As the devastating effects of climate change take hold around the world, young people are demanding action from global leaders and, increasingly, taking action themselves. Ask a teenager or young adult which issues they think are most pressing in the world today, and climate will often top the list. One of the goals of our Creating Citizens initiative is to provide a forum for youth to meet and learn from peers and civic leaders about the complex and often controversial issues that are important to them. So it is with special pride that we present a panel of young climate activists discussing their own work and the power of youth to address the climate crisis and issues of racial and social injustice around the world.

I remember when I was first seeking a way for BioLight to somehow become involved in a scientific study and have our products validated by research. It didn't take long for my path to entangle with today's guest, Elias Arjan. At the time, Elias was overlooking an arm of Biostrap called Biostrap Labs, which he himself developed to help biohacking and wellness brands run their products through a valid research protocol -- utilizing the biometric data from Biostrap wearables -- to provide scientific evidence to support their own products. As you will learn from Elias, the biohacking landscape is tantamount to the wild wild west where there just isn't much regulation. Sound similar to the supplement industry? On today's episode of The Red Light Report, Elias talks in depth about his passion for evidence-based biohacking and how that would help combat misinformation and over-hyped marketing, ultimately empowering the consumer. He is also a bonafide expert in all things wearables and biometrics, so he shares his knowledge in these areas as well. Elias Arjan is is a business professional, health and wellness educator, and biohacker. As a serial entrepreneur, Elias has started his own businesses and worked in and consulted for Fortune 500 companies, startups, and nonprofits.Elias is the CEO of Business Brain, a strategic consulting firm that serves brands in the health, fitness, and biotech industries. As the Executive Producer of Bioscience LA TV, he is working to connect the ecosystem of bioscience companies in LA county and beyond. Elias is also a sought-after educator/speaker on wearable technology, biometric science and wellness optimization; as well as the former Senior Vice President of Biostrap. He has been featured in LA Magazine, NBC's California Live, LA Business Journal, and multiple podcasts. Elias works to optimize individuals and companies as a consultant and trainer and has been a leading proponent of evidence-based biohacking in Los Angeles and beyond. As the Executive Director of the Biohackers Collective, Elias is working in conjunction with organizers in 33+ cities worldwide to make Biohacking more accessible. Elias has been featured in international publications for his work in the health, technology, and biohacking sectors. Elias is a regular contributor to the International Sport Science Association (ISSA), guiding fitness professionals on how to best use wearable technology to improve outcomes for themselves and their clients.Get ready for Elias to enlighten you about the world of biohacking and help you become a more critical consumer. Enjoy! - Dr. Mike Belkowski & Elias Arjan discuss the following: His background and how he became an educator in the biohacking world Evidence-based biohacking and his vision for approaching validation "Doing the science" and how you can validate claims made about your product Combating misinformation Placebo vs reality and anecdotal evidence for products Wearable biometric devices and the differentiation between them Sensors and how different types can dictate their accuracy in wearables How red light penetrates 10x deeper then green light Molecular sensing as the next phase of measuring biometrics Taking initiative in controlling your own health How to cut through the marketing and know what device to choose How supplement labels might not always contain what they say EMF and how the electromagnetic spectrum works Biostrap labs and its origins in his own experimentation Biohacks he currently employs - Learn More About & From Elias Arjan: LinkedIn - Elias Arjan Instagram - @eliasarjan Websites: eliasarjan.com & Business Brain - Watch this episode on YouTube: https://youtu.be/axwr1KlsXug - To learn more about red light therapy and shop for the highest-quality red light therapy products, visit www.biolight.shop - Stay up-to-date on social media: Instagram YouTube Facebook

Big Lou welcomes Coach Bill Pintard in The Sports Lounge! Few people in baseball today can boast as impressive and varied a record as Bill Pintard. As Manager and Executive Director of the Santa Barbara Foresters, Bill has led the college summer-ball team to NINE national championships, most recently this year! The Santa Barbara Foresters won their ninth NBC World Series championship with a 14-2 win over Lonestar Baseball. Bill Pintard's teams have reached the NBC World Series an all- time record 20 consecutive seasons. Since taking over the team in 1995, Bill has won more than 800 games and 18 California Collegiate League titles and is believed to be the winningest coach in Collegiate summer-ball history. In 2009, he was given a prestigious scouting honor, the Sparky Anderson Award by the Association of Professional Ballplayers for his ongoing contributions to baseball player development. Finally, along with a busy family and baseball life, Bill is the director of the Foresters' Hugs for Cubs, a year-round support program for children and families battling cancer and other serious illness. In 2014, he was named to the NBC World Series Hall of Fame. More than 40 former Foresters have reached the Major Leagues, along with another 300-plus who have signed minor-league contracts. Bill doesn't confine his baseball to the Foresters. He has been a Major League Scout for 18 years, starting with the Yankees in 1997 before moving to the Angels in 2002 for 10 seasons. He returned to the Yankees in 2013, as scout focusing on amateur high school and college players. Bill is a longtime resident of Carpinteria, where he and his wife Kris have raised four children, Ethan, Eric, Brittany and Kelby. Sponsor a Hugs for Cubs kid! Help the Hugs for Cubs help local families battling cancer by sponsoring a Hugs for Cubs kid to travel to a Major League game each summer. The Hugs for Cubs is the Foresters cancer-survivor support program, aimed at young people and their families battling illness. It was founded by Eric Pintard, the former Foresters pitcher and coach who himself battled cancer for many years before passing away in 2004. We remember Eric and try to pass on his spirit and courage and attitude to anyone who needs our help. http://sbforesters.org

Over time many property owners in New Orleans have replaced green spaces in favor of concrete and other impervious surfaces in order to gain more parking and reduce yard maintenance. The amount of hard surfaces contributed to serious flooding problems across the city. Now a program incentivizes homeowners to replace the pavement with grass and other permeable materials to allow rain to soak into the ground and reduce stormwater runoff. The Front Yard Initiative is explained in this episode with Dana Eness, Executive Director of The Urban Conservancy. Dana discusses how the process empowers property owners to design their front yard, the growing understanding of green solutions among New Orleans residents, and the success of the program, which captures 2 million gallons of water per year. waterloop is a nonprofit media outlet made possible in part by grants from the Walton Family Foundation and Spring Point Partners. waterloop is sponsored by Hydraloop, the innovative water recycling system for homes and businesses.

Have you ever wondered if the product you pick up at a store to slather on you or your child's skin is safe? Today's consumers must go far beyond reading a label. We now require trusted and reliable sources to keep us safe from marketing names and terms that sound or look and environmentally friendly, but maybe anything but. Our guest today, Amy Ziff, is the founder and Executive Director of Nontoxic Certified & the MADE SAFE® certification; America's first comprehensive certification program that screens out known toxic ingredients in everything from baby and bedding to personal care products, cosmetics, and cleaners. MADE SAFE was the first and only seal that applies to all non-food consumer product categories. Their banned list includes a rigorous 6,500 substances that are prohibited in any product earning the coveted MADE SAFE certification. A mom and prior self-proclaimed weekend toxicologist and label sleuth, Amy turned the industry on its head by demanding accountability from the brands we should trust. Amy explains why we can't rely on the government to protect us and our families and what you should look for and avoid to shop safely and stay healthy.
Bruce Smith peered into the future and saw a different path for rowing—one that transcended old perceptions of the sport: that rowing on water is for the rich, and rowing in the gym is for Type A personalities with something to prove. And that vision led him to create Hydrow, an immersive in-home rowing experience unlike anything that the world had seen before.In his talk with Jesse, Bruce describes his entrepreneurial journey, starting with setting up shop in Boston and how the city proved to be both a fitting backdrop and a powerful catalyst for early growth. He gives an insider's look at rowing culture and how it led him to pursue a more inclusive path. He breaks down his company's process for designing machinery, software, and content synchronously. He advocates for rowing's holistic health benefits. And he offers a peek into how Hydrow was able to develop its now-patented approach for broadcasting content live from the water. Throughout, it's an inspiring look at how an insider disrupted the status quo to bring a beautiful human experience to everyone.(3:28) Launching Hydrow in Boston(6:21) Why in-home rowing needed, and deserved, a deeper connection to on-water rowing(8:50) “The best things in life should not be reserved for elites.”(15:45) Building the machine, software, and content in parallel(22:32) Ripples of the future: what lies ahead for live outdoor reality(27:16) Navigating a successful omni-channel strategy (31:11) Safeguarding the mission to create the most beautiful human experienceGuest BioBruce Smith is a lifelong entrepreneur and an accomplished rower and coach.

A strong public health infrastructure is required at the national, state, territorial, and local levels to carry out critical programs and respond to emergencies. How can states move from a reactive approach of ad hoc crisis funding to a proactive investment in nimble, cross-cutting systems? How are states that are undergoing public health transformations positioned to leverage new funding for core priorities like data modernization? In our latest episode, Dr. Steven Stack (Commissioner, Kentucky Department for Public Health) and Janet Hamilton (Executive Director, CSTE) share the latest insights from the field. They address short and long-term needs that public health departments must consider as they create the next generation of public health infrastructure—from laboratories to workforce development, to community partnerships, data systems, administrative readiness, and more. Together, building this infrastructure can be the rising tide that lifts all services across the public health system.

Pardon me while I drop my first ever LIVE episode into this space! And, wouldn't you know it, my guest and I cover all the Conversations With a Wounded Healer favorites: community, connection, spiritual anchors, resiliency, the white-washing of mental wellness spaces, and the importance of therapists engaging in their own work (natch). What a joy to sit beside Camesha Jones, LCSW, at Sista Afya Community Mental Wellness, her gorgeous social enterprise located in Chicago's South Shore neighborhood. Founded in 2017, Sista Afya is dedicated to providing low- to no-cost mental wellness services that center the experiences of Black women. Let's chat about why centers like it are important––and, believe me, there aren't many places like Sista Afya, sadly. “Sometimes people keep saying this BS that Black people don't want to engage in therapy,” says Camesha. Ah, yes, the narrative about which communities are and aren't receptive to supportive healing, created by those outside the community to stigmatize and keep critical infrastructure like therapy from reaching those who need it. Camesha flatly refutes the trope. Camesha has built a center that's community focused down to its core. The name, for instance, combines sista, a term of endearment used between Black women, and afya, a Swahili word that means to be healthy, free from psychological and physical illness. In her own life, Camesha takes continual care to address challenges inherent to living with bi-polar disorder. She offers hope to folks, including fellow therapists, with similar experiences, modelling self-awareness and practicing sustainable self-care while running a successful business. “I go to therapy. I go to my psychiatrist. I take my meds. I do all the things [ ] and that's part of why I call myself a mental illness survivor,” she says, adding, “we're dealing with some of the same things, we're all dealing with some of the same things. It doesn't mean that we can't be effective in this work.” GUEST BIO Camesha Jones, LCSW, is a Social Worker, Entrepreneur, and Community Mental Wellness Advocate who serves at the intersection of culture, community, and social justice. Camesha strongly believes in eliminating barriers in the mental health field that people of diverse cultural backgrounds experience by creating affordable and accessible care that centers on the well-being of the whole person. Camesha is the Founder and Executive Director of Sista Afya Community Mental Wellness. “WHOLE WOMAN, WHOLE COMMUNITIES” FUNDRAISER INFO To donate to Sista Afya's campaign, please visit: https://donorbox.org/saccwholewomen/fundraiser/sarah-buino I'm excited to support Sista Afya's Fall campaign, “Whole Women. Whole Communities.” This year, Sista Afya Community Care has offered 650 free therapy sessions and over 35 community workshops and classes that have collectively served over 200 women. The goal is to raise $35,000 to continue offering free mental wellness care to Black women in Chicago. They need your support to sustain the progress they've made so far. Sista Afya continues to remove barriers to accessing mental wellness care in their communities. Will you contribute to the annual year-end campaign by giving $50, $100, $250, or whatever amount you can towards our goal of $35,000 to help deepen the impact in providing free mental wellness care for Black women? The campaign will run the entire month of December, but make sure to donate now.

On this week's episode we sit down with Erin Morse, Founder and Executive Director of Midwest Animal ResQ, to discuss ethical rescue practices. We also discuss the reason the Gingerich puppy mill rescue involved a few large rescue groups rather than many small organizations. And we attempt to untangle for advocates the red flags of fake rescues, unethical rescues, and rescues who have simply lost sight of the cause of saving lives in their adoption policies and practices. If you have discovered that it has become increasingly difficult to navigate the rescue world on yours or your loved ones' journey towards choosing adoption, then this episode is for you!To learn more about Midwest Animal ResQ, go here: https://www.midwestanimalresq.org/If you have learned something new from this podcast, or from any of our materials, please consider making a tax deductible end-of-year contribution to our nonprofit, here: https://bailingoutbenji.com/donate/Support the show (https://bailingoutbenji.com/support-us/)

Today's episode of From What If to What Next is about care. Care has been very much on our minds of recent. COVID has highlighted how vitally important care is and yet how undervalued it is. It is so often seen as being the domain of women, and around the world it is often either underpaid, or unpaid work. As the populations of the Global North live longer and longer, and as young people are unable to afford, often, to leave home, it tends to often fall to women to care for both the younger and the older generations simultaneously, what is sometimes called the ‘Sandwich Generation'. Many people are happy to stand on their doorsteps and clap for those who provide the care in our society, but not to really value care, not to campaign for it to be truly valued. These days of COVID have the potential to be a real watershed moment. So in today's episode, with two extraordinary women, we're asking "what if care work was valued?” This is an episode that might very well lead to inner paradigm shifts... Kavita Ramdas is a recognized global advocate for intersectional gender equity and justice. She currently serves as the Director of the Women's Rights Program at the Open Society Foundations. She also serves on a few select non-profit advisory boards, the board of trustees of the Rockefeller Brothers Fund, and the board of directors of GRIST, a publicly supported journalism non-profit focused on climate justice. Ai-jen Poo is an award-winning organizer, author, and a leading voice in the women's movement. She is the Executive Director of the National Domestic Workers Alliance, Director of Caring Across Generations, Co-Founder of SuperMajority, Co-Host of Sunstorm podcast and a Trustee of the Ford Foundation.

She now inspires audiences across the country with a powerful message of hope and triumph. She is the author of the award-winning book, The Circle of Fire which tells the story of how Justina's life was changed forever when fire swept through her home, March 7, 1999. The loss of her 22- devastating experience of third-degree burns covering 55 percent of her body affected the entire family. She is also the author of 8 other literary works. From the ashes of fire, a new hope has emerged. She is the Founder and Executive Director of The Amos House of Faith, a non-profit organization, established to provide post-burn month-old twin son, Amos, the severe and lasting injuries of her other twin son, Benjamin, and her own support to children and families affected by burn trauma. She is a supporting actress in the award-winning faith-based movie We Are Stronger and the highly anticipated upcoming TV series Breaking Strongholds.
In today's episode, I have the absolute delight of talking with Jennifer Ching, Executive Director of the Northstar Fund here in NYC. Northstar is a social justice fund that supports grassroots organizing led by communities of color building power in New York City and the Hudson Valley.I was excited to talk with Jenn about the report that they released, in partnership with the New York Foundation, called Streets To Statehouse. The first part of the report shares the lessons learned from two 2019 statewide campaigns that were led by grassroots organizations working in coalition with broader policy and advocacy networks. The second part of the report examines how grassroots organizing is not only essential for building campaigns from outside City Hall or Albany, but is also critical in building a more robust multiracial democracy. Jenn talks about the purpose and focuses of the report in our conversation, and she does a fantastic job of articulating the “why” and “how” behind the research. But I wanted to share my own reasons for why it felt so important to me to have a conversation about the report.First, I am always on the lookout for tools that the growth stage-organizations that I work with and care so much about can use to build their capacity for true and lasting impact. So when I come across a report that functions like a how-to guide for creating systems change, I get really excited. Jenn and I talk not only about the actual how-to lessons that the report shares, but also how organizations - whether they use organizing as a primary vehicle for creating change or not - can use the findings as a tool. Which relates to the second theme that Jenn and I touch on, which is near and dear to my heart. True, lasting social change requires looking beyond the walls of our own organizations and mission and working in partnership and collaboration with other groups - especially those that use different methodologies. And it requires centering the lived expertise of people most impacted by the problems we're working to solve. Whether you're a direct service provider or an advocacy group, collaborations and networks must be part of your vision for impact. This report introduces some concrete ways to plug in to systems work.Finally, Jenn and I talk about how long true impact takes, and how it's incumbent on funders to invest in models that may take longer, but that create more tectonic shifts in our society. I always truly love talking with Jenn, and this conversation is no different. It's a great blend of the why and the concrete - enjoy!
Something you may not know about me is that I'm a foster care Nana! My youngest son and his wife have been foster parents for about two years now, and seeing them walk this journey has helped me learn so much about the foster care community. A lot of us are aware of foster care overall, but most of us don't really understand what happens in foster care and the dynamics that occur when a family says "yes" to this journey.That's why I'm excited to share my conversation today with my friend Jami Kaeb, Founder and Executive Director of The Forgotten Initiative, a ministry that exists to see people everywhere supporting the foster care community and experiencing Jesus together. I love that! Adoption, foster care, and advocacy were not actually part of Jami's dreams for her life, but God changed her heart when He made her aware, and now she is passionate about helping others become aware too! Jami also is mom to seven children (five through adoption).In this episode, Jami shares about the unique journey God led her on to discover the importance of foster care, how that led to a door being opened for The Forgotten Initiative to begin, how each of us can take a first step to supporting foster parents and the foster care community overall, a powerful story of when a friend showed up when she and her husband needed it most, and a whole lot more. This was such a great conversation and I hope this episode helps you become aware because, in Jami's words, awareness leads to action!Show Notes: https://jillsavage.org/jami-kaeb-70/
Until very recently, the prevailing wisdom cautioned that transitioning to a clean energy economy would be extremely expensive, and therefore only possible if undertaken slowly. New research upends that thinking—when it comes to going green, the faster we go, the cheaper it will be.

This episode is sponsored in part by Humane Network and Doobert.com. Dr. Jaquie Rand is currently using research to tackle issues around community cats and the criminalization of Trap, Neuter, Release practices in Australia. After navigating significant resistance for over a year and a half, she was able to launch a research project to negate arguments about disease spread by cats, the impact of cat predation on native wildlife, and the benefits of sterilization. In the midst of COVID, data collection turned to neighborhood surveys which revealed paradigm-shifting data that challenged notions about the human element in the community cat equation. Stacy and Dr. Rand discuss barriers that are faced by cats' owners⸺especially those with limited financial resources⸺to access spay and neuter procedures. They chat about the value of research in finding possible solutions, prioritizing municipal support based on need, and educating stakeholders to make TNR a more viable option.
