Welcome to our November Highlights! As we step into a season filled with gratitude and reflection, we’re celebrating the partnerships, purpose, and meaningful growth that have shaped this year. Thank you for being part of this journey and for the impact you create within your organizations and communities.


“Gratitude unlocks the fullness of life. It turns what we have into enough, and more.” — Melody Beattie


I am incredibly grateful for every relationship, partnership, and opportunity this year has brought. Thank you for trusting Next Level Training Solutions to serve, support, and grow with you.


Wishing you and your family a holiday filled with joy and gratitude.


As we move into this season of thanksgiving, my heart is truly full. November always reminds me to pause, reflect, and appreciate the people, partnerships, and opportunities that have shaped this year. And when I look back, I am overwhelmed with gratitude.


This year, I have had the privilege of working with an incredible network of leaders, nonprofits, city agencies, businesses, and community partners across Arkansas and beyond. Every meeting, every session, every retreat, and every training has been a reminder of why I do this work to help people grow, lead, and reach their Next Level.


As we step into a season filled with gratitude and reflection, we’re celebrating the partnerships, purpose, and meaningful growth that have shaped this year. Thank you for being part of our journey and for the impact you continue to make within your organizations and communities. A few milestones I am especially proud of include:


  • Served as an exhibitor at the State SHRM Conference

  • Attended the National SHRM Conference this summer

  • Was accepted into the Goldman Sachs 10,000 Small Businesses program

  • Served as a table sponsor for the Arkansas River Valley Area Council’s Denim & Diamonds fundraiser supporting the River Valley area

  • Coordinated and hosted a full-day retreat for the NWA Food Insecurity Community of Practice

  • Spoke at a national program hosted here in Northwest Arkansas, DisruptHR Northwest

  • Hosted both the Spring and Fall cohorts of the Next Level Leadership Program

  • Spoke for numerous organizations and professional groups across the region


Each experience has strengthened my belief that leadership development is more needed than ever, and that real transformation happens when we invest in people.


Next Level Training Solutions Group has been operating full-time since the pandemic in 2020. Every year, we take bold steps forward. Every year, we expand our reach. And every year, I am reminded of one of my favorite scriptures: “Do not despise these small beginnings.” Here’s to a strong finish to 2025 and a powerful start to 2026. Let’s take it to the Next Level — together.


What started as a calling has grown into a business that embraces partnership, innovation, and impact. I am grateful for every client who has trusted me, every leader who has welcomed me into their development journey, and every team that has allowed me to support their growth.


Check out what’s new:
