The city got some surprising news this week with the announcement that Kim Schatzel was out as president of the University of Louisville.What started as a Tuesday night rumor quickly evolved into a close-door meeting of the University of Louisville Board of Trustees on Wednesday. Louisville Business First reporter Michael Jones was at that meeting and shares his insights on the situation on this week's Access Louisville podcast. Perhaps most surprising was that Schatzel's departure was followed by the quick appointment of Gerry Bradley to replace her. Bradley is the third president in five years. UofL has experienced a rotating cast of leaders since longtime president James Ramsey resigned in 2016.Also on this week's show, we discuss the former Highland United Methodist, which recently hit the market. Star Auerbach and her father Rob Auerbach, co-founder of Rainbow Blossom Natural Food Market, had purchased this property in 2023 and were considering a boutique hotel for the space. But after Rob Auerbach passed away in 2024, Star says she's no longer able to do the project on her own — though she would still like to see someone else pick it up.Further, we talk about some recent Downtown property sales including Advocacy Plaza near the courthouse and the former MPI Printing building on Jefferson Street. We chat about development near Lynn Family Stadium and we've got an interesting story involving two bars in NuLu, both of which are named Taj.There's also some content from our sponsors at Baird. LBF's Lisa Benson has an interview with investment strategist Ross Mayfield — they're talking market volatility, tariffs, bourbon and other economic news.Access Louisville, sponsored by Baird, is a weekly podcast from Louisville Business First.

Youtube https://youtu.be/a8SLBK32aQM ‘I became an expert at deception without even knowing it.' Lisa grew up as ‘Little Miss Perfect,' a star student – smart and capable. She had big plans for her life. Why then, by her mid-thirties had she settled for mediocrity? What had robbed her of her dreams? Why was she in a safe and unfulfilling job? Why was she in a toxic relationship with a controlling man she knew she didn't want to end up with? After a shocking wake-up call she finally took action and in the process discovered that she had been existing instead of living for too long. Plunging on an inward journey, she explores her childhood conditioning, intergenerational trauma and limiting beliefs which reveal how much time she squandered putting up, giving up and shutting up. Where Have I Been All My Life? explores the ways in which ‘good girls' make valuable mistakes on the path to true adulthood, but when we release fear and pain, we become empowered to claim freedom and authenticity. In this story of one woman reaching for a life beyond the silencing gates of shame, Lisa becomes unstuck and squeezes more joy and excitement into the last ten years than in her preceding thirty-seven. And who knows what surprises the universe has for her when she stops trying to be the person everyone expects her to be and starts being the person she was born to be?

Everyday HERStory: Beyond Representation - The Power of Using Our Voice with Lisa Benson

Hey sis! Welcome to the final day of Women's History Month and the chat with our last guest in the Everyday HERstory series. In a society where women have made major contributions, we're still fighting for many things. Issues such as equal pay, sexism, toxic patriarchal ideology and ageism still exist. We find ourselves saving our communities, families and even the nation; yet can face misogynoir. Our capabilities are questioned. We're held to higher levels of judgement. We are often mislabeled. (You know, like when men are called “assertive” and we're deemed aggressive. Insert eye roll.) Or maybe like me, you've at one time or another were called the “b” word – and the “b” was not for “brave”. Needless to say, being a woman isn't easy. And being a Black woman in particular adds to the complexities we face on a daily basis.  For the last few years, there's been more perspective given to the Black and female experience. In fact, since the 2020 protests, we've witnessed added attention to particular subjects that impact Black women. Bias.  Diversity. Equity. Equality. Representation. While I am glad these topics are being brought to the forefront, there is still much more work to do. As Black women navigate through the mix, it's important that we utilize the power of our voices to call out wrongs in order to enact change and accountability. Even where we collect our checks.  The racial dynamics including socialization, conflict and representation without voice is real in many work spaces. What do we do in those situations? Some feel empowered to speak without fear of retaliation or loss. But others, may not believe they have that capacity. Either way, it's tough to navigate. While many companies tout representation, they don't equally welcome the authentic voice of Black and brown women. But for former local anchor Lisa Benson, the choice to use her voice both cost and rewarded her.  In 2016, she sued her employer and its' parent company for race discrimination, alleging she was denied promotions and other job opportunities because of her race. Although Lisa did have a legal victory, choosing to litigate wasn't an easy decision. And not everyone was ready to stand by her side. After the tumultuous experience with racism and retaliation in her former workplace, she became the Founder/CEO of Winning Truths International, LLC. Her company works in the areas of of diversity, equity, inclusion and the eradication of racial ignorance. Lisa authored "Anchored in Bias, Fired Over White Tears”, chronicling her personal experience. While we discuss what she went through before and during her lawsuit, the conversation goes much deeper. She candidly shares how growing up around people who didn't look like her impacted her identity and other topics: what ally ship should look like, why we need to embrace each other's humanity regardless of skin color, race in faith spaces and more. Of course, we also talk about her stepping out as a media/DEI entrepreneur, and her advice to create an exit strategy for anyone in a toxic work environment.  This is the perfect conversation to wrap up our month and hopefully, encourage you in your own HERstory. The road isn't easy but as Lisa shows us, there is purpose on the other side.

Adena and Kara talk to two broadcast journalists, Brittany Noble and Lisa Benson, who share their experiences with racism in the newsroom. This episode's Turn to Your Neighbor segment features newspaper reporter Stephen Simpson. This summer, Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist Wesley Lowery wrote an article called a Reckoning Over Objectivity, Led by Black Journalists. His reflections were poignant -- that media organizations do not reflect the diversity of the  communities they cover.  And that all became obvious to more people (not us -- we been knew) with the protests following the murder of George Floyd. Media institutions, while trying to be objective, had to come to terms with their role perpetuating the status quo. And when black journalists challenge those conventions, they’re often pushed aside or labeled as a non-team player, looked over for promotions, and/or fired.Brittany Noble tells about her story in this Medium article. Lisa Benson  is now a diversity and racial consultant who recently published the book, Anchored in Bias: Fired Over White Tears.  CONNECT WITH BLACKBELT VOICESFollow @BlackbeltVoices on Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram.

A Career To Covet. Lisa Benson has a job many would want. The kind of job that begs the question “how did you get to do this?” As a Vice President at IMG Models, she’s a woman responsible for the fruitful careers of many, including supermodels Chrissy Teigen, Lily Aldridge, Chanel Iman, Hilary Rhoda, and more. She enjoys building her models into brands, and appreciates when they come to her with a holistic approach to the job. Lisa’s story is inspiring, and it’s a story of how dedication, loyalty, passion and hard work can get you very far. She started her career at IMG as receptionist, mastering the company’s buzzing switchboard, where every call was an important one, before being promoted to (now, company President) Ivan Bart’s assistant---a job she was simply determined to have. Lisa combines creativity, a business instinct, and a generous 24-7 approach to her work. She knows she’s able to do it well if she’s truly there for the models she represents, and many of them count her as not a trusted source that will help develop their career, but as a friend. We get into all the details of the work that she does, and her scrappy entry into the business. We discuss the skills needed, how she manages the innate pressure her job will bring, how social media plays a huge part in a model’s career, dealing with difficult people, diversity in the industry, the industry’s most sought-after jobs, her own favorite deals to work on, and how her industry will change for the future. We finish with the big question: what she’s looking forward to in the future. And of course we tapped her for a lightning round of favorites, including what she’s watching and reading, that you can shop here: 1.
