United Southern Bank proudly attended the 3rd Annual Women’s Summit at the Silo Event Center.

This annual event is hosted by the Christian County Chamber of Commerce each March in support of Women’s History Month.

We had the pleasure of hearing from a Women at Work Panel that included Royale Marfil, Hopkinsville Police Department Public Information Officer, Krista Forsberg, General Manager of Walmart D.C., and Dr. Autumn Smith, OBGYN at Jennie Stuart Health. The panelists shared their experiences of breaking barriers in male-dominated industries and the journeys that led them to their current roles.

We also had the privilege of hearing from keynote speaker Amy Watson, a seasoned journalist whose career started in Paducah and concluded with an impressive 18-year tenure at Newschannel 5 in Nashville.

We ended the day with a roundtable sessions that included discussions about Empowering Minds, Work-Life Balance, Taking a Break, Self Promotion, Women’s Health and Getting Involved.
