PowerHER Austin 2022
We’re committed to helping women grow, succeed and thrive in their professional and personal lives. The second annual PowerHER Austin event provided attendees with exclusive networking and learning opportunities from like-minded trailblazers.
Today, I'm in Austin, Texas. And I am here at a wonderful, wonderful conference we're doing called Power Her. And I cannot express how exciting and how energizing today is. What we're doing to help women, what women are doing to help each other, the businesses there, the startup ventures, venture capital, it is so exciting. And just talking about investing and how every woman in America can invest their money and take care of themselves.
How Her is so important because I believe that bringing women together in a space like this where we can share our networks is incredibly powerful. One of the things that I always tell women is that there is one thing that we could all do to advance each other quickly, and that's share your networks. Every single week, think about who you can introduce to someone else in your network.
Finances, community, power, investment, entrepreneurship, here under one roof we have 250 of Austin's greatest and finest leaders. And we get to celebrate each other in really unique ways that's why this event is so, so special and important to me.
It's our way of bringing together the community to allow women to connect. Really to provide insights on how to improve financial wellness, how to navigate raising capital while growing and scaling your company, and how to build your board. And also not forgetting how to take control of your own well-being.
It's not just professional. Like we're all here as professionals, it's also personal. And to me, Power Her gets personal. I have a wonderful mother who was a working mother as I was growing up. I have two wonderful little girl's, girl dad times 2. And then also my wife who's by far the number one female in my life. They've all been supportive of me, and this is a way of giving back.
I think about this every day about who I can help and who in my network needs to know someone else.
There is so much to be gained and learned from other women, and I love being able to work with people collaboratively. It's not competitive, and I think together we're better. And I really value the female relationships I have at work and my mentors. And that's something that I hope to pass on as well.
Power Her is super important for me personally, for my business, and for our entire firm because we're absolute advocates for women in startups, women in venture, as CEOs, as founders, as investors, as board members. I want to make sure that we're delivering the breadth of the entire JPMorgan franchise globally on a local level here in Austin to make sure that they're all set up for success.
I love helping a person not make the same mistakes and failures that I did. And if I can help someone say, hey, look, this is what I did and what the result was, it almost makes it like that failure wasn't so bad because it helped someone else not make the same one.
It really is right there in the title. It's about empowerment. It's about women feeling empowered to take hold of their own careers, of their own lives, to achieve financial stability, but most importantly, to have choices.
What makes me a strong ally is my ability really to just listen. I think listening and understanding what people are focusing on, what's important to them, that's how we actually affect change. That's how we actually support our peers. And it all starts with listening.
It's so hard taking that leap into the unknown and fighting through all the challenges you will face. So I think I just want all the women who have done this to know that it's not easy for any of us, and you should take the time to really embrace the fact that you are doing something really special and honor yourself for that.

J.P. Morgan’s Women on the Move PowerHER Austin event promoted advancing women, empowering and inspiring them to seek success in their professional and personal lives through mentorship and the power of community.
Ms. Torabi (VO):
Today’s event, Women on the Move in Austin, is all about advancing women, period.
Ms. Saperstein (VO):
Bringing the community together, talk about the things that we work on as a business.
Ms. Garvey:
I want you all to repeat after me: The future is female.
Ms. Agather:
Every time I said, “I get to interview Laura Schwab, President of Aston Martin Americas,” they go, “It’s a woman?”
Ms. Schwab:
We’ve grown our business since I started over 300%.
Ms. Agather:
Wow.
Ms. Sampat:
I got 78 rejections, went from wanting to raise 5-7 million dollars to raising a lot more because it took so long that I raised the value of the company in the process.
Ms. Garvey:
We actually hold in our hands the ability to make all the changes that we want to see.
Ms. Torabi:
Two key takeaways from today’s event is: One, you are in control of your life. From my end, I think the more financial power you have, the more ability you have to make those choices…
Ms. Saperstein:
And the second is that woman have great perseverance. So, we heard from so many entrepreneurs and leaders talk about not stopping when they heard no, when they couldn’t get money for their businesses, but they just kept going. What resonated the most with me today is really seeing so many women and men come together here to really talk about how they could further each other.
Ms. Torabi:
I just love the intimacy. I love being able to connect so closely with women from one area.
Ms. Agather:
Zero percent when you got there were on the leadership team were women, correct?
Ms. Schwab:
That’s correct.
Ms. Agather:
Today?
Ms. Schwab:
50 percent…
Ms. Agather:
50 percent!
Ms. Schwab:
…female on our leadership team.
Ms. Agather:
50 percent!
Ms. Brogdon:
Who are those diamonds in the rough that you see a spark in them, you see something that has potential? And the more that we can help build them up, the better mentors and sponsors even that we can be.
Ms. Torabi (VO):
The power of community is not to be taken for granted.
Ms. Garvey:
Find your tribe. Find your people that are going to help you. And be part of other people’s tribes where you’re supporting and encouraging them.
Ms. Saperstein:
There’s support here not only from JPMorgan Chase, but from each other. And I really hope they left with a sense of encouragement and inspiration that we’re going to keep doing more, and that women will get there.

Ms. Thomas:
It’s not just about us, it’s something much bigger than us.
Mr. Millington:
It was just fun getting together with everyone before the sun even comes up.
Mr. Feinstein:
I feel very passionate about the cause. Memorial Sloane Kettering is the largest pediatric cancer institute in the United States.
Mr. Wieland:
When I think about the kids that the funds benefit, I think about the love that I feel when I look into my children’s eyes.
Mr. Millington:
It kinda gets you choked up thinking about that so many different families have had to fight through this. And it just feels like one of the toughest things anyone has to go through. And so you really feel for someone when they’re going through that.
Mr. Hargus:
There’s certainly parallels between the camaraderie in the office and also what we see in the gym.
Mr. Millington:
So much of what we’re doing in the gym, we’re doing together. Having each other’s back. And that’s similar to what we go through at work.
Ms. Thomas:
To get to work with people who are super-smart, super-driven, super-competitive. And we get to do that every day here in the office.
Mr. Weiland:
At J.P. Morgan, part of the reason I joined the team here is because of the true teamwork model that we have. That involves picking each other up after some hard times and also challenging each other when we’re all doing well.
Ms. Thomas:
I love Austin—I am a Texas Longhorn.
Mr. Weiland:
I love Austin because I was born here. And there’s a deep-rooted cause within me and within my family as far as who we’re helping, the people that we see, and the changes that are happening in that community.
Ms. Thomas:
Between the lifestyle, the food, the live music, I don’t really know what there is not to love about Austin.
Mr. Fisher:
We’re really invested in our community and it really means a lot to me that we’re willing to spend our time outside the office and come together. Have a little fun but really raise money for such a great cause.
Mr. Hargus:
We’re really excited to be there from the ground up and really be the foundation of an active community.
Mr. Feinstein:
At the end of the day, this is about Memorial Sloane Kettering and the great work that they’re doing in pediatric cancer research.
Mr. Wieland:
I’d love to take the momentum built this year and carry that into subsequent years, and just keep growing.
