JAWS CAMP 2025 Session: Reimagining Wellbeing, Leadership & Longevity with Randi Braun
Randi Braun
(WASHINGTON, DC) - Join us this year for JAWS CAMP 2025! JAWS’ 40th Anniversary Conference and Mentoring Program (CAMP) will be held September 5-7, 2025 at The Royal Sonesta Hotel in Washington, DC’s Dupont Circle neighborhood.
JAWS will host a session at this year’s conference with Randi Braun, the Wall Street Journal Best-Selling Author of Something Major: The New Playbook for Women at Work, a speaker, and CEO of the leadership coaching and advisory firm, Something Major. This session empowers attendees to increase their energy, motivation, and fulfillment at work.
Optimized for high performers whose worlds operate six minutes at a time, participants will gain:
● A New Understanding: of the Self Care Myths that hold high performers back and how to break out of them
● Actionable Tools and Tactics: for shifting your mindset and resetting your priorities when you’re stressed and overwhelmed
● Leadership Insights: for changing patterns and setting a tone on your own team that “walks the walk” on work/life balance... without sacrificing deadlines and deliverables in the process
Specializing with women and working moms, Randi is a certified executive coach, consultant, and speaker. An expert at helping women leaders thrive in demanding, unpredictable, high-performance, and high-volume environments, she has worked with a diverse slate of institutional and individual clients; coaching leaders--and their teams--across the Fortune 500, Capitol Hill, professional services (big law, PR, consulting), tech, entrepreneurship, government relations and advocacy, medicine, financial services and real estate investment firms, start-ups, non-profits, the arts, and trade associations.
What happens at CAMP? This will be JAWS’ 40th CAMP. While the format and size have varied over the years, the goal has not: to bring women journalists together from different specialties, beats, demographics and geographies to share with, learn from and empower each other. There will be structured presentations and workshops, planned social events and free time for unstructured relationship-building and city exploration. The CAMP Site Selection Committee chose Washington, DC based on feedback from members urging a balance between an urban setting allowing easier travel with access to a get-away-from-it-all vibe. The committee also took into account the venue’s capacity, support for conferences, cost and central location.
