Customer Reviews
Fun informative podcast
I just listened to 5 things we wish someone had told us before we started episode. Michelle and Melissa talk about advice they wish had before starting their freelancing careers. I really connected with their thoughts on Imposter syndrome, especially in running your business.
Wobizzle is the Shizzle
These ladies are well prepared. I've only heard a couple of casts, but both times, was able to glean some gold. Worth a listen for sure.
Lots of great nuggets from their years of experience!
It's like having some awesome female mentors to help you and guide you as you are working on your business! Who wouldn't love that?! I found hearing from their perspectives as women in business really refreshing - I think there are some unique challenges that women face and they nicely touch on some of those things. They drop a lot of value bombs from their combined years of experience, and with each episode I have been able to take away some practical strategies to apply. You can tell they have a strong friendship with each other, and that they really care about lifting up other women in business. Keep it up Michelle and Melissa!! Looking forward to future episodes.
