Author/Entrepreneur Vanessa Ferlaino Seeks To Elevate Women's Voices Through Words and Action

WASHINGTON, DC, USA, February 2, 2022 /EINPresswire.com/ -- Overcoming a lifetime of obstacles to achieve success is what continues to keep Author/Entrepreneur/Actor/Musician/Artist Vanessa Ferlaino continually striving for more and empowering women and the underrepresented.

In her acclaimed autobiographical book, HUMAN, she recounts her story of growing up the child of immigrant parents in a foreign country and struggling to elevate herself above her life challenges to achieve success. With recent stories of female empowerment and equality highlighted in articles published by the United Nations and The New York Times, Ms. Ferlaino's work, words, and powerful message are a vital voice in the continuing fight for equality.

She has taken her gifts of success in business and the arts and parlayed them into philanthropy, inspired to help launch the Athlete Women Empowered program.

Working with Athlete Tech Group, the organization takes special attention when developing their education programs to support BIPOC women athletes between the ages of 15-18. Program participants will have the opportunity to work in group sessions and 1x1 with more than 30 mentors. This ranges from business professionals, Olympians, and sports executives in top businesses including Seattle Storm, LuluLemon, New York Knicks, Nike, Deloitte, Adidas, Sacramento Kings, EY, Canadian Tire, and Sick Kids Hospital.

AWE, which will be exclusively run on the Training Ground app for those who enroll, has also been featured in Yahoo. A global expansion is in the works.

“We understand the importance of female-centered programming and we take much pride in our inclusive approach in building our modules,” Vanessa says. “We do this in our participant recruitment process; when participants enroll through this link we take good care to ask about their interests, needs, commitment abilities, and experiences.”

She maintains that this is how we give others space for their voices to be heard. If we truly want to see a more connected and inclusive society, it starts with every single one of us.

“Together, we can make a difference.”
