About This Podcast

Welcome to Female Founder Unplugged, the podcast for ambitious female entrepreneurs who are scaling businesses, leading teams, and navigating the highs and lows of entrepreneurship—all while trying to keep their sanity intact.

Hosted by Lindsay White, a people & culture strategist, leadership coach, speaker and best-selling author, this show dives deep into the unfiltered realities of growing and leading a successful business. We’re talking about the messy middle—hiring struggles, leadership challenges, burnout, and the moments no one posts about on Instagram.


Each episode features honest, no-BS conversations with powerhouse female founders who share their wins, their failures, and the hard-earned lessons they’ve learned along the way. If you’ve ever wondered how to scale without losing yourself in the process, how to build a high-performing team without the hiring headaches, or how to stay connected to your vision when the pressure is on—this is the show for you.


So, if you’re ready to unplug from the noise, the self-doubt, and the unrealistic highlight reels, hit subscribe and let’s get real about what it actually takes to grow and lead with confidence.


🎧 New episodes go live every Thursday! Subscribe now and let’s get unplugged.
