What a day! I had the honor of being the morning speaker for Women Presidents Organization - MN Development Day on Staying Human in the World of AI. This event was a unique one for me: ❤️ The boss (and now friend) whose leadership style still inspires me, and (in a massive way) our business at Good Company Consulting, connected me to this event. Thanks for believing in me in the very beginning, Debra Arbit, and for bringing me in for this event! 📸 🙏🏻 Massive thank you's to Myrna Marofsky and Leah Goldstein Moses for all that you do, and for being such trusted partners before the event. 🤖 Shawntera H. and Nancy Lyons - I LEARNED SO MUCH FROM YOU. Was that too loud? Seriously, so much learning about AI, strategy, authenticity, design, presenting. It was incredible. 📚 I got to meet Hanna Kjeldbjerg and Amy Quale from Wise Ink Media (our book publisher) in person! So much fun to finally make that in-person connection. 📸 Amazing to speak with Christine Frisk and Stephanie Kent ahead of time, and Susan (Sue) M. Anderson, thanks for always being a cheerleader and champion ✨ Endlessly grateful for these kinds of events that are fueled with growth, inspiration, and warmth. #keynotespeaker #womenbusinessowner #entrepreneurs #ai #humanleadership #leadership

I believe every one of us has a story to tell. And for so many, that story comes with big questions: Who am I becoming as I am writing my book? How is my story meant to serve others? These questions lead us to some of the most powerful, transformative work of our lives. This Monday, from 9 to 10 a.m., I’ll be joining Angela Davis Davis on MPR News, along with my friend Laura Zats—phenomenal literary agent from Headwater Literary. Together, we’ll be diving deep into the world of publishing. We’ll talk about the changes, the challenges, and what it truly takes to bring a book into the world. If you’re dreaming of sharing your story, or just curious about what goes into making a book happen, I hope you’ll tune in. Here’s the link to join us:
