Why many women intentionally choose micro-business models and why that is not a failure with Karen Dennett

About this episode

Karen Dennett discusses the importance of micro-business models for women and challenges traditional notions of success in business.

Karen Dennett is an educator and business mentor who helps women build successful micro-businesses that fit within real lives, not outside of them. With 18 years of experience in education and learning design, she supports women to move forward with clarity, momentum and community, without relying on hustle culture, hype or burnout. Her work focuses on helping women - often mothers or caregivers running service-based or solo businesses - create sustainable, meaningful businesses that align with their capacity, values and way of life. Karen is a strong advocate for redefining success, challenging traditional business models, and reminding women that what feels like failure is often simply a mismatch between life and the way business has been taught.
