Create Something Unexpected

Let’s have a conversation about creativity. The kind of creativity that takes you back to the playground where make-believe was celebrated, finding new friends was easy, and the craziest ideas were the best ideas. It’s not arts and crafts — it’s brilliant free thinking that creates something unexpected and …

  • encourages your boldest ideas to be expressed without fear of being shut down.
  • leads to wild innovation moving you in a direction no one saw coming.
  • boosts confidence so you know your contribution is paramount.

Mary will guide you through three signature concepts that will ignite creativity, craft the extraordinary, & create something unexpected.

Culture of Women

Do we celebrate women for their unique achievements, or reward a singular success? Do we applaud individuality, or encourage conformity? The answers lie in the language we use, the actions we take, and the support we show for each other.

We will explore the winding paths women’s careers travel and discuss the confidence challenges that began in youth. We will work together to create a culture of women and elevate each other to extend that culture beyond the room where we sit. This is the beginning of a movement to bring empowering strategies into the places women thrive; today, into tomorrow, and for years to come.
