Here are 3 key takeaways from our conversation: 1️⃣ Purpose is often born out of pain.Diana went from personal trauma and adversity to finding a deep sense of purpose, first for herself and later in creating educational systems for overlooked children. 2️⃣ Self-leadership is foundational.Before leading others, Diana had to take control of her own life, health, and environment, a powerful reminder that true leadership starts within. 3️⃣ Reinvention can happen at any stage.Whether building a school, starting anew after her kids left home, or earning her MBA at 51, Diana embodies the idea that it’s never too late to reinvent your life or career. Finding a love partner who embraced her without regard for the past was also a catalyst for Diana to attack her dreams with unrelenting passion and purpose.
