For inspiration from top female leaders...
Skimm’d From The Couch is hosted by the co-founders of theSkimm, a company that sends out a newsletter that tells busy women the most important news of the day. In the early days of their start-up, Carly Zakin and Danielle Weisberg learned a lot from networking with entrepreneurs, and when they asked them how they started, their answers weren’t what they expected. They decided that young entrepreneurs needed to hear about “life in the trenches” of starting a business, so they began Skimm’d From The Couch, where they interview powerful female leaders about their career wins and struggles. We recommend checking out their interviews with Erika Nardini, CEO of Barstool Sports, Dr. Leana Wen, the former head of Planned Parenthood, and Valerie Jarret, former Sr. Advisor to President Obama.
