It’s taken me a couple of days to reflect on two incredible days at Global Impact Summit this week and I’m still feeling very full-hearted (and with a very full notebook!) 💕🌸
There’s something pretty special about being surrounded by people who genuinely want to make a difference….sharing ideas, challenging thinking and reminding each other why this work matters.
Even better was experiencing it alongside so many of our School for Life Foundation team.
There were so many moments that challenged my thinking, sparked new ideas and reminded me just how much we can learn from one another. And, as always, some of the best moments happened in the conversations in between….reconnecting with familiar faces, meeting new ones and hearing what drives people to do the work they do.
One line I keep coming back to: 💡
“Trust is still built by human relationships, one at a time. What has changed is how far it can travel.”
There’s so much to reflect on around impact, storytelling, leadership and belonging, but perhaps the biggest reminder was also the simplest….
Impact starts with people. With connection. With trust. And with the relationships we build along the way.
A huge thank you to Mike Gore Jocelyn and James for bringing together such an inspiring group of people and creating the space for these conversations, connections and ideas to happen.
Feeling incredibly grateful for the learning, the new people I met, the familiar faces I got to reconnect with, and our wonderful School for Life team who shared the experience. ❤️
Two days very well spent…..and plenty of ideas, inspiration and conversations to carry forward.
