I'm excited to share my conversation with Dr. Charisse Reese Drakeford. Dr. Drakeford is an ordained minister, entrepreneur, author, and recipient of the 2025 Presidential Lifetime Achievement Award whose career has been built around leadership and service to others.
Our discussion focused on caregiving. We had a rich conversation about the joys and challenges of caring for family, community, and ourselves.
I hope this conversation resonates with anyone who has ever found purpose—or struggled to find balance—in caring for others.
