What an incredible way to wrap up our 2025 #100WiseWomen series! We had the honor of hearing from Kate Latts, Co-President of Heaven Hill Brands, who shared her words of wisdom on authentic leadership through four key insights: clear the clutter, shine where you are strongest, beat your blind spots, and find your fuel. Her journey and guidance left a lasting impact on everyone in the room. 100 Wise Women is all about bringing women together to share experiences, spark meaningful conversations, and leave feeling motivated and connected. A huge thank you to our presenting sponsor Chase, our incredible table hosts, and everyone who joined us to make this morning and this entire year so fabulous and special! We're so grateful for this amazing community and can't wait to see you all next year at the 100 Wise Women Series! 💜⚜️ #100ww #leadershiplouisville #everythinglouisville #womeninleadership #louisvilleky

Hey alumni, we've got a Leadership Louisville class trying to claim the title of 'Best Class Ever!' The Leadership Louisville Class of 2025 hosted a reunion and then went all in on giving back by organizing a food drive for local ministries. The result? ~820 lbs of food donated! Bragging rights: still up for grabs, but honestly… they might have a case. 😉 https://bit.ly/4p2d7j2 #leadershiplouisville #bestclassever #everythinglouisville #louisvilleky Jim Trujillo, CFP® PPC® Jillian Cantu Marcus Davis Kilen K.
