Challenging Interventions & The Power of Innovation With Natalie Born

In this Inspirational People interview on the Share Life podcast, I'm speaking with Natalie Born. Natalie is a speaker, podcast host, and founder of Innovation Meets Leadership, a product strategy consulting business. We originally got connected through her husband Aaron, reconnected through Voices to Connect, and have both been involved in different seasons of our lives at Victory World Church.

In this conversation, we dive into Natalie's story, the role of empathy, how women affect the dynamics in the workforce, meeting the needs of customers, finding peace in chaos, and leaving behind a trail of dead bodies.
