In this powerful episode of My Simplified Life, host Michelle Glogovac sits down with advocate and community leader Lauren Lehman Carter to explore what it means to find your voice in today's complex world. Together, they dive into the intersections of personal identity, boundary-setting, and the emotional labor of activism. From grassroots organizing to the realities of politics in daily life, this conversation unpacks how women can create meaningful change while navigating their own growth. Michelle and Lauren also discuss the role of social media in modern advocacy, the importance of supportive communities like The PERSIST. Network, and how to stay grounded while fighting for what matters. If you're passionate about social justice, personal development, and using your voice for impact, this episode is for you. What We're Talking About... Advocacy is about using your voice to make a difference. Personal growth often involves shedding the need for approval. Setting boundaries is essential for mental health and service. The PERSIST. Network empowers individuals to engage in advocacy. Politics permeates every aspect of our lives, making it essential to discuss. Women's rights and education are critical issues in advocacy. Finding your voice in activism can be a challenging but rewarding journey. Social media can amplify advocacy efforts but requires careful navigation. Balancing personal life with activism is a common struggle for advocates. Authenticity in sharing experiences can resonate deeply with others.

What if doing the most good was simpler—and more within reach—than you ever imagined? In this powerful episode of The Greatness Machine, Darius is joined by world-renowned moral philosopher Peter Singer for a conversation that will challenge how you think about ethics, generosity, and your role in making the world better. Peter, best known for his groundbreaking work “The Life You Can Save,” shares thought-provoking insights on effective altruism, the moral obligations of those living in affluence, and how small, intentional actions can create ripple effects of real change. From fighting global poverty to advocating for animal rights, Peter's work has inspired millions to rethink their impact—and today, he might just do the same for you.

He founded Monash University's Centre for Human Bioethics, co-founded Animals Australia, and established the nonprofit The Life You Can Save. Recognized as Australian Humanist of the Year in 2004, he is considered one of Australia's most influential public intellectuals.

Feeling overwhelmed is not a reason to overreact or act in a way that isn't in line with your core values. If you don't know what to do, it's okay to say "I don't know what to do," and perhaps all the reason to postpone doing anything until you have more clarity. With enough time, your core principles and moral compass help you find true north, the middle path, and peace with whatever decision you make.

In this powerful episode of My Simplified Life, host Michelle Glogovac sits down with former Congresswoman Marie Newman to discuss her inspiring journey from grassroots activism to the halls of Congress. Newman opens up about how her daughter's experiences fueled her passion for change, what it truly takes to run for office as a woman, and how personal storytelling can shift political narratives. The conversation covers the emotional weight of the January 6th insurrection, the systemic challenges women face in leadership, and the urgent need for civic engagement. Listeners will walk away motivated to speak up, get involved, and help shape a more inclusive future. What We're Talking About... Marie Newman entered politics to fight for her daughter's rights and future. The political system remains deeply challenging—and often hostile—for women candidates. Grassroots activism plays a critical role in driving real community change. Storytelling isn't just emotional—it's strategic and essential in shifting political narratives. The January 6th insurrection marked a defining moment in America's democratic crisis. We need more women in elected office—not just as a goal, but as a necessity for true representation. Political success is never a solo journey—community backing makes all the difference. The political arena is riddled with unethical tactics and behind-the-scenes power plays. Constructive dialogue with Republican leaders is necessary, even when it's uncomfortable. Newman reflects that she's more effective and impactful as an activist than she ever felt in Congress.

Mark Skipper continues the good conversation all about Faces of Rebellion, his artistic mission to lend his voice to the climate crisis at hand. We talk everything from community-building rallies and protests to how he sees himself as an artist in this world to the people who have inspired him to make the change he wants to see. We learned so much speaking with Mark and here's one of the most important parts: every single one of us has something to give and that something we each give uplifts others, makes us all feel a little less alone, and creates the much-needed community we all definitely want so much more of.

We've known for decades that the 'Yell, Tell and Sell' strategy of belittling people, endeavouring to cajole—or shame—them into some kind of change doesn't work - in fact it can't work.  It's not how we're wired.  Cognitive neuroscience has been telling us this for decades but it's only recently that people have begun to listen. One of those who has been speaking in the wilderness for a long time—and is now finally being heard—is this week's guest, Renée Lertzman. Dr. Renée Lertzman is a researcher, advisor and strategist who translates relational psychology to change our approach to our planetary crisis. Applying her graduate training as a psychosocial researcher, she designs frameworks and methods, grounded in public health, clinical psychology and neurosciences, that guide people to take action and create impact on climate and sustainability issues. Over the past two decades, Renée has worked with global leaders, startups, governments, and mission-driven companies—including Google, IKEA, the California Academy of Sciences, and WWF—helping them navigate the emotional complexities of climate engagement. She's also the founder of Project InsideOut, an initiative that equips changemakers with psychologically grounded resources for collective transformation.This is the key to our survival. We need to learn how to engage ourselves and each other in ways that will transform ourselves and each other. We need to bring serious emotional literacy to the table so that we can create the containers, and attune to the anxieties and aspirations of people around us. We need, above all, to equip people to make sustained and sustainable change.  This is the core of Renée's work and hearing her talk about it in depth is the first step to making it happen.  Enjoy!Learn more at reneelertzman.com and projectinsideout.net.Renée on LinkedIn https://www.linkedin.com/in/reneelertzman/Renée's TED talk https://www.ted.com/talks/renee_lertzman_how_to_turn_climate_anxiety_into_action

When news broke that Trump’s senior military leadership had used an unsecured group chat to share sensitive information, the consequences were more than political—they were personal. For Kendall Brown, content creator, digital strategist, and a military spouse, the scandal known as SignalGate hit home: her husband’s life was directly endangered by the breach in protocol. Outraged, Kendall recorded a video of herself calling her senator’s office and demanding accountability. The clip went viral, drawing major media attention—and a wave of backlash. But while the threats and hate came in fast, Kendall, known for her sharp wit and thick skin, was more irritated by how unoriginal and not funny the trolls were. In this candid and surprisingly funny conversation with Bridget, Kendall shares what it’s like to live with the real-life consequences of political negligence. They dive into her experience as a military spouse, the realities of online activism, and what many on the left often get wrong about military families.

How could the SAVE Act send us tumbling back to the Suffragette era? This bill that's pending review in the Senate could jeopardize voting access for up to 69 million American women. It would require all voters to prove citizenship with a passport or birth certificate in order to register to vote, which is a big problem for anyone who's name has changed since birth—including through marriage—as well as anyone who doesn't have easy access to such documentation.In this episode, I take a closer look at whether the concern from women and voter rights activists across the country is legitimate or overblown.
