As we celebrate Women's History Month, we recognize Regina as a national treasure trove of wisdom, authenticity, and purpose. We think this particular conversation defines the success to significance journey we hope to inspire.Her story is rich. Born in Palestine, she retells the story of the furrowed bullet that she escaped. Hear about her parents that survived the Holocaust and went on to shape Regina's dogged determination. This capitivating conversation is highlighted by Regina's warrior spirit. Her hardship and triumphs have made her strong and fearless. Her authenticity is wondrous. In this ultimate mentoring "conversation of significance" Regina underscores that we need lots of mentors, but mentorship is never sufficient. Make sure your success is measureable with metrics associated with what you want to accomplish. Remember "don't be so fixated on wearing the mantle of 'the successful woman' that you lose who you are. Never forget to enjoy the journey. Not being afraid to be ourselves draws others to us, but it also makes for a better life."In Regina's book, Innovating in Healthcare: Creating Breakthrough Services, Products and Business Models (Wiley, 2024), you will get the message to think big and be an equal opportunity disrupter.

Be mission driven and forceful. And when you hit a dead end, move on quickly. Listen carefully to this. "Don't be a mother." Regina isn't suggesting women shouldn't have children. Her and her husband have two. What Regina means is that women present in a maternal way, concerned more with coaching and support than mission. In 40 minutes, you will fall in love with Regina E.
