BONUS EPISODE: Meet the fadedRED Team 

I love this podcast! The women on this podcast are real and talk about real life and  real struggles. I love the Embolden episodes, I can relate the the age and Lifestage of those girls and find comfort knowing that I’m not alone.  It’s nice to hear others talk about the stress of getting into college, finding friends, and having struggles with parents.  Some of my friends in high school have also said the podcast is helping them. Definitely give this podcast a try if you haven’t!

Real Women, Real Life

As a young female entrepreneur, listening to this podcast has given me affirmation in my own career. It inspires me to strive to be bold and to serve others, especially women! I love how down to earth interview style is - it feels like you’re sitting there with good friends. The storytelling is lovely, it’s inspiring to get a fuller picture of what the lives of female leaders looks like!
