What is Rise Up?
Rise Up is the first official Harris Team 1000 and above leadership event exclusively for women! Whether you are married, single, or in a relationship, the most important woman to your business is YOU! I believe we were all created to be Diamonds, but before we can shine, we must first learn to withstand the heat and pressure of developing our unique talents and gifts to influence and benefit others while furthering God's Kingdom. Leadership is about rising up to serve and empower others in cultivating their own gifts and relationships, in order to accomplish a common mission.
I'm excited to offer this premier event at the beautiful, historic Hotel Fort Des Moines! This hotel has recently undergone a 7 year, $60 million renovation and has been fully restored to its original beauty, with a touch of modern elegance. It is listed in the National Registry of Historic Places and is the only hotel in the area with a AAA rating of 4 Diamonds, so I know we must be in the right place! ~ BRENDA HARRIS

Key Speakers
Kristen Ladenburger
Kristen and her husband, Adam, are both from the Quad Cities area. They started their business when they were just 19, after Adam was contacted about the opportunity while waiting tables at a restaurant. Today, they live in the Des Moines area and have built a successful business that allows them to be full time business owners and parents. Kristen and Adam are in Emerald qualification and members of the Markiewicz Team Leadership Forum with Diamond on the horizon!
Meredith Brown
Meredith and Mark are from Waverly, Iowa. Meredith started her Amway business as a young, single mother after learning about the opportunity from Mark. A few years later, they got married and have built a significant business together, allowing her to walk away from her corporate career to be a full time business owner and mother to four. Meredith and Mark are Founders Emeralds, members of the Markiewicz Team Leadership Forum and are quickly moving on to Diamond!
Brenda Harris
Brenda and her husband, Brent, were traveling very different career paths when they first got married. They were raising a family and certainly never dreamed of building a large network marketing business. When they saw the Amway business, they were drawn to the people, values, goals, and cooperative effort. Today, they are both full time business owners and enjoy pursuing their dreams and goals together and sharing that same opportunity with others. Brenda and Brent have achieved the Diamond level and are excited about moving on to EDC and breaking more Diamonds!
