Podcasts about creating change

Sunday is the fifth installment in our sermon series called "By Their Fruits You Will Know Them: 8 Core Characteristics of Authentic Followers of Jesus." This week we'll dig into what Jesus taught about the power of faith, exploring questions like: What is faith? How does it work? And is it really true that if I just have enough faith, anything can happen?

Send us a textIf you're someone who's capable, driven, and doing “all the right things,” yet still feels stuck, exhausted, or like you're constantly starting over, this episode is for you.In this conversation, I'm joined by Alicia Meek, an intuitive tarot and NLP practitioner who supports women in creating sustainable, grounded change without hustle, force, or toxic motivation.We explore why willpower and motivation often fail, how chronic overwhelm disconnects us from self-trust, and what it actually takes to create clarity and momentum that lasts. This episode is a powerful reminder that lasting change doesn't come from fixing yourself, it comes from learning how to listen, regulate, and lead yourself forward with intention.In this episode, we talk about:Why “push through it” mindset keeps women stuckThe difference between forcing change and embodied, sustainable growthHow to rebuild self-trust when you feel disconnected or overwhelmedWhy clarity, not motivation, is the key to lasting transformationCreating a life that feels intentional instead of reactiveIf you're craving steadiness, clarity, and a more aligned way of moving forward, this conversation will meet you exactly where you are. Connect w/ Alicia:WebsiteInstagramWild Rituals for Mornings That Change Your LifeMorning Habits Free Resource Subscribe to the Aligned to Rise Podcast: Apple | SpotifyConnect w/ Alyssa: Instagram Website Work w/ Alyssa: Free Period Pain Playbook Aligned Period Reset Work with me 1:1 Learn more about AlyssaDisclaimer: This podcast is for educational purposes only.

What does it really take to change reading outcomes at scale?In this episode of Literacy Talks, Donell Pons, Stacy Hurst, and Lindsay Kemeny kick off a new conversation focused on changemakers in literacy. Together, they unpack commonly cited literacy data—especially NAEP scores—and explore what those numbers do (and don't) tell us about reading achievement in the U.S.The discussion moves beyond test scores to examine systems change: leadership, shared language, collaboration across classrooms and institutions, and the growing role of innovation and technology. From teacher leaders and researchers to curriculum developers and parent advocates, this episode highlights the many roles changemakers play in moving literacy work forward—and why lasting change requires collective impact, not quick fixes.Literacy Talks Episode 110 Show NotesTopics CoveredWhat NAEP data does (and does not) tell us about reading proficiencyWhy systemic change is harder—and more important—than isolated successMississippi's literacy efforts and what we can learn from themAI and technology as tools, supports, and potential risks in literacy instructionThe importance of shared language, collaboration, and leadershipTeachers, parents, researchers, and curriculum providers as change makersScaling impact through conferences, professional communities, and partnershipsResources & References MentionedBooksFrontiers in Social InnovationThe Journey of Collective Impact (John Kania, Mark Kramer, & colleagues)Assessments & DataNational Assessment of Educational Progress (NAEP)Organizations & InitiativesProject Read AIThe Reading LeagueCenter for Literacy & Learning – Plain Talk ConferenceBig Sky Literacy SummitTransformative Reading Teacher GroupResearch & Thought LeadershipReid Lyon's work on literacy, systems change, and shared languageLiteracy Instruction & ResearchReading Horizons

Send us a textIn this episode, George Kesselaar joins Marco Blankenburgh for a powerful conversation that redefines how we think about change.George brings insight from his PhD research at the University of Cape Town's Graduate School of Business, where he explores the behavioral side of change in global organizations. What makes his work stand out is its intentional design through the lens of Intercultural Agility. Instead of treating change as something that is rolled out, George shows how it can be co-created with people across cultures.Together, Marco and George explore questions like:·       What causes change efforts to stall, even when the strategy is clear?·       How can we move from rollout to resonance?·       What does it take to create culture rather than dictate it?This conversation offers practical insight into frameworks such as the Three Colors of Worldview, the 12 Dimensions of Culture, and the idea of building a Third Cultural Space. But more than that, it invites us to reflect on how leaders show up in times of change, how they listen, and how they align with people before inviting into a journey of change.If you are working on (digital/technology) transformation, navigating resistance, or designing culture in a global environment, this episode will offer you a new way to see and lead change that lasts.  -- Looking for a book to take your cultural agility to the next step, check out the Ultimate Intercultural Question Book brought to you by KnowledgeWorkx.com

Sometimes we arrive at a decision we fully own - and still find ourselves unsure of whether to take the big step that makes the change happen.In this episode, I explore the tipping point from preparation into activation - and the kind of care these sliding door moments ask of us.We explore:What it means when the change is ours - not driven by external circumstancesThe inner scale of decisions - how something can feel enormous inside us, even if it looks “small” from the outsideHow to stay with uncertainty with compassion - without minimising what matters to usThe brain's pull toward the status quo - and how stress, tiredness, and overload affect decision-makingA simple journaling practice for seeing the real impact of a decision - including our hopes, fears, and the unknownIf you're standing on a threshold right now, settle in - and see what this takes you.With love.Currently… my work is centred around:Creating Change with Compassion — a small group, 4-week course using group discussion, insight and Flow Journaling - explore it here https://www.eventbrite.co.uk/e/creating-change-with-compassion-tickets-1374142018769?aff=oddtdtcreatorFor thoughtful connection, including live gatherings and courses, softly shared through my mailing list - join to hear more https://hennyflynn.kit.com/profileYou can find everything I offer here: https://www.hennyflynn.co.uk/ ★ Support this podcast ★

Start Your Transformation Now In this profound and far-reaching conversation, Jim Fortin sits down with Gary Zukav, author of The Seat of the Soul, to explore what he calls an unprecedented shift in human consciousness. Gary explains that humanity is moving beyond a five-sensory, fear-based way of living into a multisensory awareness rooted in love, responsibility, and authentic power. This transformation, he says, is not a future possibility—it is happening now, within each individual. The discussion dives deeply into what authentic power truly means: the alignment of personality with soul. Gary contrasts external power—control, manipulation, and fear—with authentic power, which comes from emotional awareness and conscious choice. He offers practical guidance on how to recognize frightened versus loving parts of the personality and how everyday emotional experiences are actually gateways to spiritual growth and personal evolution. If you've ever wondered how inner change can affect the world, how to move beyond fear, or how to live with greater meaning and integrity during uncertain times, this episode offers both clarity and direction. What You'll Discover in This Episode:  (02:58) The New Human Consciousness Why humanity is undergoing a rapid, historic shift from five-sensory awareness to multisensory perception.  (04:20) External Power vs. Authentic Power How control and manipulation differ from soul-aligned power—and why the old model no longer works.  (13:57) Love and Fear as Choice Points How every moment presents a decision between fear-based reactions and love-based responses.  (18:59) Emotional Awareness as a Tool How physical sensations in the body reveal frightened or loving parts of your personality.  (41:59) Temptation and Conscious Choice Why temptation is a spiritual gift and how it serves as a rehearsal for growth—or karma.  (51:30) Creating Change from the Inside Out Why transforming yourself is the only way meaningful change happens in the world.  Listen, apply, and enjoy! Transformational Takeaway  True transformation doesn't come from fixing the world outside of you—it begins by turning inward. As Gary Zukav reminds us, the frightened parts of your personality are not obstacles, but doorways to deeper awareness, compassion, and authentic power. When you learn to recognize fear, choose love, and act from alignment with your soul, you step into a life guided not by reaction, but by conscious creation.  Let's Connect:  Instagram | Facebook | YouTube | LinkedIn  LIKED THE EPISODE?  If you're the kind of person who likes to help others, then share this with your friends and family.

We explore why change sticks when the body, mind, schedule, and space align, and why willpower alone fails. We show how decluttering, time edits, blood sugar balance, and calmer inputs teach the nervous system that new is safe, setting the stage for part two's troubleshooting.• reframing problems as goal prompts and trackers• how stress narrows perception and confirms old beliefs• decluttering home and car as physical proof of space• editing schedules to restore bandwidth and boredom• morning and evening rituals that calm the lens• blood sugar, sleep, light, and cortisol as levers• nature, movement, sweating, and drainage for flow• breaking all-or-nothing thinking and perfection loops• protecting inputs: media, relationships, and self-talk• using journaling and gratitude to release rumination• aligning money, time, and attention with stated goals• preview of part two: self-sabotage and emotional driversTo get notified as soon as groups open at the beginning of the year - sign up here:https://stacy-baker.mykajabi.com/opt-in-9cffc5f4-f006-4adb-a0a7-6c33a0698b4bResources mentioned:Mycircadian APP DOCTOR (code)Ra Optics (Code DRSTACYND) blue light blockers!Bon Charge (Code DRSTACY) red light panel and circadian bulbsHigher Dose (my FAV sauna blanket with low to no EMF) code DRSTACYCGM (Code DRSTACY and DRSTACYAPP for app only)Analemma Water (structuring)Spring Aqua (my FAV water system) To work one-on-one with me, you can apply HERE!For more from me, follow me on IG @dr.stacy.ndThis information is just that; information only - not to be taken as medical advice.

What happens when you're addicted to violence itself? John Graham shipped out on a freighter at 16, made the first ascent of Denali's North Wall at 20 (never repeated), and faced death dozens times—loving every minute. By 28, nothing mattered except his next dangerous adventure. Then came Vietnam. Setting up a firing squad during the 1971 Easter Offensive in Hue, ordering deaths of teenagers, John broke down weeping. Through encounter groups, he discovered the compassionate man beneath his "John Wayne image." At the UN, he used those warrior qualities for good—risking his career to help end apartheid. For 40 years with the Giraffe Heroes Project, he's inspired courage worldwide.

This week Ivy Slater, host of Her Success Story, chats with her guest,Tara Chalakani. The two talk about the evolution and impact of Preferred Behavioral Health Group, the importance of authentic relationships in nonprofit leadership, and the powerful role of self-care and trauma-informed culture in supporting employees and clients. In this episode, we discuss: How a small local operation launched in 1978 turned into a $39 million organization with 500 team members—by chasing the right grants and growing programs that truly matter to the community. What sets Preferred apart is its culture—rooted in excellence, integrity, and compassion. You can see it in the way staff stick around and in the industry awards they've picked up, like being named one of New Jersey's "Best Places to Work. When conversations about women's leadership, self-care, and trauma-informed workplaces come up, both Tara Chalakani and Ivy Slater share what it really means to lead by example—and why you have to pour from a full cup to do it well. Why nonprofit leadership in mental health matters now more than ever—because the pandemic pushed mental health to the forefront, breaking down stigma and sparking a national conversation about the care people really need. How Tara Chalakani shifts the idea of nonprofits as competitors and instead focuses on working together, showing how collaboration can better serve the shared mission of improving mental health. Dr. Tara Chalakani is a national mental health expert and dynamic leader. As the CEO of Preferred Behavioral Health Group, Dr. Chalakani leads a team of 500 employees providing quality mental health care, substance use treatment, and prevention services to almost 30,000 individuals a year, across New Jersey. In addition, Dr. Chalakani maintains a private psychotherapy practice and is currently an appointed Associate Professor at the Hackensack University School of Medicine, Dept. of Psychiatry and Behavioral Health. She has also taught Psychology and Mental Health Counseling curricula at the undergraduate and graduate level. Dr. Chalakani holds a doctoral degree in psychology with a concentration in behavioral health leadership, a master's degree in mental health counseling, and undergraduate degrees in nursing and psychology. All of her advanced degrees were earned while raising her children and working full-time. Dr. Chalakani is a frequent guest on national and local media outlets, public speaker, and co-host of the Welloff Podcast through iHeart Media. Dr. Chalakani is a regular contributor to Forbes, and the inaugural leader of the Forbes Nonprofit Council Women Executives group.

So remember that a mixed drink or full glass of wine are probably more than one drink.Abstinence from alcoholAbstinence from alcohol is the best choice for people who take medication(s) that interact with alcohol, have health conditions that could be exacerbated by alcohol (e.g. liver disease), are pregnant or may become pregnant or have had a problem with alcohol or another substance in the past.Benefits of “low-risk” drinkingFollowing these guidelines reduces the risk of health problems such as cancer, liver disease, reduced immunity, ulcers, sleep problems, complications of existing conditions, and more. It also reduces the risk of depression, social problems, and difficulties at school or work. ★ Support this podcast ★

The key to unlearning lies in community, and we must embrace unlearning as a collective practice in order to fight for collective liberation. Listen as Aaron and Damien discuss the book Radical Unlearning: The Art and Science of Creating Change from Within by Lewis Raven Wallace (and published by Beacon Press), which explores and analyzes the concepts of radical unlearning and neuropsychology, as well as many of the possible pathways to free ourselves of dangerous and supremacist ways of thinking and being as individuals and collectively, and what we learn and take away from this incredible book in our continued learning and unlearning work and fight for collective liberation.

John Graham shipped out on a freighter when he was 16, hitchhiked through the Algerian Revolution at 19 and was on the team that made the first ascent of Denali's North Wall at 20, a climb so dangerous it's never been repeated. He hitchhiked around the world at 22, working as a correspondent in every war he came across. A US Foreign Service Officer for 15 years, he was in the middle of the 1969 revolution in Libya and the war in Vietnam. To the young Graham, adventure was everything, and each brush with death only pushed him to up the ante—and to bury ever deeper the emotional life needed to make him whole.Then it began to change, prompted by agonizing reflections at the height of a battle in Vietnam. At the United Nations he risked his career, crossing his own government to support initiatives for peace and justice in Asia, Africa and Cuba. His secret efforts against the UN infuriated racists in the US Congress by engineering a UN plan that helped end apartheid in South Africa. Then came the all-or-nothing bet he was forced to make, fighting for his life in a lifeboat in the middle of a typhoon when his ship caught fire and sank in the Gulf of Alaska. As a global peace builder, post Foreign Service, he negotiated with the Khmer Rouge for a cease-fire in Cambodia and helped avert a major strike in Canada, save what's left of the Everglades and find long-term environmental solutions in the Pacific Northwest. For years he contributed to peace efforts in Israel/Palestine (efforts that got him put on George Bush's No Fly List as a threat to national security.) For the last 40 years he's been a leader of the Giraffe Heroes Project, a global movement inspiring people to stick their necks out to solve public problems and giving them tools to succeed (giraffe.org). His speeches, blogs, podcasts and interviews have a global audience. His books include Outdoor Leadership; Stick Your Neck Out–A Street-smart Guide to Creating Change in Your Community and Beyond; a memoir, QUEST: Risk, Adventure, and the Search for Meaning; and Denali Diary, a first-person account of one of the most daring first ascents in North American mountaineering. He has degrees from Harvard and Stanford, neither of which he will ever use.Contact John Graham:www.john graham.orgMy memoir, which is Quest – Risk, Adventure, and Search for Meaning.LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/johnagraham1/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/JohnAGraham344/Dr. Kimberley LinertSpeaker, Author, Broadcaster, Mentor, Trainer, Behavioral OptometristEvent Planners- I am available to speak at your event.

We're counting down the days to Jubilee L.A., our big conference taking place Sunday, Sept. 28th. In the spirit of what's to come, we're revisiting one of the most powerful conversations from this year's Jubilee in New York City: “Meet the Moment: The Power of Food and Storytelling in Creating Change.”Moderated by writer and cookbook author Klancy Miller of “For the Culture,” this inspiring panel brings together an incredible group of changemakers: Paola Velez, founder of Bakers Against Racism; pastry chef and queen of the charity bake sale Natasha Pickowicz; recipe developer and author of “Third Culture Cooking” Zaynab Issa; and Emmy Award–winning documentary producer Deb Freeman of “Finding Edna Lewis.” They're introduced by chef Lana Lagomarsini, a “Top Chef” semifinalist known for her beloved Juneteenth cookouts in New York City.Together, these women reflect on how food and storytelling can move culture, spark change, and bring communities together—something we all need more of right now.Thank you to Square, Ketel One, and The Sports Bra for their support.

The events of this past week -- in our world, nation, and personal lives -- have reminded us of the destructive power of hate. As followers of Jesus, how should we respond? What Jesus asks us to do is really, really, really hard. He challenges us to overcome hate with love. Ok, but how are we supposed to do that? What does that look like? Those are the questions we'll grapple with this Sunday.

Shruti Sonthalia says purpose is her superpower. A strong sense of purpose helped Shruti to demolish seemingly insurmountable barriers to becoming a Master Certified Coach and a globally renowned industry figure, and in this episode of The Coach's Journey Podcast, she implores all coaches to find their ‘why'.Shruti began her journey without coaches around her to learn from, living and working in a culture that assumed expertise was the preserve of men with white hair. Believing it was her purpose to create sacred spaces in the workplace, Shruti grafted with steadfast resolve to defy the gatekeepers and doubters who stood in her way.By taking the path less travelled and proving herself time and again, Shruti developed a work ethic that took her to the top of her profession, empowering leaders across global markets to embody a coaching mindset.She pays forward her expertise in the training curricula she devises and delivers to the next generation of coaches, founding her structured, evidence-based approach on the values and principles she speaks about in this episode.In this conversation, Shruti invites us all to ask: which parts of our journeys do we struggle to own? And how might addressing them enable changes within us that ripple out to the ecosystems we operate within?Shruti and host Neil Mackinnon also talk about:- Whether coaching has the same effectiveness in different areas, geographies, and realities- Accessibility of supervision as a vital aspect of coaching's growth and integrity- The learning we can take from our own procrastination- How a coaching mindset can help us embody shared power- The principle that says that which you focus on expands, and how to harness itTHINGS WE TALKED ABOUT THAT YOU MIGHT BE INTERESTED IN:- AoEC - Academy of Executive Coaching https://www.aoec.com/ - ICF - International Coaching Federation https://coachingfederation.org/ - ICF Foundation https://foundationoficf.org/ - Shruti's paper on effectiveness of coaching in emerging markets https://radar.brookes.ac.uk/radar/file/08d2850c-51fe-42ab-aeea-e7ec829bc5a9/1/IJEBCM%2022_1_10.pdf - London School of Economics https://www.lse.ac.uk/ - Yannick Jacob on The Coach's Journey Podcast https://www.thecoachsjourney.com/podcast/97-yannick-jacob-going-beyond-blueprints-to-challenge-the-status-quo-of-coaching - Richard Layard https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Richard_Layard,_Baron_Layard - Viktor Frankl, Man's Search for Meaning https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/4069.Man_s_Search_for_Meaning - Martin Seligman https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Martin_Seligman - David Foster Wallace, This Is Water https://fs.blog/david-foster-wallace-this-is-water/ - Theory U by Otto Sharma https://www.amazon.co.uk/Theory-Learning-Emerges-Futures-Business/dp/1576757633 - Robbie Swale's writing on resistance https://www.robbieswale.com/the-12-minute-blog/2025/3/28/the-more-resistance-we-feel-towards-a-call-or-action-the-more-important-that-call-or-action-is-to-our-souls-evolution - The War of Art by Steven Pressfield https://www.amazon.co.uk/War-Art-Through-Creative-Battles/dp/1936891026 - IFS, parts work, what's in the way is the way https://matthewharwood.uk/ifs/ - RUHCO https://ruhco.org/

Welcome back to another After Dark episode here on the Iron Sights Podcast. Today I'm joined by Scott Savage, founder of the Savage Training Group. Scott's a law enforcement veteran who believes today's officers deserve more than just “check-the-box” training hours. We sat down at the 2025 California Force Instructor Association Conference in Napa, CA, after I had the chance to watch him present to a room full of law enforcement instructors, and what struck me most wasn't just the information he shared—but how he delivered it. In this conversation, we dig into why traditional training methods often fail under stress, how to move beyond siloed training and integrate across the board, and the importance of communication and decision-making during critical incidents. We also talk about the work Savage Training Group is doing to elevate the profession and give officers the tools they truly need to succeed in the real world.  Sit back and enjoy my conversation with Scott Savage of the Savage Training Group.Timestamps:00:00 Intro08:25 Scott Savage's Background09:22 The Reality Of Police Training10:46 Launching Savage Training Group23:31 Understanding De-Escalation30:26 Effective Training Strategies41:08 Creating Change & Overcoming Resistance53:21 Realistic Training Scenarios1:03:26 Professionalism & Communication1:10:36 Articulating Force Decisions1:20:15 Clear Commands Under Pressure1:33:18 Savage Training Group's ApproachRed Dot Fitness Training Programs:rdfprograms.comOnline Membership (Full Access To All Programs & Virtual Coaching):https://www.reddotfitness.net/online-membershipVirtual Coaching:https://www.reddotfitness.net/virtual-coachingSelf-Guided Programs:https://www.reddotfitness.net/Self-Guided-Programs1Connect With Us:Website - https://ironsightspodcast.com/Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/ironsightspodcast/Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/

Send us a textWhat happens when a tiny heart warrior inspires a movement of love and advocacy? In this powerful conversation, I sit down with Haley Graham, whose daughter Emberly Dawn was born with multiple heart defects, including a rare Taussig-Bing anomaly. Haley takes us through the emotional journey from that first concerning ultrasound to the founding of Embers of Love, a nonprofit that's changing lives across Manitoba.Haley shares the raw truth of those early days—the quiet car ride home after receiving concerning news at her 41-week ultrasound, being flown from Winnipeg to Edmonton for emergency treatment just days after Emberly's birth, and the month spent in a hotel across from the children's hospital. Her story captures both the inherent isolation of receiving a CHD diagnosis and the profound community support that emerged to sustain them.The name "Embers of Love" came from a touching observation made during Emberly's hospital stay—that this tiny baby somehow "spreads embers of love to everyone she meets." What began with handmade keychains and candles has blossomed into a significant advocacy organization that's participated in over 35 initiatives since 2023. From donating sound machines to the NICU to organizing craft kits for Heart Camp campers, Haley shows how personal experience can transform into meaningful community action.Most moving is Haley's reflection on how Amberlee has become "the flame to our family fire," completely shifting their perspective on what matters in life. Her story reminds us that even in our most vulnerable moments, we can find purpose, create lasting change, and spread those precious embers of love to others walking similar paths.Ready to get involved in supporting the CHD community?

The conversation covered Aaron's personal journey of awakening, including traumatic childhood experiences and transformative moments such as a Kundalini awakening. Aaron emphasized the role of emotional literacy and self-awareness in healing, particularly for men, and described the impactful work he is doing in Australia to support men's mental health. They also delved into the significance of practices like Yin Yoga, meditation, and Kundalini Yoga in addressing trauma and improving overall well-being.

The discussion underscores the potential for individual healing to create a ripple effect, leading to positive change in society. About Aaron: Aaron Schultz is a strong advocate for a preventative approach to men's health. Having overcome his own period of huge self-doubt, crippling anxiety and poor lifestyle behaviours caused by overwork and burnout, Aaron managed to turn his weakness into his strength, becoming a teacher of meditation, yoga and anxiety management education. Aaron now has over 7,000 practical teaching hours, and is the driving force behind establishing The Outback Mind Foundation in regional Queensland, and now it's expansion throughout regional Australia.
