Christine Stuart, Editorial Director at American Business Media, will kick off this conversation encouraging everyone to find the passion and drive to, if not be a boss, act like one. Take control of your career, push yourself to be the best, and have the courage to take chances. Sometimes, that will propel you up the ranks in the company you work for. Sometimes, it will propel you to start their own. But first you have to understand what it takes not just to want to be great, but what specific things you need to do to achieve it. That’s why we’ve brought together women who’ve done just that.

When you’re a mortgage professional, sometimes you wonder if you can overcome every obstacle in front of you. Amanda Beard made her first Olympic swimming appearance in 1996at the age of 14. Beard won one gold and two silver medals at that firstOlympic Games and has been a strong competitor since. She went on to win a gold medal, two silvers and a bronze at the next two Olympic Games. Beard is the winner of eight national titles and is a former world record holder.
Amanda has also made her mark outside of the pool, becoming much more than the 14-year-oldOlympic gold medalist that carried her teddy bear around wherever she went.When she isn't swimming, her energy is focused on being a mom to son Blaise and building her brand. She connects with mothers and fans through her blog, Swim Like a Mom, where she actively shares her passion for raising her son, her journey of motherhood, her favorite recipes and her secret to staying in great shape, in addition to her Olympic experience. As a huge advocate for living a healthy life and taking care of herself, Amanda is also currently a partial owner in Mission Skincare Products, a line designed for people with active lifestyles. The company endorses super stars, such as Dwayne Wade, Serena Williams and many other high-profile athletes.
In April 2012, Amanda released her first book, New York Times Best Seller “In The Water They Can't See You Cry,” a riveting memoir revealing the truth behind the Olympic spotlight, the battles that she fought along the way and her new found happiness in love and motherhood. Touring coast to coast, Amanda stays busy talking about her book, hosting swim clinics, endorsing products, speaking at events and making appearances in top national media like the “Today Show,” “Dr.Phil,” “Access Hollywood,” CNN, USA Today, FOX Sports and more.
