Starting it in business is no easy feat—especially for women, who face a variety of challenges that their male counterparts don’t. Despite this, women founders have made massive strides, and the support of fellow female entrepreneurs is a great way to boost that growth even further.

We also touch on the value of curiosity, why women’s health and related products are so often overlooked, and what Tammy has learned from her biggest missteps as a founder.
