With passionate Mars moving into Leo on 18th April, & then opposing Pluto in Aquarius & squaring the sun, we're living in very contentious & reactionary times. Ancestral seeds containing unfinished business & old beliefs are awakening, causing many timelines to meet in the 'here and now.' The awakening of these seeds is urging us to choose to create innovations based on harmonization with the universal plan rather than those that cause destruction & disconnection. My advice: stay rooted in Mother Earth, focus on your own creative path & most importantly, align with the greater good, bringing abundance for all.

In this episode of Cultivating Cultures for the Greater Good podcast, host Michelle Bloom speaks to Professor Kristy Muir is the CEO of the Paul Ramsay Foundation and a Professor of Social Policy at UNSW Sydney Business School on how leaders can cultivate and embed social value into their organisational cultures.   There's a growing societal expectation that organisations – and organisational leaders – should take a more active role in creating social value, not just for shareholders or customers, but for everyone, particularly those most marginalised.   Given trust is at the core of social license to operate and building social value, we will explore the erosion of trust by many Australian organisations and what leaders can do to increase the trust, confidence and the social value of their organisations.   Kristy shares her insights on how senior leaders need to balance their fiduciary responsibility, keeping the organisational purpose at the core, the role of values and how to balance social responsibility in economically difficult times.   Michelle Bloom from ANSTO; Kristy Muir from Paul Ramsay Foundation

Join us this week as the Trudge Trio is here to bring you a new episode. We begin the show with a quick around the horn segment where Shawn makes a brief but very spirited argument on why NCAA March Madness may be the best of all playoffs and championships, college or professional. Corey and Greg wholeheartedly disagree and a short but good discussion arises. We introduce a new segment, where each of us describe one thing that we saw over the past week of someone doing a random act of kindness or witnessing kindness from one person to another. The main segment is all about where money and spirituality mix in the rooms of recovery. Where our donations and self support money goes and the different avenues for that money. Where it is not only useful, but necessary in carrying the message of recovery. We each detail some of our own personal experiences and what we have seen over the years. We also discuss how money can certainly be the root of all evil, and the recovery group is no different. How the primary purpose of carrying the message to the sick and suffering has to always remain the most important. We wrap this segment and the show with how each of us have utilized this principle of financial Independence and responsibility in our own lives. What's good for the recovery group is oftentimes just as important for the individual person in recovery.“There is no remote control to life. You have to get up and change the channel yourself.”             -Anonymous Don't forget to like, share, rate, and download the podcast on all of your listening platforms.

In this episode of Cultivating Cultures for the Greater Good podcast, host Michelle Bloom speaks to Somali Cerise on the art and science of measuring culture. We explore the tools and metrics available to measure culture, off the shelf options, versus a research approach and if it is indeed possible to measure organisational culture at all. We discuss if we are all on the same page in what we mean by culture, what is being measured and the purpose and value of measurement.   Shareholders, investors, regulators are all interested in understanding the culture of an organisation, as poor culture very often leads to poor outcomes for investors and consumers, it impacts on the integrity of the Australian financial markets, and erodes investor, consumer trust and confidence, impacting the wider eco system in which it operates.   Somali shares her practical experience in how to measure and understand this mercurial concept of culture.  Michelle Bloom from ANSTO; Somali Cerise from Elizabeth Broderick & Co

In this episode of Cultivating Cultures for the Greater Good podcast, host Michelle Bloom speaks to Yolanda Saiz, CEO of St Vinnies, NSW about the foundational role that leadership plays in defining organisational culture. Culture is most typically defined as “the way we do things around here”. It is communicated in several ways through symbols and language such how people dress and talk to each other. It is also communicated through the organisational values that are deemed good and inform how people behave and make decisions. But culture is also shaped by the unspoken agreements, the shadow values within the organisation that drive unintended behaviours and consequences and really determine “the way things get done around here.   Yolanda shares some examples of how she and the leadership team at St Vinnies have cultivated a culture for the greater good. She also shares the transformational journey of the “Vinnie's stores”, underpinned by the “no mission without margin” mantra.   Michelle Bloom from ANSTO; Yolanda Saiz from St Vinnies

The annual Greater Good Awards, hosted by the Top of Virginia Regional Chamber, are a testament to the business community's resilience, creativity, and commitment to the greater good. The latest ceremony, filled with inspiring stories and heartfelt moments, highlights the exceptional individuals and organizations shaping the Valley. In this episode of The Valley Today, host Janet Michael welcomed an impressive lineup of guests for an engaging conversation over Zoom. The distinguished panel included Cynthia Schneider, CEO of the Top of Virginia Regional Chamber, Kaleigh Fincham, the chamber's creative Director of Events, and notable community leaders such as Jeremy Shen from YHB (Yount, Hyde & Barbour), Mark Nantz, CEO at Valley Health. Cynthia kicked off the discussion by reflecting on the Greater Good evening, describing how beautifully orchestrated the event was. “Kaleigh and her team outdid themselves with the 'Journey of Excellence' theme,” said Cynthia, illuminating the imaginative centerpiece designed by Kayleigh and her mother. Their ingenuity transformed everyday paper towel holders into floating airplane displays, symbolizing the community's reach and ambition. Jeremy Shen, honored as the Emerging Leader at the Greater Good Awards, shared his awe at the recognition. “I was genuinely surprised and incredibly honored,” he noted. With humility, he emphasized that his success is a collective achievement, crediting his wife and the supportive network around him. Jeremy's rise at YHB reflects this ethos, as he recently stepped into the role of Chief Strategy Officer, guiding the firm's ambitious growth plans across Virginia and Maryland. The conversation also spotlighted the unwavering support from Valley Health, a longtime presenting sponsor of the awards. Mark Nantz expressed Valley Health's dedication to community involvement and support for local businesses. “With 6,200 employees, we feel a strong responsibility to contribute to the community's growth and wellbeing,” he said, underscoring the mutual benefits of robust local commerce. As the conversation progressed, each guest reiterated the importance of community and collaboration. Cynthia praised the chamber's role in fostering a supportive network for businesses and nurturing future leaders. She highlighted the chamber's initiatives, like the upcoming 'Business at the Bloom' and the revived charity golf tournament, 'Top of the Tee,' aimed at reinvesting in community programs. The Greater Good Awards do more than just recognize individual achievements; they celebrate the collective spirit of excellence that defines the Valley. As Cynthia eloquently put it, “Living the greater good is about setting a vision and building a lasting legacy.” Such values are evident in the force of character demonstrated by awardees and nominees alike, who inspire hope and pride in their community. In closing, Janet Michael encapsulated the sentiment of the night: “Our community is really cool. Look at all the people doing these amazing things.” It was a night to remember, celebrating not just success, but the heart and soul that propel the Valley forward. 2025 Award Winners Lauri Bridgeforth, Bridgeforth Photographics | Entrepreneur of the Year Winchester Metals, Inc. | Small Business of the Year Trex Company | Large Business of the Year John Crosen, Winchester Public Schools| CTE Teacher of the Year Jeremy Shen | Emerging Leader Sinclair Health Clinic | Nonprofit of the Year Mark Merrill | Citizen of the Year Nick Nerangis and in memory of Kathy Nerangis | Lifetime Community Impact Award

Hello to you listening in Warsaw, Poland! Coming to you from Whidbey Island, Washington this is Stories From Women Who Walk with 60 Seconds for Time Out Tuesday and your host, Diane Wyzga.Here on Whidbey Island and throughout all of the Great State of Washington we are ever-indebted to the First Nations peoples who lived on this land for thousands of years. Those of us who pay attention to their legacy are keenly aware of the wisdom of the First Nations people grounded in community, nature, reverence, and deep respect for all creatures of Creator. Their words resonate with power, collective action, and working for the greater good.Recently I came across a 25-year old Hopi prophecy which begs to be shared in the hope that this one ordinary person will summon other ordinary people - like filings to a magnet - and build an army of ordinary people actively taking charge, without fear, and committed to the responsibility we owe each other to unbalance the status quo so that we can co-create the dawn of a new world order rooted in kindness and compassion for all.  “You have been telling people that this is the Eleventh Hour, now you must go back and tell the people that this is the Hour. And there are things to be considered…Where are you living?What are you doing?What are your relationships?Are you in right relation?Where is your water?Know your garden.It is time to speak your truth.Create your community.Be good to each other.And do not look outside yourself for your leader.Then he clasped his hands together, smiled, and said, “This could be a good time! Here is a river flowing now very fast. It is so great and swift that there are those who will be afraid. They will try to hold on to the shore. They will feel they are being torn apart and will suffer greatly. Know the river has its destination. The elders say we must let go of the shore, push off into the middle of the river, keep our eyes open, and our heads above the water.And I say, see who is in there with you and celebrate. At this time in history, we are to take nothing personally, least of all ourselves. For the moment that we do, our spiritual growth and journey come to a halt.The time of the lone wolf is over. Gather yourselves! Banish the word 'struggle' from your attitude and your vocabulary. All that we do now must be done in a sacred manner and in celebration.We are the ones we've been waiting for.”NOTE: Prophesy shared by Maira Horta LMFT who in turn received it from Wendy Nickerson, Department Administrator for the Department of Family Medicine and Community Health.   You're invited: “Come for the stories - stay for the magic!” Speaking of magic, I hope you'll subscribe, share a nice shout out on your social media or podcast channel of choice, (including Android, Amazon Music, Audible & Pandora Radio) and join us next time!

Scheme mergers are common enough – but not like this one. The Arcadia case involved a merger of schemes in winding-up, with an overfunded scheme effectively bailing out a scheme in deficit.

Tension is high this time of year, personally and politically, and award-winning University of Michigan Professor Ethan Kross is in town for a special evening to help explore how emotions work and how we can manage them. An international speaker and bestselling author, his first book, Chatter, helped readers understand how to change the "voice" in our head. And now he returns with his new book, Shift, to help readers understand how emotions form, where they come from, and how we can regulate and master them.  From our dinner tables at home to workplace conversations, emotional mastery can feel like a distant goal, but Kross says it's something we should all strive for. How can we learn to harness emotions as sources of powerful information? The term "emotional regulation" has now joined popular terminology, but what does it mean and how can we implement it at any age?  Kross is joined by local celebrated psychology reporter Jenara Nerenberg, author of Divergent Mind and the forthcoming Trust Your Mind: Embracing Nuance in a World of Self-Silencing. About the SpeakersEthan Kross, Ph.D., is one of the world's leading experts on emotion regulation.

Ethan has participated in policy discussion at the White House, spoken at Ted Talks and SXSW, and consulted with some of the world's top executives and organizations. He has been interviewed about his research on "CBS Evening News," "Good Morning America," "Anderson Cooper Full Circle," and NPR's "Morning Edition." His research has been featured in The New York Times, The Wall Street Journal, The New Yorker, The New England Journal of Medicine, and Science.

Is it acceptable for doctors to lie to their patients, or withhold some of the truth, if it's in the patient's best interest? In this episode, hosts and finance professors Jonathan Berk and Jules van Binsbergen welcome back John Ioannidis, professor of medicine at Stanford University, to discuss the ethical implications of concealing the truth in the medical world, even when it's for the greater good. The conversation touches on the importance of building and maintaining trust in healthcare, cases where that trust has been tested or fractured, the paternalism mindset in medicine, the potential biases in medical research funding, and why building back trust in healthcare is a steep climb.  Find All Else Equal on the web:  https://lauder.wharton.upenn.edu/allelse/All Else Equal: Making Better Decisions Podcast is a production of the UPenn Wharton Lauder Institute through University FM.

In this episode I dive into the differences between dopamine and oxytocin and how these hormones impact our sense of fulfillment and drive.While dopamine delivers short-lived rushes of personal achievement, oxytocin fosters a deeper, sustained sense of satisfaction derived from positively impacting others.

The Gallup Q12, as it's commonly called, is a set of 12 questions designed to measure employee engagement. Not satisfaction. Engagement. Why is that distinction important? Because satisfaction is surface-level—think free snacks in the breakroom—but engagement digs deeper. It's about your team's emotional connection to their work and their belief in the purpose of what they're doing. These questions came from years of research by Gallup, particularly detailed in their book "First, Break All the Rules" by Marcus Buckingham and Curt Coffman, which examines what makes employees thrive. And guess what? Engaged employees don't just work harder—they work smarter, stay longer and bring their A-game to your organization every day.

Questions about whether the disciples would die for a lie if they believed it was for the greater good, how to start a conversation with an Uber customer who's on his way to a Hindu temple, and what to say to someone who thinks there's no way to know if God exists.   Would the disciples die for what they knew to be a lie if they believed the lie was essential for persuading the world to morally reform itself for the greater good? What would have been a good way to start a conversation with an Uber customer who told me he was on his way to the local Hindu temple? What would you say to someone who thinks God is a personal belief in your head and that there's no way to know if there is a God or not?

In this episode, Joe interviews Ariel Clark: Anishinaabe attorney and co-founder of the Psychedelic Bar Association, a national association of lawyers involved in the highly-regulated ecosystem of psychedelic law. She talks about ethics: How do the different societal norms of each lineage we carry interact with each other? What is the cultural framing that informs those ways of knowing, and do we align with it? Is there a code of ethics we can all agree on? As the rush to legalize psychedelics increases, Clark finds herself at a crossroads of wondering if our actions are really of service to the greater good: Can the overculture legalize psychedelics effectively, while doing less harm to Indigenous culture and the medicines themselves? She discusses: The challenges of working in psychedelic law with all of the other factors at play: How do you ethically support a client? The idea that these medicines can have agency – even the synthetic ones Shifting from a Western mind state of “what are my rights?” to an Indigenous frame of: “What are my responsibilities?” Her story of healing from debilitating back pain with psychedelics and spiritual alignment The need for public education to be at the center of future legislation attempts and more!

As we wrap up “The Greater Good” series, Pastor Kevin breaks down scripture from Titus 3 on serving others. When you love people who can't do anything for you, that's when God shows up. If we see a need, we need to take the lead to live a life that's productive for His Kingdom.

One way to feel more thankful for things is to imagine life without them. We explore a practice shown to help you see the bright side, even when you feel down.We know gratitude is good for us, but what if we're struggling to feel it? This week's guest, author and podcast producer Stephanie Foo, finds herself missing her close-knit “chosen family” in California since moving to New York. Foo tries a practice called mental subtraction, where she imagines her life without New York. Later, gratitude researcher Ernst Bohlmeijer  shares how gratitude practices can reshape our emotions and possibly our whole outlook, and how the Mental Subtraction of Positive Events practice can be antidote to taking things for granted.Practice: Take a moment to think about a positive event in your life. It could be a career or educational achievement or a special trip you took. Imagine yourself back in the time of this event. Think about the circumstances that made it possible.  Ponder on the ways in which this event may never have happened. For example, if you hadn't learned about a certain job opening at the right moment.  Write down all of the possible events and decisions - large and small - that could have gone differently and prevented this positive event from occurring.  Imagine what your life would be like now if you had not experienced this positive event and all the fruits that came from it.  Remind yourself that this positive event did happen and reflect upon the benefits it has brought you. Allow yourself to feel grateful that things happened as they did.  Find the full Mental Subtraction of Positive Events practice at our Greater Good in Action website: https://ggia.berkeley.edu/practice/mental_subtraction_positive_eventsToday's guests:Stephanie Foo is a radio producer and author of the book What My Bones Know: A Memoir of Healing from Complex Trauma.Learn more about Stephanie and her book: https://www.stephaniefoo.me/Follow Stephanie on Twitter: https://twitter.com/imontheradioFollow Stephanie on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/foofoofoo/Follow Stephanie on Facebook:https://tinyurl.com/yx6pwdnfErnst Bohlmeijer is a psychology professor who studies gratitude at the University of Twente in The Netherlands.Learn more about Ernst and his work: https://tinyurl.com/2p92p6vnScience of Happiness Episodes like this one: Four Great Gratitude Strategies: https://tinyurl.com/2p9buvkd Tips for Keeping a Gratitude Journal: https://tinyurl.com/3jdbe52u Five Science-Backed Strategies for More Happiness: https://tinyurl.com/bd4ussjt Transcript: https://tinyurl.com/4r84778r

In week three of our series “The Greater Good”, Pastor Jeff taught us how to lead the way in hospitality and kindness. Whatever your vocation, ministry is your calling, because God went out of His way for us so that we can go out of our way for others.

Our story tonight is called The Secret Stair, and it's a story about a costume party on Halloween night at the Inn. It's also about the bonfire down by the lake, a whiskered face at the window, a mystery waiting in the library and a reminder of what is sacred and worth your attention and what is not. We give to a different charity each week, and this week, we are giving to Greater Good on the ground in Florida and North Carolina, delivering emergency relief in the devastating aftermath of Hurricanes Helene and Milton.
