    63. Not settling for "good enough" with Bryn Davis Williams and Jessica Bosman

    The Entrepreneur Podcast is launching a new series, handing the microphone to women entrepreneurs doing exciting things in a wide array of industries.
    In this series, we hand them the microphone to share their stories, experiences, trials, tribulations and successes.
    And we kick it off with Bryn Davis Williams and Jessica Bosman, two Ivey HBAs, who’ve joined forces to disrupt the women’s undergarment industry. Their venture, DOUBL is driven by the conviction that women’s shouldn’t have to settle for “good enough.”
    With the help of technology, and recycled material, DOUBL offers women custom bras that are made to fit just right! Williams and Bosman talk about balancing their careers, reframing their brand to male investors, and the importance of a supportive community.
    Find out more about DOUBL's Kickstarter Campaign starting on April 30th at https://www.mydoubl.com/
