VOTE HERE!

I have submitted my proposal to be a speaker at SXSW 2026 in Austin, Texas! (eeeek, talk about visibility!

SXSW® is best known for its conference and festivals that celebrate the convergence of tech, film, music, education, and culture. As a long-time participant (10 years and counting — this photo is from the last time I attended)... 

… it was finally time to ‘throw my hat in the ring’ and go for a bucket list wish - to be on a SXSW stage. (eek again!)

The speakers and panellists are chosen by VOTING. 

So I’m asking you for help.

Getting up on the SXSW stage is an idea that, honestly, terrifies me. It’s a bucket list item.

But I am dedicated to sharing the mission of HerBusiness with more women business owners, and this would be an incredible opportunity to do so. 

Your vote would mean so much to me. I appreciate you taking the time to do this for me. 

And… Wish me luck!

With my deepest thanks,
