Delivered “Rise & Resilience: A True Story” to open the Women’s Connection Virtual Celebration
45-minute keynote with audience Q&A
Tailored message for high-performing women leaders in law
For USLAW Network’s Women’s Connection Month, the challenge was clear: energize and connect top female attorneys and their clients in a meaningful way, virtually. With attendees ranging from in-house legal counsel to corporate risk managers, the tone needed to be insightful, motivational, and professionally aligned.
Cara Brookins delivered exactly that with “Rise & Resilience: A True Story.” Her story of overcoming personal trauma by building her own home with her kids immediately resonated with a legal audience used to high-stakes decisions and complex systems.
The keynote balanced emotion with actionable advice, making it perfect for legal professionals navigating daily demands. Cara spoke about building personal resilience in parallel with professional credibility, offering fresh insight on how leaders rebuild stronger after crisis.
The feedback was overwhelmingly positive, kicking off the month-long celebration with momentum and connection.
“Thank you for a wonderful coffee break presentation! What a wonderful way to kick off the Celebration! Our audience was engaged the entire time and many participated in Q&A; it was fabulous!”
