  • Season 3, Episode 1: Transitions, Transformations and Tough Things to Tackle
    Sep 10 2024

    Welcome to Season 3 of the Pink Grapefruit Podcast! We're back after a fun and restful summer break. This season we are upping the game. Deeper, pointed conversations and amazing guests from a wide variety of backgrounds--some you're familiar with--and some that will surprise you! It all dials in to the behaviors and skills we need to see and experience from leaders--local, global, youth and elder. So don't miss an episode--we'll be bringing you the best!

    This season launches with our friend, Emily Johnson, CAO of the Boise Public Library. She's in a challenging role given the current climate of the freedom to choose what we read--especially here in our state of Idaho where the battle wages on. Emily shares how she transitioned from her previous executive role in a non-profit during the COVID years to a role that asks her to transform much of our library system--how the community sees it, what the needs are as well as how to uplift and support all of the fantastic library staff that bring so much to their roles. Listen in as we unwrap the layers in episode 1 of our 2 part series with Emily. You'll love it! Then let us know what your thoughts are! We want to get the dialogue going.
