Professional and Career Topics

Many of us are here today because Tirza personally invited us to join these forums. She had a remarkable gift for connecting people, fostering relationships, and building a community where professionals could learn from and support one another. 

As we reflect on her passing, it seems fitting that our Professional and Career Topics forum honor the impact she had on us-not only through what she accomplished, but through what she taught those of us who knew her here.

I invite you to share something you learned from Tirza, whether it was a lesson in leadership, mentorship, networking, service, or simply the example she set through her actions. It could be a piece of advice she gave, a quality you admired, or a moment that changed how you approach your career or your interactions with others.

My hope is that this thread becomes a collection of the lessons she shared-both intentionally and by example. In continuing to learn from one another, just as she encouraged us to do, we can carry forward the community that Tirza worked so hard to build.
