What do scuba divers and astronauts have to do with referrals? I haven't gone off my rocker, stick with me here. I read about this concept in a book called Every Word, and although the concept in that context wasn't about business, it SO applies to business. In this episode, I'll share what your business and referrals actually have to do with scuba divers and astronauts—and how this concept can help you find perspective in the right way.

Nella puntata odierna di Bricks and Music, in onda quotidianamente su Casa Italia Radio, Paolo Leccese ed il poliedrico ing. Emiliano Cioffarelli, ci hanno proposto delle testimonianze raccolte direttamente dai protagonisti dell'evento Donna Immagine e Città, in particolare:Mehret Tewolde Vicepresidente dell'associazione Le Reseau, che è stata fondata nel 2002 a Parma con l'obiettivo di bilanciare la narrativa sull'Africa e di promuovere la cultura africana. L'associazione è composta sia da africani che da italiani e lavora con gli autoctoni africani di nuova generazione per creare incontri tra culture diverse. Mehret parla anche del significato di cooperazione internazionale in Italia e del ruolo delle diaspore. In risposta alla domanda su cosa significa essere una donna, Mehret sottolinea che ogni donna è unica e che l'importante è che ognuna possa scegliere il proprio modello di donna, senza essere soggetta a imposizioni. Infine, Mehret commenta che lavorare in un ambiente laico è più facile per una donna rispetto a uno religioso, ma che non è impossibile.Josefa Trinidad, analista politica, afferma che per lei essere donna significa essere coraggiosa e determinata, in quanto le donne devono affrontare molte sfide nella loro vita personale, privata e professionale. Lei sottolinea che la società le prepara a svolgere diversi ruoli, come figlia, madre e membro attivo della comunità, e che ci vuole coraggio e determinazione per superare le barriere che le donne devono affrontare nell'affermarsi nella società. Josefa ha deciso di diventare analista politica perché le piace fare analisi politiche e ha imparato a leggere attraverso i giornali, poiché nel suo paese durante la guerra non c'erano librerie. Nell'intervista è emerso che che la politica e l'economia sono strettamente legate tra loro e non possono esistere l'una senza l'altra. La persona che fa analisi politiche deve anche avere una comprensione delle politiche economiche per aiutare le aziende a investire in mercati esteri. Josefa, che si occupa di rapporti tra Italia e Angola, sottolinea l'importanza di conoscere le politiche imprenditoriali e gli incentivi dei due Paesi per fornire una consulenza precisa e completa nel settore agroalimentare, in particolare nel settore Horeca (hotellerie, ristorazione e catering).Susanna Owusu, Diaspora e Migration Consultant, non partecipa spesso a eventi in cui si parla solo di donne o si parla solo di femminismo, perché lei si occupa di corpi neri, corpi razionalizzati, corpi in generale e spesso poco alla dimensione di genere. Per lei essere donna significa avere delle peculiarità, ma allo stesso tempo vivere delle discriminazioni significa vivere la propria femminilità dettata dalla propria libertà. Susanna è nata e cresciuta in Italia e ha origini ghanesi, e nota che la differenza c'è sempre nei diversi Paesi di come le donne vengono percepite e nel loro ruolo nella società. Nel suo lavoro, Susanna si occupa di comunicazione per organizzazioni nazionali e internazionali e si occupa di progetti specifici che riguardano la cooperazione internazionale, lo sviluppo e le migrazioni e le diversità. Susanna è anche CEO e fondatrice di DiveIn.

It's time to take the ‘dis' out of disability. VIA's DiveIn platform covers the most pressing topics in Diversity, Equity & Inclusion, and this summer, we're proud to partner with Boomerang Agency to ignite an industry-wide movement for Neurodiversity. An estimated 15% of the population is Neurodivergent - a term covering Autism, ADHD, Dyslexia, Tourette's syndrome, Dysgraphia, Dyscalculia, Dyspraxia and more (and this is most likely a low-ball figure). Neurodiversity is a part of our genetics and evolution as a species – it's part of what makes us so special. But, according to psychologist Dr. Devon MacEachron, under the current medical model, neurological differences are considered to be dysfunctional, disorders or disabilities. And this is reflected in under-representation of neurodivergents in the workplace. In this campaign, we reframe neurodivergent attributes as strengths, such that this community can thrive in whatever context – not the least of which is the workplace. So join us in conversation with project initiator and creative powerhouse Danielle Yaor. Finally, be sure to join us for the rest of this campaign! We'll host our Metaverse* Neurodiversity Pride Day event on June 18th (in collaboration with the Neurodiversity Foundation), and continue with VIA fall Neurodiversity programming at VIA (think: speakers, art, food & drinks).

 People think anger is destructive or separating but when embodied and felt through the lens of the heart it's actually connecting and whole-making. The frustration that occurs when separated parts rub together is energy that is required to merge those parts back together and heal. Divine Masculine: Desire is always pulling us into and towards a more whole expression of self, so embrace every part of self and don't judge any part as bad, including anger.

Jillian has also modeled for brands like Olay, Nordstrom and Target and has appeared on the cover of Teen Vogue’s September issue. Jillian is a fierce advocate for people with disabilities. Through her work, she wants people who may be going through the same journey to feel that they are valued, loved and worthy of being alive.

“R U There?” These three words from an anonymous texter catapulted Nancy Lublin into a bold mission: Create rapid-response counseling for people in crisis. In 2013, she launched Crisis Text Line, a nonprofit organization that provides free 24/7 crisis support via text messaging. Research has shown that globally, 1 in 4 people will struggle with mental illness at some point in their lives. And according to the World Health Organization, nearly two-thirds of those with known mental disorder never seek help from a health professional — even if treatment is available. This week, we’re sharing the story of Nancy Lublin, Founder and CEO of Crisis Text Line. Nancy is a tenacious problem-solver. She created Dress For Success, an organization that provides professional outfits, resources and training to women in need. She also previously led DoSomething.org as CEO, turning the failing nonprofit around into one of the largest organizations for young people in social activism and change. We’re also hearing from Bob Filbin, Co Founder and Chief Data Scientist at Crisis Text Line, in this episode. Bob made the critical leap with Nancy to help build a robust service that brings texters “from a hot moment to a cool calm”. By leveraging data and text messaging, Crisis Text Line has seen over 105 million messages exchanged and trains thousands of volunteer crisis counselors monthly. “It’s strangers helping strangers in their darkest moments,” says Nancy. This story does not only cover the topic of mental health. It's a compelling case for the good in humanity. If you are struggling with anxiety, depression, emotional abuse or any type of crisis, we urge you to listen to this story, and know that you are not alone.

When Asha Curran first heard of the idea for GivingTuesday from her colleague Henry Timms, she did not foresee how one day of giving could turn into a global movement. She was then working at 92nd Street Y, a nonprofit community and cultural center located in Manhattan, New York. Throughout her career, Asha helped push what’s possible: How do you innovate for nonprofits? What does community mean in an age where there are no boundaries? In this episode, we’re sharing the story of social good innovator and CEO of GivingTuesday, Asha Curran. Before taking GivingTuesday into the next stage of evolution, Asha helped propel successful programs at 92nd Street Y such as the Social Good Summit, an annual event for tech and global development leaders, in partnership with the UN Foundation and Mashable. But one particular experiment led Asha to where she is today: #GivingTuesday, a day when people would give back to causes and issues that matter to them. Last year, over 400 million dollars were donated online in just 24 hours of Giving Tuesday. The movement is now celebrated in over 60 countries. GivingTuesday has radically changed how people think about generosity, and showed the power of communities everywhere to create change.

As a father, Jason always tries to lead by example and he is on a mission to change the lives of 1,000,000 men so they can become the leaders of their family in every aspect. In his free time Jason enjoys doing active things with his family and loves spending time outdoors. “I’m currently in the best shape of my life but it hasn't always been this way. I used to have a Dad Bod myself until one day I decided I was sick and tired of being sick and tired. I spent the first 6 years of my career working in an ICU as a registered nurse followed by several years as a Director of Nursing at a long term care facility. I later went on to work in corporate wellness doing health coaching and personal training and I am also a fitness nutrition specialist. I have a wealth of knowledge when it comes to health and fitness and after re-defining my own Dad Bod I wanted to create a program that was simple to follow and still allowed other Dads and busy professionals to eat all of the foods they love and even enjoy some occasional beers. I remember the days of skipping meals, poor nutrition and minimal exercise when I was always running on fumes. That is no way to live and is the very reason why I started Dad Bod Health and have helped 100's of Dads and busy professionals re-define their Dad Bods. I wanted to help other men simplify their lives when it comes to fitness and nutrition so they can live the life they deserve and be the leaders of their families in every aspect of life.” You can find Jason Priest at: Website: www.dadbodhealth.com Linked In: https://www.linkedin.com/in/dadbodhealth/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/DadBodHealthOfficial/ Instagram: @dadbodhealth Twitter: @dad_bod_health Email: jason@dadbodhealth.com

Hello, listeners, and welcome back to Tech Forward. This week, we'll be revisiting my conversations with Andreas Freund, co-founder of DiveIn, a platform where people can easily get involved with causes they care about at the local level. As a proud son of immigrants and a San Francisco native, Andreas was inspired to create DiveIn after witnessing the effects of the refugee crisis in Germany in 2015. In an era where we have so much at our fingertips, Andreas realized it was unacceptable that we can wake up with the desire to help in our own communities, but not be able to use technology to make that process seamless and frictionless. DiveIn helps its users connect on two levels: location, and causes. Whether your passion is the environment, animal welfare, or social justice, DiveIn allows you to access relevant content and discussions, and find opportunities to get involved in those causes with like-minded people at the local level. So what does “getting involved” look like? “The types of experiences themselves can be really diverse. If you’re going to go out and get a beer after work, why not go to a place where there’s someone speaking? Or where the proceeds will go to a good cause? Getting involved can be putting on a pair of gloves and getting your hands dirty doing volunteer work, but it can also mean going to a screening and exposing yourself to new ideas.” Andreas acknowledges that his status as a millennial played a significant role in the formation of DiveIn — and how it will make money. “Millennials may have grown up on the internet, but that doesn’t mean we want to spend all of our time on it. We love experiences. We want to get out there and be active in our communities, but the barriers to access need to be lowered.” As part of a recent wave of social entrepreneurship, Andreas wanted to ensure that DiveIn’s revenue model didn’t undermine their core values. Currently, they operate with a “pay by participant” model, where event hosts are charged a fixed fee for ever new person they activate at the local level. As a Latino man who grew up attending protests with his grandparents, Andreas has made diversity a strong priority for DiveIn. “It’s important that our team reflects the communities we serve. Diversity matters, not just because it’s the right thing to do, but because it makes business sense. More diverse companies generate more revenue, so the moral element is really backed up by the numbers.” Moving forwards, Andreas is committed to doing the work to push back against internal biases as the team grows. Over the next few years, Andreas aims to expand DiveIn at the national level by establishing a presence in the top 5 metro areas of the US (Los Angeles, Chicago, Philadelphia, Dallas/Fort Worth, and New York City). Andreas, I can’t wait to see your community grow as people across the country get activated with DiveIn. Thank you so much for joining me on the show, and thank you to all of you who tuned in.
