On Wednesday, August 28, Nashville Lifestyles hosted its annual Women in Business event at the beautiful Conrad Nashville.
To start the evening, guests and honorees mixed and mingled while enjoying wine from Arrington Vineyards and bites including coconut shrimp and meat skewers from Conrad Nashville. The seated portion of the event featured live Q-and-A sessions with each honoree, where they discussed a challenge they faced and how they overcame it, advice they would give to their younger selves, and how they define success. Following that portion of the program was an exciting Q-and-A with Tanya Tucker where she talked about her experience in the music industry, advice she would give her younger self, and the details on her tequila brand and her new cantina: Tanya Tucker’s Tequila Cantina located on the second floor of Nudies Honky Tonk.
This year's panel of women represented an array of different industries and featured Leigh Lovett, Brittany Cole, Penny Austermiller, Lori Paranjape, Erin Dugan, Tequila Johnson, Sarah Knuth, Hollie Woodward, Katie Anderson, Mattie Bush, Terry Vo, Jennifer Sheets, Christina Riojas, Sophia Warwick, Emily Dryburgh, Jamie Dryburgh, and Seema Prasad.
A portion of proceeds from the Women in Business event benefited Make a Wish Middle Tennessee.
Women in Business 2024 was sponsored by platinum sponsors including Austermiller Roofing & Construction, Avéli with Image Surgical Arts, Conrad Nashville, David Adams Wealth Partners, The Mall at Green Hills, Porsche of Nashville, and SoundWaves Gaylord Opryland, plus gold sponsors including Amazon and Arrington Vineyards.
