Wichita Life Spotlight

We put out a form for you to recommend people doing special things in our community, so let’s keep it rolling!

Today we are recognizing Jill D Miller of the Finishing School for Modern Women:

“Jill D. Miller is like a local celebrity. Everywhere she goes, people recognize her and call out to her. Already known as a business consultant and public speaker, her visibility increased dramatically after adding a vibrant online presence as Headmistress of the Finishing School for Modern Women in 2015. She has to frequently clarify that her finishing school is not like your grandmother’s “charm” school.

She explains her school's concept: "Not because we need finishing, but because we're never finished." Through classes and workshops, Jill inspires women who may be stuck in their personal or professional lives to overcome obstacles and move toward their goals. In fact, among the hundreds who have taken her women empowerment classes, many have told her, “You changed my life!” As we emerged from the pandemic in 2021, women craved rejoining the community they had lost. So, she founded the Badass Women of Wichita Alliance with regular gatherings to provide support, promote nonprofits, have parties and fun activities to develop “badassery.”” - Wichita Life Reader
