Females Doing Cool Sh*t
Welcome to "Females Doing Cool Shit," the podcast where we talk all the behind the scenes of running businesses, our chaotic lives & celebrate women who dare to dream big and take bold steps. A podcast where we fuck the fear off and do it anyway. The voices behind FDCS is Ren, the boss bitch CEO with multiple businesses, and T, her chaotic sidekick within her journeys (who also manages her brain).
This podcast provides space for women to explore stories of resilience, creativity, and triumph in hope to inspire and encourage all women to embrace their inner strength and courage. Amongst that, we have a space for you to laugh & cry, the perfect storm of inspiring guests, and good old chaotic chatting between ourselves with life lessons.
Get ready to be empowered, motivated, and uplifted as we dive into our own stories as well as the journeys of remarkable women who prove that being brave enough to just try can lead to all the good shit.
Tune in and join the movement of fearless females making a difference here at Females Doing Cool Shit.
