We're sharing AHA moments from Ask Her Anything | Sept 19, 2025: Zero to one, how women got their first board roles


Thank you to everyone who joined us for our first Ask Her Anything panel session!

We are especially grateful for our guest speakers, Selena Cuffe, Chief Growth Officer,

Blackstone Consulting, Inc. and Elizabeth Suarez, CEO, Avanza Business Group. As corporate leaders and seasoned board directors, Elizabeth and Selena, along with Light Her Way co-founder, Annette Blum Pearson, shared personal experiences and insights about what brought them to the boardroom and how they acquired the seats that kicked off their ongoing board service.

Edua Lena made sure that everyone in the room walked away with valuable & actionable learnings and we're excited to share a few with the community!
