What happens when ambition meets instinct—and refuses to wait its turn? In this episode of Future is Female, we sit down with Bita Jedo, Future is Female Award winner and Forbes 30 Under 30 honoree, to unpack a career that’s moved at breakneck speed across PR, influencer marketing, tech platforms, and cultural brand partnerships—all before 30.

She breaks down how to spot the right talent at the right moment, why authenticity beats reach every time, and how strong relationships—not just networking—power the creator economy.

On this episode of The Future is Female, host Katie Kempner sits down with Taylor Guglielmo — President of Chemistry, lifelong ad-industry believer, culture-builder, mother, advocate, and 2023 Future Is Female honoree. In a conversation that is equal parts deeply personal and fiercely inspiring, Taylor traces her unconventional career path from Pentagon intern to agency president, including the surprising (and delicious) tactic that first got her foot in the door. Taylor reveals how she approaches leadership in a time of unprecedented industry change, the experimental culture driving Chemistry’s growth, and why she believes women succeed by leaning in when moments get uncomfortable. She opens up about raising a son with Marfan syndrome, navigating caregiver responsibilities as a working mother, and transforming personal crisis — including her son’s experience surviving a devastating school shooting — into meaningful advocacy for gun-safety conversations and bipartisan reform. Together, Katie and Taylor explore what women in leadership truly need today: boundaries, empathy, transparency, and workplaces that honor the full lives women lead. Taylor also shares her vision of a future where women in charge aren’t “trailblazers” — they’re simply leaders.
