4 Powerful Takeaways From Last Month

We’ve been busy and I am still SOARING. After a fantastic month, keynoting at two conferences in Chicago, I am soaring and swimming in the incredible aftermath, reflections and take-aways. It was a tremendous few days, and I would love to share the top 3 aspects which blew me away 👇

🔥The people.

I had SUCH a blast getting to know so many incredible women at the Women in Law Enforcement Conference (a Foundation Research Associates Conference), what drives them and what they truly need.

The people I met at the Social Determinants of Health Conference (a Rise Conference) continue to think of out-of-the-box ways to solve problems, to save lives, and to really address the issues facing the health of our nation’s people through curiosity, cross-collaboration and information in ways which haven’t been done before.

🔥The engagement.

From the bathroom, to the hallway, to moments where I was preparing while dining solo (one evening), to the messages sent via social media (LI & Instagram) the number of individuals who stopped me to share their story or ask for further help, or to say that the content might actually save their 26-year-old marriage (!) was, and continues to be, more meaningful than I can express.

This is why I do this work: because of the potential (and impact) this work, when truly leveraged, has to transform leadership, lives, and relationships. To know that it’s working… that it’s landing at scale, is tremendously humbling and leaves me immeasurably grateful.

🔥The content.

Foundation Research Associates and Rise both put enormous effort into stellar lineups and content that would truly support the conference attendees. I learned so much from every session I attended, and am grateful for the work they do - and that these attendees are doing.

🔥The Energy (and Dancing!) …

I KNOW I said 3, but I couldn’t not include the dancing. Literally the energy was so high at both conferences, whether it was dancing in the hallway - or dancing during the SDoH service project packing 15,000 meals with US Health… the energy was extraordinary.
