Politics' very own Kryssi Conly (@laughsnsmiles) and Radio personality & multimedia journalist Jazzi Black (@jazziblack) lead the night featuring panelists Channing Beumer (@callherchanlo): founder of CNKDaily, Abbi Schuler (@abbischuler): Director of Field Marketing at Yuengling, KAYWHIT (@kaywht): Memphis recording artist, and Sarah Carlock (@amor.y.queso): founder of Amor Y Queso.
The panel began at 7 PM on Wednesday, 3/29, at our Dallas Store Location. RSVP was required and this event filled up quickly. Big thank you to Nike for providing exclusive journals to all women in attendance. We enjoyed hearing the encouraging journeys of the panelist's and had a great time sharing our space with the beautiful women of our community.
