FYLí
This past Fall, I am interning with Fyli as a video editor. Fyli is an entirely female run company that focuses on "creating an ecosystem of support for leaders. Through master classes, accountability pairing, networking, and resource sharing we are leveling up the playing field to prepare you to SUCCEED." I am so glad to have pursued this internship with their wonderful team! Enjoy some of the projects I had worked on for them on!

#Youbelong Fylí recap
Fyli mastermind brought together a group of community activists, next gen impact experts, creatives, and entrepreneurs for an event titled #YouBelong to celebrate diversity & inclusion in the Hamptons.
Along with partners Nova Impact and James Lane Post, approximately 200 attendees were given the opportunity to share their unique perspectives and to form new friendships and partnerships, while breaking the stereotype of a traditional high-profile Hamptons event by transitioning to a new world of distribution and diversity.

Resilience to Rise with Lt. Gov. Kathy Hochul and Lilly Ledbetter
Resilience to Rise with Lt. Gov. Kathy Hochul and Lilly Ledbetter
Join the Fyli Community in conversation with Fair Pay Icon Lilly Ledbetter and Lieutenant Governor of NY Kathy Hochul.
MEET OUR GUESTS
LIEUTENANT GOVERNOR KATHY HOCHUL: Lieutenant Governor Kathy Hochul began her career in public service on her local Town Board before serving as Erie County Clerk, and then as a member of Congress for New York’s 26th Congressional District. Since 2015, she has served as the highest-ranking female elected official in New York State government. Lieutenant Governor Hochul has successfully spearheaded numerous initiatives and leads the administration’s economic development and job creation efforts across the state, working every day to advocate for policies that help all New Yorkers make ends meet.
LILLY LEDBETTER: Lilly Ledbetter was born in a house with no running water or electricity in the small town of Possum Trot, Alabama. She knew that she was destined for something more, and in 1979, with two young children at home and over the initial objections of her husband Charles, Lilly applied for her dream job at the Goodyear tire factory. Even though the only women she’d seen there were secretaries in the front offices where she’d submitted her application, she got the job—one of the first women hired at the management level. Though she faced daily gender prejudice and sexual harassment, Lilly pressed onward, believing that eventually things would change. Until, nineteen years after her first day at Goodyear, Lilly received an anonymous note revealing that she was making thousands less per year than the men in her position. Devastated, she filed a sex discrimination case against Goodyear, which she won—and then heartbreakingly lost on appeal. Over the next eight years, her case made it all the way to the Supreme Court, where she lost again: the court ruled that she should have filed suit within 180 days of her first unequal paycheck--despite the fact that she had no way of knowing that she was being paid unfairly all those years. In a dramatic moment, Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg read her dissent from the bench, urging Lilly to fight back. And fight Lilly did, becoming the namesake of Barack Obama's first official piece of legislation as president. Today, she is a tireless advocate for change, traveling the country to urge women and minorities to claim their civil rights.

2021 Recap
We’re ending 2021 graciously with gratitude 🧡.
As we look over the year, we are truly grateful to have hosted so many amazing virtual and in-person events for our community, and we couldn’t have done it without you! Our Fylí tribe, mastermind members, guest speakers, event partners, sponsors, and investors have played a monumental role in making our 2021 a phenomenal year.
We’ve equipped our founders with knowledge, key strategies for advancing their business, and a network of community (advisors, investors, thought leaders, and fellow entrepreneurs). We have prevented burnout for several members, and offered support and assistance in times of life crisis. We have proudly supported 17 non-profits through our active listening series, hosted over 100 FREE masterclass sessions, and we have tremendously grown our vision and community.
Watching our Tribe and mastermind members grow their businesses, overcome their fears, step out on faith, break barriers, strengthen their confidence, challenge themselves, meet their goals, and create strong bonds with each other was truly a gift and we’re excited to continue growing our community in 2022!
