    Love the range of quick bingeable ep and longer more in depth interviews! Authentic, inspiring, insightful, actionable, checks all the boxes!! Def recommend Tracy Matthew’s ep and Clare woods!! Melissa has such a powerhouse lineup of guests ready to share their knowledge that you can’t go wrong with any ep! I’m not a Product founder myself, but as a PR coach for product founders; many in fashion, I am always looking for resources to recommend them!
