their families, communities, and causes, and that ripple effect is what drives everything we do at She Leads.I open up about the non-linear realities of entrepreneurship, especially for women navigating gender, culture, and systemic barriers. I reflect on how pressure-based growth models and urgency-driven decisions caused She Leads Media to lose momentum in 2024, and how 2025 became a year of recovery, discernment, and realignment. That reset clarified that sustainable leadership is all about honoring values, resisting manipulation, and trusting your own judgment even when advice comes from impressive voices.We also explore the practical work behind scaling with intention: building sound business models, strengthening financial health, developing media strategy, and using visibility as a tool for impact. I share what I’ve learned teaching entrepreneurship at Rice University’s Jones School of Business and NYU, and why critical thinking, not blind imitation, is essential when learning from other founders’ stories.As I look ahead to 2026, I share what’s coming next for She Leads Media: personalized advisory work, curated global experiences, strategic partnerships, and renewed momentum symbolized by moving into the “year of the horse.” This episode is an honest invitation to lead with clarity, courage, and confidence, and to remember that extraordinary growth starts with conscious choice.

From Swiss banker to international bestselling author, Nathalie Botros shares how choosing self-love over external success became the catalyst for a life and business rooted in joy, authenticity, and impact.In this episode, I sit down with Nathalie Botros, known globally as The Bon Vivant Girl and a powerful Happiness Activator. Nathalie is an author, psychotherapist, mindset architect, and the Executive Editor of Ageless Living Magazine, where she curates stories that celebrate unapologetic living at every age. Our conversation begins with the magic of being together in person and the energy of women truly supporting women, not transactionally, but from a genuine place of “how can I help you.”Nathalie opens up about the pivotal moments that reshaped her life, from leaving a prestigious banking career in Switzerland to searching for fulfillment through fashion, success, and external validation. Despite checking all the “achievement” boxes, she found herself deeply unhappy. That awakening led her inward, where she began dismantling perfectionism, diet culture, and self-criticism, and replacing them with radical self-love. One simple mirror practice changed everything, transforming not only how she saw herself but how the world responded to her.We dive into the science of happiness, the myths women are conditioned to believe, and why self-love is the foundation of confident leadership, healthy relationships, and sustainable success. Nathalie also shares powerful insights for women entrepreneurs: why authenticity fuels growth, how setting boundaries protects your business, and why saying no, especially to unpaid labor, is an act of leadership, not selfishness.This episode is a reminder that true success means building a life where joy, impact, and alignment coexist. Nathalie’s story will inspire you to stop chasing validation and start leading from a place of love, clarity, and self-worth. Tune in and let this conversation reset how you live, love, and lead.Chapters🌟 01:00 Meet Nathalie Botros The Happiness Activator🚀 07:29 Nathalie’s journey from external success to self-discovery💖 12:53 The power of self-love acceptance and inner happiness🌱 20:52 Celebrating small wins and releasing comparison✨ 25:20 Letting go of the illusion of perfection👩‍💼 25:46 Empowering women entrepreneurs to lead with confidence📈 27:56 Practical strategies for sustainable business growth💎 30:12 Why self-worth is the foundation of leadership⚖️ 42:03 Redefining success through life relationships and balanceLinksWebsites:https://nathaliebotros.comhttps://thebonvivantgirl.comInstagram: @thebon_vivantgirlFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/thebonvivantgirl/LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/nathalie-botros-5a4539/Connect with Nathalie Botros through her websites and social platforms to explore her work, receive daily happiness insights, and continue the journey toward living and leading with joy.Thank you to our podcast sponsorGo From Expert to Thought Leader with the Genius Discovery Program.Book Directly with Kent: http://talktokent.com Learn more at: geniusdiscovery.org We're always seeking aligned sponsors.⭐️ If you're interested in supporting our podcast - one episode or a season, reach out to Adrienne at Adrienne@sheleadsmedia.com.⭐️LinksReach out to Adrienne: hello@sheleadsmedia.com Visit our website: www.sheleadsmedia.com to learn about upcoming events or to work with me directly and get the clarity you’re seeking."I love ♥️ listening to The She Leads™ Podcast!” If that thought crossed your mind at any time while listening to our special show, I’d love it if you would take a moment and give our podcast some love too.

As the co-owner and founder of Core Connection, she brings more than 15 years of experience in personal training, Pilates, and dance-based fitness, along with her creative world as a DJ and singer/songwriter. She’s also the creator of Groove Alchemy, a signature class that blends meditation, somatic movement, and live DJ performance into an experience that feels both grounding and electric.In our conversation, Amanda opens up about the pivotal turning points that shaped her path, from moving to LA after college to chase acting and music, and navigating an autoimmune diagnosis that changed how she related to her body and her work. What started as spontaneous opportunities evolved into a meaningful shift toward fitness when her health required a new kind of presence. Years later, that winding, intuitive journey positioned her to step into entrepreneurship, purchasing the studio that would become Core Connection alongside her co-founder, Akiko Morrison.Amanda offers profound insight into partnership, purpose, and resilience. She talks about how her diagnosis of Ankylosing Spondylitis informed her compassionate teaching style, why choosing the right co-founder is critical, and how Groove Alchemy emerged as a healing blend of her passions. She also shares her current creative projects, like DJing at LA venues, remixing her original music with AI tools like Kuno, and envisioning a full live set built entirely from her own tracks.This episode is a reminder that leadership doesn’t always begin with a business plan.

From graphic designer to multi-passionate CEO, Liz Garcia shows us what it looks like to build a life and business rooted in courage, clarity, and bold reinvention.During our conversation, I sit down with Liz, the dynamic CEO of Storage Theory and co-founder of G.W. Spice Co., whose journey into entrepreneurship began not with a business plan, but with a life-altering wake-up call. Known for her contagious energy, heartfelt storytelling, and practical approach to product-based growth, Liz also hosts The Liz Garcia Show, where she champions purpose-driven action for busy go-getters.Liz opens up about the pivotal moment in 2021 when her husband’s cancer diagnosis forced them to re-evaluate everything. That season became the catalyst for pursuing the dreams they had long postponed. After his remission in early 2022, they moved quickly to launching their first company, starting her podcast, and embracing entrepreneurship with a renewed sense of urgency. Liz also shares the unconventional, creatively structured deal that allowed them to acquire Storage Theory in 2024, proving that resourcefulness can open doors even without deep capital.Throughout our conversation, Liz breaks down the practical systems that keep her thriving while running multiple ventures, from activity stacking and time blocking, to ditching multitasking in favor of focused energy.

From STEM trailblazer to AI visionary, Dr. Tamara Nall shares her extraordinary journey of perseverance, innovation, and purpose-driven leadership, showing women what it truly means to build with legacy in mind.Growing up in Alabama and Georgia, Dr. Nall’s parents instilled a belief that education is the one thing no one can take away. When an Emory University counselor told her that STEM “wasn’t for women like her,” she didn’t retreat, she rose higher, applying that very night to a dual-degree program with Georgia Tech. She went on to become the first business student to graduate from that demanding program, blending business acumen with computer science — a foundation that would power her future as a global entrepreneur and change-maker.That same determination has guided every step of her journey. From Harvard Business School to earning a doctorate in engineering and leading The Leading Niche, her award-winning systems integration firm serving agencies like the CDC, NIH, and VA. When told she’d lost a government contract for not having a PhD, Dr. Nall didn’t internalize rejection; she transformed it into action, completing her doctorate during the pandemic while running her company full-time. Her story is one of relentless learning, courage, and redefining what’s possible for women in technology and business.In our conversation, Dr. Nall opens up about scaling sustainably, leading with empathy, and why women-owned businesses must focus not only on passion but profitability. She shares insights on strategic networking, purpose-driven culture, and her bold ventures in AI, from her platform Reli AI to Human AI Nation, where she’s exploring the evolving relationship between humans and technology. Through it all, her message is clear: innovation begins when you dare to claim the space others say you don’t belong in.This episode is a masterclass in resilience, reinvention, and responsible leadership. Tune in to hear Dr. Tamara Nall’s remarkable story and be inspired to build your own legacy of impact and innovation.Chapters 👩‍🎓 00:56 Meet Dr. Tamara Nall, Visionary Founder and CEO of The Leading Niche🎓 02:48 A Journey of Resilience and Education That Redefined Possibility🌍 11:01 The Leading Niche and Its Global Impact Through AI and Innovation💼 14:08 Women in Business and the Path to Sustainable Success🌱 18:13 Building Culture, Benefits, and a Growth Mindset in Leadership🤝 18:32 The Power of Authentic Networking and Strategic Relationships📣 21:24 She Leads Media Live 2025 – A Celebration of Women’s Leadership🤖 26:19 How AI Is Transforming Business and Personal Growth🚀 34:10 Go From Expert to Thought Leader with TalkToKent.comLinksWebsites: JuniaLegacy.com, The Leading Niche Instagram: @iamtamaranallTikTok: @iamtamaranall LinkedIn: linkedin.com/in/tamaranall Book: Business Success SecretsCheck out Dr. Tamara Nall’s websites, connect with her on social media, and explore her visionary ventures like Reli AI to discover how she’s shaping the future of leadership, technology, and legacy.She Leads Live Event Tickets: www.eventbrite.com/e/1043959088737/?discount=TheSheLeadsPODCASTConnect with Adrienne Garland at the She Leads Live conference and visit the link to reserve your spot, take advantage of the special discount, and step into a room where your leadership and vision belong.Find out more about the Genius Discovery Program: http://talktokent.comReach out to Adrienne: hello@sheleadsmedia.comVisit our website: www.sheleadsmedia.comJoin us at the upcoming She Leads LIVE 2025 conference in NYC on November 6th & 7th.
