Find Your People

Dr. Ashley Waters with panelists Boi Carpenter, Veronica Cool, Honorable Joann Ellinghause-Jones and Mia Millette

Join us for a real-talk rockstar panel where authenticity takes the spotlight as we delve into the art of finding your people. Because finding your people – your mentors, sponsors, and advisors – can help you launch yourself to the next level, whatever next level means to you. We know that creating these relationships can sometimes feel intimidating…so our panelists will share their experiences in building relationships, especially since they now also serve as a mentor, sponsor, or advisor to someone else! Beyond the panel discussions, we invite you to introspect and scrutinize the bonds you’ve woven in your personal tapestry. Recognize those ties that uplift and empower you, as well as those that might inadvertently divert your focus. As we said, it’s all about finding your people!
