How to overcome founder loneliness with Emmie Faust, Founder & CEO of Female Founders Rise

In the latest episode of How To Start Up, Juliet is joined by Emmie Faust, serial entrepreneur, investor in over 30 women-founded businesses and the founder of Female Founders Rise, the 11,000-strong UK community supporting female entrepreneurs.

Emmie built Female Founders Rise not from a place of ambition, but necessity. After a post-COVID breakdown, she created the peer network she wished had existed for her. Now, on her 11th business as a deliberate solo founder, she believes peer networks can matter more than funding.

This episode also marks the first time Emmie has shared the findings of her newly published RISE Report, the largest independent study of female entrepreneurship in the UK, on a podcast.
