389 | Vetting Investors as Much as They Vet You with Lauren Howard

Bio: Lauren "L2" Howard is a telehealth program operator, mental health advocate, and women's champion who believes, above all, that isolation lies—it's not just you, and help is available. She is the CEO of LBee Health, a virtual mental health treatment program that supports people recovering from burnout, toxic work environments, and trauma, while also providing full-spectrum mental health care with an emphasis on accessibility and lower-cost options. Lauren is also the CEO of ElleTwo, a digital platform and community boldly calling BS on outdated ideas of "professionalism" for women and inviting them to join #teamdifficult as they redefine what leadership and success can look like. Across her companies and consulting work, L2 uses technology, storytelling, and care to build spaces where people can heal, tell the truth about what they're going through, and do work that feels more human and sustainable.   This episode is sponsored by the coaching company of the host, Paul Zelizer.
