Mary Means’ life’s work has been helping others do hard things together. She is well known as the award-winning founder of the Main Street revitalization movement that has brought vitality back to countless town centers. Many people know the professional side of Mary. Very few know the private Mary, the woman who achieved this while struggling with family trauma, inner doubts, imposter syndrome, and failed relationships. A lot of women do this while hiding their true emotions rather than seem weak or hysterical. Her candor and vulnerability permeate her book Something Worth Saving: A Memoir of Secrets, Betrayals, Resilience and Love. Reader response has been powerful, life-changing for some. Join us for this heartfelt conversation.
