Meet Janet Macaluso, Learning2LEAD Founder
I help Leaders, Teams and Change Makers build new practices and routines. My anti-hero methodology creates a space to ...
... break automatic, outdated habits
... design new patterns and new worlds
... eliminate energy-draining waste
... design transformational change
... diagnose challenges, mysteries, messes
... deliver exceptional systemic results
As a previous executive of leadership, learning, and organization design functions, I've equipped thousands of global leaders to grow their leadership, businesses, and causes.
Yet I've reinvented my traditional "best practices" approach and replaced it with a unique "self-determining" technology. Instead of offering "expert-based" solutions, I now build inner capabilities: critical thinking, deep discernment, and WILLpower.
It's a conscious-building methodology - because there's no playbook or textbook to navigate constant change and flux.
After experiencing the value of Regenerative Business Development, I invested seven years in developing myself at the Carol Sanford Institute:
... The Change Agent Development Community
... The Regenerative Women Entrepreneurs
... The Regenerative Educator
... The Regenerative Economic Community
... Regenerative Boards
... Regenerative Business Development
Janet's experience includes:
▫️ Masters in Education, Harvard
▫️ Master of Science, Pepperdine
▫️ Advanced Certificate in Organization Design, USC
▫️ BRAINZ Top 500 in 2021 and 2022

When you're drowning, dive
Hi, I have a question for you.
First, consider what you're avoiding...
Have you got it?
Now read below and reflect on what it means for you and your context…
"When you're drowning, dive."
Apparently, that's how to avoid death from a riptide current.
Swimming deeper to escape is counter intuitive.
Our instinct is to fight the current and swim directly back to shore.
Yet that's the most dangerous thing to do.
When pulled out to sea, don't swim against it, you’ll exhaust yourself.
Riptides occur in shallow water, where we bathe.
So diving just a yard/meter below it, we escape.
Now, when you consider what you're avoiding, HIthe heaviness of loss, disappointment, fear of failure or unknown...
What does "When you're drowning, dive" mean to you?
Dive inside and find YOUR answer.
If you’re anxious, you’re vibrantly alive.
With freedom, comes accountability.
Once you're beyond the strong current, you'll easily swim out of it.
It won't carry you far—just enough to get smacked by the next big wave coming in.

Here are the articles I wrote for BRAINZ.

Time For A Pronoun Paradigm Shift?
During a recent large online meeting, I felt different. Like I didn’t get the memo saying: “Post pronouns beside your name.” If all those talented Harvard alumni women posted their pronouns, I should too, right? Me2.

Top Ways Leaders Manage Conflict And Reduce the Stress Response
Nested within a wide circle of family, colleagues, and community systems, we humans find health, happiness, and meaningful purpose. And sometimes, friction.

It's All In Your Head – Cultivating Conscious Conversations
When you inaccurately imagine something, “It’s all in your head.” It’s also what the car mechanic thinks when you complain about that clicking sound that mysteriously disappears during the inspection.
04
What’s Worse? Scary Movie 3 Or “We Have To Talk”?
Does “We Have to Talk” trigger an inner primal scream? Perhaps you’ve heard these ominous 4-words from...
The Boss: “I have some feedback”
A Partner: “It’s me, not you”
Garage Mechanic: “It’s the transmission”
Child's teacher: “About their behavior”

Do You Have A Clearing Disorder?
Have you ever complained about busy work distracting you from strategic, high-impact projects and planning? You’re not alone!

Silence Your Perfectionista
Did you get all that? If English is your native language, most likely you understood it, errors and all. Spelling mistakes did not materially impact the outcome.
