President and CEO of Women's Affordable Housing Network (recovering Tax Partner in Affordable Housing industry)
The latest episode of WAHNcast features an incredible conversation with Commissioner Eileen Higgins of Miami Dade. Her candid and insightful discussion was both honest and impressive, showcasing her remarkable confidence and resilience. Here are a few highlights from our chat that I found particularly inspiring: Her Best Advice: On dealing with critics, Eileen says, “Let them have one chance to complain and listen to them. Let them be heard.” It’s a powerful reminder that while it’s important to listen, you don’t have to let negativity consume you. Facing Inequality: Eileen describes the challenge of being treated unequally as a woman as “like swatting flies.” This reminded me a lot of stories I hear at Women's Affordable Housing Network (WAHN) - the ability to continue moving forward with the eye on the end goal. Senior Projects Innovation: Co-living spaces designed for both affordability and sociability. It’s forward-thinking solutions like these that can make a real difference in our communities. I love Eileen’s goal of meeting 50 people a week—it resonates with my own networking goals and underscores the importance of connection and engagement in our professional lives. #WAHncast #Leadership #Networking #WomenInLeadership #CommunityInnovation #Inspiration
Join us for an inspiring power hour with Commissioner Eileen Higgins, a trailblazer and someone who has a lifetime of community service in communities she has lived around the world. She delves into her impactful work with innovative mixed-income projects and transformative community initiatives. An especially insightful part of the discussion is around logical interaction between government, legislators, and the housing authority to ensure budgeting, permitting and more do not hold us to the development of new projects. This dynamic discussion highlights her dedication to improving lives and fostering vibrant, inclusive communities. Listen here: https://lnkd.in/dapcWcZm
