At last count, the U.S. was home to about 10.3 million teen girls (15 to 19) thinking about who they want to be — but not quite sure how to get there. 

That’s where former M&A lawyer Illana Raia comes in. Illana has founded Être, a mentorship platform to connect girls in the U.S., Canada and India with female leaders to help them see potential futures for themselves. Illana joins Jennifer to talk about her mission, organization and going global in a pandemic.
