Cherri Jacobs Pruitt, founder of CJ Connections and Producer and Host of The Power of Partnership Podcast, has dedicated her life’s work to the belief that care and connection are the most powerful tools for healing ourselves, our communities, and our planet.
As a Cultural Transformation Educator and Consultant, Cherri catalyzes systemic change by empowering individuals, organizations, and communities through education, facilitation, and the application of partnership principles. She brings decades of leadership experience in public health and policy at the local, state, regional, and federal levels. An experienced facilitator, she is skilled in helping shift systems from domination to partnership and serves as a Safe Conversations Dialogue Leader through Quantum Connections.
Through her extensive career in public service, community leadership, equity-focused facilitation, and personal growth, Cherri has witnessed both the harm of disconnection and the regenerative power of authentic human connection.
In June 2024, she founded CJ Connections to help communities and organizations become more relationally healthy. Prior to launching CJ Connections, she created The Power of Partnership Podcast as a project of Dr. Riane Eisler’s Center for Partnership Systems, showcasing global best practices in implementing partnership-based approaches across sectors and all aspects of life.
