First female mayor of Westfield, NJ. First woman in HBO’s C-Suite. Passionate advocate for the advancement of women in politics and business, who leads from the heart in how she creates meaning in her work … especially when that work is in her own back yard! In this episode we chat with Shelley Brindle, accomplished media and communications executive, who after almost 27 years at HBO, pursued a new avenue to transform and innovate how we think about community and governance. We discuss the importance of recognizing transferable skills, the pressures women place upon ourselves in claiming the title of “expert,” innovation in media and content, and the freedom of following where your heart leads. No matter how you serve your community, this is one episode you won’t want to miss!
