In August, we’re proud to spotlight the incredible strength, innovation, and leadership of women in business. Across industries and communities, women are not only shaping the future of entrepreneurship—they’re transforming the way we lead, connect, and grow.
This issue, “The Power of She: Women Driving Business Forward,” is a celebration of those making bold moves, breaking barriers, and building legacies. You’ll hear from inspiring voices, read about women-led ventures making waves, and gain insights on why supporting women in business isn’t just the right thing to do—it’s essential to sustainable success.
Whether you’re a seasoned professional, a rising entrepreneur, or simply someone who champions equity in the workplace, we hope this month’s content sparks new ideas, uplifts powerful stories, and reminds you of the unstoppable force that is she.
Thank you for reading—and for being part of this movement.

In this feature, Mackenzie shares her perspective on the challenges, triumphs, and unique strengths women bring to the business world. From leading with vision and compassion to breaking barriers in her industry, she offers an authentic look at what it means to create, grow, and lead as a woman entrepreneur.
'Owning a business as a woman has pushed me to lead with clarity, trust my instincts, and stay rooted in what matters. I started Meadow Medical Spa with a mission to offer natural, high-quality results in a space that feels calm, honest, and personal. Our vision is simple: to make people feel more like themselves, not someone else. Being a woman in business means doing hard things with heart. It means building something that reflects your values, even when it would be easier not to. That has been my guide from the beginning, and it still is today.' - Mackenzie Gorman

She obtained her Bachelors of Science in Nursing in 2012, Masters of Science in Nursing Education in 2015 and her Family Nurse Practitioner degree in 2022, all from the University of Oklahoma.

Tip of the Month: Champion Women in Business—Every Voice, Every Role Matters
This month, we’re shining a light on one powerful professional tip: support and elevate women in business. Whether you're leading a team, running your own company, or contributing within an organization, the value women bring to the business world is undeniable. Studies consistently show that diverse leadership leads to stronger innovation, higher profitability, and more inclusive work environments.
So what’s the tip?
Be intentional about how you support, include, and elevate the women around you. This could mean:
1) Making room for women’s ideas at the table—and in the boardroom.
2) Actively mentoring or sponsoring women within your network.
3) Supporting women-owned businesses in your community.
4) Advocating for policies that promote equity and opportunity in the workplace.
Progress happens when small actions become everyday habits. As professionals, we each have the power to help shape a more inclusive and dynamic business landscape—one that works for everyone.
Let’s continue to move the needle forward. One voice, one opportunity, one empowered woman at a time.
