This week, on the podcast, host Eva Hartling speaks with Vera Milan Gervais, an author, speaker, and award-winning serial entrepreneur who is committed to helping women develop the confidence to show up and succeed in business. Vera Milan Gervais has successfully built a number of businesses throughout her career. She is currently Co-Founder and Executive VP of HealthConnect Inc, a company that manages medical information services, as well as customer care and health education programs on behalf of companies in various industries. But Vera’s latest project, her signature Wordz We Wear program, explores how labels shape who we are and who we can become. Through her mentorship services, Vera helps women let go of limiting beliefs and tap into their full potential. Vera’s experience as an entrepreneur, writer, marketer and strategic consultant has shaped her perspective on success and well-being. Before she turned 18, a birth defect resulted in four major surgeries and left her with a leg length difference, scoliosis and osteoarthritis. Vera is an avid hiker, gardener, traveller, photographer and an accomplished businesswoman. In my exchange with Vera, you’ll hear her insights and words of wisdom — sure to inspire any woman in the workplace, especially entrepreneurs building new ventures from the ground up.
