Our year of education with the tory burch foundation

06.30.23:

This week we embarked on an a year long journey as a Fellow with the Tory Burch Foundation. The foundation empowers women entrepreneurs through education, access, community, capital and so much more. Each year a select 50 women are chosen - from many thousands of applicants - to participate in the program, as fellows, and then to graduate into the esteemed community as alumni. We are in a bubble of excitement and disbelief and are absolutely honored to be among this field of fabulous women. 

1. Total gratitude! Thank you Lindsay Rogers for planting the seed of opportunity and inspiration, sharing all the sweet nuggets and always being such an example of absolute badassery for us. Thank you Lea Tucker for being a professional force and cheerleader as we advanced through the application and interview process. Thank you Ashley Wick for igniting the inner gorilla and teaching us how to embody our confidence and put our most empowered foot forward. Thank you to Tory Burch herself, for working her tail off in order to provide this transformational platform to so many. And to the entire TBF team for being so encouraging, approachable, and most of all for choosing us!

2. We are already in awe of the access. The TBF hosts the largest free entrepreneurial platform in the world- empowering women to empower themselves. There are endless assets on their site, available to ALL for business education and growth. They are trailblazing for inclusion and diversity. The educational assets provided are top notch (did we mention FREE!?) and we can not wait to learn and share more of what we experience throughout this year.

3. The community! We spent the last week connecting with previous alumni and rising 2023 fellows and could not wipe the smiles of excitement from our cheeks. Thank you Cassie at Wild Rye for an insiders peek and top notch tips on how to get the most from this year. To Sabrina at Seed Box Systems for planting such a strong “seed" of inspiration to pursue our B Corp certification - we are going for it! The TB Team is incredible - the fellowship field is diverse and motivated and we are so proud, humbled and excited to be on this wild ride with the 2023 Fellows and the TB Foundation Team!
