Lea Woodford - Personal Branding and Influence. 

Lea Woodford went from columnist and TV personality to create her own multi-media marketing agency. She parlayed her online magazine, SmartFem, into a full service marketing and advertising company with it’s own TV show. SmartFem was created as a result of her many years as a publicist, columnist and as a Radio & TV Personality.

Her passion is in connecting people. In fact Lea is often called “ the connector “ due to her extensive network.
