As the founder of The Women Empowerment Series, she inspires and encourages women to disrupt the status quo and use their voice to initiate change. And, when she says use their voice, she literally means women's voices — through communication. Change can be big or small. For Dr. Reigstad, it’s about using her voice to initiate change pertaining to gender equality in the workplace but to someone else, it could be navigating through a tough conversation with a male superior.

Here's what empowered women have to say:

"I'm so glad I was able to take advantage of this opportunity to not only explore my communication style through the lens of gender but also take the time to understand other perspectives in the workplace and how to shift the power. It was humbling and affirming to hear other women's stories of their own experiences in their careers and how I can apply their lessons to my own workplace culture. I highly recommend this series to anyone looking to empower themselves but also empower others; you will walk away with so many invaluable insights."

“Amelia! Thank you for The Women Empowerment Series. Your dedication to and enthusiasm for the topic is inspiring. It was a honor to learn from you and the other participants! "Communicate. Be Empowered. Make a Difference." Yes!”
