A few years back, we decided it would be better to spread homeless shelters out in various places throughout our communities. That, it seems, did not work. So now officials are thinking about creating one massive homeless campus for thousands of homeless people. Is that the right way to go? KSL Newsradio's Amanda Dickson asked her guests on A Woman's View. Her guests this week include Meghan Holbrook, Senior Vice President of Government Relations with Zions Bank, Ginette Bott, President and CEO of the Utah Food Bank and LuAnne Banks, Partner and Event Producer for the Women's Wellness Summit. 

The average Utah family is spending 10% of the total family income on food, and we live in one of the most affordable states. In some states, it's 20%! How do we address this problem? Families are spending more on childcare than they are on food! KSL Newsradio's Amanda Dickson asked her guests on A Woman's View. Her guests this week include Meghan Holbrook, Senior Vice President of Government Relations with Zions Bank, Ginette Bott, President and CEO of the Utah Food Bank and LuAnne Banks, Partner and Event Producer for the Women's Wellness Summit. 

We've seen stories this week about concern over election violence, fires in ballot boxes, and worries over election security. This even as we know how safe and secure our election process is! How do we restore confidence in our election? KSL Newsradio's Amanda Dickson asked her guests on A Woman's View. Her guests this week include Meghan Holbrook, Senior Vice President of Government Relations with Zions Bank, Ginette Bott, President and CEO of the Utah Food Bank and LuAnne Banks, Partner and Event Producer for the Women's Wellness Summit. 

How do we function in this time of deepfakes? How do we know that politician or personality or police officer online is real or a deepfake generated by AI? KSL Newsradio's Amanda Dickson asked her guests on A Woman's View. Her guests this week include Meghan Holbrook, Senior Vice President of Government Relations with Zions Bank, Ginette Bott, President and CEO of the Utah Food Bank and LuAnne Banks, Partner and Event Producer for the Women's Wellness Summit.

Melinda Norris, born and raised in the 70's in Melbourne (Narrn) suburbia, had a far from a typical suburban upbringing. Both her parents, who were immigrants to Australia, kept their family traditions, such as homesteading and growing their food;  we now know these practices as permaculture. One very important tradition that held strong to in the family was caring at home for the young, and the old, and the dying.   Having lived with the dying and attended as many funerals as christenings and weddings, Melinda has been attuned to this part of life for as long as she can remember.   And having had a number of near death experiences herself, Melinda has a familiarity and reverence for the terrain and the journey that we all must take someday. With a curious nature, she was destined for adventure and has lived a full life, exploring, creating, and travelling. Professionally, Melinda is best known as a Festival and Event Producer, Arts Worker, and, more recently, a Tiny House Builder. Today, she's here to discuss a deeply personal topic that resonates with many—our relationship with death and dying. She is a death Doula, a term that means helper, who facilitates, guides, and emotionally supports families. Melinda is a bridge to allay fears, communicate expectations, and gently guide individuals towards grace and peace during the dying journey. Through stories and wisdom from her ongoing reverence for this profound subject, Melinda offers a unique perspective on a conversation increasingly present in the global collective.

Ru is a transgender woman who works as a hospice nurse in Ohio, and since 2018 has been involved as an immersive artists, virtual DJ, and event producer holding weekly events in her psychedelic space called Kaleidosky, which is nominated for Best Music Experience for Raindance Immersive 2024. I had a chance to get a tour of her Kaleidosky 3.0 event space where she showed me how the intuitive VJ system works in creating feedback-loop fractal art in a kaleidoscope that's projected onto a sphere serves as a fully immersive skybox with a floating island in the middle that contains plenty of hang out spots, mini games, and a dancefloor. Kaleidosky has an indie art spirit with a lot of avant-garde performances, with many of them being within the trance or psychedelic trance (aka psytrance) genre, but performers are not limited to this genre. There ends up being an experimental vibe, and happened to have a lot more intimate conversations happening and deep listening happening rather than intensive dancing. Ru doesn't even consider Kaleidosky to be a club, but more of an event space for DJs and VJ artists to experiment with their artistic practice. Ru has featured over 300 different performers since opening the first Kaleidosky in December 2022 and holding events on a weekly basis. I had a chance to catch up with Ru to get a lot more context about her story as being one of the most prolific virtual music event producers in the VRChat scene. Be sure to join the Beat Syndicate group in VRChat and follow her on X (formerly Twitter) for more information on upcoming events. Also be sure to also check out these YouTube documentaries about the clubbing scene in VRChat as well as explorations of gender, and the thriving trans community on VRChat.

Lainie Strouse learned that modelling success at age 13 was a happy introduction to financial success, but that it was also temporary. She learned to do everything she could with the best intentions, that there would be ups and downs, that you do what you can with what you've got. She learned flamenco dancing and serving tables. She learned problem solving, how to understand people, keep a calm head, keep ego out, and to make the best of every situation. These are skills one might need later! Now, as a celebrity event creator, she has learned to pause, listen, come from a respectful place, be adaptable & solution focused, and produce the dream result that her clients really want. Every client & every attendee is special. Do the best you can in every moment, don't pretend to know everything, and ASK. Learning something is always good.Website: https://lainiestrouse.com/
