Karen Downes is a social entrepreneur and an expert in leadership development. She is the Founder and CEO of The Flourish Initiative which seeks to cultivate leadership and realize potential through its specialized programs. She is also the Co-founder of FemmeQ, a series that applies those same principles to the advancement and empowerment of women in the workplace.

Many of us have recognized the need for diversity, but what are the consequences of leaving women out of leadership? Beyond the moral and equitable reasons, there are tangible repercussions when failing to include women. Families, cultures, businesses, and more are hurt by these systemic problems. Karen Downes has seen the effects firsthand and now works to promote progress in her career. She is the Founder of The Flourish Initiative and FemmeQ, both of which work to address critical issues and empower women. She has seen the fruit in both individual and corporate environments, and now she explains her process. Dov Pollack speaks with Karen Downes, the Founder of The Flourish Initiative and the Co-founder of FemmeQ, to go over the importance of bringing women to the table and fixing the global system. The two walk through the work that both organizations do and how they're helping the women of today. They dive into specific topics like interdependency, aromatherapy, and the power of the empty chair. Find out more by checking out this episode of the Next Wave Leadership podcast!

Pastor Steven Henry, Sunday evening

Full Text of ReadingsSaturday of the Twenty-ninth Week in Ordinary Time Lectionary: 478All podcast readings are produced by the USCCB and are from the Catholic Lectionary, based on the New American Bible and approved for use in the United States _______________________________________The Saint of the day is Saint John of CapistranoIt has been said the Christian saints are the world's greatest optimists. Not blind to the existence and consequences of evil, they base their confidence on the power of Christ's redemption. The power of conversion through Christ extends not only to sinful people but also to calamitous events. Imagine being born in the 14th century. One-third of the population and nearly 40 percent of the clergy were wiped out by the bubonic plague. The Western Schism split the Church with two or three claimants to the Holy See at one time. England and France were at war. The city-states of Italy were constantly in conflict. No wonder that gloom dominated the spirit of the culture and the times. John Capistrano was born in 1386. His education was thorough. His talents and success were great. When he was 26 he was made governor of Perugia. Imprisoned after a battle against the Malatestas, he resolved to change his way of life completely. At the age of 30 he entered the Franciscan novitiate and was ordained a priest four years later. John's preaching attracted great throngs at a time of religious apathy and confusion. He and 12 Franciscan brethren were received in the countries of central Europe as angels of God. They were instrumental in reviving a dying faith and devotion. The Franciscan Order itself was in turmoil over the interpretation and observance of the Rule of St. Francis. Through John's tireless efforts and his expertise in law, the heretical Fraticelli were suppressed and the “Spirituals” were freed from interference in their stricter observance. John of Capistrano helped bring about a brief reunion with the Greek and Armenian Churches. When the Turks captured Constantinople in 1453, John was commissioned to preach a crusade for the defense of Europe. Gaining little response in Bavaria and Austria, he decided to concentrate his efforts in Hungary. He led the army to Belgrade. Under the great General John Hunyadi, they gained an overwhelming victory, and the siege of Belgrade was lifted. Worn out by his superhuman efforts, Capistrano was an easy prey to an infection after the battle. He died on October 23, 1456. Reflection John Hofer, a biographer of John Capistrano, recalls a Brussels organization named after the saint. Seeking to solve life problems in a fully Christian spirit, its motto was: “Initiative, Organization, Activity.” These three words characterized John's life. He was not one to sit around. His deep Christian optimism drove him to battle problems at all levels with the confidence engendered by a deep faith in Christ. Saint John of Capistrano is Patron Saint of: Judges Saint of the Day Copyright Franciscan Media

The American Medical Association says there is another public health crisis -- the short supply of life-saving drugs. CBS's Mark Strassmann reports.

10/14/2021 - Karen Zimbelman, Sr. Director of Membership and Cooperative Relations at National Co+op Grocers discusses her career in the cooperative movement. Karen was recently inducted into the Cooperative Hall of Fame for her contribution to the co-op movement over her career of more than 40 years. Karen Zimbelman's cooperative career began in the 1980s at the North American Students of Cooperation (NASCO) where she implemented board of director trainings. Over her 40-year career, she has organized hundreds of trainings benefiting thousands of cooperative board members. Since then, Karen has worked at North Coast Co-op, NCBA CLUSA, Rochdale Institute, and National Co+op Grocers (NCG). After three years as North Coast Co-op's Director of Membership and HR, Karen began her next career phase as a cooperative consultant. During this time, she served as the newsletter editor for the Association of Co-op Educators, developed a tailored co-op orientation manual for food co-op staff, and served as the Executive Director for the Cooperative Grocers' Information Network (CGIN), the Northwest Cooperative Grocers' Association (NWCGA) and Pacific Cooperative Grocers' Association (PCGA). Under Karen's leadership, CGIN became a vital consumer co-op resource housing an extensive library of job descriptions, operation manuals, recipes, board training, and much more. During Karen's time at CGIN, she authored and published a manual to instruct others on How to Start a Food Co-op. This manual became the foundation of Food Co-op Initiative's Guide to Starting a Food Co-op. As the founding Executive Director for two regional cooperative grocers' associations, Karen established and managed regional supply agreements, promotions, training, audits, and other programs. In that role she became a contributor to a movement to form a national food co-op association -– an effort that ultimately resulted in the formation of the National Co+op Grocers. Today, NCG represents 148 food co-ops in 39 states with over 1.3 million consumer-owners, unifying natural food co-ops in order to optimize operational and marketing resources and strengthen purchasing power. Karen's sincerity, intensity, and zeal for the cooperative way has created institutions that will live as a part of her legacy.

Whatever this is… it's temporary.  Maybe it's even normal.  Maybe it doesn't even have to be this way.   Vanessa is the co-founder of MenoLabs, a company focused on women's issues during perimenopause/menopause. She and her friend of 20 years, Danielle Jacobs, created MenoLabs to address what they see as a glaring need in every woman's life.    Vanessa was prompted to action when, at 44, she began her own transition into menopause. Unsatisfied with the lack of support that women experience during this stage of life, and finding the stereotypes of women in mid-life exasperating and insulting, she met the challenges of this stage of a woman's life with creativity.  Named a top ten finalist in the Cartier Women's Initiative, Vanessa believes that for-profits can change the world and make a difference in people's lives with the same passion for mission used by nonprofits — and in fact, should do so if they want to be truly successful.  She is, herself, successful, on a mission to make life better for others and doing it all with authenticity and flair. Catch the latest episode of the Forever F.A.B. podcast on Apple podcasts, Spotify, YouTube, iheartradio, Podbean, and wherever you listen to your favorite podcasts.  For past episodes featuring guest star interviews, beauty product reviews and innovations in plastic surgery, visit ForeverFABpodcast.com.   The F.A.B. Five according to Vanessa Ford: Put down your phone—with purpose. Take daily mini-vacations—no matter where you are, even if only for 5 minutes. Don't over-think exercise.  Just do it. De-stress by prioritizing your favorite sensory input; relax through your senses. Give your body what it needs. You can find MenoLabs on Facebook, Instagram, and on our app MenoLife.

Fan of the show? https://www.patreon.com/newleftradio (Support us on Patreon)! Homlessness is a global challenge, yet municipalities are forced to deal with it as a local issue. It's how they approach change that makes an impact. We're joined by former Commissioner of the New York City Department of Homeless Services Linda Gibbs and professor and former Assistant Commissioner of Policy and Research at the New York City Department of Homeless Services Jay Bainbridge to discuss their new book, How Ten Global Cities Take On Homelessness, and how we can build a world where everyone has a home to call their own. Links https://www.ucpress.edu/book/9780520344679/how-ten-global-cities-take-on-homelessness (Buy How Ten Global Cities Take on Homelessness) https://twitter.com/lindagibbs?lang=en (Follow Linda Gibbs on Twitter) https://twitter.com/jaybainbridge1?lang=en (Follow Jay Bainbridge on Twitter) About How Ten Global Cities Take On Homelessness This book takes on perhaps the most formidable issue facing metropolitan areas today: the large numbers of people experiencing homelessness within cities. Four dedicated experts with first-hand experience profile ten cities—Bogota, Mexico City, Los Angeles, Houston, Nashville, New York City, Baltimore, Edmonton, Paris, and Athens—to explore ideas, strategies, successes, and failures. Together they bring an array of government, nonprofit, and academic perspectives to offer a truly global perspective. The authors answer essential questions about the nature and causes of homelessness and analyze how cities have used innovation and local political coordination to address this pervasive problem. Ten Global Cities will be an invaluable resource not only for students of policy and social work but for municipal, regional, and national policymakers; nonprofit service providers; community advocates and activists; and all citizens who want to collaborate for real change. These authors argue that homelessness is not an insurmountable social condition, and their examples show that cities and individuals working in coordination can lead the charge for better outcomes. About Linda Gibbs Linda Gibbs served as Deputy Mayor for Health and Human Services for New York City from 2005 to 2013. Supervising the city's human service, public health and social justice agencies, she spearheaded major initiatives on poverty alleviation, juvenile justice reform and obesity reduction. Two of the collaborative efforts she shaped to address significant social challenges are “Age Friendly NYC,” a blueprint for enhancing the livability of older New Yorkers, and “Young Men's Initiative,” an initiative addressing race-based disparities facing Black and Latino young men in the areas of health, education, employment training and the justice system. Gibbs also improved the use of data and technology in human service management, contract effectiveness, and evidence-based program development. During her tenure, New York City has been the only top 20 city in the U.S. whose poverty rate did not increase while the national average rose 28%. Prior to her appointment as Deputy Mayor, Gibbs was Commissioner of the New York City Department of Homeless Services (DHS) and held senior positions with the New York City Administration for Children's Services and the Mayor's Office of Management and Budget. About Jay Bainbridge Dr. Bainbridge's research applies statistical and research methods to public sector problems. His current research focuses on trends, causes, and solutions to homelessness, especially with respect to the street homeless. Previous to joining Marist College, he was Assistant Commissioner of Policy and Research at the New York City Department of Homeless Services, and he continues to consult on homeless services policy and planning for national and international cities.  Working with Bloomberg Associates, he recently guided the first systematic street counts internationally in Mexico...

The number of Taiwanese deaths from the incident and massacre was estimated to be between 18,000 and 28,000. The massacre marked the beginning of the White Terror, in which tens of thousands of other Taiwanese went missing, died, or were imprisoned.

For this episode, you'll want to find the nearest fireplace, grab a beer, and get cozy. We have two interviews that both focus around beer history and the stories you may have never heard.  First, Mike talks with Brian Alberts, a Seattle-based beer historian and writer. Brian tells us about some unique moments in beer's history, including the rare reasons why Oktoberfest has been cancelled, aside from COVID-19. He also shares about the tournament bracket he made for Oktoberfest beers, and the surprising beer that came close to winning. Then, Mike talks with Theresa McCulla, the curator at the American Brewing History Initiative at the National Museum of American History. Theresa shares how the Initiative uses beer as a lens to view American history, and how the upcoming event Beer Histories, Now will explore the stories of beer that aren't widely told. Theresa tells us which filmmakers, journalists, brewers, and beer historians will be involved in the event, and gives us a sneak peak of how these people are creating new paths in beer's future by looking at the past. Details and tickets for Beer Histories, Now can be found here. In other news, Jake and Brandy recap the Snallygaster weekend and give us the rundown of upcoming DC beer events, including DC Beer Brewer's Jam. Keep up to date with everything happening at DCBeer.com, @DCBeer on Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram.

Doug is someone I met when we were both students at IPR (Institute of Production & Recording) and we clicked because we were similar in a lot of ways. We both started as rappers who started our label/production companies while we were students. Together put together many shows with our artists and even shared an artist that was part of both of our companies. Doug currently does photography with his company Initiative Media Group and also started "Wingsburg Station" on YouTube where he posts chicken wing related content. In this episode we talk our history, his origins as a rapper, Doug's time in the Navy, and what he's doing currently. If you would like to check out his YouTube channel filled with tons of amazing chicken wing content you can do so here: https://www.youtube.com/c/WingsburgStation/videos Check out his first episode of his "Birds & Bars" show with The Rift: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lvkmWz_QpDw Be sure to follow @initiativemg, wingsburgstation, & @thelayteshow on Instagram and other social media as well.

As we get ready to launch our Impact Initiative, we want to give you a little context regarding what has led us to this point.

On this episode of On the Evidence, we focus on a creative initiative designed to build a more diverse pipeline of researchers who use methods and tools from data science and social science. Earlier this year, Howard University and Mathematica sponsored a free, two-week training for graduate students, postdoctoral researchers, and beginning faculty in the fields of data science and social science. The training was part of a broader instructional program held at 20 sites across the globe called the Summer Institutes in Computational Social Science (SICSS). The Howard-Mathematica SICSS was unique in that it was the first site to be hosted by a historically Black college or university (Howard) and the first to focus on anti-Black racism and inequity. This episode will include the following guests: • Nicole Jenkins, an assistant professor at Howard University in the Department of Sociology and Criminology whose ethnographic research focuses on studying the experiences of Black women in institutions • Jeremy Prim, a Ph.D. candidate in the Department of Sociology at the University of California, Davis whose research focuses on race, policing, exclusionary discipline, and educational outcomes • Felix Owusu, a Ph.D. candidate in public policy at Harvard whose dissertation research centers on racial disparities in the criminal legal system • Naniette Coleman, founder and lead organizer of the SICSS-Howard/Mathematica and a Ph.D. candidate in the Sociology Department at the University of California, Berkeley • Matt Salganik, a professor of sociology at Princeton University who is a member of Mathematica's Board of Directors and the author of Bit by Bit: Social Research in the Digital Age • Akira Bell, a senior vice president and the chief information officer at Mathematica • Wayne A.I. Frederick, president of Howard University and a surgical oncologist whose medical research focuses on narrowing racial, ethnic, and gender disparities in cancer-care outcomes • Paul Decker, president and chief executive officer of Mathematica Read an op-ed in The Hechinger Report by Wayne A.I. Frederick and Paul Decker, the presidents of Howard University and Mathematica, respectively, about the need to increase diversity in research and analytics: https://hechingerreport.org/opinion-a-lack-of-diversity-in-research-and-analytics-is-not-just-unethical-it-is-dangerous/ Read more about the launch of the SICSS-Howard/Mathematica: https://mathematica.org/events/howard-university-mathematica-computational-social-science-institute-on-countering-anti-black-racism A full transcript of the episode is available here: mathematica.org/blogs/inside-an-initiative-to-diversify-the-field-of-computational-social-science

Join the Bonus Accessory crew every Friday as they dive head first into all things Xbox, Xbox Game Pass, & PC gaming. Perfect Dark is looking to be the first of many high profile projects from Microsoft's newly founded studio, the Initiative, but when news recently broke that Square Enix's Crystal Dynamics had been tapped to lend a hand to the new AAAA studio, concern set in amongst some fans. This week, we examine what exactly could be going on with Perfect Dark's development, and if concern should be shown for the reboot considering many studios leaning into outsourcing work to external studios. Is this a move to ramp up production, or could this be the beginning of a possible trend for the young development studio? We try to find the answer. Also, Konami seems to finally be making its way back to premium game development, Capcom sets its focus on the PC market, and much more coming up on the newest episode of the Game Pass Gamecast!

Jackie Goldston talks playing The Secretary on "Doom Patrol", working with Hamish Linklater, living in Atlanta, and the time she fell asleep on the job! About Jackie Goldston:Born and raised in Tustin, California, Jackie got the acting bug in her senior year of high school after she booked a role in a play. With plans to become a doctor, Jackie changed her course and attended Chapman University where she graduated in Communications with an emphasis in Media Performance – Theater, TV, and Film acting. For the past three years, Jackie has played the role of The Secretary on HBO's “Doom Patrol.” Based on comic books, this role gave Jackie and other members of her cast a unique opportunity to create a character from scratch while some other members of the cast referred to their characters' journeys that took place in the “Doom Patrol” comic books. Jackie portrays The Secretary as a professional and efficient minded character who rarely shows emotion and is logical. The Secretary carries reason and in turn, is the influential mother figure that the character of Jane looks up to. Jackie relocated to Atlanta in the late '90s and has been living there ever since. Her first professional role was a national commercial for the mattress company, “Simmons Beautyrest.” Other past credits include guest roles on “Tell Me Your Secrets,” “The Passage,” “Shots Fired,” “Limbo,” and “Ambitions.” Past film roles include “Blended” with Drew Barrymore and Adam Sandler. In “Tell Me Your Secrets,” Jackie had a phenomenal experience with her scene partner Hamish Linklater and is one of her favorite projects to date.In her spare time, Jackie enjoys hikingand adventuring as well as photography, and spending time with family.  Jackie is heavily involved in the charity organization “Be Rich” which vets and partners with a variety of charities to provide donors peace of mind that their money is going where it should. A cause particularly close to her heart is awareness to help those who suffer from Myeloproliferative Neoplasms (MPN), a term for several types of blood cancer that her daughter was diagnosed with years ago. Jackie is an advocate for mental health and is on the committee of a local SAG-AFTRA charity to help actors deal with mental health issues in the Atlanta area. Jackie founded a non-profit theatre company, also in Atlanta, that produced comedies, dramas, and musicals in a town that was void of acting opportunities for adults. During her time as CATCo's Creative Director, she also began a New Playwright's Initiative, a traveling Murder Mystery Troupe, as well as an Old Time Radio Theatre Troupe, all of which encouraged writers and performers of all ages.Jackie's Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/jackie_goldstonFollow the show on social media!                 Instagram: https://instagram.com/thanksforcominginpodcast/                 Twitter: https://twitter.com/tfci_podcast                  Facebook: http://facebook.com/thanksforcominginpodcast/                   Theme Music by Andrew Skrabutenas 

Chief Revolution Officer John DiJulius of the DiJulius Group discusses the 6 steps in launching a successful customer service initiative that lasts. Every company is guilty of coming up with a bunch of great ideas and incredible initiatives in a meeting room only to have them eventually fizzle out and die. This leaves the management team frustrated and cynical and the employees skeptical about what the next program of the year, the flavor of the month, or management by the best seller will be. The following list is how The DiJulius Group ensures our consulting clients are seeing tangible results twelve months, three years, even five years later.  You will learn: The steering committee in charge of creating the initiative must have both leadership and representation from every department and the customer-facing employees The disconnect between the group that gives birth to the project and the rest of the organization Why it's important to have a launch that gets everyone involved and what your story tool should look like Test each employee to make sure they learned and retained the information that was taught during the launch Implementation is a rollout calendar of phases The calendar needs to be tied with training and support materials  The ones hitting the goal need to be celebrated loudly while the ones who are underperforming need to be coached There is no ribbon-cutting ceremony for a world-class customer service organization Keep branding and advertising your customer service culture back to all your employees Resources mentioned: The Customer Service Revolution Podcast  Link to The Customer Service Revolution Conference Oct 5-6 in Cleveland, OH  If you enjoyed this episode, we've created a PDF that has all of the key information for you from the episode.
