Our Origin Story
“I cannot think of a better moment in our generation for women to leverage this technology and boldly bring justice to ourselves, our ancestors, our daughters, and their daughters, and to unleash our essence in ways that the world has never seen before.”
– Miri Rodriguez, Empressa CEO
The game was rigged
Miri Rodriguez and Stacey Danheiser know what it’s like to give everything you have—only to watch the ladder pulled up before you can climb. They’ve been the only women in the room. Told to “wait their turn” while others skipped ahead. They’ve seen brilliant women stay silent because speaking up came with a cost, and they’ve witnessed women paid less than men for the same work.

The data doesn’t lie
Then the data confirmed what their hearts already knew: the gender parity gap isn’t closing fast enough. Nobel Prize–winning economist Claudia Goldin revealed why—how motherhood penalties, long-hour cultures, and outdated systems keep the game rigged. And the World Economic Forum delivered the statistic that stopped them cold: at this pace, gender parity is still 123 years away.
Justice delayed is justice denied
123 years? No. That’s too long. That’s too many women left unheard, passed over, shut out of boardrooms, diminished, and silenced - our wisdom unshared. The systemic under-recording and erasure of women’s narratives has already cost the world dearly - across knowledge, culture, innovation, identity, and justice.
AI: The great equalizer
So they built Empressa - not a glass ceiling, but a glass slipper. A place where women step fully into visibility, transform expertise into income, and join a global movement of legacy-makers. Where rising women leaders make confident, informed decisions and connect with mentors and allies. Where women’s stories are valued, preserved, and monetized.
Because AI can widen the gap, or close it. Used with intention, it becomes a catalyst for equity. At Empressa, our AI is built from women’s realities, ambitions, and lived experiences - shaping an inclusive future.
123 years? We refuse. We’ve already waited long enough.
