Sheri not only believes that ideas and empathy are an advisor’s true currency — she’s been advocating it for nearly 30 years. An internationally recognized financial services speaker\, success coach\, social media expert (Deconstructing Digital)\, and visionary pioneer of digital emotional intelligence (digitalEQ™)\, she’s helped financial services and fintech firms build brands\, deepen client relationships\, and drive sales and revenue growth. As the host of Women Rocking Wall Street\, Sheri has championed gender-pay equity and the critical need to get more women into the boardroom. \nKaren G. Robinson\, M.Ed. \nKaren Greene Robinson is a theatre educator\, storyteller\, and theatre artist with decades of experience using performance and narrative to cultivate voice\, confidence\, and human connection. She began her career as an educator in Compton Unified School District teaching English and directing plays\, where she co-sponsored the Dominguez High School drama program that received the NEA SuAnne Big Crow Award for Human and Civil Rights and was featured in the award winning documentary OT: Our Town. During this period\, she also co-founded Project Renaissance Theatre Arts and Learning Center\, serving as Artistic Director and guiding youth and formerly incarcerated individuals in crafting and performing personal stories rooted in lived experience. Her artistic perspective on theatre as a vehicle for dialogue and human connection was shaped by her experience as an Allen Lee Hughes Fellow with Arena Stage’s social outreach theatre company\, Living Stage Theatre Company in Washington\, DC. Since 2002\, Karen has served Los Angeles Unified School District in a range of roles including theatre teacher at all grade levels\, director\, peer coach\, and arts specialist. Currently Karen provides leadership and guidance for theatre education across the nation’s second largest public school district\, LAUSD\, as a K-12 Arts Coordinator. A former board member of the California Educational Theatre Association and a recipient of its Outstanding Elementary Theatre Teacher honor\, Karen continues to champion theatre as a powerful practice for storytelling\, empathy\, and collective imagination. \nKeleigh Crigler Hadley \nKeleigh Crigler Hadley has a biology degree from San Diego State University gathering dust somewhere in a closet. Turns out\, she never used it. Not once. While classmates went on to exciting careers in labs and research\, she discovered her true calling was in storytelling\, a career pivot that made her unused education a fantastic conversation starter at parties. \nHer journey as an author began when she wrote a deeply personal story about the loss of her first-born son. That piece of her heart was chosen by Simon & Schuster for the anthology The Motherhood Diaries\, where it appeared alongside stories from other moms navigating the beautiful chaos of motherhood. Best-selling author Victoria Christopher Murray\, one of the anthology's editors\, saw something special in her writing and encouraged her to keep going. (Thanks\, Victoria. Look what you've started.) \nSince then\, she's written Revenge\, Inc.\, What You Won't Do For Love\, and The Good Enough Mom because if you can't be perfect\, you might as well write about it. She also moonlights as cozy mystery author KC Hadley\, whose debut Murder on Kane Lane proves that biology degree or not\, she knows how to creatively kill off fictional characters. Her newest cozy mystery\, Devils in the Details\, is currently on submission and looking for a good home. \n\nMake it a full day with us! Join the morning program and stay for the Storytelling Competition—we’ll be serving lunch between events so you can fuel up\, network\, and keep the inspiration flowing. \nRegistration closes at 9:00am Friday\, January 23.\nPlease note important location details on listing. \nhttps://nsasocal.org/events/january-24-2026-competition/

DESCRIPTION:Booked\, Remembered\, and Referred: Your 2026 LinkedIn Glow-Up\nhttps://nsasocal.org/events/january-24-2026/ \nLet’s be honest: most speakers’ LinkedIn profiles are a hot mess.

Together we’ll dive into your own profile and: \n\nFix the “résumé trap” so your profile screams “professional speaker” in under seven seconds\nNail your headline\, banner\, and About section so you stop being scrolled past\nShowcase your speaking skills with the kind of social proof and video planners crave\nLearn how to connect without being cringey or salesy\nWalk away with a LinkedIn presence that actually gets you booked\, remembered\, and referred\n\nThis isn’t a lecture. It’s a working session. So grab your computer\, park the excuses\, and let’s make LinkedIn finally work for you. \nMeet Sheri Fitts\nTo survive the disruptive sea change that’s happening across the financial services industry\, you need to uncover and emotionally articulate the life transformations you deliver each day to your clients.

SUMMARY:BlackNSA (VIRTUAL): Crystal Washington\, CPAE
DESCRIPTION:**Please join us using a one-time free guest pass. Use Promo Code: Guest Pass** \n================================== \nData Driven Decision Making: Grow Your Business Without Luck – Crystal Washington CSP\, CPAE\n6:00 – 7:00 PM ET – Education Session7:00 – 8:00 PM ET – Deep Dive                                       \nSpeakers oftentimes gravitate to the newest trends to grow their businesses. However\, fancy websites\, the newest style of demo videos\, and social media posts are great for marketing\, but do not help with strategic growth. In this talk\, Crystal Washington CSP\, CPAE will share how speakers can leverage their own internal and external data to make smarter decisions. \nKEY TAKEAWAYS: \n\nUnderstand the difference between fads and data trends.\nUnderstand the types of reports that can help your business flourish.\nGain the confidence to create your own custom reports!\n\nWhy This Matters Now! \nIn an era where algorithms change overnight and platforms rise and fall\, speakers can no longer afford to build their businesses based on guesswork or hype. Decisions driven by trends alone often lead to wasted time\, inconsistent revenue\, and stalled growth. What matters now is clarity. By learning how to use data already available to them\, speakers can move from reactive marketing to intentional strategy. In this timely session\, Crystal Washington shows why data-informed decisions are no longer optional for speakers who want sustainable growth\, smarter positioning\, and the confidence to scale their business with purpose instead of chasing the next shiny object.

After a series of major struggles beginning in her mid-20s\, she has built two successful businesses and is the author of two books\, including her most recent book\, The Successful Struggle: Powerful Techniques to Achieve Accelerated Resilience.

SUMMARY:NSAAZ: Say What They Can't Unhear: How To Inspire Change That Lasts
DESCRIPTION:Say What They Can’t Unhear: How To Inspire Change That Lasts \nIn a world of constant change\, how can speakers inspire transformations that truly endure? Tamsen Webster\, acclaimed speaker and author of “Say What They Can’t Unhear: The 9 Principles of Lasting Change\,” presents a groundbreaking approach to crafting talks that create lasting shifts in how audiences think and act. \nDrawing from over 30 years of experience in message design and change communications\, Webster challenges conventional wisdom about persuasive speaking. She reveals why traditional presentation methods often fail to drive real change and introduces a powerful new framework for creating talks that stand the test of time. \nWhether you’re delivering keynotes\, training workshops\, or virtual presentations\, this session will equip you with the tools to not just engage your audience\, but to transform them. Learn how to turn a momentary “yes” into enduring action with ideas that resonate so strongly\, they become impossible to “unhear.” \nKey Takeaways: \n\nUnderstand why audience change is a reaction\, not just an action\, and how to design your talks accordingly\nLearn to craft a case for change that connects with your audience’s existing beliefs and identity\nDiscover speaking strategies that overcome resistance without relying on pain or pressure\nMaster the art of turning short-term audience agreement into long-term commitment\n\nVirtual or Recording: 9AM – 12PM AZ (MST) \nRegister: https://nsa-arizona.org/events \nPart message designer\, part English-to-English translator\, and now part doctoral student\, Tamsen Webster\, MBA helps leaders quickly craft their case for long-lasting changes in thinking and behavior.
