Linking the context of learning
I use my blog as a space for learning and reflection. Today, I was asked to write about what I know, and it brought me to sitting here, slowing down to reflect about how much the support systems around us shape our perspectives. My first and most important mentor was my mother, also a woman entrepreneur out to change the world. Interestingly, it is now in my life when I choose to look particularly for guidance and stories about women leaders. I am now reading the book, Women on Top.
It is a curious thing to see how I shape the work of my life through the choices of ecosystems that I participate in. I am also having fun with Twitter. As a life mission, I work on problems related to the people side of sustainability, where we need new thinking, new models, and new tools. Seeking to address these issues has led me into wide deep collaborations with many amazing men and women and their pioneering work. To honor them here….
