Create A Movement From Chaos: How To Change The Present and The Future  

Everyone in this country is trying to get clarity on the overwhelming confusion caused by daily changes to politics, the economy, business, healthcare, education, culture and "the pillars of American society."
And it is women—specifically older women—who are organizing, enlisting male allies and taking action.

"We are beyond let’s talk about it and into a movement," says Heather Cox Richardson, Boston College History Professor, and author of the 2023 bestseller, Democracy Awakening: Notes on the State of America.
 
Power to Change Stories
The Power To Flip The Script and The Patriarchy

By Anna Fishbeyn

The moment I became a mother, expectations bombarded me: be the perfect mom, wife, and woman, all while looking good doing it. I saw how deeply gender inequity was embedded in our culture, not just in the workplace but in parenting, beauty standards, and social value.
At the playground, I noticed something striking: dads introduced themselves with job titles. "I’m a lawyer." "I’m a doctor." Moms said, "I’m a stay-at-home mom" or "working mom." Our identities were swallowed by motherhood, while men’s remained intact. That was my catalyst.

Chaos to Catalyst: How To Make Disruption Your Leadership Superpower

How are you feeling today?

If you responded "anxious," "unsure of the future," or "immobilized," you aren’t alone.

There’s constant talk about the price of eggs and the looming price increases on almost everything as a result of tariffs; or maybe the threat of tariffs is just that, a threat, and everything will be fine.  


It’s easy to feel overwhelmed.


But what if chaos isn’t the end of the road — what if it’s the beginning of your next breakthrough?
