Domestic violence and narcissistic abuse strips away your sense of self and autonomy. One of the most important parts of the healing process is to rediscover who you are and what you value so that you can learn to trust yourself again.As you become curious about who you were before the abuse and who you would like to be after you heal it can be helpful to have a guide to understand what drives you, what challenges you, and your best attributes.On this episode I have a conversation with my dear friend and colleague, Talya Dash, LCSW about how to use the Enneagram to connect with yourself as you heal from abuse. The Enneagram system is a widely accepted personality model that offers deep insight into our core driving motivations, opening up exciting possibilities in the prediction and understanding of human behavior. Talya describes each of the 9 types and how each one may find themselves susceptible to an abusive relationship and what may motivate each one as they heal.Received my BA in Psychology from Earlham College and Masters in Social Work from Virginia Commonwealth University.

As the United States becomes a land of the diverse, conversations are shifting from "how do we excel in spite of our differences" to "how we come together and thrive because of our differences." The K to 12 educational spaces are also shifting the focus from helping develop skills in academic areas to the best ways to help children develop their sense of agency and sense of identity. In order to propel such cultural transformations, we have to address the relentless and commonplace occurrences of unfavorable, negative, or even traumatic experiences associated with the insidious racial tension and racialized marginalization experienced by minorities.On this episode, author, professor at Spalding University in Louisville, Kentucky and, Dr. DeDe Wohlfarth, discusses the idea of cultivating cultural humility against the backdrop of systemic and structural racism and the work that must be put in by the dominant group to create racially harmonized experiences for all. As we think about raising and educating children to master their Executive Function and demonstrate self-sufficiency, we need to prioritize thinking about racial inequalities and perspective shifts so that empathic support is extended to the marginalized individuals whose experiences of injustices may be hidden.About Dr. DeDe WohlfarthDr. DeDe Wohlfarth earned her bachelor's degree from Earlham College, master's degree from Ball State University, and doctorate degree in clinical psychology from Spalding University. DeDe is a full professor at Spalding University in Louisville, Kentucky. She is also a clinical psychologist in Indiana and Kentucky who specializes in treating children and families who are affected by intergenerational poverty, abuse and neglect, and trauma.Her focus on cultural humility (Tervalon & Murray-Garcia, 1998) intensified over the last decade as she saw the many ways racism, sexism, and heterosexism were traumatizing people. She has since published several articles on diversity, trauma, and cultural humility, and presents regularly on the topic. Despite all this, DeDe knows she makes mistakes every day on her own diversity journey and tries to learn from them.Book:Case Studies in Child and Adolescent PsychopathologyAbout Host, Sucheta KamathSucheta Kamath, is an award-winning speech-language pathologist, a TEDx speaker, a celebrated community leader, and the founder and CEO of ExQ®.

Are you afraid to think about what IT your nonprofit needs? Do you know what to look for in an Outsourced IT provider? Do you have any idea where to start?Join Community IT CEO Johan Hammerstrom and Director of IT Steve Longenecker in part 2 of a new webinar hosted by the Nonprofit Learning Lab.“Managed services” can mean different things to different people, especially when you are just embarking on a quest to find an IT provider. To understand what you need, what a provider is offering – and whether they'll be able to deliver – Community IT Innovators developed a list of basic questions to ask. These questions will help any nonprofit director, no matter what your IT experience and background, have confidence finding an IT Managed Services Provider (MSP). In our 25 years in serving the nonprofit IT community nationally, we've heard lots of stories of IT support that didn't work out. We used our experience to develop this list of 12 questions you can use to vet any managed service provider as you evaluate your needs and their services.Community IT Innovators is pleased to partner with Nonprofit Learning Lab to present this webinar.

This conversation is long overdue. Where is the support for women's rights when we need it. There are too few people that are willing to make known their opinion in the public forum. Nokwanda Dlamini, helps us dissect why some people are more willing to fight for what they believe than others. She offers practical ways that one can be an activist especially if you are not willing to go out on the streets.

She has worked in the Human Capital space for over 5 years and is passionate about de-stigmatising mental health in the workplace. Her experience includes consulting in People and Organisation matters as well as project management. Nokwanda holds a Bachelor of Arts Degree in Psychology and International Studies from Earlham College in the USA, attained through the Shelby Davis Scholarship. Because of her passion for youth development and impact, Nokwanda has been part of the Young African Leadership Initiative and is an African Union Youth Volunteer. Her interests are gender, equity & inclusion and sustainable development. Nokwanda is the current Curator of the Global Shapers Community: Mbabane Hub and firmly believes that we should always speak up about injustice, advocate for social change and find ways to give back. To this end, she is part of the Eswatini COVID-19 National Emergency Response Official Technical Working Group and currently serves on the Board of Directors for Kwakha Indvodza, Eswatini's first male mentoring organisation which specialises in behaviour change interventions with men and boys.

(S5, EP 9) Danielle Tanimura (She / Hers) joined me for this episode as part of the Season 5 theme, "Our Becoming: An LGBTQ Asian Experience." This episode was recorded in mid-April. In this episode, Danielle talked about her family's past leading up to the Japanese American incarceration camps during WWII and the trauma that would affect her family for decades long after that period. She talked about her own interest in digging through her family's history as well as the history of the Japanese community in Chicago. As an open trans woman and mother, Danielle reflected back on the beginning of her journey, and how her experiences as a former judo competitor have made her a vocal supporter for trans athletes in a time where anti-trans laws are targeting the trans community. Check out this episode to learn more about Danielle's journey! Bio: Danielle Tanimura is a queer trans mom, artist, and judo sensei of Japanese American and Bohemian Jewish ancestry. Born and raised in Chicago in an intergenerational and multicultural household, she learned the values of a strong family, preserving history, following her passions, and creating space for intersectional and inclusive communities.After graduating from Earlham College, Danielle worked at the Japanese American Service Committee's Legacy Center Archive while teaching children and adults of all abilities at the Menomonee Judo Club.

Welcome back to Awakening Aphrodite with Amy Fournier! In this episode, I interviewed Cait Corrigan. Cait is a recent graduate from Earlham School of Religion who took on her school's C0VID-19 vaccine policy and was subsequently threatened, bullied and harassed by her classmates, professor/academic advisor and the president of Earlham College when she pushed back against the school's refusal to accept her religious belief exemption for the C0VID "vaccine". After a tremendous heart and spirit-breaking battle, she eventually won and now she's an advocate for the Constitution of the United States, The Bill of Rights, individual human liberties, truth, integrity, anti-bullying and anti-censorship and above all, bravery. We hear a lot about values and many people pride themselves on having “strong” ones but the real test is when you face push-back or disapproval or opposition. Do you still stand by your values? In other words, do you actually live them? If you want to hear of someone that truly LIVES THEIR VALUES, even when things get tough, this one's for you! Cate's story is as remarkable as it is concerning, yet it's truly inspiring to witness the resiliency of the human spirit and a person who truly walks the talk and lives their values!
