Today's episode is a recording of a live Hangout I co-hosted with Jules Taggart of Amp and Pivot. We talked about how and why we started Thrive Hive, an online community for women entrepreneurs, how to find communities and the 6 ways to get the most out of the communities that you are a part of.

We talked about meeting up IRL and turning handshakes into hugs and the power of the micro-economy that you can benefit from when you join the right communities.
