Podcasts about keeping it real

Performative diversity & inclusion initiatives were never about progress.They were considered as performative for a reason—because it looks like change without being change.That's the conversation I'm having in one of my most viewed episodes of Keeping It Real with Dr. Anita—and it's a message that matters now more than ever.In this episode, I break down:-Why social statements without internal action erode trust-How failure to lean into inclusive influence ultimately limits impact-What real accountability looks like when it's cascaded from the top throughout the organizationIf we want real representation and retention, we must move beyond checking boxes and start changing cultures.Watch now, and if it speaks to you, please share it ➡️ because we all have a role to play in getting this right.

Why Hank Parker Walked Away From Fishing Fame | 100% Wild Podcast Ep. 431 Legendary angler and TV host Hank Parker joins Matt and Tim on this week's 100% Wild Podcast, powered by DeerCast. From dominating the Bassmaster Classic to starring in outdoor TV since the '80s, Hank reflects on his unbelievable career in the outdoors—and the moment he nearly lost it all in a treestand accident. The guys talk about public perception around hunting (including the blowback from Matt's recent bear harvest), how Ray Scott turned largemouth bass into America's favorite sportfish, and the early days of outdoor television when cameras were the size of briefcases. Hank shares untold stories from the Earnhardt docu-series, reveals what Dale Sr. was really like behind the wheel and in the woods, and explains why he walked away from the peak of fishing fame to be a better dad. This episode is packed with laughs, wisdom, and emotional moments as Hank recounts the fall that nearly ended his hunting days—and how faith, family, and safety gear helped him get back on his feet.

This week, we feature one of the most-watched episodes of Keeping It Real with Dr. Anita—and for good reason.In the aftermath of George Floyd's murder in 2020, companies around the world made bold public promises to create more inclusive workplaces. Many invested in new roles, employee resource groups, and training efforts aimed at fostering equity and belonging.But here's the truth: real inclusion is not a one-time initiative. It's a continuous journey—one that demands transparency, accountability, and a genuine commitment to cultivating environments where everyone feels like they truly belong.In this episode, I unpack how that global moment reshaped the workplace—and what it takes to keep the momentum alive.

In today's Workday Playdate Snack, we're talking about the kind of trust fall that doesn't involve closing your eyes and hoping Linda from Accounting catches you. Nope—we're talking about the invisible, emotional kind. The one that happens during reorgs, layoffs, and those delightfully vague “strategic shifts” when your team is quietly wondering, “Are we safe? Can we trust you? Or should I start updating my LinkedIn headline to ‘Open to Work'?” If you're leading through change (or just trying to survive it)—this snack is for you. The Problem: Here's the situation: Your company is “reimagining,” “realigning,” or “restructuring”—aka, no one knows what's actually happening. And while the all-hands slides say “exciting opportunities ahead,” your team is refreshing their résumés and watching your every move. Why? Because trust doesn't disappear in a reorg—it falls. And someone's gotta catch it. That someone? You. Trust isn't built through promises—it's built through presence. Through honesty. Through leaders who are willing to say: “Here's what I know. Here's what I don't. And here's what I do know—we'll figure it out together.” The Improv Hack to Try: The “Yes, And… But Also” Technique Here's how to lead when everything's unclear—without pretending to have all the answers.Use this structure when delivering change or uncertainty: “Yes, and…” to validate what's real and open space for what's possible “But also…” to acknowledge fears and bring humanity into the room  Try this: “Yes, we're going through changes, and I know that can feel unsettling. But also—I believe in this team's ability to stay connected and support one another.” It's not spin. It's not sugarcoating. It's leadership that's rooted in reality and hope. Try it at your next team meeting. Watch what happens when trust stops falling—and starts rising.

The sermon from Sunday.

This past February marked the 7th anniversary of Dr. Anita Enterprises, Inc. — seven years of standing in the gap between where organizations are and where they aspire to be, especially as they navigate today's complex and evolving landscape.  And this month, I'm celebrating another milestone: stepping confidently into a new decade of life. But in the spirit of keeping it real, I would be remiss if I didn't also acknowledge that this season — both professionally and personally — has brought its share of challenges. So this month on Real Conversations from the C-Suite, we're doing something a little different. I'll be sharing more about what's happening in my business, what's unfolding in my life, and the lessons I'm learning as I navigate this next chapter. Joining me as guest host for this special reflective series is someone who needs no introduction to our community — the incomparable Ms. Kelli Kirkland! I invite you to tune in for a more introspective edition of Real Conversations from the C-Suite, where the roles are reversed — and this time, I'm the one in the guest chair.Connect with me!Web - https://www.doctoranita.com/YouTube - https://bit.ly/DrAnitaYouTubeLinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/in/anita-polite-wilson-ph-d-77695b/

The message from Sunday,

In this episode of Keeping It Real, the rant king does what he does best: cutting through the B.S. with brutal clarity and biting humor. He and Jillian tackle the intentional demolition of California under Gavin Newsom's watch, from the homelessness epidemic and out-of-control wildfires to the high cost of living, decaying infrastructure, and virtue-signaling policies that are driving residents out in droves. Along the way, Adam lets loose on political hypocrisy & identifies the politicians he thinks are the most dangerous. Plus, he slams Hollywood groupthink, the culture war on men, and why common sense has become a radical act.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Welcome to the month of May, and a special series of revelatory, Real Conversations from the C-Suite with Dr. Anita!  Navigating the pivot into a New Decade of life, and the next phase of leadership as an entrepreneur, I'm embracing two things:  Intention and innovation. For my business, that means deepening my focus: working with organizations serious about cultivating elite teams — culturally competent, high-performing, human-centered teams.  For myself, it means continuing to grow — but also allowing space for rest, reflection, and recalibration.  The truth is that longevity — in business and in life — requires pivoting without losing your purpose.  And that's exactly what I plan to do.  Join me during this special series of Real Conversations from the C-Suite as the tables are turned and I, Dr. Anita, become the featured guest!Connect with me!Web - https://www.doctoranita.com/YouTube - https://bit.ly/DrAnitaYouTubeLinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/in/anita-polite-wilson-ph-d-77695b/

Jason talks authenticity and we watch part 2 of the Baby Boy rundown. 

In this eye-opening episode of Keeping It Real, Jillian sits down with former Mafia capo Michael Franzese, a man who lived deep inside the world of organized crime and walked away—something almost unheard of. We dive into his fascinating life story, from his rise in the Colombo crime family to his decision to leave the Mafia behind and find redemption.But here's where it gets even more interesting: are the tactics of the government really that different from those of the Mafia? Michael shares his firsthand experience with the inner workings of both, exposing corruption, backroom deals, and power plays that eerily mirror what happens in the political world. From tax schemes and money laundering to loyalty, fear tactics, and backstabbing, we break down the shocking parallels between organized crime and modern government. We also explore the world of sports gambling—one of the Mafia's biggest money-makers—and how its influence has evolved with legalization, corporate interests, and political involvement.This is a must-listen episode for anyone who wants an unfiltered look at how power really works—whether in the streets or in Washington, D.C. Don't miss this raw, unfiltered conversation with one of the most compelling figures in organized crime history.
