If this continues, it will have devastating effects on our economy, our food production and global ecosystems. But there are ways to prevent this from happening. There are things each of us can do to help support the wide variety of pollinators. So join me for episode 239 Feeding the Future-How to Support Pollinators in Your community.

In this episode, Kyla shares her winding path through law school, bar exam setbacks, and eventual transition into entrepreneurship.

But when she didn't pass the bar (twice), everything she thought she knew about success started to unravel. She found herself hiding her education, taking basement jobs in law firms, and feeling like she'd failed. But little by little, she started to realise: she hadn't failed, she was just meant to build something different.“It took therapy. It took affirmations. I used to sit in the mirror and say, ‘You are a lawyer. You are a lawyer.' Over and over. Because I had to believe it before I could build from it,” shared Kyla Denanyoh on episode 27 of the Rhonda Coleman Wandel podcast.Kyla eventually launched her own creative agency and her own voice. Through podcasting, entrepreneurship, and years of unlearning what success was supposed to look like, she built a business that reflects her strengths and her story.Want More Like This?Be sure to subscribe to the podcast on your favourite platform so you never miss an episode.

Embodying Change: Cultivating Caring and Compassionate Organisations
Lydia Poole discusses "The Big Humanitarian Rethink," a digital consultation she launched with Ben Parker to capture diverse perspectives on reforming the humanitarian system during a period of unprecedented funding cuts. The consultation revealed two distinct camps: "reimaginers" who advocate for radical transformation addressing power imbalances, and "improvers" who prefer incremental change while preserving humanitarian principles. Despite these differences, both groups agree on the need to maintain some international crisis response capabilities. As the humanitarian sector navigates this watershed moment, Lydia emphasizes the urgent need to make difficult choices about what to preserve while avoiding a disorderly collapse of vital services. This conversation offers rare insight into a sector at a crossroads, balancing immediate operational demands with the opportunity for meaningful, long-overdue reform.Today's GuestLydia Poole is a humanitarian financing expert with over 15 years of experience. Along with Ben Parker, Lydia co-created "The Big Humanitarian Rethink" citizen consultation, an initiative to collect diverse perspectives on humanitarian system reform following recent funding cuts. Lydia previously wrote an article published by The New Humanitarian addressing the risks of leaving key decisions about humanitarian system reform to a small group of leaders with vested interests.You'll LearnHow Lydia and Ben launched a digital consultation to give voice to diverse perspectives on humanitarian reformThe major divide between "reimaginers" and "improvers" in approaches to humanitarian reformWhat both camps agree on despite their different visions for the futureHow the humanitarian system is responding to the current funding crisisWhy traditional humanitarian financing models may be at odds with localization effortsThe common ground that could unite different perspectives on reformResourcesThe Big Humanitarian Rethink citizen consultation Find Lydia Poole on LinkedIn"Improving or Reimagining?

Wellness + Wisdom | Episode 726 What if the greatest threat to your success isn't the world around you, but the self-sabotaging lies in your mind? Bizzie Gold, Brain Pattern Mapping + Behavior Expert, joins Josh Trent on the Wellness + Wisdom Podcast, episode 726, to reveal the hidden pathways of self-deception, how subconscious patterns distort our sense of identity and drive us to repeat old destructive emotional loops we mistake for “normal” life, and the roadmap to rewiring your brain so you can finally live in alignment with your true potential. "Every person's brain pattern type has a unique set of self-deceptive tendencies. Self-deception is the fuel for everything negative that we experience in our lives. Every loop that we get stuck in, every pain and conflict that we have in a relationship, it's all a byproduct of self-deception." - Bizzie Gold
