Imposture Syndrome
Do you ever hesitate to vocalize your opinion for fear there are more qualified people in the room? Do you worry about your qualifications to move forward and launch your business? Join us for a conversation about these challenges and how we can move beyond that narrative and increase our opportunities to be successful and pursue our dreams and passions.

 
Meet Julie Brock!
Executive Director, Cradle 2 Career

Julie is a passionate advocate for education and workforce development in our region, leading the Cradle to Career initiative as the Executive Director. She spent sixteen years in K-12 education as a high school English teacher and after earning a Master’s in Human Development, shifted into the workforce development field.
In her words: "I believe Olmsted County will grow and prosper by ensuring all residents, current and future, see their work as valuable and aligned with their individual strengths, passions, and skill sets. This starts with equitable access to the valuable resources we have at the ready in our community."
We agree!
We can't wait to hear what she has to share on our upcoming WE Forum panel on the 21st! If you've never heard Julie talk, you are in for a treat! She is high energy and full of enthusiasm for helping others!

Meet Peggy Paul!
Owner, SheTaxi


Peggy is an inspiring and passionate leader with a unique background of working for nonprofit and for-profit entities, as well as starting and owning her own business. Through her career, she’s raised millions of dollars for charities and inspired thousands to volunteer and give back to their communities. Peggy has received numerous local and national awards for her work in the corporate and nonprofit sectors. Most recently she managed the high-performing Southern MN team for the American Cancer Society.
 
Peggy is currently dedicating her time to SheTaxi - an online, personal development community she founded for women. She is also a mentor for SCORE, a new partner for WE Forum this year.
Join Peggy Paul as she shares her journey through Imposter Syndrome. Imposter Syndrome has a tendency to plague women and cause feelings of self-doubt, feeling like a fraud and diminishing one's abilities and achievements.



What is the WE Forum?
The Women Entrepreneurs (WE) Forum was launched in 2019 to provide free educational programming for women who are running a business, as well as those who are seeking to start a business. The idea started as a partnership between Saint Mary's University and the Rochester Area Economic Development Inc. (RAEDI). In 2020, the Rochester Area Chamber of Commerce joined as a partner, and in 2021, the Collider Foundation and SCORE have also joined the partnership. This partnership is indicative of the desire and commitment of all these organizations to support new business start ups and ensure they have the right training and networks to succeed.

What Happens at our Events?
Each month we hear from speakers who have deep experience in the topic to be discussed. There is lots of room for questions from the attendees to ensure the discussion is relevant, informed by experience, and addresses the real questions women have when running a business.

Why Join Us?
These events have proven to be valuable networking and learning events for women business owners. It is a chance to hear from those who have faced the same challenges and hear how they navigated those challenges to become successful entrepreneurs. Join other Rochester area women who are passionate about their ideas and their business. You may find your next client or business partner!
