Own Your Story, Step Into Your Power
Stories have the transformative power to allow us to see the world in a different way than we would if we just encountered it on our own. Stories are an entry point to understanding a different experience of the world. Presenting a different perspective of the world – is important when it comes to connecting with each other. It gives us an opportunity to learn from another person’s experience, and it can shape, strengthen, or challenge our opinions and values. When a story catches our attention and engages us, we are more likely to absorb the message and meaning within it than if the same message were presented simply in facts and figures. When someone tells their own personal story, we catch a glimpse of a view of the world that may be slightly or radically different from our own. When we see the world as they see it or walk in their shoes, the experience can inspire empathy.

We hope to publish the first edition in May, 2024 – just in time for the next #EmpoweredWomen event in June in San Diego. As you know, we amplify the voices of women in many ways — this is yet another. Stories have a transformative power to allow us to see the world differently and connect with each other through empathy. That is true both for spoken and written words. We all know the magic of the #EmpoweredWomen live events. Think about the impact we can have by amplifying women’s voices as published authors and sharing stories with an even broader audience! We are a community that supports each other and works together to market the book. Freeman Means Business covers publishing costs, directly, through sponsorship, and from book sales.

““There is no community like a community of women, inspiring each other to push forward and creating a sense of belonging and connection. By sharing our authentic stories we give others space to be vulnerable as well. What a way to create a powerful connection by saying, ‘I see you. I hear you. I’m with you.’””
“To invest in others is to invest in oneself and that is exactly what attendees, speakers, sponsors and the conference organizers did at #EmpoweredWomen2019. We committed to ourselves and each other in a way that has never been done at a conference in which I’ve participated. Everyone benefited. I’m looking forward to #EmpoweredWomen2020 with the same energy as we continue to listen to, learn from, advise, mentor, sponsor, refer or hire one another. ”
“There are countless events and conferences that vie for attention, but making an investment in the EmpoweredWomen2019 conference was one of the best I had made in recent years. The caliber of female speakers was unparalleled and the tangible takeaways we all received have been put into practice daily. The conference was more than simply listening and learning - it was a day filled will learning how to support one another more constructively and committing ourselves to the betterment of the women around us. ”
“The entire EWE experience was a joy! Susan Freeman truly lives her mission of empowering women to empower women. Each speaker spoke with such candor and passion, it created a tangible sense of camaraderie throughout the room. I was on a high for days. ”
