About Amy and Nancy:
Sisters and business partners, Amy and Nancy Harrington, are the Co-Founders of The Passionistas Project Sisterhood, an inclusive community where passion-driven women mostly from marginalized communities come to get support, find their purpose, and feel empowered to transform their lives and change the world.
They have created a space where women from ALL backgrounds can come together and support each other in the areas of business development, personal growth, and social impact based on the principles of sisterhood — loyalty, trust, empathy, vulnerability, and joy.
Both Co-Founders walked away from high-profile jobs in Hollywood to work together.
Amy was the first woman in the history of the entertainment industry to hold the position of Vice President of Post Production & Visual Effects. While at Warner Bros., she worked on over 250 feature films like the Harry Potter and the Matrix franchises.
Nancy had a successful graphic design business and theater company before creating Academy Award campaigns for Miramax.
Their career as celebrity interviewers has included chats with Julia Louis-Dreyfus, Rita Moreno, Lily Tomlin, Laverne Cox, Carol Burnett, and more. Now through their global Passionistas Project Sisterhood, podcast and Power of Passionistas summit, they strive to inspire women to follow their passions and join forces in the fight for equality for all.
