Magic in the Room #92: Living Purpose - The Institute for Shelter Care with Jeanne Allert

Mar 09, 2022
When we listen to other people’s stories, we may realize there are challenges in the world that are bigger than ourselves. Sometimes we are compelled to take on these challenges and change the world around us. In this episode of Magic in the Room, Hannah and Chris are joined by guest Jeanne Allert, who tells her story of living a purpose-driven life by making sure victims of sex trafficking have access to qualified, compassionate care through The Samaritan Women Institute for Shelter Care.

Jeanne L. Allert, Ph.D. is the Founder and Executive Director of The Samaritan Women Institute for Shelter Care. In 2007 Jeanne was convicted to leave the trappings of a lucrative career as an Internet consultant to establish one of the first long-term restorative care programs in the Mid-Atlantic for victims of domestic sex trafficking. She immersed herself in learning—mostly from survivors themselves—and created TSW-ISC’s unique Care Model. Over the years TSW expanded its service and took on several national research projects. In 2018-2019 she led the organization through a major shift to create the Institute of Shelter Care, which leverages the expertise of TSW-ISC and industry peers across the country to train and mentor new shelter programs in the areas of greatest need.

In this Magic in the Room episode, Hannah, Chris, and Luke discuss a new skill: creating an environment of commitment and accountability. The core idea in this conversation is that people can only be accountable if they know what they are committed to. People can hold themselves accountable once we have a common understanding of commitments. To download the free guide that goes with this episode, subscribe below:

In today's episode of Magic in the Room, we continue our series on leading a team with the foundational skill leaders must have: the ability to build trust. It may sound cliche, but trust is the foundation of a high-performing team. In fact, Luke and Hannah argue that dogs have better lives and fewer people die when teams have high trust! When teams don't have trust, the result is lower performance, lower well-being, and ultimately, people leave. If you focus on one thing as a leader, it should be building trust.
