Each of these women inspired me —>
Women, mothers, working moms, single moms, single working moms – whether you identify yourself in one, two or all of those categories, you were represented in this power lineup of inspirational women.
At the third annual Leading Moms event held on September 26, 2014 in Vancouver, BC, Canada, each of these women took the stage and empowered the audience to move forward boldly – whether in starting a charity or challenging the world-view of a fitness trainer or anything in between.
Here are a few tweets and instagrams from the sessions…
