Women are the glue that holds society together.
Family members, neighbors, teachers, mentors... all have helped shape the strong, independent women we see today. That doesn't mean that life hasn't come with its own set of struggles, pitfalls, and setbacks. In fact, that's what makes us stronger!

In an effort to share in that solidarity, we created the Women STARS, where we interview powerhouse women about their struggles, triumphs, and reflections on life and career. Join us for interviews full of inspiration, encouragement, and precious moments of "that's just what I need to hear"
