NCTA Women in Trucking - Speaker Series

Topic: Cultivating A Culture of Connection

Date: Wednesday, February 18, 2026    Time: 10:00am - 11:00am

Cultivating A Culture of Connection

We are the most connected society in history. Yet, we are living in an epidemic of disconnection that has resulted in an unprecedented physical and mental health crisis. Cara invites us to practice intentional connection as a pathway to collective healing and resilience. She presents her powerful framework to connect and collaborate for impact. Her inspiring story shows why community is the key to building resilience and navigating uncertainty.  

•    Discover the STOP to Connect framework for presence.

•    Turn quick interactions into micro-moments of meaningful connection.

•    Improve team well-being and engagement by fostering community.

 

Speaker: 

Cara Truitt brings over 20 years of experience as an entrepreneur, business owner, and community leader in Charlotte, NC.

As Founder & Executive Producer of TEDx Sugar Creek Women, Charlotte Chapter Host of Mic Drop Club, and Education Director for NAWBO Charlotte, she is passionate about amplifying women’s voices and ideas.

Named one of the Top 50 Women to KNOW in North Carolina in 2024, Cara’s dynamic presence and skill in facilitating meaningful conversations make her a sought-after moderator and speaker.

Her diverse background across logistics, creative, nonprofit, and wellness sectors has shaped her into a master collaborator and connector, inspiring others through her story of resilience and her dedication to building inclusive, connected communities. When she’s not speaking or producing an event, you can find her hiking on the greenway or at home in Fort Mill, SC with her husband and two young children.
