In this episode I interviewed Audrey Bellis, the founder of Startup DTLA and cofounder at Grid 110.

StartupDTLA is a company fostering the tech community in downtown LA. They connect tech startups to office spaces and curate events for all things tech in LA. 

Grid 110 is similar but aims to not only connect startups to office space but with mentors, resources, key networks, support, community and fundraising. 

In this interview Audrey gets super honest about her story, the struggle she went through in her early 20’s trying to figuring out what she wanted to do, and explains how she pulled herself out of a really hard place. We also talk about what its like to be a woman in the male-dominated tech world, having an awesome girl squad that calls you out on your BS, and discovering your self worth and really owning it! Audrey is about as real as it gets, enjoy!!
