How are we to address the blatant inequality during our time? One of the things we can do is to support female-owned businesses. Corinna Bellizzi’s guest in this episode is Sarah Dusek, the founder of Enygma Ventures. Sarah laments that only 2% out of 100% of all the venture capital funding goes to women-led businesses in the US. As women, it’s our duty to champion one another. Do you want to know how you can help balance the scale? If you say “YES,” you’d love to tune in this episode. Enjoy!
