<p>In this episode of <em>Conversations With Toi</em>, we’re joined by the incredible <strong>Amy Impellizzeri</strong> to talk about her work with <strong>BLOCS</strong> and the powerful ways the organization is investing in the next generation of men and women. We dig into the mission behind BLOCS, the importance of educational access, and how community support truly changes futures.</p><p>We also highlight the upcoming <strong>BLOCS Speaker Series</strong> happening <strong>May 6th at the Rittenhouse Hotel from 6–8 PM</strong>, featuring bestselling author <strong>Marie Benedict</strong> as she shares insights from her newest book, <em>Daughter of Egypt</em>. Amy gives us a behind‑the‑scenes look at what attendees can expect, why this conversation matters, and how events like this create space for women to learn, lead, and lift one another.</p><p>Throughout the episode, we explore the power of women showing up—through donating, advocating, attending, and supporting causes that open doors for others. We talk about what it means to stand in your purpose, especially when your professional mission mirrors your personal values.</p><p>And as always, we close with a conversation on <strong>self‑care</strong>—the kind that goes beyond bubble baths and into boundaries, alignment, and honoring the parts of yourself that need rest while you continue to pour into your community.</p><p>If you believe in women supporting women, storytelling that inspires action, and the importance of showing up with intention, this episode is for you.</p><p>Get tickets to see Marie Benedict <strong>Tickets available </strong><a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://www.blocs.org/marie"><strong>https://www.blocs.org/marie</strong></a></p><p>Follow me across all platforms <strong>@toitimeblog</strong> and visit <a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="http://www.toitime.org"><strong>www.toitime.org</strong></a> for more wellness, intentional living, and real‑life conversations!</p>
