episode Could the SAVE Act Create Voting Barriers? Election Integrity vs Access cover

Description

For women business owners, the ability to vote is a business imperative. In this episode of NAWBO On the Go, we’re joined by Thresette Briggs, NAWBO National Advocacy Chair, for a clear breakdown of the SAVE Act (Safeguard American Voter Act) and why NAWBO is paying close attention to its potential impact on women, especially women business owners who have experienced name changes due to marriage, divorce, or other life events. Thresette explains: * What the SAVE Act is and what it would require for federal voter registration and voting * Why NAWBO supports election integrity and free, fair elections while raising concerns about added documentation burdens * What forms of proof could be required (and why common IDs like standard driver’s licenses may not qualify in many states) * The potential unintended consequences, including time, complexity, and access issues for eligible voters * Why fewer voices at the polls can shape the policies that directly affect women-owned businesses To read NAWBO and WIPP’s joint statement on the SAVE Act: https://nawbo.org/blog/womens-business-groups-thank-leader-thune-for-removing-save-america-act-from-pending-business [https://nawbo.org/blog/womens-business-groups-thank-leader-thune-for-removing-save-america-act-from-pending-business] Learn more about NAWBO: https://www.nawbo.org [https://www.nawbo.org] Learn more about NAWBO Advocacy: https://nawbo.org/advocacy [https://nawbo.org/advocacy]

But it was a chance encounter with breathwork that changed everything. After a deeply transformative experience, Rhonda found herself asking: What exactly just happened? That question launched a deep exploration into the nervous system. Today, as co-founder and lead facilitator of Waypoint Wellness HQ, Rhonda helps leaders and organizations better understand how their bodies respond to pressure, burnout and overwhelm. In this episode, she shares why nervous system health matters and two simple practices you can start using today to create more calm, clarity and resilience.

A member of NAWBO South Florida and a champion for women’s empowerment, Adrianna blends music, leadership development and emotional transformation to help women step into their power, purpose and prosperity. Her signature LOUD philosophy—Loving, Open, Unapologetic and Deserving—was born from years of working with women who shared a common struggle: feeling disconnected from their worth and potential.

After jumping into another role that wasn’t the perfect fit, Amy decided to build a business of her own rooted in helping organizations communicate with clarity, confidence and purpose. In this episode, Amy shares the challenges of learning how to price her services and the fulfillment of working with values-aligned clients as well as doing pro bono work with young people. She also talks about the communications coaching framework she uses with clients and the common challenges they face when trying to connect with their audiences.

What Story Is This Data Telling?

For Monica Roca-Quesada, numbers aren’t something to fear. They’re pieces of a bigger picture waiting to come together. A Florida-based fractional CFO and financial operations strategist, Monica helps growth-focused entrepreneurs turn financial chaos into clarity by understanding the story behind the data. Surprisingly, one of her favorite ways to unwind is building Legos, and she sees a lot of similarities between constructing a Lego masterpiece and building a business: there’s a vision for what’s possible, but the real magic happens through the process, problem-solving and lessons learned. In this episode, Monica shares how women business owners can remove the fear around finances, start interpreting what their numbers are really saying and even discover that financial strategy can be empowering and fun.
