Resilience

At a time when uncertainty seems to cloud every horizon, we believe that resilience is not just a buzzword—it’s a beacon. Resilience is the ability to bounce back, to adapt, to push forward even when the path ahead is unclear. It's the courage to take the leap, the strength to withstand setbacks, and the vision to transform challenges into opportunities.

This month, we celebrate those who embody resilience and use it to fuel their impact on the world.

We begin with Greg Hegger, who left behind the security of a corporate career to launch Fox Fold, a company revolutionizing the toilet paper industry. With a young family at home, Greg's journey into entrepreneurialism is a testament to the power of bold decisions and relentless determination.

Next Cameron Jones, the co-founder of Flash Forest, who took a leap from corporate life to confront the colossal environmental challenge of deforestation using cutting-edge technology. Cameron’s journey is a testament to how having a deep-rooted sense of purpose can fuel the resilience needed to navigate the relentless uncertainties that come with tackling climate change. His story reminds us that when you align with a mission greater than yourself, the path forward, no matter how daunting, becomes one worth pursuing.

We also shine a spotlight on Janet Kestin and Nancy Vonk, two trailblazers who shattered the glass ceiling in the advertising world. Their journey is not just about breaking barriers; it's about empowering the next generation of women to take the lead in an industry that desperately needs their voices.

Finally, we close with a thought-provoking piece on the power of words—especially when it comes to offering unsolicited advice. In a world overflowing with opinions, how can we choose words that uplift rather than weigh down?

Throughout this month, you'll find inspiring stories, actionable insights, and the encouragement you need to harness your agency and make an impact. Our hope is that these stories will not only inspire you but also challenge you to share them with others, sparking a ripple effect of positive change.

Thank you for joining us on this journey. Let's go out and make an impact.

With purpose,
