Yet many workplace systems and leadership expectations were not designed with the lived realities of women — especially women of color and Black women — in mind.</p> <p>Over time, the pressure to maintain constant productivity, emotional regulation, and repeatedly prove legitimacy carries a real human cost.</p> <p>This interactive lunch-hour conversation invites women of color leaders into reflection, dialogue, and connection around the realities of leadership that often remain unspoken.</p> <p>Participants will explore:</p> <ul> <li> <p>how pressure shapes leadership and decision-making</p> </li> <li> <p>the emotional dimensions of leadership</p> </li> <li> <p>sustainable approaches to leadership moving forward</p> </li> <li> <p>why more women leaders are craving honest conversations about what leadership now requires</p> </li> </ul> <h3>Facilitated By</h3> <p><strong>Kimberlee Archie</strong><br> Leadership Strategist | Organizational Advisor | Creator of Leadership Sustainability Lab™</p> <h2>Brown Bag Lunch</h2> <p>Please bring your own lunch for the Lunch &amp; Learn conversation.</p> <h2>Who Should Attend</h2> <ul> <li> <p>Entrepreneurs and founders</p> </li> <li> <p>Corporate professionals</p> </li> <li> <p>Executives and emerging leaders</p> </li> <li> <p>Consultants and creatives</p> </li> <li> <p>Women growing their visibility, leadership, and network</p> </li> </ul> <p><strong>Hosted at Tabor100</strong></p> <h1>Reserve Your Spot!</h1> <p>Come to work.<br> Leave with new connections, fresh perspective, and expanded opportunities.</p> <h2>Focused work.
