What does a lifetime of leadership look like?
In this episode of WAHNcast’s 50 Over 50 Women of Influence in Affordable Housing series, Jennifer Green sits down with Laura Archuleta, President and CEO of Jamboree Housing, for a thoughtful conversation about the experiences that shaped nearly four decades in affordable housing.
Laura reflects on how her family’s own housing journey inspired her career, why staying curious opened doors she never expected, and how meaningful connections have shaped both her leadership and her organization’s growth. She also shares why, after 37 years in the industry, she feels a deep responsibility to help develop the next generation of affordable housing leaders.
From mentorship and family to kindness, collaboration, and lifelong learning, this episode is a reminder that the most meaningful careers aren’t built by having every step planned. They’re built by staying curious, investing in people, and finding ways to contribute along the way.
