VANCOUVER, British Columbia — Mission Accepted Media announced today that it will host the official celebration and virtual world tour of “Mission Accepted: 262 Women Creatives, Ultrapreneurs & Media” on Wednesday, December 4th. The exclusive live online event will feature celebrated American actress Kate Linder as the keynote speaker.

The live online celebration is a key milestone in a five-year international movement dedicated to uniting women leaders, innovators, and entrepreneurs from around the globe.

Headlining the event is Kate Linder, best known for her iconic role as Esther Valentine on The Young and the Restless, a character she has played since 1982. With over 40 years on the soap opera, she stands as one of the longest-serving actors in American daytime television.

A Bold Book for a Bolder Movement

“Mission Accepted: 262 Women Creatives, Ultrapreneurs & Media” is a large-format coffee table book that showcases the real-life stories of contemporary women who are actively transforming business, media, and social impact. The anthology also pays a powerful historical tribute, honoring 50 female pioneers whose legacies paved the way for today’s changemakers.

“This is about legacy, leadership, and leverage,” says Deb Drummond, founder of Mission Accepted Media and creator of the 262 Book Series. “We’re placing the stories of women who are shaping the future directly into the hands of those who help shape the culture. It’s a bold move—and the right moment.”

The book project began as a simple storytelling initiative and has rapidly grown into a worldwide movement celebrating visibility, leadership, and lasting legacy. The full anthology features 262 authors, 550 speakers, and 126 quote contributors.

So far, the Mission Accepted movement has achieved significant reach through its affiliated media programs, including The Women’s Channel TV Show, garnering 900 million viewers and generating more than 5 million media impressions.

“This book is about creating space for women to encourage and be encouraged,” said Drummond. “It’s about celebrating gumption in all its forms—leadership, creativity, innovation, and the courage to rise.”
