Tracey’s journey to supporting people started with her experiences of adversity at the young age of 8 years. A family tragedy expedited her maturity. She became a business partner and confidant to her mother who took over operating the family mixed farm business. She witnessed the resilient leadership role that her mother took on and learned the many skills required to run a business. She watched her mom not only survive, but thrive as she navigated entrepreneurship in a very male-dominated business. Other devastating losses throughout her life inspired Tracey to integrate vulnerability with her business acumen to inspire leaders to do the same.
Without the incredible support of partners and sponsors, WESK would be unable to offer the extensive wraparound support our women entrepreneurs need. It is through our partnerships and sponsorships that we are able to extend our impact far beyond our core services. We would like to thank:
