I interviewed 162 women during one year of COVID by Erin Keam

Kia Ora, I'm Erin Keam from erinkeam.com. I offer mentoring, marketing, and mindset coaching. In winter 2020, I was hit hard with SAD (Seasonal Affected Disorder). My coach told me to call a woman I didn't know every day... and turn that into a podcast, showcasing what they do. Some days were a struggle to pick up the phone, other (sunny) days I was on fire...but ALL my guests are amazing. Reach out to them! Oh, and I usually asked a question about their closet, as I love clothes, plus it can be extremely personal to women. I thank every woman who picked up the phone.

    Dr. Lex talks about her podcast Luxesci, which offers champagne & seafoam, sequins & DNA and the hard work that goes into creating a vaccine.

    Dr. Lex is an immunologist with over 10 years of experience working in different arenas within global health to advance the movement of interventions out of the laboratory and into clinical trials. She started her career working in research labs for two pharmaceutical companies, supporting clinical trial analysis and drug development. After obtaining her Masters’ degree in Public Health Microbiology at The George Washington University, Dr. Lex worked for a non-profit vaccine development organization. From there she studied at the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, helping to develop improved diagnostic tests for parasitic diseases and conducting research on the efficacy of large-scale public health interventions for disease elimination. Dr. Katsis completed her PhD in Microbiology and Immunology at The George Washington University, working in a NIH lab focused on parasite immunology and somehow managing to where heels while splitting cell cultures and doing flow cytometry. Since graduating, Dr. Lex has worked for philanthropic organizations and academic research centers supporting cutting-edge research and HIV and COVID clinical trials. When not immersing herself in all things geeky, Dr. Lex can be found ruminating on red carpet fashion choices with her friends, enjoying an occasional glass of champagne and trying to find ways to satisfy her overly curious mind.

    Angie Viehman from Clutch Businesses on how to build an e-commerce store in 6 hours and how to save your business and your life.

Angie recently launched a course that shows women how to build a profitable e-commerce store in less than a day. They're able to replace their full-time income, make their own hours and love what they do.

  8. Jean Kercheval from Kercheval Photography on the importance of an up-to-date headshot, getting glamorous and how Pinterest can help with a photo shoot.

    Jean Kercheval from Kercheval Photography on the importance of an up-to-date headshot, getting glamorous and how Pinterest can help with a photo shoot.

    Jean is a personal branding and women’s contemporary portrait photographer at Kercheval Photography. She has been in her current business for the last seven years but has been taking portraits of people for over 25 years. Before that, she worked in mental health care, which she believes brings a sense of connection and sensitivity to her work. The goal of her portraiture is to put people at ease, draw out their authenticity, produce beautiful work, and have fun! People tend to come to their photoshoot nervous and leave with high confidence, saying “hey, that was so much fun!”. She has been published in various magazines for her creative shoots and received multiple awards for her portraiture through an international photo group called the Portrait Masters Association. In 2020, she also published a personal passion project called the Quarter Life Crisis Project, a digital magazine with photos and interviews of 21 young people discussing a time in their life of challenge, change and angst. She doesn’t know yet what her next passion project might be, but is always looking for inspiration wherever she goes and with the people she meets. Jean loves what she does and wants to show everyone the beauty she sees in each and every one of them.
