The link to the Arctic Sounder Newpaper, is an article that I am largely the subject of from the testimony I presented at a national Small Business Administration Hearing in 2011.
An interesting side note is that I testified on June 23, 2011 and gave birth to my fourth daughter, Valerie Sobocienski, on June 26, 2011 – 2 days later!

My blog, "Beyond Leadership" is a creative place to share my personal feelings and thoughts while working in leadership roles for a variety of Alaska Native organizations, both for and not-for profit entities.
An incredible leader and mentor of mine once asked while we were in Washington, DC, "What happened to you between the ages of 7-10 that motivated you to serve in a native leadership capacity". I was struck by that poignant thought and as such, include actual entries from my mother and my diaries beginning in the early 1970's.
I enjoy sharing these excerpts because it captures the parallels she and I were experiencing throughout life, from two separate worldviews. Hers as a young mother of four and mine as her eldest child.
I have never came across a book on leadership that lays bare a leaders personal feelings, thoughts, hopes, fears and dreams they were experiencing.
So for me, my goal is two-fold:
1. Share the incredible life my parents created for my siblings and I growing up in remote Alaska; and,
2) Sharing my humanity, through my personal diaries and journals, while serving as the youngest-ever President/CEO for the Alaska Native Health Board.
There are passages that will include significant policy issues I was working on throughout my career and travels. There are many more passages that do not.
I cannot speak for my mom's passages, because I am reading them as I share them here, with you; with her permission of course.
