About the Day

Join Young Women Empowered for this year’s Career Day: He(art) Work, a day of exploring values-driven work, creativity, and reimagining what success can look like. We’ll have real conversations about how your creativity, natural gifts, passions, and values can shape the work you do. We’ll also offer practical skill-building around things like resumes, interviewing, college prep, and selling your art. Come connect with mentors, creatives, and professionals who are finding ways to build meaningful, heart-centered work while making a living.
