Ignite Insights Webinar - From Hesitation to Power: How Women Rewrite Their Stories While Helping Others Rise
6/18/2026
12:00 PM - 1:00 PM EST


Location: Virtual





Event Description

Most women don’t struggle because they lack talent... they struggle because they try to do it alone.

In this powerful and perspective-shifting session, Fearless Sisters founder Sharan Hildebrand introduces a new way to think about networking not as something you do for yourself, but as a leadership skill rooted in helping others.

Drawing from her own career journey and real conversations with the next generation of female professionals, Sharan reveals why the most effective way to grow your network is by connecting others. When you become the person who opens doors, you build trust, expand your influence, and create a ripple effect of opportunity that comes back to you.

Because when you grow her network, you don’t just change her future, you transform your own.

In this webinar, you'll learn how to:

  • Reframe networking as a form of leadership
  • Build confidence by focusing on helping, not asking
  • Strengthen and reactivate your existing network through intentional introductions
  • Grow your influence by supporting the next generation of women

Meet Sharan Hildebrand

Sharan Hildebrand is the Founder and CEO of Fearless Sisters, a platform dedicated to helping women build powerful networks that open doors and create opportunity. After more than 30 years leading high-impact sales and alliance teams in the technology industry, she stepped away from corporate America to focus full-time on her mission to help the next generation of women rise with confidence, connection, and community.

Through her research interviewing college seniors and early-career professionals, Sharan has uncovered a critical gap in how women learn to build networks and is redefining networking as a leadership skill rooted in helping others. She teaches women how to grow their influence by becoming trusted connectors who open doors, build meaningful relationships, and create a ripple effect of opportunity.

Sharan is also the author of Finish the Sentence, a business fable about women unlocking their power, and a sought-after speaker known for blending real-world stories with practical, actionable strategies that inspire women to take confident action.
