Honored to return for a second year as a mentor at Nashville Business Journal’s Mentor Monday. ✍🏾✨
This year, I invited the women at my table to explore aspirations over goals — the visions that shape lifestyle shifts, impact, and the way we choose to live and lead daily.
During our conversation, one woman shared that she aspired to be where I am — coaching, speaking, and co-founding work that feels deeply aligned. In that moment, I was taken back to the version of myself 10 years ago who sat on the other side of rooms like this, dreaming, stretching, and believing that one day I would get here.
Sometimes when you arrive, you forget to pause and acknowledge how far you’ve truly come. Last night allowed me to sit in gratitude, reflection, and the quiet realization that the journey itself is part of the impact.
It also gave me permission to keep going — to push, expand, and build boldly — knowing there are women watching, believing, and being reminded that creating a life and work you love is possible.
The conversation was honest, expansive, and deeply energizing. I left inspired by the women I met and grateful for the meaningful connections formed with both mentors and mentees.
There is something powerful about women gathering in intention, possibility, and community. Grateful for the opportunity to pour back into the very spaces that once poured into me. ✨
