Back when I was 17, I moved to Vancouver. I didn't have a cell phone. All I had to help me get around was a book map. I would get such a sense of accomplishment when I would drive somewhere, especially when I would get there by memory, without looking at my book map. My questions to you is, what is it that's on your business to-do list that you're a little nervous about because you've never done i...

One of the most important parts of being a Fempreneur is growing a community of women. Without that community of people who look up to you, who look to you for knowledge, who like you and trust you and want to work with you, or have worked with you in the past and refer new people to you - without all of that, you don't have a business. You don't have an income. I understand how difficult it is to...

That's when she decided to dedicate h...
