Introduction to Episode

In this week's episode, I interviewed Lauren Van Rooyen, mom of 2, and leader of an online community of more than 20,000. 

Lauren is from South Africa. When her husband got a job opportunity to work in Kenya, she decided to help her African women's community with an online group called MomBoss. In her group, women share business ideas, support, encourage, and connect on this platform. 

Join me to learn how she makes a difference every day in other women's lives while being a present, a mother, and a wife.
