On this episode of The Real Female Entrepreneurs, we sit down with Emily Carlson, CEO and founder of PBA Consulting and host of the Powered by Authenticity podcast. After 30+ years in tech leadership — and a sudden corporate layoff — Emily turned her setback into a bold entrepreneurial move, leading multi-million-dollar healthcare IT transformations with empathy, clarity, and authenticity.
In this conversation, Emily shares: ✨ How a career pivot led her to launch her own business. ✨ Why authentic, heart-led leadership outperforms cold corporate culture. ✨ The challenges (and freedoms) of being a woman in tech and entrepreneurship. ✨ Practical advice for female entrepreneurs navigating growth, pivots, and resilience.
This episode is a must-listen for women in business, leaders seeking impact, and entrepreneurs ready to turn challenges into opportunities.
