    015 Season Finale with Alessia

    Hello and welcome to the Finale of the First Season of the F.E.M. podcast. In this episode, I will be going over some of my favorite moments from the season. When I started the podcast in May of this year, I had no idea how profound the learnings from these conversations would be. There are so many quotes from these powerful women that have resonated profoundly and that I find myself repeating daily.  Look out for Season 2 which I will be recording during the next few months. If you want to be a speaker or want to recommend a speaker, please email me via the Contact Form on the FemaleEmpowermentMarket.com website. In the interim, I invite you to sign up to my weekly newsletter that comes out each Monday night, where I share brands of female-founded companies that I am looking to incorporate into my life.  As always, please LIKE, SUBSCRIBE, SHARE, COMMENT, RATE this podcast so we can keep sharing the stories of more amazing women.
