Here we are in a new year…2025! As we start this year, I have been thinking alot about what is ahead, and know many of you are as well.  In today’s episode, I wanted to share with you some of my reflections and why it’s important to talk about. I dive into why Rebel Leadership matters more than ever as we step into a new year filled with so much uncertainty about our leadership and where it might lead us. If you know me, you know I’m passionate about standing up for belonging and inclusion—values that are my foundation. Today, I want to talk about the kind of leadership we truly need, not just in business but across every part of our society – especially NOW. I’ll share some thoughts that will hopefully make you think, reflect, and feel inspired to play your part in redefining and re-shaping  a leadership model that’s transformative and inclusive. So, grab your favorite drink, get comfortable, and let’s talk about what it means to be a rebel leader in today’s reality.
