    Steady in the Chaos with Carla Zanoni

    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.

Today, she leads the engagement journalism program at CUNY’s Newmark Graduate School of Journalism, produces and guides strategy for The On Being Project, and consults with publishers and thought leaders on media and narrative strategy. She shares personal essays in her monthly newsletter, The Em Dash.

    Season 7 Trailer

    Welcome to Season 7 of "The Breadwinners," a podcast about how we navigate work, life, ambition and identity even as the ground shifts wildly beneath us. Join host Rachael Lowell, Executive Coach & Creator of the SHIFT Framework, for conversations with amazing and inspiring creatives, builders, experts and leaders about all the ways in which the world of work is radically different from what we expected (and what we were sold). What happens when the career you built disappears overnight, when your world shakes on its foundations, and when you have to keep leading? It can be messy, expensive and sometimes painful - but also freeing, with unexpected promise and potential. Even in the chaos of 2026 (and "chaos" is being polite), we can still be ambitious, inspired, hungry and driven by big dreams. Welcome to "The Breadwinners" - where we are doing it all, having it all, and ever rising. "The Breadwinners" Season 7 is a joint production between Reworking Leadership and The Smart Friends Network, generously supported by Ruth Ann Harnisch. "The Breadwinners" was founded by Rachael Lowell and Jennifer Owens in 2019.
