How to Encourage Girls and Women to Start-Up

I’m a woman entrepreneur and co-founder of a multi-million dollar start-up that first began as a side hobby in my living room. I’m also a mother of three, including two young girls. Professionally and personally, I’m always thinking about empowering and uplifting girls and women – whether it be my kids, my employees, my customers, my friends or my society. With that in mind, I’d like to share a few tips for my fellow entrepreneurs, business leaders and moms out there. Together, we can do more to raise girls up to meet their true potential, and possibly generate more female entrepreneurship in the process.
