Girl Boss Gang

I’ve listened to this podcast over the years and it’s been so enjoyable hearing women who are further in life than me share their experiences, ups downs, perspectives and wins over challenges. This podcast is a breadth of fresh air week by week even the non finance related parts. It all just works, definitely listen if you are trying to achieve anything in life while remaining integral and balanced especially as a women. It’s inspirational and encouraging to hear these two ladies experiences and advice week by week.
