In a time where the world continues to feel deep sorrow, stress, and strife, I am encourage by the leaders who brave the storm like Michelle Nunn, CEO of CARE. 

I have such a fondness of CARE as I used to work for a likeminded NGO previously and this feels like an extension of my heart projects. 

When I asked Michelle what she has learned as a leader in crisis, she said “I had to learn things anew & challenge our preconceptions. I tend towards an optimistic sensibility which hasn’t always served well in the last year. I need to surround myself with those who think about the worst case scenarios.” 

This is something I have seen leaders avoid; the discomfort of differing views, of recognizing the hardships, and accepting the trials. I am inspired by Michelle’s ability to face this head on. Thank you Michelle for your time and your advice on facing crisis. SO many nuggets in this one!
