Join me as we look at the journey of a long-time, part-time entrepreneur still juggling the life of an employee while following her passion and truth. We talk about her latest venture, Inch by Inch Empowerment, while speaking about business in the LGBTQ+ community. Aime has real passion and fire behind what she does, and is a truly amazing human, filling her cup by filling others through support and coaching. There's a really cool twist on what her main focus is, as well. Tune in to hear all about it!

Those that know her, know you'll almost never see her without a Red Bull in her hand, hence the carefully chosen episode image. Tanya Douglas shares her amazing journey from employee to entrepreneur (all while juggling young children and/or babies, I might add,) and taking the plunge into dual business ownership in one of the most risky times we've ever experienced.

She's an amazing human, not only in how she gives back to the community consistently, but in how her values and beliefs drive her success in business. Oh, and she's hilarious too!

Me again! You're beloved host, April Bouchard. This is just a quick into sharing some information about the importance of community. what types of trends we're currently seeing in business and what's to come in the rest of Season 2! Oh, and she also complains about the teasing regarding the arrival of Spring, which many can relate to.

Enjoy, and look for Season 2, Episode 1 this coming Thursday, April 6th.

We wrap up our first season with some recaps from Season 1, along with some conversation around the 2023 International Women's Day messaging and celebrations. We've got some new initiatives in our back pocket that we also chat about, so tune in for an epic finale while we work on getting Season 2 out to our faithful listeners!

All I can say for this episode is WOW, just WOW. 

I absolutely adore each and every Shero that we connect with to learn their stories and experiences!

This conversation, however, left me with a fire under my behind, literally. Allegra is a no nonsense therapist who has taken things to new levels in the therapy and counseling sector, and isn't afraid to speak her mind about what she feels are extremely impactful changes in the way therapy should be viewed and is delivered.  She went from employee to self employed, and built herself a very successful practice during one of the hardest times to start a business. Not only did she start her own practice, she persevered when some of her past colleagues were not super supportive, even to the point of being critical.

The story is so inspiring, and her personality is one of a kind. You don't want to miss this one!

There are many challenges we face on a daily basis as females in business. Life's demands and commitments can be hard enough to navigate, but when we toss in lack of self care or ignoring the messages our bodies are shouting at us when we're reaching the breaking point, it creates a whole new list of problems to overcome. 

Join us in our conversation with Julie Hodge, expert in women's health, hormones and nutrition as we delve into a fascinating discussion about how things can change when we're middle- aged and still trying to maintain the "hustle" that we've been conditioned to believe is our duty or paramount to our success in business. There is a better way that will leave you feeling fulfilled, healthy and balanced, which will drive your success further than you could ever imagine.
