BOSS Talk unites entrepreneurial women through stories about their experiences - the good, the bad and the real. Far too often, we only see the highlight reels of entrepreneurship so during this podcast we dive into those candid conversations that aren’t typically featured on social media platforms - especially those moments that haven’t quite hit the mark as planned. BOSS Talk will both challenge and motivate you to build the life and business you want by battling overwhelm with systems and self-care. If you’re listening and find yourself overwhelmed in your business right now, head over to lavistajones.com and schedule a connection call today.

“Avoid becoming the proverbial squirrel, mindlessly chasing too many things. It's crucial that our pursuits align with both our short-term and long-term goals, ensuring a meaningful connection and purpose." ~ Antoinette Mendez

With a fiery passion for helping young students succeed in postsecondary planning, Antoinette brings a unique energy and expertise to the table. Having spent a decade in the school system as a counselor and intervention specialist, she knows the ins and outs of educational pathways like the back of her hand.

Antoinette underscores the significance of self-care in her life and its correlation to gaining insights into her strengths and leadership styles for both professional success and a satisfying work-life balance, with guidance from La’Vista Jones’ book, The BOSS™ Shift.
