Aileen’s work dismantles the outdated sales systems that were never written for women - systems that reward grind, pressure, and posturing, leaving founders exhausted, second-guessing, and caught in revenue cycles that feel fragile at best.

Stephanie Myers aka Bias Breaking Beauty, is a seasoned advocate and change-maker with over two decades of experience working in male-dominated industries. As an advocate for gender equity globally, Stephanie believes that exposing and challenging the biases women face is essential to the fight for gender equality.
Raised in an environment that often relegated women to second-class status, Stephanie was inspired by her mother, Mary, a resolute and competent woman who taught her to value her own strengths and individuality beyond societal expectations. This foundational belief fueled Stephanie's determination to alter the narrative for herself and other women striving to make their mark.

Her efforts are driven by a vision where the strength of one's character, rather than the gender assigned at birth, defines success. This clarion call for systemic change aims to empower women to assert their worth, demand their rightful place, and foster environments that value diversity and equity.
