Stories That Inspire: The Faces of CEED's Leveling It Up – Real Voices, Real Change

Over the past two years, Leveling It Up has empowered women entrepreneurs to break barriers and build thriving businesses. As this stage of the program comes to a close, we’re celebrating its impact through the voices of those who lived it.

Through Stories That Inspire, meet the women who turned challenges into opportunities, gained the tools to grow, and built businesses that make a difference. Their journeys are proof that with the right support, confidence, and community, anything is possible.

Join us in honouring their successes and the lasting legacy of Leveling It Up.

CEED’s/LIU program gave me access to experienced presenters with high quality information on the topics that matter to us as early stage founders. There is no substitute for being able to ask a real person questions when you are just starting out building a new business.”

"When I joined this program, I was so scared and anxious about starting a business that I wouldn't even turn on the camera or speak in the meetings. I can't believe what this program did for my confidence. It was fantastic!”
