Hey you wild women!

My next guests are creating a global movement to empower women. And they're using roller skates to do it. They want women to be as powerful in their life, community, and business as they are on their roller skates. They want women to find the beauty in what their body can do and how it feels, not what it looks like, and use that to strengthen each other.

This duo came together to launch Rolla Skate Club and also invented a brand new version of roller derby called "Short Track Roller Derby". It premiered at Rollercon in 2018 and it is now being played on 6 continents. They don't make any money off this adventure but they believe it will save the sport of Roller Derby -- something they are both truly passionate about.

In this episode you will learn about:

• Where Lucy and Carla come from.
• Why Lucy would rather be someone's shot of whisky than everyone's cup of tea.
• How Carla takes up space with no fear.

• Bringing roller skate culture to the masses.
• Knowing your target audience and creating something for them.
• Why Carla went against advice to work with a business partner in Rolla Skate Club.
• How creating products without markets backfired for Lucy.
• Learning to listen to yourself over others.

• Knowing the personal before building the business.
• The value of accountability.
• What to ask before you commit to a business partnership.
• The importance of ongoing check-ins with your partner.
