#WWB: A CLOSER LOOK

You might also be interested in our #WhatWomenBring: A Closer Look series. Each month, one of our honorees or headliner shares her perspective about how she succeeded despite the odds stacked against women and/or minorities, how you can succeed despite those odds, or something else close to her heart. Each #WWB video interview has been inspirational and thought-provoking. 

While this series was exclusive to #WWB attendees and supporters prior to 2023, we have begun to distribute the series more widely. Beginning in January 2023, it also began airing monthly on OHM 96.3 FM Radio. 

We need YOU
