  • What do you see as emerging as action priorities for the WSFYLC ? 
In this moment I see our main actions as revolving around reaching out to women of our age and younger, who are struggling to find hope and a solution. How will we do this? As we collaboratively discuss a new vision of collaborative and feminine leadership, we will then be able to take these ideas out into the world. This enactment of a different way will draw others to us. 
  • What are you hoping to offer as a member of the WSFYLC?
I'm not afraid to speak to a crowd, I'm good at summarising ideas and then articulating them in ways that are inspiring and easy to understand. I bring a passion for change and the belief that a different world is entirely possible. Through my teaching I have already been in a position to help women younger than myself, and have learned that much of what they need is a role model who believes in herself and the power of collective love to change the world. 
  • What are you seeking to gain, experience or learn as a member of the WSFYLC?
I want to learn how to collaborate better; how to move forward as one-amongst-many. I can be very isolated if i'm not careful, believing that I'm the one who needs to GET IT DONE! ;-)
Having been at the conference in San Francisco, I also expect to find incredible bonds with women who share a common focus and mindset.
