In this episode, Dr. Stuart Slavin is joined by Dr. Daniel Saddawi‑Konefka, associate professor of anesthesia, and Dr. Matthew Tung, instructor in anesthesia, both at Harvard Medical School. They discuss their JAMA viewpoint, Meaning and Comfort in Physician Well‑Being: An Integrated Framework, and explore how two complementary dimensions of well‑being—meaning and comfort—can help physicians thrive throughout their careers. Drawing on concepts rooted in ancient Greek philosophy, Drs. Saddawi‑Konefka and Tung examine the relationship between eudaimonia (the sense of purpose and fulfillment that comes from service, growth, and connection) and hedonia (the well‑being associated with comfort, safety, and the reduction of unnecessary burdens). They discuss why these concepts are often framed as competing priorities in medicine and argue instead that both are essential components of sustainable physician well‑being. The conversation also explores practical applications within graduate medical education, including fostering intrinsic motivation, promoting autonomy, competence, and relatedness, and creating opportunities for learners to connect with the meaning inherent in patient care. Throughout the discussion, the speakers highlight how organizational efforts to reduce administrative burdens and improve working conditions can create the space needed for physicians to engage more deeply with purpose, connection, and professional fulfillment. Listeners will gain valuable insights into how an integrated approach to meaning and comfort can support well‑being for learners, educators, and practicing physicians alike.

Send us Fan MailHow can nonprofits build community support for after-school programs while creating measurable value for children, families, funders, and local leaders? JonPaul Reed, founder and executive director of Pure Momentum Group and founder of Athlete University, shares how the hours between 3:00 and 6:00 p.m. can become a powerful platform for youth development and stronger communities.The school day may end before parents finish working, but JonPaul sees that gap as much more than a supervision problem. It is an opportunity to build work ethic, decision-making, teamwork, leadership, communication skills, and what he calls “monetizable skill sets.”“We're either taking advantage of that window or we're not,” he explains.JonPaul also examines how youth sports have become increasingly driven by money, exclusivity, and winning. For nonprofit leaders, his warning is clear: programs must remain grounded in access, developmental outcomes, and the needs of young people—not simply the ambitions of adults.The conversation moves from program philosophy into the business of running and growing a youth-serving nonprofit. JonPaul discusses building parent buy-in, choosing the right time for difficult conversations, maintaining organizational paperwork, meeting with commissioners, submitting proposals, developing municipal relationships, and presenting a program in language decision-makers understand.His experience also shows why passion alone is not enough. Nonprofits need a defined model, consistent follow-up, credible documentation, accessible leadership, and a message that community partners can quickly understand. As JonPaul advises, “Package your product and package it well, and also get the right person to speak for you.”For nonprofit executives, program directors, board members, coaches, and community leaders, this episode offers a candid look at how mission, culture, communication, and operational discipline work together to create sustainable youth programs.Key Takeaways:* Treat the 3-to-6 p.m. period as a youth-development and workforce-readiness opportunity—not merely a childcare gap.* Build parent participation through timely, honest communication and shared accountability.* Define developmental outcomes before allowing competition, revenue, or adult expectations to shape the program.* Establish tax-exempt status, documentation, proposals, and operating records before approaching major partners.* Translate personal passion into a clear model that public officials, businesses, and funders can understand.* Delegate communications and introductions when another team member can position the organization more effectively.00:00:00 Why the 3-to-6 PM Window Matters00:02:31 Building Access Through Pure Momentum Group00:05:49 The Daily Gap Between School and Home00:07:28 Turning a Youth Development Gap Into a Gateway00:08:14 Preparing Young People for a Competitive World00:11:29 Reclaiming the Developmental Purpose of Sports00:16:14 Building Accountability With Parents and Children00:19:05 Creating Culture and Organizational Buy-In00:20:42 How Youth Programs Gain Community Support00:22:10 Packaging a Mission for Partners and Funders00:23:28 Documentation, Legitimacy, and Funding Readiness00:28:23 Leading Through Criticism, Risk, and Resilience#AfterSchoolPrograms #NonprofitLeadership #TheNonprofitShowFind us Live daily on YouTube!Find us  Live daily on LinkedIn!Find us Live daily on X: @Nonprofit_ShowOur national co-hosts and amazing guests discuss management, money and missions of nonprofits!  12:30pm ET   11:30am CT  10:30am MT  9:30am PTSend us your ideas for Show Guests or Topics: HelpDesk@AmericanNonprofitAcademy.comVisit us on the web:The Nonprofit Show

At a time when many campuses are navigating fatigue, uncertainty, and change, creating cultures rooted in care and connection has never been more important. In this episode, Heather Shea speaks with Dr. Patty Perillo and Earl Cabellon about the power of courageous leadership, centering justice, authentic belonging, and intentional culture-building to help staff (and the institutions in which they work) thrive.

Something feels off at work, and it’s not just you. We are experiencing unprecedented levels of cognitive demand in the modern workplace. People are exhausted, struggling to prioritize, struggling to focus, and struggling to make decisions. And yet we keep reaching for resilience training and wellness programs as the answer. In this episode, we get into what cognitive overload actually is and how to spot it. We talk about why individual solutions alone won’t fix a system problem, and what both individuals and leaders can actually do about it. We also get into how we got here: the addiction to constant connectivity, hybrid work blurring the boundaries between work and life, AI accelerating the rate of change, and workplaces that now reward responsiveness over effectiveness. And we close with an honest answer to a hard question: are we positive about where this is going?

Equity work in nonprofits requires more than diversifying leadership pipelines—it calls for organizations to examine how workplace culture, decision-making structures, hiring practices, and everyday interactions continue to reflect broader systems of inequity. Despite our current environment of backlash, these are issues that nonprofits need to continue to grapple with. This episode of the podcast Nonprofit Mission: Impact revisits conversations about equity, inclusion, and power in the nonprofit sector, exploring how broader societal systems show up inside nonprofit organizations. Through reflections from a variety of guests, Carol Hamilton and her guests: ·      Examine the emotional toll of assimilation and code-switching, ·      Explore the ways organizational culture often undermines equity efforts even when intentions are good. ·      Highlight practical pathways forward. These practical pathways include: ·      deep listening to communities, ·      rethinking hiring and leadership pipelines, ·      embedding equity into organizational strategy rather than treating it as separate work, and ·      cultivating cultures where people can show up more authentically. Throughout the episode, Carol Hamilton and her guests emphasize that change requires both systemic attention and everyday interpersonal choices that help people feel seen, heard, and valued.

Colin Milner, founder and CEO of the International Council on Active Aging, to discuss creating a true culture of active aging. Colin defines active aging as being actively engaged in life, grounded in a whole-person wellness model that goes beyond physical fitness to include mind, spirit, environment, purpose, and connection. We address persistent ageism in wellness and senior living, including “bubble-wrapping” older adults with overly cautious programming, and emphasize using research and education to change assumptions about capability and improvement even into late life. Colin describes what an age-friendly culture looks like—autonomy, agency, inclusion, empathy, and community access for all ages—and shares future-focused insights on personalization, precision, genetics, technology, and closing the 12.4-year gap between lifespan and healthspan, stressing that HI—human intelligence and interconnection—remains central.Links:https://www.icaa.cc/https://www.agentsofmovement.com/

The reality of today's organizations: tension runs high, trust feels fragile, and progress stalls under the weight of reactivity. Seasoned practitioners Kristina Katayama and Miriam Zachariah join us to explore relational methods for charting a path forward rooted in awareness, connection, and intentional change.  With decades of experience across education, leadership, and organizational transformation, Kristina and Miriam reveal what truly drives lasting change in complex systems. They tell stories of lived practice, showing how leaders and teams can break free from cycles of defensiveness, conflict avoidance, and burnout. Instead of focusing solely on what's broken, they introduce an "appreciative approach", a mindset shift that uncovers what's already working and expands it into sustainable transformation. They share why readiness, not hierarchy, drives meaningful engagement. Rather than relying on top-down mandates, this approach invites participation, builds shared ownership, and fosters cultures of belonging without "othering."  This episode brings systems thinking, nervous system awareness, and restorative practices into one integrated conversation. Through real-world stories, including a simple yet powerful moment of workplace courage, Kristina and Miriam demonstrate how individual agency fuels collective change.  Kristina Katayama is the founder and lead consultant of Be Possible. With over 25 years of experience, she supports discerning, legacy-minded leaders across public, nonprofit, and private organizations who are called to effect social change beyond their job description. Her work helps leaders and teams transform conflict into connection and operationalize values through nervous-system-wise, relational practices in everyday interactions. Kristina designs appreciative, action-learning processes that build relational accountability, strengthen agency at every level, and create scalable micro-practices for vibrant engagement, trust, and collaboration. Grounded in appreciative inquiry, adaptive leadership, and trauma-informed principles, her approach integrates organizational change, leadership practice, and healthy nervous-system dynamics.   Miriam Zachariah has been a public school educator for over 30 years and recently retired as an elementary school principal. She has continued her grandfather J.L. Moreno's work to facilitate human connection, manage conflict, and foster collaborative decision-making in communities. She is a recognized trainer in restorative practices and Peacemaking Circles. The focus of her work as an educator, consultant, and trainer has been on developing community in workplaces, intervening in conflict, and fostering educational practices that decolonize schools for those whose voices have been silenced.   Tune in to discover how small, intentional shifts, like observing internal reactions, speaking up with clarity, or amplifying moments of connection, can ripple outward to transform entire teams.  Connect with Be Possible on LinkedIn and Instagram, access their 5-minute quiz: "What's really driving tension on your team?" to get a snapshot of what may be underneath recurring friction, silence, stress, or stalled accountability on your team, and view video clips of clients describing their experience.

This week, we're revisiting a past episode of the podcast, The Regulated Team: Creating Cultures that Breathe. As recent episodes have explored sustainable authority and the shift away from urgency driven leadership, this conversation feels especially relevant. It expands those ideas beyond the individual, showing how regulation or dysregulation spreads across a team and shapes the culture as a whole.Through the Five Ives framework, this episode reminds us that thriving organizations don't just perform differently, they feel different. With a focus on co regulation, predictable rhythms, and simple rituals, it offers a practical look at creating environments that support steadiness, creativity, and long term sustainability.Sign up for the University of Pennsylvania Behavior Breakthrough Accredited CourseLearn about the Staff Sustainability System a proven system to reduce burnout at the rootOther related resources from Five Ives: Blog Post: Why Traditional Employee Wellness Programs Fail (And What Works Instead)Survive Mode: Recognizing When Your Organization is in CrisisWhat are the Five Ives?Podcast:Why Accountability Feels ThreateningHow Regulated Leaders Make Better Decisions in High-Stress SystemsLeading Through Conflict Without EscalationA Fresh Look at the Five Ives Framework in the WorkplaceBoundaries as Leadership InfrastructureClarity as a Safety CueWhen Leaders Become the StressorEpisode 2: Authority Without FearEpisode 1: What Stress Does to Decision MakingWhen Culture DysregulatesOnboarding as Co-RegulationThe Regulated Organization: What it Means to be a Regulated OrganizationOur Online Programs: Behavior BreakthroughPolicing Under PressureBoard Governance TrainingUniversity of Pennsylvania Behavior Breakthrough Accredited CourseSubscribe to our mailing list and find out more about Stress, Trauma, Behavior and the Brain!Check out our Facebook Group – Five Ives!Five Ives WebsiteThe Behavior Hub blogIf you're looking for support as you grow your organization's capacity for caring for staff and the community, we would love to be part of that journey. Schedule a free discovery call and let us be your guideAs an Amazon Associate, I earn from qualifying purchases.

Episode 292 features Scott Love interviewing culture-transformation author and speaker Greg Hawks about his book Act Like an Owner: Five Unlocks for Creating Culture People Love and Results Leaders Need. Hawks frames workplace behavior through a simple but sticky metaphor drawn from his years as a landlord: in every organization you have owners (people who take responsibility and treat the “house” like it's theirs), renters (people who do their jobs but don't emotionally invest), and vandals (people who actively damage culture through blame, excuses, and disregard). A key point is that “acting like an owner” isn't reserved for people with equity—anyone can adopt an owner mindset, and leaders of even small teams can influence culture by clarifying what commitment looks like, building trust, and refusing to tolerate “vandal” behavior that demoralizes everyone else. Hawks also emphasizes that culture improvement is often less about elaborate programs and more about consistent, practical behaviors that create momentum. He highlights the value of clear standards and accountability (commitment measured by responsibility rather than hours), and “activating lasting value” through simple, specific encouragement that accelerates trust (“people like people who like them”). He argues the real leverage move isn't obsessing over disengaged “renters” but addressing actively disengaged “vandals,” because removing toxic behavior makes it safe for others to re-invest. The conversation closes with actionable guidance: think beyond your own “room” and care about the whole “house,” notice and affirm positive behaviors in others regularly, and ask yourself in every situation whether you're owning outcomes or defaulting to blame.

When the World Moves Too Fast: Honoring Neurodiverse Nervous Systems with Pasha Marlowe This week on Look for the Good, I'm joined by Pasha Marlowe, author, global neurodiversity speaker, coach, and consultant. Together, we explore what neurodiversity truly means and why so many of the norms we've been living by are beginning to unravel. Drawing from her book Creating Cultures of Inclusion, Pasha explains how our nervous systems were never designed to operate at the relentless pace of modern life — and how that mismatch affects all of us. We talk about the growing awareness that it may not be individuals who are broken, but systems and expectations that no longer fit the way humans are wired. In this rich and eye-opening conversation, Pasha shares her five pillars for creating cultures of inclusion and offers part of the solution: learning to become more aware of our own needs, honoring our unique nervous systems, and giving ourselves permission to slow down. We explore how practices like music can quite literally soothe the mortal soul, helping us regulate, reconnect, and return to our inner wisdom. We also talk about what it truly means to unplug — not just from devices, but from outdated expectations — so you can receive a genuine “download” from within. In a world that often feels like it's moving at Jetsons speed, this episode is a powerful invitation to listen to yourself, honor your rhythms, and rewrite the story of what it means to thrive. BIO:  Pasha Marlowe is a global neurodiversity speaker, coach, and consultant. Her book "creating Cultures of Inclusion" is an actionable framework for anyone who wants to lead neuroinclusively and create space for all minds and bodies to thrive.

In this episode, we're tackling a topic that's both incredibly important and eye-opening—understanding and supporting neurodivergent needs in the workplace. Sounds like a heavy topic?  Well, it's actually one that's filled with tons of practical, real-world tips that could make a huge difference in your work environment.  From sensory needs to access and support, we're breaking it all down in a way that's easy to digest and—dare we say—kind of fun. If you've ever wondered how to make your workplace more inclusive (or just want to know what “neurodivergent” even means), this episode is for you. Pasha Marlowe (she/they), is a trained marriage and family therapist, coach, speaker, and author. She wrote the best selling book "Creating Cultures of Neuroinclusion" and is recognized in Forbes as a neurodiversity expert. She enjoys presenting keynotes and workshops on neurodiversity-affirming practices and policies to organizations around the globe. Pasha proudly identifies as multiply-neurodivergent, disabled, and queer. Some of the things you'll hear are: 1.) Why we need to get away from talking in terms of functioning labels (ADHD, bipolar disorder, disabled, autism) and instead focus on unique needs 2.) How to focus specifically on three categories of needs: sensory, support, and access 3.) The practical things you can do and ask to be more inclusive of neurodivergent people 4.) How Pasha "Bucks That!" when she gives presentation, and how that can empower you 5.)

I've been following the norms,' but I don't think they're really me." "It's a bit tricky when you have a team with diverse needs, but I find that creating a psychologically safe space goes a long way. It's important to foster an environment where it's okay to ask for or claim a need and request accommodations.” “ I'm a much happier person if I can do the things that I love and less of the things that just hurt.”  ”If you identify as neurodivergent, by definition, you're rejecting the label disorder because you're saying that there are differences. There are not disorders. There are differences and not deficiencies.”
