I’m honored to be part of the 2025 Beacon of Hope Mission Event in South Africa and to join incredible leaders like Dr. Stephanie Fletcher-Lartey, Da’Neela Govender, and organizers Kelly Markey and Michelle Jewlal. Thinking about this event got me reflecting on what we can learn from people who show up fully, lead with heart, and create real impact.
Here’s what stood out to me:
- Leadership isn’t just about strategy; it’s about connection and empathy.
 - Empowerment grows when you share your story and listen to others.
 - Change happens when small actions ripple through communities.
 
I’m proud to contribute workshops on storytelling and personal empowerment alongside colleagues from around the world. It’s a reminder that showing up, sharing what you know, and engaging with others authentically is how transformation happens.
