Inspirational Women Podcast Playlist
Yesterday I attended a wonderful women’s event on behalf of the Enthuse Foundation hosted by Merrill Lynch, with the guest speaker, Patti Russo.
Patti is the executive director of the Women’s Campaign School at Yale, and spoke about “Magnifying your Magnificence- simple ways in which women can incorporate daily self-care into their lives in order experience more vibrancy and meaning.”
Today I was inspired by the energy from the event, and put together a short podcast/media “playlist” of some of badass women doing badass work, across tech, non-profit, venture capital, and social work.
Enjoy!

PODCASTS
How I Built This
Almost all of the episodes are amazing, but for women in particular, I'd recommend listening to some of the female founded businesses- here's a couple of my favorites
Masters of Scale
Reid Hoffman, the founder of LinkedIn is the host. A couple of the interviews are with powerhouse women- here's my favorite- she’s brilliant and an inspiration
Startup
I love the first season of this podcast- it's a podcast about starting Gimlet, a podcasting company (very meta).... but as the seasons go on, they follow different companies and different people
- Here's one on two young female founders of the company Dating Ring
- Here's one on Arlan Hamilton- one of the few female, minority, and gay investors in Silicon Valley
