Get Ready, in this inaugural episode of Bossy, co-hosts Tara Reed and Katie Gatti Tassin share their entrepreneurial journeys. Tara, the CEO of Apps Without Code, traces her path from tech giants like Google to founding her multi-million-dollar ed tech, Apps Without Code, after being laid off. Meanwhile, Katie, known as Money with Katie, reveals how a job rejection at NerdWallet led to her successful blog, driven by a determination to prove herself.

Katie and Tara break down the work styles behind their million dollar companies and how much they differ as CEO’s. Katie's quest for balance contrasts with Tara's unconventional schedule of just two workdays per week. Between Tara’s natural flow approach to her work and Katie's worthiness being tied to her work, we all can find ourselves truly being visible in one or both of these CEO’s.
