Dear Reader, The Intentional Pursuit of Inspiration. Today, my inspiration comes from an extraordinary young mother. Her story is most likely shared by many. When she married shortly after high school, many assumed that meant giving up her immediate goal of finishing college in four years. Undeterred, she embarked on a journey of resilience and determination. Five years later, while having two children, she proved the doubters wrong. Not only did she earn her bachelor's degree in 3 1/2 years, but she's now on the brink of receiving her master's. Her story is a reminder that no matter the obstacles we face, extraordinary feats are within reach. Her journey fuels my belief that each day promises something remarkably good. As I carry this inspiration with me, I'm eager to share this hope with others, igniting a ripple effect of positivity and possibility. In the end, it's not just about finding inspiration; it's about spreading it, nurturing it, and using it to fuel the fires of hope in the hearts of those around us. I am inspired, and I will pay it forward, knowing that the smallest act of encouragement can spark the greatest transformations.

Current Event: Neurodiversity Masterclass Come join us on July 8th at 11:45 AM (Arizona Time) for our virtual Masterclass led by Renee Rosales & Julie Lancaster; Cultivating Neurodiversity in the Workplace. Did you know that approximately 15-20% of the global population is estimated to be neurodivergent? Neurodiversity is the concept that neurological differences, such as autism, ADHD, and dyslexia, are natural variations of the human brain and should be recognized and respected as part of human diversity. It is crucial to recognize neurodiversity and empower those who are neurodiverse.

Dear Reader, Over the last few months, I have had a chance to collaborate with some incredible individuals in the diversity & inclusion space (D&I). I am always hungry to learn more here, and I have a real fear of “messing up” that I actively try to overcome.
