Join YWIN for a virtual conversation with Pam Sherman the night before Play You, the Role of a Lifetime publishes. Pam is a leadership coach, actor, writer, recovering lawyer, and JWI's incoming board chair — and these are her ideas, her stories, and your questions, before the book is in everyone else's hands.
The book is built around what Pam calls the believability gap: the distance between who you are, who you think you "should" be, and how you show up for others. It quietly erodes your confidence and your connections before you realize it's happening — and the counterintuitive way to close it is to use what great actors know, to show up as more yourself, not less.
Pam will walk you through your EDGE:
E — Explore the core of your character and how to bring it fully into any room or role
D — Dream and share your story arc — where you've been, where you're headed
G — Grow past the archetypes and scripts that widen the gap and work against you
E — Excite and connect with the people you want to reach — with clarity, credibility, and conviction

Play You, the Role of a Lifetime is available April 21. Pre-order on Amazon.

What's JWI? Jewish women have always been a force. JWI believes they deserve to live like it — free from violence, in control of their own money, and with a seat at the table where decisions are made. Not as three separate goals — as one conviction. We bring Jewish women together across generations — because community is what makes everything else possible. Jewish women have always made the world better. JWI makes sure the world is better for Jewish women.
What's YWIN? YWIN is JWI's network for Jewish women in their 20s and 30s. Ambitious, funny, proudly Jewish, ready to lead and give back — and absolutely down for mahjong.
