GIRLS WHO START 3/18/25 MEETING
(photo above)
Christina Stavrakas, CCC-SLP and owner of The Learning Gallery (MHS 2009) was a dynamic and interesting speaker for our GWS attendees! Some members who were unable to make it, stopped by WB's classroom the next day to express how sorry they were to have missed it, having heard how good it was. In her thank-you to Ms. Stavrakas, Co-President Evelyn Buckley captured much of the spirit of our afternoon together when she wrote, "We greatly appreciate your willingness to share the obstacles you endured on your pathway to success and how you continue to work and improve. You are an inspiration to many women, including the members of Girls Who Start. All of us truly appreciate the dedication and passion you have for helping families. The lessons you taught us in the short time given will continue to impact our lives, such as setting healthy boundaries, taking control of your career, and growing your business in a way that works best for you" and your employees. "Thank you again for taking the time to help teach young women what it means to be a leader."
