Community

My biggest takeaway from being in the Houston AccelerateHER –
How important it is to have mentors, feedback and fellow women entrepreneur friends to encourage each other, share information and stay focused on our business growth.
The AccelerateHER program helped me expand my vision to think bigger because of the other women in the program.
-Donna Durbin

Connections

The value of connections and mentorship has been a lifetime value add. I'm also grateful for the wealth of knowledge about certifications and corporate contracts. 
- Kalish Nesbitt

Growth

I am blessed by the AccelerateHER - Dallas program through TWU’s Center for Women Entrepreneurs. I benefitted immensely from the business advising, the guest mentors and business leaders, and the members of my cohort. My business exploded from 9 client encounters in January '23 to 367 through November '23. I recommend this program to every woman entrepreneur I meet. Thank you again for choosing Lifestyle Transitions to be a part of the program.
- Michelle Holloway
