Cup of Courage: Navigating Disruption
Disruption doesn't knock before it enters.
It shows up as a technology that reshapes your industry overnight. As a role that disappears. As the moment you realize the plan needs a new plan.
Cup of Courage is an intimate gathering hosted by InHerShoes Movement for women in the middle of exactly that. This edition looks at disruption from two angles: the world being remade by AI, and the quieter personal reinventions happening alongside it.
Two speakers will share their own disruption stories. Then we'll have the conversation that usually doesn't happen at professional events. Honest, unfiltered, and held in a room full of women who get it.
Space is intentionally limited for intimate, intentional conversation.
Speakers
Fireside Chat with Ashley Wen
Ashley Wen is the CEO and Founder of Radical, which uses phone-based 3D scanning and custom manufacturing to make bras that actually fit. After spending over $4,000 on 50+ bras that did not fit, she became a certified professional bra fitter, discovered that most women's real sizes don't exist in stores, and founded Radical to bring scan-to-custom manufacturing to the category. She holds a granted U.S. patent for Radical's end-to-end manufacturing technology and has personally fit 500+ customers into Radical bras.
Before Radical, Ashley built her career in education technology, leading marketing at Coursera, the Emerson Collective, and Epic (acq. BYJU's).

She is the Founder of InHerShoes, an award-winning nonprofit dedicated to leadership development and capacity building for women and girls, built on the belief that courage is a practice.
While leading InHerShoes, Judith also joined as the founding social impact hire at Rare Beauty and the Rare Impact Fund founded by Selena Gomez, scaling the company's global social impact division from a single role into a full-functioning business unit and philanthropic arm.

A first-generation Filipino American and daughter of immigrants, she's spent her career as connective tissue between communities who don't always share a seat at the table — bringing an interdisciplinary lens shaped by philosophy, law, and a Master's of Science in Digital Media & Management, with a focus on tech, media, and entrepreneurship.
