Journalism matters. The people doing journalism matter. We don't have to choose between editorial excellence and human dignity, between ambitious goals and sustainable practices, between strategic thinking and intuitive knowing.
When leaders learn to access their intuitive authority and regulate their nervous systems, they create space for their teams to do the same. When newsrooms adopt trauma-informed practices, they produce better journalism while supporting reporter wellbeing. When self-leadership and belonging become the foundation—not an afterthought—both individuals and organizations thrive.
I've spent two decades proving this works—in my own leadership, in the executives I coach, in the teams I've built, in the measurable outcomes that follow. Now I help other leaders and organizations do the same.
