Business tips for women entrepreneurs over 40, female founders, and midlife business owners who are done waiting for overnight success and ready to bet on themselves and each other. Betting on We digs into what it really takes to build a profitable business after 40: the business failures nobody posts about, the pivots, the resilience, and the power of women supporting women. If you're a female founder, author, speaker, or creative entrepreneur juggling business growth, visibility, and everything else midlife hands you, this women's business podcast was made for you. Alexa Bigwarfe is the founder of Write | Publish | Sell and Women in Publishing, where she has spent more than a decade amplifying women's voices as an author, publisher, speaker, and event host.
