In this week's episode of First Lady and Friends, Utah's First Lady, Abby Cox, is joined by Pat Jones (CEO of Women's Leadership Institute, Co-founder and owner of Dan Jones & Associates, and former Utah senator) to talk about understanding the need for equality at a very young age, the impact that sports can have on business, and how her entrepreneurship helped her succeed during college.
Pat also opens up about her experience with market research, how it led her to run for office, and why it's so necessary to have more women at the table in politics.
Lastly, we talk about some of the initiatives that Pat is currently working on with WLI including the ElevateHER Challenge and a political development series, as well as some of the barriers that still exist that limit growth for women in the state.

Join Utah’s First Lady Abby Cox and her friends for timely and candid conversations with fascinating people with unique perspectives in an effort to unite us all through our common humanity. Each week, Abby dives into discussions on topics ranging from education to motherhood to mental health and beyond.
Abby is an outspoken advocate for “getting proximate” with people who have different viewpoints, and using her platform as Utah’s First Lady to combat the empathy crisis our country is facing.
Come along with us as we journey to bring courage, compassion and connection back into our homes and communities... and have a lot of fun along the way! THANK YOU for being our friend.
