As the year wraps up, we’re reflecting on the remarkable voices and experiences that shaped 2024 at Empower. One of these remarkable voices was endurance athlete and entrepreneur, 'Sunny' Suzanne Stroeer, the first woman to complete the grueling 1,000-mile Iditarod on skis across Alaska. This fall, Sunny shared invaluable insights on setting ambitious goals and sustaining high performance at our global on-site in Vail, CO. She highlighted the critical intersection of physical and mental preparation that enabled her historic achievement. She also shared practical strategies for building sustainable success, whether in the Alaskan backcountry or the workplace. We're grateful to Sunny for inspiring our team to push boundaries and think differently about performance — and energized to apply these lessons as we look toward 2025. ??
