Reflect, Release, Rise: Turn 2025 Insight into 2026 Impact

As we approach the close of 2025, now is the perfect moment to pause, breathe, and reflect with intention. Before we sprint into new goals or declare bold resolutions, meaningful growth begins by honoring where we’ve been. In a world that keeps accelerating, reflection becomes a radical act of leadership. It helps us see the full picture—our progress, our patterns, our power, and yes, even our pain—so we can step into the next season with clarity. Start by celebrating what [...]

When Change Feels Heavy: Overcoming Change Fatigue

You’ve heard me say it before—change needs a catalyst. But sometimes, even the best catalysts get tired. When our workplaces, teams, or even personal lives are in constant motion—new systems, new leaders, new expectations—it can start to feel like the finish line keeps moving. That exhaustion you feel? That’s called change fatigue. Change fatigue shows up when individuals and teams become weary of continual transformation. It’s not that people are resistant to change—it’s that they’re exhausted by it. Imagine trying [...]

From Pivot to Power: Reinventing Leadership at Life’s Hard Intersections

Sometimes leadership lessons come from boardrooms and strategy sessions—but the most powerful ones? They’re born in the hard seasons. Last week, I joined Dzikamai Gangaidzo on The Shameless (T4L) Podcast for an open, honest conversation about what it really means to lead through life’s intersections—those unexpected detours that challenge who we are and how we show up. We talked about the difference between toxic resilience (just “pushing through”) and true resilience—the kind that allows you to bend without breaking. I [...]

From Inner Critic to Inner Coach: Reframing the Voice Within

We all carry a voice within us — that persistent inner monologue that often tells us we're not good enough, smart enough, or talented enough to pursue what we truly desire. For many of us, especially women navigating leadership, entrepreneurship, and personal growth, this "inner critic" can be the loudest voice in the room. But what if I told you that this inner critic could also be your inner coach? What if, instead of silencing it or letting it hold [...]

There Is No Playbook For Grief

Grief is both a universal and deeply personal experience. We will all experience grief in our lifetimes — that is guaranteed. The impact it has, how we process it, what happens beyond the grief — that is different for everyone. […]

An Important Letter for Racial Reconciliation

The events of this summer have moved me to my core. So I did what I do, I reached for my pen. Here’s an excerpt from my new book collaboration A Collective Breath. Dear White Christians, I love you, and God loves you; but He needs you to understand some things. I need you to understand some things: 1. It is not (insert the name of a Black person you know)’s responsibility to educate you on the history of [...]

We Honored His Wishes But Broke Their Hearts

When my boys were young, they loved to climb up and down each other...isn't that just like boys? If they weren't climbing, they were balancing or just rolling on the floor. With four of them, there was no shortage of playmates, and my husband and I enjoyed countless hours of watching (and participating in) their playfulness. It created a bond that could never be broken. On January 11, 2014, that bond was tested. After 3 battles with cancer in 3 [...]
