Adrienne's guest today is Elizabeth Kramer, a multi-passionate serial entrepreneur. Her deep operational experience in large corporations allowed her to navigate through different industries, across different types of careers, and then ultimately to embrace entrepreneurship, as she always dreamed of. Elizabeth shares her amazing stories on purchasing a business - and the criteria she used - instead of building them from zero. During the pandemic, Elizabeth decided to create a business of her own to inspire, and empower women by uplifting them through coaching with no-bullshit advice.

What is The She Leads® Podcast - Wealth Building & Business Growth?
The She Leads Podcast is where women entrepreneurs and business leaders get the real strategies behind scaling a business to one million dollars and beyond. Each week, host Adrienne Garland, CEO of She Leads Media, professor at NYU and Rice University, and business growth advisor, speaks with women who have actually built it: founders who broke past the revenue ceiling, executives leading thousands, and strategists rethinking how women build wealth, lead teams, and grow companies. Episodes cover business growth strategies for women, from pricing and hiring to leadership communication, AI and the future of work, networking and social capital, and the founder to CEO transition. If you're a woman entrepreneur building toward your first million or your next one, this is the show that meets you where you actually are: past the motivational fluff, deep in the work, and ready to scale.
