This May, we turn our attention to the women not just keeping pace—but setting it. Across the Treasure Valley and Idaho, women are expanding what leadership, entrepreneurship, and impact look like. They’re building with heart, leading with purpose, and navigating challenges with creativity, courage, and grit.

Their work spans countless paths—each one shaped by experience, vision, and the drive to make a difference. These are not just stories of success, but of persistence, reinvention, and growth. They reflect what’s possible when women lead with both strategy and soul, and when communities support their progress.

In this issue, we celebrate the women who are helping shape a stronger, more inclusive future. Their leadership is making space for new voices, fresh ideas, and meaningful change. They remind us that transformation often begins at the local level—with small actions, shared purpose, and the will to keep moving forward.

As we honor their stories, we’re also inspired to keep listening, supporting, and showing up—for one another and for what’s next.
