Nita has always believed that the best teachers live what they teach. That belief inspired one of her own life's greatest adventures: moving with her family to Florence, Italy, where she helped launch The Florentine, the city's first English-language newspaper. The experience became the foundation for her memoir, It Happened in Florence, celebrating the rewards of embracing possibility, taking courageous risks, and creating a life well lived.

 

Her newest book, How Not to Stay Single When... Your Husband Has Alzheimer's and Two Girlfriends, reveals another dimension of her work. With remarkable honesty, unexpected humor, and hard-earned wisdom, Nita shares the deeply personal journey of caring for her husband through Alzheimer's disease while discovering what it means to continue living, loving, laughing, and finding purpose amid heartbreak. The book challenges conventional narratives about caregiving and offers readers something rarely found in conversations about dementia: permission to remain fully alive.

 

Today, Nita's speaking and consulting span leadership, resilience, reinvention, caregiving, and living with vitality through life's greatest challenges. Whether she's addressing executives, healthcare professionals, women's organizations, or family caregivers, her message remains the same: leadership isn't simply what you do—it's who you choose to BE, especially when life asks the most of you.
