The Queerpreneur Podcast
Welcome to The Queerpreneur Podcast with me, your host, Sarah Taylor. I'm a life and business coach, speaker, corporate trainer, wellbeing advocate and on a mission to celebrate and increase the visibility of queer women leaders, changemakers and trailblazers. This podcast is the place for queer women who want to start or grow their business and their straight allies. It's all about building community, raising awareness and creating a platform to celebrate incredible LGBTQ+ women. In every episode my intention is to share knowledge, learning and resources that inspire you to think big, create more impact and step fully into your life and business in a way that feels authentic to you.
