Podcast with Lauren Bacon and Emira Mears, Authors of The Boss of You
It’s that time again for another one my Comfortable in Your Own Skin Podcasts. April’s installment features Lauren Bacon and Emira Mears, authors of The Boss of You: Everything a Woman Needs to Know to Start, Run, and Maintain Her Own Business and owners of Raised Eyebrow Web Studio.
It was my great pleasure to have a chance to meet and talk with Lauren and Emira. A few months ago I got the chance to read their book and write an article about it. I was really drawn to their approach and advice they offer in the book.
Let’s face it – while there are more business books out there than you can shake a stick at (and where exactly did that cliche come from??) very few are written by women for women. This is the book both Lauren and Emira say they wish they had when they went out on their own in February 2000 to start Raised Eyebrow Web Studio.
These women were really great to talk to and they have a lot of wisdom to offer business owners. So, listen in as they joined me from the Vancouver, BC studio for this recent interview.

Paula: You do such a good job with these podcasts… you should be doing interviews more often! The conversational style really works… we need to get you on OutQ radio!
I hadn’t heard of the authors or their book, but I enjoyed what they had to say about building a sustainable business. And it’s inspiring to hear how they did it at such a young age.
