Independent Women’s Forum is delighted to announce that Denver-based communication guru and founder of the Colorado Women’s Alliance Debbie Brown is the latest in our popular series of Champion Women profiles.

Brown is founder and CEO of Amplify Strategies, a strategic communications firm famous for its compelling messaging.

The Colorado Women’s Alliance was also in part about messaging.

“There was only one message for women out there,” Brown recalls, “and I believed there was a market opportunity to broaden the message to women, particularly along the lines of economic freedom.”

Right now, Brown is engaged in another novel form of talking to women (and men) about energy. Let’s call it show and tell: Brown invites influential Coloradans to tour a fracking site to meet with environmental engineers in the field and learn more about energy production through her consulting role with Coloradans for Responsible Energy Development.

“It is like NASA but underground,” says Brown. “It’s very technical and very precise. I like bringing skeptical people, because I want them to have all their questions answered by the experts on-site.”

In this freewheeling profile, Brown discusses work-life balance (she is the mother of three) and we bet you didn’t know she was in the 4-H Club as a kid.

We know you will enjoy meeting this creative woman of many talents.
