“If you want to get something done in this world that transcends what's already happening, you have to be willing to listen to the people that are trying to hold dearly to how it has been. Become a master bridge builder. Be committed to asking questions such that you understand where the commonality is. Find the common points.” Jennifer Hough on Electric Ladies Podcast At the end of a year where every country and neighborhood seems more divided than ever, and many of us feel like we're walking on eggshells in every conversation, we've found ourselves in uncharted terrain. How can we prevent tightly held agendas, biases and self-interests - conscious or unconscious ones - from derailing meaningful interactions, whether at a dinner table or in the workplace? In my final episode of the year, I'm revisiting a powerful interview with Jennifer Hough, author of “Unstuck,” TEDx speaker and advisor to leaders. In this interview, Jennifer draws on the laws of physics to offer insights into “regenerative conversations” – where we walk away more informed and empowered.   One key takeaway: asking someone “What is important to you?” helps you understand their deepest values and frame conversations in ways that build bridges, not walls. Whether as a parent preparing for a new school year, a professional leading a team, or simply someone looking to strengthen your personal and professional relationships, this episode is filled with actionable wisdom to help you connect more effectively. You'll hear about: How to listen differently to the climate deniers and others afraid of (any) change. What “cognitive dissonance” is and how to transform it. How to talk about climate change in a way that builds bridges. How to incentivize people to see solutions differently. *BONUS* Set yourself up for success in the year ahead As highlighted in my latest piece in Forbes, 2025 holds tremendous potential for women. To seize these opportunities, it's essential to own the space you occupy, own your knowledge and own your expertise.  As we wrap up 2024, I'm leaving you with powerful career advice from Jennifer: Be clear about who you are and your purpose. Work with a mentor or guide to develop both personal and practical skills. Let go of the need to do everything yourself. Accept help at a deeper level than you may be used to, and never stop seeking support. “‘What's the greatest thing that you can do with the skill sets you already have that might leave you feeling fulfilled, that you went to bed that night knowing that you did what you came to the planet for and you woke up in the morning excited about getting up?” Jennifer Hough on Electric Ladies Podcast Read Joan's Forbes articles here.

Dr. Emma O'Brien, Founder of the Global Scrub Choir and Head of Music Therapy at the Royal Melbourne Hospital, on how music builds bridges and how they use it to communicate about the public health issues related to climate change. Ann Friedman, Founder and CEO of Planet Word Museum, about the power of language and how we communicate across various media and formats. Paula Glover, President of the Alliance to Save Energy, on how talking about – increasing – energy  efficiency helps build bridges to solutions to mitigating climate change.

“If you want to get something done in this world that transcends what's already happening, if you want to be a pioneer or a leader and make something new out of what has been…then you have to be willing to listen to the people that are trying to hold dearly to how it has been and who are afraid of how it has been going away. And one has to become a master bridge builder. In order to become a master bridge builder, one has to be so committed to asking questions to drop into a place of understanding such that you understand where the commonality is….Find the common points.” Jennifer Hough on Electric Ladies Podcast Historically devastating hurricanes are wiping communities off the map, courtesy of climate change, and historic private sector and government investments show that clean energy and climate resilience technologies are economic engines. Yet there are still climate deniers and those battling to reverse those investment – even as they praise the jobs created by those investments in their areas. How do we bridge the gap?   Listen to Jennifer Hough, author of “Unstuck,” TEDx speaker and advisor to leaders, explain how to listen differently and talk about these issues differently in this enlightening conversation with Electric Ladies host Joan Michelson. They also share insightful career advice. You'll hear about: How to listen differently to the climate deniers and others afraid of (any) change. What “cognitive dissonance” is and how to transform it. How to talk about climate change in a way that builds bridges. How to incentivize people to see solutions differently. Plus, insightful career advice, such as… “The first piece of advice that I would give is that…(you want to ask yourself or the Universe) ‘What's the greatest thing that you can do with the skill sets you already have that might leave you feeling satisfied, fulfilled, and like you had a life of meaning and that you went to bed that night knowing that you did what you came to the planet for and you woke up in the morning excited about getting up?' Answering that question sometimes takes six months, two weeks. It, it's not something that most people can answer right off the bat. They can answer it sometimes generally, but not specifically. So that would be number one….The second thing is, in order for your glass ceilings to become your floors,…you want to work with someone consistently that's guiding you, 'cause doing it alone is for the birds,….finding someone to work with, man, that's so important.” Jennifer Hough on Electric Ladies Podcast Read Joan's Forbes articles here.

I don’t see my friends unless I organize the hangout and I’m over it! How can I rebuild my connection to my long-distance bestie? My friend thinks I betrayed them, help!  This week we’re answering your friendship dilemmas with Ann Friedman, co-author of Big Friendship: How We Keep Each Other Close. Plus, Ann shares ways to support your friends who are in lousy relationships.  Read the full transcript here.  Need sex or relationship advice?

…We're about to go off. Since what feels like the beginning of time (the 60s) dating companies have promised us that our soulmates are out there waiting for us, and they know just who it is. But in this current late stage hellscape, it's safe to say these companies aren't as altruistic as they seem. Yes, in this episode, Hannah and Maia talk about everyone's least favourite drug: dating apps. It comes down to one question: if dating apps could really find us our soulmate, why is it that we're less horny, and less committal than ever before? Rather than being happily partnered, its appears we've all become rizzless, attention deficit, scaredy-cat sex nerds. Are we in crisis? Tangents include: Vanessa Hudgens' monopoly on the “Disney R&B” market, the “bottle night” guy, and Hannah putting yet another nickel in the Don't Talk About Taylor Swift jar.  Support us on Patreon and get juicy bonus content: ⁠https://www.patreon.com/rehashpodcast⁠ Intro and outro song by our talented friend Ian Mills: ⁠https://linktr.ee/ianmillsmusic SOURCES: Samatha Cole, How Sex Changed the Internet and the Internet Changed Sex, Workman Publishing Company (2022).

Happy holidays! As our team takes some time away for a break, we're re-sharing another part of our "Future of" miniseries that originally aired in March 2022. From the original description: BFF connections have transformed rapidly during the COVID-19 pandemic. FaceTime calls, Zoom happy hours, voice memos, group chats and virtual game nights, in many cases, have reworked our in-person interactions of the past. What does the future of friendship look like? Ann Friedman and Aminatou Sow have been friends for over a decade, twelve years to be exact. Living on opposite coasts for years now, they had a head start on managing a long-distance friendship. Ann, a journalist, essayist and media entrepreneur and Aminatou, a writer, interviewer and cultural commentator, co-wrote “Big Friendship,” a book all about maintaining their close bond. They join for an inspiring conversation about the future of friendship and what it takes to stay connected for the long haul.

“What surprised me was actually how profound, how deep I managed to have this relationship with carbon. Like, because in the end, I found, through the writing and embodying carbon for so long, I found the connections, the  entanglement of carbon across so many aspects of all our lives so illuminating, so surprising. Sometimes I just felt so moved by the wonder of it all, and I still do. Just thinking about it now makes me think, God, it's so wondrous.” Daniella Ortega on Electric Ladies Podcast If you were making a film about carbon, what would it be like? On Electric Ladies Podcast today you'll hear from a woman who actually did that. She's science filmmaker Daniella Ortega, who is co-director of a new, extraordinary documentary called “Carbon: An Unauthorized Biography.” They use a number of super-creative theatrical devices to tell the story, including personifying carbon and using 3D animation. Listen to Daniella Ortega explain on Electric Ladies Podcast in this inspiring conversation with host Joan Michelson, how she came up with the idea and how she and her production team chose how to tell the story of the one element in the universe that is in everything, including us – yet that we are also trying to reduce.   You'll hear: Why they made carbon and woman and how they secured one of the top actresses of the moment to voice “her.” How Daniella came up with the idea and how that was filtered throughout the film. How to communicate climate messages in stories without being preachy or awkward. How she developed an emotional connection to carbon in the process of learning more about it making the film Plus, insightful career advice …. “What I've come to learn about what it is to be a creative person with ambition and wanting to make an impact … I think finding the gaps of where you sit. You have some skills, that's great, but where are the gaps? What do you feel can empower you or make you feel or give you those skills that you need to fill those gaps? And then look to other people or ways in which ways to fill them… (Also) don't be isolated. Connect, connect, connect with those around you, and…don't give your power away, keep your power and try to build on it.” Daniella Ortega on Electric Ladies podcast Read my articles in Forbes about how we talk about the weather, and about developing a new narrative for the climate effort.

“When we're searching for projects to invest in and support, we're really trying to make sure that it's a story that has kind of a balanced narrative. It's not about just talking about what we can do and how we're, how we're winning. It's really making sure that we understand what's at stake and what the impacts are and who the impacts are hitting, and also seeing people in action addressing and dealing with the situation at hand. And I think that's where it's very hard, increasingly hard.” Jill Tidman on Electric Ladies Podcast How do we talk about the climate? The public is experiencing the effects of a warming – boiling – planet more each day with massive wildfires, massive floods and extreme heat, as well as destructive hurricanes and the like. But how do we tell the story of how those events reflect the actions we need to take to avert worse? This is the challenge of today for those of us seeking to save humanity's ability to live on a warming planet. As I wrote in Forbes recently, how we talk about the weather matters. Listen to Jill Tidman, Executive Director of The Redford Center (founded by actor, producer, Robert Redford and his late son James Redford) on Electric Ladies Podcast in this inspiring conversation with host Joan Michelson.   You'll hear: Why stories are vital to massive social, political and economic change. How The Redford Center chooses its projects to motivate action. How to communicate climate messages in stories without being preachy or awkward. How culture can reach people who are disinclined toward the climate change message. Plus, insightful career advice …. “Any time you can find work that aligns with your, your personal values and goals, you're going to excel, you're going to feel better, you're going to be happier, you're going to have more value, you're going to succeed in the ways that I think are probably most meaningful for women. And, and then, I also think, don't be shy. I think that we have a tendency to not ask for what we need or put in an idea forward, um, or, go out on a limb. We don't need to play small. We're in the room, and if you're in the room, be in the room.” Jill Tidman on Electric Ladies podcast Read my articles in Forbes about how we talk about the weather, and about developing a new narrative for the climate effort.

“For anything to happen on a grand scale, we need to have culture supported… Artists are good at planting these seeds, putting the stories out there and for anybody. The key is repetition. So, if you encounter a certain story, certain type of story in the music you listen to, in the articles that you read, in the billboard that you see or the murals that you see when you walk down the street at some point, it creates a frame that you can start to live in and the changes become something that is natural.” Chantal Bilodeai on Electric Ladies Podcast How do we reach the “unconverted” – those who do not yet take the threat of climate change seriously? Maybe culture has some answers, because stories, music, art…culture…touches us in ways nothing else does. This is a critical and timely conversation many of us communications leaders had at the Sun Valley Forum recently too. How do we leverage them to help us talk about the weather differently, as I wrote in Forbes recently? Listen to Sandra Bargman and Chantal Bilodeau, who created, produced and performed the “Earth Intention: A Climate Cabaret,” on Electric Ladies Podcast in this reply of this powerful and inspiring conversation with host Joan Michelson.   You'll hear: Why culture is vital to massive social, political and economic change. How music and the arts move people through “hope.” How to communicate climate messages in stories without being preachy or awkward About using the arts to reach people who may not naturally “get” the climate message, or who may be overwhelmed. Plus, insightful career advice …. “It's never too late to pivot. I think people who are mid-career, women particularly, we always feel like, ‘oh, my time was then,' (but) it is never too late to pivot…And the other thing that reflects my career is, don't feel as though you have to pick one lane. You can pick more than one lane and both of those lanes or more can be successful.” Sandra Bargman on Electric Ladies podcast Read my articles in Forbes about how we talk about the weather, and about developing a new narrative for the climate effort.

Coming through with some thoughts on the intersection of friendship and ambition, covered wagon core (not to be confused with cottagecore!), and ~summer movies~.Following up on our Wilder conversation, we'd like to discuss covered wagon core. See Kim K.'s CR Fashion Book spread “The Pioneer Woman,” Rudy Jude, Salter House, and making jam. Re: actual covered wagons, Conestoga does a luxe wagon and a bar wagon, both, and Pioneer Woman has a roundup of campgrounds with covered wagons.Rainesford Stauffer's “We Should Be Ambitious About Our Friendships” for Elle sparked our convo about friendship ambition—she's also the author of An Ordinary Age: Finding Your Way in a World That Expects Exceptional and the new All the Gold Stars: Reimagining Ambition and the Ways We Strive. We love this tweet about friendship discussion agendas. As for books, this topic calls to mind Courtney Martin's The New Better Off, Kayleen Schaefer's Text Me When You Get Home, Aminatou Sow and Ann Friedman's Big Friendship, and Hua Hsu's Stay True. On our TBR list: Sheila Liming's Hanging Out: The Radical Power of Killing Time. (In the meantime: “The Case for Hanging Out” by Dan Kois for Slate and The Ezra Klein Show episode "The ‘Quiet Catastrophe' Brewing in Our Social Lives.") Bring on the summer movies! Obsessed with Past Lives, itching to see Theater Camp, Joy Ride, Problemista (see also: I Want to Be a Vase by Julio Torres), Red, White, & Royal Blue, Challengers, and, of course, Barbie (all the prophecies, including Margot Robbie in Vogue and Greta Gerwig in Gentlewoman, whet the appetite).Do you have easy, low-pressure ways to keep up with friends?

Welcome back to Relevancy! It's a new season, but we're still the same two friends discussing the existential concerns of our twenties.This episode, we're taking a dive into the topic of adulthood friendship. Through old lenses (like Aristotle's theory of friendship) and new lenses (like the concept of Big Friendship), we begin an examination of the various roles that friendship can play and the ways they can change, and we debate the merits of labelling high-value friendships.That book David keeps referencing: Big Friendship: How We Keep Each Other Close  by Aminatou Sow and Ann Friedman@relevancypodcast on InstagramConnect with us on Instagram @relevancypodcast !

Visit https://truemediasolutions.ca/Dave's Audio Book Recommendation for November 2022Surrender: 40 Songs, One Story - Bono Bono—artist, activist, and the lead singer of Irish rock band U2—has written a memoir: honest and irreverent, intimate and profound, Surrender is the story of the remarkable life he's lived, the challenges he's faced, and the friends and family who have shaped and sustained him. Narrated by the author, Surrender is an intimate, immersive listening experience, telling stories from Bono's early days in Dublin, to joining a band and playing sold out stadiums around the world with U2, plus his more than 20 years of activism. Throughout a remarkable life, music has always been a constant for Bono and in the audiobook, his distinctive voice is interwoven with a very personal soundtrack adding atmosphere and texture to each and every scene. From moments of classic U2 hits to snippets by The Clash, Patti Smith, Verdi, Johnny Cash and Mozart, Surrender also exclusively features clips of newly recorded re imagined versions of U2 songs including ‘Sunday Bloody Sunday', ‘With Or Without You', ‘One', ‘Beautiful Day' and more, glimpsed for the first time on Surrender: 40 Songs, One Story.

Famous Music Venue Goes Sustainable - Erika Wollam-Nichols, The Bluebird Café   “We have staff members who are very, very conscious of sustainability. One of our servers does our recycling…and we've had to really step into how can we find space for those kind of things, even composting…because obviously we have food waste, but our kitchen is not much bigger than the bathroom here.…I would also add that we…. found a local partner here in town (for the merchandise) who prints in town and buys local and buys national product so that we're able to feel like we're building community… with all of that too.” Erika Wollam-Nichols on Electric Ladies Podcast   As you venture out for live performances, including music, you might notice which ones are practicing sustainability, like the renowned Bluebird Café in Nashville, Tennessee. It's a woman-founded and women-led venue that has launched a who's-who of country music stars from Taylor Swift to Garth Brooks and beyond.   Listen to Bluebird Café president Erika Wollam-Nichols explain how they do sustainability – and the history of the club – in this live interview at the Bluebird on Electric Ladies Podcast with host Joan Michelson. You'll hear: How Erika brought her Massachusetts-born passion for sustainability to this landmark in Nashville. How they have solved a range of challenges in going green in such a small and historic venue. Who has played there over the years and why it's such a special place for songwriters. Plus, insightful career advice. And much more! “What I think about in those situations is listening and paying attention….When I came in here and, and just spent time looking around and talking to the staff and just seeing where are the holes, where are the opportunities?....I want to keep a positive attitude and be solution-based as opposed to victim-based….We were closed for 16 months for the pandemic…But that was like, okay. So what's our opportunity with the pandemic? And, and we found some, and we changed some of our operations that we would not have had an easy time changing.” Erika Wollam-Nichols on Electric Ladies podcast   Read Joan's Forbes articles here.

In January 2020, we released an episode with our listeners' stories about when race became a flashpoint in their friendships. Today, we're holding a reunion of sorts – checking back in with those same listeners about the way race, identity, and racism have impacted their friendships since. Antoinette told us she would have handled an interaction with a white coworker much differently today. “It's kind of like with kids… when they're upset with each other, you want them to talk it out and then hug it out and then everything's okay,” she said. “And I think I'm making more peace with the fact that everything might not be okay."”  Since 2020, Matt has met other people who share his background as a Korean adoptee, and a new diverse group of work friends has also made him feel more comfortable. Chrishana and Sarah have grown even closer, despite changes in their personal lives that could have pulled them apart. And Devan, like Antoinette, told us he's more quick to disengage with people who don't share his values. Check out Matt's photo series of other Korean adoptees, Where are you really from?. And Chrishana and Sarah talked about reading Big Friendship, Aminatou Sow and Ann Friedman's book – we recorded an episode with them in the summer of 2020. Plus, the Pandemic Toolkit we mentioned, full of activities and coping mechanisms for stress and isolation, still lives here.

Perley-Ann Friedman is a Canadian author living in the remote paradise island of Koh Lanta, Thailand. She's an avid cat-lover, charity worker, expat, creative artist, and self-confessed “boomer”. She strives to entertain her readers with her life of knowledge, learning and stories. Twenty years ago, Perley-Ann vacationed on a remote island in southern Thailand and decided to retire there. She was in her late 40s, had a successful career in technology, and way too young to think about retirement. Not true! She began to figure it out and came up with a plan that would shape/transform her life so she could retire way out there. She followed her plan and now, 20 years later, can say, she did it. And wants to encourage others to do the same! She loves to share her story, and help others approach life with positivity and intent. Please check out her websites: www.thehappycat.ca for articles and her author website: www.perleyann.com for her books. She believes people can get where they want to go if they strategically plan and move forward with purpose and intent. perleyann@perleyann.com In this episode we talk about: Life on Koh Lanta, Thailand Supporting charities with your giftings Recycling items into works of art Creating strategic plans _____________________________________ Naomi Geidel - Life Purpose & Transition Coach for Creatives Follow me on Instagram: @acreativepurpose Follow me on Facebook: A Creative Purpose Podcast: A Creative Purpose with Naomi Sign up for my weekly support & encouragement here: www.naomigeidel.com --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/a-creative-purpose/message

Today's replay episode is with Ann Friedman, one half of the popular podcast Call Your Girlfriend and now author of the New York Times Bestselling book Big Friendship, a friendship bible on how to keep each other close. This book is authored by both Ann Friedman and Aminatou Sow, (Aminatou has also been a guest on Ctrl Alt Delete, episode number #183 if you fancy going back and listening) and Big Friendship is the story of their own ten-year, complex, loving friendship. They share their highs, lows, and wisdom with honesty, hilarity and compassion. They've weathered life-threatening health scares and long-distance living - and they know: the most important part of a Big Friendship is investing in each other again and again. It's a really fab book on friendship and I recommend grabbing a copy, it's important that we talk more honestly about conversations about friendship and like all other relationships.

We love a good read! Especially if it reinforces the hoes before bros / chicks before dicks philosophy that feels core to our beings. This week we discuss the book Big Friendship by Ann Friedman and Aminatou Sow -- but don't let the word "book" scare you away. We talk about holding hands with friends, what life was like before your partner was supposed to be your best friend, and why friendship is a very, very good thing that we should actually put effort into (and not in a "you go girl" type of way, but because it makes life so much better).  *** More about the podcast:  whatsyournumberpod.com Follow us on INSTAGRAM:  @whatsyournumberpod *** Music is "Paint" and "Good Boy" by No Fancy.

“For anything to happen on a grand scale, we need to have culture supported… Artists are good at planting these seeds, putting the stories out there and for anybody. The key is repetition. So, if you encounter a certain story, certain type of story in the music you listen to, in the articles that you read, in the billboard that you see or the murals that you see...at some point, it creates a frame that you can start to live in and the changes become something that is natural.” Chantal Bilodeai on Electric Ladies Podcast Stories. Music. Art. They move us in some magical way that nothing else taps. Why? Why do they matter to climate and energy? Because they can touch us in a way nothing else can, inspire us and motivate us, and we need every tool in the toolbox to address climate change. How? Listen to Sandra Bargman and Chantal Bilodeau, who created, produced and performed the “Earth Intention: A Climate Cabaret” recently to inspire people through music and the arts to take the necessary action to save the planet, in this inspiring conversation with Electric Ladies podcast host Joan Michelson.   You'll hear: Why culture is vital to massive social, political and economic change. How music and the arts move people through “hope.” How to communicate climate messages in stories without being preachy or awkward About using the arts to reach people who may not naturally “get” the climate message, or who may be overwhelmed. Plus, insightful career advice …. “It's never too late to pivot. I think people who are mid-career, women particularly, we always feel like, ‘oh, my time was then,' (but) it is never too late to pivot…And the other thing that reflects my career is, don't feel as though you have to pick one lane. You can pick more than one lane and both of those lanes or more can be successful.” Sandra Bargman on Electric Ladies podcast You'll also want to listen to (some may have been recorded under our previous name, Green Connections Radio): Deborah Rutter, President, the John F. Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts – on managing creative people.

BFF connections have transformed rapidly during the COVID-19 pandemic. FaceTime calls, Zoom happy hours, voice memos, group chats and virtual game nights, in many cases, have reworked our in-person interactions of the past. What does the future of friendship look like? Ann Friedman and Aminatou Sow have been friends for over a decade, twelve years to be exact. Living on opposite coasts for years now, they had a head start on managing a long-distance friendship. Ann, a journalist, essayist and media entrepreneur and Aminatou, a writer, interviewer and cultural commentator, co-wrote “Big Friendship,” a book all about maintaining their close bond. They join for an inspiring conversation about the future of friendship and what it takes to stay connected for the long haul.

So what comes next? We've just gone through a once-in-a-century pandemic that disrupted nearly every aspect of our lives. We're in the beginning of an energy transition unlike anything the industrialized world has ever attempted. And it can be very difficult, amidst, war, plague, insurrection and climate disaster to conceive of what a flourishing future might even look like. What's in store for rapidly evolving areas like entertainment, finance and energy? What impact has the social media revolution and COVID crisis had on our personal relationships, and how might this time be instructive for our friendships in the future? Will the next few years look remotely like the present? Chris Hayes asks these big questions and more in the inaugural “Why Is This Happening?” “Future of” miniseries. Join for conversations with an eclectic lineup of guests including Seth Meyers, host of “Late Night with Seth Meyers,” Cathie Wood, CEO of ARK Invest, Jonah Goldman, managing director of Breakthrough Energy, and Ann Friedman and Aminatou Sow, authors of “Big Friendship.”

So maybe there's not this massive blow out or deep-hearted conversation about why your friendship is ending. Maybe it's this slow burn, the flame gradually shrinks to where it eventually burns out? Perhaps there's no concrete reason other than the fact that people are busy, priorities change, and you're just not one of theirs? The slow fizzle still burns, stings, and has you wondering what you did or if something is wrong with you. Did you do something and it just eventually ate at them? Are you that annoying where it finally got to them? Did they change in some way you're not aware of? Are they just not into you anymore? This episode is for you if you've had a friendship plateau and eventually fade. You are confused and wonder if it's you. You're done with questioning yourself and need to move forward. We will talk about the many reasons why friendships fade and how you can move on and focus on YOU and the amazing friends that ARE around you now with open arms. You will gain confidence in yourself, you'll gain control over your happiness, and you will stop questioning what you did and realize why some friendships just don't last.

Galentine's Day is this weekend, so we wanted to use this time to talk about friendship! Friendship is weird, and there aren't a lot of great definitions for different types of friends.

Also, we offer some practical tips for anyone looking and longing for a deep connection. But we also want to hear from you! How do you manage those Big Friendships? Call and let us know!

I'm talking with first-time authors and longtime podcasters — and even longer-time friends — Aminatou Sow and Ann Friedman. We're talking about their book, Big Friendship: How We Keep Each Other Close, and why the lack of meaningful, intimate, vulnerable friendships is almost a crisis right now. One key learning for me is how many of us believe that friendships should be easy and require little effort, when, in reality, we can't have any meaningful relationships without putting in meaningful work. And that's not always easy. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

Heidi and Ellen talk to Jen and Michelle. Jen is a mom of 3 and is about to switch careers from something very creative (and her dream job) to one in computer science that is more structured and linear.  She wonders about the best way to transition and how to maintain some of the creative energy in her very busy life.  Michelle has been a nurse for the past 10 years and has not liked her work from the very beginning.  She is looking for a change and is thinking of real estate. She is not sure if this is the right move for her, is fearing failure and asks if such a major career shift is right for her.  Ellen and Heidi also talk about the new season of ‘Ted Lasso', the HBO series ‘Catch and Kill: The Podcast Tapes' and the book 'Big Friendship: How We Keep Each Other Close' by Aminatou Sow and Ann Friedman.

If you could describe 2020 in only one word, what would it be? For Deborah Olatunji, she would have to choose the word "pivot." There are so many "what if's" that could have happened during this rollercoaster of a year from weddings, family gatherings, scheduled book tours, sports seasons and competitions to concerts, graduation ceremonies, and more. By using the word pivot, both unintentionally and intentionally, we all had to decide to turn those "what if's" into "what now's." In this episode, Deborah shares her TEDx talk titled, How Collective Empowerment Can Ignite The World, that she was supposed to give in March 2020. This episode sets up the intentions for this podcast to be a source of light, connection, and empowerment for you as you navigate through the rest of this challenging year. If you're looking for a sense of direction for Q4 of this year, then this episode is definitely for you!Connect with Deborah Olatunji on Instagram ~ @deb_olatunjiThe Voices of Disruption Website: www.deboraholatunji.com/podcast
