A ConvHERsation with Kristie in the Hot Pink Seat with Kate Norton | Ep 29 | ConvHERsations with Kristie

In this powerful flip-the-script episode of ConvHERsations with Kristie, Kristie Clayton steps into the guest seat as Kate Norton leads a heartfelt conversation about how HERverse began, what it’s become, and where it’s going.

Kristie reflects on the early days—feeling isolated as a second-in-command while her Visionary had access to countless peer groups—and the deep longing that sparked the creation of a space for Integrators and women leaders to grow together. What started as five women around a table has since grown into a thriving, intentional community built on trust, vulnerability, and bold leadership.

Together, Kristie and Kate explore what it means to build something bigger than yourself, how small circles of support scale into movements, and the “scare-sighted” moments that fueled HERverse’s expansion—beyond EOS, beyond Integrators, and into a full-spectrum network of second-in-command and department-level leaders.

This episode is a rare window into Kristie’s heart: her love for this community, the vision behind “Honor. Empower. Inspire.,” and her deep belief that leadership is not meant to be done alone.
