This week on the Empowering Industry Podcast, Charli is shaking things up with an in-person interview featuring Michael J. Fiedler, photographer and creator of Working Journal.
Michael discovered his passion for photography more than 30 years ago while serving as a Naval Photojournalist aboard the aircraft carrier Dwight D. Eisenhower. His distinct documentary style captures the individuality and uniqueness of people in their vocational settings, from CEOs in boardrooms to farmers in fields.
In this episode, Michael shares the story behind Working Journal — a project inspired by his Navy experience, his lifelong habit of journaling, and the influential work of Studs Terkel. With over three decades of daily journaling and a career spent documenting people at work, Michael brings a unique perspective on storytelling, vocation, and the human spirit.
