Podcasts about female founders

From STEM trailblazer to AI visionary, Dr. Tamara Nall shares her extraordinary journey of perseverance, innovation, and purpose-driven leadership, showing women what it truly means to build with legacy in mind.Growing up in Alabama and Georgia, Dr. Nall's parents instilled a belief that education is the one thing no one can take away. When an Emory University counselor told her that STEM “wasn't for women like her,” she didn't retreat, she rose higher, applying that very night to a dual-degree program with Georgia Tech. She went on to become the first business student to graduate from that demanding program, blending business acumen with computer science — a foundation that would power her future as a global entrepreneur and change-maker.That same determination has guided every step of her journey. From Harvard Business School to earning a doctorate in engineering and leading The Leading Niche, her award-winning systems integration firm serving agencies like the CDC, NIH, and VA. When told she'd lost a government contract for not having a PhD, Dr. Nall didn't internalize rejection; she transformed it into action, completing her doctorate during the pandemic while running her company full-time. Her story is one of relentless learning, courage, and redefining what's possible for women in technology and business.In our conversation, Dr. Nall opens up about scaling sustainably, leading with empathy, and why women-owned businesses must focus not only on passion but profitability. She shares insights on strategic networking, purpose-driven culture, and her bold ventures in AI, from her platform Reli AI to Human AI Nation, where she's exploring the evolving relationship between humans and technology. Through it all, her message is clear: innovation begins when you dare to claim the space others say you don't belong in.This episode is a masterclass in resilience, reinvention, and responsible leadership. Tune in to hear Dr. Tamara Nall's remarkable story and be inspired to build your own legacy of impact and innovation.Chapters

In this unfiltered, soul-resonant episode of Mental Health News Radio, Kristin Sunanta Walker, sits down with her dear friend Chaya Mallavaram—artist, technologist, and founder of Spark Launch, the company behind the neurodivergent-centered platform Sparkade. What begins as a casual reconnection blooms into a radiant, multidimensional conversation about art, grief, ADHD, cultural legacy, and the spiritual technology of the body.Early in the episode, Chaya shares that her late mother's name was Sunanda—a revelation that strikes Kristin deeply, as her own Thai name is Sunanta. This name resonance becomes a symbolic thread, weaving their shared lineage, creativity, and healing paths together across continents and generations. These are two neurodivergent women who both run their own companies and genuinely dig each other's company.This episode is a reminder of how people like us actually speak—luminous, layered, nonlinear, and fully alive.Chaya Mallavaram is a technologist, professional artist, and advocate who brings her own life experience to the heart of neurodivergent empowerment. For more than two decades, Chaya thrived in the software world — not despite her ADHD, but because of it. Her creative problem-solving, pattern recognition, hyperfocus, and nonlinear thinking weren't obstacles. They were assets.​Everything shifted in 2020, when her son was diagnosed with ADHD. That moment brought not only clarity, but a calling: to build the kind of support system she wished she and her son had growing up. Today, Chaya leads Spark Launch with a rare blend of technical expertise, artistic vision, and deep personal insight. Whether she's developing tools, leading strategy, or co-hosting the Spark Launch podcast, she's creating spaces where neurodivergent minds are seen, heard, and celebrated. Her work is rooted in one belief: When we stop trying to fix neurodivergent people — and start designing systems that work for them — everyone benefits.www.sparklaunch.comBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/mental-health-news-radio--3082057/support.

She reminds us that wealth management is not simply about investments but about stewardship, confidence, and understanding the bigger picture of your life.

Brynn Putnam is the founder of innovative tech companies Mirror and Board. Before entering the tech space, she spent her first life as a professional ballerina. In between performing with big productions and studying at Harvard University, she taught fitness classes on the side to make ends meet. Her side hustle became her full-time one after college when she started her own fitness boutique in New York. Putnam's pivot into the fitness space would then lead her to tech with her invention of Mirror, a high-tech piece of equipment that could seamlessly bring personalized fitness classes directly into your home. When she launched Mirror in 2019, it was a huge hit—especially during the pandemic when folks were confined to their homes during lockdown. Her company saw so much success that she soon sold it to Lululemon in a deal valued at $500 million. Now, after establishing herself as a tech pioneer, Putnam is onto her next venture in the space—this time with Board, an innovative, first-of-its-kind product that blends the magic of video games with the feel of board games. It also just launched at TechCrunch Disrupt today.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Sign up for the FREE Live Webinar: Get Off the ‘Hot Girl' Hamster Wheel You've done all the ‘right' things: invested in quality skincare, followed the routines, even cleaned up your diet, yet your skin still doesn't look as vibrant as it used to. What if the culprit isn't just age, but inflammaging? In this week's episode, Dr. Mary Alice Mina sits down with Dr. Orie Achonwa, a physician and wellness expert, to break down the science and soul of inflammation, aging, and the modern lifestyle that's accelerating both. Together, they explore how chronic stress, sleep deprivation, processed foods, and our ‘always-on' digital lives silently inflame the body, and how this shows up on your skin. Dr. Orie blends her background in holistic health and dermatology to reveal how small, intentional changes can restore balance, vitality, and radiance from the inside out. Key Takeaways: ✓ Inflammaging is real: Chronic, low-grade inflammation accelerates visible signs of aging like fine lines, dullness, and loss of elasticity. ✓ Your skin is an organ of reflection, not just protection. It mirrors your stress, sleep, diet, and emotional well-being. ✓ Sleep is skincare. When cortisol stays high, your barrier weakens and hydration drops, leading to faster aging. ✓ Balanced blood sugar = better collagen. Spikes in glucose cause glycation, which stiffens and weakens skin proteins. ✓ Think beyond “anti-aging.” The goal is to nourish your body with protein, vitamin C, and colorful, whole foods. ✓ You don't need expensive supplements or extreme routines. Small, consistent lifestyle shifts calm inflammation from the inside out. Tune in to hear Dr. Mary Alice Mina and Dr. Orie Achonwa discuss the hidden link between inflammation and aging, and how you can nurture your skin through balance, rest, and nourishment! Dr. Orie Achonwa is a dermatology research-scientist, award-winning skincare formulator, and has been a wellness coach to corporate elite, entertainers, and a diplomat for over a decade.  Named a Healthcare Innovator by UnitedHealthcare and Female Founder to Watch by Thrive Global, she's presented her original research on anti-inflammatory modalities for improving the skin barrier at national conferences including the Integrative Dermatology Symposium and Florida Academy of Dermatology.  She's the founder of PhytoRadiance™ and creator of Radiance Protocol™ — a science-driven, lifestyle-based system that helps people address the root causes of skin aging through nervous system regulation, gut health, and hormonal balance.

In this inspiring conversation, Cinthia Pacheco speaks with Valerie Priester, CEO and Founder of Victorious Life Coaching, about the inner work behind lasting business success. They explore what confidence really looks like for women entrepreneurs, why fear can actually be a good sign, and how journaling, meditation, and self-trust can transform the way you show up as a leader. Valerie shares her personal journey from self-doubt to empowered action, reminding us that confidence isn't something you're born with—it's something you build through courageous, aligned decisions. Key Takeaways Confidence is a muscle—you strengthen it every time you take action despite fear. Fear often signals growth. If it feels uncomfortable, you're probably on the right path. Internal work matters as much as strategy. Entrepreneurship is a personal development journey first. Journaling and meditation help you quiet the noise, reconnect with your intuition, and lead with clarity. Alignment over imitation: True confidence comes from showing up as yourself, not copying others. Women leaders bring empathy and impact—owning that power creates ripple effects in communities.    Topics Covered The real connection between confidence and action How fear can become a compass for growth Navigating self-doubt and imposter syndrome Emotional leadership for women founders Why self-awareness is essential for sustainable success Practical tools to strengthen confidence daily   Favorite Quotes “Confidence only comes when you take action. If you never take action, you can't build confidence.” – Valerie Priester “If you're feeling fear, you're probably headed in the right direction.” – Valerie Priester “Entrepreneurship is more about developing you than developing a business.” – Valerie Priester   Valerie's Bio: Valerie Priester, Mindset & Strategy Catalyst Valerie Priester equips high-achieving women entrepreneurs, those seasoned founders who've hit a plateau yet feel the pull of “something bigger” to trade lingering self-doubt for crystal-clear direction and strategic momentum.   As Founder of Victorious Life Coaching LLC, Valerie fuses deep mindset mastery with practical, values-aligned business strategy so her clients don't just dream about next- level growth, they execute it with confidence and consistency. Drawing on her own journey of resilience and years in coaching, she offers a proven framework that helps women clarify bold goals, map profitable growth plans, and take decisive action.   Valerie is a Certified Master Business Mindset Coach, Sacred Money Archetype™ Coach, Money Breakthrough™ Business Coach, Les Brown Coach-Trainer-Speaker, Christian Life Coach, international best-selling author, and motivational speaker.   Her mission is simple: empower ambitious women to play a bigger game, amplify their impact, and design their victory turning purposeful vision into sustainable success and genuine fulfillment.   Connect with Valerie Priester Here's the link to my free Break Through Your Confidence Plateau Guide: https://go.valeriepriester.com/break-through-your-confidence-plateau/ Website: valeriepriester.com LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/valeriepriester/ Facebook:https://www.facebook.com/ValeriePriesterVLC IG:@ vpriester Connect with Cinthia Pacheco & Digital Bloom IQ Website: digitalbloomiq.com Instagram: @digitalbloomiq Join the newsletter In Full Bloom for SEO insights and calm business growth.   Voice Over, Mixing and Mastering Credits: L.

Melissa Morris is the founder of Métier, an innovative luxury handbag brand well-revered for its commitment to combining fashion and function. Before starting her own luxury brand, Morris had worked in merchandising and design for some of the biggest names in luxury, including Helmut Lang, Armani, Belstaff, and LVMH. But in all her years working for brands, she noticed a lack of bags that actually served the wearer. Métier was born from Morris's vision for accessories that were both elegant and practical. She dreamed of a line that offered customers the perfect bag for any occasion with a seasonless and timeless aesthetic. Despite having never designed a handbag in her life, she used her degree in sculpture and her career in merchandising to engineer the bags of her dreams with her customers in mind. Métier took off after its founding in 2017, garnering a cult following, and the bags have even been spotted in award-winning Hollywood productions like Succession and The White Lotus. It's also secured major celebrity endorsements, earning praise from stars like Nicole Kidman, who has been seen wearing them both on and off screen. Morris continues to prove her commitment to her customers today as Métier develops new bespoke options for its loyal devotees.

From poet to paper artist and conscious entrepreneur, Janna Willoughby-Lohr shares how she built a purpose-driven company that proves creativity and sustainability can spark community, connection, and real economic change.Janna is the founder and lead artist of Papercraft Miracles, an eco-friendly handmade paper art studio in Buffalo, New York, creating everything from plantable seed paper to realistic paper flowers for clients like Lionel Richie, Lowe's, Pinterest, and Capital One. Named a Top 10 NAWBO Woman Business Owner of the Year and featured on discovery+'s Meet Your Makers Showdown, Janna has carved out a powerful space in the art and business world by choosing impact over unchecked growth.Her journey began with financial limitations that led her to Warren Wilson College, where she unexpectedly discovered the book arts department and experienced a spiritual awakening through papermaking. When traditional programs failed to support her vision, she built her own major, combining business, creative arts, and social work, at just nineteen years old. That innovative mindset taught her early on that artists don't just need technical skill, they need communication, confidence, and courage to own their voice.In our conversation, Janna dismantles the myth that artists can't thrive financially and challenges the toxic “fempreneur” culture selling unrealistic success. Instead, she offers a framework of conscious entrepreneurship grounded in sustainability, community, and stakeholder-focused models like B Corps. She shares practical insights on scaling with intention, overcoming imposter syndrome, and designing businesses that honor both people and the planet.We also dive into authenticity in leadership, the evolution of women's roles in business, and the rising demand for connection in a digital age. Janna's work proves that handmade, meaningful experiences can combat isolation and rebuild community, and that women entrepreneurs are uniquely positioned to lead this shift. This episode is an inspiring reminder that your creativity, your voice, and your vision matter more than perfection.Tune in to hear how Janna is redefining success and lighting the path for purpose-driven founders everywhere.Chapters

After leading high-impact teams at Uber, Oscar Health, and even the U.S. Department of Treasury, Meghan Joyce stepped out on her own to tackle one of modern life's biggest bottlenecks: the endless “life admin” tasks stealing our time. As co-founder and CEO of Duckbill, she's building a human-first AI assistant that blends machine intelligence with real-world persistence to help people take back control of their days.In this conversation, Meghan shares the kitchen-table moment that sparked Duckbill, what she learned navigating hyper-growth cultures at Uber and Oscar, and why “human-in-the-loop” help is the future of productivity. She opens up about the mindset shift that made her leap from operator to founder, and how motherhood reshaped her leadership and boundaries.From early experiments that de-risked her idea to the values that now guide her team (“high standards, high support”), Meghan breaks down how she built a startup culture that balances speed with empathy. She also offers grounded advice on raising values-aligned capital, using AI without guilt, and redefining success for founders who want both ambition and presence.Timestamps: [00:00] Introduction [02:37] The kitchen moment that sparked Duckbill [05:46] Lessons learned from Uber and Oscar Health [09:02] Why Duckbill blends AI efficiency with human touch [10:28] Knowing when it's time to leap into entrepreneurship [14:43] Early hiring decisions and how her leadership evolved [19:04] Defining company values and keeping them alive [26:17] Finding values-aligned investors and staying mission-driven [32:41] Using AI without guilt and redefining help [43:26] How motherhood reshaped her leadership and boundaries [48:37] Running low-stakes experiments before taking the leap [52:03] Lightning-round personal insights and closing reflectionResources Mentioned:Duckbill | WebsitePersonal History by Katharine Graham | Book or AudiobookFollow Meghan Joyce:Instagram: @meghanvjoyceLinkedIn: @meghanvjoycewww.getduckbill.comFollow Nancy Twine:Instagram: @nancytwinewww.nancytwine.comFollow Makers Mindset:Instagram: @makersmindsetspaceTikTok: @themakersmindsetwww.makersmindset.com

Jenee Naylor is the personality behind the beloved luxury fashion blog HighLowLuxxe and the founder of 12PM Studios. Before she became a full-time content creator, she held leadership roles at Target. She stayed at the chain for eight years as a general manager and store director, building up her people management skills, with the goal of one day becoming CEO. But she also found joy in running HighLowLuxxe on the side, posting fashion content on her days off and interacting with her growing audience. After feeling like her growth had been stunted at her day job, Naylor left Target to run her blog full-time. Her continued authenticity and dedication to her platform have made her a fashion authority and a dream partner for brands. She even had a full-circle moment being invited back to Target—only this time, she was launching her own fashion line. Now, after years of establishing herself in the luxury fashion industry, Naylor decided to launch her own luxury eyewear brand, 12PM Studios.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

As we head into the final quarter of the year, Kris invites you to shift your focus—from running the business to owning the business. She challenges high-achieving female founders to stop operating on autopilot and start thinking like the visionary asset holders they are.

In 2013, Gregg Renfrew founded Beautycounter—the beauty brand that pioneered what we know today as the clean beauty movement. The brand gained a well-respected reputation for its commitment to using safe ingredients in its products and for refusing to include any formulas that contained questionable or harmful chemicals. Renfrew's commitment to customer health and her advocacy for cosmetic regulation set her apart from her competitors at a time when clean beauty was just an idea, not an entire industry. She last joined us in 2019, before the company's sale to a private equity firm in a deal that valued the brand at $1 billion. Since then, she's had to make several pivots—from being asked to step down as CEO to leaving her own company to watching it go into foreclosure. Her latest pivot has involved starting a new company with the same commitment to clean beauty called Counter, and she's back to tell us all about the new venture.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
