Our Her-story
Young & Empowered Women (Y&E) was created to connect and empower emerging female leaders from various sectors at the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic, a time when networking and career coaching would need to be redefined.
Since the beginning, Y&E has aimed to directly mentor and bring together diverse women to achieve their personal and professional goals. After the kickoff meeting in July 2020, the members knew this group was something special…
