We could all use that "older sister" who knows the answer to everything and gives us those tips and tricks to make our lives run smoother. Between Carpools, the lifestyle website for the busy Jewish woman run by five talented women, fills that need beautifully. We sat down and had a DMC with Leah Schapira, known at the ultimate connecter. Like it says on their website, every team needs a mover, shaker, and motivator (and great recipe developer!) like Leah, who keeps the team moving with our eyes focused on the goal, and is always on the lookout for talent.  Leah has authored and co-authored nine (!) cookbooks, and most recently, with the BCP team, helped create Artscroll’s brand new Best of Kosher Cookbook. Leah describes herself as a creative and is always juggling new ideas and projects with her team of very talented frum women whose goal is to make the lives of frum women easier, more enjoyable and more beautiful. On this DMC we discuss:
Tips about when to quit a project and when to keep pushing
The type of content BCP provides frum women and how the team comes up with fresh ideas
Why Leah and her team decided not to include their faces in the branding of BCP (but yes, pictures of women are featured on their website)
Staying focused and how not to let exciting new ideas get in the way of long term goals
Leah’s perspective on the increased focus on aesthetics in the frum world
What inspires Leah in meeting her career goals
