In this episode, the guest is Nell Merlino, an influential leader primarily focused on empowering women and girls. Nell is recognized for her significant efforts in making women and girls more visible, valued, and heard.

As a CEO, she realized she could make a difference not only in her life but also in the lives of others. This realization led her to help thousands of women become CEOs in their own right.
Empowering Women: As the founder of "Count Me In for Women’s Economic Independence," Nell has been able to rally global companies such as American Express, Walmart, and Cartier, along with experts like Hillary Clinton, Corey Booker, and Suze Orman to help women business owners across the country gain access to billion-dollar financing, grants, contracts, and customers.
Business Service: Nell offers coaching services to empower women globally, offering guidance on how women can present themselves visually.
Secret Sauce: Her approach to successful leadership involves collaboration with other CEOs in both small and large groups.
CEO Hack: Nell advocates for physical exercise and setting priorities to maintain energy and focus.
CEO Nugget: Nell emphasizes the importance of trusting our gut instincts and seeking advice from other CEOs when in doubt.
CEO Defined: For Nell, the "E" in CEO stands for "Excitement." Being a CEO brings liberation, the pleasure, and excitement to do more of what you aspire to.
