Wednesday Women: Powerful Women at SF WebFest

I had the opportunity this weekend to work at the first ever SF WebFest in San Francisco. I was asked to participate in the Mentor Sessions, Moderate Panels, and Introduce and Host the Q&A for the Festival Centerpiece, Tiffany Shlain. At first it seemed like an ordinary speaking gig but once I spoke with the festival organizer, Laura Wainer - I knew this was going to be something way more than just another typical weekend.


There's something really amazing about women working together.  This wasn't a women's festival but when one woman decides to do something - girlfriends rally. And when powerful women get together - look out world - things will change!

I spent an entire day with these wonderful women. I will share other cool moments at this event but in the meantime - I wanted to share this photo from the first annual SF WebFest 2015 for my Women on Wednesday post. 

Because of this group, I may do an entire week on 'women making a difference'. So if you know of any other in individuals or women organizations I should highlight. Please send them my way...

Wednesday Women of the World: Suzanne Brangham



Wednesday Women of the World: 

Suzanne Brangham



Suzanne was one of the most gracious people we met in Sonoma while shooting our California episode of KRUSING AMERICA. We featured Suzanne Brangham's culinary school, Ramekins and her MacArthur Place Hotel & Spa in episode 4. I adored this town and people so much I went back several times and eventually filmed a special piece just to highlight her extraordinary hotel.   



Suzanne is known as a volunteer extraordinaire, entrepreneur, artist, hotel owner of and developer, whose fingerprints can be found on many – if not most – of the nonprofit and community causes and events in the Sonoma Valley and certainly worthy of our Wednesday Women of the World in this Krusing America Blog.
