Meet the Founder
Dr. Treyce' Gaston-Spears is the founder of Wise Women Webinars (WWW), a strategic tool used initially in research of Black women that offered a safe place for women to be informed, come together, find healing in shared experience, confront the issues of the day, and create knowledge without judgement.
This simple idea, fuled by a passion to help Black women navigate the academic terrains, workplace, and other social environments, is the foundation for WWW. "In my research it became apparent that the journey of Black women to success in academia is somewhat impacted by their dual marginalization as racialized and genderized individuals." Utilizing the lens of intersectionality as a means of empowerment, Black women share their lived experiences, helping eachother combat barriers to success.
Wise Women Webinars is on course to swiftly become the "gold standard" for organizations and institutions who consider diversity, equity, inclusion, mental health, and well-being a priority.
Wise Woman Webinars benefits women of color as a unique and life-changing support system. Our goal is to continue to bring information about the changing landscape of academia, which is particularly inportant with an unsupportive government majority wo would erase DEI, Black History, and every initiative that supports people of color, LBGTQ+, disabled, etc., to provide content and services that are strategic, theraputic, healing, helpful, unifying, uplifting and inspiring; In-person Institutes that will become a highlight of the academic experiene. Additionally, we strive to address the needs of Black women and women of color in a way that unites, and uplifts individuals as they make their journey to success and beyond.
