The Beginning...As a participant in the Fearless Leadership Institute, during its first year, the life lessons and lasting relationships provided support in academia, professional development and personal growth. They shaped my transition from an undergraduate student into adulthood; more specifically, womanhood.
The founders - Thais and Tiffany - have made a stamp in my heart and my life. Their impact in my life stirred the desire for me to foster those same influential relationships. Empowering and inspiring women of color speaks to my heart and to the purpose of the Fearless Leadership Institute. So immediately after graduating from the University of Texas at Austin I began collaborating with Thais and Tiffany to begin the ground work for The FLI Mentorship Program. - Kiara Truitt-Chambers |
