The Jewish Women Entrepreneurs & Leaders Podcast

Where we have fascinating conversations about Business, Feminine and Jewish Leadership

In this podcast, we will interview successful Jewish Women who have had a unique and interesting entrepreneurship and leadership journey. We will talk about their challenges, their questions and their achievements.

Together, we will explore what it means for them to be a Jewish woman in business or in leadership, and we will focus on questions around Business Leadership, Feminine Leadership and Jewish Leadership.

As Jewish women entrepreneurs and leaders, we are each navigating unique and yet similar challenges. We will address those issues in our interviews, such as: how do we align our business with our Jewish identity; how do we step outside of our comfort zone to become the leaders we want to be; how do we overcome biases; and how do we build confidence in male-dominated industries.

We will also provide practical tips and lessons learned for you, our listeners, who are already entrepreneurs and leaders, and we hope that you will be inspired by our guests’ journey and that you will get precious advice and insights from their experience.

We hope that these discussions will resonate with you, that they will make you think and inspire you to be the Leader you want to be, aligning your Business, Jewish and Feminine leadership together in one person, which is your most authentic self.

The Jewish Women Entrepreneurs & Leaders Podcast is hosted by Nathalie Garson, who is the CEO of The Born To Do Business and the Founder of The Global Network for Jewish Women Entrepreneurs.
