Are you a current ladyboss, have always wanted to start your own side hustle/business, or just enjoy meeting and collaborating with a community of like-minded womxn? Join us for a special, productive ladyboss morning where we'll tackle your workout of the day, your mental wellness, and collaborate and brainstorm with other ladybosses, all in 2.5 hours!
Led by Stephanie Erazo of Travel Slay Fitness from Los Angeles, you'll work your glutes, legs, and endurance with a fun, 40-minute twerkout workout followed by a calming, 20-minute guided meditation with your mantra of the day. Then, we'll flow into a collaborative, open conversation about how you can "Persu your dreams" led by both Stephanie Erazo and Stephanie Su of Persu Collection. No twerk experience required, Stephanie will teach you a few twerk moves paired with the workout. :)
By complete chance, both Stephanies met through a mutual mentor as graduates of the downtown fashion tech accelerator GRID110, and discovered the similarity of their history - both solo female entrepreneurs who left their corporate job at CNN to "Persu their dreams." With one Stephanie focused on building a service-based business and wellness, and the other Stephanie focused on building a product-based business and crowdfunding, we'll share our journey on how we built our businesses as well as host an open conversation to answer any questions or comments one-on-one due to the small group format of this event.

ABOUT STEPHANIE SU:
In 2013, founder and designer of Persu Collection, Stephanie Su, was hauling her fitness gear from work to her boxing and dance classes, when she realized the need for a functional yet chic athletic bag – one that could hold all her fitness accessories, work essentials, and fit in at the office. Struggling to find a bag that could fit all her active life needs, and influenced by her experience working for luxury fashion house Louis Vuitton, Stephanie decided to design her own ultimate athletic bag - one that had the sleek looks of a weekender, but the durability and functionality of a gear-heavy fitness equipment bag. In 2015, Stephanie launched her innovative bags, called Persu Collection, on Kickstarter and raised over $90,000 in just 43 days. The following year, Stephanie was selected along with 4 other companies to participate in the Downtown Los Angeles fashion tech accelerator GRID110 in partnership with Mayor Garcetti. Since then, Stephanie’s highly functional and sleek bags have been featured in Forbes, SELF, Brit + Co, and Marie Claire. Today, Stephanie continues to run Persu Collection as a solo female founder, using her skills learned from years of experience in marketing, operations, and sales in companies including CNN, Cartoon Network / [adult swim], and Louis Vuitton, in addition to extensive self-training through General Assembly workshops and online courses. Throughout all the hustle and daily grind of her entrepreneurship journey, Stephanie continues to set aside nuggets of time to recharge and stay active through her love of boxing, pole dance, and constantly trying new experiences in all the cities she travels to!
