What does it really mean to take your power back—and how do you sustain it once you do?In this fifth appearance, Alec Zeck returns for a wide-ranging conversation that goes far beyond health.

Alec shares reflections on leadership, internal coherence, and how to build real-world community in an era of isolation and digital noise.We also dive into the importance of purpose, the difference between being awake and being weaponized, and why the future belongs to those willing to do the inner work.

Let's be honest — a lot of what we're told about social media growth feels exhausting, surface-level, or straight-up disconnected. That's why this episode with Kristina Bartold, CEO of The Social Snippet, is such a breath of fresh air.Kristina shares how she's built a thriving business (and community) by focusing on connection over conversion — and how you can do the same without faking it or being glued to your phone.

In today's episode of Let's Talk Facilitation, I share with you my top five strategies for building real community in class. In last week's episode, I talked about the importance of students experiencing belonging as a central factor in their willingness (or lack thereof) to engage in your class, and I talked in detail about how to position the cultivation of belonging as a cornerstone of your pedagogy. How do we inspire feelings of belonging? Through community building. Today I am following up with the concrete, tangible, practical steps you can take to build community in your class. If you have been struggling to get your students to do the work, to show up to class, and to participate in your discussions and activities, you are going to want to listen to last week's and this week's episodes! My top five community-building strategies share a number of qualities in common. They all… Center opportunities for meaningful relationship building Are humanizing Allow you and your students to see one another as real people Provide space for building genuine connections Provide support for vulnerability, which is key to developing trust Here's what these strategies don't do: They don't… Involve silly games Force impersonal activities Keep everything surface level Require a performance Privilege small talk Make shy students miserable Instead, the practices I'm talking about are purposeful and strategic. They are designed to support the kind of relationships that enable students to show up to class and be valued as their authentic selves. Enjoy! FREE BONUSES In today's episode, I talk about establishing and using group norms as part of the process of building community in your class. If you'd like some ideas of how such group norms might be described, you can download a copy of my FREE PDFs “Sample Class Discussion Guidelines Statement” and “Sample Anti-Racist Discussion Guidelines Statement”.

What is the difference between inclusion and real belonging in a community? Can you have one without the other? Yes, indeed, you can. Unfortunately, there are too many groups where you can be included without feeling like you truly belong. What is the missing ingredient? Trust. Trust, which starts at the individual level, is central to a community and fosters an environment that feels safe for all members. This episode is a personal one.    Book and Reading Resources from June 3rd Podcast For those of you whose hearts are hurting right now and who want to do more to better understand and fight racism, it looks like there are some really good resources below. https://medium.com/wake-up-call/a-detailed-list-of-anti-racism-resources-a34b259a3eea Black Lives Matter Reading List: https://www.booktable.net/black-lives-matter-reading-list For kids: https://www.instagram.com/theconsciouskid/. Their Patreon page is full of good resources. Some other books that have been recommended to me: My Grandmother's Hands - This is an excellent work for understanding through an intergenerational racial trauma and healing lens, and explicitly offers exercises for police, which is interesting in the current context. Mindful of Race - While politically left-leaning, I really like the tie in to a mindfulness framework and Buddhist psychology. Why We Are Polarized - I like this a lot because of its examination of race x politics x identity White Fragility - Though challenging, I think this is an important text for anyone seeking to understand the current landscape of anti-racism work. I also think it is important to read prior to reading texts by people of color as she names a lot of the issues that people of color experience and feel when interacting with white people and, in particular, talking to them about race. From this book, one could then take on Me and White Supremacy, if they were inspired to examine themselves more deeply.
