“My passion for launching TEDxBelltown Women stems from my own experiences in extreme outdoor adventures, sharing my stories, and the profound lessons learned from them. These adventures taught me resilience, leadership, and the power of voice. In combining this with the remarkable potential I've seen in the women of Seattle and the region, I realized the need for more platforms where these unheard voices can be elevated and celebrated. I've navigated industries where amplified voices were important and I want to ensure woman's voices don’t go unheard. This event is about creating opportunities, fostering mentorship, and building a community where every idea counts." — continues, Galloway.
