    Tamara Munoz Builds Systems That Scale Without You

    Take Tamara’s bottleneck quiz “This is not what I want. The easiest way for me to get out of corporate because I was like, I'm going to start my business.” In this episode of Startups in Stilettos, Ingrid Zapata-Read sits down with operations expert and founder of Behind the Screens, Tamara Muñoz, to unpack the realities of building a business that actually works behind the scenes. From her early days managing high-volume operations at global brands like Disney and Starbucks to becoming a sought-after fractional COO, Tamara shares how she helps founders eliminate bottlenecks, streamline systems, and scale sustainably. As a first-generation Latina entrepreneur, Tamara brings a powerful perspective on hustle, leadership, and redefining success on your own terms. She dives into the hidden inefficiencies that keep founders stuck, how to know when your tools (and team) aren’t working for you, and why most CEOs are unknowingly the biggest bottleneck in their own business.

    Annie Graybill Builds a Marketplace for Healthier Travel

    “...when it's 80% women doing all of the cleaning, it's really important to me on that side, not just the guest side, but the people behind taking care of these places.” What if the place you’re staying on vacation could actually support your health—not compromise it? In this episode of Startups in Stilettos, host Carlyn Bushman sits down with Annie Graybill, founder of Havenwith, a wellness-forward vacation rental platform designed to make low-toxin stays simple and accessible. After building her career with mission-driven brands like Avocado Green Mattress, Annie developed a deep understanding of healthier materials and the impact our environments can have on our well-being. But it wasn’t until her own experience as an IVF mom and frequent traveler that she discovered a major gap in the hospitality industry: finding vacation rentals free from synthetic fragrances, harsh cleaning chemicals, and other hidden toxins. In this conversation, Annie shares how that personal frustration led to the creation of Havenwith—a platform connecting wellness-conscious travelers with hosts who prioritize safer, more natural environments. She also explains why certifications matter when choosing home products, the hidden risks of common cleaning supplies (especially for the women who use them professionally), and how environmental factors may play a role in long-term health and fertility.

    Emily Dempsey Builds Community and Financial Confidence

    “These are my core values. And then whether or not that eventually gets shared with partners down the road, it's kind of like your own North Star.” What happens when one woman decides to solve her own loneliness—and ends up building a 70,000-member community? In this episode of Startups in Stilettos, hosts Carlyn Bushman and Ingrid Zapata-Read sit down with Emily Dempsey, founder of The Brickell Babes, one of South Florida’s fastest-growing women’s communities. What began as a simple happy hour for women looking to make friends quickly evolved into a powerful networking ecosystem hosting more than 200 events and attracting tens of thousands of members. Emily shares how she turned an organic community into a thriving business after receiving up to 60 partnership requests a week—and the systems, strategy, and mindset shifts required to scale. The conversation dives into the realities of building a modern community brand: balancing personal branding with a growing platform, managing multiple digital spaces like Facebook and WhatsApp, and building a support team that keeps engagement high without burning out.

    Faith Morris helps Founders Untangle Their Operations

    “…help me figure out what I am, because I, that wasn't clear to me as well. If I'm going to be an entrepreneur, what am I?” In this episode of Startups in Stilettos, hosted by Ingrid Zapata-Read, we sit down with operations strategist Faith Morris to unpack the identity crisis so many entrepreneurs face when they outgrow the way they’ve been running their business—and even outgrow their own job titles. From hitting rock bottom after moving back to the U.S. from Australia, to building Remote Ops Partner from scratch, Faith shares the unfiltered truth about burnout, panic attacks, confidence loss, and the moment she realized asking for help was the breakthrough. Her story is a powerful reminder that rock bottom can be the most strategic place to rebuild.

    Sailynn Doyle Helps Women Build Sustainable Million-Dollar Businesses

    “Here's the thing. Systems truly set you free, right? It allows you to scale a business. Once I fine -tuned my machine, you know, after those two years,I literally ran my business remotely between Florida, Massachusetts, because I just put in systems.” In this episode of Startups and Stilettos, Ingrid Zapata-Read sits down with Sailynn Doyle, founder of Passion Purpose Posture, to unpack what it really takes for women entrepreneurs to build sustainable, scalable businesses—without burnout. After hitting her first million in revenue while working 80-hour weeks (and breaking down in her car at 9 a.m.), Sailynn realized that revenue alone isn’t success. What changed everything? Systems. Sailynn shares how she rebuilt her business foundation from the ground up, eventually running a multi-million-dollar company in just 16 hours a week. She walks us through her Four Core Pillars of sustainable growth—Structure, Systems, Support, and Streamlining—and explains why most founders plateau (hint: it’s not a lack of ambition).

    “...if this goes out and this doesn't work, that's going to suck.But I wanted to actually put it out from a place of very genuine. I don't know how this is going to go.
