Podcast appearances and mentions of Deborah Thomas

Welcome back to a new series of These Three Things, the podcast which asks which person, place and treasured possession have made a profound impact on someone's life and why. In this episode Deborah Thomas is joined by Scott Thompson. You'll probably know him best as the project manager from Alan and Amanda's Italian and Spanish Job. For the past 17 years Scott has called Sicily home where he has carved out a career for restoring properties across the island.

This bonus content is a reading from Platypus, the CASTAC Blog. The full post by Jessica L. Olivares can be read at https://blog.castac.org/2024/07/to-witness-cell-phone-cameras-immigrant-communities-and-police-accountability/. About the post: What follows is a reflection on my fieldwork in Houston, Texas, during 2018 and 2019, focusing on how anti-surveillance advocates at the American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU) of Texas used cell phones and their cameras as resistance tools. I focus on promoting cell phone camera usage in ACLU's "Know Your Rights" workshops and through the ACLU Blue and ACLU La Migra mobile applications. Throughout the piece, I reckon with what Deborah Thomas calls “the often difficult-to-parse relationships between surveillance and witnessing” (2000: 717). Witnessing the precarity of past ethnographic junctures can highlight injustices, bring them to attention, and formulate strategies for their alleviation. Thus, bearing witness to the past moments may help gain agency over unpredictable futures.

In this episode of These Three Things, Deborah Thomas talks to Fritz Lensch, a spiritual teacher and founder of LIVE LIGHT, as he explores the three elements that deeply influence his philosophy and life's work. First, Fritz shares the joy he felt on hearing about the birth of his newborn niece, Karla in March. Reflecting on the absolute innocence and potential of new life, he attributes this part of the show all to her. Next, he describes a transformative experience at a stupa in the heart of Kathmandu, Nepal, a place that deeply resonated with his spiritual journey. Finally, Fritz discusses a cherished painting that captures him looking out over his hometown outside Berlin, a constant reminder of his freedom.  Join Deborah and Fritz as they delve into these personal symbols of love, spirituality, and identity.

Hello and welcome to These Three Things. The podcast that asks which person, place and treasured possession have made a profound impact upon your life and why. I'm your host, Deborah Thomas and for over 20 years, I have been working as a speaking coach, helping people feel more seen, more heard and better remembered. Public speaking becomes so much easier to accomplish when we are deeply connected to our subject matter. When we talk about the things that we love, our voice and our body come alive, without pretense & without efforts. What these conversations have shown me is that a story from a stranger can shape and change our own lives within minutes, that we are more alike than we are different. And that's who and what we hold most dear, reveals to the world who we truly are.

In this episode I had the pleasure to sit down with the Amazing Human Deborah, to talk about her journey with mental health. Deborah discusses her journey following a number of life events leading up to her mental health challenges in 2017. We discussed Depression, Suicidal thoughts, finding love and her passion for Competing in Pageantries. As part of her pageantry role as Mrs Stockport Atlantic, Deborah is focused on helping to support local community activities.

It's been a second day of major disruption at the Dartford Crossing as Just Stop Oil protesters are still on top of the QEII Bridge. Two men have been up there since yesterday morning, and overnight, slept in hammocks dangling from the cables. We've been hearing from the activists, and also spoke to a logistics company about how the closure of the crossing is impacting their business. Also in today's podcast, an Ashford man who carried out a campaign of abusive and controlling behaviour against his ex-girlfriend has been jailed. But, the victim says she fears intimate footage of her that he'd secretly recorded could re-emerge and is calling for tougher sentences for such a crime. People living in a retirement village in Snodland say they're living in fear after it was targeted by a group of youngsters.  Residents of Rectory Close say the group have been pushing over fences and climbing on the roof - we've been chatting to someone who lives there. How often do use the self-check outs when you do the shopping? An Aldi in Dover is going to lose some of its manned tills, as the budget chain introduces a self-service option. Our reporter Liane Castle has been speaking to regulars who say they're worried their shopping experience. Thousands of 10-year-olds will be finding out today what secondary school they can apply to go to next year. The results of the Kent Test determine which ones will be eligible for a grammar. But some campaigners say the system should be scrapped because it's out of date - hear the thoughts of Joanne Bartley from campaign group Comprehensive Future. Companies across Kent are being urged to make sure they're talking about the menopause and supporting women going through it. Today is all about raising awareness and highlighting some of the symptoms. Deborah Thomas is a wellbeing manager at Southeastern and told Nicola Everett that she started to go through it at 36. Elsewhere, one of the most deprived schools in Kent has been recognised by Microsoft for the way it's using technology to help teach children. Richmond Academy in Sheerness is one of just a few hundred around the world singled out by the tech giant. Our reporter Megan Carr has been along to the school to find out more. And, it's understood part of a “big budget” movie is being filmed at a Kent Tourist attraction A giant lighting ring has been craned into position at the Historic Dockyard in Chatham. The same crews are thought to be behind the closure of the Kingsferry Bridge on Sheppey at the end of the month.  

Being your best productive self starts with getting organized, which is this week's topic. On this episode of The DEB Show, host Debra Eckerling speaks with Molly Beran, Projects By Molly, LLC; Deborah Thomas-Nininger, DTN Productions International; and Stacey Soleil, Follow Up Boss. Molly, Deborah, and Stacey share why they love being organized … and how they do it, as well as why people find being organized a challenge, organization tips, and much more.

Symptoms of the perimenopause and menopause can impact a person's physical health and wellbeing in a variety of different ways. Whilst HRT can offer relief for many symptoms, alleviating physical discomfort can prove more complex. The role of the physiotherapist in the ongoing care and treatment of those experiencing pain during the perimenopause and menopause can prove essential. Joining host Lauren Redfern on the podcast to discuss the role of the physiotherapist in the treatment of perimenopause and menopause is Deborah Thomas. Deborah is a qualified physiotherapist with a special interest in pelvic health. In this episode, Deborah discusses the role of the physiotherapist in empowering patients to adopt a healthy lifestyle and the importance of encouraging patients to exercise whatever their limitations may be. She breaks down the importance of good education and explores the variety of physiological symptoms that can surface during the perimenopause and menopause, paying particular attention to pelvic, bone and heart health. As well as being a certified pilates instructor and mindfulness practitioner, Deborah has extensive experience working across a variety of different physiotherapy departments including musculoskeletal, obstetrics and gynaecology, orthopaedic, neurology and respiratory specialities.

How can ethnographers use multimedia presentations of their work to reach new audiences, build different relationships with their participants, and promote new practices of witnessing and representation? On today’s episode we talk with Dr. Deborah Thomas, Professor of Anthropology at the University of Pennsylvania. She tells us about her collaborative and multimodal project, Tivoli Stories (tivolistories.com), based on the 2010 police and military incursion into a West Kingston community in search of a notorious drug trafficker and community don that left at least 75 dead.  The project includes a documentary film titled Four Days in May, a museum exhibit, and the 2019 book Political Life in the Wake of the Plantation: Entanglement, Witnessing, Repair (Duke UP, 2019). Deborah explains how a background in dance led her to become an accidental anthropologist with an interest in both sovereignty and experimental ethnographic practices. She then discusses the Tivoli Stories project, describing how collaborative attempts to gather testimonies of the incursion led to first a documentary and then her book. She takes us behind the curtains for some of the simultaneously aesthetic and political choices of the film and book, including the use of portraits to humanize participants as distinct from the common images of suffering that may be termed ghetto porn. Her reflections offer a concrete and insightful look at an alternative means of ethnographic practice attuned to the lives, experiences, and politics of the communities we study. Alex Diamond is a Ph.D. candidate in sociology at the University of Texas, Austin. Sneha Annavarapu is a postdoctoral researcher at the University of Chicago. Dr. Sneha Annavarapu is a postdoctoral researcher at the University of Chicago.

She graduated from Jack Yates High School with honors and proceeded to graduate from University of Houston. With far too many professional designations to mention, she has much wisdom to dispense.

From the 1980s to the 2000s, before the Internet arrived, magazines were tops.  Cosmopolitan, Cleo, Dolly, Harper's Bazaar... there were so many.  They were filled with information on how to be a girl, or a woman, alongside glossy shots of models like Elle Macpherson, Sonia Klein and Claudia Schiffer. But sadly, all these magazines and the brands behind them are now gone. Deborah Thomas and Paula Joye have, between them, worked at, launched or edited pretty much every major magazine in Australia.

Last year, a new conference was introduced to L&D, and it was nothing like any other industry event. It's called Step Away, a learning experience focused on creativity, play, and game design. And in this episode, we had the creators of the event, Kevin Thorn, Karl Kapp, and Deborah Thomas, join us to talk about Step Away, why they built it, what it's about, and the plans for this year. To me, it sounds fascinating. A learning event that focuses on creativity, play, and game design - AND business solutions. They're going virtual this year and given the expertise of the hosts, this may be a "game changing" event. Check them out at www.stepaway.design and give this episode a listen. This may be the perfect learning event for you.

Analyze need, identify objectives, curate content and then what? Design and develop the course? No! Try thinking about the design through the lens of a game designer. A gamified event or a serious game. This allows you to think about the behaviour changes that you want them (learners, employees, managers, etc) to realize by looking at: Game goal Mechanics Actions and Resources Failure and winning Whether you want to nudge behaviour changes by rewarding daily actions, encourage completion of a task, or reward for daily practice just by applying gamification elements, you can discover key components about the topic that you may have missed. Game thinking is the litmus test to whether you have fully considered and included all of the necessary content. Deborah Thomas is the President, Owner and Senior Consultant at SillyMonkey LLC. She is currently focused on games design and development in training. With over 20 year experience in the L&D field from training manager, instructional designer and game designer, she really has a grasp on what makes great training.

The most innovative creators and thinkers in L&D have one thing in common - they love to play. There is plenty of research that proves the value of play within learning, whether that be growing relationships to form stronger teams, improving performance in work, happier employees... the list goes on. But for adults, play sounds too much like the opposite of work and so it isn’t taken seriously as a valuable practice and life skill. This week Chris and Brent are talking with a few special guests to learn more about how you can improve your learning outcomes by incorporating PLAY into your programs. Join us for a special announcement as well. It’s a week long experience with experts and peers that you will not want to miss. Chatting with us this week: Karl Kapp, Kevin Thorn and Deborah Thomas. Karl is a professor at Bloomsburg University for Instructional technology and the Director of the Institute for Interactive Technologies. His goal is to help people understand the convergence of learning, technology, games & game-thinking through fun, laughter and insight (grounded by evidence-based practices).

In this follow-up to our two-part special feature on the 2018 Museum Ethnographer's Group conference "Decolonizing the Museum in Practice", held in April of last year we interview Dr. Wayne Modest, director of the Research Center for Material Culture. Hosted by Deborah Thomas and interviewed by Chris Green, Dr. Modest shares with us his thoughts on decolonizing as an ongoing commitment. He emphasizes the great responsibility that curators have to the people, past and present, who are represented in museum collections. In his view, museum research and curation must always be public-facing and must commit to working together with those whose lives are most precarious in the afterlives of colonialism and empire.

In this two-part special feature we think with the Museum Ethnographer's Group conference "Decolonizing the Museum in Practice", held in April of this year (http://www.museumethnographersgroup.org.uk/en/conference/422-2018-conference-decolonising-the-museum-in-practice.html). The second part focuses on the stories and objects around which much decolonizing work revolves and features a read paper by JC Niala and an interview with Laura Peers. Niala relates to us a story that illustrates, among many other insights, what is lost when indigenous perspectives are not included or even considered in museum exhibits; Peers shows us what the process of building relationships between museums and indigenous communities might look like and the challenges that must be overcome to successfully share access to and ultimately governance of museum collections. Hosted by Deborah Thomas and with interviews conducted by Chris and Cassandra Green, this two-part series on “decolonizing museums” examines the past, present, and future(s) of museum practice. Given often sordid collection histories and the strained at best or non-existent at worst relations that museums have had with communities of origin, these interviews address how we might face head-on the legacies of colonialism and empire.

The first part focuses on the legacies and futures of ethnographic museums and features interviews with Faye Belsey, Laura Van Broekhoven, and Rachael Minott. Together, these conversations ask us: what does decolonization look like in practice, how can injustices past and present be addressed by museum professionals, and by what means might we better balance power and access between museum staff and diverse stakeholders?

“Is Diversity Winning in the Boardroom and Executive Ranks”, Blenheim Partners’ Gregory Robinson and Deborah Thomas discuss the current diversity statistics in Australian business and ask why it’s not gaining momentum and why the change is minimal and the pace is glacial at the top-end. Together they examine the current Boardroom dynamics and question why some young executives are choosing to leave promising careers for Non-Executive Director roles and are Boards and Senior Executives really maximising the tremendous opportunity for authentic diversity of thought. In a no- nonsense and thought provocative conversation they ask the tough questions.As executive search professionals they are concerned the traditional succession and diversity planning processes are failing to unearth and promote the outstanding potential in the market and build the future executive pipeline effectively. They discuss and present solutions in this very important topic.

Gravitas has become the newest “it” factor in separating oneself from the pack. People with gravitas stand up, stand out and simply STAND when others may crumble or hide.  As you take stock of your professional brand, ask yourself, “do people take me seriously or do I sabotage myself?” Do you need to bump-up your “cred” in order to move things forward in your professional life?  On Wednesday, May 31 at 1pm ET #WorkTrends host Meghan M. Biro and special guest Deborah Thomas will be discussing what distinguishes someone with gravitas from someone who lacks it.

Episode 1 includes an interview with Deborah Thomas about her vision for the journal and website as well as a discussion about the nexus of race and science featuring Dorothy Roberts, Michael Yudell, and Sarah Tishkoff.
