The Girl Boss Myth with Olivia Ferney
Is the ‘Girl Boss’ era setting us up for failure?
On this episode of She Wears the Pants, Ashley is joined by Olivia Ferney, a marketing powerhouse who built and exited a wildly successful social media agency—only to realize that the hustle culture she once embraced wasn’t all it was cracked up to be.
Tune in to hear Ashley & Olivia break down:
- The truth about the Girl Boss myth—and why it’s unrealistic
- How failure actually makes success easier over time
- The game-changing power of delegation (and why you’re probably doing too much)
- Why being a CEO isn’t for everyone (and that’s okay!)
- The real key to scaling a business without burning out
If you've ever felt the pressure to “have it all” by 30, or if you're questioning whether the boss life is really for you, this episode will be a breath of fresh air.
