Hey, everyone, you're listening to Superwomen.

Today's guest is the CEO and founder of Vanierre, Jennifer Vanierre.

Jennifer might not have known much about the fashion and fitness industries,

but that didn't stop her from starting the first boutiques to create stylish athletic

wear across a variety of desirable brands.

Getting told no, every step of the way did nothing to discourage her. And now Bandier's stores can be found in five major cities across the U.S.

Though it wasn't the easy path, Jennifer always liked to do things her way. And the resilience

she cultivated as a result of that is evident in her willingness to take

chances that others often deemed too risky. Through it all, Jennifer has stayed open, curious,

and creative, and continues to support other women along the way. Take a listen. Jennifer,

And then I figured out there was an entire class occurring.

And I was like, this is a brilliant idea.
