My Sunday ‘To Be’ List

by BROOKE BALDWIN

I want “to be” a woman who empowers other women… and teaches them about the power in the HUDDLE.

I want “to be” vulnerable and courageous as often as possible.

I want “to be” an ever better friend, partner, daughter, sister.

I want “to be” increasingly present which means putting my damn phone down more.

I want “to be” someone who approaches her day always through the lens of gratitude.

I want “to be” a leader who practices what she preaches.

Brooke Baldwin is a best-selling author, veteran journalist, and Peabody Award finalist. She established herself as a household name while hosting her own live daily news show on CNN for more than a decade, where she captured the audience’s attention with her unique combination of authenticity and empathy. During her time at the network, Baldwin was often sent into the field to cover the biggest, breaking news stories in the U.S. and around the globe. She had the privilege of meeting Presidents and interviewing former first ladies, members of Congress, scientists, teachers, nurses, astronauts, actors, activists, rock stars and ordinary Americans in extraordinary circumstances – from surviving mass shootings to extreme weather to COVID-19. She also anchored extensive coverage of the Obama and Trump administrations and has reported on stories from Europe, Africa, Asia, and the Middle East. Baldwin recently published her best-selling debut book, Huddle: How Women Unlock Their Collective Power (Harper Collins, April 2021), which explores the “phenomenon of women ‘huddling’–in the workplace, politics, activism, Hollywood, sports, and everyday friendships–to support one another and make lasting change.”
