Arya Modalo - Owner and CEO, Modalink Services Inc. | 2022 Women of Inspiration™ Immigrant Leader Award

A Woman of Inspiration is one who is brave and vulnerable. Because vulnerability is bravery. Women are so resilient that we literally stand back up and brush off the dust whenever we fall and still stand tall even if we are hurt. That is why women are inspiring.

STEPHANIE COUGHLAN - Owner, SMC Sports Ltd. | 2022 Women of Inspiration™ Influencer Award

To me, a Woman of Inspiration is a woman who has been able to have her life burn to the ground and still rise from her ashes to inspire others. This kind of individual empowers others to ignite their own souls with the desire to love themselves. She is also reminds you that you aren’t broken.
