we have some incredibly strong, powerful women who have their own
stories of struggles and successes to share. Dima Ghawi specializes

potential through the organization she founded, Breaking Vases.

number of women around the world through her speeches, leadership
trainings, networking events, website, podcasts and a newly
published book by the same name. Shari LeBas is President of GEC, a
