How it started...

One day in April 2020, Liz called Katarina and said she had an idea, which then developed into the live streamed teams show called \"WE Connect\". An interactive, curious and personal talk show, with guests who shared their experiences and views on how to handle uncertainty, motivation, leadership and much more.
Now, they're both running their own businesses and want to continue the dialogue, always curious to learn more on how to inspire organizations and people to thrive. WE hope you would like to join us!
