Thrive Nation Book Club with Bianca Shaw 

Sunday, September 7^th  

2pm – 3:30pm PT / 4pm-5:30pm CT / 5pm-6:30pm

Join us for a meaningful and energizing conversation with Bianca Shaw, a nationally recognized policy and equity leader, author, and founder of Thrive Nation. Bianca’s new ebook about transforming individual lives has powerful lessons for organizations and movements too. You do not have to have read this book to join the event!

At this special Zoom event, Bianca will share how activists and changemakers can discover fresh ways to thrive, build wealth, and strengthen their missions, even in challenging times. She’ll also speak to the importance of caring for ourselves and each other as a community of women committed to justice, peace, and legacy.

Bianca says: “I help women of influence design and execute strategic life blueprints so they can build wealth, live with clarity, and create legacies that last.”

Together, we’ll envision the future of WILPF US as a sisterhood of solidarity and action, drawing on the wisdom of our past and the possibilities ahead.

This will be an uplifting space for reflection, renewal, and connection with like-minded women who understand the importance of leaving a legacy. Come ready to be inspired, affirmed, and to share in a circle of wisdom and joy.
