Some things are just meant to be. And today's guests are an example of just that. When Young's ceased its London brewing operations in 2006, it looked to signal the end of a historic site where beer has been brewed since at least 1533. The brewery would officially close on 25th September 2006 but, thanks to John Hatch, a nano-brewery was kept on-site throughout construction and development. This ensured that Ram Quarter would remain Britain's oldest continuous working brewery.And two years later in 2008 a new brewery - Sambrook's - was founded just down the road in Battersea. In the decade that would follow, Sambrook's would go from strength-to-strength accelerating its need for new premises. And in the same period, development plans for Ram Quarter continued at pace. Thankfully its owners Greenland Group had developed a vision of the quarter's industrial brewing heritage through discussions with Wandsworth Council and other key stakeholders. Come 2019 Roger Mears Architects was appointed to work with Sambrook's Brewery on its relocation to the Ram Quarter. The project provided a solution to the vacant site addressing the setting through the creation of a working Brewery linked to a Taproom and a Heritage Centre and shop. And in opening its new site, the Sambrook's team would welcome the legendary John Hatch to their team. As someone who had kept brewing going on the site, brewery founder Duncan Sambrook and the team knew that John becoming part of Sambrook's made complete and total sense for all involved. As heritage brewer at Sambrook's John complements a brewing team led by head brewer Harley Williams, an experienced leader that helped oversee the move to the company's fantastic new premises. In this episode we speak to John and Harley about life in Wandsworth, John's storied brewing background, their love and commitment to cask and how, together, they continue to help make Sambrook's a beer destination in the capital that's not to be missed.
Building relationships with elected officials is important for your organization. In 1980, Sam Daley-Harris founded the anti-poverty lobby RESULTS and its sister organization RESULTS Educational Fund. In 1990, he organized the World Summit for Children Candlelight Vigils. In 1994 the first edition of Reclaiming Our Democracy: Healing the Break between People and Government was released. The 30th anniversary edition will be released in 2024. In 1995, Sam founded the Microcredit Summit Campaign along with Nobel Peace Prize laureate Muhammad Yunus and FINCA founder John Hatch. In 2012, Sam founded Civic Courage. Civic Courage helps NGOs train their members to create champions in Congress and the media for their cause. Sam's first client was Citizens Climate Lobby (CCL). In 2019 CCL volunteers in the US and Canada had 4,305 letters to the editor, op-eds and editorials published (up from 65 in 2010), and had 1,700 meetings with members of Congress, Parliament or their staff (up from 106 in 2010). In episode 487 of the Fraternity Foodie Podcast, we find out why Sam left Florida State University and returned to the University of Miami, why it's so important for you to share your own story and for others to share theirs, how you can create champions in Congress and in the media, how we can go back to compromise and collaboration in politics, how we can turn today's youth into engaged voters, how we work with the media for better PR, how we can build better relationships with elected officials, and how we can get transformational advocacy with commitments.

We know we make a difference in our family, and we make a difference on our block. And yes, we make a difference in our community. But I say that when we look to our state and our nation and our world, people don't see the difference they make. It's just crystal clear to me. I'm in on the joke that it's not accurate that we don't make a difference. We do. I just see it in a crystal clear way.Sam Daley-Harris has updated his seminal work, Reclaiming Our Democracy, Every Citizen's Guide to Transformational Advocacy. Originally written decades ago, it reflected the success of the anti-poverty lobby RESULTS. Since then, it has helped guide that effort.RESULTS has earned respect for being a critical piece in lobbying on behalf of the global population of people living in or near extreme poverty. The result has been a 66 percent reduction in infant mortality, saving tens of millions of lives.“This 66 percent decline wasn't only RESULTS, but when it comes to the advocacy, RESULTS was a central leader in the US and then Britain and Canada and Australia and elsewhere in this tremendous progress that volunteers had a real hand in,” Sam says.Why update the book? The answer seems simple to anyone whose read a newspaper in the past decade. Sam matter-of-factly summarizes the context, saying, “Our democracy is in trouble.” He adds, “We need to really get our act together.”Sam explains the meaning of the book's cover image, saying, “We're saying that there's a missing piece in this puzzle, and the missing piece is us.”To do this work on behalf of those living in poverty, Sam deploys a superpower he describes as being in on the joke that what you do to change the world doesn't matter–because it does.AI Episode Summary1. Devin Thorpe, the host of the Superpowers for Good show, introduces his guest, Sam Daley-Harris, an influential figure in social change, the author of Reclaiming Our Democracy, and the founder of RESULTS, an anti-poverty lobby.2. Sam shares his origin story, beginning with a background in music and two impactful deaths that occurred during his high school and college graduations, leading him to ponder his life's purpose.3. His journey shifted when he attended a presentation on ending world hunger organized by The Hunger Project, which inspired him to get involved after realizing hunger solutions existed, but people were not acting on them.4. Sam's advocacy work started with educating high school students about political will and engaging citizenship, subsequently creating RESULTS based on the disconnect he saw between public awareness and political action.5. RESULTS focuses on child survival issues and has been a significant influence in reducing the global child death rate by 66% over the past 40 years through continuous lobbying and advocacy.6. A personal story of success is recounted, where Sam received written gratitude from Jim Grant, the then-head of UNICEF, for the advocacy work RESULTS volunteers did to increase the Child Survival Fund.7. Sam details the reasons for updating his book "Reclaiming Our Democracy" in response to the current challenges faced by democracy and the public's eagerness for ideas on making a difference.8. The puzzle piece on the cover of his book symbolizes that the "missing piece" in democracy is the citizens themselves, awakening to their power to make a difference.9. Sam's superpower, "being in on the joke," refers to his awareness and conviction that individuals do have power and can make a significant impact on state, national, and global issues despite common skepticism.10. The book Reclaiming Our Democracy provides guidance on transformational advocacy, highlighting the importance of organizational enrollment and community building, skill development, and enabling individuals to experience breakthroughs in advocacy.If you want to help reclaim our democracy, please share this post!How to Develop Knowing We Can Change the World As a SuperpowerSam cleverly describes his superpower, knowing that we can change the world, as being in the joke. He explains, “You do make a difference. Don't believe all that stuff that you read or you think that you don't.”Sam shared an impressive example of how volunteers organized using the principles of his book to make a big difference in the U.S. Federal budget for international aid.In 2019, the Global Fund to Fight Aids, Tuberculosis and Malaria had saved 38 million lives since its inception in 2002 to 2019. It was up for a three-year replenishment, and President Trump called for a 29 percent cut to the Global Fund to Fight Aids, Tuberculosis and Malaria. Now, most people would go, “Well, what can you do? You can't fight city hall. President's calling for…” No, no, no, no! RESULTS volunteers–there were others, but results volunteers led in getting hundreds of Republicans and Democrats to sign letters to Secretary of State Mike Pompeo, to the leaders of the appropriating subcommittees in the House and Senate to co-sponsor resolutions, all in support of the full funding for the Global Fund to Fight Aids, Tuberculosis and Malaria.At the end of that year, 2019, two Republicans and two Democrats stood on a stage in Lyon, France, at the Global Fund replenishment and announced that the US Congress would increase the Global Fund by 16 percent and by the end of the year, the president, President Trump signed into law legislation that didn't cut it by 29 percent but increased the Global Fund by 16 percent.That incredible achievement alone will save millions from the triple-health threat fought by The Global Fund.By following Sam's example–and the guidance in his book–you can learn to make your confidence in knowing we can change the world into a superpower that will allow you to do more good.Remember, however, that research into success suggests that building on your own superpowers is more important than creating new ones or overcoming weaknesses.

R-rated movies can be a controversial topic in American Mormon culture. While church leaders have specifically spoken against these movies in the past, there have been no recent official directions to avoid any specific ratings, which creates a large gray area of interpretation. Nick and Dan tackle the tricky subject by discussing the history of movie ratings in the USA, the origins of this quasi-commandment in the Mormon faith, their personal experiences, and results from an informal survey on the topic. Mentioned in this episode: 1. The Hays Code (a.k.a. the Motion Picture Production Code) 2. The MPA (a.k.a. MPAA) and a history of movie ratings 3. H. Burke Peterson's 1980 general conference talk Purify Our Minds and Spirits 4.

Today’s interview with Dr. John Hatch from the Brain Rehab Clinic is all about brain health! From Autoimmune to Dementia & Addiction to Depression, Dr. Hatch shares how powerful our brains can be in both damaging and repairing every aspect of our physical and emotional health.Here a few ideas/topics covered in this podcast: Things the fire together, wire together. And things that fire apart wire apart.The differences of Anxiety Vs Depression in the brain and ways to start building healthier, more positive neurological pathways. Neurogenesis (growing new neurons in the brain) never stops. You can always teach an old dog new tricks.How movement and Gratitude exercises work better than any depression medicine out there. (**Once their brain is working correctly again**) Dr. Hatch- "Yes there is an antidote to both Anxiety and Depression.""People are emotional eaters. Food gives you a dopamine hit. So they’re wiring this negative thing to this sugar, the dopamine hit, together. You should get to a happy state first. That’s why 'Hangry' even exists! And why we’ve wired it into our brain and it persists." "People don’t realize that your environment and what you’re wiring together DOES make a difference. They just assume it’s only in their head."What do you tell yourself when you’re doing the things you love?The Human Brain has the ability to always feel joy. Dr. Hatch gives his thoughts on the Cold Shower Challenge!“In your mind you get to create what you want to feel.”RESOURCESHere is a link to Dr. Datis Kharrazian’s website - (Both Jeff and Dr. Hatch refer several times to Dr. Datis)Links to some Cross-Crawl exercises that Dr. Hatch recommends.https://www.yourtherapysource.com/blog1/2019/06/16/cross-crawl/https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Vjk3wilkX9I Side note- Jeff is the vice president of Wilson Diamonds so when we interviewed Dr. Hatch via Zoom, he kept referencing all the pictures of wedding rings on the wall behind Jeff.

This episode was conceived as a supplement to the previous one, the two-parter 537–538: Being "Good and Mad" within Mormonism, featuring Kristine Haglund. It certainly serves well as that but ended up being more of a full episode than originally envisioned. In particular, the topic is the potent emotion of “outrage” and it’s very strong role in driving much of social media, that then fosters thinking and speaking habits that can cripple our ability to engage with others in ways that might truly be transformative and work for the good of the changes we want to see instantiated. Mormon Matters host Dan Wotherspoon invited his friend and former colleague, John Hatch, to come on the show to read a short essay about outrage that he wrote about five years ago and presented at a Sunstone symposium session focused on moving beyond “black and white thinking.” He reads that piece here, and then the conversation that followed went into explorations that led to additional dives into other related ideas. It’s a terrific essay, accompanied by discussion of some of its themes that we hope you will also find interesting and worthwhile!
Andrée Simon is the President and Chief Executive Officer of FINCA Impact Finance, a global provider of responsible financial services. FINCA’s network of 20 community-based banks offer responsible and affordable loan and saving products that empower low income women and men to take control of their financial future. Previously, Ms. Simon served as VP and COO of FINCA International, returning to FINCA after serving for several years as President and COO of Women for Women International, a humanitarian organization dedicated to financial, educational, and interpersonal support of women survivors of war, poverty and injustice. In 1984, founder John Hatch saw that lack of capital was keeping poor Bolivian farmers poor. Traditional loans were too large and too expensive, and without collateral, the farmers couldn’t borrow. So he came up with an idea; if the farmers formed groups to share a loan and guarantee repayment, they could access the funds they needed to invest in their farming operations. It was the beginning of what we know today as microfinance. In urban and rural areas, and in economies as diverse as Guatemala City and Kitunda, Tanzania, Village Banks allowed those with scarce resources to borrow, invest and grow their businesses. They also allowed women—who were routinely denied credit—to build enterprises that kept food on their tables and their children in school. Remaining true to its original idea, FINCA has become a global network of secure, sustainable microfinance institutions and banks that help low-income families create jobs, build assets and improve their standard of living across the world. FINCA not only impacts the world through finance, they are also transforming their workforce internally to give employees a sense of purpose and ownership. They don’t try to compete with other companies based on perks, instead the compete in ethics and values. “People come here because they know that they are going to be able to take on a lot of responsibility and get chances to take leadership opportunities that they might not be able to get if they were in a large kind of traditional commercial institution. It's pretty entrepreneurial and it's pretty creative for the most part,” Ms. Simon says. She says people come to work for FINCA for 2 reasons, because they want to have a career where they can really learn a lot and because it is an organization focused on social impact, which is a strong motivator for a lot of people. Some trends that Ms. Simon believes will be seen in the future are: A learning leader – Leaders will have to be willing to change themselves and have a learning mindset. This is balanced with the humility to know what you need to know Traditional organizations won’t work well; they need to be nimble to make decisions and share decision making responsibilities All work is global in some way, shape or form There needs to be a diverse workforce What makes a leader successful? The need to want to learn. They don’t wear a ‘gorilla suit’ in the role of a leader The don’t feel the need to have all the answers They have an open sense of inquiry across the organization What you will learn in this episode: What FINCA is doing internally to transform their workforce and become more human How FINCA is allowing their employees to feel like part of the solution How any organization can have a meaningful social impact What is like to be a female CEO What is a CEO gorilla suit and why you should never wear one Where you can ‘meet’ some of FINCA’s clients Contact: LinkedIn Twitter

No two individuals are exactly alike, and no schema can fully capture our particular essence or personality. Yet it is sometimes helpful to speak about different temperaments or "personality types." One of the largest personality type groupings distinguishes between "extroverts" and "introverts," with certain studies recognizing between 30 and 50 percent of people as introverts. Society at large, and Mormonism in particular, seems to have a bias toward extroversion--fitting more easily those persons with larger, perhaps more recognizably adventurous personalities, often seeming more at home in large group social situations. For this reason, we often find more extroverts than introverts in leadership positions, and most cultural forms seem to forget that many people are not extroverts! We are missing a lot! Each personality type has wonderful strengths, and lead individuals to different approaches to life situations and problem solving, and involve preferences and abilities that are distinct and unique--and quite complementary of each other. In this episode, panelists Laura Sullivan, John Hatch, John Shaw, and Greg Nelson--who all self-identify as introverts--join Mormon Matters host Dan Wotherspoon in a wonderful tour of the various ways the world presents itself to introverts. The discussion describes aspects of the introverted personality type and preferences, debunks misconceptions and stereotypes, and highlights introverts' strengths and the areas and types of interaction in which they excel. Each panelist also shares their own stories of how wonderful it has been for them to come to see themselves as introverts and to embrace it rather than constantly trying to bend themselves toward society’s (wrongheaded) "extroversion ideal." After defining introversion in general terms, the panelists share experiences in Mormonism that they experience differently than do extroverts, and how their introversion strongly shapes their interests and spirituality in terrific, wonderful ways that Mormonism would be all the richer for if it were to recognize them, as well as come to better utilize the introvert's gifts. This is a fantastic episode for introverts, parents and spouses and friends of introverts, and church and community leaders!
Beginning shortly after the close of his 2012 presidential bid, Mitt Romney has kept a pretty low profile. However, the recent Sundance Film Festival has forced some renewed public attention on him with the screening of the documentary, Mitt, by filmmaker Greg Whiteley, along with the film’s availability on the popular media streaming service Netflix. The film eschews politics for an intimate look at Mitt and the Romney family during both the 2008 and 2012 presidential runs. In this episode, Mormon Matters host Dan Wotherspoon is joined by political watchers McKay Coppins and John Hatch to discuss the film and the wider legacy for Mormonism created by Romney’s bids for the presidency. They talk about the film, especially the parts that show (or hint at) the Romney family's Mormonism. They also discuss the lasting--and they judge quite positive--legacy for Mormons in national politics and wider culture that is tied in some ways to Romney’s campaigns.
