Aly Porter introduces the episode, expressing excitement about guest Michelle Schaffer and the mission of Girl Power Alliance. They discuss aligning faith with profession and Michelle's journey, including her Sold Out Entrepreneur podcast.
As a lifelong entrepreneur and passionate follower of Jesus, Michelle Schaffer never found a place she could be fully authentic. In professional circles, professing her faith was discouraged. In circles of ministry, talking business was discouraged. She has always been taught, if you want to be successful in business you never talk about politics and religion.
Girl Power Alliance was Founded in 2020. “I wanted to create a community where women like me could truly be authentic. I believed that sharing your faith boldly as an entrepreneur was not a weakness, but a massive strength.” – Michelle Schaffer
