Description

My guest today is Elaine Benfield. Elaine Benfield is a storyteller, strategist, and the founder of Herstories, a podcast and platform that amplifies the voices of women rising through challenge and change. With more than 20 years of experience in marketing, communications, and executive visibility, Elaine has helped leaders and brands find clarity in their message and power in their voice. Her own journey of resilience through personal loss, reinvention, and transformation inspired her to create Herstories as a space for empowerment and collective healing. Today, she speaks and leads conversations that help women turn their most challenging moments into turning points for resilience and pathways to new journeys. In this episode we discuss herstories, storytelling, women in leadership, sisterhood and the voices of women.
