Dave Mayer, Business Ethics professor at the University Michigan, is an award-winning researcher and highly sought after teacher and speaker. Dave has published over 60 articles and book chapters in leading management and psychology journals. He's a regular contributor to the Harvard Business Review and Fast Company, and his research and ideas have been covered in Bloomberg, Business Insider, CNBC, Forbes, Fortune, Huffington Post, LA Times, Newsweek, NPR, The Atlantic, The Wall Street Journal, and The Washington Post among others. Dave earned a B.A. in psychology from UC Davis and a Ph.D. in organizational psychology from the University of Maryland. In this episode we discuss the following:  How to live a good life: Be good. Feel good. Do good. To be good, fill our mornings with rocks, the most important, hard things. And then fill in the rest of our day with pebbles and sand. To feel good, be happy and healthy now. Don't keep pushing off happiness to the future because the happiness may never come. Every stage of life can be celebrated. And friendships and relationships should also be celebrated along the way. To do good, think about the three attributes that best describe your role model, and then strive to follow their example. Don't get so caught up in trying to be good that you forget to do good. As Aristotle said, we can improve our virtues the same way we improve our other habits. If happiness and meaning are habits, we should prioritize them now, rather than waiting for a day that may not come. We need to balance self-acceptance with growth. We don't want to beat ourselves up for not being perfect, but there's always space to be better.

With Dr. Victor Strecher, Public Health Professor at the University of Michigan and Founder of Kumanu   Did you know that active individuals whose lives are filled with purpose, may have a reduced risk of developing mild cognitive impairment or dementia? It is estimated that by 2050, people over the age of 65 will comprise roughly 16% of the world's population, and it's also expected the rate of Alzheimer's and other dementia diagnoses will triple from the current rate of 57 million to 152 million.   Keeping our minds active and engaged is important, but how we build a healthy lifestyle is key through diet, exercise, and meaningful activities. Whether it's volunteering, socializing, or spending time in nature, living with purpose and intention can slow the rate of cognitive decline and lessen the risk of depression, leading to an overall better quality of life.   Last year, Florine interviewed Dr. Vic Strecher, a University of Michigan Professor and the founder of the digital platform, Kumanu. In addition to educating us on what a purpose-filled life looks like, Vic also talked about how Kumanu helps people find their purpose, and how to live with purpose even if they are facing hardship. This conversation is more relevant today than ever, as so many events in the news can distract us from living in our true purpose.   What You'll Hear on This Episode:   What does Kumanu mean and how was the name chosen?   How doing something that is purpose-driven and meaningful delivers more long-lasting results than merely satisfying our hedonistic urges. Kumanu believes our well-being starts with asking “why.” It's the little, everyday things that can add up to our purpose. How does Kumanu work for both individuals and corporations? How does having a purpose, or lack thereof, affect our well-being? People with a low purpose are more likely to become depressed, and even develop Alzheimer's disease. How to live with purpose even when you're facing hardship. How a life-changing personal tragedy transformed Vic and his family. What is the connection between behavioral science and cancer prevention? Thinking about community is not just important for individuals, but for businesses as well, and can also help boost revenue. How does our society, as a whole, need to think more about transcending purpose? Why did Vic leave his behavioral science job? What are the different applications for Kumanu? Why Vic hasn't quit his day job teaching at the University of Michigan. What happens to our brains during times of fear? What does describing Kumanu as a “next-generation well-being company” mean?   Today's Takeaway: Studies have shown that people with a purpose lead longer, happier lives. Living your life with purpose isn't just about being more productive with your day; it's critical to your health, happiness, and overall well-being. Once you identify your purpose, it's important to align your actions each day with that mission. It gives you a reason to get up in the morning and sets the tone for your entire day. Is your life lacking purpose right now? If you answered yes to that question, I urge you to find something you're passionate about that gives your life meaning. It could be something big or even very small. What excites you? What makes you happy? Think of how you could make that your purpose. The search for a meaningful life begins with YOU. Only we can determine the direction of our lives and choose what we do with the opportunities we are given. Remember that every day is a gift. When we begin our day with a specific purpose and accomplish what we set out to do we're not only achieving more, we feel better about it. For years I felt like a failure because I couldn't lose weight, but once I took charge, went to Weight Watchers, and learned how to develop habits, my purpose changed. My purpose is now to enjoy life, live healthy, and tell the people around me that I love them. I'm Florine Mark and that's “Today's Takeaway.”   Quotes: “Kumanu is actually Māori for ‘nourish and cherish.'” — Vic “All I mean by having a purpose in life is that you have a goal or set of goals that matter most in your life.” — Vic “We need to care more about what we care about.” — Vic “Most of us have more than one purpose.” — Vic “People with a stronger purpose are less likely, on average, to develop dementia and Alzheimer's.” — Vic “We know scientifically that people with a transcending purpose, thinking about things bigger than yourself, their genes actually express more antibodies.” — Vic “I just want to help people become more purposeful.” — Vic “Only focusing on the ‘how' to do something is to me not as important as the ‘why.'” — Vic “If you start thinking about your customers, communities, even the vendors and valuing them, you end up making more value yourself.” — Vic   Brought to You By: Florine Mark   Mentioned in This Episode: Kumanu Dr. Victor Strecher's Books on Amazon Life on Purpose: How Living for What Matters Most Changes Everything Firms of Endearment: How World-Class Companies PROFIT from Passion and Purpose

How many people in America live on less than $2 a day? Something many of us don't think about but a reality for those living in poverty in the United States. In this episode, Bishop Wright has a conversation with Luke Schaefer Ph.D. A University of Michigan Professor of Social Justice and Social Policy and Associate Dean for Research and Policy Engagement.

Emma hosts today’s Majority Report, featuring an interview Sam recorded with Jonathan Daniel Wells, University of Michigan Professor of History, on his latest book “The Kidnapping Club: Wall Street, Slavery, and Resistance on the Eve of the Civil War.” They explore slavery's deep ties to the financial centers of the North, NYC in particular, even after slavery laws began to change. Centering on the southern ties of Wall Street and Tammany Hall, Jonathan and Sam talk about the horrors of the Kidnapping Club, a collection of NY Police, Judges, Slave Catchers and US Marshals who trafficked free Black folk from the North into Southern captivity regardless of fugitive status, and how Black abolitionists such as David Ruggles fought and organized to push back against their reign of terror. Next, Emma reviews Tim Ryan’s passionate performance on the floor, and how he found a way to be stunned by Republicans’ refusal to engage in bipartisanship over January 6th and climate change and looks into Ted Cruz’s claim that Biden is sabotaging Netanyahu’s apartheid regime by… selling them $700 million in arms. And in the Fun Half: Dave from Jamaica calls in to chat about the success of right-wing Israeli propaganda before Fox’s Katie Pavlich and Dan Bongino give us some perfect examples of what he was talking about, forcing Geraldo Rivera of all people into the anti-War Crime camp. Emma and Matt dig into the tired “human shield” excuse for Israeli slaughter, and how refusing Palestinians any chance of self-governance or freedom has engendered Hamas's control of the region. Then, Andrew Giuliani fudges his political resume, citing the first decade of his life as central to his time spent in politics, and the Cuomos show off their own take on NY political dynasties, plus, your calls and IMs!

Nick Iannarino (PhD, University of Kentucky; MA, University of Dayton) is an Associate Professor in the Department of Language, Culture, and Communication at the University of Michigan-Dearborn. Nick specializes in health communication, and he is particularly interested in how people in close relationships manage the social experience of severe and chronic illness.

One of her proudest claims to fame is having seen the Beatles in concert in Detroit in 1964. She went away to school and came back to take a teaching position at Kalamazoo College, where she taught literature, writing, and women's studies for 36 years. There she won awards fo teaching and for creative/scholarly work, and she was chosen Michigan Professor of the Year in 1995. She has published four books of nonfiction, including Grief's Country: A Memoir in Pieces and The Events of October: Murder-Suicide on a Small Campus. She is currently looking through a huge stack of poems to see whether a book might be hiding there, and she has her mind on a collection of personal essays on whiteness and confronting racism. Since retiring from K College she has offered workshops in anti-racist white consciousness and building white allies for community groups and organizations. She lives in West Main Hill with a black cat named Nell, and her enduring life goal is to spend as much time as possible at the northwest Lake Michigan shore.Follow 5AQ on Instagram - @fiveauthorquestions Email 5AQ - podcasts@kpl.gov 5AQ is produced by Jarrod Wilson.

My guest today is Ethan Kross, one of the world’s leading experts on controlling the conscious mind. He’s currently a professor at the University of Michigan, where he founded the Emotion & Self Control Laboratory. He’s also the author of Chatter: The Voice in Our Head, Why It Matters, and How to Harness It, which is the focus of our conversation today. In this episode, we learn about what coaches can do to help reframe the negative self-talk we have with ourselves and help our players do the same. Ethan walks us through examples of how he would handle different situations, including coaching a player who is reluctant to take advice, helping a player deal with negative self talk when enduring a slump, or why he would encourage players to have routines like tennis great Rafael Nadal. From time to time I am going to have others co-host episodes with me and today I’m joined by Oliver Winterbone. Oliver is the Director of Coaches and Executives at Wasserman, one of the premiere talent management companies in the world. He previously spent five seasons in the front office of the Oklahoma City Thunder in various roles, most recently as Director of Player Development. Before that he worked for the University of Florida Basketball program from 2010-14 which is when we got to know each other. Show Notes: (1:28) - Episode begins with a story of Rick Ankiel (6:12) - Ethan gives an overview of topics he covers in the book and what ‘chatter’ is (10:30) - Ethan explains the three buckets of tools to help coaches handle negative self-talk or help players handle negative-self talk (12:59) - Ethan explains how to use distanced self-talk (16:09) - Best practices to coach a player experiencing anxiety while playing (19:55) - The benefits of rituals (24:55) - How rituals performed as a group help shrink the sense of self and make us feel part of something bigger than ourselves (25:25) - How coaches should advise players to use rituals for their advantage (28:20) - Why it’s important to have a chatter “Board of Advisors” and choose who you go to for help and support carefully (32:20) - How coaches can help address both the emotion and cognitive parts of someone’s problem (35:15) - How social media contributes to our negative self-talk and advice on handling the upside and downside of social media (45:30) - How to give unsolicited advice or coach a player who isn’t receptive to listening to you (48:38) - How ‘touch’ helps us work through difficult times (54:55) - How experiencing the emotion of ‘awe’ can help us handle chatter and feel part of something bigger (58:00) - How to learn to treat ourselves kinder (mentions Tim Ferriss’ podcast with Jim Loehr) (1:01:25) - Advice for parents to encourage positive behaviors around chater (1:05:31) - End of episode questions End of Episode Questions: 1.    What’s 1 book every coach should read? Grit: The Power of Passion and Perseverance by Angela Duckworth Mindset: The New Psychology of Success by Carol Dweck Quiet: The Power of Introverts in a World That Can't Stop Talking by Susan Cain 2.    Who is one person you’d want to hear as a guest on this podcast?  Jim Harbaugh 3.    What’s one area you’re looking to improve in over the next year?  Spend more time with his children 4.    What’s popular advice you hear people say that you think is wrong? Vent about your problems 5.    What advice do you have for young coaches who are listening to this? Be cognizant of the power of the mind can have on performance 6.    What’s the darkest moment you experienced professionally and how did you overcome it? He received a threatening letter about work he published. He used his chatter toolbox to overcome it Favorite Quotes: “We don't want to rid ourselves of negativity. What we want to do is prevent the negative thoughts from morphing into the chatter, into the negative cycle of thinking and feeling that's unproductive and never ends.” “Rituals, we often do them with, especially in the sports context, with other other players and coaches, and they have a broader meaning, right? There's this strength, this significance. It's not about just me. It's about all of us together and when it's about the team, not just me, that makes our own concerns feel a little bit smaller. So there's a shrinking of the self that occurs when we engage in these kinds of collective rituals that are very prevalent in sports.” “And so what I tell people is to be really deliberate about who you choose to go to for chatter support. Like, I think really carefully about this in my own life. There are lots of people who I love very much and who love me who I don't go to for help because I know they're just going to make it worse or they're not going to help. And so there are other people that I consistently go to for support and they help. So I like to think of this as you’re building a board of advisors for help in different domains that you might need it.” “When an athlete engages in a structured ritual, that gives them a sense of control. They're putting things in a particular place, they're creating order. And that provides us with a sense of order that can be alleviating.” “Look, negative self-talk on its own isn't a bad thing. Like, it's, I think, a good thing to be able to review your life and review the negative things so you can learn from them.” “You know, you'll see LeBron James, there was a an incident ten years ago (“The Decision”) where he's facing a really tough decision. He says, “All right, I don't want to make an emotional decision, LeBron James got to do what is best for LeBron James.” Or you see Tiger Woods coaching himself through a difficult stroke using his name. And so a lot of people stumble on this technique, I think without really understanding how it works. We've now I figured out how it works and it's something that we can coach other people to use.”

The Michigan Supreme Court invalidated Gov. Whitmer's emergency powers law on the basis of an antiquated doctrine that conservatives in the Supreme Court want to revive. University of Michigan Professor of Law Nicholas Bagley breaks down the ruling and what this may mean for the rest of America.

Jack Ridl was walking with his 7-year-old daughter when she said "with" was the most important word because people always have to be with something, someone, or themselves. When she added that it meant everyone has to makes sure they have a good "with," Jack's perception of the world changed. We talk about how a simple and profound concept has since shaped his life, health, and poetry.  Additional Resources  Jack Ridl ridl.wordpress.com on Facebook  Saint Peter and the Goldfinch by Jack Ridl (Wayne State University Press)   My Brother—A Star My mother was pregnant through the first nine games of the season. We were 7- 2. I waited for a brother. My father kept to the hard schedule. Waking the morning of the tenth game, I thought of skipping school and shooting hoops. My cornflakes were ready, soggy. There was a note: "The baby may come today. Get your haircut." We were into January, and the long December snow had turned to slush. The wind was mean. My father was gone. I looked in on my mother still asleep and hoped she'd be OK. I watched her, dreamed her dream: John at forward, me at guard. He'd learn fast. At noon, my father picked me up at the playground. My team was ahead by six. We drove toward the gym. "Mom's OK," he said and tapped his fist against my leg. The Plymouth ship that rode the hood pulled us down the street. "The baby died," he said. I felt my feet press hard against the floorboard. I put my elbow on the door handle, my head on my hand, and watched the town: Kenner's Five and Ten, Walker's Hardware, Jarret's Bakery, Shaffer's Barber Shop, the bank. Dick Green and Carl Stacey waved. "It was a boy." We drove back to school. "You gonna coach tonight?" "Yes." "Mom's OK?" "Yes. She's fine. Sad. But fine. She said for you to grab a sandwich after school. I'll see you at the game. Don't forget about your hair." I got out, walked in late to class. "We're doing geography," Mrs. Wilson said. "Page ninety-seven. The prairie." That night in bed I watched this kid firing in jump shots from everywhere on the court. He'd cut left, I'd feed him a fine pass, he'd hit. I'd dribble down the side, spot him in the corner, thread the ball through a crowd to his soft hands, and he'd loft a star up into the lights where it would pause then gently drop, fall through the cheers and through the net. The game never ended. I fell into sleep. My hair was short. We were 8 and 2.         for my mother and my father Jack Ridl First published in The Journal/Ohio State University Subsequently published in Saint Peter and the Goldfinch (Wayne State University Press)   Jack Ridl, Poet Laureate of Douglas, Michigan (Population 1100), in April 2019 released Saint Peter and the Goldfinch (Wayne State University Press, 2019).  Jack’s Practicing to Walk Like a Heron (WSUPress, 2013) was awarded the National Gold Medal for poetry by ForeWord Review./Indie Pub. His collection Broken Symmetry (WSUPress) was co-recipient of The Society of Midland Authors best book of poetry award for 2006. His Losing Season (CavanKerry Press) was named the best sports book of the year for 2009 by The Institute for International Sport, and The Boston Globe named it one of the five best books about sports. In 2017 it was developed into a Readers Theater work. Winner of The Gary Gildner Prize for Poetry, Jack has been featured on public radio (“It’s Only a Game with Bill Littlefield,” “The Story with Dick Gordon,” and Garrison Keillor’s “The Writer’s Almanac.”) Then Poet Laureate Billy Collins selected his Against Elegies for The Center for Book Arts Chapbook Award. He read in NYCity with Billy Collins and Sharon Dolin at Christmas after 9/11. He and Peter Schakel are co-authors of Approaching Poetry and Approaching Literature, and editors of 250 Poems, all from Bedford/St. Martin’s Press. With William Olsen he edited Poetry in Michigan in Poetry (New Issues Press). He has done readings in many venues including being invited to read at the international Geraldine R. Dodge Poetry Festival, and was one of twelve people in the arts from around the U.S. invited to the Fetzer Institute for their first conference on compassion and forgiveness. In 2014, Jack received the “Talent Award” from the Literacy Society of West Michigan for his “lifetime of work for poetry literacy,” and The Poetry Society of Michigan named him “Honorary Chancellor,” only the second poet so honored. His poem “Remembering the Night I Dreamed Paul Klee Married the Sky” was selected by Naomi Shihab Nye and featured in The New York Times Sunday Magazine for November 3, 2019. Following the presidential election in 2016 he started the “In Time Project,” each Thursday sending out a commentary and poem. Christian Zaschke, the NYC based U.S. correspondent for the leading German Newspaper Sueddeutsche  Zeitung, wrote a feature about his work. Jack and his wife Julie founded the visiting writers series at Hope College where he taught for 37 years. The students named him both their Outstanding Professor and Favorite Professor, and in 1996 The Carnegie (CASE) Foundation named him Michigan Professor of the Year. Nine of his students are included in the anthology Time You Let Me In: 25 Poets Under 25 edited by Naomi Shihab Nye. More than 90 of Jack’s students have earned an MFA degree and more than 90 are published authors, several of whom have received First Book Awards, national honors. In retirement Jack conducts a variety of writing workshops, welcomes readings, holds one on one sessions, etc. For further information about Jack and these activities, check out his website at www.ridl.com.

In this kickoff to Rural Matters’ first in-depth, four-part series, Rural Communities: Conquering Challenges, Optimizing Opportunities, Michelle and three guests take a deep dive on what it’s like — and what it could be like in the future — to live in Rural America, exploring the recent findings of a survey conducted by the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation and Harvard University School of Public Health. The three guests are Dr. Robert J. Blendon, Richard L. Menschel Professor and Senior Associate Dean for Policy Translation and Leadership Development at the Harvard School of Public Health who serves as co-director of the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation/Harvard School of Public Health project on understanding Americans' Health Agenda; Ed Sivak, Chief Policy and Communications Officer for Hope Enterprise Corporation/ Hope Credit Union (HOPE); and Luke Shaefer, University of Michigan Professor of Social Work in the School of Social Work and Professor of Public Policy in the Gerald R. Ford School of Public Policy; and Director of Poverty Solutions. The majority of those living in rural America are optimistic about the future, but many others are concerned about their economic future and, in particular, the opioid crisis, according to Blendon. The survey results show that about half in rural America say they could not pay a “surprise” bill of $1,000. In addition, Blendon notes, rural residents say they need outside help to deal with many of their problems, including that their health insurance coverage doesn’t enable them to seek certain local providers. In addition, he notes, one in five rural residents has difficulty getting Internet coverage, which creates all sorts of barriers, including in terms of health care. Sivak notes that in 9 out of 10 persistent poverty countries, many of them in the rural areas, the unemployment rate exceeds the national average. Access to a financial institution, such as Hope, really matters, he concludes. Shaefer points out that rural communities are disproportionately represented among the 100 most vulnerable communities in the United States. The bottom line, according to the guests, is that life in rural America today is indeed challenging for many residents and that outside help is needed, but because of volunteer efforts, local “superheroes,” and innovative solutions that hopefully can be sustaining, there are realistic opportunities to address the problems. This episode — and the entire four-part series — is sponsored by the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation, RWJF.org, @rwjf. This episode also was sponsored by Thomas USAF, who is sponsoring the 20th Annual National Rural Lenders Roundtable in Washington, DC on December 4, www.nrlrt.com.
