Diane: Thanks for having me, Spiffy! As the CEO of an AI-powered personalization company, I'm navigating a field predominantly led by men. Yet, I'm determined to break stereotypes and pave the way for gender equality. Many still believe certain jobs or industries are solely for specific stereotypes. Still, I'm living proof that women (no matter the age) can excel in coding, leadership, and innovation just as well as anyone. I strive to ensure that everyone, regardless of sexual orientation, race, or creed, has equal opportunities. This means dismantling barriers that perpetuate the notion of gender-specific roles. As a female CEO in the tech world, I'm challenging these norms and proving that success knows no gender. Breinify is championing an important cause of gender equality.
Kavita: Thanks for having me, Spiffy! Sakhi for South Asian Women exists to represent the South Asian diaspora in a survivor-centered movement for gender justice. We honor the collective and inherent power of all survivors of violence. Sakhi is committed to serving survivors through a combination of efforts including, but not limited to, direct services, advocacy and organizing, technical assistance, and community outreach.
Brittany: Thanks for having me, Spiffy! We want to make sure girls in Southern Spain have a safe and welcoming place to play on the football field. This is important because not only is football fun, but it also helps kids to create healthy habits, make friends, and learn skills that are important for their future careers—whether they want to be professional footballers, engineers, teachers, or doctors! For many years in Spain, girls weren't allowed to play football, so they missed opportunities to play and learn. Luckily, over the past several years, that has been changing thanks to organizations like FutboLISTAS and brave female professional footballers who have shared their stories. At FutboLISTAS, we teach girls English and life skills through football and mentorship.
