I arrived at the Girl Hub offices on a clear Tuesday morning and began to get myself situated in the bright yellow room where I would spend the next few days working with the newly selected Girl Hub Brand Representatives on personal presentation. I could tell immediately why these women had been selected to be representatives at conferences and events both domestically and internationally. Sarah has a calm and collected presence, Benigne is lively and outgoing, and Pascaline is refreshingly direct. All three of them exude intelligence.

Resonate’s first workshop in Rwanda was with the Akilah Institute for Women. I had the pleasure of spending a week in their Leadership class exploring the influential power of narrative and working with the 54 students of the class of 2013 on developing their own Story of Self.
