Meet The Wisdom Trust
Our Mission
Do you ever wish you could reach into the mind of the elders who seem to be able to lead so effortlessly? Have you ever wanted a personal guide to lead you through your own path to leadership and growth?
Ethel Seiderman hand-picked a group of emerging leaders and invited them into her home. She shared her stories, her painful lessons, and courageous efforts that built countless successes from supporting children and their families to creating policies that strengthen us all.
Join the Wisdom Trust on Ethel's couch and experience the nuggets of truth that live on, even after her passing. Create your own Wisdom Trust that makes sense in your community with the helpful tips that are shared at the end of the anthology. Be ready to be curious about your own lessons you will be transferring to the next generation and how you will learn from those who paved the way before you.
Our History
We started gathering in a circle around Ethel's green chair in her living room in 2008, but she already knew what she wanted to do long before then. Ethel had approached each one of us in a loving way, and motivational way.
