Now, more than ever, women are finding strength when they lean into the power of community. In celebration of that notion, Instagram for Business introduces togetHER, a 3-part series that shares the stories of three entrepreneurs and the successes and struggles they encounter on their journeys.

This empowering series shines a light on the importance of harnessing the power of community — both in real life and on Instagram — in order to adapt and innovate your business while overcoming gender disparities and a global pandemic.

The resilience of these three women is met with the force of communities that continue to encourage and inspire.

(Updated on March 16, 2021 to include the Guide on Instagram.)
