I've always wanted to start a podcast. After a health scare that forced me to pause take a hard look at my life and rethink what actually matters. I don’t have all the answers but I do believe in the power of reflection and honest conversations. This podcast will be centered around moments of inspiration, impactful connections, and a focus on being better. Each episode will consist of something that caught my attention recently, an interview or impactful topic, and engagement with listeners (call and text in). No gurus. No perfection. Just honest stories lessons learned the hard way and reminders to enjoy the ride while we’re on it.

We start with her early days as a Sales Associate and how those foundational experiences shaped the way she approaches leadership today. Elena was actually the one who referred me into that role, which changed the trajectory of my career and is a real reminder that your network matters more than you think. From there, Elena walks through her journey across companies like Microsoft, Oracle, Meta, and now VP of International Business at Elea Data Centers & Co-Founder of Women’s Tech Forum. A big theme throughout this conversation is growth through discomfort. Elena shares how stepping into the unknown, taking on new challenges before feeling ready, and surrounding yourself with the right people can accelerate everything. We also spend time on the role of mentorship and community. From the people who helped guide her early on to her work co-founding the Women in Tech Forum, it’s clear that success isn’t built alone. If you’re early in your career, navigating a transition, or thinking about what’s next, this episode offers a real look at how to grow with intention. Like. Comment.
