The Interchurch Gala brought the right people into the room. Coincidentally I saw one of my Sorority sisters, who I’ve known since college.

Congratulations to the honorees and to the new CEO, leadership transitions like this define our work and what comes next.

Most organizations don’t lack vision. They lack alignment and disciplined ex*****on. That’s where the work is and how we support leaders.

Retreats and strategic planning only matter if they drive decisions, shift behavior, and move the organization forward in a real way.

That’s the space we operate in, helping leadership teams get aligned and execute with intention.

Because potential is everywhere.
Ex*****on is not.

It’s National Small Business Week, how can you patronize a small business? It is an intentional decision, a choice and opportunity to get exactly what you ask for. Quality service.

There’s a difference between being in a room and being in the right room.

This Women’s History Month, being back with the Fund alumni community at was a reminder of what real community capital looks like.

Not surface-level connection.
Not exchanging business cards.

But being in proximity to women who are building, scaling, questioning, and evolving in real time.

I’ve been looking forward to diving into The Science of Scaling by Dr. Benjamin Hardy gifted to us, and the conversation in the room matched that energy what does it actually take to grow something that lasts, without losing the essence of why you started?

Friend and strategic partner said something that stayed with me, not as a quote to repeat, but as a reminder of how important it is to stay grounded in who you are and keep persevering, she was one of the first people I shared my entrepreneurial vision with back in 2017.

And hearing Erica of Reign Ventures speak reinforced something I’ve seen over and over again building something that matters to you is not optional. It’s the only way the work sustains.

That’s the real return on community.

It sharpens how you think.
It challenges how you move.
And it keeps you honest about what you’re building and why.

The rooms you choose matter or reinforce where you are, pay attention to your choices and always pay it forward.

Earlier this week I attended the Women’s History Month program, “All in on HERstory” hosted at The Town Hall in New York City by .

Hearing leaders like Netta Jenkins, and Nnenna Lynch and especially speak about their experiences navigating change and leading unapologetically reminded me that advocacy starts with a steady commitment to the work you believe in while bringing others to the table.

For me, moments like this reinforce why I value experiences as places where real leadership learning happens. Put people in an environment where they have to listen, respond, and collaborate in real time, whether that’s on a stage, on a race course, or even on a golf course, and you begin to see how leadership actually shows up. Or where it fails to.

Women’s History Month reminds us that the story is still being written in rooms like this, through the experiences we share and the communities we continue to build.

Entrepreneurship can make it easy to forget something simple: your health is the real performance strategy.

Recently I spent time at at the (Lotte Palace Hotel), exploring a few technologies I have not seen before like red light therapy, robot massage, PEMF therapy, and even a brain gym lounger. If you enjoy sci-fi, this place will feel like stepping into the future.

What stood out most wasn’t the technology, it was the reminder that recovery is part of the work.

Golf teaches me this lesson quietly and often. The best players understand that performance is not just about practice and competition, it’s about rest, clarity, and maintaining your physical and mental edge before the season begins. I heard that James uses the chamber, he’s LJ too and an aspiring golfer, so I had to indulge.

The other benefit of showing up in spaces like this? Community.

It was great reconnecting with event host Nkrumah, someone who understands that relationships are built in many places, not just conference rooms.

The most strategic thing I have done is pause long enough to reset.

In business and in golf, longevity belongs to the people who learn how to recover well. My favorite was the relaxation chair, simple and easy.

On this International Women’s Day, I’ve been thinking about the power of small decisions.

As a female entrepreneur, I’ve seen how much it matters when someone chooses to work with a woman, trust a woman with a project, or invite a woman into the room where decisions are made.

Sometimes those choices feel easy. Sometimes they feel unfamiliar. Sometimes they even feel a little uncomfortable.

Every time someone leans in and makes that choice anyway, it creates opportunity, builds confidence, and changes the landscape for the next woman.

Progress doesn’t only happen through big moments. It happens through everyday decisions.

The greatest decision I’ve made was choosing my vision and sharing it with the world, I’m grateful for the women building, leading, creating, and showing up with courage.

For everyone who chooses to support us, both men and other women, thank you.

I spent time this week at a conversation hosted by the New York State Black Business Alliance on AI, held at Civic Hall in NYC, a unique space that feels built for exactly these kinds of discussions. Technology, policy, operators, founders all intersecting in one room.

The session was delivered by Tanya Freeman, Esq. and a fireside chat with Gary Mann, was moderated by John Harmon, the visionary behind .

It wasn’t hype-driven.
It wasn’t fear-driven either.

It was steady.

The questions were practical:
How do we accelerate growth without increasing regulatory exposure?
Where does AI truly create operational value?
How do we apply it responsibly across industries that are already complex?

It felt like a room of adults having an adult conversation.

In my world, whether we’re implementing ERP systems, facilitating executive retreats, or navigating cultural transformation, the issue is rarely the tool itself. It’s leadership readiness. Alignment. Governance. Discipline.

AI will be no different.

Technology amplifies whatever culture already exists. If your leadership is fragmented, it will expose that. If your values are unclear, it will test that.

I also ran into a friend whose work centers on sound baths, and I smiled at the contrast. AI and sound healing seem worlds apart, yet both are about regulation, one of systems, the other of nervous systems. Both require intention. Both can be powerful when integrated responsibly.

Civic Hall was the right setting for that reminder.

Innovation is not just about speed.
It’s about stewardship.

Join us on YouTube & LinkedIn for another episode of “Any Given Monday”

Out topic is a personal one,
BUILDING RELATIONSHIP EQUITY:
How Leaders Navigate Differences & Protect Their Reputation

Reputation isn’t built in agreement.
It’s built in how you handle disagreement.
We have learned this lesson repeatedly and maybe our insight can serve as inspiration or a cautionary tale.

In rooms where stakes are high and perspectives differ, leaders are remembered for:

• Their composure
• Their clarity
• Their ability to focus on the mission, not the ego

Networking might get you in the room.
But stewardship? It’s helps you attract like-minded professionals.

Relationship equity is accumulated trust.
It’s what allows you to navigate tension without fracturing alignment.

And in complex environments, that same equity determines whether trust compounds… or erodes.

Join me live on YouTube or LinkedIn for this month’s Any Given Monday.

Last summer, I was a walking scorer at Steph Curry‘s final competition hosted at Liberty National Golf Course, and I met a young lady and her mother who drove her from DMV area to volunteer.

She is currently a high school student that plays golf competitively. I said if you’re ever in the NYC area, give me a call.

She did.

The young lady was selected to attend a program at Google on AI for high school students. As a Computer Science major myself, it was exciting to hear this is her interest. It was an honor to catch up with her for dinner and to hear about her professional goals. It’s a reminder that we have an opportunity and obligation to share wisdom. She is still committed to golf, when I look at the work we do to build leaders I know it starts with giving time and pouring into the next generation.

Walking 18 holes with us, is often an unexpected coaching session and this was my reminder, keep going.

How do you give back?

Black History Month is not just about reflection. It’s about responsibility.

I was grateful to gather at a Black History Month event hosted by .group , where legacy, leadership, and community were centered with intention.

Moments like these remind me that this work is not about competition. It is about calling. Entrepreneurship rewards good hearts and good intentions when you stay rooted in purpose and do not get distracted by what was never yours to carry.

I continue to honor , LPGA professional and owner of . Her life’s work is a blueprint for what it means to build something that outlives you. Being a blueprint is both a tremendous opportunity and a serious responsibility.

Golf has always shown me who people are early. How you start matters. How you treat others matters. Whether you collaborate or compete tells the whole story.

Thank you for the invitation and for more than 20 years of showing me what real community looks like and what is possible when doors are opened with intention.

I will keep doing my part to shed light, honor those who came before us, and open doors for those coming next. Not brand new. I’ve been that girl. Ask them.

If this resonates, stay connected. Follow along, join the conversation, and consider how you are building legacy and creating access through your own leadership.
