About this Event:

Women’s Voices of DFW Series

 

Sponsored by The Fort Worth Weekly, we have curated a 4-night series with a wide range of women to share their experience, strength, and inspiration growing up as a woman in the field they succeed in, while being a part of the DFW community. These nights are also a great opportunity for you to get to know the person behind their voice and what has helped propel them to the platform they have today.    Our special guest moderator, Adaire Byerly, will be leading the conversations and will also be sharing her own experience within her field.  Adaire Byerly is the founder of Entertainment Mindframe, a brain and mental health-based company that focuses on enhancing professionalism in creative lead industries.
