If women truly knew our collective power, all the nonsense would have stopped a long time ago!Robin Hamilton is an Emmy-award-winning TV Host, Producer, Filmmaker, Moderator, and Speaker specializing in creating impactful narratives that inspire transformation. As the founder of ARound Robin Production Company, she produces compelling films for non-profits, enhancing their fundraising and marketing efforts. Robin's documentaries, such as "This Little Light of Mine" and "Odessa’s Reign," highlight social justice and resilience. It’s time we get real about the struggles women face in media, filmmaking, and business. Robin shares her raw journey—from fighting for an agent’s attention to carving her own path and creating impactful content. But here's the truth... it’s not just about working harder or being "smart enough." It’s about getting that leg up—whether it's an inheritance, a connection, or just finding someone who believes in you. And the system often isn’t built for us to win.Robin talks openly about the challenges she faced in the media and filmmaking industries, and how women often struggle with a lack of support and access to opportunities. There are systemic issues that create barriers for women, especially women of color, everywhere. Her key is storytelling to boost the business and boost our values.The power is in our hands to create a different system. Women need to collaborate, share openly, and support each other more. It’s about helping each other rise, not competing. When it comes to business, know your worth and double it. If you don't stand up for your value, the world won’t either! Let’s not just break the glass ceiling—let’s shatter it. Together.
