What an incredible evening! On October 9th, the Gwen, Inc. team had the profound pleasure of connecting with a dynamic and insightful audience at the Rochester book tour stop for Your Leadership Journey: Living and Leading In and On Purpose. The energy and engagement in the room were truly uplifting, reinforcing the passion behind this journey of intentional leadership.

The event was a resounding success thanks to the generous support and dedication of several amazing partners.

A Heartfelt Thank You to Our Hosts and Partners

First, our deepest gratitude goes to Dr. Mary and the entire staff at the Legacy Drama House. Their beautiful space provided the perfect backdrop for a conversation about building a purposeful legacy. The warmth and professionalism of the Legacy Drama House made everyone feel right at home.
