Welcome to The Executive Life™
An intimate glimpse into the real world and lives of women leaders. Led by the Keitt Institute’s dynamic doctor-daughter duo of Dr. Jennifer Keitt and Morgan Holmes, these one-of-a-kind conversations give you a peek behind the curtain to see these women (and hopefully yourself) up close and personal in the place where ambition meets authenticity, resilience meets reward, and innovation sparks meaningful change.
Join us monthly as we navigate the complexities of women in leadership, celebrate the triumphs of perseverance, and explore what it truly means to excel in The Executive Life™.
The goal of these conversations is simple: to inspire change in women’s lives and encourage powerful transformation for lifelong success!
