the mission

What’s the fuel behind Powerful Women Synergized’s mission?

This report was my catalyst for my mission and represents the moment I realized the staggering economic potential women entrepreneurs hold and the injustices that hinder their success.

The July 2023 “Women’s Small Business Ownership and Entrepreneurship Report” shines a light on the immense economic potential women entrepreneurs hold, yet it underscores the barriers they face. The statistic that women’s equal participation as entrepreneurs could increase global GDP by $2.5 to $5 trillion is not only eye-opening but deeply frustrating. This massive potential is untapped due to systemic inequities.

This fires me up because this gap is solvable! Through Powerful Women Synergized, I focus on helping women CEOs and founders close this power gap by streamlining operations, making data-driven decisions, and uncovering hidden revenue streams. The work we do is about ensuring that women in business have the support, resources, and guidance needed to fully participate and thrive in the global economy. We can’t afford to leave trillions on the table.
