Live from Durham, it's In The Soup 🍲!

On today's season finale, hosts Jenn Summe and Melissa Crosby are not only commemorating the end to another fantastically soupy season, but are also celebrating Women's History Month. According to the National Women's History Museum, this year's theme centers around “Moving Forward Together! Women Educating & Inspiring Generations.”

That's why today's guest is the perfect person to celebrate this month and the end of this winter season.

Kristina Montague is the Co-Founder and Managing Partner at The JumpFund, a Chattanooga-based angel fund comprised of over 50 women angel investors focused on early-stage, women-led growth ventures in the Southeast.

She is also the author of Jump In: Women Investing in Women, Growing Our Capital and Impact, which tell of the origin stories of the JumpFund and its powerful network of women investing in women.  

This season would not be possible without the partnership of our gracious sponsor, Milan Public Relations and its founder Mikaya Thurmond. We're excited to collaborate with her on future projects!
