In episode #135, host Chris Hoff sits down with contemplative scholar Brooke Lavelle and philosopher and activist Katrine Bregengaard to explore the emerging field of pluriversal practice—a response to the limitations of "one-world-worlding" that dominate our movements, institutions, and inner lives. Drawing on their co-authored essay (with Maha El-Sheikh) in The Arrow Journal and their work with the Courage of Care Coalition, Brooke and Katrine share how pluriversal frameworks invite us into deeper relationality, cognitive flexibility, and radical imagination. They unpack how dominant systems often reproduce themselves inside the very movements meant to resist them—and offer practices for undoing that replication through somatics, contemplative inquiry, and collective care. This is a rich conversation on healing, liberation, and building the worlds we dream of—worlds where many worlds fit.

Dr. John Toussaint, Catalysis' Executive Chairman of the Board and Steve Shortell, Co-Founder of the Center for Lean Engagement and Research (CLEAR) at the University of California – Berkley, follow-up with us on the discussion they started on episode 85 about their article “The Better Care Plan: A Blueprint for Improving America's Healthcare System” and the coalition workgroups that have started up.
Maternity Care Coalition is a organization that began in Philadelphia to advocate for the wellbeing of pregnant people and infants. Samia Bristow is the Vice President of Programs for MCC. “We started in 1980 as a coalition. And we were really concerned about the high infant mortality rates in the Philadelphia community. And we learned a lot from that work early on. And what we found was that many families were having challenges with access to services. Barriers in terms of accessing services, lack of resources.” MCC provides many services to those in need such as home visiting, childcare, behavioral health and so much more. They also bring services straight to their participants with their MOMObile® . “So, there is a vehicle, and it is known as the mom mobile. And that really started because we really were like beating the pavement, right. As a grassroots organization, meeting people where they were in a community. So, popping up at street corners, engaging in conversation. And people started to recognize us in the community. And we developed our model bill because essentially at that time we were, you know, serving women and children. Right? Really focused on ensuring that people birthing people had healthy outcomes. So really wanting to target pregnant women.” Those interested in becoming an advocate with Maternity Care Coalition can visit them on their website. There's many opportunities with the non-profit for those wanting to lend a helping hand. “There are a number of opportunities available if someone is interested in coming and, you know, becoming an advocate, be an employee by NCC. But there's also two volunteer opportunities. There's internship opportunities. You know, we encourage people, you know, to get involved where they see themselves, right? Like there could be an event, there could be, you know, sharing of information, right? So, advocacy and being an advocate looks different for each individual person. And we want to we want you to find where you find your avenue and we want you to be, you know, change agents of that. Right? So, sharing information is another way that someone can really advocate and support us and meeting our mission and also to build an awareness.” Support WITF: https://www.witf.org/support/give-now/See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
From Combat to Community: The Legacy of James Lorraine In this week's Team Never Quit episode, Marcus and Melanie welcome James Lorraine, a distinguished veteran with over 22 years of service in the U.S. Air Force as a flight nurse and military operations leader. Jim's extensive career spans multiple combat zones, and upon retirement, he became a trailblazer in veteran advocacy, founding the United States Special Operations Command Care Coalition—a gold standard organization serving over 8,000 special operations forces members and their families. Following his government service, Jim established America's Warrior Partnership, an organization impacting the lives of over 60,000 veterans by enhancing their quality of life, reducing homelessness, and improving access to critical services. James Lorraine's Notable Achievements: • Bronze Star Medal and Secretary of Defense Outstanding Civilian Medal recipient. • Founding Director of the U.S. Special Operations Command Care Coalition and America's Warrior Partnership. • 2015 Presidential Leadership Scholar and active member of various veteran advisory committees. Join us for an inspiring conversation that sheds light on the unwavering spirit of our veterans and the vital role of community in their journey to find purpose post-service. In This Episode You Will Hear: • I'd wake up at 5am, throw my hockey equipment on, and walk in below freezing weather, like about ½ mile to the ice rink for practice at 5:30am. Practice until 7am, then from there, with my hockey bag, I'd go to school, all sweaty and nasty, and when I was finished, I'd go back to the hockey rink. (4:31) • When I was getting recruited to go into the Air Force reserve, I was in a terrible car accident, and I amputated my left foot. And through a series of miraculous events, the next morning I woke up – best sight I ever had in my life. I woke up, looked down; I had sheets over my legs, and there were two points. (9:52) • I went to the recruiter to join the Air Force, and realized I was color blind. I couldn't fly but I had a nursing degree. They had flight nurses, and you can fly in the back of the plane. • The drive is: “I want to serve.” (12:10) • On the 4th of July, I make my kids read the constitution. (23:44) • [Marcus: Medical Training on live animals] That was the best training. Every time I had to work on a human, it was actually easier [because of it]. (27:06) • [When they attempted to reassign me] my response was “You made the hardest decision of my life the easiest. I'm out.” (30:29) • [Melanie] “When you have your mind, you can do anything.” (37:08) • Everything you did Monday thru Friday prepares you for the following Monday. (37:16) • I went thru a lot of shit, I went through things I should have never done. So how has that made me better? Don't look at it as “I'm disabled” How does that make you better? (37:29) • All these experiences led me to found the Care Coalition. (37:49) • I'm a stalker on Social Media. I don't post a lot, but I watch. I'm friends with most of the real high risk [people] – because I started to watch their social media. (44:28) • I have a friend that has a text train with his platoon. No suicides. They all stay in touch. (48:01) • If you say to somebody: “I have your back. No matter what happens to you. You're gonna get thru this. I'm here with you. I think this is why we were successful at the Care Coalition. (50:04) When I talk to and help folks, I'll ask: “Where do you want to be in 5 years? If they can't tell me where they want to be in 5 years, and can only tell me where they want to be tomorrow, that is a huge red flag for me. (50:22) • I think the biggest thing you can do is give a shit. (51:49) • I'm not gonna sit back and watch something. I'm gonna take action. (52:01) • Our approach is: Go find the vets; Connect; educate them about opportunities they have to improve their quality of life; and advocate for them when the hit a roadblock. Own the relationship – don't own the service. (55:00) • The last bar fight I ever got in was with Chris [Kyle]. (56:40) • There's a lot of people who try to do what they can do, but they don't have the background and expertise to handle it. (58:42) • What we offer at America's Warrior partnership is a group of social workers that are freaking experts at this.

Originally uploaded August 28th re-edited September 3rd. Chris Holman welcomes back Carrie Rosingana, , CEO, CAMW! Capital Area Michigan Works!, Lansing, MI, but serving Ingham, Eaton and Clinton Counties. THEME: Carrie recaps her presentation at the Capital Area Child Care Coalition Employer Roundtable on June 20 and discusses how employers can support their employees' child care needs. Question: On June 20, the Capital Area Child Care Coalition hosted an Employer Roundtable to foster workforce engagement and enhance childcare solutions. What is the Capital Area Child Care Coalition and what was discussed at the recent roundtable event? ● The Capital Area Child Care Coalition is a group of community leaders in Eaton, Clinton and Ingham Counties who want to increase the supply of high-quality child care. It is co-led by Lansing Economic Area Partnership, Capital Area Michigan Works! and United Way of South Central MI. ● At the Employer Roundtable we addressed the impact of child care on the capital area region's workforce. Our goal is to grow the Lansing region as one of the most innovative and prosperous communities in the country and ensure families have the support and resources they need to care for their families while entering or maintaining their position in the workforce. ● We not only reviewed the importance of accessible quality child care for economic prosperity and employment retainment, but we also covered strategies to support employees in overcoming child care barriers. ● The roundtable allowed employers and community leaders to gather together and brainstorm solutions to child care barriers that would transform challenges into opportunities for the capital area. ○ Collaborations between businesses, government and nonprofits can create effective child care programs, benefiting the entire community. Carrie, feel free to add any additional thoughts and information about why this topic is important to you. Question: How are child care disparities affecting the workforce today and why is it important to address? ● Unaffordable and non-available child care causes a decrease in employment retainment, increased stress on working parents and decreased workforce efficiency. ○ According to Michigan Advance, of the Michigan households who reported child care issues in 2024, 36% have cut work hours, 34% have taken unpaid leave, 31% have had to supervise their children while working and 26% have left a job due to child care disruptions. ○ Additionally, households with children under 12 that reported child care arrangement issues over the past four weeks climbed from 19.6% to 22.3% from fall 2023 to spring 2024. ● We are also seeing a mental health crisis impacting working mothers nationwide. According to reports in Talkspace, 66% of working moms say they're not mentally healthy and 93% report feeling burned out. ○ Struggles listed by working mothers include: ■ Limited or no flexibility in scheduling. ■ Inadequate maternity leave and postpartum support. ■ Little compassion from leadership and coworkers. ■ Lack of child care options. ● In many cases, one parent is forced to stay home for extended periods of time to watch their children because there are no alternatives. Other times, families cannot afford to stop working and must financially strain in order to maintain child care. Question: How can people learn more about the Capital Area Child Care Coalition? ● You can visit the informational page on CACCC at puremichigan.com/childcare to learn more about their mission. ● If you are interested in joining the Coalition, you can submit a membership application at puremichigan.com/childcare/join. » Visit MBN website: www.michiganbusinessnetwork.com/ » Watch MBN's YouTube: www.youtube.com/@MichiganbusinessnetworkMBN » Like MBN: www.facebook.com/mibiznetwork » Follow MBN: twitter.com/MIBizNetwork/ » MBN Instagram: www.instagram.com/mibiznetwork/

Farashe, meaning 'butterfly' in Arabic, holds daily yoga and meditation classes, workshops and space for the community to come together in the West Bank to breathe, heal, play, and connect. Farashe Yoga Centre Instagram: @farasheyogaramallah Facebook: farasheyogacenter About Maha El-Sheikh Maha's 20 years of experience working in the international humanitarian and development sector led to her current focus on the social injustices underlying our global humanitarian crises and perpetuated by the modern humanitarian aid system. She partners with relational facilitators and leaders in the economic, racial and climate justice movements, and with international humanitarian and development groups and organizations to reimagine humanitarian aid through compassion-centered, counter-oppressive frameworks. She offers a trauma-informed yoga, somatic, and meditation approach to explore the interconnection of individual and collective healing, social and systemic transformation, and justice.

About Farashe Yoga Center: Farashe's mission is to make yoga accessible for all living in Palestine, as a means to manage stress, improve healthy living, build resilience, and strengthen community bonds. We believe that yoga is a catalyst for transformation and growth within ourselves, families, communities, and the world, whether through physical exercise and healthy nutrition, or through community service and development. Created, built, and run purely through volunteers and donations, Farashe is committed to the principles of “selfless service.” Our yoga teachers are all volunteers. Class fees are reinvested into the yoga center's maintenance, teacher training and education, Arabic-language yoga resource development, outreach yoga sessions in surrounding villages and refugee camps, and to community development projects identified by the communities we work with.

Today we hear the inspirational combat story of Eric Hollen, a former Ranger in 2/75 Ranger Regiment and Green Beret with 2nd Bn, 10th Special Forces Group. This is a unique episode where we filmed in person for a change while Eric and I were in Graham, Texas, courtesy of Greg Coker, who many will recognize from the podcast, for an aviation hog hunt to benefit veterans and gold star families. In this episode, Eric shares what was going through his head when he sustained a life-altering injury on his horse farm in Tennessee and how he persevered through dark times to reach a level of excellence very few will ever see. Eric was awarded USA Shooting's Paralympic Athlete of the Year two years in a row and competed in the Olympics as a shooter for the U.S. Hollen strives to help newly injured veterans through a program called the Care Coalition which supports injured Special Operations soldiers. I hope you enjoy his inspirational story as much as I did. Stay tuned at the end of the episode for a short clarification from Eric. #specialops #rangers #teamusa #olympics Show Notes 0:00 – Intro 0:42 - Eric's Bio 2:34 – First time holding a Firearm 6:11 – Eric's left turn moment 11:35 – Joining the military 13:46 - “I thought I was cold and miserable, and then a snowflake went right into my ear hole.” 14:59 – “We aren't there to hang out.

I have always been marginalized, but NEVER alone in the margins. When I created a Coalition as a part of the launch of my Second Edition, it immediately asked the question: "What if we all helped each other out of the margins? What if the disability community lifted the LGBTQUIA Community, and what if they held space for the BIPOC community, and we all changed theatre together?" Please meet the pioneers of Rock The Auditions CARE Coalition. They are the wild student and faculty at Oklahoma City University's Wanda L. Bass School of Music, who are changing the theatre culture at college with me, so we can change the industry from here. You can find OCU CARE on INSTA at @OCU_CARE.

Bill Hanvey, President and CEO of the Auto Care Association. Bill is engaging the automotive aftermarket to get involved in letting your legislators know the issue about data. Your help is needed to help in amending the right to repair legislation. Learn everything you can about this fight to amend the right to repair legislation. Ownership of Vehicle Telematic Data Must Flow to the Vehicle Owner. Do you know that a car collects data as you drive? By 2022, 87% of new vehicles will be transmitting telematic data wirelessly. But who owns the data? The car manufacturer does. Without access to data, the independent service professional will not be able to get specific diagnostic data from the vehicle. Bill leads the strategic direction of The Auto Care Association’s 3,000 members and 150,000 companies representing automotive manufacturers, distributors, and service providers. Find Bill’s other episodes (https://remarkableresults.biz/?s=Bill+Hanvey). Aaron Lowe, Senior Vice President, Regulatory and Government Affairs. Key Talking Points: Massachusetts Question 1 - “Right to Repair Law” Vehicle Data Access Requirement Initiative (2020) Find detailed data on the position from both sides and the support for and against: https://bit.ly/3iUdRFx (https://bit.ly/3iUdRFx) OEMs have invested $25 Million against this The aftermarket does 70% of the repairs The stakes are high and federal is following this Who has the data will determine who will repair cars in the future Ad campaign from the OEMs are telling the consumer that they will be stalkedThey are playing on fear They do have a foundation to stand on for why they should not allow access to mechanical data except for monopolization In Europe you have to do to the OEMs cloud for data and pay for it Aaron Lowe “If the manufactures determine the terms of the data, the independent part of the industry is dead”. This is a anti consumer initiative that would take choice away If they totally controlled the data the OEMs could determine who sells their cars Bill Hanvey: “It is ironic that the OEMs are criticizing the aftermarket for an accusation that is not true about accessing personal data, yet their business model is built upon selling that personal data”. Aaron Lowe is working with other industry groups and associations to work on federal legislation Opposition is spending a lot of money because they have a bad message In 2012 we won the Right To Repair by a 84%-16% margin. It won’t be that wide this time Message is simple: concentrating on consumer choice. It resonates with consumers and the voters in Massachusetts Any shop in Massachusetts please pass on the need to vote yes. Get the marketing materials to your customers.

IN THIS EPISODE: It can be hard to make tough decisions even in the best of circumstances. It’s even more challenging in times of crisis when you or a loved one are suffering with a chronic or potentially life-threatening illness or injury. It can be overwhelming and it’s easy to feel lost. It's the job of hospital chaplains to support patients and family members in navigating these trying times and helping them make what can be some of the most difficult decisions they will ever face. Today’s guest, Ted Taylor, is a chaplain and Director of Pastoral Care & Training at Robert Wood Johnson University Hospital Hamilton. Ted supervises the spiritual and emotional care provided by the hospital’s more than twenty volunteer and intern chaplains. He also supervises a clinical pastoral education training program affiliated with the College of Pastoral Supervision and Psychotherapy (CPSP). Ted is a liaison to nearby religious communities and partners with area congregations to provide compassionate support to neighbors in need. He also is a clinical resource for bioethical and end-of-life dilemmas. In today’s episode Ted and I discuss: what a chaplain does in their everyday work life; using “reverent listening” to discover, understand and clarify what’s most important; making sense of complex and/or vague situations; defining hopes instead of outcomes; and how to maintain a sense of resiliency and calm when the world around you is chaotic and tumultuous. ABOUT OUR GUEST: Chaplain Tedford J. Taylor, MDiv, BCCC, FHPC, Dip. CPS, Director, Pastoral Care & Training Ted joined Robert Wood Johnson University Hospital Hamilton in 2007 as the Director of Pastoral Care & Training.

Prior to this, Ted served as the executive director of the New Jersey Unit of Recording for the Blind & Dyslexic (now Learning Ally) in Princeton, NJ. Ted also has parish ministry experience as a lay pastor in the United Methodist Church and business administration experience as a community banking officer in the Baltimore, MD region. Engaged in the life of our greater community, Ted has served on the Board of Trustees for Mercer Street Friends (a local human services agency). Ted is also a founding member of the NJ Goals of Care Coalition. He is active as a member and treasurer of the Princeton Chapter of the College of Pastoral Supervision & Psychotherapy (CPSP) and serves on the Medical Society of New Jersey Bioethics Committee. On a national level, Ted is a member of the Certification Committee for CPSP, and also recently chaired the steering committee for Quakers in Pastoral Care & Counseling. Ted holds a diplomate in pastoral supervision through CPSP, and is board certified as a clinical chaplain with CPSP, with a clinical fellowship in hospice & palliative care. Ted is also a member of the Association of Professional Chaplains, the Association of Clinical Pastoral Education, and the American Society for Bioethics & Humanities. He holds a Master of Divinity degree from Baptist Theological Seminary at Richmond, a graduate certificate in Healthcare Law & Policy from Union Graduate College, and a Bachelor of Arts from The College of William & Mary. He has attended the theological studies programs at Regent's Park College at Oxford University, Oxford, England; and The Ecumenical Institute in Baltimore, MD.

In This Episode You Will Learn About: Mikhail coming to the United States Becoming a Ranger in the U.S. Army Transitioning from active duty to civilian Working together for a common goal The idea behind Ranger Road Funding goals that Ranger Road has An incredible story of success from Ranger Road How we can help Mikhail’s foundation Resources: Learn more: rangerroad.org Email: mikhail@rangerroad.org Instagram: @ranger_road ; @venikovrltw VIP Day: chris@fortheloveofmoney.com Show Notes: Today I’m honored to sit down with decorated U.S. Army Ranger, Mikhail Venikov. Mikhail is such an inspiring human, and he’s creating an incredible impact everyday in his life and nonprofit, Ranger Road. He is leading by example in the way that I, and so many others, want to show up in the world. This episode is full of the inspiration you need to change or do anything you have ever wanted. Be ready for emotion-fueled stories about the impact that his nonprofit has been able to create, and ways that you can help the movement. Question Highlights: What is the best lesson you’ve learned as a Ranger? When did Ranger Road start, and how does it gain funding? What role has generosity played in your success? How can we help your message? Guest Bio: Former 2d Ranger Battalion veteran Mikhail Venikov continues to live a life devoted to the principles of the Ranger Creed following his passion in mixed martial arts and establishing Ranger Road, an active duty and transition not for profit designed to bringing veterans and civilians together through extraordinary sports adventure experiences to assist in the transition process to civilian life. A native of Kazakhstan, Venikov's service in the 75th Ranger Regiment was defined by stellar accomplishment rooted in small unit leadership that included three combat tours. He was named Honor Graduate and Sgt Maj. Robert Spencer Enlisted Leadership Award recipient of his U.S. Army Ranger School class. In 2006, Mikhail and his partner Sgt. 1st Class John Sheaffer won the prestigious and physically demanding Army Best Ranger Competition. After completing his Army enlistment, Venikov graduated from the Sacramento Sheriff's Academy and was hired by the San Mateo Police Department where he eventually joined the city's SWAT team. After joining the SWAT team, a chance engagement with MMA legend Urijah Faber led to Venikov's dedication to become a professional MMA fighter with Team Alpha Male. The popularity of MMA within the military community provided Venikov a platform to launch Ranger Road. Since its inception Ranger Road has provided opportunities for active duty and veterans to participate in a variety of high adrenaline activities such as skydiving, wakeboarding, and MMA training. The events are provided at low and no cost. "We believe that the brotherhood and camaraderie found in the military is unparalleled in the civilian world," Venikov said. "We've learned that being amongst our brothers and sisters is better than any therapy and brings out the best in us and everything we do. We are here to lead the way." Venikov is actively pursuing a partnership with the United States Special Operations Command Care Coalition. The Care Coalition serves special operations forces wounded, ill, or injured service members and their families by, through, and with government and non-government organizations such as Ranger Road. Venikov is excited for the opportunity to continue to serve the special operations community. "We are all stronger together," Venikov said.

How do we leverage the contemplative community into justice and liberation for all, not just the pursuit of liberation for ourselves individually? In this conversation, we explore issues around uncomfortable topics - race, systems of white dominance and our collective embedded-ness in these systems. We also explore how contemplative practices must look at the suffering created by these systems in order to change them, and how Courage of Care Coalition is engaged in leading workshops, intensives and retreats to help bring us to these difficult and necessary conversations, and the sustained engaged practices of care.

Listen NowFamily caregivers are the most ignored providers of health care delivery despite the fact they constitute 30 percent of the adult population, or are 65 million Americans. Caregivers are more typically women, over fifty, spending 20 hours a week (over an average of five years) providing care most frequently for a family member typically a parent with dementia. They are literally the backbone of health care. Professionally, caregivers, half of whom work full time, incur lost wages, promotions, health insurance, retirement savings and frequently suffer deleterious physical and mental health effects. Nearly 80 percent of caregivers report needing more help and information with at least 14 specific topics related to caregiving. During this 31 minute interview Ms. Mintz discusses the varied and substantive contributions caregivers make and how their efforts can be better supported.Ms. Suzanne Mintz is the cofounder of the nonprofit the Caregiver Action Network (formerly the National Family Caregivers Association), an organization that provides both direct support for caregivers and advocates for legislative reform and other policy changes. Currently Ms. Mintz also serves on the board of National Patient Safety Foundation, the advisory council of the National Transitions of Care Coalition and the advisory board of the Partnership to Fight Chronic Disease. She was honored for her work in 2006 as one of the first 15 winners of the Purpose Prize.
