Women 2 Women: Slow Feet Don't Eat
Building a Business, Taking Risks, and Learning to Lead Without Waiting for Permission

Join the Gaston Business Association's Women 2 Women program for an inspiring conversation with Angela McIlveen, CEO and Co-Founder of McIlveen Family Law Firm.

Growing up on a small dairy farm as the first in her family to graduate from college, Angela didn't have a blueprint for success—but she didn't let that stop her. Through determination, resilience, and a willingness to take calculated risks, she built one of North Carolina's leading family law firms while raising a family and learning to lead along the way.

In this engaging session, Angela will share the lessons she's learned as an attorney, entrepreneur, and leader, including how to build confidence, navigate uncertainty, embrace opportunities, and stop waiting for permission to pursue your goals.

Whether you're launching a business, advancing your career, or looking for inspiration to take your next step, you'll leave with practical insights and renewed confidence to lead with purpose.

Come connect with fellow professional women, grow your network, and be inspired by a story of perseverance, leadership, and taking action.
