Meet our nominee of The Well 52: Moira Weir
Moira Weir is President and CEO of the United Way of Greater Cincinnati
What is the most important thing you do for your wellness?
I try to get at least seven hours of sleep every night. I have learned that doing so improves my overall mental and physical wellness.
What is one piece of advice you'd give to other women?
Support each other. There is room for all of us to succeed.
What is one quote / mantra you live by?
Let your passion be your purpose. Connect what you do and why you do it. I took a passion for mentoring a single foster child and turned it into a career of helping families and children. When your work is something you are passionate about, it really isn’t work.
Brag on yourself – what is something you are REALLY proud of?
Being a frontline child welfare worker is one of the best experiences of my life. I watched families make gut-wrenching decisions every day. It taught me a lot about humility, grace and compassion. All of that has spurred me to think how we collectively can constructively disrupt the current system so that ALL families could truly thrive as they choose.
