Brace yourself... I'm getting vulnerable.

Life is full of transitions – some expected, others sudden – but all have the potential to shape us in profound ways. In this episode of the Behind the Spotlight podcast, I share my personal journey through significant transitions and how these experiences inspired me to create the Rise and Thrive Conference. This event has become a powerful movement aimed at empowering women through storytelling, community, and intentional living.

In this episode, I discuss the following:

• Power of Transitions
• Creating Community
• Inception of Rise & Thrive
• Empowering Through Storytelling
• Intentional Living

The Rise and Thrive Conference is more than just an event – it’s a movement that encourages women to embrace their transitions, share their stories, and rise to their fullest potential. My journey and commitment to empowering others through intentional living serve as a powerful reminder that the answers we seek are often already within us. By coming together and supporting each other, we can all rise and thrive.
