**What if good design isn't just about what we create, but what we're willing to stand for?** George Aye, Co-Founder and Co-Executive Director of Greater Good Studio, has built his career around that question. Born in Myanmar and raised in England, George grew up with a family story shaped by courage, injustice, and sacrifice. His father spent years in a Burmese prison after being identified as an agitator against the country's military regime. That experience became part of the moral compass George carried into his own life and, eventually, into his work as a designer. His path was anything but planned. George nearly missed college, discovered design through engineering and 3D modeling, and eventually made his way to Chicago and IDEO, where he spent seven formative years. But success brought bigger questions. Who does design really serve? Who holds the power? And what responsibility do designers have to the people who ultimately live with the consequences of what they create? Those questions led George and his wife, Sara Cantor, to found Greater Good Studio in 2011, built around a defining decision: they would work exclusively with organizations in the social sector. In this episode of *Design Of*, George and Justin Ahrens talk about design, ethics, power, purpose, and the courage to say no. George shares how his father shaped his worldview, what he learned at IDEO, why he and Sara chose a different model for their studio, and why meaningful work sometimes begins with deciding what you will no longer do. We also explore **Pissed-Off Optimism**, the idea behind Angry Hour and the Livid Conference. It's a belief that we can see what's broken, be angry about it, and still refuse to give up hope that things can be better. And George shares the thinking behind his newest keynote, *Designing a New Social Contract*, built around one powerful question: **“What do we expect of each other when we're in need?”** It opens a conversation about aging, dignity, responsibility, community, and the systems we've inherited. This is a conversation about the lens we bring to our work, and how that lens shapes what we choose to build. **In this episode:** * George's unlikely path into design * The influence of his father and family story * Seven formative years at IDEO * Building Greater Good Studio with Sara Cantor * Designing for people, not just clients * Why saying no matters * Pissed-Off Optimism, Angry Hour, and the Livid Conference * Design ethics, power, dignity, and social impact * *Designing a New Social Contract* George Aye is the Co-Founder and Co-Executive Director of Greater Good Studio, a Chicago-based design practice dedicated exclusively to the social sector. His work explores design, ethics, power, social impact, and the responsibility designers have to the people affected by what they create.

The Enlightened Family Business Podcast Ep. 168: You Can't Change What You Can't Be With — A Conversation with David Young   In this episode of the Enlightened Family Business Podcast, host Chris Yonker sits down with David Young — somatic experiencing practitioner, collective trauma healer, co-executive director at Somatic Experiencing International, and founder of The Art of Collective Integration — for a wide-ranging conversation on one of the most underexplored dimensions of human development: why intelligent, well-educated people keep repeating patterns that hurt them, and what it actually takes to change. David brings a remarkable lineage to this work — the son of an African American former Black Panther-turned-missionary and a Taiwanese mother, trained in intelligence analysis, East Asian philosophy, pastoral ministry, and somatic psychology. Together Chris and David explore why transformation isn't a cognitive event but a full-body physiological experience; why self-help books give us the cherry on top without the cake underneath; the difference between cultivating performance and cultivating wisdom; how the nervous system holds patterns that fire faster than the speed of thought; why anxiety in the rising generation is best met with co-regulation before analysis; what resilience actually means and why it's the highway to both personal and collective change; and what it looks like to raise a generation that can hold the complexity of a volatile, uncertain, rapidly accelerating world. This is a conversation for anyone who has ever wondered why knowing better doesn't always lead to doing better.

What will it take for philanthropy to unlock the extraordinary potential of 501(c)(4)s? In this episode, co-hosts Glen Galaich and Ralph Lewin, Executive Director of the Peter E. Haas Jr. Family Fund, challenge the fake rules telling philanthropy to stay neutral, avoid risk, stick to funding 501(c)(3)s, and keep political work at arm's length. They're joined by Leah Greenberg, Co-Founder and Co-Executive Director of Indivisible, a nationwide movement of everyday people organizing across all 50 states. Leah pulls back the curtain on what happens after the protest: local organizing, voter registration, advocacy, mutual aid, relationship-building, and the hard work of turning moments of public anger into sustained political participation. She also challenges funders to stop treating 501(c)(3) status as a moral status and to take seriously what well-resourced 501(c)(4) work can unlock. Together, Leah, Ralph, and Glen pose a sharper question to philanthropy: if the goal is real democratic change, are funders willing to back the people actually organizing to win?

Join us for a private tour of the exhibit The Seat of Action: Long Island in the American Revolution and Beyond at the Long Island Museum. Running through October of this year, the exhibit tells the stories of the lives of people affected by the conflict at all levels of society. Joshua Ruff, Co-Executive Director, Collections and Programming, is our guide. You'll find some familiar faces along with new insights, mysteries, and revelations. There's the sword of loyalist Richard Hewlett, passed down through the same family over decades. There are muskets that Long Islanders carried into war. Belt buckles and ammo unearthed from British forts, portraits of the formerly enslaved, and of course a Culper Spy letter (from Benjamin Tallmadge to Robert Townsend). Along the way Joshua explains the challenges and opportunities this type of exhibit entails, working with the Museum's own collections as well as historical societies, libraries, and private collectors. The result is a rich experience that is the perfect capstone to this 250th anniversary year of the American Revolution and Long Island history.

Following Andy Burnham's appointment as Britain's Prime Minister, there is renewed interest in what some have described as ‘Manchesterism' – a political philosophy rooted in place, economic renewal and the belief that national prosperity begins with strong local communities. But if this approach were to shape government thinking, what could it mean beyond Britain's borders?This episode explores whether a place-based politics could shift Britain's foreign policy. Would international engagement be judged less by Britain's global status and more by whether it delivers prosperity and security for communities at home? Could trade, diplomacy and development become tools of regional renewal? Any new government would also inherit profound constraints. With pressure to increase defence spending, sluggish economic growth and difficult choices over taxation and public services, how would a Manchesterist approach balance competing priorities? What role would overseas development assistance play? And what happens to Britain's soft power if resources become increasingly scarce? More broadly, does Britain need a different organising principle for foreign policy in an era where domestic resilience and international engagement are becoming increasingly intertwined? GuestsSara Pantuliano (host), Chief Executive, ODI GlobalRoli Ashtana, Senior Advisor, ODI Global & Senior Research Associate at South African Institute of International Affairs (SAIIA)Laura Chappell, Associate director for international policy, IPPRKate Ferguson, Co-Executive Director, Protection ApproachesRelated resourcesBurnham, Manchesterism and the return of place in foreign policy (LSE blog, by Roli Ashtana)Navigating trade-offs in the global economy: A framework for a world between orders (Report, IPPR)

Summer is here, temperatures are rising — and so are electric bills. That also means many people are facing a severely overlooked issue: power shutoffs. According to a report by the U.S. Energy Information Administration, in 2024 utility companies disconnected U.S. households from electricity more than 13.4 million times due to a customer's inability to pay. When that happens, people can't turn on their lights, keep food refrigerated, or cool down the home. And regulations preventing shutoffs during extreme heat events are woefully inadequate.  But when utilities help pay the upfront costs of efficiency upgrades, the customers and utilities can both save energy — and money. How do we protect the most vulnerable people from the dangers of home power shutoffs?  Guests: Jean Su, Energy Justice Director, Center for Biological Diversity  Sanya Carley, Co-Director, Energy Justice Lab, University of Pennsylvania Tamara Jones, Co-Executive Director, Clean Energy Works Highlights: 00:00 Introduction     4:15 Jean Su on topline takeaways from nationwide data 10:04 Jean Su on why utilities don't cover the cost of non-payment  12:55 Jean Su on polices to prevent shutoffs 16:16 Jean Su on the reality of underreported shutoffs  22:17 Sanya Carley on what happens to a household when a shutoff occurs 25:15 Sanya Carley on seeking help after a shutoff 27:44 Sanya Carley on federal impact on shutoffs 29:56 Sanya Carley on what state legislatures can do  35:25 Tamara Jones on working for justice 38:09 Tamara Jones on who is impacted by energy injustice 46:14 Tamara Jones on examples of where policy gets it right 50:56 Tamara Jones on what work needs to be done in policy and regulation For show notes, related links, and episode transcript, visit our episode page at climateone.org Join Climate One for an induction cooking demonstration night on July 21, at 6 p.m. at the Commonwealth Club in San Francisco.

In this in-depth interview, Stacy Mitchell from the Institute for Local Self-Reliance discusses the monopolistic practices in the food industry, Amazon's dominance, and the impact of market concentration on local communities and food deserts.

Her work focuses on dismantling concentrated corporate power and building thriving communities and a healthy democracy. She is Co-Executive Director of the Institute for Local Self-Reliance, an organization that for five decades has challenged the wisdom of neoliberalism and championed local, community-oriented models — from municipal broadband to distributed solar power, community banks, family farms, and local businesses. Stacy has played a leading role in today's growing antimonopoly movement, helping to popularize its ideas and secure its embrace by the Biden Administration.

In 2016, she co-authored Amazon's Stranglehold, an influential report that “provided a road map for a new, more critical approach to the e-commerce colossus,” the New York Times noted in a profile of her in 2020. Congress cited her research on Amazon's monopolization strategy in its investigation of Big Tech's dominance in 2021 and her work informed the Federal Trade Commission's antitrust lawsuit against the company in 2023.Through her advocacy, Stacy has advanced policies that expand community self-determination and build happier, more prosperous, and more sustainable places. In 2022, the political strategy firm Baron named her to its list of the top ten “antitrust super influencers” for her role in shaping federal policymaking and discourse.

Today our guest is Derrick Lawson, co-executive director of CATLL and CASCD and a former principal at all three school levels. Derrick shares practical strategies for building relational capacity with staff and students at the start of the school year, and why the first days of school should be spent on connection, not content. He also explains how school leaders can build staff capacity for relationship-building by modeling connection activities, creating shared resources, and embedding brief connection routines into every staff meeting throughout the year. In this conversation, Derrick offers important reminders for educators and leaders: Students will not learn at their best until they feel seen, heard, and valued, and that environment has to be built intentionally before content can stick. Teachers who say relationship-building "isn't their thing" often just lack a structure or script. Giving them ready-made activities and modeling them first removes that barrier. When leaders model connection activities with staff, teachers replicate them in their classrooms. What you put in front of people is what you are most likely to see spread. Ten years from now, students and staff will not remember individual lessons, they will remember how you made them feel.

"We can pass 10 executive orders. We can put $500 million for drug development. And if we don't have people who are willing to hold that space... we're not going to get anywhere." - Ismail Lourido Ali, MAP Co-CEOOn April 18th, just days before 420, Bicycle Day and MAPS' own 40th anniversary, Donald Trump signed an executive order on psychedelics. But what does it mean? Especially for psychedelic practitioners themselves.Today on the Psychedelic Therapy Podcast I sit down with MAPS Co-Executive Director Ismail Lourido Ali to learn what it actually means for the people doing the work. Together we unpack the executive order from the ground up: what it legally can and can't do, why ibogaine has suddenly kicked down the door while MDMA and psilocybin wait in line, and the strange political alchemy that made this happen. We cover the key distinctions between decriminalization, medicalization, and legalization; MAPS' evolving role as a multicultural bridge-builder at this pivot point; the sovereignty of Gabon and the very real risks of biopiracy in ibogaine's commercialization; and the danger of silver-bullet thinking. The conversation ends with the practitioners themselves, and the irreplaceable human work of preparation, presence, and integration that no executive order can replicate.Ismail Lourido Ali, JD is the Co-Executive Director of MAPS (Multidisciplinary Association for Psychedelic Studies) alongside co-director Betty Aldworth. A philosopher by training and a lawyer by vocation, he previously served as MAPS Director of Policy, worked in criminal justice reform at the ACLU of Northern California, and co-founded the Psychedelic Bar Association. He has been active in psychedelic drug policy reform for over a decade.Timestamps: (01:00) Ismail's first six months as MAPS Co-CEO (07:00) Decrim, medicalization, legalization (12:00) What Trump's executive order actually does (and doesn't do) (19:00) Why ibogaine?

A new farming advocacy group is pushing for the government only to import meat that matches New Zealand's farming standards. 'Fair for Farmers' says that overseas pig meat undermines animal welfare standards, and kiwi farmer's ability to compete. Animal Policy International Co-Executive Director Rainer Kravets told Heather du Plessis-Allan that, 'around 60% of pork in our market comes from overseas and most of it is produced using standards that would be illegal here.' The group has faced criticism from other farming collectives about the motives behind their cause. LISTEN ABOVESee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Do you work with family? How does relationship-based networking impact your life? Your company?  Your bottom line? What are some of the biggest misconceptions about networking? In this week's episode of The Crushing Debt Podcast, Shawn & George talk to Spencer Reynolds and his son Kamryn Reynolds, Co-Executive Directors of BNI Tampa. Originally from Northern Utah, Spencer and his family packed up and  moved to Florida in 2017, trading mountains for sunshine and lakes. With  his wife, Tricia, running the show (let's be honest, she's the boss) and their  four incredible kids—three adventurous adult sons and their adopted  princess, almost 16—they're all about outdoor thrills, especially water sports  and international adventure travel. And when we say "thrills," we mean it!  Spencer's an adrenaline junkie—skydiving, hang gliding, mountain biking,  and even trekking to Everest Base Camp with his brothers. If it involves  speed, heights, or a near-death experience, he's probably done it… twice.   (Ask about their Grand Canyon White Water Rafting trip from last year,  wild!)  Before becoming the networking master he is today, Spencer spent 12  years as a mortgage broker before making the leap into professional  speaking and training in 2005. He's taken the stage in every major city  across the U.S. and Canada, teaching professionals how to build systems,  work By Referral Only, and grow businesses the right way with referrals.  Through BNI, he's expanded his reach globally, inspiring thousands of  entrepreneurs to unlock the power of relationships.

He's the founder of Articulate Advantage, helping professionals speak with power, clarity, and confidence. A USF grad, Eagle Scout, and fluent Spanish speaker after serving a two-year mission in Argentina.  Kamryn now specializes in keynotes and trainings for high-end hotels and resorts. Known for his high energy and practical frameworks, he's on a mission to become an Ironman, a TEDx speaker, and an international voice for intentional communication. He lives by one core belief: connection is the currency of opportunity.  Spencer, Kamryn, George & Shawn talk about: What surprises them the most about working together. Early money lessons.

Welcome to Season 12 of the Fueling Creativity in Education podcast! In this special preview episode, co-hosts Dr. Matthew Worwood and Dr. Cyndi Burnett reflect on major milestones—five years of podcasting and 250 published episodes—and offer a glimpse into the conversations ahead. This season dives deep into Teaching Creativity, where it is most challenged: within systems, under pressure, and through the everyday decisions educators and learners make. With a strong foundation now in place, Season 12 focuses on building from within the system—exploring how creativity can be nurtured, sustained, and expanded in real-world educational contexts. What to Expect This Season Drs. Matt and Cyndi preview several early episodes that highlight new and timely dimensions of Creativity in Education, including: Creativity in Sport How do athletes make creative decisions under pressure? A conversation with pioneering researcher Daniel Memmert explores creativity, play, constraints, and risk-taking in high-stakes environments. Pushing the Boundaries of Public Education Kicking off the season is Carlos Moreno, Co-Executive Director of Big Picture Learning, who shares an unconventional yet scalable model of public education rooted in student agency, real-world learning, and creative self-direction. Creative Self-Belief and Identity An upcoming episode with Michał Kowalski examines creative self-efficacy, identity, and motivation—especially for today's learners—raising important questions about passion, agency, and growth. Constructive Dialogue in the Classroom With Caroline Mehl from the Constructive Dialogue Institute, the hosts explore why meaningful dialogue is essential for creativity, empathy, and learning—and how educators can intentionally cultivate it.   Be sure to subscribe on your favorite platform and sign up for our Extra Fuel newsletter for more resources and inspiration.
