✅ Deep down, we all know what is the next step in our business: action is the best step forward! 06:44
🃏 Christina's infertility and a child with special needs helped her stop being an overachiever: don't get stuck in grief because you got a new set of cards - just play them! 08:34
💎 Pre-mum Christina had a pedigree to her hairstylist career with her girlfriend, and she walked away peacefully from that business without asking for a percentage: the value doesn't always come in the form of money. 14:19
📢 Christina's platform is a free, valuable space for people to come, and the audience is mostly women 20 to 40 years old: everybody should have a podcast and make an impact because we all have a story to tell and the potential to change at least one person's life. 19:35

What is The She Leads® Podcast - Wealth Building & Business Growth?
The go-to podcast for women entrepreneurs and leaders growing and scaling to $1 million and beyond while building lasting wealth. Each week, Adrienne Garland offers real and insightful conversations that dive deep with bold women entrepreneurs, executives, and leaders across the globe — stripping away the sugar-coating to get at what actually matters. This podcast is for driven women entrepreneurs and leaders growing their businesses for profit and impact.
Adrienne is a Professor at NYU and Rice University, an entrepreneur, and a business growth advisor. She's also an MBA grad, and that bold business friend who asks the questions other women in business podcasts shy away from.
Topics covered: scaling to seven figures and why it matters for women and the world, funding women-owned businesses, amplifying your voice and visibility, building high-value networks, leadership, designing entrepreneurial ecosystems that benefit humanity, the importance of financial acumen and literacy, and wealth building strategies
Less than 2% of women-owned businesses scale beyond seven figures. The She Leads® Podcast exists to change that.
