I learned from Aly
…how to stop apologizing – like most women do – and position ourselves as the experts we are, and to think big; if it doesn’t exist, create it. I have seen Aly build her business from a handful of local clients to a nationwide presence. As her mentee since 2007, it is Aly’s influence that got me over my closet-full of excuses to start my own business.”

Empowered women not only uplift communities,
As a friend, mentor, and confidant, Aly has been a source of wisdom and guidance that has allowed me to push past self-adopted limitations and propel both my personal and professional life to new levels. I am guilty of getting caught up in the perpetual cycle of ‘getting ready to get ready,’ whether it’s launching new ideas or dealing with situations and circumstances in running a small business. Aly’s gift of tuning into ‘what is not being said’ and asking thought-provoking questions has created momentum in my life in a way that have given me growth and new potential. Thank you, Aly, for empowering me!”
