Detroit, MI -- Jenny Liagre serves as a role model for women on many levels: as the co-founder and owner of Rockwood Recovery, a woman-owned business, as an example of resilience and triumphing over challenges, and as a supporter of other women's dreams. In the 2008 downturn, Jenny lost her main source of income, and her car was repossessed. It taught her a lesson about how many people have to sacrifice their vehicles in tough economic times. Jenny has appeared on the radio show before, talking about the recovery business and others she owns/works in with members of her family. This time she has returned as part of our Empowering Women in America series. Jenny has a message for all the women out there: ?Never give up. Find other women who will encourage you and push you forward. Their support means everything! Find your tribe and always surround yourself with people who are smarter than you! We can do anything men can do! This is surely true in the industry she works in; it is a male dominated field and yet her company leads in their metropolitan market. By using technology wisely, having a great rapport with the banking companies, and recovering property with modern equipment that they own, Rockwood Recovery has forged a reputation for excellence. ?In all of the election debates this year, the state of the economy has been a hot topic. When the economy is tight, people have to make tough choices, like do I take care of my mortgage and heating bill and feed my family, or do I pay that car loan? That is one reason the number of repossessions has risen so.? For more information about Jenny and all her business triumphs search her on linkedIn or visit www.rockwoodrecovery.com
