This week, Lorie Jones sits down with Amber F. McReynolds, a leader who has redefined what it means to serve, from steering election reform to her pivotal role as the board chair of the U.S. Postal Service. Amber's journey began in a small Illinois town, shaped by strong family values, a tireless work ethic, and her grandmothers who advocated for civic engagement and the right to vote.
Amber shares how dedication, resilience, and a spirit of service can lead to extraordinary impact. She opens up about facing career challenges, redefining success as a woman in leadership, using her voice for change, the investments that shaped her journey, and how she overcame adversity.
Join them for wisdom on balancing career and family, the importance of mentorship, and practical advice for young women poised to make their mark. You don't have to be an elected official to make a difference. Let's be fearless.
