Show Notes:

In this solo episode, Sara shares the story behind Chicks Who Give A Hoot and how the podcast evolved into a nonprofit organization dedicated to connecting entrepreneurship with community impact. Reflecting on conversations with women founders, she discusses the "advocacy and impact gap" she noticed in traditional entrepreneurial spaces and why she believes women entrepreneurs are uniquely positioned to drive meaningful change in their communities.

She also looks back on the success of the first Chicks Who Give A Hoot Live event and previews this year's gathering on March 28, themed "Bloom Where You're Planted." Designed as a bridge between entrepreneurship and philanthropy, the event brings together women founders, nonprofit organizations, and aligned sponsors to mobilize business influence for community good.
