PALS' Brandi Powell: Embrace your gifts

Brandi Powell gives her keynote, "Scared to Embrace What I'm Good At: Finding, Recognizing and Cultivating Your Gifts," Thursday night in Seiberling.

Believing in yourself, listening to your heart and embracing your gifts can be a tricky thing, but also very rewarding when it happens. After downplaying nay-sayers and critics, Brandi Powell -- the fall Patricia Adams Lecture Series speaker -- was motivated to recognize her gifts in pursuit of her professional dreams. As a weekend anchor and reporter for KSTP-TV in Minneapolis, Brandi shared her professional journey with Heidelberg students, faculty, staff and community guests on Thursday. In addition to her keynote, Brandi met with students in class and informally.
