Podcasts about changing the narrative

How can we bring wisdom to those with power and power to those with wisdom?  If we were to step into elder hood and bring the best of ourselves to the table, could we create governance structures that would help to heal our cultural divides, create equity and guide is wisely through the coming crisis? Jenny Grettve believes we can and has set up a global council to make this happen.  Jenny is a good friend of the podcast. She joined us in episode #228 to talk about designing and building a school along Doughnut economic lines and then again in episode #249 to talk about the evolution of a Mothering Economy based on the values of compassion and care for future generations.  Jenny is an author, philosopher, systems thinker and designer, author of several books, most recently the Mothering Economy that we talked about the last time we met. Then, she was leading WhenWhen, a new feminist design agency that creates system demonstrators to test ideas generated by global researchers working with the climate crisis and sustainable life.  She was still working there last November when Donald Trump managed to take the US Presidency again. Amidst all the shock and horror of that moment, I saw a post Jenny put up on LinkedIn, proposing the creation of a Global Council of Women as a way to bring forward the values that our world needs at this moment of total transformation.  I signed up on the spot and then asked Jenny to come and talk to us about it, so that the idea might spread in the Accidental Gods spheres.  And then as I was doing the reading for this episode, I found that Jenny had started the year in a new post - that she is now Head of Transformation at a European Council funded organisation called EIT - that's European Innovation and Technology - Culture and Creativity.  Which means Jenny is now taking the wisdom of creativity right into the heart of the bureaucracy that sustains the super organism, at least in the EU.  So here we are, considering the nature of wisdom and elder hood, how we might overcome the gender divides that so assail us in service to life - and how to bring creative ideas deep into the heart of machine.  Please know that the Council is not only for women - the first meeting is exploring whole, healthy masculinity and how it can be prioritised in this world. Which feels like such an integral part of our thinking now.  So please do join - the link is below.  Women Council https://www.womencouncil.world/Jenny Grettve https://www.jennygrettve.com/EIT Culture and Creativity https://eit-culture-creativity.eu/Jenny on LinkedIn https://www.linkedin.com/in/jennygrettve/EIT Culture and Creativity on LinkedIn https://www.linkedin.com/company/eit-culture-creativity/Jenny in Episode 228 https://accidentalgods.life/evolving-education-building-a-doughnut-school-with-jenny-grettve-of-whenwhen/Jenny in Episode 249 https://accidentalgods.life/finding-the-courage-to-care-ways-to-build-a-mothering-economy-with-author-jenny-grettve/

LISTEN TO THIS EPISODE IF YOU ARE BUILDING YOUR BUSINESS FOR FREEDOM In this episode, I'm sharing what's been heavy on my heart lately—my journey of building a business that truly prioritizes freedom. I used to believe that overworking and sacrificing my happiness were necessary for success. I ran a multi-million-dollar business that left me feeling anything but free. It took a lot of reflection to realize that the hustle culture narrative wasn't for me, and now, I'm on a mission to show others that there's a better way. You don't have to hate the process of growth to build something meaningful. If it takes a little longer to grow your business, or if your vision of success doesn't involve making millions, that's okay. What matters is creating a life and business you actually enjoy—one that allows for rest, strong relationships, and happiness along the way. If you're feeling stuck in the grind but know there's a better way forward, this episode is for you.

This episode of Girl with a Pearl dives into the transformative power of aging with purpose. But this journey doesn't begin in later years—it starts with how we view aging and respect our elders from a young age. How we honor and value the wisdom, experiences, and contributions of individuals across every stage of life defines the strength of our communities.

As co-founders of this innovative initiative, they're reshaping leadership and workplace culture with groundbreaking, age-positive solutions. Through their dynamic traveling events, Zoe and Amy deliver cutting-edge strategies tailored for the booming Aging & Wellbeing Economy—proving that age is not a barrier to innovation but a catalyst for progress. Tune in to hear why these passionate advocates, at a young age, are working tirelessly to shift the narrative and help us celebrate aging as an enriching, empowering process. This isn't just about growing older—it's about living fully and embracing every stage of life with the respect and recognition it deserves. Tune in!

Trigger Warning - this show briefly discusses difficult topics including self-harm and suicide. Gethin Jones is a survivor, but what few people would have believed, (including Gethin), was that he would also become an international speaker and thought leader.  Growing up in the care system, he spent a total of 8 years in prison, battled intravenous heroin addiction, and was trapped in destructive patterns that seemed destined to lead him to more prison time or an early death. He found the will to change his life and a way to transform his own narrative arc, and today he shares his story and offers hope and a different future to others incarcerated and employed within the justice system. Gethin leads Unlocking Potential, a company that works within prisons, probation services, local authorities, and charities across the UK, Australia, and America. He delivers keynote talks, workshops, training, eLearning, and consultancy, aimed at helping individuals, teams and creating a justice system that is fair and fit for purpose for everyone.  If you are struggling to overcome imposter syndrome, or finding it a challenge to get traction with your message, then listen up because you will get inspiration and insight from Gethin's journey from inmate to international speaker.  Enjoy!   What you'll discover: The story of Gethin's transformation from inmate to international speaker. What prison pipelines are and how Gethin is trying to change the justice system.  How he busts the myths to shift the narrative about reform.  How he positions his talk and services to connect with a business audience.  The mindset and practical steps that enabled Gethin to build a speaking career from one networking meeting in 2016. Gethin's advice if you feel that you have a message that no-one wants to hear because it is difficult and challenging.  How Gethin approached the first talk he gave.  Why Gethin always approaches speaking as a pupil with something to learn.

Dr. Vincent Pieribone, Co-CEO and Chief Science Officer of OceanX, discusses the organization's evolution and its shift in messaging. OceanX was founded by Ray and Mark Dalio, inspired by the need to celebrate and protect the ocean. Initially, the focus was on conducting exciting scientific expeditions and showcasing the beauty of the ocean through compelling media. However, as OceanX gained popularity and recognition, they began to receive requests from governments and organizations seeking solutions to ocean-related issues. This prompted a pivot in their mission to not only highlight the ocean's beauty but also to emphasize the urgent need for solutions to the problems facing it, such as overfishing, pollution, and climate change. Parabon emphasizes that while the science surrounding these issues is well-established, the focus now is on actionable solutions. OceanX aims to inspire a love for the ocean, which will lead to its protection, and to engage in partnerships that foster sustainable practices. The organization recognizes the importance of showcasing success stories and innovative solutions, thereby shifting from a predominantly doom-and-gloom narrative to one that highlights hope and potential for positive change. This new direction aims to mobilize public interest and action, ultimately benefiting both the ocean and humanity.

As Vice President Kamala Harris making a strong bid for the U.S. presidency, HKS Women and Public Policy Program Co-Director Hannah Riley Bowles says Harris is just one of many “path breakers” who have dramatically increased leadership opportunities for women. But she also says the reaction to Harris' campaign in the media and the public conversation shows how the popular narrative about the efficacy of female leaders still lags behind the reality of what successful women are achieving. And she says that narrative also isn't supported by research, including multiple studies showing that on average women are actually rated higher than men for a number of important leadership qualities associated with performance.  Bowles is the Roy E. Larsen Senior Lecturer in Public Policy and Management at the HKS, she chairs the HKS Management, Leadership, and Decision Sciences (MLD) Area, and she is currently wrapping up her tenure as co-director of the Center for Public Leadership. She's a recognized expert in the study of negotiation and gender. She joins PolicyCast host Ralph Ranalli to talk about how studies say women in leadership roles are really performing, the ways women can successfully attain positions of responsibility and power despite traditional obstacles, and some forward-looking policy recommendations that could make things better. Hannah Riley Bowles' Policy Recommendations:- Adopt family-friendly workplace policies that engage men equally in unpaid family and caregiving work.- Adopt more transparency in salary standards and more equity in making both women and men aware of the resources available to help them achieve higher-paying positions and positions of authority.- Require organizations to report their gender pay gaps to help them determine whether women are underpaid compared to men in the same job or if they are underrepresented in higher-level positions.Hannah Riley Bowles is the Roy E. Larsen Senior Lecturer in Public Policy and Management at the Harvard Kennedy School (HKS). Hannah chairs the HKS Management, Leadership, and Decision Sciences (MLD) Area and co-directs the HKS Women and Public Policy Program (WAPPP) and the Center for Public Leadership. A leading expert on gender in negotiation, Hannah's research focuses on women's leadership advancement and the role of negotiation in educational and career advancement, including the management of work-family conflict.

Disability is a topic often surrounded by stigma and misconceptions, particularly within Kenyan communities, where the burden can become a significant financial strain on families. In Kenya, parents of children with disabilities face not only a lack of acceptance and support but also the heavy weight of stigma, which exacerbates their struggles.    In this episode of Parenting Impossible, Annette Hines and Thitu Muiruri, an accomplished filmmaker, sheds light on the pervasive stigma surrounding disabilities in African communities. Muiruri's documentary work delves into the struggles faced by parents of children with disabilities, revealing the harsh realities of societal judgment, lack of support, and financial hardships. Through her documentaries and short films, she seeks to spark critical discussions and educate the public about the challenges individuals with disabilities face. It's through these conversations that people can truly understand different perspectives, learn from one another, and work towards positive change.   In this episode, you will hear: What challenges parents of children with disabilities in Kenya face. How societal attitudes add to the struggles of individuals with disabilities and their families. What role informal support networks among mothers play in the disabilities community. What efforts are needed to provide resources and support to mothers of children with disabilities.

We delve into her work with the Healing Exchange, where she uses her creative talents to inspire and heal others, emphasizing the importance of narrative and connection in overcoming trauma.  Keisha Brown's story as a previvor [note: We all know "survivor" when you live through hell and back, and you end up still being alive, and having to start over your life with a completely different perspective. A "previvor" is someone who chooses to go through proactive measures, such as mastectomy, to reduce the risk of developing breast cancer.] Keisha M. Brown is an advocate, speaker, and writer dedicated to raising awareness about her experiences as a previvor. Having undergone proactive measures to reduce her risk of developing cancer, Keisha shares her inspiring journey and insights into navigating the challenges of being a previvor. Her passion lies in empowering others facing similar circumstances, offering support, guidance, and a voice of understanding in the realm of cancer prevention and wellness. Through her advocacy work and personal story, Keisha strives to foster a community of strength, resilience, and hope for individuals confronting the unknowns of genetic predispositions and their impact on health.

Keisha M Brown's book, "Facing the Unknown", is an honest and inspiring account of her journey as a previvor. Through her story, Brown hopes to inspire others to prioritize their own wellness and take steps towards a healthier, happier life. She believes that by making small changes and incorporating self-care into our daily routines, we can all experience the transformative power of wellness.   The weight of grief is heavy, many people think of grief as losing a loved one, but it is much deeper. In the early part of my journey, I didn't realize I was grieving the loss of my breast until I removed the bandages.   Brown's journey as a previvor, and her path to wellness, is a testament to the power of resilience, self-care, and the human spirit. It is a reminder that even in the face of adversity, we have the power to take charge of our health and wellbeing, and lead fulfilling, satisfying lives.     Connect with Keisha M.

When you saw women on the cover of magazines like Seventeen and Cosmo while growing up, what did you see? They didn't tend to include physical strength in their image of the “ideal” female figure, did they?In fact, some find women with “too much” muscle a turn-off. But strength is beautiful too and perfectly acceptable for us as women to display. We just have to remember that for ourselves and pass that attitude down to the next generation.Alyssa Ages is advocating for just that, not only with her two young daughters but also with her book Secrets of Giants. In part two of our conversation on The Wonder Women Podcast, you'll learn about the importance of promoting a culture of empowerment and resilience by challenging the dichotomous message women hear regarding strength and beauty.
