October's favorites are more about looking forward to November than reflecting on the learnings of October. It is about recognizing and honoring those with lung cancer and becoming more aware of how we speak to those with cancer. And it is how we can teach our future leaders to reframe traditional roles - in business and in life.

November is Lung Cancer Awareness Month. Given my family history of lung cancer, it is important for me to do what I can to raise awareness. This also includes being more aware of how we talk about a person's cancer - by following their lead. 

In closing, I reflect on Brene Brown's conversation with Abby Wambach and the role-reframing she presents in the book Wolfpack.
