There is a path to healing. Moving from conflict to reconciliation requires two main elements, but within each, there is real work to be done.

Cup of Jo: Servant Leadership

Cup of Jo: How to Find Your Purpose by Following Your Joy

Cup of Jo: How to Find Your Purpose by Following Your Joy

I had a wonderful opportunity to sit down for a few minutes to talk with Maya Gorgoni, co-Founder of the fashion/lifestyle brand Royal Jelly Harlem. Maya is a wife, a daughter, and a mother - like many of us. But what’s more interesting is that she partnered with her mother to build her brand (totally unplanned).

I invite you to listen to our conversation and hope that you’ll be inspired to climb some of the figurative (and literal) mountains you encounter.

Our decisions and how they reflect our values, our goals, and how (and where) we spend our time are all on display for (re)consideration. Do they support the life we now know we need? Where do we begin to create the world we hope to see?
