In this episode of The Female Factor Podcast, I sit down with Leslie Yager, founder of Greenwich Free Press, to talk about her unexpected path into journalism, the power of local news, and what it really takes to build something from the ground up. Leslie shares how getting laid off sparked the creation of GFP, and how she grew it into a trusted community news source through grit, adaptability, and a love for storytelling. We dive into everything from the importance of showing up, the power of being underestimated, and why confidence is something you build—not something you fake. Whether you’re interested in media, entrepreneurship, or just figuring it all out, Leslie’s story, full of wisdom and honesty, is one to listen to.
