Just… wow. We are STILL basking in the glow from our first ever virtual Women’s Day Conference, where our global community came together for two days of skill-building, tool-sharing, inspiration and celebration of womxn’s empowerment and solidarity that took place on March 8th and 9th. We are so grateful to all of you who tuned in, and to our incredible line-up of speakers who impactfully covered the ins and outs of freelance life, from the just getting started stage on. Every moment was truly dynamic—here are some highlights: 

  • Alex Elle blessed attendees with journal prompts and affirmations that help freelancers find success in each day

  • An open and honest conversation with leaders in the health insurance space led by Rafael Espinal of the Freelancers Union

  • Teresa Huang Day of Planoly broke down what’s really working (and what not to do!) with social media these days

  • Learning how to file for your brand and how to protect your intellectual property got a lot simpler thanks to Nicole Swartz

  • Elle and Arabela of Weekend Creative helped every potential podcaster’s dream come true by covering everything to start and grow a podcast

  • A self-care session for working moms with Jane Romeo 

  • We learned exactly what we should be charging and how to make it happen thanks to Claire Wasserman of Ladies Get Paid

  • Attendees were able to find the next direction to take their business in with the help of Ali Kriegsman Founder of Bulletin, Tiktok stars Alice Farina & Alicia Luncheon, & Imani Ellis Founder, CultureCon

and 

  • Thanks to our conference partner Squarespace, the all-in-one website building platform, our freelancing females were enlightened with actionable steps on how to take their websites and brand strategy to the next level in a “How to Build Your Brand” session with Mindy Nguyen, freelance Art Director, Designer, and Creative Director of ilovecreatives Studio.

  

If you attended and just can’t get enough (it’s ok, we can’t either!), recordings of all sessions are available to you & have been sent to your inbox. And if you missed this one, we’re already brainstorming for the next one — so stay tuned!
