About This Podcast
On Female Fridays, we go beyond the résumé to reveal the real stories of women leading with courage, complexity, and heart.
Hosted by Rachel Keller — a journalist at heart and a Vice President by trade — this podcast features unfiltered conversations with extraordinary women in healthcare, senior living, entrepreneurship, and beyond.
These are the stories behind the titles: breaking glass ceilings, navigating imposter syndrome, redefining power, and building legacy on their own terms.
If you're craving deeper, more human stories of leadership — the doubt, the pivots, the quiet wins — you’re in the right place.
Because true leadership was never just a title.
Tune in each Friday for real talk, emotional insight, and the truth behind what it really takes to lead.
