Keynote Speaker: Emma Lembke
Founder and Executive Director of the LOG OFF Movement
Topics: Social Media Impact, Privacy, FOMO, Mental Health
Emma Lembke is a 20-year-old youth digital advocate at Washington University in St. Louis working to address social mediaโs impact on younger generations. As a senior in high school, Lembke founded LOG OFF, a youth movement dedicated to uplifting and empowering youth to tackle the complexities of social media and its impact on their privacy, safety, and mental health. As a youth-led movement, LOG OFF provides an often overlooked and critical perspective on social media by leveraging and empowering the underrepresented experts in the field โ Generation Z. Emma also co-chairs Design It For Us the only youth-led coalition pushing for online platforms and social media to be designed with kids and teens in mind, rather than as an afterthought. Her efforts have been covered by numerous media outlets including the New York Times, 60 Minutes, CBS, MTV, npr, The Hill, and Bloomberg.

About the Girl Leadership Summit
What is F.A.B. 2023, you ask? It’s an unforgettable afternoon of inspiration, fun, energy, and amazement designed for girls 11-17! This is the event to impact girls’ lives!
Best-selling author of Total Package Girl, Kristi K. Hoffman created this leadership event in 2015 as a way for young girls 11-17 to unite and empower one another.
Our goal is to discover how amazing each girl is and for each attendee to leave feeling empowered, inspired, with the desire to be the force in her world. It’s time we look outside of ourselves and lead the charge. Doing that starts with each of us being the force and respecting each other. When we do that, we have unstoppable power.“
