Introducing "She Built It Celebrates Your Leap!"

If nothing else, I want women to understand that they are powerful. If you look back at history, in almost every big moment, in every leap forward, you find ordinary women at the core. We have more ability to make changes in the world than we can imagine if we have the courage to try. Liya Kebede

The She Built It community believes in supporting and celebrating bold entrepreneurial and career leaps for women. We hope She Built It will inspire you.

My career path has been dedicated to supporting women in business and their overall positive impact on society. I have spent the last few years talking to friends who wanted to make a career or business leap. Some are starting or buying a business. Some are venturing into a career space that they have never done before simply because they are passionate about it. Some are looking to talk through ideas about what to do next. They have an idea within them and are looking for support and inspiration.

After encouraging a few friends to make a leap, I decided to launch She Built It. I have made many leaps throughout my career and understand the questions and challenges that arise with change and growth. Now as an entrepreneur, I have a group of smart, positive, and dynamic women around me to ask their opinion and discuss ideas. I know how important it is to be surrounded by this community of women. I wake up every morning motivated to inspire, encourage and support women to live life at their best, and when it comes to their career, not to be afraid to make a leap. Especially when it is difficult to get out of our comfort zones is often when the magic happens.

We encourage you to make a leap. In honor of February 29th, make this your leap year. We would like to hear about your leaps through She Built It Celebrates You - an online place where we celebrate each other’s success and highlight achievements and challenges that other women have successfully navigated to make bold leaps. Do you know someone that has made a leap that we should celebrate? Please introduce us!

Cheers,

Melanie
