• Unveiling Simplicity in Leadership with Marlissa Hudson

A proud Duke University graduate, Marlissa has established herself as a dynamic consultant and transformative fundraiser, known for her expertise in unlocking access to resources for Black and Brown communities.

Driven by a profound sense of purpose and gratitude for those who paved her way, Marlissa uses her voice—on stage and in the boardroom—to champion inclusivity, courage, and lasting change. Takeaways Purpose Beyond Surface: Marlissa’s journey shows that finding your “because”—a purpose deeper than just a “why”—can anchor your leadership, refuel you through challenges, and enable you to stand as a shoulder for others to climb higher. The Power of Simplicity and Courage: Being productive isn’t about busyness; it’s about simplifying priorities, setting strong boundaries, and having the courage to engage authentically, even in difficult conversations. Access and Impact in Fundraising: True fundraising success is not just about hitting numbers—it’s about opening doors for those historically left out and ensuring that money raised directly translates into meaningful, community-driven change.  Sound Bites “If not you, then who? I know I was designed for this, but the deeper because of it all is because people poured into me at so many points in my life when I had neither earned it nor deserved it.” “Busyness is one of the biggest things people use. I can’t be prepared for this meeting because I’m so busy… But if you want to really make a dent, you have to be authentic and vulnerable.” “The money is the vehicle. It is not the purpose.

• Gary Linnen: Unlocking the Power of Peer Leaders

  Gary Linnen is the dedicated CEO of Peer Forward, a nonprofit organization transforming the college journey for young people by harnessing the power of positive peer influence. Growing up in Spanish Harlem during challenging times, Gary’s life was changed by educational opportunities that showed him firsthand how crucial support and guidance can be. After forging lifelong connections and earning a degree from Cornell, Gary traded a corporate career for his calling—empowering youth to reach their potential. Under his leadership, Peer Forward has helped nearly 700,000 students across the U.S. and internationally, not just get to college but thrive, using innovative peer-led models that foster both self-belief and academic achievement. Key Takeaways: Peer influence is often more impactful for teens than parental advice, making peer-led support a powerful force in college access and success. Foundational life skills—like knowing personal information, managing applications, and understanding financial aid—are just as crucial as academic prep for students transitioning to college. Creating a culture of affirmation, support, and fit helps students not only get into college but stay and succeed, as alumni returning to give back is a testament to Peer Forward’s lasting impact.  Sound Bites: "A 17-year-old is more inclined to listen to another 17-year-old—positive peer pressure makes all the difference." "We ask, ‘Why should you show up? Why is it important for you to know that you’re worthy?’ That’s where transformation starts." "It’s about small wins—the power to help one person in your community and share that potential goes a long way."
