Why do female entrepreneurs refer to themselves that way, instead of identifying as entrepreneurs?
Carol Roth says she tells female entrepreneurs to call themselves entrepreneurs because the former tends to limit them in their thinking.
What we tell ourselves matters!

You may give yourself permission to dream bigger and have a stretch goal, or even a BHAG (big, hairy, audacious goal).
Can you feel the energy in that?
What are you going to create for yourself and your business?
Here is the entire interview. Enjoy!
