Podcast appearances and mentions of Donna Smith

Listeners, what were you doing in 2004? Perhaps you were strolling down the street in low rise jeans, Uggs, and a Livestrong bracelet listening to Outkast's “Hey Ya!” Or maybe you were sitting in a movie theater ready to have your mind blown by Ashton Kutcher's tour de force performance in The Butterfly Effect. Well, the folks joining us on this week's episode of our podcast may have missed some of that stuff because they were too busy building a movement for healthcare justice! 2024 marks the 20th anniversary of Healthcare NOW, the national organization fighting for Medicare for All that brings you your favorite podcast! If you're a regular listener, you probably know that I was the Executive Director of Healthcare NOW for 11 years, and Gillian is the current Executive Director, but today we're taking it back to 2004 and talking with some of the OGs who started it all! This episode features some of our very favorite people -- the leaders in the healthcare justice movement who have made Healthcare NOW what it is today (the creator of your favorite podcast content!): Mark Dudzic is a longtime union organizer and activist.  He served as national organizer of the Labor Party from 2003 to 2007 and was a cofounder of the Labor Campaign for Single Payer in 2009.  He has been a member of the Healthcare Now board since its founding in 2004. Lindy Hern is the Chair of the Sociology Department at the University of Hawaii at Hilo and President of the Association for Applied and Clinical Sociology. She has been on the Healthcare NOW board since 2009 and is the author of “Single Payer Healthcare Reform: Grassroots Mobilization and the Turn Against Establishment Politics in the Medicare for All Movement."  Donna Smith is an advocate for single payer, improved and expanded Medicare for all. Her journalism career included work as a stringer for NEWSWEEK magazine, editing and reporting for the Black Hills Pioneer in South Dakota, as well as appearances on CNN and Bill Moyers Journal, and as one of the subjects in Michael Moore's 2007 film, SiCKO. She worked for National Nurses United and traveled more than 250,000 miles advocating for health justice. She now serves as the National Advisory Board chair for Progressive Democrats of America. Walter Tsou is a Board Advisor to Physicians for a National Health Program and on the Board of HCN.  He has been a long time single payer healthcare activist.  Walter is a former Health Commissioner of Philadelphia and Past President of the American Public Health Association. Cindy Young has been a healthcare activist for over 40 years. She has served on the Health Care Now board since 2012. In her retirement, she serves as a Vice President for the California Alliance for Retired Americans (CARA), whose principle goal is to establish a single payer system in California. If this episode doesn't give you your fill of Healthcare NOW history, you can always check out Lindy's book or this sweet tribute to our founder Marilyn Clement. And of course, if you want to keep up the good work of all these amazing folks, you can make a donation to support our work!

Donna Smith began her career as Production Coordinator on RAGING BULL and quickly rose through the ranks, serving as Production Manager, Line Producer and Producer on notable projects that included THE TERMINATOR.Smith was tapped by Universal Pictures to serve as President of Physical Production and Post Production; becoming the first woman to serve in that role for a major Hollywood studio.During Smith's seven-year tenure at Universal, more than 120 titles were released under her leadership including; Academy Award winner SCHINDLER'S LIST, JURASSIC PARK, BABE, SCENT OF A WOMAN, CASINO, BACKDRAFT, BACK TO THE FUTURE, APOLLO 13 and WATERWORLD.Following her executive role at Universal, Donna entered the world of completion bonds, having established a sterling reputation as a “highly bondable” producer. Donna served as CEO/President for the Entertainment Coalition, a management entity formed to coordinate full-service completion bond and insurance services for the entertainment industry worldwide.

“Regardless of who writes the check, you are in business for yourself,” says Dr. Donna Smith Bellinger, sales consultant and CEO of DS Bellinger Consulting. Dr. Bellinger joins the podcast to give advice about how entrepreneurs can best, as she calls it, “consistently communicate your competence.” This starts with demonstrating that you are someone people want to follow. This means knowing your non-negotiables and standing by them without apology, going where your expertise is valued, and deciding on the best use of your precious time. These boundaries will allow you to select only the clients who will best serve you and whom you can best serve in return. Dr. Donna brings more than 40 years of corporate leadership experience to today's discussion. Join to learn about what she calls objection aversion, how to know if your job is really a hobby and her honest thoughts about being broke.Quotes“You need to remember that you are not now selling a brand. You are selling your education and your expertise.” (3:04 | Dr. Donna) “Especially in the US, we're a bunch of followers. We follow successful people. So if you want to attract a certain level, you have to demonstrate that you are that person that they like to follow. We don't follow broke people. We just don't do that.” (8:42 | Dr. Donna)“You need to totally understand your non-negotiables and then stand by them. Because again, if you're letting the business run you, this is just the job that you own.” (15:46 | Dr. Donna)“You must be able to consistently communicate your competence, which is your value.” (20:39 | Dr. Donna)“The first person you have to sell on the value of your business is yourself. That way when you make the offer, and only offer the opportunity to work with you, to people that you want to work with. If they represent people that you don't like, don't work with them. Go find somebody you enjoy being with.” (23:48 | Dr. Donna)Connect with Welcome to ElomaInstagram: @welcometoelomaWebsite: WelcometoEloma.comConnect with KileySocial: @kileypeters + Linkedin.com/in/kileypetersWebsites: RAYNEIX.com, KileyPeters.comWeekly Email Newsletter: RIXNewsletter.comEmail: info@rayneix.comConnect with Dr. Donna Bellinger:LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/donnasmithbellingerWebsite: https://www.askdsb.com/

Catalyst is a Creative Industries podcast, from Chapman University. Each episode features Chapman students who have completed a Podcasting course through the Center for Creative and Cultural Industries at the university. Students who had no podcasting experience or technical ability in the genre before taking the course were able to contribute all the segments to Catalyst this season with the goal being that they will take this ‘hands-on' experience and carry it over to the launching of their very own series. Each episode of Season 9 will feature one to two different interviews conducted by CCI students, exploring different aspects of the Creative and Cultural Industries. This week we start with an interview of Donna Smith, the CEO and Founder of 2w Entertainment Network, Persnickety Productions, and Co-Chair of Hollywood Express, Emma DeBoer. Smith, who began her career as Production Coordinator on Raging Bull, followed by positions as a Line Producer and Producer on films such as Jurassic Park, The Terminator, and Schindler's List was also the first female President of Physical and Post Production at Universal Studios. She has also served as the Vice President of the Cannes Film Festival, was a former President of Women in Film, and currently serves as a Trustee for Women in Film. In addition, she is the president of the Bali Film Council and the United States Film Ambassador to China. Emma and Donna discuss how Smith works as a creative on projects ranging from independent to big studio productions and delve into the importance of the international market. Donna discusses what exactly her jobs have entailed and how her views on the CCI have changed. They wrap up with some insider information when Donna dishes on what she looks for when being approached with a new idea and what she thinks the future of film looks like. In our second segment of the week Alissa Sakamoto interviews Danielle Madeira, the CEO/Founder of Madeira and Partners, a full-service creative brand marketing agency specializing in experiential events.  Danielle expounds on her experience at the highest levels of event marketing, production and talent buying. Known for her contributions to popular music festivals such as Outside Lands San Francisco and Life is Beautiful Las Vegas Danielle sits down to share with Alissa her insights on the industry, including the cultural importance of live events and experiences to communities that they reflect and serve. They also touch on such things as how the concept of sustainability within the culture of live events is evolving to reflect the change they want to see. For example, utilizing creative initiatives at events to decrease the percentage of the waste produced that goes to landfill vs compost and/or recycling. Before they conclude the talk, Danielle and Alissa discuss the impetus for launching Madeira and Partners and what Danielle hopes to see in the world of live events and festivals in the future.

Listen now as Dr. Donna Smith Bellinger, a Sales Manager on Demand, Business Development Consultant, Speaker, and Author, discusses creating an exit strategy to build your best life. The term "quiet firing" is only a new name for an old idea. It happens when bosses no longer trust their employees' abilities to complete the task. It is hoped that the individual will "self-select out" rather than be given constructive criticism or the chance to learn new abilities. Rather than merely hoping their employees will leave, some managers treat them poorly in the hopes that they will.Schedule an appointmentJim WoodsPresidentWoods Kovalova GroupDiversity, Equity and Inclusion Advisors4610 S.

In spring of 2007, Michael Moore released a blockbuster documentary showing the extraordinary damage the U.S. healthcare system inflicts upon ordinary Americans. Story by story, SiCKO pulled back the veil of how ordinary illness and injury, when paired with deadly healthcare profiteering, leads to suffering, financial ruin, and even death. 15 years later, together with our friends at Progressive Democrats of America, we are bringing together the patients featured in SiCKO, whose extraordinary stories impacted Congress, shaped the Affordable Care Act, and helped to launch the modern Medicare for All movement. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vqRCZhx_280 Show Notes Our guests today are: Donna Smith and husband Larry experienced financial ruin after multiple health crises forced them into medical debt, bankruptcy, and the loss of their home.Adrian (Campbell) Montgomery, despite being fully insured, had to drive to Canada to get affordable treatment for cervical cancer. Reggie Cervantes was a 9/11 first responder who has suffered from lung issues caused by her lifesaving work in New York City.Lee Einer was a health insurance company “hit man,” whose role was to find any loophole to avoid paying large medical bills. Since then he's become a whistleblower, shining a light on fraud and dirty tricks by the healthcare industry. SiCKO was released just in time to have a major impact on the 2008 Presidential elections, and - I think - really helped push healthcare to the top of the agenda within the Democratic Party, which won the Presidency, the House, and the Senate. This led to the Affordable Care Act, which although it preserved the profits of the healthcare industry and was FAR short of a just or affordable system, addressed exactly some of the health insurance industry's most disgusting practices that were featured in the film. Aside from the ACA, the film was also a major event in the Medicare for All social movement, which grew tremendously across the country. Gillian shares how the film convinced her that her struggles with the healthcare system wasn't just a personal problem, but a systemic problem for the whole nation. That launched her into healthcare justice organizing. Thanks in large part to SiCKO pulling back the curtain on the worst behaviors of the insurance industry, a number of those practices were banned by the Affordable Care Act, including: Denying coverage to people with pre-existing conditions;Recissions (retroactively canceling your insurance coverage); andLifetime caps or annual caps on coverage. Has anything changed for our guests? Donna shares that without the ACA she would never have been insurable, and her health forced her to leave the job that provided her with employer insurance. The expansion of Medicaid was also a huge step for people without insurance. But since then, we've seen the insurance companies make even more money, and we're facing more attacks, including the efforts to privatize Medicare. The biggest change for Donna is that she has aged into Medicare, and now knows the security of having coverage. With her previous cancer diagnoses, Adrian acknowledges that due to the ACA ban on denying coverage to patients with pre-existing conditions, she's insurable, but not much else has changed. Her insurance company vetoed her doctor's plan of care for her third bout with cancer, and made her go through a different surgery before they'd cover the hysterectomy her doctor determined she needed. She almost died during that surgery, and after all of that, it wasn't successful. Reggie also recently became eligible for Medicare, but dealing with the managed care system is still a nightmare. It took her 9 months to get approval for the care needed for uterine cancer because the insurance company disagreed with her oncologist's plan. She moved from Oklahoma because she didn't have access to specialists that she does have now in California.

SUMMARY- Donna shares her experience having two early babies, how her expectations around sleep were vastly different to the reality of parenting her wakeful little ones, and the tools she found vital throughout her journey.

Finding those tiny, unpressured trout streams is a delightful form of exploration. You won't find them on the internet or in books or magazine articles—at least the ones you really want to fish. But finding a small stream that you'll probably have all to yourself and discovering the delights of catching eager trout on dries and nymphs—and sometimes small streamers—is one of the purest ways of enjoying fly fishing. Donna Smith [48:38], a member of the Orvis Outfitter team and an expert on small stream trout fishing tells us how to go about it. In the Fly Box this week, we have some perplexing and interesting questions, as well as some tips from listeners, including: Do textured lines spook fish when making noise going through the guides? What happened to the Orvis Superfine Fiberglass rods? I have a very fast action 10 weight rod and it's difficult to feel it load with a 10-weight line. Do you think I can put an 11-weight line on it? Any thoughts on de-barbing bonefish and permit flies? How about stocking minnows and crayfish in streams. Do you think it's a bad idea? If I am fishing a bunch of rising fish and a bunch of anglers are standing on the bank waiting for me to leave, what should I do? Why can I catch lots of fish when I go out into the wilderness but not when I am fishing the stocked river that's right in town? If trout are so sensitive to drag on a dry fly or nymph, why do they take a swinging soft hackle? Great suggestions from a listener on how to avoid over-pressuring fish by modifying our behavior. What does Tom think are the most difficult techniques in fly tying? Why are there no sea-run rainbows in Connecticut? Is the casting technique you use to cast poly leaders the same as you would use for an over-lined rod?

Cold turkey quit...But it still wasn't enough.Donna shares how her life began to truly turn towards deeper significance when she allowed God through Jesus Christ to take over her affections and desires.
