The talk is live. And people are sharing what it meant to them.
These are real responses from people who watched my TEDx talk — "Who Knows the Real You? When Success Becomes a Mask."
One person said it made them look deep inside themselves.
Another said learning to build community as a leader was something they desperately needed but were never taught.
That second one stopped me. Because that's exactly why I gave this talk.
We are handed scripts about achievement, self-sufficiency, and watching out for people.
But no one teaches us how to find the right ones.
If you haven't watched it yet, now you have four reasons to.

MY TEDx TALK IS LIVE.

Who actually knows the real you?
I'm not talking about your title. Not your accomplishments. Not the representative that you send to meetings and deliver results.

You.

This is the question behind my TEDx talk.

After years of working with leaders and living it myself, I've seen something clearly:

You can be surrounded... and still be completely unknown.

At some point, many high achievers realize: They've built success, but lost connection to themselves along the way.

This talk is an invitation to slow down and look at that honestly.

Your network is full. Your table might be empty.

There's a difference between the people you know and the people who actually show up for you.
The ones who challenge your thinking. Hold you accountable. Stay when things get real.
That's the circle most high-achieving women are missing — and it's exactly what The RENEW Circle™ Build Your Table cycle is designed to help you create.

This is a 90-day live experience for women who are winning in the world but know something's missing in their circle.

Here's what we'll work through together:
✅ Set your table with intention, not obligation
✅ Release the guests who've overstayed their welcome
✅ Make room for women who sharpen your thinking and your courage
✅ Stop waiting to be invited — host your own growth
✅ Learn to nourish yourself so you can show up fully
✅ Clear the empty chairs you've been afraid to fill

Live via Zoom | Bi-weekly Wednesdays | 7:30–9:00 PM EST
Starts April 8th | 90-Day Experience

Space is limited.
If you've been sitting at a table that no longer feeds you — this is your invitation to build a new one.

Yesterday, I had the pleasure of working with 140 leaders from the Connecticut Department of Transportation on The 5 Commitments to Leading Without Losing You™. Thanks to Jackie Primeau and team for hosting an excellent event.

Today’s leaders are managing operational pressure, safety, and employee engagement—yet there are no real operating procedures for the leader.
How do you think clearly under pressure? Lead people without burning out? Make decisions without losing yourself? That’s the gap this work addresses.

And to be clear—this is not “soft skills.” This is leadership work directly tied to:
• quality control
• safety outcomes
• innovation
• change management
• performance

If your organization is serious about results, you have to be serious about how your leaders are operating.
I partner with organizations ready to strengthen leadership from the inside out.

In 1994, my parents thought I was throwing away a prestigious IBM Watson Foundation Fellowship. I was heading to five Caribbean islands to study political commentary in Calypso music. Not the Soca you hear at carnivals, the older tradition.

My parents wanted me to do something serious. They didn't realize I was.

Those singers were the people's newspaper, using song to hold power accountable for social injustice, inequality, and oppression when no other voice could.

I didn't know it then, but I was studying leadership.

Thirty years later, I walk into Fortune 500 boardrooms and government ministries using everything those singers taught me. But the deepest lesson took longest to learn. The Calypsonian was never alone up there. They needed the crowd. Fed off them. Was made braver by them.

The organizations struggling most right now aren't struggling with strategy. They're struggling with leaders who've lost themselves in the pursuit of results.

The women I work with through The RENEW Experience know this truth: learning to need their community has been their greatest act of courage.

This Sunday, I take the TEDx stage with a question thirty years in the making:

Who Knows the Real You?

My parents came around eventually. 😄

Our CEO will be speaking at TEDX. check out her story

People come into your life for different reasons.

Last summer, with just a few weeks before I hosted The RENEW Experience™, Dr. Stephanie Knuppenberg filled an unexpected last-minute speaker slot with a simple offer to be of service. We took her up on it, and she WOWED the audience.

A few months ago, she called and asked why I hadn't done a TEDx talk yet. I was driving and told her I'd look up the options when I got home. That wasn't good enough for her. As I drove, she did a quick Google search and found that TEDx Lake Worth Beach applications had just opened. She immediately texted me the info with a simple directive: "Now Do It." It was a directive, not a suggestion.

Here we are a month later, and I was selected to speak. And yes, Dr. Stephanie has already bought her ticket and will be front and center cheering me on.

Find your Dr. Stephanie, or be a Dr. Stephanie to someone else. I'm thankful for this growing village I'm building.

Come hear me speak on March 8th. I'm in the afternoon session, alongside many other exceptional speakers presenting their ideas throughout the day.

Purchase your tickets early. This will sell out.
