Reflection/Why I’m Grateful:

 Today I met with one of the most dynamic leaders in our region—someone I’ve known for nearly two decades. Her rise has been inspiring. Our conversation was refreshingly authentic. From her candid response to my question—"Is the top spot all you thought it would be?"—to our strategic reflections on serving people with fewer material possessions, I was reminded how leadership and heart go hand in hand.
