    Join us for an inspiring conversation with Mallory Brown—filmmaker, humanitarian, and speaker. We first crossed paths with Mallory at the 417 Biz Ladies Who Launch event, where her incredible story left a lasting impression on us. We knew we had to share her journey with you. Mallory's latest project, "Walk a Mile," is a global marathon for women's empowerment, where she walks 26 miles alongside 26 women, each with their own powerful story. In this episode, Mallory opens up about the experiences that led her to this project and the passion that drives her. She shares deeply moving stories of the women she's met, like a homeless woman from Michigan and a survivor of an acid attack. Through these stories, you'll hear recurring themes: the resilience of the human spirit, the transformative power of kindness, and how we are all connected at our core. Don’t miss this remarkable journey of strength and hope: 26 miles, 26 women, 26 stories. As Mallory reminds us, "Don’t judge someone until you’ve walked a mile in their shoes."
