The Annual Alumni Breakfast is a professional development and networking opportunity and serves as our premier recruitment event for alumni, participants, and friends of O.L.A. This event will kick off with a breakfast buffet from 7:15 a.m. - 7:45 a.m. followed by a keynote address from the one and only Jill Andersen from 7:45 a.m. - 8:30 a.m.

She's the JILL for the job. Jill Andersen is a speaker and coach whose life was just okay until her SHOULDS hit the fan and everything changed. Equipped with an MBA, a divorce, more than a few job changes, and a helluva lot of perspective....

Growing up in small town Iowa the second of four daughters, Jill followed all of the rules (only got grounded once!) and excelled at doing life by the book. She earned a B.S. in food science from Iowa State University, chose only internships and jobs in her field, earned an MBA after breaking up with her boyfriend because she had nothing else to do, got married, got divorced 18 months later and hasn't done life by the book since.

A 'Jill-of-all-trades' she loves working in higher education at Iowa State University and Drake University, speaking and leading workshops. She is a fear wrangler, shoulding survivor, wife to her Ironman husband, dog mom of Hank McFluffernutter, traveler and lover of food.

Most of all, Jill’s purpose is to inspire people to live so they don't die with a long list of SHOULD-haves.

Key Takeaways:

Identify expectations (SHOULDs), where they come from and their influence on current circumstances

Translate SHOULDs into COULDs by identifying the differences and discovering opportunities

Create an action plan (your map!) and tips to CHOOSE to move forward with confidence
