Ragan Top Women in Communications Awards

It is such a terrific honor and means so much to me to be recognized alongside so many incredible women and inducted into Ragan’s Class of 2025 Hall of Fame.

At the event, I was asked what my advice would be to the next generation of communications professionals. My advice: mute the negative self-talk in your brain telling you what you can’t do; don’t dwell on mistakes; and when you see a need, fill a need. Finally, find your tribe – you need encouragers, truthtellers and confidantes around you who will be a good mirror for you to help you and provide a shoulder when things get tough.

Mindful Mentoring w/Tom Martin Podcast

Tom Martin believes that mentors can play a critical role in our life journey. I had a wonderful chat with Tom for his podcast about staying curious, never underestimating the importance of relationships, taking care of your network, and admitting your vulnerability.

“Her presentation style was captivating. Her content was the perfect blend of theoretical and practical application sprinkled with meaningful examples and sage wisdom.”
