What does it really mean to be a trailblazer? Elle Ballard, founder of Women of the World Network, joins Mary Ann Faremouth on this episode of Career Can Do to share how women from across the globe are coming together to support, uplift, and grow - together.
Elle is hosting a special event on October 18th in Houston called Trailblazer Woman, designed to celebrate women who pursue their passions with courage and resilience. She explains how the WOW community has created a space for women to gain visibility, build lasting relationships, and share lessons from their journeys in life and business. “We can grow together faster,” Elle says, “if we have that circle that we can come to, that we can share, that we can just be in.”
Mary Ann shares her own experience with WOW, including how contributing to the group’s collaborative books helped her land new opportunities and expand her reach. From speaking engagements and podcast features to powerful new friendships, WOW has helped her - and many others - step into their full potential.
The upcoming event will feature speakers from diverse backgrounds, dancing, networking, and time for reflection as we begin to look toward the year ahead. Elle encourages women to come ready to connect, learn, and be inspired.
Two things you’ll walk away with? New relationships that can grow into something meaningful—and fresh ideas to carry you into 2025 with clarity and confidence.
