Why Female Founders Face Bigger Challenges in Business

from The Playbook · host David Meltzer, Entrepreneur.com

In today’s episode, I sit down with Carrie Trabue, a former litigator turned entrepreneur who’s redefining the legal industry. After 25 years helping lawyers navigate their careers, she founded LawSphere, an online community designed to bring lawyers and legal vendors together in meaningful ways. Carrie shares how her desire for long-term relationships over transactional ones inspired her platform’s unique focus on mental health, mentorship, and holistic support for legal professionals. We also talk about the uphill battle female founders face in raising capital, the role of purpose in midlife reinvention, and why building community is the key to a thriving legal career.
