💚BUILDING TEAMS THAT BEND, NOT BREAK

Women, this conversation is for us.

Strong teams aren’t teams that never face pressure. They’re teams that know how to bend without breaking.

In business and leadership, change is inevitable. Personalities differ. Communication gets difficult. Expectations shift. Pressure rises. And sometimes the greatest challenge isn’t the work—it’s learning how to continue working together when things get hard.

That’s why this conversation at UNSHAKEN: Women Who Mean Business Summit 2026 is so important.

Join us for a day designed to strengthen, connect, and empower women who mean business.

Friday, October 16, 2026
9:30 AM – 4:00 PM
Jewish Community Center (JCC)

Featuring panelists Allyson England Drake, Holly Byrd Miller, Hope Swinter, and Grace Washington.

UNSHAKEN — Your Voice. Your Power. Your Time.
