Blair Bloomston: Finding your voice as a leader

Today I had the honor of interviewing my mentor, Blair Bloomston. There are many things I can say about Blair as a person, not only in my life but also for the impact she has made on others. Currently, she is the CEO and Founder of Leaders Uplifted. From a fine arts background to a professional speaker and trainer, this interview dives deeper into the mind of Blair and her story. Blair's impressive track record extends beyond the classroom, leading extensive projects and multi-year collaborations with industry giants such as NASA, Deloitte, EY, Hilton, and the U.S. House of Representatives. Notably, her contributions have extended to the military community, where she has designed and delivered programs for military service members, spouses, caregivers, and veterans across all branches of the US Military, as well as partnering with organizations like the USO and Wounded Warrior Project.Blair's drive and entrepreneurial mindset has allowed her to reach professional milestones, including her work as a former Partner, CEO, and Chief Development Officer at Game On Nation, notably achieving the GSA Schedule award for the firm, and facilitating their subsequent awards from USDA, NOAA, VA, USAF, Treasury Executive Institute, and U.S. Special Operations Command. Her work has garnered recognition on esteemed platforms, including ESPN's "Outside the Lines," BBC's "How the Best is Done," the Big 10 Network, and Gulf Coast Business Review's "40 Under 40" list, alongside her recent recognition as one of SRQ Magazine's 2023 Women Who Roar.
