Description

What happens when the thing driving your success is the same thing breaking you? Ashli Rosenthal Blumenfeld, co-president of Standard Meat, shares her journey from perfectionism and self-criticism to self-awareness and purpose — and how that transformation is now reshaping leadership across a 90-year-old family business. A candid, no-BS talk about taking off the armor, fighting your dragons, and finally believing you’re enough. Following the keynote, Ashli will sit down with Meat Institute CEO Julie Anna Potts for a fireside chat to dig deeper into the conversation.
