8 Top Podcasts Every Female Entrepreneur Should Be Listening To Right Now!
The realm of female-led entrepreneurship brings both its delightful rewards and daunting challenges. In one moment, we may experience pure bliss after a successful meeting, but in the next, there might be the sinking feeling of losing a valuable client.
We have seen a huge rise in women entrepreneurs during the past decades, and with the number constantly growing, there is a great need for support to help navigate the inevitable ups and downs; female entrepreneurship is very much like a rollercoaster, after all!
Whether your business is just in the beginning of the business lifecycle or it is matured and continuing to expand, having a strong sense of community around you is crucial to success; this means connecting with individuals who can help you to focus on your business goals and vision and encourage you to stay motivated in your endeavours.
Furthermore, by aligning yourself with people in the same realm and allowing for mentorship, there is a chance of new opportunities and a much stronger network.
If you’re currently scratching your head from home [as you work solo in front of your computer] thinking, ‘how do I actually find these suitable mentors?’, fear not, because mentorship comes in many different forms and does not always have to be this direct interaction with another person.
In today’s online world, we are flooded with podcasts, and a huge portion of those podcasts focus specifically on guiding entrepreneurs on a successful business journey.
Podcasts are indeed a fantastic resource to informally connect with top mentors; they allow you the opportunity to hear expertise from some of these individuals you may not meet face to face, as well as gain the proper insight to confidently persevere with your business. All for free!
