My Entrepreneurial Journey with Yaritza Báez
My Entrepreneurial Journey is a podcast for women entrepreneurs in their 40s and 50s who are in the early stages of building a business and doing it honestly, one step at a time.
This isn't a show about six-figure months or overnight success. It's about what building a business actually looks like: the slow seasons, the self-doubt, the small wins that don't feel small, and the moments you almost quit but didn't.
Each episode offers real talk, personal stories, and grounded reflection to help you stay the course when momentum feels invisible and remind you that showing up consistently, even imperfectly, is how foundations get built.
If you're one to three years into your business and wondering whether you're doing enough, moving fast enough, or getting it right, you're in the right place.
This podcast is your reminder that you are not behind. You are building
