What Moves You Forward? | Yasmine and Abby
December 18, 2018 | Craig Smith, Kelly Cordingley | 1 min read
Right off the bat, Yasmine knew what continually moves her forward: God. For Abby, it’s her art and drive to compete to be the best in her field.
Flatland spoke to audience members at the TEDxKCWomen event on Dec. 1 at the Music Hall in downtown Kansas City, Missouri. We asked them what moves them forward, in keeping with the theme of the women-focused event.
Every Tuesday and Thursday through Spring of 2019, Flatland will share stories of Kansas City’s neighbors. Find them online here and on Flatland’s Youtube page — and don’t forget to subscribe.
