You can’t. No brand is ever truly “apolitical.” On social media, every choice is political: – Not fact-checking – Not banning accounts – Not moderating content Inaction isn’t neutral. It’s just the illusion of it. www-cnbc-com.cdn.ampproject.org/c/s/www.cnbc.c…

It’s truly an honor to be selected for Empower Cohort 8. Looking forward to spending the next 10 months with this exceptional group of women. Thank you Dayton Area Chamber of Commerce for a great opening retreat!

🎓 The next gen of policy leaders is sharp. University of Dayton PoliSci students asked: 💼 How did you start your firm? ⚖️ Has law helped you outside the courtroom? 💡 When do you know it’s time to pivot? Their curiosity = hope for the future. Be prepared. Be intentional. Be open.

Congratulations to the Humane Society of Greater Dayton on a successful 34th Annual Pet Afflaire Gala! 🐾✨ For 123+ years, they’ve been a cornerstone of compassion and advocacy for animals. A night of generosity, purpose, and joy… and of course, Truffle was the perfect guest.

Delivered my keynote “Do It Afraid” at the WiBN Leadership Conference yesterday. My core message: fear isn’t a stop sign - it’s a green light for growth. When you push past fear, you don’t just change your life, you show others they can change theirs too✨ #wibnconf2025

If fear feels loud right now… it might mean you’re standing on the edge of your next breakthrough ✨ #Motivation
