Jewish women business owners not only the
chance to network and hear from keynote
speakers, but also receive new professional
headshots, social media coaching and an
action plan for their business success.

CREATING A ‘LAUNCHPAD’
FOR SUCCESS
The first session will focus on elevating your
business and will feature speaker Laurie
Greenberg of Infinite Potential Coaching.
Greenberg, an experienced ICF-accredited
life and leadership coach, will introduce the
program and how to take action in business.
Next, session two will dive into authentic
branding and how to ultimately build a brand.
Featuring speaker Andrea Walker-Leidy,
founder of Walker Publicity, the evening will
cover how to create more than just a logo, and
how to share your story with others.
Session three will feature a roundtable
discussion with business owners Yolanda
Williams, Chelsea Gheesling and Kyle
Smitley, who hail from different back-
grounds and industries. Topics will include
scaling your business, how to say “no” and
effective ways to pivot strategy. Moss will
moderate the panel, which will include a

Q&A session.
Last but not least is session four, which will
include professional headshots for all from
Federation photographer John Hardwick

and a program on how to network with
Federation fundraiser and University of
Michigan instructor Tina Sula.
Overall, the four-part series is designed to
inspire women to build their business from all
angles — not just the financial aspect — and
learn how to ultimately drive success.
“It’s intended to be a launchpad for people
to think about what changes they can make
to grow their business, and to walk away with
ideas for implementation,
” Moss says.
Level UP is also put on by commit-
tee members Michelle Cantor, Suzanne
Fellows, Pam Lippitt and Jodie Krasnick,
as well as Women’s Philanthropy president
Sherrie Singer.
“I wanted to get involved in Level UP as
a future business owner,” Fellows explains.
“I think the information the speakers will
be providing will give me the confidence to
bring my plant-based nutrition and well-
ness coaching to fruition, and to network
with and learn from experienced working
women in our Jewish community.”
