Women Empowered is a program of 1628 created in December of 2019 by Tamara Schwarting and myself. The membership-exclusive site is an incubator for female entrepreneurs and hub of resources from training to socializing. While I was familiar with Brilliant Directories, a bootstrap version of wordpress that enables users to create large robust directories, I was not prepared for how much fun engaging in the online facebook community would be. I recommend this style project for anyone on a budget and time crunch – easy to use and well supported!
