Shawna Rodrigues

Shawna Rodrigues helps purpose-driven solopreneurs connect to their ideal clients through podcasting. At the base, she is a Podcast Strategist who stumbled into podcasting by her love of talking and her desire to make an impact. Her top-rated podcast, The Grit Show, is where it began and creates a community around purpose, alignment, and growth. After learning the abysmal fact that women host less than 1/3 of podcasts, she founded the Authentic Connections Network where she and her team help guide women through the journey (while handling production) of launching their podcasts. In this work, she realized she wanted to go further upstream and support solopreneurs to build solid businesses and her latest podcast, Authenticity Amplified, and the Solopreneur Sisterhood community came into being. She is a purpose-driven solopreneur who knows this road and the many hats it takes to build a successful business. Her growth mindset, decades of building communities, and supporting others, paired with her gifts of expert guests and constant need for creative marketing strategy set her up well for these opportunities.
