Presented by Take the Lead
Join the co-founders and co-creators of Take the Lead Retreat—Alison Mariella Désir, Martha Garcia, and Jessica Murphy—for a conversation on what it takes to build and sustain authentic community within the running and outdoor industries.
Together, they’ll explore how meaningful, equitable relationships can be a catalyst for both personal and professional growth. With deep experience spanning advocacy, strategy, brand leadership, and entrepreneurship, they bring a multidimensional perspective to community-building and leadership.
The panelists will share lessons learned from creating spaces that center belonging and offer reflections from past Take the Lead events, highlighting how the retreat has helped women in the industry feel seen, supported, and empowered to lead.
