Broad Summit Recap

Like I mentioned last week, I was part of the team that worked very hard to put together an event for a small group of people.

One of the ideas behind it was that there weren’t enough events for smart women to get together and feel cared for.
Women can be quite good at good at caring for each other.
This isn’t often celebrated.

We are so often only set up as consumers.
We are set up to take each other down.
We are set up to compete, judge and gossip.

Conferences had become this blinky fritz of overwhelm, pushy sponsors and handshakes.
