SUMMARY:UB Women St. Louis Gathering with Cindy Erickson of the Red Cross
DESCRIPTION:Cindy Erickson is no stranger to adversity.  As Chief Executive Officer (CEO) of the American Red Cross of Missouri and Arkansas\, floods\, fires\, tornados and natural disasters are realities she faces on the job.  Join us as Cindy shares how she takes adversity – her own and others’ — and weaves it with her strong Christian faith to forge work ethics and principles that are truly unconventional. \nCindy’s career at the Red Cross began in 2009\, as the CEO of the St. Louis Chapter.  During her tenure\, she has helped navigate organizational restructurings\, mergers\, and regional realignments.  Today\, Cindy oversees a $28 million budget\, one of the largest Red Cross organizations in the country and is responsible for Red Cross services in the city of St. Louis and 199 surrounding Missouri and Arkansas counties. \n“Part of our job at the American Red Cross is to provide hope and help to people who have lost everything\,” Cindy says.  She credits her upbringing with giving her the compassion necessary to face these types of challenges.  “I was raised in a family where service for others was really a part of the fabric of my family.” \nProviding opportunities for people to help other people in times of crisis also gives Cindy great joy.  One of her favorite memories is of keeping her office open all night and responding to a fire call with her Disaster Action Team during a major snowstorm.  Fortunately\, all were safe and her crew was able to provide much welcomed assistance and shelter to the families. \nJoin us on Monday\, November 4th\, to hear Cindy talk about facing adversity – in the workplace and in life – with trust\, courage and compassion.  You’ll be inspired by her unconventional story!

SUMMARY:UB Women KC Gathering with GateWay of Hope's Dacia Moore
DESCRIPTION:Dacia Moore has come to appreciate the little accomplishments in her life.  The national speaker\, trainer\, author\, business owner and now Executive Director of GateWay of Hope Women’s Center has made quite a few of them during her life and career. And while she has experienced some restlessness in her “small” accomplishments\, Dacia knows that they are paving the way to her bigger purpose: glorifying God in her life\, faith\, and career.  Join us as Dacia shares her unconventional career journey\, and how trusting in God as a faithforward businesswoman has helped her appreciate that small accomplishments are rich in purpose.   \nDacia’s career at GateWay of Hope began in 2015\, after running a successful small business for ten years\, Second Wind Counseling and Consulting\, in Kansas City\, Missouri.  She has served as an adjunct professor at the Metropolitan Community Colleges and Webster University.  She is also a National Board Certified Counselor and a Licensed Professional Counselor in Missouri.   \n“As women\, we want to accomplish big things in our careers\,” Dacia says.  “We have to recognize that it’s the small accomplishments that matter.”   \nOnce recruited by GateWay of Hope to take the organization to its next level of growth\, Dacia experienced many challenges and changes\, which she faced with prayer\, fasting\, discernment and scripture meditation.  “I trusted God with the small stuff.  He placed me in this role.  And I knew He was going to achieve His purposes.” \nGateWay of Hope is a non-profit\, Christian based counseling center\, where licensed counselors and life coaches provide a safe\, caring\, healing environment for women experiencing mental health issues including depression\, anxiety and relationship issues.   \nWhat Dacia likes most about her job is strengthening women in their faith so that they can be better mothers\, spouses and stronger women. “I believe we are all Christian warriors and have to learn how to fight against the attack of the enemy in our minds.  The battlefield truly is the mind.” \nJoin us on Thursday\, November 7th at 5:30 p.m. to hear Dacia discuss walking your career path with confidence and trust in God.  You’ll be inspired by her unconventional story!
