In honor of Women’s Equality Day on August 26, W Scottsdale is continuing to amplify the voice of women who challenge the status quo with the return of its annual What She Said speaker series. Co-presented with The Modern Day Wife, a global community of women, the latest installment of the female-driven event will take place on Thursday, August 24 featuring an evening of empowering and educational conversations with celebrities, creators, CEOs, designers and founders who are breaking the mold, pushing the limits and inspiring others along the way.
Among the successful panelists, Audrina Patridge, the American television personality, model and actress, will speak at the event and host an intimate VIP pre-party. In addition to the panels, attendees will enjoy a fashion show, beauty tutorial and exclusive pop-up shops with over-the-top photo opportunities to capture the dynamic evening.
What She Said is a W Hotels & Resorts branded series featuring conversations among women that celebrate individuality, inclusivity and honesty, tackling the issues of today from work, love, play and everything in between. The platform offers a safe space to drive progress in the gender equality movement and cultivate community with open conversations that inspire, educate and enlighten.
