Full of learnings and wisdom

As a solo-preneur (and non-lawyer), I thoroughly enjoy listening to Catherine`s podcast. I identify with many of the challenges and learnings that her guests face as they create and navigate their careers and lives. Catherine is an excellent interviewer, actively listening and eliciting deeper knowledge and nuggets of wisdom from her guests. She also asks fun, personal questions that give us insights into these interesting, powerful women.
