More about Iffy and her amazing work:

As the founder and principal attorney at Ibekwe Law, PLLC, Iffy Ibekwe believes that every woman deserves to make decisions that affect her with wills, trusts, and other estate planning documents. Emboldening women is Iffy’s calling, and she is also passionate about speaking about entrepreneurship and supporting other women lawyers who desire to practice estate planning law. 

 Iffy graduated from The University of Texas at Austin (undergrad and law school) and has practiced law for 14 years. She is the board president for Be the Bridge, a national nonprofit dedicated to racial justice and reconciliation. 

 When she is not spending time with her remarkable husband and four spirited children, Iffy runs her signature We Read Her book club, which focuses on the study and discussion of literature authored by women of color.

Sage brings personal experiences, humor and practical methods for approaching challenging conversations. She is relatable, supportive and authentic – tremendous assets for diversity and inclusion conversations. Sage blended her skillful communication expertise and training, with information and exercises on empathy, equity and social justice to create more inclusive, person-to-person leadership  practices.
