Get to know us
Built From Broken™ is the heart-born vision of Debbe Crawford, a woman who rebuilt her life from the ruins of unimaginable loss and refused to allow the breaking to be her final chapter. This inaugural annual summit exists for every woman who has or needs to start again. For every woman who has stood in the aftermath of devastation and taken one more breath, one more step, one more chance. For every woman who has been told and refused to accept “that’s just the way life is” and instead decided to rise. What This Summit Stands For: Built From Broken™ is a gathering of women who who are in need of or have: Walked through fire Reclaimed their identity Transformed pain into purpose Determined to impact the world because of, not despite, their story. It is a celebration of resilience. A blueprint for reinvention. A reminder that many of the most powerful lives were first forged in fire.
