Carla Zanoni is a journalist, poet, and media leader who's held senior roles at the Wall Street Journal, TED, and now runs the engagement journalism program at CUNY’s Newmark Graduate School of Journalism. She's also someone who went into recovery at 23 and has rebuilt her life more than once. In this episode of The Breadwinners, host Rachael Lowell talks to Carla about what she calls "the alchemy of surrender" - those moments when the playbook stops working and you have to get quiet enough to see what's actually true. We talk about the myth of the linear career path, why bringing your whole self to work isn't cringey when it's real, and what it means to lead from a place of integration rather than compartmentalization. If you've ever felt like you were supposed to chart a course from A to B but life had other plans, this one's for you.

She was the first Latina named to the Wall Street Journal’s masthead and served as TED’s first head of audience development.
