For most of my life, I was surrounded by voices telling me I had to choose - one path, one identity, one way of being. Yet when I look at the people I admire most, the ones who’ve crossed boundaries and created waves of impact, they all share one common thread: AND.

They refused to fit neatly into a box. They embraced the tension, the messiness, and the magic that comes with living in the AND, and powerful change followed.

My hope for this space, whether you’re listening to these stories on The AND Podcast or partnering with one of our incredible CX + EX leaders, is that you feel the fullness that AND can bring.

And then, that you share your story. Because the more we see it, the more it becomes our norm.

And that, my friend, is a wide-open world worth living in.
