Episode 16
A conversation with Courtney Lockridge & Emerita Flores

Episode 15
A conversation with Lena Wilson
President & CEO, Vista Del Mar
From teen volunteer to administrator, law graduate and chief executive — the many pieces it takes to lead a nonprofit that has been making a difference for 118 years, and to keep it evolving without drifting from its mission.
Episode 14
A conversation with Renae Williams Niles
Board Member, Dance Hall of Fame
Four decades across arts leadership, grantmaking, education and board service — on defining impact beyond the usual metrics, building stronger boards, and keeping dance visible and supported for the next generation.
