    • Why Worthiness Isn't Earned (And What That Means for Your Transformation)

      Why Worthiness Isn't Earned (And What That Means for Your Transformation)
      Feb 26 2026
      "Are you navigating transformation alone when the fabric of community is waiting to hold you?" What happens when you refuse to stay trapped? Leann Rose Crook shares her journey through eight major life transformations—from single mom on welfare to salon owner to leading 50 men in Iraq's desert. Her message? "You are absolutely good enough." Not because of achievements. Simply because you're human. Leann reveals the grade five moment that sparked her lifelong purpose, the profound realization that "we are all the same" she discovered on tribal floors in Iraq, and a simple five-question exercise to identify your own purpose. Her story challenges the myth of going it alone. We're not meant to be independent threads—we're meant to weave ourselves into the fabric of community, especially during transformation.Leann Rose Crook is a Transformation Mentor, Identity Recovery Coach, and founder of Lango Living. After navigating eight major life transformations—from single mom on welfare to salon owner to leading occupational health and safety training for 50 men in Iraq—Leann developed a practical six-step transformation system for women navigating major life change. Her keynote "Desert Rose in Iraq" draws from seven years working in Iraq and Oman. Today, Leann helps women who feel like everything has shifted—divorce, job loss, burnout, or relocation—rebuild their identity, reclaim their power, and take ownership of their next chapter.

    • The Ambassador's Path: From Army Ranger to Appalachian Trail to Community Service

      The Ambassador's Path: From Army Ranger to Appalachian Trail to Community Service
      Feb 19 2026
      “I saw my father do it. So I have a better understanding on how to do it, how to serve, how to lead." - Barry FarmerWhat happens when a decorated US Army veteran walks away from 23 years of service? Barry Farmer didn't slow down—he discovered his true calling. After raising seven children and adopting three more, Barry threw himself into Jacksonville's nonprofit world, joining three boards and becoming a Human Rights Commissioner. But burnout led him to the Appalachian Trail. "When you feel useless, become useful to somebody," a hostel owner told him. That wisdom transformed everything. Barry's parents never preached servant leadership—they lived it. Now he's weaving a community fabric where isolated threads become something stronger together. His message? More than average isn't about salary. It's about heart. Barry Farmer, trail name "Ambassador," is a retired US Army veteran with 23 years of honorable service, including completing Army Ranger School as one of three African Americans in his graduating class. After retiring as a major in 2021, Barry threw himself into Jacksonville community service, joining three nonprofit boards and serving as a Human Rights Commissioner (2022-2024). He completed Leadership Jacksonville Cohort 2024 and served as President of Phi Beta Sigma Fraternity's Jacksonville chapter. A father to seven children and three adopted nieces/nephews, Barry completed the Appalachian Trail thru-hike in 2025, summiting on September 11th.
