What a great night of ideas.
The ever fun, sassy, successful entrepreneur and business professor Kathy Korman Frey – founder of The Hot Mommas Project – created a chance for a few business owners to speak with her Women in Business Leadership class at George Washington University here in DC…including myself!
Ragingly successful business owner Kassie Rempel of Simply Soles and I formed a mini-panel with Kathy’s class last night; all led to a fantastic conversation with app. 25 students (all from other countries – visiting and studying in the US for the first time).
- overcoming obstacles and disappointment in biz
- deciding on a business offering
- speaking in public
- owning business decisions
- exercising confidence
- pursuing parallel business paths
…and so much more was talked about. Thanks Kathy, Kassie, and the students (aren’t we all students in the end?!) for a dynamic and substantive conversation.
Introductions begin…
