In 2021, she was named a CEO Action for Racial Equity Fellow, one of only 250 corporate leaders across the United States who collaborates on creating solutions to advance societal racial equity through public policy.

Here’s Just a Taste of This Episode’s Talking PointsThe Need to do Something DifferentWhen Ingrid felt the need to do something different, she was at the point where she felt stuck. She grew up following what the world tells us to do: go to college, get a great job, have 2.5 kids, etc. Ingrid checked all of the boxes but still felt unhappy.
She knew there was more and knew the only way to get to the more was to talk to somebody. She has no shade on therapy, but she didn't think it was for her. What she needed was a coach on a professional and a personal level.
Learning to Say NOWhen Ingrid started to say NO, most people around her were taken aback. The process was difficult, but she had to wean herself off it. After a while, she stopped getting as many phone calls and realized people mostly ask for her help because she makes it easy for them.
