Real talk

I really appreciate Erica’s vulnerability and honesty. There are so many podcasts geared toward female entrepreneurs and leadership through that lens. Thankful that she’s focused on exec women / women in leadership roles in organizations. While the advice perhaps could be the same, the context difference does matter a lot. Thanks for producing the show!

Drawing out the good stuff in guests

Telling it like it is

The host Erica is not afraid to talk about what is really holding you back and what is actually true about the work that it takes to move forward. In a world that has been blasted with platitudes, Erica is the real deal. So lucky I found this pod!
