Women's Code and Coffee

Happy International Women's Day! Honored to know, work alongside, and see from afar all the resilient and industrious women making strides to create more inclusive workspaces and teams in so many industries, including tech. I could list all the influential women in my career (and life) but I would probably reach the maximum character limit 😏
Cheers to you all as we work together in the forward momentum of women in technology, sciences, business, education, arts, and beyond.

Celebrating women jump starting businesses and turning ideas into full fledged apps gives me LIFE. Have you heard of Fuel Fairies yet? Because if you haven't, join our next Women's Code and Coffee virtual event to meet the innovator that turned an inconvenience into a brilliant service, Nakita Daniels.

Nakita is a Floridian, UF alumnus, West Palm Beach local who's journey to build Fuel Fairies is an inspirational one to say the least.

A whole lot of feels were had tonight! We talked through ways to silence the invisible critic in our head and ways (even if only temporary) and to “relinquish control of societal standards” ⚡️ and become our best selves. Thank you for blessing us with the hard truths, empowering us to be self aware, empathetic, forgiving but keeping ourselves accountable, to pick ourselves up and move on with our goals. ✨ Cheers to the new year and may you overcome the toughest challenges you face within the best of your ability ✨

Yes, it’s our last get together of the year, but an opportunity to reflect, share some feel good stories, and get tips on how to overcome imposter syndrome, and try to be the badass your pet (or teddy bear) thinks you are in 2021.
