Risky Conversations with Jamie Lee

As an executive coach for women working in male-dominated industries, I often coach on the topics of money, wealth, and self-trust.  In this episode of Risky Conversations, I sit down with Andrea Liebross—results-driven business coach, podcast host, and author of “She Thinks Big.”  Andrea shares her journey from corporate director to entrepreneur, and together we unpack what it really means to take risks, think big, and create wealth on your own terms.  If you’re an ambitious woman ready to break out of your box, this conversation is for you!
