I am so thrilled to have had the chance to connect with Allison Davis Maxon, a name that is truly synonymous with expertise in child welfare and children's mental health. Allison's insights and contributions to the fields of developmental trauma and adoption are nothing short of transformative. Not only does Allison hold the position of Executive Director at the National Center on Adoption and Permanency, she also brought her expertise to Hollywood, serving as a foster care consultant for the heartwarming Paramount Pictures movie Instant Family! If you haven't already, I highly suggest that you go watch it! Throughout our conversation, we discuss the concepts which she explores in her co-authored book, Seven Core Issues in Adoption and Permanency, a book that is truly a must-read for anyone interested in understanding the complex world of adoption and permanency!  I have been a longtime admirer of Allison's work and am so happy to share this platform with her. Her dedication and knowledge are truly inspiring, and if I sound like a fangirl during our chat, it's because I wholeheartedly am. Join us as we cover some enlightening ground, diving into the world of developmental trauma and the importance of creating lasting bonds and secure attachments in adoptive families. While I don't want to give too much away, I assure you that this episode is filled with valuable insights and heartfelt discussions, so if you are at all curious about fostering healing and connection in children's lives or want to hear directly from a leader shaping the future of child welfare, this is an episode that you most definitely will not want to miss! Highlights: [1:36] - Allison points out how it's important to support each other, to keep learning, and to connect with like-minded people on the frontlines. [3:07] - Allison shares how she fell into this work by accident, learning as much from the kids as they did from her. [6:00] - Children in foster care struggle to trust due to constant changes, but they need stability and belonging. [7:43] - It is hard to be trusted by youth when you know that you won't be there long-term.

[11:06] - Allison brings her best by being self-aware, understanding trauma, and supporting children with authenticity and presence. [14:11] - “Bumping into ghosts" helps explain reactions, as past trauma can trigger emotional responses in the present.

[16:04] - Allison teaches adults to manage stress to help children de-escalate, using physical outlets to release emotions.

[36:26] - Hear how a young person felt safe enough with Allison to share her story, prompting a two-year healing journey. [39:00] - Foster children suffer trauma from instability; offering choices empowers them and helps manage anger. [42:57] - There is a difficulty in avoiding power struggles and vicarious trauma while supporting children. [44:10] - Supporting children in care requires validating feelings and offering consistent, unconditional commitment without quick fixes.

To Know the Soul of a People: Religion, Race, and the Making of Southern Folk (Oxford UP, 2022) is a history of religion and race in the agricultural South before the Civil Rights era. Jamil W. Drake chronicles a cadre of social scientists who studied the living conditions of black rural communities, revealing the abject poverty of the Jim Crow south. These university-affiliated social scientists documented shotgun houses, unsanitary privies and contaminated water, scaly hands, enlarged stomachs, and malnourished bodies. However, they also turned their attention to the spiritual possessions, chanted sermons, ecstatic singing, conjuration, dreams and visions, fortune-telling, taboos, and other religious cultures of these communities. These scholars aimed to illuminate the impoverished conditions of their subjects for philanthropic and governmental organizations, as well as the broader American public, in the first half of the 20th century, especially during the Great Depression. Religion was integral to their efforts to chart the long economic depression across the South. From 1924 to 1941, Charles Johnson, Guy Johnson, Allison Davis, Lewis Jones, and other social scientists framed the religious and cultural practices of the black communities as "folk" practices, aiming to reform them and the broader South. Drawing on their correspondence, fieldnotes, and monographs, Drake shows that social scientists' use of "folk" reveals the religion was an important site for highlighting the supposed mental, moral, and cultural deficits of America's so-called folk population. Moreover, these social scientists did not just pioneer rural social science and reform but used their study of religion to plant the seeds of the concept that would become known as the "culture of poverty" in the latter half of the twentieth century. To Know the Soul of a People is an exciting intellectual history that invites us to explore the knowledge that animated the earnest yet shortsighted liberal efforts to reform black and impoverished communities. Joseph Stuart is a scholar of African American history, particularly of the relationship between race, freedom rights, and religion in the twentieth century Black Freedom Movement.

Allison Davis joins us today from New Mexico, USA. Allison is a counsellor, educator and researcher of maternal mental health. Today we discuss the ecological domain of matrescence - learning to approach the challenges and struggles with a viewpoint of growth and transformation. We look at how our evolution can mirror the evolutionary processes of nature and how we can align ourselves with nature's desire for growth. Allison's work focuses on the development of mothers' psycho-ecological growth in matrescence, aiming to reframe eco-related distress as resilience, and offering a path through the mental health dangers of idealised 'green motherhood' towards lifestyles that are psychologically healthy, and ecologically sustainable. Through articulation and application of an ecofeminist-informed developmental approach, she fosters ecological thinking and contact with nature for psychotherapeutic healing and growth.She works in private practice at Mother Nature Therapy, teaches in the Master of Counseling program at Alliant International University, and researches in the Maternal Psychology Lab at Teachers College, Columbia University.

I'm sure you've heard it before: underpromise and overdeliver. But is that really the best way to do business? Or does it just give us a permission slip for self-exploitation? When does overdelivering become overcompensating? And when does being generous just morph into entrepreneurial martyrdom? I sat down with sales coach Allison Davis to talk about overdelivering, generosity, and when it all gets to be too much.

In 2020, photographer Allison Davis embarked on an incredible journey. Our conversation was so inspiring and her story will blow your minds - I am honestly at a loss for words trying to sum it up. She hit the road to search for beauty during the global pandemic and set out to photograph the entire west coast in 30 days - which she freakin' DID and is now selling a coffee-table book filled with hundreds of pages of beautiful landscape photography and her words during the experience. We hear some of her stories from the road, what the experience was like, a bit of the publication process, her plans for the future... we are SO GRATEFUL she shared her heart with us.

Truthfully, I'm not sure I can define abundance succinctly. What it means to me is a present knowing that I am enough, that I have enough, and that there is enough time, attention, and support to live a meaningful life and do meaningful work. I can't say that this is my mindset at all times—far from it. But in the times when I'm feeling most hopeless or desperate, it's the mindset that I eventually bring myself back to. It's the Truth that's guided difficult decisions and unlocked completely unexpected paths forward. An abundance mindset—when I'm truly in it—shifts my perception and presents new possibilities. Maybe one way to think about it is that an abundance mindset isn't so much an answer to the problems of scarcity, urgency, and precarity, but a series of questions that remind you there is always a way forward. Throughout this month, my goal has been to speak some of those questions out loud. Hopefully, you've experienced at least a small shift in perception as a result. Today, we'll round out this series with 3 more stories about interesting questions and new ways forward. You'll hear from sales coach Allison Davis, business strategist AnnMarie Rose, and Athena Village founder Kelly Pratt. Listen for the shift in perception that allowed them to see a new possibility for their work and businesses.

Allison Davis a photographer from San Diego who recently made a book about photographing the west coast of America in 30 days during the pandemic. We chat about Allison's wedding career that was left in tatters, and how she very quickly decided to make use of the time she found herself with. "Actively pursuing a different story" She went on a 30-day solo trip to the west coast of America to photograph the coast and the resulting images were made into a beautiful coffee table book. Through wildfires, closures, and camping in her car for 30 days, she made the trip in the most cost-effective way given the circumstances. Revealed at the edge is the resulting book. We talk through the process of pursuing a Kickstarter as a way of funding the book . Allison is a very driven, talented, and delightful photographer who brought to life a beautiful book in difficult times. She is an inspiration to us all. Official Website: www.RevealedattheEdge.comInstagram: www.instagram.com/allisondavis.photographyInstagram: www.instagram.com/revealedattheedgeWedding & Portrait Photography Website: www.AllisonDavisPhotography.comhttps://www.kickstarter.com/projects/revealedattheedge/west-coast

Our modern dominant cultures for too long have trivialised motherhood experiences and practices, jeopardising the wellbeing and safety of mothers as they undergo various emotional, physical, social and mental challenges that come with transitioning to motherhood. As like any other social figure, and individual, mothers deserve respect, support and care by systems of power and society, but since most cultures assign the role of the primary care giver to mothers, the urgency to provide holistic maternal support is strengthening for a world which is becoming increasingly volatile. In this episode, we are joined by Dr Allison Davis to share with us her deepened understanding of the role that mothers play as environmental stewards, due to their standpoint in the world, and the need for mothers to reimagine motherhood for themselves for sustained personal and planetary health. Dr. Allison Davis is a researcher, writer, counselor, and educator of maternal mental health. With an ecofeminist-informed, strength-based developmental framework she helps mothers challenge and reenvision motherhood norms and practices in pursuit of personal and planetary wellness. Her upcoming book The 6 Initiations of Earth-Honoring Motherhood: A Nature-Guided Rite-of-Passage for New Mothers weaves together modern research and ancient wisdom to help new mothers root into who they are and who they are becoming. Allison is in private practice in New Mexico where she specializes in trauma resolution through nature-centered expressive therapies. She's also affiliate faculty at Alliant University where she teaches in the Masters of Clinical Counseling Program. As a writer Allison explores “mother praxis” the possibility of a dynamic interplay between the theory and practice of mothering as mothers can reflect on harmful structures while also finding liberatory ways to work with and through them. As a researcher she focuses on bringing an applied psychoecological lens to maternal mental health, investigating how mothering in a time where we're increasingly aware of humanity's ecocidal behavior has profound implications for maternal mental health andhow we can create structures to support mothers within this experience. Mothers outside of New Mexico can work with Allison through her support sessions to explore the growth and growing pains within motherhood as an ecological awakening. She also offers consultation to mother-supporting professionals and organizations who want to attune to ecological interactions in understanding maternal mental health as well as health care delivery. You can learn more by visiting her at www.motherpraxis.com and following her Instagram page @motherpraxis. Find the episode show notes, transcripts and resources at mindfullofeverything.com.

In Ep. 57, Marisa Donnelly dives into conversation with Allison Davis, award-winning photographer & creator of Revealed at the Edge.

We may recognise, acknowledge, and seek to explore biological, psychological, and sociological dimensions that are involved in the transition to motherhood and experience of being a mother – but what about the ‘environmental'? Our environment and our relationship to the natural world is a critical lens through which we can interpret, explore, and understand our experience of Motherhood. This conversation is with Dr Allison Davis, a researcher, writer, counselor, and educator of maternal mental health. With an ecofeminist-informed, strength-based developmental framework she helps mothers challenge and reenvision motherhood norms and practices in pursuit of personal and planetary wellness. She's also affiliate faculty at Alliant University where she teaches in the Masters of Clinical Counseling Program. Allison explores ‘mother praxis', which is the possibility of a dynamic interplay between the THEORY and the PRACTICE of mothering, and in this conversation we explore what it means to bring in the environment through eco-therapy as a way of thinking about motherhood, and supporting Mothers. Allison invites us to consider a new way of thinking about the ‘motherwound' through our attachment to nature, and we reflect on the ways our children can open up possibility for our own ecological awakening. . . .

Isabel Wilkerson is an intimidating guest. She’s a former New York Times reporter, Pulitzer Prize recipient, Guggenheim fellow, and hands-down one of the best writers of our time. Her 2010 book The Warmth of Other Suns, a beautiful narrative history of the Great Migration, was a landmark achievement, and remains one of the all-time most recommended books on this show.    Wilkerson worked for years on her new book, Caste: The Origins of Our Discontents, which grapples with a question that has become all the more relevant in recent months: What does America look like when the myths we tell ourselves about who we are, who we’ve been, and what we’ve created fall away? How should we understand the way the racial hierarchies of our past still shape our present?   Caste is a book built around a big theory: that America is a caste system and that, to understand it, we need to drop our sense of exceptionalism and analyze ourselves the way we analyze caste systems in other countries. But it is also a book built around dozens — hundreds — of smaller stories. Wilkerson’s genius as a writer is her ability to connect the macro and the micro, to tell you the big story of what happened but to make that story matter by linking it to the lives of those who survived it. That is, to me, her unique contribution: What in the hands of another writer would feel like an abstraction attains, in her work, the vividness and emotional power of lived experience.    This is a big conversation, and it’s not always an easy one. But it is one you will not forget. References: My conversation with David Williams on why Covid-19 is so deadly for Black America Book recommendations: Annihilation of Caste by B.R.

This may be an unpopular opinion but I didn’t gain success in my business from being good. Sure that is a huge reason of why people like my work, but that sometimes isn’t enough for people to buy.I gained success because I’m not afraid to sell. It doesn’t matter if you have a great product or service, if you do not know how to sell it. That’s why this month, I’m chatting with a few dynamic women on how to sell.I’m talking about one of my favorite things selling with the lovely Allison Davis. Random Fact, I met Alison at the Create Cultivate Small Business Summit last October in line for breakfast. I loved her suit lol.But I digress, Selling is definitely a skill that can be cultivated and honestly a non-negotiable in any business. Here is a little bit more about Alison: Allison is a creative and thoughtful sales leader who brings a deep sense of curiosity and integrity to her work. After 16 years in the publishing industry, Allison transitioned to sales training and consulting for companies and 6 & 7 figure mission driven entrepreneurs who are changing the world, where she felt she could have the greatest impact.She believes in a consultative and heart-based approach to selling — being authentic and building relationship is the very best way to grow your business. And she does so with the A.L.I.G.N. method.She's brought her energy and empathic sales acumen to companies like National Geographic, Time Out North America, and Gabrielle Bernstein, Inc. Speaking of Gabby Bernstein, Alison handled brand sponsorships, Gabby’s affiliate program and other sales projects.During the episode we talked about:What was greater: the fear of starting over or staying in a traditional 9 to 5 settingThere isn’t a one size fits all method to selling: me and Allison chatted about our different selling techniques and it was an eye-opening experienceThe importance of a call to action and why you need to get on the phone with a potential clientThe idea of “Features Tell, Benefits Sell”What are pain pointsHow to overcome objections in your sells callsI’m telling you this is a goodie!

Allison Davis (1902-1983) was a pioneering anthropologist who did ground-breaking fieldwork in the Jim Crow south,  challenged the racial bias of IQ tests, and became the first African American to be tenured at the University of Chicago. And yet despite these contributions Davis's work is little read today. The Lost Black Scholar: Resurrecting Allison Davis in American Social Thought(University of Chicago Press, 2018) is the first full-length biography of Davis ever written. In it, historian David Varel documents Davis's remarkable life. In this episode in New Books in Anthropology we talk about Davis's collaboration with authors such as W.E.B. Du Bois, Edward Sapir, John Dollard, W. Lloyd Warner Warner, St. Clair Drake, and many others. We also discuss how Davis pioneered concepts such as structural racism and explored the relationship between race and class. David Varel talks about the choices he made as a White academic writing about an African American life, and the importance of widening intellectual genealogies by including 'lost' figures such as Davis. David Varel earned his Ph.D. in history from the University of Colorado, Boulder. The Lost Scholar: Resurrecting Allison Davis in American Social Thought (University of Chicago Press, 2018) is his first book. Alex Golub is an associate professor of anthropology at the University of Hawai‘i at Mānoa.

The Lost Black Scholar: Resurrecting Allison Davis in American Social Thought(University of Chicago Press, 2018) is the first full-length biography of Davis ever written. In it, historian David Varel documents Davis's remarkable life. In this episode in New Books in Anthropology we talk about Davis's collaboration with authors such as W.E.B. Du Bois, Edward Sapir, John Dollard, W. Lloyd Warner Warner, St. Clair Drake, and many others. We also discuss how Davis pioneered concepts such as structural racism and explored the relationship between race and class. David Varel talks about the choices he made as a White academic writing about an African American life, and the importance of widening intellectual genealogies by including 'lost' figures such as Davis. David Varel earned his Ph.D. in history from the University of Colorado, Boulder. The Lost Scholar: Resurrecting Allison Davis in American Social Thought (University of Chicago Press, 2018) is his first book. Alex Golub is an associate professor of anthropology at the University of Hawai‘i at Mānoa. He is the author of the article "Welcoming the New Amateurs: A future (and past) for non-academic anthropologists" as well as other books and articles. Learn more about your ad choices.
