WOMEN WHO LEAD | Feature No. 11

Meet Dr. Andrena Phillips — Transformational Speaker, Life Strategist, Coach Trainer, and Founder & CEO of KeepMovinWithAndrena and The Whole Woman Experience™.

Her journey to this work was lived, not planned.

Through personal loss and major life transitions, Dr. Andrena discovered a deeper calling to help others transform adversity into purpose.

After 21 years in nursing, she stepped beyond the bedside to help people strengthen their mindset, embrace their purpose, and create the life and legacy they were meant to live.

Her leadership is rooted in one powerful belief:

People don't need to be rescued. They need to recognize the strength they already possess.

And her message says it all:

Own your greatness. It's your birthright.

Her advice to women starting their journey?

Start before you feel ready.

Your voice matters. Your story matters. Your gifts matter.

This is what Women Who Lead is all about—celebrating women who lead with purpose, serve with heart, and use their stories to create meaningful impact.

Women Who Lead is the signature portrait and storytelling series by The Brand Photography Studio™, born in Charlotte, North Carolina, celebrating the women who are leading with purpose, serving with heart, and making a lasting impact in their communities. Every woman has a story. Every story has the power to inspire. If you'd like to nominate a woman for a future feature, I'd love to hear her story.

Not all branding photographers are the same — and choosing the right one changes everything about how your business is perceived. Here's what to actually look for before you book. Save this for when you're ready. 📌

🎙️ I had the honor of sitting down with Sarah Stokes on the — and I'm so grateful she created a space for a conversation that went so much deeper than photography. We talked about the real stuff.

Why women hold themselves back. Imposter syndrome. The fear of being seen. And why confidence almost never comes first — it comes after you show up.

Thank you, Sarah, for asking the questions that matter and for the work you're doing to amplify women's voices. 🙏

We got into it all:
✨ The hidden reasons women play small in business
✨ Confidence vs. courage — and which one actually comes first
✨ How personal branding photography changes the way you show up
✨ Hiding behind your brand vs. fully stepping into it
✨ My journey from Cuba to building a business in Charlotte
✨ Women Who Lead Charlotte & celebrating women who go first

If you're an entrepreneur, leader, coach, realtor, or creative standing at the edge of your next chapter — this one's for you.

A great personal branding shoot doesn't start when the camera comes out — it starts days before.

Here are 5 things I always walk my clients through before we shoot, so every image works as hard as you do. Which one surprises you most? 👇

I'm beyond excited and honored to share that I'll be a Legendary Collective Author in Unveiling Legends™: The Power of Becoming, and part of The Whole Woman Experience™ 2026 this September 18–19! ✨

Power. Purpose. Prosperity. That's not just this conference's theme — it's the exact journey my own chapter is about.

I said yes to this the moment Dr. Andrena Phillips invited me, because I know what it costs a woman to stay small, and I know what's on the other side of choosing courage over comfort. This experience was built for women who are ready to stop surviving and start becoming — and if that's you, I promise, you'll find yourself in these pages, and in that room.

My chapter starts in a moment I never expected to write about publicly: a mirror, a woman I didn't recognize, and a decision that changed everything after. Here's a piece of it —

"Autopilot doesn't announce itself. It doesn't ask permission. It just quietly replaces you, one small, neglected thing at a time, until one day you look up and don't recognize who's left."

Your past doesn't get the final say. Your becoming starts here — and I would love nothing more than to stand in that room with you this September.

Registration is open now at a discounted rate. Come rise with us.

WOMEN WHO LEAD | Feature No. 9 ✨

Meet Brittany Scantland-Lall —Founder of Estate Plan Van .

Sometimes, the best ideas come from the plans that didn't go as expected.

After becoming a mother, Brittany felt called to help families protect what matters most through estate planning. As she prepared to launch her own law practice, the world changed. The pandemic forced her to rethink everything.

Instead of giving up on her vision, she embraced a new one.

Meeting clients on patios, back decks, and driveways showed her that legal services could be more personal, accessible, and convenient. That experience inspired the creation of Estate Plan Van—a mobile estate planning practice that brings professional guidance directly to families.

Her mission is simple:
To make estate planning approachable, convenient, and maybe even a little fun.

As a leader, she believes success comes from serving others with humility, courage, and the willingness to adapt when life takes an unexpected turn.

One piece of advice she hopes every woman remembers:

"Just take the next step."

You don't have to have the entire journey figured out. Trust yourself, take the next right step, and allow the path to unfold.

This is what Women Who Lead is all about—celebrating women who turn challenges into opportunities, lead with purpose, and create innovative solutions that make a lasting impact.

✨ Stay tuned as we continue sharing the stories of incredible women who are shaping our community through leadership, service, and vision.

WOMEN WHO LEAD | Feature No. 8 ✨

Meet Amy Dougherty —Perimenopause Coach, advocate, and passionate champion for women navigating one of life's most misunderstood seasons.

Amy's mission was born from personal experience.

When she began experiencing perimenopause, she felt confused, isolated, and unsure of what was happening to her. Once she found answers, she made a promise to herself:

No woman should have to go through this journey alone.

Today, Amy is helping women understand their bodies, find their voice, and embrace midlife with confidence instead of fear.

Her message is simple, yet powerful:

Midlife isn't about surviving—it's about thriving.

As a leader, Amy believes in standing up for herself and for others, leading with courage, listening with compassion, and creating space for women to feel seen, heard, and supported.

One piece of advice she hopes every woman remembers:

Keep going.

The moments when you feel like giving up are often the moments you're closest to your breakthrough. Stay connected to your purpose, trust the process, and remember why you started.

This is what Women Who Lead is all about—celebrating women who are using their experiences to create hope, inspire change, and empower others to live fuller, more confident lives.

✨ Stay tuned as we continue sharing the stories of extraordinary women making a difference in our community.
