<p><strong>The Courage to Change: Embracing Uncertainty with Purpose, Roundtable Discussion</strong></p><p>Change isn’t easy.

In this roundtable conversation, I sat down with Dr. Pamela Moss, LeeAnn Mallorie, Crina Ancuta, Angela Nesbitt, and Jo Meadwell to explore what it really takes to navigate change with courage and purpose.</p><p>We talked about the moments that challenge us most—when life asks us to step into something new before we feel ready.
