Stepping away for the Leadership Middle Tennessee (LMT) Class of 2027 Opening Retreat was a profound, grounding reminder that impactful leadership always starts with self-awareness.

Our overarching cohort theme is Humble Leadership, and putting that lens over my own leadership style brought such powerful clarity. It was no surprise to discover that my primary style is Energizer, complemented by my secondary styles of Collaborator and Harmonizer.

As an Energizer, my natural drive is to cast a bold vision, build momentum, and inspire high performance through positivity and passion. But pairing that drive with the principles of humble leadership gave me space to reflect on how I show up for my team, my partners, and our region:

Channeling energy to elevate, not overpower: My natural enthusiasm is a gift for building momentum, but humble leadership requires slowing down, encouraging constructive dialogue, and ensuring everyone feels heard and valued.

Blending vision with harmony: Leaning into my Collaborator and Harmonizer styles allows me to pair big-picture strategic thinking with operational care, psychological safety, and a team-first ethos.

Balancing confidence with groundedness: I found a quote on LinkedIn earlier this week which inspired me to write this post because it anchored this entire reflection for me: "Humble enough to know that I can be replaced. Confident enough to know that there is no one like me."

Real leadership isn't about having all the answers or holding the loudest microphone—it’s about creating an environment of trust, altruism, and shared purpose where everyone can thrive.

Immensely grateful to Pat Lawson, Dr. Trish "Doc" Holliday, the Holliday Kenning team, and my remarkable LMT Class of 2027 classmates for creating such a candid, transformational space. I'm energized for the journey ahead as we work together to build a stronger Middle Tennessee! 🚀

Imagine an entire neighborhood without a grocery store. That's a food desert. Millions face this. But what if the solution was as simple as roots? Look at this incredible story from Atlanta! This isn't just a park; it's a real "grocery store with roots" that combats hunger at its source. We need more of this! Urban Food Forest at Browns Mill.

My amazing weekend was spent focused on financial wellness at the Wine, Women & Wisdom Wealth Summit, presented by Old National Bank. This event was an incredible space for women to have real, naturally occurring conversations about wealth.

Some of my favorite highlights included:

Rita Mitchell of Studio Bank was a fabulous MC, keeping the day moving perfectly.

The fireside chat with Mignon Francois, Founder and CEO of The Cupcake Collection, was both revealing and spiritually uplifting. She is a true inspiration!

Amanda Weeks of 1834 Wealth Management (a division of Old National) delivered an interactive and highly informative breakout session on trusts, succession planning, and family wealth protection.

The content was so impactful that I already have a feeling I'll be building a long-term relationship with Old National after our upcoming lunch!

Thank you, Angela Crane Jones, President & CEO of the Nashville Business Incubation Center (NBIC), for putting together such an empowering day at the National Museum of African American Music. I’m already looking forward to the next one!

This was truly a Power Panel at Part 1 of the Metro Budget 101 Series hosted by District 2 Council Member Kyonzté Toombs! She did a great job putting together an informative panel that really helped demystify the city’s $3.8 billion operating budget and how the Metro Council amends it to reflect our city’s priorities. For me, the breakout speaker of the day was Vivian M. Wilhoite, the Assessor of Property. She is a ray of energetic sunshine encompassed in one person! I definitely won’t forget “Value Vivian.” She gave an excellent overview of the property assessment process, how her office operates, and the importance of valuing your property. She even fielded questions on the impact of commercial properties. Panel Speakers included: Finance Director, Jeneen Reed, Deputy Finance Director, Kevin Brown and District 19 Council Member Jacob Kupin.
Since this session was held at the Nashville Public Library, I stopped at the Seed Exchange and checked out some yellow squash and carrots for planting. If you want to be more well-versed in Metro's finances, I highly recommend attending the rest of this 4-part series! Here are the upcoming sessions:
