In this episode, I interview two incredible women who turned connection into community impact: Maggie Potter, Managing Shareholder at Segal McCambridge’s Tampa office, and Misty Carson, Business Development Executive and Workforce Strategist at OneDigital. What began as a chance meeting at an APIW Tampa event quickly blossomed into a deep friendship and shared purpose. Together, Maggie and Misty founded the Florida chapter of the Insurance Industry Charitable Foundation (IICF), a vision born from their desire to create something lasting and meaningful in their state.  Throughout our conversation, Maggie and Misty reflect on how friendship, purpose, and community are all beautifully intertwined. Their work with organizations like the PACE Center for Girls has not only changed lives but also reshaped their own perspectives on leadership, opportunity, and self-belief. Misty shared, “Our mindset can get in our way so much… if we don’t believe that we deserve opportunity, it’s really difficult to take that opportunity and do something with it.” Together, they embody what it means to “build a longer table”, lifting others as they lead, challenging each other to grow, and reminding us that true impact starts when we combine passion with partnership.
