Leadership Without Ego: A conversation with Capt. Willow Bloomquist
Q: What's the story behind that picture?
Willow explains how a dusk drive into work led to a chance encounter with an injured owl named George; the event became an educational moment about wildlife rescue and the impact of human actions on wildlife, which the department used to raise awareness and support for their wildlife recovery partners.
Jennifer Hyland: Walking the Tightrope of Duty and Despair
Q: What did walking the tightrope mean to you at different stages of your career?
It meant balancing all the competing demands—duty, personal health, authenticity—and recognizing when a path was no longer serving who I was becoming. Over time I learned to drop masks, embrace honesty, and push for debriefs and cultural change that valued empathy and mental health.
