It’s HR Week at NCCU!
It was a pleasure to meet with students and talk about the ins/outs, ups/downs and inside of HR. The students were impressive.

One year ago today, on Valentine’s Day, I launched Cheryl D. Gould Consulting as a love gift to myself… and as a reminder to always stay connected to the work I love.

This first year stretched me in ways I didn’t expect, and I’m so grateful for all of it.

In the past 12 months, I’ve had the privilege to:

• Support 5 organizations across construction, nonprofit, and behavioral health
• Partner with leadership coaching clients
• Sign multi-month fractional HR retainers
• Help leaders put real recruiting, compliance, and people practices in place

Along the way, I also:

• Started LaunchJOCO
• Was selected for TEDx (March 2026) to share my Whole, Worthy, Wise leadership framework
• Continued serving as VP, DEI for Raleigh Metro SHRM
• Balanced this work while serving as VP of HR for a nonprofit I care deeply about

To every client who trusted me with your people, your policies, and your leadership teams… thank you!

I don’t take it for granted.

Happy 1st Birthday to Cheryl D. Gould Consulting.

The road to TEDx has been a joyous journey filled with rediscovery of self and strengthening my voice. I’m grateful for this journey - the speaker lineup is out now - check it out to learn more about my TEDx topic.

Gehan "G" Haridy-Ardanowski is driven by and imparts to others the fusion of two mantras: "Why fit in when you were born to stand out?" + "Go where you're celebrated and not tolerated!"

As I look ahead to 2026, I’ve been spending time looking inward and seeking spiritual guidance for what’s next. Before rushing forward, I wanted to pause and reflect on what 2025 shaped in me.

This year stretched me in quiet but meaningful ways. New leadership roles. New work brought to life. A consulting business born from faith and follow-through. Continued purpose in serving girls and leaders through my work. Opportunities to speak, learn, and grow in rooms that mattered. None of it flashy. All of it formative.

Outside of work, this year grounded me deeply. I read the Bible cover to cover, honored my mom, celebrated family milestones, and shared meaningful moments with people I love. Travel took me to France, Rome, Spain, Mexico City, Atlanta, and Memphis, each place offering perspective, pause, and a reminder to slow down and take it all in.

Luke 12:48 reminds us, “To whom much is given, much will be required.” This year reminded me that responsibility isn’t pressure. It’s purpose. Stewardship means showing up with humility, gratitude, and courage.

As I step into the new year, I’m carrying clarity, trust, and a deeper commitment to use what I’ve been given wisely. If you were part of my journey this year in any way, THANK YOU!!Truly.

Here’s to another year of growth, grace, and faithful stewardship. 💛
