When I decided to start inviting guests onto Shameless Leadership, I immediately knew I wanted my dear friend and speaking colleague Elena Joy to join me. The work Elena Joy does around inclusion always captivates me. She is smart, witty, and strategic in all the best ways - as you'll hear in this conversation. She knows what needs to be done to get the work done. Her unflinching commitment to tackling tough conversations while upholding human dignity always blows me away. While her knowledge around inclusion and its connection to burnout is robust, her methods for tackling challenges where these areas intersect are approachable and welcoming. This is all to say, Elena Joy makes me want to be a better human, and I suspect she will have the same impact on you.   In an official capacity, Elena Joy Thurston, she/her, is the CEO of LATITUDE, a boutique HR consultancy specializing in creating sustainable leadership pipelines through burnout prevention and emerging leader programs. A Mormon mom of four who lost her marriage, her church, and her community when she came out as a lesbian, her viral TEDx talk on surviving conversion therapy has attracted clients such as the Denver Broncos, Peloton, and Planned Parenthood. She is featured in the award-winning documentary CONVERSION, recently launched on AppleTV and Amazon. Elena Joy lives in Arizona with her four children and spends her spare time dreaming of her next fly-fishing trip. Listen in to hear Elena share: How she saw the writing on the wall with DEI and made an intentional pivot in her work in order to continue to achieve her goals around inclusion in the workplace  The truth about the state of DEI - what has been taken from us and what we still have to work with, and what it all means in terms of sustainable leadership  How understanding our co-workers' identities opens the door to communication and decreases burnout What burnout looks like in 2025 and how it looks different for Gen X, Millennials, and Gen Z How burnout is universal and individual at the same time The importance of creating positive emotional experiences to counter the feelings that trigger your burnout How to use the Release & Restore Method to shift your energy daily, weekly, monthly, yearly Links Mentioned: Women Business Owners, join me for a free business-building workshop on July 16th, Focused & Fierce: Lead with Purpose and Build Your Business in a Noisy World: saradean.com/fierce Hire me to speak: saradean.com/speaking Coach with me: https://saradean.com/executive-coaching-services Connect with me on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/saradeanspeaks Watch Shameless Leadership episodes on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@saradeanspeaks Work with Elena Joy: https://latitudeleaders.com/ Get Elena Joy's Free Burnout Starter Kit: https://latitudeleaders.com/burnoutstarterkit Attend Elena Joy's Free Office Hours: http://joyfulofficehours.com Latitude Leaders on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/latitude-leaders/ Latitude Leaders on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/latitudeleaders Elena Joy on on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/elenajoythurston/ Elena Joy on Instragram https://www.instagram.com/elenajoyspeaks/ Elena Joy's TEDx talk on Youtube: https://youtu.be/rIhPZMC4UEg Interested in becoming a sponsor of the Shameless Mom Academy?

Jon offers his opinion on the FBI's comments on the Jeffrey Epstein case, and the devastating Texas floods, and the response to both. Jon takes down controversial comments from a U of M professor and DEI-related items that were included in the latest teacher's union CBA.

Ben Lindbergh and Meg Rowley banter about how many members of the All-Star Celebrity Softball Game roster they have heard of, honorary all-stars, and velocity spikes preceding arm injuries, then discuss an investigation concerning possible pitch-fixing by Luis L. Ortiz, a federal civil rights complaint about the Dodgers' DEI policies, and Rob Manfred's pitch to […]

Happy 4th of July! In today's classic episode of 'Will Cain Country,' Will shares a deep conversation with his good friend, former 'Fox & Friends Weekend' co-host, and current Secretary of Defense, Pete Hegseth. Yes, the same Pete Hegseth who Jon Stewart called one of the most sexually attractive men in news. From laughs to serious ground, Will and Pete cover the launch of the Texas Stock Exchange, but the centerpiece of the discussion is Pete's book, The War on Warriors. He argues that the U.S. military, once America's most meritocratic institution, is being hollowed out by DEI mandates, CRT dogma, and political careerism. Pete shares raw, real stories from active-duty service members and calls out leadership by name, including General Mark Milley. They close with the big questions: Can Trump fix this in a second term? Should we bring back the draft? And what's the greatest threat to America today? (Spoiler: it's not China.) Do you think we have some of those answers today? This is a conversation that hits hard and shows why President Donald Trump tapped Pete as Secretary of Defense.

This week hosts Tiffany Cross, Angela Rye, and Andrew Gillum grapple with the proposed federal budget. Trump’s “big beautiful” budget is poised to be the largest cut to the social safety net in generations, and the largest transfer of wealth from low income to high income Americans EVER. Millions of Americans will lose health coverage and access to SNAP or food stamps. Countless other federal programs are being cut while the budget for the military and mass deportation adds hundreds of billions of dollars, and tax cuts for the wealthiest Americans are extended. How do we respond? Funding for research, especially medical research into diseases like Sickle Cell that disproportionately affect the Black community, has already faced cuts. The Trump administration continues to end programs that could be construed as “DEI,” which in effect is any program aimed at helping the Black community. The verdict is in for Sean “Diddy” Combs and it seems like the prosecution over reached. He was accused of and charged with some heinous acts for sure. But anytime a prominent Black man is attacked by the justice system, it can bring up some complicated emotions. And of course we’ll hear from you!

Erec Smith of the Cato Institute returns to the show to talk about where the US stands with its DEI and woke culture and policies. Now at a crossroads, will academia change? Sports? Business? With a new administration bent on changing law and policy against DEI, we seem to be in a period of reprieve, but will it last? Cwic Media Website: http://www.cwicmedia.com

Jessamyn Neuhaus shares about her book, SNAFU Edu: Teaching and Learning When Things Go Wrong in the College Classroom, on episode 577 of the Teaching in Higher Ed podcast. Quotes from the episode Human beings make mistakes. We make mistakes as part of learning. We make mistakes just being in the world. -Jessamyn Neuhaus Academia generally attracts people with perfectionist tendencies. -Jessamyn Neuhaus Sometimes there is no positive outcome when something goes wrong. Sometimes things just get messed up because people are human. -Jessamyn Neuhaus Inadvertently we have a subtext that teaching is somehow perfectible.

In today's climate, where DEIB efforts are under attack, smart organizations know that embracing diverse perspectives leads to better decisions, stronger innovation, and thriving teams. Today, I'm thrilled to talk with Asheli Mann-Lofthouse about how to build and sustain impactful DEIB efforts—whether you're just starting or already well along the journey.We dive into how DEIB differs between nonprofits and for-profits, why the ultimate goal is to make DEIB programs obsolete, and what's needed at every stage—budget, buy-in, ROI, and more. Asheli also breaks down the difference between sponsors and allies, how cis white individuals can spark change in spaces where representation is low, and why your team's culture matters more than their job responsibilities.To access the episode transcript, please search for the episode title at www.TheEmpathyEdge.comKey Takeaways:DEIB isn't going anywhere, no matter what the politics say. People are just getting creative in how they describe it, talk about it, and structure it.While allyship is important, sponsorship is equally important. The more diverse voices you have, the better business decisions you're going to make.

This week we speak with Jonathan Azu, founder of Culture Collective, on the state of the live industry, along with some exciting projects & collaborations he's working on! Jonathan discusses how important it is for executives to diversify themselves in the same way today's artists do, highlighting the multi-hyphenate approach he has taken for his business by working on tours, TV specials, philanthropic and DEI-related work, and developing artists. Jonathan provides us his expertise, evaluating the consistency of our industry's DEI initiatives born out of the self-reflection that came from the COVID era, and how large-scale change comes from those in power. He also examines how the live industry has ebbed and flowed as a result of the pandemic, tying together how no matter what venue, city or capacity, a show itself must be great to have longevity.

This week on The Feds, Brad Dacus, attorney and founder of the Pacific Justice Institute (PJI), gives a reading on the pulse of religious liberty in the United States. This week, Brad explores the state of US religious freedoms, discussing pressing issues like vaccine mandates and the clash between Big Pharma and religious communities. From denied exemptions in the military, to subtle forms of persecution, we discuss how Americans are navigating threats to their religious liberties. Brad gives insight on the Religious Freedom Commission (est. 2025), the cultural acceptance of President Trump's DEI purge, the erosion of freedoms, and what it means for the soul of our nation.Brad Dacus earned his Juris Doctor from the University of Texas School of Law. With a fervent dedication to constitutional rights, Brad founded the Pacific Justice Institute (PJI) in 1997. PJI has since grown into one of the largest Christian non-profit organizations, offering legal—free of charge—services to defend faith and family.

Today's Headlines: Trump's budget bill advanced in the Senate with a narrow 51-49 vote, cutting $1 trillion from Medicaid and handing massive tax breaks to the wealthy while adding $3 trillion to the national debt. Two Republicans voted no, and the final vote was delayed as Democrats forced a reading of the 940-page bill. Meanwhile, the Supreme Court ruled that parents can pull kids from public school over LGBTQ content and narrowed lower courts' power to block Trump's executive orders. A Honduran mother is suing ICE after she and her two kids—one of whom has leukemia—were detained during an asylum court date. DHS also announced the end of Temporary Protected Status for over 300,000 Haitians, forcing them to leave by September. Iran's top cleric issued a fatwa calling for the deaths of Trump and Netanyahu. At a Senate hearing, the U.S. military admitted it never used bunker-busting bombs in Iran strikes, contradicting Trump's “total obliteration” claims. Trump abruptly ended trade talks with Canada over its digital services tax, prompting Canadian retaliation. Consumer spending and income both dropped in May, sparking recession concerns. Miami postponed its November election by a year, extending current officials' terms—likely illegally. The University of Virginia's president resigned under Trump administration pressure over DEI efforts. And in Coeur d'Alene, Idaho, an active shooter killed two firefighters in an ambush; the story is still developing. Resources/Articles mentioned in this episode: WaPo: GOP Sen.

What a difference a week makes, Iran got bombed to hell and back by the United States and it's B2's.

Activist judges were handed massive blow because of that ruling. They cannot get in the way of the Trump agenda frivolously. NYC has a mayorial candiate who's as socialist as it gets, racists, and wants to defund the NYPD because violence is apparently a construct.

Read more at VPM News about Ryan's exit and the public response. UVA's Board of Visitors voted in March to dismantle DEI initiatives following a January executive order from Trump. Since then, the US Department of Justice has been publicly pressuring Ryan and UVA to produce a detailed progress report on its ongoing cancellation of all DEI-related programs. School officials told VPM News on June 20 that the federal government's deadline for producing that report had been extended by DOJ. However, the public demands for its release have continued — and as first reported by The New York Times late last week, came to a head when Ryan was asked to resign in order to resolve the ongoing dispute. University is essential to continue the core mission of research, education, and clinical care." Ryan's resignation comes as four seats on the governor-appointed board — which will be responsible for selecting his successor — are set to turn over tomorrow on July 1.

What if cultural fluency was the leadership skill no one taught you—but every global leader needs? Today I had the pleasure of sitting down with Jane Hyun—global leadership strategist, executive coach, and author of three books including "Breaking the Bamboo Ceiling"—to explore how high-performing teams thrive on difference, not in spite of it. Jane shares how her early years as an immigrant in New York shaped a lifelong commitment to helping people lead across cultural lines with authenticity and impact. We unpack her concept of “cultural fluency”—the skill of working effectively with people who don't look, think, or act like you. It's not about checking boxes. It's about making the invisible visible and using difference as a leadership advantage. Jane explains how organizations often overlook deep cultural factors that influence trust, motivation, and team dynamics—and what happens when they start to notice. From keynotes to executive coaching, Jane builds frameworks that help leaders and organizations lead better, sell better, and grow smarter—especially in a world that's only becoming more complex and connected. We also talk about the emotional and intellectual work of carrying an idea like “breaking the bamboo ceiling” for over 20 years—and how thought leadership evolves when it's lived, not just taught. If you lead teams, create culture, or want to sharpen your edge as a communicator—this conversation is your wake-up call. Cultural fluency isn't optional anymore. It's mission-critical. Three Key Takeaways: • Cultural Fluency Is a Learnable Leadership Skill Cultural fluency—Jane's signature concept—isn't innate, and it's not just about surface-level etiquette. It's the ability to recognize, respect, and leverage human differences to drive better business outcomes. Leaders who develop this skill are more effective at collaboration, innovation, and navigating global complexity. • Difference Drives Performance—When It's Understood Multicultural teams only outperform homogeneous ones when leaders understand how to harness cultural differences. Suppressing difference creates friction and missed opportunity. Embracing it—with intention—unlocks trust, engagement, and results. • Thought Leadership Is a Lifelong Journey, Not a Title Jane didn't set out to become a thought leader—she followed her curiosity and passion to solve a problem she lived through. Over time, that experience evolved into frameworks, language (“breaking the bamboo ceiling,” “cultural fluency”), and a platform that empowers others. The best thought leadership emerges from lived experience, not just expertise. If today's episode sparked your thinking on cultural fluency and leading across differences, you'll want to dive into our conversation on "The Intersection of Leadership, Business, Culture, and Spirituality" with Eboni Adams Monk. It explores similar themes—like authentic leadership, navigating complexity, and creating inclusive spaces—but adds a powerful lens of purpose and spiritual alignment. Both episodes offer insight into what it really takes to lead with intention in today's diverse, fast-changing world. Don't miss it.

David Waldman is BACK for the Friday KITM, then GONE for the weekend, then BACK on the Monday KITM! See how that works? In local, to KITM World Headquarters, news, the University of Virginia and Virginia Commonwealth University can't operate any “illegal” DEI programs to get federal funding, and they really like federal funding, therefore they're obeying anticipatorily.  The White House appreciates their cooperation and will now require the resignation of the University of Virginia's president. In even more local news, the Superintendent of Loudoun Schools, Aaron Spence eloquently describes how Trump can kiss his DEI-loving ass. Meanwhile, a selling point for a four-year degree has always been where you'll be spending those four years. People assumed someone had fixed the DOGE by cutting off Big Balls, but he's only been tucked away, out of sight. The US is slashing overseas pro-democracy initiatives, yet Samuel Samson over at the US State Department wanted your tax money to go to anti-democracy initiatives to support Marine Le Pen.  Le Pen had the self-respect to turn him down. Remember when real men were both strong and silent? Why can't we try bringing back those days again? Why are supervillains always such big mouths?

Have you ever wondered how you can take your existing hybrid work model and optimize it so that it serves both your employees and your business goals? We often think of hybrid models as a  compromise between remote and office-based work but — if you don't intentionally design and revisit your hybrid strategy regularly — this mentality can end up hindering productivity rather than enhancing it. Which is why on this episode of Inclusion in Progress, we're diving into one of the 12 distributed work models we've identified while working with remote and hybrid teams.  This episode breaks down the Output-Optimized Hybrid Model — which balances the best of remote autonomy and in-person collaboration. We cover: How to ensure that productivity and collaboration are measured by output, not locatioN What to consider before choosing this Output-Optimized Hybrid Model for your teams The challenges of implementing this distributed work model and how to solve them We'll be breaking down the rest of all of these work models on future episodes, so subscribe to the podcast to make sure you don't miss out!

Genesis 1:27 clearly shows that God created us male and female while Genesis 2:24 shows that He had a special plan for men and women called marriage. Jesus affirmed this as we see in Matthew 19:4-6. However, a decade ago, 5 black-robed individuals believed they knew better than God and created a constitutional right to so-called same-sex marriage. Today marks the 10th anniversary of the Obergefell v. Hodges court decision. Former Rowan County, Kentucky, County Clerk Kim Davis is "Exhibit A" in all of this and has been since she refused to grant a marriage license to a same-sex couple. If Obergefell is overturned, what will become of current same-sex marriages? Review this broadcast as Jim has Mat go through the decision's historic timeline. Part of that involves seeing how the whole transgender and DEI phenomenon we're experiencing flows out from Obergefell. Mat delivered the updates to this critical case and listeners presented their input as well.

A retired police captain turned artist, Jennifer Steck realized she didn't have to wait for opportunities to come to her—she could create them. Seeing a gap in what was available for artists to sell their work, Jennifer founded Artburst Studios, an online gallery that's part pop-up show and part community hub for artists. She had zero experience running a gallery, but that didn't stop her. Armed with curiosity, a clear vision, and plenty of determination, Jennifer (at the time of this recording) has helped over 80 artists sell more than $174,000 of art in just a few years. In this episode, she shares how a simple idea (and a lot of spreadsheets!) grew into a platform connecting artists with buyers and each other. In this conversation, host Alyson Stanfield talks with Jennifer about: Her “aha” moment as a new artist that inspired an artist-centered online gallery. The key qualities Jennifer looks for (like clarity, consistency, and an active practice) when reviewing an artist's online presence—and what might make her pass. Why community and collaboration are baked into the Artburst model, and how they benefit every artist involved. Strategies for overcoming artists' reluctance to promote their work and engage their audiences. How fear, perfectionism, and overthinking can sabotage art sales—and ways to avoid these common pitfalls. ⌛️ HIGHLIGHTS 00:35 Meet Jennifer Steck – From police captain to artist entrepreneur. 06:00 The “aha” moment – How a Facebook art auction sparked the idea for Artburst Studios. 10:30 Running a virtual art show – Artburst's short pop-up exhibitions and the importance of artists actively promoting their work. 13:45 Emphasizing community – Encouraging artists to support one another and provide great experiences for their buyers. 16:00 Choosing the right artists – What Jennifer looks for online (and the red flags that make her say “no thanks”). 22:10 Personal touch in sales – How Artburst handles sales and gets artists directly connected with their buyers. 26:30 Why artists resist marketing – Understanding the stigma around self-promotion and how Jennifer helps artists move past it. 35:00 Conquering common mindset blocks – Tackling fear of exposure, perfectionism, and “analysis paralysis” that can hold artists back. 40:00 Looking ahead – Jennifer's plans to launch the Artburst Boutique for smaller, more frequent art shows. 44:00 Final encouragement – An open invitation for artists to get involved, and why showing up (like attending shows) is so important before seeking opportunities.

Gary discusses a few "things in the news" and gives his unique spin on them. He mentions that in addition to the usual nonsense happening, there are also signs that things are slowly changing.

G. Tyler Burns and Dr. Jemar Tisby unpack the fast-growing #TargetFast/#BoycottTarget campaign sparked by the retailer's rollback of its $2 billion pledge to Black entrepreneurs and other DEI commitments. They trace how Pastor Jamal Harrison Bryant's 40-day “Target Fast” evolved into a nationwide boycott and explore why economic withdrawals work only when they're paired with proactive redirecting of cash toward Black-owned businesses. Along the way, they share practical ways listeners can swap everyday Target runs for sustainable “buy-Black” habits, highlight tools such as the US Black Chambers' new ByBlack Product Search, and reflect on the historic theology of conscience-driven consumer action Learn more about your ad choices.
