Did you know that 1 in 5 women prefer to work with men over other women? We dove deep into this curious statistic and explored the challenges of women supporting women in spaces where we're still breaking ground.
Our guest Bogi is a committed automotive industry advocate, dealer-trained BMW and ASE master certified technician, and a fierce proponent for inspiring women to pursue opportunities within the automotive and skilled trade industries. Her desire to do more for promoting, empowering and increasing the number of women in the trades, combined with her strong belief in advocacy, inspired her to create Girl Gang Garage.

Bogi is also a prominent speaker and educator, leveraging her 20 years of industry experience, passion, and genuine love for cars. She has consulted and taught thousands across the country, focusing on creating a culture within a business that creates space for diversity, increases the professionalism and respect for the automotive industry and emphasizes that by creating a culture where female employees and customers are valued and respected, everyone wins. Bogi has been teaching basic car care classes and workshops for 20 years, blending her knowledge and passion for empowering women to create a unique teaching style that uses automotive knowledge to empower women in their personal and professional lives. She has been featured in countless news articles and stories, been awarded Phoenix 35 under 35, 40 under 40, Women in Auto Care Female Shop Owner of the Year and many other prestigious awards. Additionally Bogi has been the host of the TV show All Girls Garage on Motortrend TV for 12 years, and is the creator and host of the With Her Two Hands podcast for 3.5 years.
