Following her passion for art and math, Elizabeth Graziolo decided that getting into an engineering university was an excellent way to leave her house. She was a teenager that just immigrated to the US, but dealing with puberty and starting to build her future didn't seem much for her; in fact, it was one of her traits - she enjoyed challenging herself. She got into the Cooper Union's Architecture program, which she thought she'd use to get into The Albert Nerken School of Engineering, Cooper Union's largest engineering school. But after a semester of Architecture, she fell in love with it. The feeling was mutual; Elizabeth became an award-winning architect and built an outstanding career, which she is sharing with us today. Elizabeth Graziolo is the Founder and Principal of Yellow House Architects, PLLC. She is the recipient of the "City of Design Award," a distinction awarded by the Museum of The City of New York in 2018. Elizabeth is also a trustee of The Museum of the City of New York and The Cooper Union for the Advancement of Science & Art and serves on the Delano & Aldrich/Emerson Fellowship Committee of the American Institute of Architects.In this episode, we explore Elizabeth's successful journey into a male-dominated industry. We talk about her mentors and what she learned after school when she started doing the real thing. We also go through her decision of leaving a great job in a great company where she had become a partner to start her own architecture company. Elizabeth also shares the projects she most enjoyed working on, her opinion on general contractors, and her advice for those interested in joining the construction industry.Some Questions I Ask:How did you get into architecture?

Jack: The conference started in Hawaii back when there was STC region seven and eight. We had a combined conference in Hawaii in the year 2000 and everyone kept saying, "I can't wait till year." I'm going, "There is no next year. Hmmm. Maybe there's an opportunity here, but what's my niche?" Right? There's the STC conference. There was Win Writers at the time. I said, "There's not enough conferences with us, with a little gray in our temples." Jack: I did a content strategy conference and content documentation management, and that worked and we had it in Hawaii. That's why it's called LavaCon. That worked until the market crash in 2008. After that, I brought the conference to mainland U.S. cities, but I wanted to keep that aloha spirit that we were known for. The local music, the local foods,

Wish you knew how to actualize the potential of your teams? You're in for a treat because, today, Ellen Burts-Cooper is with me. Ellen is one of my favorite educators on cohesive, agile team performance, and she's going to share her approach to creating high-performing teams.  One of the reasons I love Ellen's work is she focuses on both style and systems. It's easy to over-index on style as it's more provocative, but without good systems, we dilute our strength.  What will you walk away with?  A methodology for co-creating team norms and working agreements. The ready-made recipe to run a Team Reunion; a concept I love!  I'm convinced we all need to host one with our teams in the immediate future.   Ellen is the senior managing partner of Improve Consulting and Training Group (http://improveconsulting.biz/) and is on faculty at Case Western Reserve University in the Weatherhead Executive Education Program and The Institute for Management Studies (IMS). She's written two books: “aMAZEing Organizational Teams: Navigating 7 Critical Attributes for Cohesion, Productivity and Resilience” and “Canine Instinct: A Guide to Survival and Advancement in Corporate America.” You can connect with her directly on LinkedIn.    The 10X Impact podcast is a production of 10X Leadership Lab. 10X Leadership Lab exists to transform business into a vehicle that elevates humanity through conscious leadership, stakeholder win-win, thriving culture, and higher purpose.

Episode #16 - Dr. Steven Kuchuck - The Relational Revolution Hey everyone! Welcome back to Why in the World. If you know anything about me, you know that I tend to be a bit of a nerd when it comes to reading and learning about psychoanalysis. I'm particularly drawn to what is known as Relational Psychoanalysis, which emerged in the 1980's and has continued to evolve ever since. So when Dr. Steven Kuchuck agreed to be a guest on my podcast, my inner nerd started break dancing!    I'm excited about this episode! It was a true pleasure talking with Dr. Kuchuck about his new book The Relational Revolution in Psychoanalysis and Psychotherapy. Dr. Kuchuck is a leading teacher and scholar of relational thinking and President of the International Association for Relational Psychoanalysis and Psychotherapy. He is on the faculty of the New York University Postdoctoral Program in Psychotherapy and Psychoanalysis as well as various other institutes.    In addition to all of this, he is also just a joy to talk to.    In his new book he writes: “In Relational and other contemporary, two-person perspectives, the analyst's expertise is measured by the extent to which she can facilitate exploration of the intersubjective dynamics of a treatment in order to help the patient gain better understanding of older, formative relationships, internalizations, repetitions, and barriers to desired change. In a successful treatment, ‘co-created old truths are replaced with co-created new truths'.    I hope you enjoy my conversation with Dr. Steven Kuchuck…   Find Dr. Kuchuck online: Twitter: @stevenkuchuck  Facebook Author Page: Dr. Steven Kuchuck Website: www.stevenkuchuck.com His New Book: The Relational Revolution in Psychoanalysis & Psychotherapy   Links: Relationally Focused Psychodynamic Therapy (RFPT) - Post-grad continuing education program for psychotherapists that I teach in and mentioned in the intro of this episode.

Relationally Focused Psychodynamic Therapy (RFPT) is an evidence-based treatment approach with strong roots in depth psychology (particularly contemporary Relational Psychoanalysis), dialogical philosophy, and neuroscience. As of December 2018, the Society for the Advancement of Psychotherapy has set forth policy recommendations that evidence-based therapy relationships and responsiveness be taught as frequently as other evidence-based treatments. (Reference: Norcross, J. C., & Lambert, M. J. (2019). Psychotherapy Relationships that work III. Psychotherapy, 55,4, p. 303-315). The RFPT certificate program is a direct response to these policy recommendations.   Why in the World Podcast on Instagram Bryan Nixon is a psychotherapist and the founder and clinical director of Mindful Counseling GR in Grand Rapids, MI.

In this episode of Walking Distance presented by The Trek and hosted by Blissful Hiker (Alison Young), we are joined by Shalin Desai, a Triple Crowner and Vice President of Advancement at the Appalachian Trail Conservancy (ATC), and Aer Parris, a 2015 PCT thru-hiker who identifies as queer and gender neutral. Desai is also the first person of South Asian descent to become a Triple Crowner, and he also identifies as queer. After their 2015 thru-hike, Parris began blogging for REI, often writing about inclusivity on the trail and advocating for marginalized communities hoping to fit in in the outdoors. Blissful Hiker covers recent efforts for diversity, equity and inclusion, if marginalized communities need advocacy to get outdoors, and how different identities impact hikers on the trail.

Interview with Shalin Desai 0:56 - Trail experiences are infinite, because they're all so personal. I was never looking to find a ‘tribe' or have my identity acknowledged, but for the trail community to let me have my trail experience. 1:50 - More about Shalin Desai 3:20 - How were you introduced to the outdoors? 4:46 - You identify as a queer man. How did you find your trail family, or how did you find your chosen family before hitting the trail? 5:44 - Did you ever have any encounters on your thru-hikes that were disturbing? 8:29 - I wanted to ask you about the affinity groups. You're the first person to introduce the idea of affinity groups for the ATC. Why is it important and how does it work? 12:15 - Is it a concern though that affinity groups might further prejudice and fear of the “other”? 13:00 - Diversity, equity and inclusion - every company and organization talks about these words. What do you think are the biggest hurdles as far as trails and the outdoors now? Interview with Aer Parris 17:40 - Aer Parris' take on fitting in on trail and how to be more inclusive is a bit different. They discovered that it's less about changing how we speak to people who are marginalized, and more about how we understand them. 19:26 - Aer Parris started their 2015 thru-hike articulating their identity. 20:30 - What does it mean to be visibly queer on trail?  22:05 - Was the reason you tried to ‘pass' as cis on the trail because of safety concerns? 23:10 - Did you ever have any experiences that you considered dangerous or disturbing? 23:25 - Your tagline is “Words have the power to change the world. I use mine for forces of good. Sincere, sometimes snarky.” What do those words mean to you? 25:30 - Tell me about your advocacy journalism for REI; it's called Uncommon Path. Do you choose your own topics, and what's the most important to you? 26:30 - Why do you feel that marginalized communities need advocacy to enjoy the outdoors? 28:50 - The conversation about fitting in on the trail is an evolving one. As Shalin Desai pointed out, we're flying the airplane as we build it. I certainly want to hear your thoughts on the subject. You can always contact us at walkingdistance@thetrek.co.  29:40 - Aer challenged my concept of what it means to be a hiker on the trail – not because of their gender or sexual identity but by what they do now as a hiker. Aer is 31 and told me they are happily partnered, have a full time job, house and dog and want to start a family, so long distance thru-hiking is pretty much a thing of the past – but they connect to the outdoors in the way they want to.  Mentioned in this episode: Appalachian Trail Conservancy - Justice, Equity, Diversity and Inclusion Wild East Women ATC Affinity Group Outdoor Afro Affinity Group Latinos Outdoors Affinity Group Brown People Camping Affinity Group Aer Parris blogs on REI How to Read REI's “Uncommon Path” Get all of the Walking Distance Podcast episodes.

In this interview, Professor Katharine Hayhoe, one of climate change's most effective communicators, provides inspired guidance on how to navigate all sides of the conversation on a topic that is currently one of the most politicised and divisive. Katharine discusses her new book Saving Us: A Climate Scientist's Case for Hope and Healing in a Divided World, illustrated her arguments with stories from her personal experiences. Katharine argues we need to go beyond facts and statistics and begin essential climate conversations with shared values, connect the issue to our individual identities, and help inspire collective action. For Katharine,  urgency of action is paramount: “The key conclusion of the IPCC is simply this. Every year counts, every action matters, every choice can make a difference.” Katharine Hayhoe is an atmospheric scientist—and a professor of political science at Texas Tech University, where she is co-director of the Climate Science Center. She has served as lead author on the Second, Third, and Fourth National Climate Assessments. Katharine also hosts and produces the PBS Digital Series, Global Weirding, and serves on advisory committees for a broad range of organizations including the Smithsonian Natural History Museum, the Earth Science Women's Network, and the American Association for the Advancement of Science.

In the second of our fabulous four-part series on Viewing Rural Health, Education, and Business Through an Equity Lens. produced in collaboration with and supported by Grantmakers in Health, Michelle talks with  Heather Dimeris. the Director for the Office for the Advancement of Telehealth (OAT), in the Health Resources and Services Administration (HRSA) at the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services and a Commander in the United States Public Health Service (USPHS); Marilyn Werber Serafini, director of the Health Project at the Bipartisan Policy Center and an adjunct professor at Johns Hopkins University; Mei Wa Kwong  Executive Director for the Center for Connected Health Policy (CCHP), the federally designated National Telehealth Policy Resource Center; and Walter Panzirer, a Trustee at the Helmsley Charitable Trust and grandson of Leona Helmsley. During the pandemic, Dimeris notes, telehealth expanded exponentially in utilization.  In 2020, health centers saw telehealth visits increase to more than 28 million, equating to a nearly 6,000% increase — with more than 5.7 million of these additional telehealth visits occurring in health centers serving rural communities This increase in telehealth services was possible because of the temporary flexibilities with telehealth reimbursement during the pandemic.  She also discussed the many ways that HRSA is seeking to address equity issues in rural areas in the further expansion of telehealth services, including a focus on tele-emergency care last year and on direct-to-consumer care this year,  in 2021. In addition, just last month, HRSA announced funding more than $19 million in key telehealth investments in rural and underserved communities. (Check out telehealth.hhs.gov for more information about telehealth and broadband resources for both patients and providers.) BPC recently conducted a national survey about lessons learned about telehealth use during the pandemic, Serafini notes, which found that about one in seven people (14%) who used telehealth said they would have sought care in an emergency department or urgent care if telehealth was not available, and that more than half of those people had their primary health issue resolved. The survey also found that consumers are likely to use telehealth in the future as it has served as a valuable tool for accessing routine and preventive care during the pandemic, she adds  Kwong says that the pandemic broadened awareness of telehealth and its breadth of utilization, but adds that  while telehealth is a terrific tool for providing these virtual services, it is important to note that many rural residents do not have the capability to access broadband. Panzirer describes how the Helmsley Foundation is funding needed health projects to address equity access in the rural upper Midwest.  This episode and the entire series is sponsored by Grantmakers In Health (GIH),  a nonprofit, educational organization dedicated to helping foundations and corporate giving programs improve the health of all people.

It gives me great pleasure to welcome back to the show the remarkable Kelly Cat-Wells who, since we last spoke has made the "Forbes 30 under 30", gotten engaged (and married - SURPRISE!), and continues to catapult the careers of so many disabled people across the entertainment and sports world.  Only the third time I have welcomed someone back to the show makes this episode that extra bit special but the content we cover is fantastic for anyone lost and drowning in their career to hear. Keely has found a way to enhance her magnificent career and companies, while making time to let love and companionship into her life to find success across all areas! It is important to make time for these particular episodes from time-to-time to remind ourselves of the power a healthy and happy existence away from our career can have on the direction of our career. Keely had to learn the hard way that immersing herself in her career success at the expense of her happiness was a road to long term disappointment, so she made space for it and boy did it pay off! If you didn't listen to the first episode with Keely I encourage you to do so here - https://careercompetitor.libsyn.com/actress-and-disability-activist-keely-cat-wells - so you can learn all about her career trajectory before hearing about her successes today!
