If you could change one thing about your industry, what would it be and why?
I don’t know that it’s so much of a change in the industry, but I would love to see people be brave enough to heal. There is so much fear that holds people back and keeps them from thriving. If I could change that I know that there would be so much more mental and emotional freedom.
Tell us about a pivotal moment in your life that brought you to where you are today.
This may be the case for a lot of people, but becoming a mother and then becoming a grandmother shifted my focus. I realized as a mother that I had to be much more selfless. There was a responsibility that I felt to shape and nurture which meant that I had to get out of my way. As a grandmother, I was reminded that I have a legacy. This transition in my life made me think, and it compels me today to reach for greater. I want to be an example and leave a legacy that will encourage my family long after I am gone.
