Most inspiring moment
Listening to a dialogue from a group regarding knowing how to deal with loss, learning how to gain from it and lead others to rebuild from it. This forum was so strong the panel was speechless, watching the group just speak passionately about getting back on their feet from fiscal loss, brainstorming how to start anew making the plan, set concrete unwavering goals with time expectancies and realizing the results. Amazing to hear and watch!
