INVERSITY™ takes the "division" out of traditional DEI programming by offering a genuinely INclusive way to communicate, learn, and create an environment vital to an organization's success.

Karith Foster is a comedian, speaker, television and radio personality, actress, author, and entrepreneur. In this episode, we are talking about identity and doubling down. When we attach so heavily to our identities, we can easily get lost in details that might not be as important as the feel at the moment. Our identities are things we really hold dear, but we are always changing so much it is hard to even pin down an identity. However, in our world, today, being attached to an identity can be seen as pretty important, and that has really kept many people from accepting change. For those of us who have experienced addiction, we have all stood by our addict identities when it may have been easier to relinquish that identity. Where else do we do this? How can we approach our identities as fleeting and ever-changing? There is the 5 by 5 rule which states if it won’t matter in 5 years don’t spend 5 minutes being upset about it. Karith has graciously invited Recover Yourself fans to take a perfectionism assessment at www.karith.com/quiz On Dec 30th you can attend her Give Yourself the Gift of G.Y.S.T. (get your shit together) https://www.karith.com/seminar.html Learn more about her Inversity Solutions training for institutions and Corporations www.InversitySolutions.com Get her book You Can Be Perfect or You Can Be Happy https://www.amazon.com/You-Can-Be-Perfect-Happy-ebook/dp/B089G8JM9P/ref=cm_cr_arp_d_product_top?ie=UTF8 And definitely support her non-profit organization: F.R.A.M.E. (Foster Russell Alliance for Meaningful Expression) www.FosterRussell.org Questions for groups: Where did you double down before you sought help? What in your life are you still doubling down to save? Although growth is difficult, when we do accept its necessity, we find strength and the ability to continue to grow. What has acceptance, and a more fluid idea of your identity, offered your life? We may have definitions, and preconceived ideas, about sober people. What are yours? How did those ideas keep you out there? How are they continuing to dictate your recovery? As my work suggests I am always looking to recover myself completely and my aim is to help others recover themselves. I see a client for a total of 4 sessions which is designed to launch self-directed lives and separate us from the constant draw of codependency. These start with my doing a portrait of my client. The portrait is an intimate experience, these open a vocabulary to trauma and are healing. This process is not for everyone and if you are not ready I will not work with you. It is important that you are ready to step into yourself and stop playing a victim cursed by things around you.

Continuing with our #CheckTheBox theme for this season, special guest Karith Foster joins us to discuss two boxes we tend to put people in when it comes to the race conversation: Victim or villain. In reality, those labels aren't so cut and dried, especially when you introduce intersectional identities into the mix. Karith Foster is a comic turned motivational speaker, TV & radio personality, actress, author, blogger and entrepreneur—and her new book, 'You Can Be Perfect or You Can Be Happy,' teaches readers basic concepts for embracing life's messiness.

How can we take a stand and let our voices be heard in a crowd where we are treated like a minority? Be a leader! In this coffee with Shanda, Karith Foster joins in to tell us exactly why the labels people put on us are nothing compared to the labels we put on ourselves. They’ll push us out of our comfort zones, and help us see the skills and talents lurking underneath which can empower us to let go of our fears and take a brave stand. Together, let’s raise our cups and savor the fact that we, too, can all be leaders in our own ways no matter what skin color we are wearing.    “The biggest stand people can take is valuing yourself.

You can be perfect, or you can be happy. Karith Foster's best friend uttered these words to her while Karith was struggling with new motherhood and breastfeeding and the crushing pressure to be perfect. They struck a chord, and launched Karith down a path of self-exploration and discovery and ultimately the realization that the quest for perfection is futile and impossible, but happiness is not. Join us for a lovely chat with a woman who cares deeply that you are happy. Karith is a Humorist, motivational speaker, TV & radio personality, actress, author, blogger and entrepreneur and mother of two girls (20 months apart!)

Often the only person of color in her childhood classrooms, stand-up comedian Karith Foster spends a lot of her time speaking at universities such as Stanford and Oberlin about taboo subjects in a constructive way. She hates labels and the boxes they can put us in, which is why her take on diversity training actually focusses on “INversity” – meaning inclusion and introspection – mixed with a healthy dose of humor. In this episode, Karith talks about what it was like to transform a hostile audience in a jam-packed hall at Oberlin into one welcoming of different perspectives. We also discuss her work as an on-air radio personality on the controversial Don Imus In the Morning show following his comments about the women’s basketball team at Rutgers University and her appearance in the documentary “Can We Take a Joke?,” which garnered support from strange bedfellows such as the American Civil Liberties Union and the Charles Koch Institute. Karith believes firmly that people from across the political spectrum have good ideas, and the fact that “just because you are not on that side does not mean you shouldn’t think it’s a good idea too” is “insanity.” Unsurprisingly, in Karith’s words, she often feels “like a political alien.” We hope she felt right at home here at Sanity!

New York-based comic Steve Marshall plays all the big clubs across the country. He's been featured on national television platforms such as CBS News and CNBC, plus Hot Off the Grill With Bobby Flay and NBC's Dare to Dream. Riffing relentlessly on topics such as his negative Jewish family and why one should never make fun of Chinese people who work in a Chinese restaurant, Marshall's no-holds-barred approach will have you laughing and gasping in equal doses."THE MARSHALL PLAN - Bad behavior makes for good comedy."That's the way the Florida New Times described Steve's comedy."Marshall's style relies on a sharp mind and a complete inability to properly behave himself. Nothing too controversial, just a little good-old-fashioned honesty."RATED H FOR HONESTY.Steve doesn't behave, he tells the truth.After graduating with a degree in accounting Steve turned down a job with Price Waterhouse to follow his dream and become a comedian. By day he taught accounting, business law , math and psychology at a vocational business school. He told jokes and made accounting fun. His misbehaving got him promoted to Dean.By night he went to open mics and learned to make people laugh.One day he was picking up his dry cleaning and teasing the woman behind the counter, she smiled and said "behave" and Steve found his comedy voice.Steve takes the stage announcing proudly "I'm not here to behave" and proceeds to speak honestly about sex, ethnicity, love, and the lack of respect for women,gays, minorities and even men. That's right, men get disrespected too!The results have been amazing.Steve has appeared on network and cable tv. NBC,CBS, the Food Network have all featured Steve being funny.Steve has been seen cooking and cracking jokes with Bobby flay on Hot Off the Grill and stealing the date on Blind Date. That's right. We told you Steve doesn't behave for laughs.His high energy and broad smile made him a perfect choice to warm up tv audiences for ABC's The View.A strong writer Steve has written monologue jokes for the Late Show With David Letterman and is the head writer for a new dvd coming out called Extreme Comedy.Steve is a recognized film director. He wrote and directed Academy Award Consideree and Long Island Film Festival Winner "Get the Script to Woody Allen".

Time Out NY reviewed Steve's show and called it "genuinely funny."Genuine, passionate, honest! This high energy comedian,actor,writer,director, will make you laugh about real life with the fun of a party where no one behaves. hence Don't Behave is my philosophy for finding one's true self. Steve discovered if I broke patterns and paradigms I behaved more naturally.Simply walking to a familiar place in a different route opened my subconscious to spontaneity. The next step or evolvement is transcending.Knowledge becomes the diving board to bounce on and inspire one to dive.On stage I am diving into the unknown, using different approaches as a diving board to propel me.The same in my personal life.The personal becomes the diving board for my stage performance and the stage performance becomes the diving board for my personal life. Therefore on or off the stage I Am Me.

The Republicans and Democrats held their conventions and the country marches toward the presidential election. On this episode of Talkenomics, Karith Foster is back for another episode of Shapiro and Foster Timely Topics. Nothing is off base or out of bounds as comedian Foster explains why she doesn't trust Hillary Clinton, what bothers her about Donald Trump and why we all must watch her at home natural birth video. What is most revealing is when Foster shares a deeply emotional experience she had while pregnant, a truth she shares with Adam while talking about Black Lives Matter. You'll be moved to tears. But prepare to laugh too as Foster tackles race in America, the premier of the documentary Can We Take a Joke and the icky green vegetable juice she tried to get Adam to drink.

Some things are best left to the young, Comics in the news (Interview with Karith Foster from the movie Can We take a joke), Weight loss scams, staying anonymous online, ISIS and porn

Popular comedian and blogger Karith Foster is back to discuss the headlines everyone is talking about but with a twist that will have you laughing and questioning if you can say that on TV. Pushing the bounds of political correctness, Foster and Shapiro move from politics to a cat in heat, dating in Manhattan and the perils of making fun of a woman named TiTi in a TALKENOMICS Timely Topics discussion. You'll want to listen with your friends at work just don't laugh too loudly or your boss may bet angry.

Karith Foster describes herself as a humorist, motivational speaker, TV & Radio personality, actress, author, blogger, entrepreneur and Black! Actually she says, " brown" if you watch some of her comedy routines online. Her race and marriage to a white or as Foster says, "peach", Australian provide material for her comedy and lectures as does the current state of race relations in the United States. Named by Backstage Magazine one of the "Top 10 Comics to Watch", Foster is an accomplished business woman who speaks nationwide providing workshops like, "Stereotyped 101", "You Are E.N.O.U.G.H.", "Laughter Bootcamp" and "You Can Be Perfect Or You Can Be Happy". She was voted the #1 Speaker by Stanford Graduate School of Business in part because of her ability to use "disarming wit and keen understanding of our shared experiences..." to bring people together. On this episode of Talkenomics, Foster agreed to discuss what we called "The Uncomfortable Conversation" about race and the topics black and white Americans may be afraid to discuss with one another.

Hosts Sheryl Matthys and Karith Foster talk to Thy Cavagnaro, pet parent to Atka the Eski. As a Vietnamese political refugee in 1975, Thy fled Saigon, barely a toddler, with her family of five and dog on one scooter. Although the dog was not allowed to continue the journey to America, her family was never without a pet of some sort. Thy's love and passion for animals was evident from the very beginning, unwavering even when she was severely bitten in the face by their Basset Hound as a small child. She was always the person to show an innate understanding of animals, gained the most trust from them, and enjoyed teaching the family pets how to do tricks completely of her own accord. Thy & her dogs have been featured in books, newspapers, blogs, video and on national TV, for Animal Planet's "Dogs 101" series.
