  • Inspiring!

    Thank you for sharing so many inspiring stories! It’s expanded my perception of what could be and how even the most successful women have felt imposter syndrome. They chose to brave and bold anyways, betting on themselves!

    Can we please have an episode on Hillary’s story?!

  • Generally solid but sometime misses

    These guests are such gets and even if we know a brand or a product, I still want to know the backstory. Like how did Pistola get its name? May seem like common knowledge but what keeps me listening is the story. When it's missing I feel like not only is it a lost opportunity but it makes this show sound like everything else out there.

  • Insufferable host

    Host likes the sound of her own voice too much to conduct any meaningful interviews. Definition of white privilege. Maybe consider getting some guest hosts from different backgrounds. For now I’m out.

  • Love the focus

    How often do I look at someone and think, “how the heck did she get there?” This podcast answers my question! I love the focus on the nonlinear career path of inspiring professionals and experts, plus Hillary’s questions about mistakes and time machines and more. I found the show via Emily Nagoski and I’m glad to be here.
