Join us as we spotlight women led businesses who have been affected during these unprecedented times (either positively or negatively). We’ll discuss what business has been like during COVID, how these strong leaders have effectively led out in their community and their outcomes, community initiatives they’ve found helpful, and how to continue to push through change fearlessly.
