“I sat there and I'm like, how do I, how do I manage this? Because it's like, I'm raising a generation of two men. This is not what he needs to see. This is what women do. And that was so, and it was just powerful for me to take it in. Again, things don't happen to us, they happen for us.”
On this episode of Startups in Stilettos, we sit down with Sharon Ringier, founder of The Possible Woman Collective and publisher of Possible Woman Magazine. Sharon shares her powerful journey of resilience, navigating a decade of unexplained hospitalizations, a life-changing health diagnosis, and the challenges of raising two sons while building her vision.
What began as a women’s empowerment conference grew into a thriving collective and magazine that champions women entrepreneurs, providing them with clarity, confidence, and a safe space to grow together. Sharon opens up about the mentors who shaped her path, the lessons she’s learned about leading with heart, and the importance of creating community over competition.
