JL Donohue
Throughout my decades-long career as an award-winning, strategic communication professional and professor, I’ve contributed to a diverse array of organizations from large corporations and global communication firms to university and non-profit settings. This rich tapestry of experiences has given me a deep understanding of the nuances of business and communication within varying organizational contexts.
One of the most fulfilling aspects of my professional journey has been designing and delivering educational content that is steeped in experiential learning. I’ve developed and shared this content, both in-person and online, to help individuals and organizations navigate an increasingly complex and dynamic environment. It’s this multifaceted approach to learning and development that I bring to my work as a mindfulness teacher, facilitator, and outdoor guide.
I completed the 160-hour, Science of Mindful Awareness (SOMA) Meditation Teacher Training certification program from The Mindfulness Center, a U.S.-based, nonprofit wellness institute. I’m also a certified Level 1 Kripalu Mindful Outdoor Guide, as well as hold certificates in Wilderness First Aid and CPR/AED. In addition, I’ve studied Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction (MBSR) created by Jon Kabat-Zinn, Ph.D., as well as taken courses developed by Jack Kornfield, Ph.D., and Tara Brach, Ph.D., like Becoming a Mindfulness Meditation Teacher, The Power of Awareness, and Mindfulness Meditation: The Fundamentals.
