Power Women of South Florida Podcast

Recently I was interviewed by Lauren Wion of Power Women of South Florida Podcast. She’s with the Realview Network and one of the best conversationalists I’ve had the pleasure of working with recently. Power Women of South Florida is a podcast series that highlights female entrepreneurs in the greater Miami area who are working everyday to transform and impact the South Florida community.

It’s pretty cool to be given a platform to share your thoughts and experiences in the hope they might help someone else.

We talked about doing business in the times of Coronavirus, keeping communication streamlined and focused and about how non-profits can utilize virtual outlets to globalize their message.
