Reader,
I’m writing this from California, somewhere between campus tours and lots of sunshine and iced tea.
My family is in the thick of college visits, and I have to tell you there is something that just stops you in your tracks about being on a college campus in spring. The energy is unmistakable. Students are at the very beginning of figuring out what they believe, what they’re good at, and what mark they want to leave on the world.
They’re just starting to accumulate the experiences that will eventually become their expertise, and really unpacking the convictions that will shape how they lead, advise, advocate, and create. It’s all still ahead of them, and you can totally feel it in the air.
As I've walked along the tree lined sidwalks, I've found myself thinking about the women I get to work with... women decades further down that road. Women who have done the hard work, built the expertise, led through the consequential moments, and who are now ready to step fully into their message and leadership.
That’s the work I love most. Helping people pull all of that conviction, the kind that only comes from lived experience, into a strategy and a story that’s actually allows them to do the work they feel deeply called into.
I’m sharing all of this because a beautiful piece about my work just came out through The Visionaries Collective, a community I’m honored to be part of. It goes deeper into why I do this work, where it started, and what I’m building toward.
If you’re curious, I’d love for you to read it: READ THE FEATURE
Now, I'm off to visit another campus in LA and soak in the sun!
