Down-to-earth, realistic, humorous...

...is just some of the ways I'd describe Helen and Sarah. Their content is *quality in bite-size achievable sessions* and I've had a chance to apply some of their advice. If you want practical guides that meet you where you are in your career journey, then you have to listen to these wonderful ladies. They clearly put their heart and soul into making others' journies less daunting.
