Our Favorite Quotes:

“That’s kind of like two big rules of thumb that I have found in my business is to create those clients that are super fans of yours because you show up and you do such good work that, like, they want to promote you to other people because when you succeed, they succeed. And then the other thing is just the idea of being open with people and saying hey, that’s not me. But this is what I can do. ” – Jess Milanes
“My mission is to give women a voice in the podcasting world.” – Jess Milanes
“People are dying to connect right now, everyone is so desperate for connection. Because we have not had that level of connection. We haven’t had that emotional connection for two and a half years.” – Jess Milanes
