West Coast Women Rising features the stories, strategies, and journeys of up-and-coming powerhouse women entrepreneurs who are building businesses while continuing to build themselves.

Hosted by JJ Flizanes, the show spotlights women centered on and around the West Coast who are creating meaningful businesses, pursuing bigger visions, and recognizing that sustainable success requires more than a great business plan.

Through candid conversations about entrepreneurship, business growth, leadership, mindset, relationships, health, personal growth, and the lessons learned along the way, West Coast Women Rising explores both the professional and personal sides of becoming a successful entrepreneur.

You'll hear from women at different stages of the journey—what they're creating, what they've overcome, what they've learned, and the tools and self-development practices helping them grow into the women capable of leading what they're building.

If you're a woman entrepreneur looking for inspiration, practical insight, meaningful conversations, and examples of what's possible, West Coast Women Rising is a place to discover women worth knowing—and ideas worth taking with you.
