Shalia Ford: Transforming Trauma Into Triumph

“I think that what I’m able to do in the program is to create the brave space that women need to be vulnerable, to do the internal work that has to happen, to have great and deep, thoughtful, reflective conversations, to bring in a lot of other great women. But at the end of it, that she’s breaking out of that chrysalis and she’s got her wings.”

Sara Stock: Making a Bold Career Pivot

As lawyers, we’re expected to have all the answers and be right 1000% of the time…Actually, we are humans. We are going to make mistakes. It’s actually a beautiful opportunity, when we make a mistake, to show up for our clients in the right way, own those mistakes, and then fix them on our dime. It’s really that simple. You actually deepen a relationship.

Kelley Lamm: Break Negativity, Build Success

“Breaking free from negativity isn’t about ignoring the bad, but about choosing not to let it control you. It’s about building resilience and finding ways to rise above the challenges life throws at you.”

Amy D. Post: Out of the Gray Into the Light

“The physician came in and he was just white as a sheet and said, I’m sorry to tell you this, but your daughter has malignant liver cancer. It’s hepatoblastoma of the liver and it’s stage three, stage four hepatoblastoma. And we’ve got a room ready for her. We have chemotherapy already. We have transfusions ready. She’s going to need a liver transplant and you have to get up there immediately. And I had my purse and the clothes on my back and were whisked into the healthcare system. And that’s when those moments just flushed through me that our life had forever changed.”

Johanna Schuessler: The Magic of Adventure Unknown

“Adventure Unknown is a coworking space and social club designed to bring like-minded people together through unique travel experiences. We wanted it to be elevated and seemingly luxurious, combining work with social events and travel.”
