"I started playing baseball at the age of 10. I went through all the ranks, from Little League to 4 years high school baseball on the boy’s varsity team. I also played 4 years of men's collegiate baseball on a full ride scholarship, becoming the first woman to earn a win on a men's collegiate team in both NAIA and NCAA. After college, I played 4 years of men's professional baseball in the Northern League, and became the first woman to win a men's professional baseball game! Since retiring from playing professional baseball, I have coached pitchers of all ages, from children to college athletes — and recently my sports memorabilia has been put on display at the Baseball Hall of Fame. With my professional baseball career behind me, I decided I wanted to help people and chose to pursue a career as a firefighter. I am now a Training Captain/Paramedic for Clackamas Fire District #1 and have been in the fire service for 18 years. I recently wrote my memoir, ""Making My Pitch,” with my co-author, Jean Ardell. Copies are available at www.makingmypitch.com I also started up a non-profit, “Fire Up Bootcamp.” Our vision at Fire Up Bootcamp is to create more equity, inclusion and diversity in the fire service. https://www.fireupbootcamp.com"

"I started Larissa Loden with one simple idea: that you can look good, feel good, and do good all at the same time - without breaking your budget. It started as a middle school art teacher’s side hustle, and has morphed into a dream-come-true small business. I’m a woman, mother, and artist who finds inspiration everywhere. My favorite work comes from simply playing in the studio or with my kids, with no agenda. It’s my form of meditation. Being an entrepreneur is a wild ride. So much so, that my friend and I started a podcast about it. We share stories about the highest highs and lowest lows of running a business and maintaining our mental health in the process."
