"It brought out the confidence in everything I do"

Sometimes you don't realize how big someone's network really is until it opens a door you never expected.

Cornysha got to see firsthand what real access looks like — networking with people who've built real relationships over real years, which led her to meet real-life activists. Not something you just read about — someone right in front of her, sharing their story.

That's the whole point of Up Next: The Premiere. Real Stories. Real Access. Real Futures. This is what happens when the right people open the right doors for the next generation.
