    Amy Berg

    In this episode of Unreasonable, Josh Martino sits down with Amy Berg, whose career has been defined by a deep commitment to collaboration, storytelling, and values-based leadership. From her early days in Southern California, where environmental challenges shaped her interest in urban planning, to leadership roles in Santa Barbara and Aspen, Berg reflects on how her experiences guided her toward building communities that balance growth, quality of life, and shared purpose, and how her work with the Aspen Institute reinforced her belief in the power of dialogue to bridge divides and solve complex problems. She also shares her leadership at the Better Angels Society, where she helped elevate documentary storytelling as a powerful tool for understanding American history and connecting people through shared narratives, as well as her and her husband's current work in Jacksonville supporting the Mayo Clinic’s Innovation Exchange—an effort to help ideas, from frontline healthcare insights to global collaborations, grow into impactful solutions. Across every chapter of her journey, Berg returns to a defining belief: meaningful progress requires courage, curiosity, and a willingness to engage with others, and that being “unreasonable” is ultimately about having the conviction to speak truth, take risks, and bring people together to create lasting change.
