Who am I?
In a world increasingly marked by fragmentation and noise, The Gist of It illuminates the inner architecture of human connection — the practices that help relationships breathe rather than tighten, deepen rather than fracture.
At the heart of this work is relational courage: the courage to be known and to know others, to hold boundaries with clarity and kindness, to stay present when life grows uncertain, and to lead, love, and live with cupped hands and open heart.
My bio includes creating, designing, and leading university executive programs, publishing widely in professional articles and books, and extensive teaching and public speaking.
Best-selling author of The Extraordinary Power of Leader Humility
What will you gain?
Through story and reflection, I invite you to cultivate the capacity to hold boundaries with clarity and kindness, to stay present when life grows uncertain, and to lead, love, and live with cupped hands and open heart.
This series is for anyone who longs for connections that are honest, resilient, and humane — in friendship, in leadership, in family, and in community.
