JOHAN VAKIDIS has worked with computers since his teens and took his skills in programming and early software and web development into the worlds of advertising and experiential event entertainment. Johan's work as a digital creative has allowed him to create projects all over the globe- from Montreal to Shanghai. His work in China and Korea and Singapore taught him the specific ways and protocols of working in East Asia. The "rituals" that are a part of business in these markets formed his "cultural fluency." Johan shared that "being able to trust the people you work with-- in China there is a hierarchy in business." Moving back to Montreal after 20 years, gave Johan a chance to try new ways of working - experiential design and working with huge brands where he integrated multiple adapted skills. A CCO by his late 30's, Johan has built not only major brand projects, but culture and collaboration. He is raising his teen son who got to interview skateboard celeb, Tony Hawk, on a Nike job- and is now enjoying his "intentional pivot" with his current position at C2, a company with the Kyu Collective. The "languages" he speaks include Mandarin, French, Spanish, Italian, Greek and some Italian- besides the ad speak, and the fluency in navigating the spheres of digital entertainment - while "scaling up!"

But Where Are You Really From?: An Asian-American Struggle

What made a white college kid from the midwest decide to move to the other side of the world to live in China?! In this episode, we're joined by Nick Anderson, an LA-based Mandarin teacher who spent his formative young adult years living in China and other Asia-Pacific countries learning and teaching Mandarin. We talk about what that experience was like, compounded with his experience coming out and living his best life as a gay man while abroad. Despite what many may think, Nick's experience being gay in China was overall quite positive - although, we discuss how that experience contrasts with local queer people who are more subjected to the local cultural norms, pressures, and regulations. After his many years abroad and his ongoing work helping individuals, businesses, moviemakers, and more understand the Chinese culture and language, Nick continues to have a strong passion for and connection to Mandarin and the various cultures that the language bridges.

Chinese Whispers
Dialect and identity: is Mandarin bad for China?

Across the span of China, a country as big as Europe, there are countless regional dialects and accents – perhaps even languages. Often, they're mutually unintelligible. The Chinese call these ‘fangyan', and each Chinese person will likely be able to speak at least one fangyan, while also understanding Standard Mandarin, the official language of the People's Republic. It means that the Chinese are more multilingual than you might think. But it also means that the question of language is inherently a political one. Standard Mandarin has a relatively short history, created by the country's founding fathers to unify the spoken word in a huge country. But with the ubiquity of Standard Mandarin now, is fangyan at risk of dying out? Joining the episode is Gina Tam, a historian and author of Dialect and Nationalism in China.

San Jose is among the richest cities in the United States, if not the richest. But even in Santa Clara County's Silicon Valley, people fall on hard times and need help.   When they do, The Salvation Army is there to help, providing shelter at Emmanuel House and food through a daily drive-through distribution and senior nutrition program at its Silicon Valley campus.   The campus also houses the tri-lingual San Jose church, with services in English, Spanish and Mandarin. And in the coming years, The Salvation Army plans to do even more from this central location, which oversees all Salvation Army operations in Santa Clara County.   Adjacent to the campus, Emmanuel House provides both overnight shelter and transitional living for men in need.   There's no wait for those who show up at the check-in time with identification—something that's not always possible through the Santa Clara County hotline.   To learn more about The Salvation Army in Silicon Valley, visit https://siliconvalley.salvationarmy.org/

Migraines are often dismissed as mere "bad headaches," but they are far more than that. This debilitating condition affects over 1 billion people worldwide, with women being three to four times more likely to experience them than men. Despite the vast number of people affected, migraines remain shrouded in mystery and often fall outside the scope of traditional Western medicine.Enter Diane Ducarme, the Founder and CEO of Nectar Health, a beacon of hope for migraine sufferers.   With an impressive background in Engineering and an MBA from Harvard Business School, Diane uses this experience along with  Traditional Chinese Medicine, to bring a unique and holistic approach to understanding and managing migraines for women. Diane can also speak 7 languages, one of which is Mandarin. Her 8th language is probably "Migraines"!I had the privilege of chatting with Diane this week and learnt so much including:  ⭐ Debunking the common misconception that migraines are simply bad headaches⭐ Exploring the genetic predisposition and associated symptoms of migraines⭐ Delving into the root causes of migraines⭐ The impact of hormonal changes during perimenopause on migraine triggers and management   ⭐ Diane's innovative approach to migraine treatment and management ⭐ Shifting our perspective on migraines⭐ The use of technology to personalize treatment plans for individuals with migraines⭐ The complexity of treating migraines and the challenges faced by migraine sufferers⭐  The limitations of Western medicine in treating women with migraines⭐ Changing the dialogue around migrainesFor more on Diane and My Nectar Health:https://www.mynectarhealth.com/https://www.instagram.com/mynectarhealth/Take the migraine test hereSupport the showTo book a FREE 15 minute discovery call with me go to: https://calendly.com/pollywarrencoaching/15minTo join my FB group go to: https://www.facebook.com/groups/thepositiveperimenopauseclubEmail me at: info@pollywarren.comhttps://www.pollywarren.com/https://www.instagram.com/pollywarrencoaching/

Taiwan lesen – das ermöglicht die umfangreiche Anthologie „Zwischen Himmel und Meer“, die in Stuttgart mit dem Cotta-Preis 2023 geehrt wurde. Der vollständige und recht lange Titel des zweigeteilten Preises lautet: Johann‐Friedrich‐von‐Cotta‐Literatur‐ und Übersetzungspreis. Den Preis in der Sparte Literatur erhielt die Autorin Svenja Leiber für ihren Roman „Kazimira“. Der Übersetzungspreis wiederum ging an den Sinologen Thilo Diefenbach für seine Taiwan-Anthologie, über die er hier mit SWR2-Literaturredakteurin Katharina Borchardt spricht. „Zwischen Himmel und Meer“ zeichnet sich durch frappierende Vielsprachigkeit aus, denn im Inselstaat Taiwan wurden und werden trotz der aktuellen Dominanz des Mandarin mehrere Sprachen parallel gesprochen und geschrieben. Davon zeugt auch die preisgekrönte Anthologie, in der neben Legenden der taiwanischen Ureinwohner zahlreiche Übersetzungen aus dem Mandarin, dem Taiwanesischen, dem Hakka und dem Japanischen zu finden sind. „Es sind diese Superlative der kulturellen Vermittlungsleistung von Thilo Diefenbach und seinen Mitarbeitenden, die mit dem Cotta‐Preis für Übersetzung ausgezeichnet werden“, so die Begründung der Jury.

as per we must embrace the way kids learn. The direct link between age and the ability to learn is tenuous, with some studies dispelling the myth that children are inherently better learners than adults. The key to learning as quickly as a child may be simply to take on certain childlike attitudes: a lack of self-consciousness, a desire to play in the language and a willingness to make mistakes. Plus, it helps to come in with fewer preconceived notions about what a language is and can be. Humans learn by making mistakes. As kids, we are expected to make mistakes, but as adults, mistakes are taboo. Think how an adult is more likely to say “I can't” rather than “I haven't learned that yet.” To be seen failing (or merely struggling) is a social taboo that doesn't burden children as much. When it comes to learning a language, admitting that you don't know everything is the key to growth and freedom. Let go of your grown-up inhibitions! Matthew Youlden said, “I tend to want to absorb as much as possible right from the start. So if I learn something, I really, really go for it and try to use it throughout the day. As the week progresses I try to think in it, try to write in it, try to speak to myself even in that language. For me, it's about actually putting what you're learning into practice — be that writing an email, speaking to yourself, listening to music, listening to the radio. Surrounding yourself, submerging yourself in the new language culture is extremely important.” Here are 10 of Matthew's best language-learning tips.WHERE AS John McWhorter, leading linguistics expert said, “The other thing is having realistic expectations of how much time you're going to spend a day. For example, when I'm not doing my Mandarin lessons, which involve going and talking to a person for an hour and a half … 15 minutes, maybe 20 minutes a day. That's about all the time I have. If I tried to make it more, I would get intimidated, and I probably couldn't fit it in because, if you're a busy person, life doesn't offer you naked half hours, and certainly not whole hours.”GET AN OCCASIONAL PERSONAL EMAIL FROM ME: www.makeyourdamnbedpodcast.comTUNE IN ON INSTAGRAM FOR COOL CONTENT: www.instagram.com/mydbpodcastOR BE A REAL GEM + TUNE IN ON PATREON: www.patreon.com/MYDBpodcastOR WATCH ON YOUTUBE: www.youtube.com/juliemerica The opinions expressed by Julie Merica and Make Your Damn Bed Podcast are intended for entertainment purposes only.

The spread of world missions started with the arrival of the Holy Spirit at Pentecost, as His power worked through the church. By the end of the first century, the Gospel had been proclaimed throughout the entire Roman Empire. Another significant surge in the spread of the Gospel occurred after the Azusa Street revival, which resulted in its reach expanding to the entire world. To fulfill Jesus's prophecy in Matthew 24:14, the Church needs to undergo a renewal and receive a fresh outpouring of the Holy Spirit's baptism and His refining fire.Dennis Balcombe received Jesus Christ as his personal saviour in 1961. Also, he received the call of God on his life at a young age and traveled to China at the age of 24.  He has lived in Hong Kong for the past 54 years. God has greatly used him to bless and strengthen the Chinese church; a church that now has well over one hundred million believers.  He speaks fluent Mandarin and Cantonese.  He continues to minister to the Chinese and many others throughout Asia and the world.  As the founder of Revival Chinese Ministries International, he is a sought-after speaker globally. Dennis lives with his wife Kathy, daughter Sharon and Samuel Lau (son-in-law) in HK and serving the Churches.    We hope that this teaching left you more encouraged and equipped today. Ministers Fellowship International exists to help leaders build healthy, strong, impacting churches and to do so in a way that makes for a healthy leader.

In this week's MBA Admissions podcast we began by discussing the MBA application deadlines and interview releases reported over the past week. We are seeing Round 1 interview invites on MBA LiveWire continuing to roll out for Berkeley / Haas, Stanford, Cornell / Johnson, and several other programs. Graham highlighted the deferred admissions events that Clear Admit is hosting, which begin this Wednesday, with Harvard, Stanford, UPenn / Wharton, Chicago / Booth, and UVA / Darden. Signups for the two deferred admissions events are here: https://bit.ly/declearadmit Graham then mentioned a recently published story for Clear Admit's sustainability series, from Berkeley / Haas, as well as Clear Admit's “spooky” admissions tips. He then asked listeners for some help with our fall survey for MBA applicants, which will allow MBA programs to better understand candidates' communications preferences. You can access the survey here: https://bit.ly/clearadmitfallsurvey We then discussed two Real Humans pieces, one from Emory / Goizueta and the second from Boston College / Carroll. As usual, for the candidate profile review portion of the show, Alex selected three ApplyWire entries. This week's first MBA admissions candidate has super numbers, a 770 GMAT and 3.94 GPA. But they only have two years of work experience. We discussed the advantages of applying now, versus waiting for another year, with more work experience. This week's second MBA candidate also has a great GMAT (760). They have 10 years of experience, and are now based in Australia. They are of Indian heritage, but with Australian citizenship. They are debating whether to target Round 2 with additional applications (they applied to a couple of programs in Round 1) or wait until next season. We suggest they target Round 2 as a first step. The final MBA candidate comes from the military and speaks fluent mandarin. They are also seeking a joint degree with International Relations. We are very interested in their long term goal, and how that fits their narrative. But their overall profile could be very appealing to MBA admissions committees. This episode was recorded in Cornwall, England and Cassis, France. It was produced and engineered in Philadelphia, USA by Dennis Crowley.
