FROM KNOW TO WPO: TWO WEEKS WITH WOMEN BUSINESS LEADERS

Two whirlwind weeks filled with inspiration, connection, and a whole lot of learning from 200+ successful female founders and executives averaging over a million dollars in revenue annually is not something I am BOASTING about. As someone who's been with KNOW Women—a global media company dedicated to amplifying the voices of ambitious women—and attended five summits, each event continues to fill my cup in ways I can't fully describe. But I will try my best in this blog!

First, the Annual KNOW Summit! This Spring 2025 it was help at the gorgeous resort in Fountain Hills- ADERO. If you're curious about last year's experience, you can read my 2024 recap here: KNOW Summit 2024 Success. At KNOW Women, I have the privilege of producing podcasts, crafting content, and fostering connections that highlight and celebrate female leaders. At the KNOW Women Summit 2025 I wore alot of hats as well. I was BOUNCER BRITT - directing traffic for workshops and roundtables, setting the stage for the panels and fireside chats, and prepping the seats for the next gifts and finally honoring the 100 Women to KNOW in America! Early mornings late nights and avoiding a commute back to midtown with a stay at the team AirBnB! It was another huge SUCCESS!

After a quick rest it was off to San Antonio Texas for the WPO Entrepreneurial Excellence Forum. KNOW served as the media partner for the Women Presidents Organization (WPO) for the third consecutive year. It was my second time attending, and let me tell you, one of my highlights was interviewing two of the honorees from the 50 Fastest Growing Women-Owned/Led Companies, an annual ranking sponsored by JPMorgan Chase Commercial Banking and WPO. One of these incredible women runs the largest supplier of English muffins for McDonald's Egg McMuffins! Their stories of grit, innovation, and perseverance left me in awe. I cannot wait for these episodes to air soon! Beyond the interviews, we captured founder stories and “mini mic moments” with attendees. These candid conversations reminded me that every successful woman is just like us- Stars - They're Just Like Us! Speaking of Stars like us… Misty Copeland. She was our incredible Key Note and so incredible relatable. From building a business, getting back in dance, being an incredible partner and mom and so much more. Sharing having grace for yourself is key.

There was one moment that stuck out in particular: A successful multi million dollar business women asked me: “So, are you getting the entrepreneurial bug?” I laughed and said I already caught it. But what occurred to me in that moment I need to LIVE it! I've been immersed in the world of entrepreneurship—I ran a business for 10+ years that put me in rooms to meet my husband (and business partner) and other women who would champion my name when I’m not in a room. Producing podcasts, sharing stories, and connecting with incredible women through KNOW Women is not just about talking the talk; it's about walking the walk, embracing the challenges, and celebrating the victories. Everyday! So, here's me, shouting from the mountain tops: I PRODUCE PODCASTS! I'm building my future today, one episode, one story, one connection at a time. Are you ready to do the same?

KNOW SUMMIT 2024 SUCCESS

Have you ever wondered what it's like to be in a room filled with AMBITIOUS female entrepreneurs, leaders, and C Suite executives? This is KNOW! And Moving to Master Summit 2024 was the place. The Palomar Hotel in Phoenix, Arizona, was buzzing with energy as women from all over gathered for three days of inspiration, empowerment, and connection.

From fire side chats with Rachel Roff and Jill Osur to a keynote speech from Jen Welter, first female NFL coach this event bas back to back! In between were panel discussion and hands-on workshops, there was no shortage of valuable insights and knowledge to soak up at the KNOW Summit. I was excited to put some faces to names, meet some phenomenal women and, of course, see the the Summit week of style!

I am honored to work with the visionary, Sarah Benken Foushee who dreams up the whole vision. Then, amazing power players come together to execute it. Huge shout out to Dreams to Reality from Tampa, FL for their amazing builds. I love having our resident DJ, Sarah Selfish to play summit from the walk out music during programming to the Tropical Disco Dance Vibes + its after party! +++ My task force of volunteers and HQ, we could NOT run with out you!

My favorite takeaway from Jen Welter was her stating if you share your dream with someone, listen to how they react! If they encourage and ask more, those are your people. Sitting here I cannot pin point one moment I loved most. I think it was the genuine conversations, connections and compliments from those cheering me on while I cheer them on.

Whether you're a seasoned entrepreneur or just starting out on your journey, the KNOW is the place to be. Learn more about Know here: https://theknowwomen.com/

I KNOW WOMEN - WHAT DO I DO ?

As someone who is passionate about empowering women and helping them achieve their goals, I was thrilled to join The Know Women in 2022. (You can read about my switch out of Healthcare here.) We are not just a good time, but a group of women who are dedicated to helping each other grow both personally and professionally while having a good time.

When Sarah came on the Podcast in 2017 she announced starting a community of women to Know and do business with. Welcome to Know Women, the ultimate events, publications, and experiences curated exclusively for ambitious high-achieving women. Five years and over 50 publications later the goal is One Million Women to Know!

As a Membership Success Manager, my role is to ensure that our members are engaged and leveling up to their highest self. I work closely with each member to understand their goals and help them connect with other members who can help them achieve those goals. Whether it's through our online community or our in-person events, we provide a variety of opportunities for our members to connect and collaborate with each other; my favorite being our annual Summit.

Our summit brings together some of the most successful and inspiring women from various industries and backgrounds. Through our interactive workshops, keynote speeches, and panel discussions, you will learn from their experiences, gain valuable insights, and connect with like-minded women. We do this monthly too in our FOCU$ED series with carefully selected our speakers and topics to provide you with practical strategies, tools, and resources that you can apply to your business, career and life! Its more than taking elevator selfies with Candace Nelson, its lasting relationships from real friends.

One of the most rewarding parts of my job is seeing the positive impact that our organization has on our members. I have seen firsthand how our members have grown their businesses, expanded their networks, and gained confidence through their involvement with The Know Women. Selfishly, I have had the opportunity to develop new skills, such as event planning and community management, and have been given the freedom to take on new challenges and initiatives in design. Importantly, Know Women is supporting the Finding Arizona Podcast and Found House Production services for The High Achieving Female Podcast with more opportunities to come.

You know you want to get in the room! Join us at our next event, shoot me an email.
