"Grit and Grace. One won’t let you give up and the other makes it okay to let go. You need both to succeed — especially women who face incredible odds.” Cheryle Robinson Jackson throughout her trail-blazing career, earned positions where she was either the first or the only woman and African American in senior roles in the private and public sector, civil rights and politics.
As a double outsider – a woman and African American, Cheryle Jackson knew how to fight. That is until cancer and divorce showed up hand in hand. Cheryle Jackson talks about Grace as a super power for success. She intimately shares how a life crisis helped her to discover that practicing Grace with oneself is the secret to gaining more power in your professional and personal life.
