Today, Kami Guildner is joined by Lora Cheadle, a dear friend and longtime emcee of the Extraordinary Women Ignite Conference. Lora brings a unique and thoughtful perspective to this moment as an attorney, speaker, and coach, as well as through her ability to channel a body of wisdom known as The Librarians—offering insight into what is happening in our world right now and what leaders are being asked to step into.
In this conversation, they explore what Lora is hearing, what this season of recalibration is asking of women, and how women can begin to trust themselves more deeply as they navigate what’s ahead.
For those who have been feeling that something is shifting and are ready to listen more closely to what is calling them forward, this conversation meets them right there.
