Celeste Hedlee is the author of SPEAKING OF RACE: Why Everybody Needs to Talk About Racism—and How to Do It (on-sale 11/2), In our conversation we talk about the importance of connecting the dots between privilege and wealth, how to actually ask questions about race without sticking your foot in your mouth, the role of social media in furthering discussions about race. And celeste's own challenges growing up as al light-skinned Black Jewish American, and having to defend this time and time again. Plus: I share some of my curiosities about my own race. More about Celeste: She is a self-described “light-skinned Black Jew” who has had to defend or define her race since childhood. In her career, Headlee has made it a priority to talk about race proactively but what she discovered is that those exchanges have rarely been productive. While many people say they want to talk about race, the reality is, they want to talk about race with people who agree with them. Now, using science, research and lived experience SPEAKING OF RACE provides insight and advice for how to have meaningful and impactful conversations about this crucial subject. This is the book for people who have tried to debate and argue with friends and have gotten nowhere; those who have stopped talking to a neighbor or dreaded a holiday dinner; and anyone who wants to better understand race and effect meaningful change as a society.

If you're a human on this planet, you've likely found yourself in a situation or two where you've felt like an outsider. That feeling can inspire us to conform so that we fit the mold and gain acceptance. Or, it can push us further inward towards isolation. Either way, if we're not experiencing deep bonds of acceptance that are based on who we really are, then whether we're surrounded by “friends” or quietly tucked away in the shadows, we still feel alone.As adults in the world, just like when we were kids on the playground, we're always trying to fit in and find our tribes. The search for connection and community never stops. That's because we, like the rest of nature, are in a constant state of evolution.So, we should expect that our friendships, relationships, and the type of work we do will evolve, too. Whether it's feeling alone in a sea of people or standing apart like a wallflower, the path to real connection is laid by leaning deeper into who we are. In this episode, Karlee explains why the concept of “fitting in” is more of an attempt to mold ourselves into being someone we just aren't, and why instead, we should be expanding in order to find “our people”. She lays out the levels of friendship that we experience in various aspects of our lives, and invites you to consider which ones are continuing to nourish you and which ones it might be ok to loosen your grip on in order to create space for evolution. She'll also share 4 important questions you can ask yourself if you need a little push to help you move into what's next.If you're ready to invite more authentic, nourishing connections into your life, then this episode is for you. What You'll Learn in This Episode:2 essential reasons why quitting is sometimes necessary (3:22)Learning to expand rather than trying to fit in (8:42)An example of the 3rd level communication that goes into making this podcast (15:37)Evaluating how you experience the 4 levels of friendship (20:28)4 questions that will help you move ahead into what's next (25:32)People Mentioned in this Episode:Suzanne Degges-White Ph.D.Dana LemayResources Mentioned in this Episode:**Episode: 3 Styles of professional communication?Article: Psychology Today. 2021.

U.S. DUPLICITY DURING THE PANDEMIC Special guest-host

Nothing is more destructive than working yourself to death in an unfulfilling 9-5 job simply because you think you have to. In this episode, Dan covers his theory about a conspiracy designed to control the masses into mind-numbing modern-day slavery. Some quotes from the episode: “I can't think of a belief system that hurts the individual more than looking around and asking ‘What's everyone else doing? That must be the right thing to do?'” There's a huge mass of unsuccessful people, and you look around at them and go “I guess that's what should be doing”? That doesn't make sense' Right now, there are government employees all around the world having meetings specifically to figure out how to waste the extra money you paid in taxes so that they can justify asking for that amount again. You get to Friday and think “Oh thank god, now I can just throw my money away on emotionally numbing activities and substances” and then you have to go back to work on Monday. Why is alcohol the only legal drug even though it's one of the most harmful? Because alcohol does something the other drugs don't do: it tranquilises you, and it tires you out. And I can't think of a more perfect drug to keep this system going. You're the one providing the value, and yet your employer is the one getting paid. The idea that what you're interested in can't make money or wouldn't be enjoyable [as a profession] is complete and utter bollocks. I can think of the most ridiculous things that make money just because someone gave it a go. --------- Get Dan Munro's latest book “THE NAKED TRUTH: Using Powerful Honesty to Enhance Your Confidence, Connections and Integrity”: https://www.brojo.org/pub/the-naked-truth-honesty-confidence-connections-integrity If you enjoyed this video, get access to more of BROJO's content and dozens of confidence-building online courses by joining today.

JOIN THE WAITING LIST FOR STUDIO BLOOM: www.assembledancestudiocoaching.com/studiobloom Enrolments open - 29th OCTOBER 2021 6AM! You might know me as a podcaster, business coach and dance studio owner. But do you know how I got into the industry? Like so many of you reading, my awesome Mum took me along to my first class at 3 years old and I was hooked. Once I graduated from school I did what most people from school did, went to university! But it was whilst I was studying (enjoying it, but not loving it) that I got a call one day from my Mum and she mentioned how a cute little hall near our house would be for a dance studio. That's all it took, one little suggestion and I was obsessed. Fast forward to today and I have now been in the industry for over 15 years! I started my studio at 19 and I would attend conferences and events filled with other dance studio owners or business owners and I had so many people saying to me, “you're so young”, “too young” or “wow, so young!”. I get it, looking back and now seeing 19 year olds, I was so young! But at the time, it pushed me. To have a successful studio I knew I HAD to work hard, but 24/7?? That's not what I signed up for! Whenever I attended these conferences or events, the one MAJOR topic that kept coming up when I spoke with more experienced DSOs was “I don't have enough time with my family”... trying to find that work/life balance was a big issue for a lot of DSO's and at the time, being 19, I didn't think much of it. I wasn't planning to have a family of my own at that time so I wasn't worried it would be an issue for me. That being said I knew I wanted a family in the future and like most DSO's starting out, I did EVERYTHING myself so I did often think back to those comments from DSO's struggling to find balance and I wanted to make sure when that time came me and my dance studio were well prepared for me to not be doing everything myself! So I started researching, learning & tweaking, trying to figure out what is the best way to build my business processes and systems! I knew you could grow or build a sustainable business with the business steps in your head… you need to take action! So I knuckled down and got to organising, hoping one day, all that hard work would pay off. Everything came to a head when I had to take maternity leave early due to family reasons. I had to take a step back from the business and well… I am now in month 4 of maternity leave and everything is running smoothly. I jump in to pay bills and wages and I visit when I like, but aside from that my team run, grow & scale my business without me needing to be there! I know what DSOs need to get more time, be in control of their businesses and ultimately grow their student numbers. That is why I started coaching and that is why I created Studio Bloom. If you haven't heard already, I have created a comprehensive 12 week coaching program called Studio Bloom with a 5 step process to really grow your business and watch it flourish! Prepare: Avatars, Goal Setting, Product Ladders & Offers Plan: Pricing, Sales Messaging, Cashflow & Budgeting Nurture: Your Team & Systems Grow: Events, Traffic, Connections & Community Harvest: Automation & a Business Bloom Action Plan Stop being okay with being okay…. It's time to BLOOM! Without a strategic marketing and business plan, you can try a heap of different things and it might get you to your goals eventually, but if you want to take clear, actionable steps to grow (& save your sanity)...This program is for you! On completion of the course, you will walk away with a comprehensive Business Plan that will set you up for success for years to come! But you might ask, ‘how does a business plan lead to growth? Stay tuned for next episode!

According to new research, the number of people struggling with depression is up due to the pandemic. A study published in The Lancet Regional Health-Americas shows that the rise in rates due to COVID is worse than those associated with other large-scale traumatic events like severe weather or terrorist attacks. What do the experts recommend for people struggling with mental health concerns, specifically depression? Guest host Scott Fybush explores that question with our guests: Eric Caine, M.D. , former chair of the Department of Psychiatry at the University of Rochester Medical Center Melanie Funchess , mental health advocate, and member of the Greater Rochester Black Agenda Group and the Black Healers Network. Jerome Stiller, owner of Thrive Health and Wellness LLC , and In Our Own Voices presenter for the National Alliance on Mental Illness

Las Vegas Raiders football coach Jon Gruden resigned last week after the New York Times reported on emails he sent in which he made homophobic and misogynistic comments. This came after racist statements Gruden made about a union leader. Some of the emails were sent from his private account. Guest host Scott Fybush leads a conversation in which we discuss just how much employers have legal access to when it comes to workers' emails, whether from company accounts or private accounts. What about other work communication? And we explore the claims of Gruden's supporters, who say that these comments were made long enough ago not to matter anymore. Our guests: Justin Cordello, employment law attorney with Cordello Law PLLC Sharon Stiller , partner and director of the employment law practice at Abrams, Fensterman, Fensterman, Eisman, Formato, Ferrara, Wolf & Carone, LLP Chris Thompson , engineer, activist, and comedian

Deborah Weston, OD, of Weston Town Center Optometry in Florida, says that the practice she and her husband own gained patients and increased profitability by adding time to patient visits and implementing an easier way to connect with patients through MARLO, Alcon's digital contact lens ordering platform.

Are you ready to elevate the heck out of your mindset as it relates to sales?Have you ever had a little internal cringe when thinking about writing a sales post (or just when you think about making sales in general)?You are not alone!We have just closed out our biggest launch ever for the Content, Connections and Conversions Mastermind™ and it was amazing (I promise details are on their way!) and I received the most beautiful messages around how I've shown up in this launch and made sales.And I can tell you now that I never previously loved selling, and it is still a bit of an edge for me to sell and something that I am constantly working on (full transparency).So the reason why I attract people with our sales and why we've grown without doing all of the things is because my ENERGY around sales is good, and not so much about the strategy behind it.So I wanted to introduce to you my loves, the Sales Stacking Mindset Practice that I use to feel good and easeful in sales and energetically get behind making said sales. If you're ready to make more sales and sign more clients in a way that is good for you and your humans then this practice is really going to lift your energy and make this possible.You'll want to save this one to come back to, because I've recorded this so that you can come back, press play and use this to elevate your energy into sales being of the highest service to your people.Ready?Let's Dive In!LINKS:Website: https://www.elisedanielle.com/Instagram: @elise_danielle_Facebook Group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/purposedrivenbadasswomen
