Ladies in Tech & Friends™ Volume V – The Power of the Pivot
Women Who Changed Direction, Reclaimed Their Purpose, and Created Success on Their Own Terms
Some pivots are chosen. Others arrive without warning.
Maybe you were laid off, your position was eliminated, your contract unexpectedly ended, or you had to leave an unhealthy environment. Maybe you chose to change careers, enter a new industry, start a business, accept a new leadership role, or follow a purpose you could no longer ignore.
And maybe your pivot became one of the best things that ever happened to you.
Your pivot may be the story another woman needs to hear.
About Volume V
Ladies in Tech & Friends™ Volume V: The Power of the Pivot will feature women in technology and other male-dominated fields who changed direction and created success on their own terms.
We are looking for honest stories about:
- What happened when the plan changed
- The challenges and decisions that followed
- The steps you took to move forward
- What you learned about yourself
- How the pivot changed your career, leadership, or purpose
You do not have to be a professional writer. You need a meaningful story, a willingness to share it, and a commitment to completing the process.

Rise & Lead
90-Day Leadership Mentorship Experience
You’re already leading. But you don’t feel like the leader you know you are.
You second-guess decisions, replay conversations, and carry more than you should—because you don’t fully trust your voice, your authority, or your team.
And deep down… You know you’re capable of more.
Not more work. More clarity. More confidence. More authority in how you lead.
