We are SO happy to welcome Olivia June to the podcast today! She is the Founder and CEO of VINA, the tech company that connects, celebrates, and empowers women. We just love the whole concept behind why she created this incredible app that connects women– it’s like Tinder for (girl) friends! It’s connected millions of women in 158 countries. Olivia is the Editor in Chief of Vinazine.com a media outlet with stories and advice from and for women of the VINA community. Olivia is also behind the brag movement to encourage more women to share their accomplishments through the LadyBrag.com platform.
