On this episode, Alexandra interviews Theresa Avila, an independent podcast producer and content strategist working out of Los Angeles. Theresa spent years working as a writer and editor at various digital media companies prior to rediscovering her passion for audio and podcasts while working at Girlboss. She led the successful reboot of Girlboss Radio with Sophia Amoruso as well as the launch of original branded podcasts and audio projects with Fortune 500 companies.
