LANSING, MI, UNITED STATES, May 7, 2025 /EINPresswire.com/ -- Have you been inspired to start your own business? What goals do you hope to achieve as an entrepreneur or a leader?

According to 2024 Statistics from the Small Business Administration's (SBA) Office of Advocacy, women own more than 12 million small businesses across the country, employing over 10.7 million workers and contributing nearly 2 trillion in total sales annually to the economy.

To encourage women business leaders and future owners in Greater Lansing and around Michigan, Foster Swift has launched the monthly storytelling podcast: Businesswomen Talking. Each episode features a special guest, a local businesswomen leader or owner sharing their personal experiences such as how they got started, difficulties they have faced along the way and other insight.

Hosted by business attorneys, Amanda Dernovshek and Lindsey Mead, this podcast will also address a number of legal topics that can pose hinderances for business owners such as succession planning, IP protection and entity selection/organization.

All episodes are available on Foster Swift’s YouTube page as well as the following landing page: fosterswift.com/f-businesswomen-talking-podcast-episodes-resources.html along with other resources. More episodes will be released in the coming months.

Podcast hosts Amanda and Lindsey host a quarterly in-person coffee talk to allow attendees to share insights and stories along with legal strategies that are important to a thriving business. Here are the details for the next session:

• When: Wednesday, June 4 from 8:30-9:30 AM
