Temerity?

Ever seen a woman in charge and wondered about what it took for her to get there?

We think that it takes some nerve. Some audacity. Some well-learned “umph”.

In short, some Temerity!

Temerity is an archive of notes from beyond the glass ceiling — from women, by women.

Temerity gives leading women their flowers, harvesting their wisdom and sowing the seeds, so others can bloom.

In each episode, our mighty women unpack their journeys through the glass ceiling, over 4 segments.
