In this episode, Isabel Alexander reflects on the misconceptions and judgments that often surround women entrepreneurs, especially those aged 50 and above. She shares her personal experiences of facing skepticism and stereotypes about her life as a business owner. People outside the entrepreneurial journey sometimes see it as glamorous, filled with cocktail parties and luxury, but Isabel knows the reality is far from that.

She delves into the challenges of showing up every day, pretending to be confident and bulletproof, while dealing with the fear and pressure of running a business. Isabel emphasizes the importance of keeping one's word and earning trust, a fundamental aspect of her business journey. 

Isabel also discusses the unique judgment that women business owners face from various perspectives, including family, personal relationships, staff, suppliers, and customers. She highlights the need for creating circles of trust and understanding among women entrepreneurs to break down these stereotypes and offer support.

Join Isabel as she candidly shares her experiences and addresses the expectations, both external and internal, that women business owners often grapple with, especially as they age. Together, they explore the transition and transformation of women entrepreneurs in their 50s, 60s, and 70s, seeking more time, flexibility, financial stability, and, most importantly, more fun in their entrepreneurial journey.
