Happy Friday, everyone!

Welcome back to the "Women in Entrepreneurship" newsletter. 

I'm Lorel, a new curator with Startup Digest. It is absolutely thrilling to be part of a community of strong and ambitious women in business. In an effort to get to know you better and create a quality newsletter for you each week, I have created a Google Form (link here). Let me know who you are, what you do, what you want to learn, anything. 

Email me if you have thoughts on the articles I have shared! I would love to hear.

Good luck with the week!
