connect for change Archives

We are so thankful to have been able to team up with Threads Worldwide this year to create the Connect for Change Contest to send three emerging women on a life-changing trip to NYC for Emerging Women Live 2014.

The women chosen by our panel of judges stood out for their authenticity, open-heartedness, vulnerability, generosity and determination to empower themselves and others. Be sure to introduce yourself if you see them in NYC – these women are ready to ignite their gifts, and they have plenty of fire to go around!

She is a shining example of the spirit of Emerging Women, and we are so so pleased to award her with an all-expenses paid trip to #EWlive14.

Don’t let the picture of the needle scare you away – YouTube chose the most intimidating frame of the incredibly inspiring video for the thumbnail. For your daily dose of goosebumps (the good kind), watch Caryn’s winning Connect for Change video here: Continue reading “Watch: Our Beautiful Connect4Change Contest Winners” →

Dear Emerging Women,

I am so excited to announce the Connect for Change Contest this week – an opportunity to win an all expenses paid trip to New York City to attend Emerging Women Live this October!

The power of connection is one of the cornerstones of Emerging Women, and what better way to celebrate that than by partnering with our wonderful sisters at Threads Worldwide, a company dedicated to helping women globally while creating fabulous fashions – great combo!

When we open ourselves up to relationship and intimacy in business, we amplify our opportunities to make huge waves in this world. Our bold ideas and passion for new definitions of success become elevated and inspired when we dare to connect on a deeper level others who, like Malala Yousafzai, yearn to make a difference.
