I only knew one person the first time I attended a TBW Conference and now I feel like I have an entire new family of sisters, supporters and alies in business. I believe in this group so much that I volunteered to help at the next event! The TBW community is so welcoming and supportive. You just need to join us and experience it for yourself!

It's important to share our stories and business journies to empower other women and especially young women to encourge them get started and believe in themselves to keep going. That is the power of being at the TBW Annual State Conference!

We all know that Self-Care is critical, but many don't think of Business Conference as being self-care activity - but the TBW Conference definitely is. This is a way to receive support, nourish your soul, get recharged with your "sisters" all while you are adding new resources to your business tool box. This group knows how to mix Fun - and Fundamentals together!
