The past year reminded us that progress doesn’t always come easily, but it does come through leadership, collaboration, and a shared commitment to moving forward together.
One of the most rewarding parts of this journey continues to be amplifying the voices of women across our industry. Through your stories, insights, and willingness to lead with authenticity, you shape not only this publication but the broader mortgage community. The growth of the Mortgage Women Leadership Council has been a powerful reflection of that collective effort, reinforcing the importance of mentorship, advocacy, and meaningful support.
This first issue of the year sets the tone for what 2026 can be: thoughtful leadership, intentional growth, and continued celebration of women who are making an impact every day. While challenges remain in the market, opportunity still exists for those willing to adapt, innovate, and lean on one another.
As always, I’m grateful, for the community we’ve built, for a career that continues to challenge and inspire me, and for the privilege of sharing these pages with so many remarkable women. Here’s to a year of purpose, momentum, and continued connection.
