Brigette Iarusso is a disruptive business coach and non-oppressive sales expert for leaders looking to build sustainable business systems in alignment with their values. She is the creator of the Disruptive Business Summit (see more information and link below), a collection of interviews with some of the industry's most respected leaders including Jennifer Kem, Myisha T. Hill, Trudi Lebron and many others, to bring you the very best advice, insights and tools we can offer to help you scale with integrity. In fact, this podcast interview is a beautiful preview to some of what you're going to learn at the Disruptive Scale Summit, which gets right to the heart of how to make more money, save time and change more lives, while staying true to your values around personal and collective liberation. On the podcast, Brigette addresses how to sell your offers consensually, whereby a prospective client is guided through your free introductory event and into a sales conversation with transparency. She breaks down what kind of events and how to run events so that they lead to sales conversations where the prospective client already has most of what they need to make a decision. She describes in detail the many ways you can build social impact initiatives and activism into your business (AND make money), because at the heart of this conversation is also how we as spiritual and conscious healers and helpers sometimes recreate systems of oppression by undercharging for our services. You won't want to miss her holy rant about the important difference between millionaires and billionaires!

This episode is chock full of goodness and light! SooJin and Hannah are joined by Hannah's 8-and-a-half-year-old son (Anthony) for the first part of the episode. He shares what racism is, what we can do to stop it, and what has been helpful for him so far in learning about racism and antiracism. After saying goodbye to Anthony, SooJin and Hannah reflect on Season Two and the major transformations that have taken place within themselves and within their lives. It's clear: both SooJin and Hannah were different people before starting the Antiracist Parenting Podcast. And the work they've put in over the past two years is ushering in all kinds of beautiful possibilities for the future!Resources:Heal Your Way Forward by Myisha T.

Being unaware of people's experiences of inequality like racism or sexism, often inadvertently and unwillingly leads to behaviors that are racist and sexist. We are simply blind to inequality. Being able to learn about inequality without ever having to experience it, is really the ultimate privilege. But just like inequality, when we deny our privilege we are blinded by it. Privilege makes it easy to deny other people's experiences of inequality and keeps us from seeing the workplace in the way others see it. Denial is what keeps inequality alive in workplaces today. When leaders and employees see how being a part of the dominant group gives them access to power and privilege, they will also become aware of the unique position they are in to dismantle the very inequality they benefit from. In 2018, anti-racism guide and mental health activist Myisha T. Hill launched the Check Your Privilege movement on Instagram. This is a global movement that supports individuals on their journey to becoming actively anti-racist. In just over three short years, it amassed 750,000 followers and became a sought-after hub for interracial activism during 2020's ongoing wave of civil unrest. In her upcoming book, Heal Your Way Forward: The Co-Conspirator's Guide to an Antiracist Future, Myisha shares her perspective and asks this critical question of antiracism work: what do we want the world to look like in 7 generations? On today's episode, Myisha shares how we can all take action to check our privilege and tackle systemic racism and prejudices. Instagram: @myishathill Website: checkyourprivilege

Creating safe spaces to dialogue, learn and heal are necessary in our communities. In this episode, I chat with two individuals who are dong just that. Darius White is a first-generation college graduate turned English teacher with both a bachelor's and master's degree from Stanford University. Almost a decade into teaching, he works as a full-time high school English teacher in the San Francisco Bay Area as well as serves as a board member for the San Francisco Education Fund, which aims to support students and families in the local public school system. He uses his classroom and social media platforms to invite activists, advocates, allies, and educators into radical collaboration, inclusion, and liberation work. Lastly, when he is not lesson-planning or grading, he is working on sharing his experiences as a Black male educator on his personal blog, www.justblackthoughts.com.

It's Women's History month and in this minisode we are honoring and learning about the first female Chief of the Cherokee nation, Wilma Mankiller. Shout out to Myisha T. Hill and her awesome group, Check Your Privilege, for putting her on our radar. We highly encourage you to follow @ckyourprivilege on Instagram and sign up for Myisha's amazing courses to advance your anti-racism journey. We get awe-inspired by the incredible journey of Mankiller and her community strengthening and building work and then we contrast it with super-buzzkill and current South Dakota governor Kristi Noem. If Mankiller is our inspiration for good and worthy work, Noem is the cautionary tale of modern day white lady fuckery. So listen up today, and then keep learning and uplifting the stories of Brown, Black, Asian, Indigenous, Pacific Islander, trans, and differently-abled women and femmes throughout this month and always!
Tune in to our final reflection for BHM with Myisha T. Hill of Check Your Privilege.

Episode Description: This week we are talking about more than self care, we’re talking about SOUL CARE. Myisha T. Hill, mental health advocate, social entrepreneur and founder of Check Your Privilege, joins me to discuss the upcoming election and how she is compassionately dismantling power, privilege and oppression amongst us white folx. Myisha, who is on the FBI watch list for fighting for what’s right, explains how NOT VOTING is NOT AN OPTION and why TWO BATHS A DAY is exactly what we need right now!

It was my honor to talk with Myisha T. Hill today, and I am grateful for her openness, in our conversation about mental health. This was personal for both of us. Although we have both struggled with mental illness, our experiences within the healthcare system have been very different. In today’s episode we are talking about cultural competency, diagnosis, treatment, and cultural stigmas towards mental illness. Myisha T is a mental health activist, speaker, and entrepreneur passionate about mental wellness and empowerment for women. In 2018, Myisha became curious about white women and privilege after ending a relationship with a co-worker that negatively impacted her mental health. This led her to identify her own internalized oppression and racism. Not interested in throw-away culture, she decided to seek out safe ways that white folks are showing up for BIWoC. During Minority Mental Health Awareness Month, Myisha began her Check Your Privilege interview series inquiring into the work some white women are doing to show up safely for BIPoC and move beyond passive ally-ship to action driven co-conspirators. Myisha works with organizations and community groups taking white people on a self-reflective journey exploring their relationship with power, privilege, and racism. You can connect with Myisha T. Hill through Facebook, Instagram and LinkedIn Check Your Privilege Brown Sister Speak Anti-Racism Courses from Myisha T. Hill Contribute to the Brown Sisters Speak Therapy Fund
In this episode of Broadening the Narrative, I talked with my best friend Kate Jaco. We discussed becoming boundaried and shared about our journeys toward developing boundaries alongside one another. Kate is an Enneagram 9, one of the most generous people I know, and a delightful human being. I hope that if you know and love me you can engage with the Broadening the Narrative blog, social media accounts, and podcast, as well as any recommended resources. Then, you can share with people who know and love you, and little by little, person by person, we can broaden the narrative.

We went into this podcast with a commitment to bringing up how racism and white supremacy intersect with feminist parenting. But, as white people, we are definitely going to mess up along our journey in doing antiracist work - and we did. In our Episode 4: Play, we had a discussion about Black baby dolls and Santa Claus that was problematic. Our intention was to be pro-Black, but it was actually tokenizing and harmful. In this episode, we talk with Myisha T. Hill, a Black anti-racist educator, advocate, entrepreneur, and mother to three boys. She helps us talk through what happened, how we can repair harm in times like these, and how we can do better. Note for our listeners of color: This episode might feel very white-centered and so may not be useful for you. We wanted to give you a heads up so that you can bow out now if this will be triggering or just doesn't feel like it's relevant. About our guest: Myisha T. Hill is an anti racism educator, advocate, and entrepreneur. Most recently seen on CNN and NBC for her revolutionary work with her brand https://checkyourprivilege.co/ (Check Your Privilege). Through courses and community Myisha is on a journey to change the narrative around white privilege. When not working to change the world we live in she can be found in Oakland, California mothering her three beautiful children and supporting social justice through her non profit organization Brown Sisters Speak. Find more about Myisha, buy her book, or join her community at https://checkyourprivilege.co/ (https://checkyourprivilege.co/) Take Action: Please join us in emailing the publisher, http://www.beacon.org/How-to-Be-Less-Stupid-About-Race-P1388.aspx (Beacon Press), to ask why they appear to be publicizing the book, White Fragility, which was written by a white woman (Robin DiAngelo) more so than the book, https://www.mahoganybooks.com/9780807050774 (How to Be Less Stupid about Race), which was written by a Black woman (Crystal Marie Fleming). Beacon Press is the publisher of both books. In recent months, White Fragility appears to have gotten more attention than How to Be Less Stupid About Race. We all need to be amplifying Black authors like Crystal Marie Fleming right now. Email address: publicity@beacon.org. Reflection Question: How do you define being pro-Black in your life and parenting? What does it look like for you? Note: We hired Myisha as a consultant to advise us on this issue and be interviewed on our podcast. We believe in paying Black anti-racist educators for their labor in teaching white people how do repair harm and do better.

Myisha T. Hill wears a lot of titles -- single mom, a speaker, an activist for Mental Health, an author… That list continues on, and yet she’s found a way to do those things well, and even thrive in each area. You might quickly think, wow, she’s got balance figured out, but that’s not what she teaches. Myisha is a life synergist, and through her work she debunks the myth of work/life balance, leading her students to find SYNERGY instead. If burn out, overwhelm, and confusion seems to narrate your life or business, this interview with Myisha will explore why you might be feeling that way, and how you can navigate out of it. Myisha is also a guide for those navigating their anti-racism journey, and she shares actionable strategies for starting or continuing this important work.
