Her expertise in diversity, equity, and inclusion, combined with her ability to customize content to align with the unique needs of our organization, made her sessions both impactful and highly relevant.

Thank you for the invite to the conversation with Jen from Cheekbone Beauty on The Empower Hour for ChangeMakers Event/Podcast. It was one of the best entrepreneurial interviews (with some sensational wisdom) I have seen in years. I am a big fan of Jen, her products, and her work for both the environment and the First Nations communities. Knowing that great women like you and Jen lead the way for many others gives me great optimism for the future. Cheers! Natalie
