Show Notes: Bonni Theriault initially went to business school and worked as a business analyst at McKinsey for a few years, where she worked with consumer products for companies and marketing. After working at Pepperidge Farm for a couple of years, she decided to build her own company and joined forces with a woman who was the head of advertising at Campbell Soup, and together they launched a brand strategy company where they worked for companies like Cadbury Schweppes, Johnson and Johnson, and Stryker. From Marketing to Coaching to Global Emergency Care After 13 years at the company, Bonni found herself tired of constantly pitching to employers and sought coaching roles. She had previously worked closely with the McKinsey assessment team, coaching candidates and helping them improve their interview skills. And so, with the experience under her belt, she returned to McKinsey as a professional development manager. When her oldest son turned 14, she took two years off to spend more time with her children and also volunteered with Global Emergency Care, an organization that trains emergency medicine nurses in Uganda. She worked with Global Emergency Care's marketing and fundraising for two years on a volunteer basis. The Role of Chief Partnerships Officer at Generation When Bonni decided to return to work, she wanted to stay in the social sector but was offered a position at McKinsey. She worked there until an opportunity at Generation was presented. Generation is an independent non-profit that works with unemployed individuals. Bonni has now worked there for seven years. Bonni explains that her responsibility as chief partnerships officer includes global fundraising and employer partnerships for Generation, a company operating in 17 countries worldwide. They train across 40 different professions, based on labor dynamics in each country. They conduct extensive research before starting a training program to identify job vacancies and bring learners from historically underrepresented groups, and they focus on employment in five different industries: tech, green jobs, customer service and sales, skilled trades, and healthcare. They also teach behavioral skills and the importance of having a growth mindset.  The Impact of AI in Job Forecasting and Training AI has been a topic of interest for Generation, as it impacts the skills needed to train learners in specific roles. Bonni explains that they have analyzed various roles, including entry-level roles, which may go away entirely or be significantly impacted by AI, and roles that might have a different set of skills. Jobs such as solar panel installation or healthcare, are likely to be more resilient over time in the face of AI. They are also considering more jobs in the data center technician category, where tech roles are more hands-on and dealing with equipment than providing coding or IT support. How Generation Is Using AI The organization is using AI to deliver training to learners and alumni, ensuring they have the necessary skills for their jobs. They have created AI modules for learners and alumni to help them upskill and remain relevant in their work. AI is also used to help develop the curriculum, with chat bots helping learners answer first-line questions and focusing on more complex material. This helps streamline the curriculum creation process, as it often involves research and talking to subject matter experts. Operational efficiencies are also being used to improve efficiency and effectiveness. Working as a Professional Development Manager  The conversation turns back to Bonni's as a professional development manager at McKinsey. She mentions that a lot of time was spent negotiating with partners and consultants to find the right balance between professional growth and client needs. She built relationships of trust between consultants and partners to influence decisions in a way that was best for everyone involved. She also focused on performance evaluation, helping people understand their strengths and areas for improvement, and helping them find ways to build skills through studies, formalized training, coaching, or mentorship.  Marketing Goldfish and Chocolate Bonni shares her experience working on marketing Goldfish, a product that was initially marketed as a snack for adults drinking beer in bars but later was marketed to moms as an appealing snack for children. She also discusses her experience working with Cadbury, a chocolate brand that had over 150 chocolate brands worldwide. She worked on a brand architecture project to help consolidate these brands and increase their advertising dollars. She was sent boxes of chocolate bars from around the world to analyze packaging and brand identity and helped create seven mega brands for Cadbury, which led to a significant increase in their chocolate market share. Influential Harvard Courses and Professors Bonni mentions a course taught by Professor Dominguez where he focused on critical thinking. He presented different perspectives on events, presenting different sides as the truth. This skill has been passed down through her life and has become essential in today's world. Bonni wishes more classes would take this approach, as it helps students analyze and think critically about various situations and perspectives. Bonni's experiences with Professor Dominguez's course and her critical thinking skills have shaped her life and career.

Have you ever been confused about why Easter happens when it happens? End of March? Mid April? July? And as if it's not already complicated enough, the eastern church celebrates on a different day than the western church. Except the days that they don't... Thank goodness for our phone calendars, because without them, none of us would have any idea when to break out the Peeps and Cadbury eggs! Well, in our first segment this week, we're going to discuss the dating of Easter. Why it happens when it happens, how to calculate it, and whether pastels will be back in fashion next Spring. Then, we're looking at Exodus and a very peculiar series of moments. God sends Moses in to confront pharaoh, but then God... hardens pharaoh's heart against him? That can't be right, can it? Well, we'll parse it out for you and let you know! ---- HEY! TICKETS TO THE SECOND LEG OF THE DATA OVER DOGMA TOUR ARE ON SALE!

We hope you are having an amazing week friends! Honestly, ours was stressful. When your child is hurt or sick, it's the WORST...and Tess broke her ankle again.Devastating in many ways, yes, we're aware worse things can happen, but she'd had. abad run in the past 4 months. Two broken ankles and appendix surgery so she has missed a lot, and for an active child, it makes it really tough at 13 years old.So while it's been difficult, there is a lesson here in how she has been dealing with it.  Was she upset? Of course. She had her moments. But overall her attitude is incredible and she wakes up positive and ready to tackle the day.We also talk about keeping the perspective that maybe this happened for other "good" reasons? We really don't know.  And in many ways BELIEVING this will lead to something good and better will allow that to actually happen.This really leads off an interesting discussion into doing hard things and NOT taking the easy path all the time. We resist exercise because we often want to be comfortable for periods of time when the days can be so hard and full of stress. The irony is that uncomfortable thing, the exercise, it what allows you to handle the stress and anxiety.  We tackle a lot in this 40 minute episode.As always, thanks for listening!Kim & JamieAs discussed, get registered for Kim's Full Bloom May Event in her Client Community:  https://fitzlifeconsulting.com/infullbloomBecome a Growth Day Ambassador with Kim: https://bit.ly/GrowthDayWithKimSIGN UP FOR WORKSHOPS, RETREATS, AND APPLY TO WORK WITH KIM & JAMIE: bit.ly/WorkWithKimFitzpatrickThe Legacy Council Info: https://bit.ly/LearnMoreTheLegacyCouncilInterested in Wellness Products we love and use: https://bit.ly/FitzWellnessInsiderSHOP OUR CLEAN AND NON-TOXIC WELLNESS SITE:

Send us a textEaster traditions spark passionate opinions, nostalgic memories, and plenty of laughter in this seasonal gathering of friends. From the unanimous dislike of Peeps marshmallow treats to heated debates about the best Easter candies (Reese's eggs and Cadbury caramel eggs emerge victorious), our panel dives deep into what makes this spring holiday special across generations.Food takes center stage as guests share their traditional Easter meals – ham remains a staple for most, while Italian pastas, Polish kielbasa, pierogies, and even brisket make appearances on family tables. The conversation reveals a strong consensus that holidays should be celebrated at home rather than restaurants, emphasizing how these gatherings strengthen family bonds and create lasting memories.The peculiar tradition of Easter Bunny photos generates universal amusement and slight horror. As one guest describes mall Easter Bunnies: "They just look stressed out and deranged." Another shares his teenage experience being forced to don the costume for younger family members, likely scarring them for life as a six-foot-five bunny approached them.Perhaps most heartwarming are the shared memories of childhood Easters – following colorful jelly bean trails to hidden baskets, unexpected Nintendo systems as gifts, and now creating new traditions with their own children. These stories reveal how holiday traditions evolve while maintaining their essential purpose of bringing loved ones together.Whether you're planning an elaborate Easter dinner, filling baskets for little ones, or simply gathering with family and friends, this episode captures the spirit of the season and might just inspire you to start some new traditions of your own.

IT'S TIME TO WATCH THE MUPPETS! This week we watched The Tale of the Bunny Picnic. Distracted rants include but are not limited to JP's Easter candy TikTok, Peeps, Cadbury, The Elmo Slide, Mr. Noodle, Babe, and much more!"Bean Bunny is too small to be useful (says his brother) to help prepare for the Bunny Picnic, so he wanders off and sees a legendary persecutor of all rabbits: the farmer's dog. But nobody believes him when he tries to tell them he's seen the dog, until the dog breaks up the picnic. And it's up to Bean to come up with a plan to defeat the farmer's dog and discover the one thing the dog fears."Join us next time as we discuss: Dinosaurs episode "A New Leaf"Follow us:Twitter.com/ittwtmInstagram.com/ittwtm

This week: should the assisted dying bill be killed off? Six months after Kim Leadbeater MP launched the Terminally Ill Adults (End of Life) Bill, a group of Labour MPs have pronounced it ‘irredeemably flawed and not fit to become law'. They say the most basic aspects of the bill – having gone through its committee stage – do not hold up to scrutiny. Dan Hitchens agrees, writing in the magazine this week that ‘it's hard to summarise the committee's proceedings except with a kind of Homeric catalogue of rejected amendments' accompanied by a ‘series of disconcerting public statements'. With a third reading vote approaching, what could it tell us about the country we live in? Dan joins the podcast alongside the Revd Fergus Butler-Gallie, who provides the Spectator's diary for the week. (1:34) Next: where are all the rabbits? If you've noticed fewer rabbits across the countryside that might be due to a killer pandemic that has appeared on Britain's shores. Henry Williams raises awareness in the magazine this week about Rabbit Haemorrhagic Disease (RHD), which has a mortality rate of between 70 and 100% and has already left rabbits endangered in countries like Spain. The disease can kill suddenly and is particularly prolific within wild rabbits, which are less likely to be vaccinated than household pets. How concerned should we be? Henry joined the podcast to discuss. (20:56) And finally: are creme eggs delicious – or disgusting? ‘How do you eat yours?' asks the famous Cadbury's advert for creme eggs. James Innes-Smith, writing his notes on creme eggs in the magazine this week, responds ‘stamping on them in disgust'. James might not be a fan but most of the British public are – over 220 million of them are sold in the UK each year. Even more astonishing given they're only available to buy for a third of the year. Why are they loved so much? James joined the podcast alongside The Guardian's Lucy Mangan, who makes the case for creme eggs. (27:09) Presented by William Moore and Lara Prendergast. Produced by Patrick Gibbons.

To all of our Tori Amos fans out there, we're doubly sorry because this is our best podcast about Tori Amos and the 233rd greatest album of all time, Little Earthquakes.    Before we get to the music, we're popping a wheelie on the zeitgeist and covering Beverly Hills 90210, Meghan Markle's homage to Big Bopper, and the price of Cadbury eggs. Then we're heading to Legoland for a celebrity sighting and to Dodger Stadium for some Dodger Dogs, which will cause all you bunheads to jettison this episode altogether.    At (63:00), we take a brief musical detour to talk about Tori Amos's 1992 album, Little Earthquakes. We discuss Tori's musical insubordination, piano skills, and MTV unplugged performance.    Next week, we're heading into the void and becoming the best Black Sabbath podcast when we discuss the 1971 heavy metal album Master of Reality.

What started as a chocolate martini and a trip to the auto shop turns into a full-on nostalgia spiral. Reese unearths her original Garbage Pail Kids collection—gum long gone, value still intact—and Dave dives into the bizarre history of the cards that shocked 1980s parents everywhere. Plus: thrift store treasures, Cadbury egg hunting, and a very special TED Talk shoutout.

It's Easter time and we are all rushing to the stores to buy over packaged Easter eggs. While we love the taste of chocolate it's a sad fact that every sale further supports forced labour and environmental destruction.I have spoken about this before and received a cease and desist letter from a chocolate company, even though everything I said was factually correct. This podcast focuses on sustainability and for this episode we are looking at an aspect of sustainability we don't always discuss. People. We'll be discussing why a lot of chocolate companies suck and who you should buy from instead.In this episode I share:The surprising place that 70% of the worlds cocoa beans come fromHow much profit the growers and farmers of cocoa take home compared to the companies that on sell itThe average yearly income of fair trade farmers and how it has increasedHow 80% of deforestation has occurred because of cocoa in some regionsHow fair trade is involved in fixing the social issues from chocolate purchasesThe flaws in the fair trade processWhat Direct trade is and it can also helpThe pros and cons of direct tradeThe social and environmental implications of palm oilHow a customer response to Cadbury has caused the company to make changes in the pastWhy switching from using palm oil is not the option to fix thingsWhat you can do as a consumer this easterTricks to look out for when it comes to certificationWhy you should skip easter eggs entirelyThe unbelievable amount easter eggs have increased by in priceMy recommendations for ethical chocolate for easter this yearWho I don't recommend you buy from this easterKey Quotes“Chocolate, it's creamy it's sweet it melts in your mouth. But for every delicious bite you take, chocolate drives a bitter twisted tale of forced labour and environmental destruction.”“It's impossible to buy and do the right things all of the time.”“Sustainability is about progress not perfection. And it's not about feeling guilty, because you can't be perfect, we are in a cost of living crisis.”More InformationChocolate I recommend:Tony's ChocolonelyMind Your TemperBennettoSolomons Gold ChocolateTrade AidHonest ChocolatShe Universe Find our full podcast via the website here:https://www.nowthatswhaticall.com/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/nowthatswhaticallgreen/You can follow me on socials on the below accounts.Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/briannemwest/TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@briannemwestLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/briannemwest/For our latest big project, find out more about Incrediballs here: https://incrediballs.com/

Listen to today's podcast... Do you reach for comfort foods when you are frustrated, tired, or stressed out? I do. I crave chocolate covered almonds, coffee flavoured Hagen Daas Ice Cream, and Cadbury mini eggs. These cravings are worse when I am emotional or feeling out of control. We know that cortisol increases food cravings for sugary or fatty foods. It also increases hunger hormones which can lead to us making poor nutritional choices. Take One Action Today To Build Your #Resiliency!      Here are today's Tips For Building Resiliency and Celebrating National Emotional Over-Eating Month: Emotional overeating is a huge topic. Using food as a way of attempting to cope with or control feelings can lead to weight gain and poor nutrition. It is a problem when the emotional overeating leaves you feeling unhappy, guilty, and less than. Eating can distract you and calm you. You may see it as a reward…a way of doing something special for yourself. Start by understanding which emotions increase your cravings. Create a clear picture of what “peace with food” means for you. Visualize yourself at your best and the role you want food and eating to play in your life. Look for ways to indulge and reward yourself without turning to food. One site suggested to look for things that smell good rather than taste good – I am attracted to hand creams and fabric sprays, so maybe that will work for me as a mood booster. Another suggested to look for things that feel good – like a fuzzy blanket or sweater. It is all about addressing the habit to reach for foods that in the end, don't satisfy or leave you feeling less than. Looking for more tips to build your resiliency?

Here's a quick recap of the history of chocolate. And correct, Meredith never knows how to pronounce anything. It's all good:Ancient OriginsChocolate's history dates back over 3,000 years to Mesoamerica (modern-day Mexico and Central America). The Olmecs (1500-400 BCE) were likely the first to cultivate cacao and use it for ceremonial drinks. Later, the Mayans and Aztecs adopted cacao, turning it into a bitter, spiced beverage called “xocoatl,” often mixed with chili, vanilla, and honey. The Aztecs valued cacao so highly that they used cacao beans as currency.Chocolate Arrives in EuropeIn the early 1500s, Spanish explorers, including Hernán Cortés, brought cacao to Spain. The Spanish sweetened the bitter drink with sugar and cinnamon, making it a luxury for the elite. Over the next century, chocolate spread across Europe, becoming a favorite among royalty, including King Louis XIV of France.The Birth of Modern ChocolateBy the 19th century, advancements in processing made chocolate more accessible:1828: Dutch chemist Coenraad van Houten invented the cocoa press, creating cocoa powder and making chocolate smoother.1847: The British company J.S. Fry & Sons created the first solid chocolate bar.1875: Swiss chocolatier Daniel Peter combined chocolate with milk, inventing milk chocolate. His friend Henri Nestlé helped refine the process.1879: Rodolphe Lindt developed conching, giving chocolate a smoother texture.The Chocolate BoomBy the 20th century, major brands like Hershey's (1900), Cadbury, and Mars made chocolate widely available, mass producing chocolate bars, truffles, and confections.Today, chocolate remains one of the world's most beloved treats, evolving into a multibillion-dollar industry with artisanal and ethical chocolate production gaining popularity.

Jim's guest this week on The CMO Podcast is Victoria Lozano, the EVP of Marketing at Crayola, the 122-year-old brand founded in Easton, Pa. by Edwin Binney and C. Howard Smith. The first Crayola product was a box of eight crayons, and sold for a nickel. Crayola is one of the most well-known brands in the world–brand awareness in the US is 99%.Since the mid-1980s, Crayola has been part of the Hallmark portfolio of brands, which includes Hallmark and Hallmark Media. Today's Crayola is a very different business than it was even 15 years ago. Its purpose is unchanged–to help parents and educators raise creatively active kids. But it has morphed from a product company to a brand in the entertainment, content and experience spaces. Victoria has been with Crayola 15 years, about three as EVP of Marketing. Before Crayola, Victoria studied Classics at NYU and then earned her MBA there at the Stern school. After stints in CPG with Pfizer and Cadbury, Victoria moved to Crayola, where she has found the perfect fit for her. Tune in for a conversation around creativity, brand building and parenting.--Watch the videos as part of the Campaign for Creativity: https://www.crayola.com/featured/campaign-for-creativityLearn more about Crayola Creativity Week: https://creativity-week.squarespace.com/See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
