Christina's personal story is as powerful as her professional journey. She grew up as an outsider in Utah—one of the few Black, female, liberal individuals in a predominantly white, conservative, and Mormon environment. Experiencing firsthand how narratives about race, religion, and identity shape behavior and interactions, she realized how powerful stories can be in defining our sense of self and how we relate to others. This realization fueled her career. As the founder of The New Quo, Christina helps leaders recognize the stories that influence their beliefs about power and leadership, so they can rewrite them in ways that foster deeper trust, belonging, and innovation. She's trained over 14,000 leaders across nine industries, teaching them how to break through conventional leadership models and create equity-driven, status-quo-breaking organizations. Christina brings a mix of personal and professional insights: Her experience growing up as a racial and religious minority in Utah, and how it shaped her understanding of the stories we tell ourselves about power and self-worth How narrative intelligence helps leaders identify and disrupt biases, improve communication, and create more inclusive and innovative environments The transformative power of storytelling for behavioral change and social impact If you're looking for ways to move beyond better to achieve something truly transformational, join us for today's podcast.

Hey Change Maker, Does this sound familiar? The meeting starts like it always does—polite exchanges, someone cracking a joke to loosen the tension. The agenda is clear, and the goals are ambitious. You should leave this room feeling energized, aligned, ready to move forward. But halfway through, it's obvious: something's missing. Ideas get lost in translation. Questions stay unasked. People agree, but you can't help but notice the hesitation. You know the work your team is capable of—you've seen it—but these moments of disconnection feel like a weight, holding everything back. And then, the patterns emerge. It's the unspoken dynamics. The hesitation to trust. The stories people tell themselves about their place in the room—about you, about the work, about each other. It's nothing anyone says outright, but it shapes everything. “Your brain is always trying to categorize: is this person, this moment, a reward or a threat? Those split-second assumptions? They shape trust, communication, and collaboration before you even realize it.” This week on Impact Innovators, Christina Blacken reveals how these unseen dynamics affect everything you're building. She'll guide you through how to surface and rewrite the stories holding your team back—creating trust, connection, and a foundation for the year ahead. You'll learn: How unconscious biases show up in team dynamics and how to shift them. The power of story rituals and how they shape organizational culture. Christina's three-step framework—awareness, attunement, and action—for rewriting the narratives holding your team back.

The Millennial Myth was created in the late 1990's to help provide context about the coming juggernaut of a generation. As with most stories about huge groups, the narrative held on to broad generalizations and chose odd anecdotes to incorporate, while eschewing other detailed experiences and perspective. Early on, people on the fringes took notice, and have been hanging on ever since. We spoke to author expert on narratives and Founder of The New Quo, (https://www.thenewquo.com/) and host of the Sway Them in Color podcast (https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/sway-them-in-color/id1487837712) to help add context about how people are left out as a narrative and others this size are being shaped.How generational segmentations are useful to marketers and business. 10:23The problem with social media. 15:04Falling in love with storytelling. 18:19How did you receive the stories of millennials in America? 25:59Where did the fear of college debt come from? 31:54The conflicting narratives of Millennials and Millennials. 39:36Marketing starts as soon as a kid can walk. 45:25The hidden polemics of boomers. 49:51Most media organizations are owned by one person. 55:15The myth of colorblindness in Millennials. 1:00:41The problem with colorblindness. 1:04:39How do I become more culturally competent? 1:08:58In The Demo, a podcast about how stories of groups are created, subverted and destroyed.

Despite no longer working together the three have tons in common including being Black employees within corporate America.

What stories are we telling ourselves about the world? The New Quo founder Christina Blacken works with leaders to challenge the status quo through "narrative intelligence" - understanding the power of stories to change minds, break patterns, and make better, wiser decisions. In this episode, host Shoshanna Hecht speaks with Christina about the stories we tell ourselves in good times and in crises (and whose stories get told, and from whose perspective). Christina also shares how she applied the lessons of narrative intelligence to her own story, professionally and personally, when the COVID-19 lockdowns took hold in March 2020. Professionally, Christina's flourishing in-person speaking and consulting business changed on a dime. Personally, she learned to navigate her own rising fear and trauma brought on by pandemic life by reframing her own stories in order to overcome those fears and move herself forward.

Why is hierarchy how we recognize talent? Why is there a rigid idea of who is a "have" and who is a "have not"? Why do people need to look and talk a certain way to be a leader? How do the media and the narratives around us shape our biases and how we think and act? These are just some of the questions that Christina Blacken, founder of The New Quo and host of the Swap Them in Color podcast, challenged herself to answer. Christina started in the non-profit world and then moved on to media. Once, her boss told her she should smile more. "How does that help me do my job better?" she asked. She then took an inventory of her values. Leveraging the help of a business coach, she took pen to paper to understand what problem she was passionate about solving and what solutions she could provide. When her FU fund reached her goal amount, she took the leap to make her side hustle her full-time job. Today The New Quo is a leadership development and inclusion consultancy helping leaders create inclusive cultural and organizational change through narrative intelligence. So far, Christina has trained over 10,000 leaders across nine industries to self-reflect, examine their own biases, and transform their narratives, creating a ripple effect across the organization. In this episode, Christina shares the mental framework she applied to every aspect of her journey and the narrative techniques she uses to disrupt bias today and build deeper connections and understanding between people who are different from each other. She shares how she counteracts the values gap and how you can work to take ideas evangelized on paper and turn them into action.

Extreme metal outfit Psycroptic have been decimating global audiences for more than two decades.In that time they have put extreme metal in Australia on the map, in doing so paving the way for many more bands of that genre and providing them with the confidence that can only be bred by success.With an imminent headlining performance at Blacken Open Air 2022 looming, as well as a new album Divine Council set for release on August 5, vocalist Jason Peppiatt sat down with HEAVY to bring us up to date.We start by asking when it will actually feel real that the show will go ahead after the disappointments of the last 24 months."We've done three or four shows so far this year,” he smiled. “We've done a couple of trips to Melbourne and Adelaide so it's starting to feel a little bit more real. We have had a few cancellations recently due to members getting COVID and the assorted fun stuff, but it's all starting to feel like t's coming back on again, finally. It's been too long."Blacken Open Air is the largest metal festival of its kind in this country, and as such flies the flag for the future of metal in this country."When we played Blacken years back it was in its early stages,” Peppiatt recalled, “but then, from what I understand, a few years after that there was some fairly big line-ups with bands from all over the country which ended up drawing a fan base and a crowd from all over the country. I think something like this is what Australia needs, kind of a replacement for what Metal For The Brain used to be back in the late 1990s, early 2000s. Metal For The brain was always one of those things in Canberra that put together all the big Australian metal acts. You'd get bands travelling from all over the country, almost like a pilgrimage people would do to go. With any luck I think Blacken is probably going to take the place of what that was because Australia hasn't really had anything like that for quite some years now."In the full interview, Jason talks more about Blacken Open Air, what to expect from Psycroptic, who he is most looking forward to seeing, their new single Rend Asunder, upcoming album Divine Council, plans for 2022 and beyond and more.

New Zealand based Polynesian metal outfit Shepherd's Reign were recently on our shores as main support on the highly successful Devilskin tour for their latest album Red.The band wowed audiences all over the country with their blending of traditional Polynesian and Samoan music and instruments with lashings of heavy metal to create a sound unidentifiably their own.They return to Australia in just under two months as one of the headliners of Blacken Open Air 2022, with drummer Shaymen Rameka joining HEAVY to talk bout that show and more from the Shepherd's Reign camp.We start by asking how much Shepherd's Reign actually know about Blacken Open Air."We know there's a lot of pretty hardcore, extreme metal coming out of that festival,” he laughed. “I'm just totally looking forward to hearing it all on the big sound system."With three days worth of live music to listen to, Rameka admits he has spent a fair bit of time checking out some of the other bands to prepare for an inevitable cavalcade of metal."Over the last year I have been checking out some of the bands,” he admitted. “I'm not too much into the extreme side of the metal, but I can always appreciate it. I know it takes the guys a lot of hard work to work their magic and just the musicality and musicianship is right up there."In the full interview Shaymen talks more about what Shepherd's Reign will bring to Blacken Open Air, the recent tour with Devilskin, the band's music and how they get the blending of sound and culture right, upcoming music and more.

Conversations about diversity, equity and inclusion seem to be a more frequent and familiar part of both our business and general culture. But how are actual changes and improvements in individual and group behavior going to be made? My special guest, Christina Blacken has made a career for herself of looking at this very important question and chose a tool to do her work that is called Narrative Intelligence. In the episode, Christina teaches us all about Narrative Intelligence, her own childhood and childhood surroundings which sharpened her knowledge for story, and how stories influence people's thoughts and behavior. You will gain insight on how Christina expertly trains other people to be more aware of the stories that have influenced them, the cultures and policies they operate in, and to be more conscious about how they use their own personal influence.Christina Blacken is a public speaker, performer, and founder of The New Quo.

And if you don't have straight hair, you're not professional, you're not as attractive. • [16:03] Christina explains narrative intelligence as “the ability to recognize the patterns, and the narrative tropes that are internalized within you when it comes to societal or cultural stories, and how those then affect your behavior, your thinking, your biases, and shifting them appropriately if they're in the way of your full potential because there are stories we can ingest…”For more information on the Make Time for Success podcast, visit: https://www.maketimeforsuccesspodcast.comConnect with Us!Dr. Christine Li -Website: https://www.procrastinationcoach.comFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/groups/procrastinationcoachInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/procrastinationcoach/To work with Dr. Li on a weekly basis in her coaching and accountability program, please register for The Success Lab here: https://www.procrastinationcoach.com/labChristina Blacken -Website: https://www.thenewquo.com/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/christinablacken/LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/christinablackenthe white paper! https://bitly.com/newquopaper

For many of us, the world can feel like too much right now – a never ending cascade of anxiety-inducing news. It's something that Christina Blacken, founder and chief narrative strategist at The New Quo, calls the “mental fire.” As we struggle to handle the pressure that we feel in society right now, our own anxieties can fuel narratives and actions that are harmful to others – especially others different than ourselves. Blacken speaks with host Morra Aarons-Mele about how we can move away from rigid perfectionism, toxic competition, and conformity and toward a culture of curiosity and acceptance.

Obviously, there are certain types of stories in America that are easier to accept than others. At some point, we make certain judgments about which stories we want to buy into and which ones we don’t, and most of us get pretty good at doing this automatically. We decide which stories we think deserve to be taken seriously, and which can be dismissed. It’s just how we get through life. The problem is, the way we decide which stories to listen to says a lot about us. And sometimes we reject stories because they tell us something we don’t want to hear. That’s where Christina Blacken comes in, the Founder of The New Quo, and all-around amazing human being. Prepare yourself for an incredible episode as we get to learn from her on this episode of the Story Podcast.   

This week the fellas talk the new info on Popsmoke's murders, Saweetie's rando performance at Santa Monica Peir and Jake Paul snatching Floyd's hat.

Christina Blacken is Founder + Chief Story Strategist at The New Quo. The New Quo is a professional development + communication consultancy helping leaders communicate their ideas with deeper connection and influence to better sell their bold visions and build thriving diverse teams and culture. Read more about Christina's background and journey here.

How do we show up bravely and compassionately for conversations about race? In this episode, leadership and storytelling coach Christina Blacken returns to the podcast to dive into this extremely important topic. A few recommendations for white allies: Listen. Remember you don’t have to take up space. Ask open-ended questions that don’t make assumptions, and do your research before you show up. It makes sense that we’ve been nervous to have multi-racial conversations about racism, and anxious to call Grandma out for her unacceptable comments. But it’s time to sharpen our vocabulary and to have these conversations. This is true freedom of speech, and the future of our human race depends on it.

We also talk about stereotypes and conditioning. We call out our own unconscious biases in others and ourselves, and more on today's show.

Tips for communicating and owning your voice Why storytelling can create change What questions to ask yourself to remove internal biases How to unpack your unconscious biases What your options are when a change occurs "In a lot of these conversations I try to look at the grey, which is asking people open-ended questions that force them to really consider and unpack their own beliefs." - Christina Blacken 3 Pieces of Advice or Action Steps: Know where your boundaries lie - what part of your identity are you not willing to compromise? Ask questions and challenge people to think about things differently Have a psychologically safe place you can go "Most people at some point in time have experienced some level of adversity, some level of conflict, some level of misunderstanding.

In their 10th episode, to celebrate and kick off 2020, Julie and Casey dig deep on two of the questions they ask every guest: What is your definition of power? And what is your definition of play? Along the way, you'll hear powerful and playful answers from brilliant previous guests, as well as thoughts on the state of the world and why "head down, power through" isn't the best way to learn new skills. They also announce their brand new "My Communication Manifesto" workbook.

Christina founded The New Quo because she believes story is one of our most powerful tools for change. The New Quo is a content platform and communications consultancy helping leaders and companies rebrand and rewrite their voice to convey their unique purpose, navigate change, gain buy-in, and create status-quo breaking communications that shift hearts, mindsets, and culture for the better. Christina has spent the past 10 years using story to drive action — from motivating 300,000 young people to volunteer on various social causes (from discrimination to women’s empowerment), closing $6.5 million in profits with teams she's worked with throughout various industries, and teaching 220 leaders in proprietary workshops on how to create culture change, all through story. She is also a performer and loves combining the high-energy entertainment style of her singing background with actionable tips that leave the people she works with and teach inspired, motivated, and ready to take action. You can peep her work in Elle.com, Cosmopolitan Magazine, Marie Claire, The Huffington Post, Mogul.com, Attn.com, and Thrive.com among other outlets. As an Utah native & NYC resident for the past 9 years, she knows far more uses for jello than she'd like to admit. Want to connect with other go-getters? Join The Grind!

In this day and age, almost everyone and everything that tries to make it big is nothing without branding. However, with so many platforms available, it can be a challenge to create one and put it out there. Host, Dr. Diane Hamilton, guests S. Renee Smith, advisor, coach, and strategic partner to senior leaders, to enlighten us about personal branding, strategic planning, and development. She shares with us key points on how to be likable, credible, and marketable—noting how branding starts with being authentic in who you are and the value you bring. The power of narratives is in how it influences people to get into a new kind of thinking. As a storyteller herself, Christina Blacken knows this to be true. Her storytelling platform, The New Quo, has been helping high growth leaders get out of the status quo thinking and into creativity and purpose. Christina discusses how leaders should go about cultural change and embody what they are preaching. She then shares doing various social causes and motivating young people to volunteer.

Julie and Casey sit down remotely with Christina Blacken (founder of The New Quo) to talk about the power of story - telling your own story, and how organizations can use storytelling to "convey their unique purpose, navigate change, gain buy-in, and create status-quo breaking communications that shift hearts, mindsets, and culture for the better."  TOP TAKEAWAYS FROM THIS EPISODE Sometimes growing up as an outsider can become a superpower - as in "I can't care what people thought" Living your life in order to be invisible MAY protect you from judgement (although it probably won't) - but what it will definitely do is keep you from realizing your full creativity and the impact you can have on the world. Storytelling is a powerful medium for communication - 65% of our daily communication is via storytelling. "[Storytelling] is where the art comes in. As science fiction author Cassandra Clare writes, 'Fiction is truth, even if it is not fact.' This is what storytelling is for - and in fact research has found that people understood science better when it's communicated through storytelling...story goes where science can't." - Emily and Amelia Nagoski, Burnout   CHRISTINA'S BIO 1. I love cheese but its proven to not love me back. I also love stories. Why? They are the most powerful tools on the planet for connection and change. 65% of all daily communication is story. 2. My story starts with my family being part of the Great Migration from the South and landing in Utah, my childhood through teenage years home (questions about Mormons, being black in a place where about 3 other black people live, and the merits of Jello, are expected). My childhood of being an outsider religiously, politically, and racially taught me how powerful story can be for influencing how we treat one another. 3. I’ve used story to manage teams creating social movements in the non-profit world that inspired 300,000 young people to volunteer on various causes, and to connect brands to the communities they care about, helping secure 6.5M in profits for the companies and teams I've worked with and for along the way. I now teach the science and power of storytelling as a tool for creating deeper connection between people and creating influence and buy-in for bold ideas. 4. My mission is to flip the status-quo on leadership through story. Leadership isn’t an elitist and built-in trait — it’s the ability to inspire and move other people through your vision and the lessons you’ve gained across your life experiences. The New Quo is creating a new communication paradigm for a new generation of leadership, unleashing your potential to deeply connect, influence, and inspire others through your stories of change. We will build stronger senses of self, create better products, service wider audiences, and solve seemingly insurmountable problems when we stand in our truths and share them authentically across diverse social lines.

It couldn’t be more perfect that the first guest on the How To Speak Your Truth podcast is my coach and dear friend, Christina Blacken. Christina is a professional badass and storyteller… through her storytelling platform and consultancy, The New Quo, she works with individuals and organizations to help them share their stories with more confidence and clarity. This episode is REAL - Christina shares stories about how she stood up to a terrible idea at her workplace (oof, it was bad!), how she maintained her integrity in the face of a degrading experience with her favorite high school teacher, and how she’s found power by sharing her “trampoline story”: a story that sounds fun, but is actually about experiencing discrimination growing up in Utah. Plus we talk about the difference between your story and society’s stories and how to differentiate them. Your story matters, and Christina Blacken is here to get you laughing and gasping while she tells you why, when, and how to share it. Listen now… and for more information on the podcast and how to join the Speak Your Truth Membership Community, visit www.howtospeakyourtruth.com.

For this episode I had a great conversation with Malcolm and Marcy Blacken. Malcolm Blacken is the Director of Player Development for the Washington Redskins. He previously served as a strength and conditioning coach for the Redskins, the Detroit Lions and the University of Colorado Buffaloes He was also a running back and a four-time letter winner for Virginia Tech. Marcy Blacken has over twenty years' experience as group fitness instructor, trainer and manager in the fitness industry. Also, Marcy was my boss when I was a group fitness instructor back in the day. Yes, I taught a cycle class for 17 years. No, I don't want to talk about it. Malcolm mentions that a head coach in the NFL is responsible for who a player is on the field. But the directory of player development is responsible for who the player is off the field. Here's are some questions I want you think about this week: What would it look like for you to view yourself as the director of player development in your home? What goals do you have for your child's development as a person? What steps are you taking to pursue them?

For Christina Blacken, an early pre-diabetes diagnosis was the wake-up call she needed to take control of her health and her life. Not taking “no” for an answer, she did whatever it took to get the answers she needed for her health, eventually venturing outside of conventional medicine to learn about the impact of food and nutrition. From the social struggles of restrictive eating (and how to handle them) to Christina's thoughts about how to make nutrition changes realistic and sustainable, this episode is all about what it means to take your health into your own hands. To learn more about Christina, check out the show notes. Follow Made Visible on Instagram and Facebook

We apologize for being out of touch last month, but we promise that this episode of WDEK will prove to have been worth your wait. Episode 7 is a super special edition of WDEK. We taped the show outside in front of a live audience on the eve of Hurricane Sandy, a few days before Halloween on the Brooklyn deck of our good friend Stephen Vesecky. Stephen shared a Johann Wolfgang von Goethe scary story while ominous sounds of the city howl behind him, literally.  Our special guests were the sexy Magnum PI and the one and only Bagelgher.   Listening to their tales of fright and horror will make you shake and shiver.  Christian finished up his run of shows for the play, Blacken the Bubble.  Shonali's gym teacher needs advice about flights to Siberia.  Have you heard Hot Cheetos and Takis?  Shonali would like to touch Magnum's stache.  Christian doesn't like being called a little girl.  The Bagelgher doesn't like rap videos.   Must see visuals are attached: Bagelgher's Bagelmatic and Bagel Gun.  We were quite out of control and feel lucky to have enjoyed such a wonderful afternoon on what would be the eve of a devastating hurricane that ripped apart our city.  For those of you that are still affected by Hurricane Sandy, our thoughts are with you and we hope that those of you that can help, contribute time and/or money to the relief efforts going on throughout our city.  Special thanks goes to Tory Harris, Matt Carlin, Justin Joseph Hall, Ricardo Rosario and our live audience.  Ya'll are the best!
