"We are all diamonds in the rough, we just need a little polishing." - Kimberly Grant
Kathy Jackson, founder of Future Leading Women, sought out Kimberly Grant from Reimagining Your Power to contribute to the career development aspect of her organization’s mission. Kimberly was invited to help young girls see career paths that align with their passions, particularly at their first Annual Girls Empowerment & STEAM Conference. This collaboration was rooted in the shared goal of empowering young girls to become transformative leaders through holistic wellness and STEAM activities. With Kimberly’s expertise, the event aimed to inspire girls to confidently pursue their dreams while gaining transferable skills to use throughout their lives.
Future Leading Women’s vision is to empower girls from grades 5-12, preparing them for future leadership roles by focusing on confidence and career development. The partnership with Reimagining Your Power was a natural fit, contributing to the success of the event and the girls’ personal growth.
