Shelley Doi-Taketa
Salt Lake City, UT
Law Sector
Why I Show Up: “Everyone is dealing with struggles and hardships that we often can’t see. I want to be able to show up for those in my home, my workplace, and my community. Making the effort to connect with those around us can make a difference.”
Emily Hirshorn
Rye, NY
Finance & Higher Education Sectors
Why I Show Up: "While I have a heart for others, like many, I can get stuck in inaction and hide behind distractions as an excuse for not connecting. Instead, I want to help create a world where everyone is known, loved, and equipped to show up for one another with small but meaningful actions over the long term."
Dr. Kirsten Kasten
Menomonee Falls, WI
Higher Education Sector
Why I Show Up: “As an educator and researcher, my goal is to bring to light the very human, relational, and psychological health variables that are so important to learning and flourishing. It is imperative that greater attention in our schools and organizations is focused on supporting the well-being of both children and adults. How we support one another, show grace to one another, and interact with one another are all part of relationship skills that bring greater meaning to life, and build strong communities and cultures.”
Sarah King

Why I Show Up: “I Show Up to illuminate hope. I Show Up to hold space for organizations and businesses to have the opportunity to be on the cutting edge of creating work environments that motivate employees and aids in preventing burnout and loneliness in the workplace.”
