At YMI Insurance, we’re always looking for ways to grow—both professionally and personally. That’s why Erica and Modesty attended the Pocono Chamber Women in Business HerStory at Work event, held at the Fusia Center for the Arts in Stroudsburg.
The event brought together women from across our community for an afternoon centered around storytelling, learning, and empowerment—and it was truly an inspiring experience.
Learning the Importance of Marketing and Branding
One of the highlights of the event was hearing from Quantified Media, who shared valuable insight into marketing and the importance of building a strong personal and professional brand. From how you present yourself online to the impact of visual content, it was a great reminder of how much branding plays a role in today’s business world.
A Story of Confidence and Growth
We also had the opportunity to hear from Brianna Strunk, a local news anchor, who shared her journey in the broadcast industry. Listening to her story—how she built confidence, navigated challenges, and grew in her career—was both relatable and motivating.
Turning Dreams Into Reality
Fran Marino, owner of Fusia Dance and host of the event, brought everything together by sharing her own story. Her journey of turning a passion into a successful business was a powerful reminder that with dedication, confidence, and persistence, goals can truly become reality.
Why Events Like This Matter
Events like HerStory at Work go beyond networking—they create space for connection, learning, and inspiration. Being surrounded by driven and supportive women in our community was something Erica and Modesty truly appreciated.
Erica and Modesty left feeling motivated, inspired, and grateful to be part of such a strong and uplifting community here in the Poconos.
Staying Connected
At YMI Insurance, we value opportunities like this that allow us to continue learning and growing. We’re proud to be part of a community that supports one another and encourages success, and we look forward to attending more events like this in the future.
