Caribbean Export Development AgencyHost and Co-Producer
Sep. 2018 - Mar. 2019There are several obstacles that Caribbean women in business face and that’s why we created the WE-Speak series. Join us every week as we share the experiences of phenomenal Caribbean women and other experts on how to maneuver through challenging situations. Giving back is one of the main things that gives me drive in life. Our podcast InvestHuman has helped me and my amazing lady boss partners do this exponentially. So when the opportunity came up for me to work with another, it was definitely a no- brainer. On March 8, 2019 the Caribbean Export Development Agency, UN Women and the European Union have come together to launch the WE-Speak Caribbean Podcast. I’m honored to be the host and co-producer of this podcast geared to helping our Caribbean women in business thrive! .
