Title: The Power of Presence | Color, Style, & the Confidence to Own the Room

Join three style and color experts for a lively panel conversation exploring how what you wear can transform the way you feel and how you show up. You will leave with fresh ideas, new perspectives, and the inspiration to show up in your own way, with confidence.

3 Takeaways: 

• Color communicates before you say a word — learn how to make it work for you.
• Style is a tool, not a standard — dressing with intention is about feeling like yourself.
• When you feel aligned in how you show up, your presence shifts and the room feels it too.

The Lioness in a Changing Jungle:

What Global Shifts Mean for Women Business Owners in Texas

Global power is shifting. Markets are realigning. The workforce is evolving. And the question for every business owner is the same: are you leading with that reality in mind?

Join Vidya Moorthy, President of Austin Business Woman, for a grounded, global look at the forces reshaping today's business landscape. In this keynote, Vidya will walk through the top five global shifts happening right now, the current state of women-owned businesses in Texas, and what these forces mean for the women leading and growing companies in this state.

If you're serious about leading well through a changing era, this is a conversation worth your time.

3 Takeaways:

• A clear-eyed view of the major shifts reshaping today's business landscape — from markets and workforce to consumer behavior and global dynamics
• What these shifts mean specifically for women business owners leading and growing companies in Texas
• The mindset and action shifts that help women business owners adapt, stay competitive, and grow with confidence

We’d love to have you join us for an energizing NAWBO SA event where women business owners come together to learn, connect, and grow. Whether it’s your first time attending or you’re a long-time member, you’ll find a welcoming space, real conversations, and practical insights you can take back to your business. And yes—your registration includes a delicious meal!

What to Expect at All NAWBO Events

Speaker: Aquila Mendez-Valdez, 2025 NAWBO National Business Owners of the Year | Award Winning PR Professional

Title: Build Your DIY PR Playbook! Come for the Brunch. Leave with your PR Game Plan. 

You don’t need a PR agency—or a huge marketing budget—to start getting noticed.

As a business owner, you already have the expertise, experiences, opinions, and stories that can position you as the go-to expert in your industry. The challenge is knowing how to turn what you know into opportunities to be seen, heard, and remembered.

Key Takeaways: 

1. Your PR-Worthy Story

Learn how to identify the experiences, expertise, opinions, and insights in your business that can become compelling stories for media, audiences, and potential clients.

2. A Visibility Strategy You Can Actually DIY

Discover practical ways to turn your expertise into content, media opportunities, speaking opportunities, and other visibility-building moments—without needing a full-time PR team.

3. Your Next-Step PR Playbook

Leave with a simple framework for what to say, where to show up, and how to consistently build your reputation as the expert people know and trust.

Come Prepared to Build!

Bring your laptop with you. This will be a hands-on session, so you can work through the exercises, capture ideas, and start building your own DIY PR Playbook during the workshop.

Pro tip: Bring your LinkedIn profile, website bio, or one topic you want to be known for. You’ll have the opportunity to put what you learn into action.
