Have a conversation with Naoma and you’ll leave feeling inspired to disrupt, buck tradition and chart a new course.

Natalie is committed to equipping and healing youth and families in Oklahoma, both in the work she does and within the four walls of her own home.

Mautra tops a lot of lists for her professional achievements. While most days include leading others, handling operational issues, meeting deadlines, consulting on projects and attending board meetings, her favorite part of the day is picking up her kids from school.

One of her main strengths is empathy and it serves Megan well as a Mom of two toddlers. But, surprisingly, it’s also been helpful in building her videography business during a pandemic. She’s passionate about using film to tell stories that last generations.

Thanks to the help of one woman, Mary went from being a troubled high school dropout to owning a top recruiting firm.

When women start down a path and discover they’re good at something, many are complacent to stay there forever. Not Mary. She’s constantly asking the hard questions, pushing the boundaries, pressing through fear & inspiring her peers to do the same.

Although parenting and a high-stress job keep her busy, Marwah’s door is always open because her true passion is hosting and entertaining both friends and strangers.

Faced with barriers she struggled with her entire life, Marissa chose to overcome. With no experience outside of waitressing, she turned an internship into a role as a project manager, then operations manager and now has a five-year plan to be CEO.

While she garners a lot of attention for being a triplet mom, Marek’s also an industry trailblazer committing her talents not just to her business, but to vital community projects as well.

Although she wasn’t exposed to success growing up, Malorie knew she wanted something more than the addiction and abuse she was experiencing. So she changed everything and is on a mission to help others do the same.

In the process of building her own business, Lynnae is building a community of female entrepreneurs who can empower and encourage each other along their personal journeys.

We all know “that person” who is the one who always shows up with a smile and a hot meal on a hard day and that’s Liz. Even between teaching musical theatre and raising a family, she makes time to make others feel at home wherever they are.

Perhaps best known for her ministry work, Lauren jumps at any opportunity to communicate ideas that matter and inspire community action. That sometimes looks like loving her daughter well and other times looks like learning more about public policy impacting women’s reproductive healthcare and human dignity issues.

Many people stop themselves from pursuing a passion because they don’t believe they’re the most talented or qualified. Lauren has pushed through that inner critic and inspires others to do the same.

When LaTasha learned to play “Amazing Grace” on the piano at 7 years old with no instruction, she knew she had a future as a performer. She just didn’t realize she would also be cheering on another generation of men and women to follow their passions, too.

By thinking outside the box and seeking out intentional relationships, Laura has managed to transform the creative landscape in Oklahoma City with a one-of-a-kind art studio and learning space.

Using her own background in competitive dance, La’Teshia uses dance to teach women self- confidence and to stop striving to be “the best” and just be “their best.”

Multi-talented and certainly passionate, Krystal could put her skills to work anywhere. But she moved back to Oklahoma City from DC to pour into her hometown through serving small businesses with PR and marketing and also serving on many boards to make her community a good home for others, too.

Unassuming from the outside, Kristen has transformed many lives in the city through her dedication to love and assist people who come from difficult places.

Having worked with LGBTQ youth possibly longer than anyone else in the state, Kris has had the privilege of being there for the happy moments (like weddings) but also had the burden of dealing with tough issues (like suicide prevention). She’s faced a lot of challenges since she started this work in 2003 and in many ways she may just be getting started.
