To call conductor Jessica Bejarano an outlier in the American orchestral world is a mild understatement. Not only is she female at a time when there are still astonishingly few female conductors of professional orchestras — according to Women's Philharmonic Advocacy, in the 2024-25 season, only 20.8% of concerts by the top 21 orchestras in the U.S. were conducted by women, and today only one of the 25 largest American orchestras has a female music director — but she is also Latina and lesbian. When Jessica Bejarano steps onto the podium, therefore, she doesn't just conduct; sporting visible tattoos — her favorite conductor Tchaikovsky is prominently featured on her right forearm — and projecting a down-to-earth warmth and grit she learned from her immigrant mother in working class East L.A., she redefines what leadership can look like in the orchestral world.By 2019, Jessica was already building a solid resume, leading community orchestras in the Bay Area as well as accepting freelance directing gigs around the world. Continually faced with the glacial pace of change in the classical music world, however, she took a leap of faith and founded her own ensemble, the San Francisco Philharmonic. The SF Phil's mission is to center diversity, equity and inclusion not just as a tagline but as a lived experience for musicians and audiences alike. In the last six years, under her leadership, the SF Phil has collaborated with everyone from Grammy-winning composers to local rap icons, while also offering masterclasses for emerging conductors and commissioning new works by underrepresented composers. In this interview, Jessica shares the winding, impassioned path that led her from East L.A. trumpet player to visionary conductor and founder. She discusses how she built the SF Phil from scratch — including funding its first concert out of her own savings — and how she continues to push the boundaries of what a 21st century orchestra can be.https://www.sfphil.org/about

Confidently Navigate Small Business Buying and Selling with Baton's Chat JoglekarIn a recent episode of The Thoughtful Entrepreneur, host Josh Elledge spoke with Chat Joglekar, Co-Founder and CEO of Baton, a modern marketplace built to simplify the buying and selling of small businesses. Chat shared powerful insights into why acquiring an existing small business can be more strategic—and less risky—than starting one from scratch. He also outlined the tools Baton provides to make small business transactions more accessible, transparent, and successful.The Baton Approach to Small Business OwnershipBaton was born from a vision to demystify the complex process of small business transactions. Chat Joglekar and his team recognized that many entrepreneurs overlook the option of buying a business with built-in cash flow and customers, opting instead to launch from zero. Baton aims to shift that mindset.Chat explained that Baton functions as both a listing marketplace and an educational platform. Sellers can receive a complimentary valuation, and buyers can browse listings for free. Unlike traditional business brokers who charge up to 12%, Baton keeps its success fee at just 6%, lowering the barrier to entry for buyers.One of the most underutilized tools in small business acquisition, Chat emphasized, is the Small Business Administration (SBA) loan. For businesses valued under $5 million, SBA loans offer low-interest rates and long repayment terms. Baton helps guide buyers through the financing process and offers content and guidance to make these loans easier to understand and obtain.Whether you're selling your first business or stepping into entrepreneurship by acquisition, Baton supports your journey with webinars, guides, and one-on-one support. Chat's mission is clear: empower business owners with data, education, and an easy-to-navigate process.About Chat JoglekarChat Joglekar is the Co-Founder and CEO of Baton. With a background in product leadership at Google and venture-backed startups, Chat is passionate about simplifying entrepreneurship through small business acquisition. His career spans growth strategy, business development, and marketplace design.About BatonBaton is a digital marketplace designed to make buying and selling small businesses more efficient and affordable.

David Pt. 3 Stand and Fight - Ben Workman
Readings for the Feast of the Ascension of the Lord - Acts 1:1-11; Luke 24:46-53We know the story. We've heard it dozens of times. And we know that it ends up ok in the end. But what about when we apply it to our lives? What about those moments of anxiety when we are given the keys? Or the job training is done and we are now expected to know how to do a task? Or a child is born and is lying in our arms and we haven't the slightest idea what to do next? There you go. Now you understand this feast on a deeper level. You take the next step in trepidation, anxiety, trust and hope. That sounds about right. We don't just watch this one from the sidelines. We are witnesses of these things.And then there was one...one last podcast to go next week on the Feast of Pentecost. I can't thank you all enough for listening these many years or these 1-2 times that you have. Either way, I'm humbled. I hope to do my thanks next week - but in the meantime, thank you all for sharing this, trusting me and living it in whatever way God invited and invites you. That's the best. Final question or comment? I can be reached at pdjoezenk@gmail.com

In the first episode of season 5, we celebrate transitions, transformations, and the quiet power of standing among ancient trees. Former host Emily Harwitz returns to pass the mic to new host Monica Carcamo-Binetti, a longtime advocate for nature connection and co-Founder of Bay Area GalVentures. Together they explore how the redwoods shape us, and how being outdoors can clear our minds, rest our intentions, and remind us of what truly matters. Emily and Monica find beauty, resilience, and a shared commitment to protecting the places that change us. This season, Monica will explore how redwoods act as the ultimate “nature influencer” — and how these ancient giants guide us towards a deeper connection with ourselves, each other, and the natural world. ------------Monica Carcamo-BinettiMonica is a storyteller, hiker, and Save the Redwoods League council member. She is also the co-founder of Bay Area GalVentures, an Instagram community she started with her lifelong friend to share their hiking adventures, especially among the redwoods. Monica discovered her love for the outdoors later in life and now champions access to nature for women. She extends this passion into her role as our new podcast host, where she shares stories that connect people to redwoods, nature, and each other—with heart, curiosity, and a deep love for the forest.Emily HarwitzEmily Harwitz is an award-winning science writer and nature photographer working at the intersection of science, environment, and culture. Through written, visual, and audio forms, she tells stories that deepen our capacity for wonder and bring us closer to the natural world—including each other. She was the IGIYG host for seasons 2-4 and is now excited to listen along as she starts a new role as Communications Manager at Sonoma Land Trust. You can find more of her work at emilyharwitz.com and connect with her on Instagram @em_witz.

Baton, with its easy integration of financial systems and real-time valuation tools, is at the forefront of this transformation. Tune in to hear how Chat is democratizing entrepreneurship and why Baton is becoming an essential tool for the next generation of business owners.
