Celebrating International Women's Day with amazing women in SE Louisiana!

In honor of International Women's Day, I invited several women in the community to chat with me about their path to success and what drives them. I was expecting to speak to some incredible women... and I certainly got that! But what I wasn't expecting was the sense of pride I got from talking to each and every one of these amazing ladies. I also wasn't expecting to hear the strength that every one of them gained during the pandemic. These ladies are the cream of the crop and the more we talked, the more empowered I felt. By the time all was said and done, I was standing on top of a proverbial mountain yelling "WOMEN CAN DO ANYTHING!"

My only regret is that I didn't have the opportunity to speak to more women because Southeast Louisiana is FULL of amazing women that can do it all!

Here is every conversation in it's entirety and alphabetically. I hope you enjoy each chat and I hope you walk away with the spectacular sense of empowerment that I felt.

First up is Liz Broekman. Liz serves is with Fidelity Bank and serves as Vice President, Director of P.O.W.E.R. P.O.W.E.R is acronym for "Potential Of Women Entrepreneurs Realized."

Next is Sally Cox. Sally is the Chief of Staff for the Team Gleason Foundation.

Next is Katherine Denman. Katherine is a New Orleans native who left home to go to New York City to climb the corporate ladder and then returned home to Southeast Louisiana and is co-owner of Katie's Restaurant in Mid City.

Next is Michelle Dunnick. Michelle is the Director of Events and Investor Relations with the United Way of Southeast Louisiana.

Next is Tori Kahl. Tori is the Area President for iHeartMedia New Orleans/Baton Rouge (and yes, she is my boss!). I enjoy every second of being on her team. Tori is not only an amazing leader, but she's an amazing lady all around!

Last, but CERTAINLY not least is Jennifer Kelley. Jen serves as the Executive Director of the Louisiana Hospitality Foundation. On a personal note, I have known Jen for about 20 years and it is a true inspiration to see how she has grown into such a strong and well-deserved role. You go girl!
