Sometimes, standing in the longest supermarket line can be a conscious choice for growth, not just a test of our patience. That's just one gem from my conversation with Joanne Green, author of By Accident: A Memoir of Letting Go, and the voice behind the "In this Story" podcast. We discuss trauma, post-traumatic stress, and the shaping of resilience. Joanne lays bare her personal odyssey from loss to healing, teaching us that true resilience is about nurturing patience and empathy in the face of life's daily vexations.

Joanne sheds light on the body's memory of pain and the ways in which our past experiences shape our present, and the significance of recognizing and honoring our deep-seated responses. It's an essential dialogue for anyone aiming to foster environments where compassion and trauma-informed leadership are the foundation for collective healing and progress.

Joanne Greene never bought the adage “little girls should be seen and not heard.” She's used her voice on San Francisco radio and television, webinars, and podcasts, to explore the issues of our time with playful irreverence, candor, and compassion. Now, with many decades of seasoning, she's sharing what she's learned about navigating family and career, moving through pain and loss.
