#Inclusive100 Community Roundtable

Defining Moments: Purpose, Resilience & Inclusive Leadership

In today’s hyper-polarized landscape, many industry leaders, especially those doing purpose-driven, people-centered work, are navigating one of the most challenging seasons of their careers. Resources are tighter. Expectations are higher. Progress is elusive. And the emotional labor often goes unseen and uncelebrated. In the midst of all this, it’s difficult to find momentum.

This session, guided by Judy Jackson, President, JLC Ventures, is a space to pause, reflect, and reconnect. Together, we’ll explore the defining moments that have shaped who we are … personally and professionally. Through shared stories, guided exercises, and authentic conversation, we’ll surface the experiences that clarified our values, tested our resilience, and reminded us of what really matters.

Whether you’re leading change, weathering pressure, or simply seeking inspiration, this session invites you to honor the pivotal moments that ground you, and use them to navigate what’s next.

Come ready to reflect, connect, and maybe even share a story of the defining moment that continues to guide your path.

This is a free event and open to all interested.
