After a deserved winter break We Walk The Earth is back with a brand new season and an enhanced team. We are very excited to keep on evolving, creating and sharing our curiosity. We live in a world that is incredibly visual, yet sometimes we forget to stop and listen. As society has grown, we've allowed ourselves to become numb to the sounds around us. Are we able to reconnect with the planet and ground ourselves again? In this episode, Sergio Isauro sits down with Alexa Gantous — a creative strategist focused on ecological innovation and cultural systems change. Through the medium of sound and design, Alexa creates beautiful works that share her passion for the environment in a digestible form available for everyone. Her latest project, Suena, is described as like a piece of poetry exploring the sounds of nature and the wisdom it has to share with us. She is also the host of trashtalk*studio podcast, which explores the emotional, cultural and spiritual dimensions of ecological consciousness.  Opening up about the importance that yoga and spirituality has played in her life, Alexa explains the deep connection she has with the world around her to better connect her mind, mind and heart, and why she believes it's an important form of spirituality that has been lost in today's busy world.  You can explore more about Alexa's projects by listening to the trashtalk*studio podcast, following her latest project on Instagram (@suena_____), watching her captivating TEDx Talk, or reading her articles on mindbodygreen.

After a deserved winter break We Walk The Earth is back with a brand new season and an enhanced team. We are very excited to keep on evolving, creating and sharing our curiosity. In this episode, Maxima Simons, founder of women's network Wumanas, aviation pioneer, mother and good friend of the show, joins Sergio Isauro to share her experience of living in a world where archaic attitudes and behaviours towards gender and sexuality continue to dictate many areas — from politics to education to the day-to-day workplace.  What does it mean to live as a woman in 21st century society? Does discrimination and bias continue to plague our world? Is genuine change happening to redistribute power and create greater equality for minority groups? Opening up about her life experiences and the discrimination she has faced throughout her career, Maxima has made it her life ambition to shape change across society and empower women to find their voice. Through her mentorship programme, Young Wumanas, Maxima provides a safe space for young women to ask questions and explore their sexuality and rights; giving them the opportunity to re-discover who they are and encouraging them to express themselves through creative thinking.  The music for this podcast is produced by Tejedor.

Sofía Benedicto is on a mission to make the world a better place. As the co-founder of Nodalab, a podcast production company, she's providing a platform for independent creators in the Latin American (LATAM) market. She's also our guide during our visit to Mexico as the next stop on our 12-country audio tour this season.   No topic is off the table! In this episode, Sofía shares what makes Mexico, particularly Mexico City, such an attractive hub for entrepreneurs, technologists, and expats. We also have a candid discussion about political corruption, drug cartels, and how important it is to speak Spanish if you are serious about doing business in Mexico.   Her professional niche lies at the intersection of politics and business. This enables Sofía to give an interesting, historical perspective not just on the small business climate in Mexico, but throughout LATAM.     Discover all that Mexico has to offer to aspiring entrepreneurs and founders of emerging small businesses alike who are serious about building a business infrastructure that supports international operations.

A morning running errands and walking in downtown Tequisquiapan, Mexico. A calm energy fills the town´s main square as a few families enjoy the last weeks of summer break, the town feels alive but quiet. Are there any sounds that are similar to ones you hear in your own hometown? Our “Sound Journey” series looks to spark curiosity by immersing us in diverse sonic realities and providing a space for contemplation and presence to be practiced.

Going from never meditating to becoming a “good” mediator is a bit like going from never lifting weights to becoming a bodybuilder. It takes time and consistency (and lots of reps!) to build the habit.

Special thanks to the entire Coa crew! JUMP STRAIGHT INTO: (01:20) - Alessandra on being diagnosed with Bipolar 1 Disorder - “It was this juxtaposition of like ‘Wow, I'm finally happy that I know what I am, but I can't share this with the world so I'm going to have to suffer in silence.'” (9:18) - The first time Alessandra talked about mental health in public - “Once the first two questions were done, I was like ‘Okay, this is weird. What do we talk about now?' I was supposed to be holding a town hall for an hour, so I said, ‘I'm Alessandra. I'm Bipolar. Does anyone have any questions on mental health?'” (13:44) - Opening up about her condition in an audition - “I said, ‘I want to thank you so much. I live with Bipolar Disorder and I've never read something on a script, never read words that have affected me so much, that have been said so beautifully.'” (17:32) - What Bipolar Disorder feels like to Alessandra - “I didn't pick the best job for mental illness, but I can't imagine doing anything else. So I think that the drive that I have for the continuing of the rejection is what keeps me going.” (22:08) - Alessandra's fanbase and the special connection between Sci-Fi and mental health - “Every single person that I met at this convention, they shared their stories, their families' stories about mental health, about their journeys, about alcoholism, drug addiction, everything. They're just open beings.” (25:26) - Alessandra's advice for people speaking openly about their mental health struggles - “You have to be ready. You have to have a support system that's behind you because if you get a negative reaction, you need to know that there is someone there that you can talk to about it. To brush it off.”

Many of our fears as adults are holdovers from childhood. As a child, you likely had limited choices around what your life looked like (for example, it might not have been possible to remove yourself from an unsafe environment or to find friends who felt like a good fit). The good news is that as adults we have new tools and choices to design our life and to confront our fears. In this Emotional Push-Up featuring PR expert Courtney Hamilton, we explore how we can put ourselves in healthier situations and face what we're afraid of head on. Thank you for listening!

Sergio Isauro is joined in conversation with Kenny Galloway, who works in his local school district providing bilingual education, community welfare, and social-emotional development support for the emergent English immigrant students, their families, and his fellow teachers and administrators across the district. Kenny describes himself as a professional generalist - with an extensive background in management consulting and campaign management throughout Mexico, Central, and South America. He has visited over 40 countries for work, graduate studies, field research, and exploration. In addition to his professional career, he has undertaken numerous passion projects, including serving as a Peace Corps Volunteer, wine industry journalist, and community event producer. Building upon his corporate and government background, Kenny spent the past 10 years planning a complete transition out of business and politics and dedicating his efforts solely to his true passions...music, community outreach, and bilingual education, which ultimately guided him back to his hometown of Worthington, Ohio. Kenny is fluent in Spanish and proficient in French, but due to a 337% growth in Portuguese-speaking students, he will spend his entire Summer break in Rio de Janeiro, studying Portuguese full-time, to properly support the growing Brazilian population in Central Ohio.

Jorge Gonzalez, Founder at Nodalab joins Graham Brown in this episode of The Age of Audio. The Age of Audio is a series of conversations with thought leaders and changemakers in the world of audio. Podcasts, Radio, Social Audio and Data are converging to create engaging and authentic content for a new generation of listeners. To get access to all the audio conversations and book content for Age of Audio, go to theageofaudio.com.Show Highlights: We're seeing the emergence of networks with big budgets and so these networks can create high quality shows. Now you're seeing Spanish audiences, like a booming period where we're seeing a lot of new companies like podcast networks. Just New in the game and doing a lot of high quality shows. Now you're seeing that trend shift toward, people who are listening to podcasts in Spanish because they're getting that good, and that's had like a domino effect where now, we can see that more people like famous people are getting into it. You're seeing a lot of interview style podcasts, you're seeing a lot of cross-promotion so you can see the same guy being interviewed by all of the podcasters and definitely there's a scene where there are some key players that are cross-promoting between each other and comedians, you see a lot of comedians guys who were doing stand ups and who had their Netflix specials. They're very likely to have a podcast as well. I think podcasting can bring us a perspective into different areas of Mexico and the stories that you wouldn't otherwise listen to. Being an audio guy, I think that there is very rich sound design storytelling. That's what really excites me the most. And I think these mediums give you a limitless canvas of exploration. Like you can do anything to you. And that's one of the things I love the most.

Behind the complexity of artificial intelligence, there are groundbreaking stories like that of AI and robotics expert, entrepreneur and investor Eric Daimler.  Eric joins this episode of Before IT Happened to tell us all about his journey from being an entrepreneurial engineering student who found massive success before hitting his twenties to advising former president Barack Obama's administration on how to regulate and develop AI and data infrastructure. Are we adapting or adopting? Listen for Eric's answer and more! Before any world-changing innovation, there was a moment, an event, a realization that sparked the idea before it happened. This is a podcast about that moment — about that idea. Before IT Happened takes you on a journey with the innovators who imagined — and are still imagining — our future. Join host Donna Loughlin as her guests tell their stories of how they brought their visions to life.  JUMP STRAIGHT INTO: (01:52) - Growing up in a basement surrounded by computers: “My aspirations were Bill Gates, Steve Jobs and Mitch Kapor. Those were actually three faces I literally had in my high school locker.” (08:19) - Eric's college experience at Carnegie Mellon: “I demonstrated the ability of a personal computer at that time to have a cheap robotic arm do its thing. I wanted to do robotics at an early age.” (11:44) - Dropping a PhD program and moving to London for work at 18: “As a young kid, I was able to buy my first Porsche, which is some sort of an accomplishment for a boy.” (17:46) - Studying two PhDs simultaneously while running a company: “If you looked at the flight, whether it was going to Pittsburgh from Silicon Valley, I was probably the only one on that flight doing machine learning problem sets.” (21:54) - Explaining why AI is the economic engine of the future: “It's often said that every company is a data company. It's not really just the data, it's that what you learn from the data and getting even more precise, it's in the data relationships” (28:04) - Machine intelligence and robotics at the White House: “I was just motivated really to serve the country. It was a pay cut, a substantial pay cut, but my father and my brother had served in the military” (33:40) - Eric's advice on how to apply AI in a safe way: “This is a big deal. It's a national imperative, maybe even saying a Western civilization imperative that everybody is involved.” EPISODE RESOURCES: Connect with Eric on https://www.linkedin.com/in/ericdaimler (LinkedIn) and https://twitter.com/ead (Twitter) Read: https://ericdaimler.medium.com/dear-mr-president-274d94f91996 (Eric's letter to President Biden on how the U.S. can ‘win the AI race') Learn more about Eric's data consolidation company https://conexus.com/ (Conexus)  Watch Eric's SALT talk: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YP9kodLGvT8 (AI, Robotics & Consciousness) Read Alvin Toffler's 1984 book https://www.amazon.com/Future-Shock-Alvin-Toffler/dp/0553277375/ref=asc_df_0553277375/?tag=hyprod-20&linkCode=df0&hvadid=312519927002&hvpos=&hvnetw=g&hvrand=13524889963189346404&hvpone=&hvptwo=&hvqmt=&hvdev=c&hvdvcmdl=&hvlocint=&hvlocphy=9031945&hvtargid=pla-522053264324&psc=1 (“Future Shock”) Thank you for listening!

Este episodio es una colaboración con Saba, una empresa de Essity. Hablar de menstruación digna es hablar de bienestar. Todxs somos producto de este ciclo capaz de dar vida. La menstruación es un diálogo con nuestros cuerpos que por años ha sido minimizado e invisibilizado.  ¿Cuántas veces hemos escuchado la frase: “Nadie se tiene que enterar de que estás en tus días”? Pero… ¿Quién diría que algo tan “normalizado” como sucio, tendría tanto poder y magia? Observarnos y escucharnos es un acto de amor propio. La sangre que corre entre nuestras piernas nos habla de nuestra salud emocional y física, y es parte de nuestra experiencia como humanos. ¡No más esconder la menstruación por miedo! La desinformación está en todos lados, por eso en este episodio de Entre Tus Piernas exploramos la menstruación junto con dos expertas: la Dra. Alejandra Contreras y Fernanda González. ¿Qué es la menstruación? Y, ¿por qué existe el debate de la menstruación digna?  Las experiencias de las personas menstruantes son muy diversas, desde mujeres cis género, hasta personas trans o no binarias, pasando por personas en situación de calle o encarcelamiento. Todas merecen dignidad, desde tener acceso a privacidad, hasta agua, jabón y los productos de higiene necesarios.  Suscríbete a nuestro newsletter en www.entretuspiernas.com  Sigue nuestras redes sociales para más recursos visuales sobre los temas que tocamos en el podcast Twitter e Instagram Este es un podcast producido por Nodalab y Caldero.

Building a meaningful business while living your best life and traveling the world is not easy. In this episode of Before IT Happened, our host Donna Loughlin tells the story of social entrepreneur and philanthropist Jamie Bianchini, who biked through over 80 countries around the world for eight years with a friend calling themselves the ‘Peace Pedalers.'

Today's episode is perfect for Thanksgiving — a story about kindness, love, and the power of giving. In this episode of Before IT Happened, our host Donna Loughlin talks to author, speaker, and advocate Genevieve Piturro. After a 12-year career as a corporate climber in New York City, Genevieve started visiting shelters to read to children. Soon she realized something, these children needed pajamas. Since 2001, Genevieve's nonprofit Pajama Program has given over 7 million books and pajamas to children in need in the US. This is a story about finding purpose and getting to that aha moment that can change your life. Listen now to learn how this one-time corporate executive turned her life around after discovering the power behind the love and comfort behind a pair of pajamas.   Before any world-changing innovation, there was a moment, an event, a realization that sparked the idea before it happened. This is a podcast about that moment — about that idea. Before IT Happened takes you on a journey with the innovators who imagined — and are still imagining — our future. Join host Donna Loughlin as her guests tell their stories of how they brought their visions to life.  JUMP STRAIGHT INTO: (01:24) - Leaving the nest with traditional Italian-American parents - “Mary Tyler Moore was what really cemented being a corporate girl. I wanted what she had. She was making her way in a big city. For her it was Minneapolis, for me it was New York.” (07:35) - Diving into the radio & TV industry - “The TV people were coming in and they were always wondering, ‘What are you doing overnight?' I told them about my TV aspirations and I got hired.” (10:37) - A great 12-year corporate career and the ‘Aha!' moment - “I heard a question asked by me to me: ‘If this is the next 30 years of your life is this enough?'” (17:17) - The beginning of the pajama program - “Maybe it's like a mom feeling when they have little ones and can't wait to get back from work to spend time with them.” (22:42) - Giving up a corporate career for a new passion - “I would have been fired if I didn't finally leave. I just couldn't say no to the request to visit and to bring pajamas. And I had to leave early because I had to go shopping.” (28:11) - Taking the pajama program to the next level - “The woman said, ‘I'm so-and-so from the Oprah Winfrey show. Do you have a minute?' And half of me was screaming up and down.” (34:49) - Genevieve's book: Purpose, Passion and Pajamas - “I've learned it's not the power of one that changes things. It's the power of one another that moves mountains and moves people.

First, we had The Beatles, then we had the 80s New Wave, and now we have The 2 LADS, a couple of young expat British artists in Los Angeles whose life mission is to advocate for mental health and the well-being of men across the world. In this episode of Before IT Happened, our host Donna Loughlin sits down with Daniel Sharman and Christian “Leggy” Langdon, creators and hosts of The 2 LADS Podcast. Donna gets the pair to open up about their upbringing, life experiences, emotional growth, spiritual wellness, and the importance of intimacy and community building for men. The world is reframing the way we approach mental health, and our society finally understands that it is okay, and even crucial, that we give men permission to be vulnerable. Join in!  Before any world-changing innovation, there was a moment, an event, a realization that sparked the idea before it happened. This is a podcast about that moment — about that idea.

I looked up to them and wanted to follow in their footsteps.” (15:41) - How the 2 LADS met - “He actually just showed up on my doorstep and was like, ‘I'm fucked. I heard you're fucked too. Do you want to talk?'” (21:51) - The 2 LADS Podcast: On mental health and the building safe spaces for men - “I've actually seen how much deep need there is for men to be intimate with each other and to show love, and to have that trust with other men.”  (30:09) - Unscripted & Unplugged: The importance of embracing humanity - “No one should be following anybody, the work starts with you, and I have to name it in order to be more honest, more human, and hopefully other people can do this.” (37:12) - “We go first”: The impact of being vulnerable - “We're putting the weapons down for a moment and saying, ‘Oh God, isn't it weird being human?

¿Por qué romantizamos el sacrificio? ¿Para ser amadxs? Regresamos con la segunda parte de esta exploración histórica, social y espiritual del amor romántico. Esta vez María Andrea y la psicóloga Eva Latapí desmenuzan las ideas detrás de uno de los pilares del amor romántico: el sacrificio.  Existen UN MILLÓN de mecanismos de control que intentan hacernos mujeres serviciales, maternales y “buenas”. Según la sociedad sacrificarse es mostrar nuestro amor a los demás, pero como dice Silvia Federici “eso que llaman amor, es trabajo no pago”.

Today everything in a car is smart, from the tires to the windshields. But there is something that is still just an ugly piece of metal, your license plate. In this episode of Before IT Happened, our host Donna Loughlin tells the story of Neville Boston, Founder, and CSO at Reviver, a disruptive company that is modernizing license plates from a piece of metal to a fully interactive screen with state-of-the-art technology. “Embrace change” is Neville's mindset and it shows in his life story, from his entrepreneurial background to shifting careers and all the way to bringing the license plate to the 21st century. Listen now and learn how this born entrepreneur is bringing to life a company of the future! Before any world-changing innovation, there was a moment, an event, a realization that sparked the idea before it happened. This is a podcast about that moment — about that idea. Before IT Happened takes you on a journey with the innovators who imagined — and are still imagining — our future. Join host Donna Loughlin as her guests tell their stories of how they brought their visions to life.  JUMP STRAIGHT INTO: (01:48) - Neville's childhood in an entrepreneurial family - “Success wasn't tied to working for somebody else. It was tied to creating something of need and of interest and building on that.”  (07:49) - Going to UC Berkeley - “You got to see things in a way that other people just dream about. And that was part of your reality. So it was awesome.” (14:41) - Getting into marketing and working on building company experiences - “That was around the Oscars, Grammys, Super Bowl, NBA All-Star, you name it. We would develop all of these items and ideas for them.” (19:49) - The potential of digital license plates and getting the business going - “We were forced, hampered, and shackled to a metal plate when everything else on the car, including the tires in the windshield, are smart. It made no sense.” (28:38) - Expanding the platform's functionalities - “There are 1,000,001 things you can do with this platform, because it's always on and connected, so you have a way of pushing information and collecting information back.” (32:06) - Finding the right team to make his dreams a reality - “We've been working with some of the largest fleet management companies in the world. And it looks like this could be a big thing for us and them.” (40:13) - Privacy and safe transfer of information - “We engage the DMV to verify the license plate number and that it's valid. So there's no more data than that information.” EPISODE RESOURCES Connect with Neville through https://www.linkedin.com/in/neville-boston-6a308861/ (LinkedIn) and https://twitter.com/ntboston1?lang=en (Twitter) Learn more about https://reviver.com/ (Reviver's Rplate ) READ: https://www.bizjournals.com/sacramento/news/2021/08/26/neville-boston-reviver-digital-license-plates.html (Digital license plate entrepreneur got government buy-in) SEE: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xX6Z5uuWn5s (Neville's interview with Automotive Expert and Car-Talk Host Bobby Likis) Thank you for listening!

Healthy eating has become a multimillion-dollar business. But there's one superfood that hasn't gotten the recognition it deserves. In this episode of Before IT Happened, our host Donna Loughlin talks to a pioneer in the plant-based health movement, Doug Evans, co-founder of Organic Avenue, founder of Juicero, and the author of The Sprouts Book. Doug talks about his latest work, advocating for sprouts — the simple and cheap food he calls “the ultimate superfood.” Could these tiny living seeds be the answer to the world's food crisis? Listen now and learn how the entrepreneurial spirit has caught on to the healthy food trend and what's coming in the near future for this market. Before any world-changing innovation, there was a moment, an event, a realization that sparked the idea before it happened. This is a podcast about that moment — about that idea. Before IT Happened takes you on a journey with the innovators who imagined — and are still imagining — our future. Join host Donna Loughlin as her guests tell their stories of how they brought their visions to life.  JUMP STRAIGHT INTO: (01:58) - Doug's childhood growing up on the standard American Diet - “I remember sneaking into the kitchen in the middle of the night and eating the whole Philadelphia cream cheese, just wanting more fat and more sugar.” (08:16) - Enrolling in the Army - “My thought process was that it would be fun. I would get into shape. I would learn discipline. I would save all of my money. And when I got out, I could do whatever I wanted.” (13:27) - Graphic design and working for Paul Rand - “I watched an entire industry shift from analog to digital, from black and white to color, and watched the proliferation of the desktop computer obliterate an entire industry.” (19:33) - A wake-up call - “I went from eating a duck off the street in Chinatown to vegetarian, then vegan and raw vegan. And that was 22 years ago.” (25:58) - Chasing the gold rush with Organic Avenue and Juicero - “What we had done with Juicero was the experience of making a fresh, raw, organic juice in two minutes with no setup, no cleanup and the freshest produce.” (34:22) - Discovering the power of sprouts - “In the course of me moving to the desert, I started to sprout and within 30 days, most of my calories were coming from sprouts that I was growing in one cubic foot.” (44:47) - How you can start sprouting today - “You can grow sprouts without soil, sunshine, sprouting medium, etc. You could literally grow them in a jar or unbleached paper towel with water for pennies a serving.” EPISODE RESOURCES: Connect with Doug through https://twitter.com/iamdougevans?lang=en (Twitter) and https://www.instagram.com/dougevans/?hl=en (Instagram) Get Doug's book https://www.amazon.com/-/es/Doug-Evans/dp/1250226171/ref=sr_1_2?crid=2VG740TQ2XL9Q&dchild=1&ie=UTF8&keywords=doug%20evans%20sprouting%20book&language=en_US&qid=1632658157&sprefix=doug%20evans%20spr%2Caps%2C411&sr=8-2 (The Sprout Book) Read the Beet's https://thebeet.com/doug-evans-on-the-health-benefits-of-sprouting-and-why-you-should-start/ (Doug Evans on the Health Benefits of Sprouting and Why You Should Start) Thank you for listening!

Over the last couple of decades, humanity has experienced a tremendous rate of disruption. How can we understand and adapt to the ever-changing world we live in? In this episode of Before IT Happened, Donna talks to Eric Pilon-Bignell, an engineer and author whose ideas are revolutionizing both the present and the future. Eric, an expert on change and how we respond to it, is the author of the book Surfing Rogue Waves, a doctoral thesis turned into a best-selling manuscript on adapting to the waves of change and learning to surf through disruption. Listen now to hear about what keeps this thought-leader up at night.  Before any world-changing innovation, there was a moment, an event, a realization that sparked the idea before it happened. This is a podcast about that moment — about that idea. Before IT Happened takes you on a journey with the innovators who imagined — and are still imagining — our future. Join host Donna Loughlin as her guests tell their stories of how they brought their visions to life.  JUMP STRAIGHT INTO: (01:47) - Who is Eric Pilon-Bignell? A pragmatic futurist who is looking to explain the world's wave of change - “We've got this robust pipeline of disruption and it's going to make for some of the craziest surfing conditions we've ever faced.” (05:45) - Eric's academic path and his discovery of knowledge - “I got some great advice from my dad, he said you can always go be an engineer and then decided to go into business later.”  (09:55) - The entrepreneurial years, Indiana Institute of Technology, and a newfound love for surfing  - “There's this constant parallel that I was starting to pull together between surfing in life and surfing in business.” (13:36) - Eric's doctoral thesis and how it turned into a best-seller about surfing - “I wanted to make it digestible, I don't want it to be an academic read. I don't want it to be boring. So I found that the parallels of surfing were really perfect.” (20:32) - The complexity of today's problems and how we can understand disruption - “Look into the impossible problems of today and what they're going to look like tomorrow… The future generations are going to fix the impossible problems of today with ease.” (25:48) - The process of writing and rewriting the book - “I had a bit more fun because I could put in much more real-world examples of where we're seeing this happen. Whereas you can't give a great everyday example in your dissertation.” (28:49) - The fourth industrial revolution: Can we know when the next wave is coming? - “We have to start talking about it now. It's not all developers or academics or theorists. It's you, me, and anyone else.” EPISODE RESOURCES: Connect with Eric through https://twitter.com/EricPBme (Twitter), https://www.instagram.com/ericpb.me/ (Instagram) and http://ericpb.me/ (Ericpb.me) Get Eric's book https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0934WSJCW/ref=dbs_a_def_rwt_bibl_vppi_i0?tag=scribemedia-20&geniuslink=true (Surfing Rogue Waves: How to paddle out into the 21st Century) Learn more about http://ericpb.me/project7 (Project7) supporting brain research Read Forbe's https://www.forbes.com/sites/serenitygibbons/2021/06/22/10-authors-that-will-make-you-rethink-small-decisions/?sh=3fab53d67009 (10 Authors That Will Make You Rethink Small Decisions) Read BBC's https://www.bbc.com/news/business-58235479 (Bezos sues Nasa over its deal with Elon Musk's SpaceX) Thank you for listening!

In a world where 45% of hires fail within the first 18 months, matching talent to the perfect workplace is almost magic. In this episode of Before It Happened, our host Donna Loughlin tells the story of Mike Fitzsimmons, co-founder and CEO of Crosschq, a cloud-based service that combines human intelligence and AI to reinvent how companies hire. Crosschq's mission is to better match companies and talent through what it calls human intelligence. The idea is that a good hire helps both the employer and the employee, plus it leaves a positive impact on the community.  Listen now and learn how Mike is revolutionizing the art of hiring by putting the human factor back into human resources! Before any world-changing innovation, there was a moment, an event, a realization that sparked the idea before it happened. This is a podcast about that moment — about that idea. Before IT Happened takes you on a journey with the innovators who imagined — and are still imagining — our future. Join host Donna Loughlin as her guests tell their stories of how they brought their visions to life. Jump straight into: (01:40) - Mike's youth, college inspiration, and his very first job at Circuit City — “I signed up immediately and a few weeks after college, I was on my way to open up a call center.” (07:25) - Why hiring is so hard and the birth of Crosschq — “Hiring and retaining talent is hard, you learn that pretty early if you're aware and paying attention.” (13:50) - Poor hiring is a worldwide issue — “You should stop reporting on quantity and then filling seats quickly. We have to start thinking about quality.” (18:03) - Human Intelligence Hiring — How Crosschq helps companies find the best talent -  “We get content and data from people, for people and convert that into actionable data and insights that companies can use.” (22:11) - Bias vs. Equity: How to neutralize profiling — “Age, ethnicity, sex. All of those biases still exist. We're going to help bring data to the table to help convince companies and lead them to try to reduce as much of that bias as they can.”  (25:15) - COVID-19 and the impact Crosschq has had on the community — “We provide our service for free to companies like 70 million jobs, which is the leading platform for Anti-Recidivism in the US. We're trying to help people that are trying to help themselves.” (31:10) - What Mike has learned from the pandemic — “I've been just so impressed by how absolutely tough all of us are and how everybody's persevered.” (33:27) - Changing the culture within companies — “We have to be hyper-aware at keeping folks engaged and engaging in a real and meaningful fashion.” Episode resources Connect with Mike on https://twitter.com/MikeRFitz (Twitter) and https://www.linkedin.com/in/michael-fitzsimmons-a3698/ (LinkedIn) Learn more about Mike's company https://www.crosschq.com/ (Crosschq) Read https://medium.com/authority-magazine/michael-fitzsimmons-of-crosschq-5-things-i-wish-someone-told-me-before-i-began-leading-my-company-97e82416105f (Michael Fitzsimmons of Crosschq: 5 Things I Wish Someone Told Me Before I Began Leading My Company) Read https://natfluence.com/interview/mike-fitzsimmons-crosschq/ (Mike's interview) with Natfluence See Mike's profile on the https://www.forbes.com/profile/michael-fitzsimmons/?list=next-1000&sh=f3eef738529d (Forbes Next 1000) list Before IT Happened is produced by Donna Loughlin and https://www.studiopodsf.com/ (Studio Pod Media) with additional editing and sound design by https://nodalab.com/ (Nodalab).

Who is going to be the first human to step on Mars? In this episode of Before IT Happened, Donna speaks with Pamela Greyer, an atypical character to this show but a visionary in her own right. Known as “The NASA Lady,” Pamela is neither an astronaut nor an engineer. Pam is a teacher whose mission is to bring STEM education closer to black and brown kids — especially girls — through the majesty and wonder of space. Listen now and learn how this lover of science and technology is opening up the minds of the next generation of engineers, mathematicians, and space travelers! Before any world-changing innovation, there was a moment, an event, a realization that sparked the idea before it happened. This is a podcast about that moment — about that idea.

Sometimes to give meaning to our work, we need to remember who we are and where we came from. In this episode of Before It Happened, Donna speaks with Praveen Penmetsa, co-founder and CEO of two groundbreaking startups — one of which is revolutionizing the agricultural industry.  While Praveen's love for cars and engineering brought him to the United States, it was his family's farming background in India that gave him the idea for Monarch Tractor. Through his newest venture, Praveen and his team have developed the first electric tractor that can also produce enough energy to power a home. As Praveen likes to say, Monarch is “the bridge between farm sustainability and farm economics in one product.”  Listen now and learn how every moment of this engineer's life — from his childhood in Southern India poring over American auto magazines to working on race cars in Huntington Beach — led to his revolutionary idea for the future of farming.  Before any world-changing innovation, there was a moment, an event, a realization that sparked the idea before it happened. This is a podcast about that moment — about that idea. Before IT Happened takes you on a journey with the innovators who imagined — and are still imagining — our future. Join host Donna Loughlin as her guests tell their stories of how they brought their visions to life. Jump straight into: (00:53) - Praveen's Agricultural background and his interest in cars and technology - “I would have all these dreams of, ‘Oh yeah I've got to go to California and drive these fast cars and play with all of this high-tech,' from quiet old computer magazines and car magazines.” (04:15) - Finding his first job after graduation - “I threw everything I owned into my car and drove across the country for two days nonstop to start work at Huntington Beach.” (09:26) - Praveen's first startup: Accelerating high-technology products to the market - “It was super cool to have a car that I touched and worked on on the cover of Road & Track, a magazine that I used to buy on the sidewalks in India for like 10 rupees.” (12:52) - Monarch: The first electric tractor comes to life - “It definitely was the first lithium-ion tractor that could also power things. So not only could it be charged from a solar panel directly, we had power plugs that we could power things off the tractor.'” (19:23) - Helping farmers worldwide and pushing agriculture forward - “We see ourselves as a bridge between farm economics and sustainability. It's the one thing, probably the only thing that connects farm sustainability and farm economics in one product.” (24:38) - How to make it through the pandemic - “At a time of COVID where most businesses are shut down, farmers were very impacted because of the supply chain disruptions.” (27:05) - The tractor's reception: Would Elon Musk like it? - “I don't know what our Silicon Valley leaders would think about it, but we do know what farmers think about it and we are happy with their reaction.” Episode resources Connect with Praveen on https://www.linkedin.com/in/praveenpenmetsa/ (LinkedIn) See the https://youtu.be/xcpi4vR-_44 (Monarch Tractor in action) Learn more about https://www.monarchtractor.com/ (Monarch Tractor) Follow Monarch Tractor on https://twitter.com/MonarchTractor (Twitter )and https://www.instagram.com/monarch_tractor/?hl=en (Instagram) Learn more about https://www.motivo.com/ (Motivo Engineering)  Read Praveen's interview on the https://medium.com/authority-magazine/praveen-penmetsa-of-monarch-tractor-and-motivo-engineering-5-things-we-must-do-to-inspire-the-815707d642a1 (5 Things We Must Do To Inspire The Next Generation About Sustainability And The Environment) Before IT Happened is produced by Donna Loughlin and https://www.studiopodsf.com/ (Studio Pod Media) with additional editing and sound design by https://nodalab.com/ (Nodalab).

Hay muchos niveles en los que podríamos analizar la belleza. Desde la práctica más común de depilarnos las axilas y maquillarnos, hasta el rol que juega en el orden social. La belleza, así como otros cánones, sirve para mantener el estatus quo y a las personas poderosas en el poder.  El estándar de belleza que tenemos es eurocentrista, es decir, la belleza todavía es blanca, de facciones finas y ojos de color. Vendiendonos esta idea, la industria de la belleza se ha hecho multimillonaria. Todo se trata de vender una felicidad aspiracional. Pensamos que solamente las personas bellas pueden divertirse, ser exitosas y encontrar el amor.  En este episodio, Maria Andrea reflexiona a partir de su propia experiencia en este mundo y cómo es que la idea de belleza nos ha venido a joder la vida a las mujeres. Porque para ser dignas de respeto y valor en esta sociedad, las mujeres tenemos que verse bonitas para los hombres. Para hablar más a fondo, María Andrea invitó a Michelle González, actriz, escritora y productora mexicana. Michelle nos comparte su experiencia dentro de la industria de la actuación y abre un tema importante: el color de la piel en México. ¿Por qué estamos representados en los medios con personas blancas si el 85% de la población es de piel morena?

Si crees en garantizar derechos reproductivos para las mujeres, eres parte de la marea verde.  Dedicamos los últimos dos episodios de esta temporada a hablar del aborto desde distintos puntos de vista, pero definitivamente no podíamos cerrar el tema sin un buen chal al respecto. En este episodio de Entre Tu Piernas, platico sabroso con las tocayas, Sofía Benedicto y Sofía Alessio integrante de la @mxmareaverde, sobre cómo va el tema del aborto en México, de dónde viene la marea verde, los últimos logros del movimiento y por qué aunque pareciera que los conservadores están ganando terreno, es un grandioso momento para luchas por los derechos de todas las personas en el mundo.  Siguenos en Instagram: @podcastentretuspiernas  Suscríbete a nuestro newsletter y encuentra más recursos y notas del episodio en en www.entretuspiernas.com  Este es un podcast producido por Nodalab y Caldero.

In today’s world, trying to get married has become... a hot mess. So, to all the COVID brides to have been, grooms and wedding professionals: you’re not alone. Welcome to Bride To Have Been, a StudioPod original podcast hosted by Emily Lewis, with the purpose of building a community by sharing the reality of this new normal in the wedding industry. Let’s keep inspiring each other and celebrate the thing we treasure the most: love. Miss Rona couldn’t keep wedding photographer Sara Nobel down for long. Even though nearly 20 of the weddings she had booked last year were cancelled or postponed due to the pandemic, Sara got creative and loaded up her schedule with family photo sessions and found new ways to find last minute wedding bookings. Take a listen to her interview with host Emily Lewis as she explains why low expectations are the key to less disappointment and shares other unexpected outlooks on the global crisis we’ve all been bobbing and weaving our way through over the past year.  Jump straight into: (02:38) - Sara on how she got into wedding photography - “When I realized that you could get paid to go to people's weddings and hang out and take pictures, that was kind of it for me.” (06:34) - Sara’s wedding schedule for 2020 - “I was supposed to have 30 weddings. I was like, ‘This is my year, baby! Let's go!’” (07:04) - How Sara stays positive - “That sadly has been my motto since the third grade, ‘Low expectations, less disappointment.’” (08:29) - How Sara’s year ended up playing out - “I ended up actually shooting like 16—I'm using air quotes—weddings. Some of them five people, some of them 150 people.” (16:36) - Marketing during the pandemic - “A lot of people find me on Instagram. It was a combination of word of mouth, very Yelp and a little bit of Instagram.” (25:37) - Trying to stay safe while working - “I did end up photographing a wedding that I honestly didn't feel super comfortable with.” (28:35) - Trends Sara sees sticking after the pandemic - “It's not about the wedding, it's about the marriage. Like let's get married, let's focus on the future rather than spend our life savings on a Saturday in June.” Resources Follow https://www.instagram.com/saraknobelphoto/ (Sara) on Instagram  See https://saraknobelphoto.com/ (Sara’s work) and learn more about her wedding packages  Thanks for listening!

In today’s world, trying to get married has become... a hot mess. So, to all the COVID brides to have been, grooms and wedding professionals: you’re not alone. Welcome to Bride To Have Been, a StudioPod original podcast hosted by Emily Lewis, with the purpose of building a community by sharing the reality of this new normal in the wedding industry. Let’s keep inspiring each other and celebrate the thing we treasure the most: love. The house can wait and the business stuff can be figured out later, but the memories? That’s what bride Erin and her fiance Kory decided was most important to them. When Erin sat down with host Emily Lewis to trade wedding stories, she said she had to do a lot of soul searching to figure out what she really wanted, and in the end, it was the big wedding with a large guest list. So the couple decided to push their wedding date back a fourth and final time to August 2022, three and a half years after the couple got engaged and two years after their original wedding date, to a time when they hope gathering and celebrating in large groups will feel safe again.  Jump straight into: (07:41) - Erin and Kory’s proposal story - “So we walk over to the Palace of Fine Arts and as we walk in, I'm hearing music, like a string quartet playing, and I start kind of singing along. I'm like, ‘Oh, I know this song.’” (11:48) - On finding a venue early on - “I actually only really looked at one venue, the Bel-Air Bay Club, in the Palisades, and I just fell in love with it.” (12:52) - How Erin reacted to shelter-in place orders due to COVID - “I'm like, ‘Oh God, Oh God, this is not good. I need a backup plan.’” (15:29) - Moving their wedding date back a second time - “I started to go through this process again, reach out to the venue, find out if there are any backup dates, and then at that time they didn't have anything for the rest of 2021.” (21:49) - Deciding to wait another year to have her dream wedding - “I don't know if it's an unpopular opinion or what, maybe it's not practical and maybe it's just like indulgent. I don't know, but it's what I want.” (24:10) - On having to find new vendors for their 4th wedding date - “I need to do a new hair and makeup trial anyway, because I'll be a whole different person three years later. Probably need a lot more help by then.” (25:18) - Being resilient after moving her wedding four times - “I really hardly cried about it. I was just very matter of fact, like, this is what it is. This is what we do.” (32:22) - Trying to brighten other COVID couple’s day - “So what I'm doing in my area is offering any COVID brides and grooms discounts on Invisalign, whitening, braces, whatever they want to get them ready for the wedding.” Resources Follow https://www.instagram.com/drwalkerortho/ (Erin) on Instagram  Book dental treatments with https://www.walker-orthodontics.com/ (Walker Orthodontics)  Book the https://www.belairbayclub.com/ (Bel-Air Bay Club) in Pacific Palisades https://open.spotify.com/episode/5lCCD4Vkl3Esk3bMdmWomZ?si=cYspvouNQhGx2OmDG8J0Yw (Listen) to Emily’s interview with Wedding Planner Jane Gerwin Book a wedding package at https://janealexandraevents.com/ (JaneAlexandra Events) Thanks for listening!

Let’s keep inspiring each other and celebrate the thing we treasure the most: love. From social worker to full time floral designer, Marie Crick was set to have a good year in 2020. But by the time the year was over she had lost half of her weddings. Still, when Bride to Have Been host Emily Lewis sat down with Marie to talk about her experiences navigating the pandemic, her concerns seemed to lie more with her brides. “We all got our fairytale weddings, and they just got screwed,” Crick told Lewis. She also noted that her clients really took her situation into account over the last year, going out of their way to support her and other small businesses. Meanwhile she found ways to pivot her business, focusing on a video series for couples looking to make their own flower arrangements and shifting her energy into individual flower deliveries. Still, as Marie says, it’s been a stay afloat kind of year. Jump straight into: (02:49) - On how Marie got into floral design - “I was working as a social worker with foster kids, and as you can imagine, it was just a little bit of a stressful job. And so I used flowers at the time as a hobby, and they were kind of a healing modality for me.” (04:48) - Trying to become a full time florist  - “I was just finding flower shops and trying to apply, and they weren't impressed with my portfolio.” (12:40) - The trouble with Pinterest boards - “Sometimes I get Pinterest boards from brides and I'm like, that's not a real flower and that's not a real flower and that's been painted and that has a humongous filter on it from the photographer. That's not what it'll actually look like.” (17:17) - Marie’s initial response to shelter in place orders - “I had a bride call me in probably April about her September wedding, and I just thought she was goofy.” (24:37) - Feeling empathy for COVID Brides - “I remember my wedding a few years ago and it was so much work just for one wedding that actually did happen the way that I thought it was going to.” (28:55) - A little silver lining - “Some couples are delighted that COVID happened because it's their excuse not to invite aunt Betsy who drives them up the wall.” Resources Follow https://www.instagram.com/laurel.and.vine/?hl=en (Laurel and Vine) on Instagram  Learn more about Marie’s https://www.laurelandvine.com/diyweddingfloweracademy (Wedding Flower Academy) Follow wedding photographer https://www.instagram.com/reginakpopova/?hl=en (Regina K.

En este episodio de Entre Tus Piernas seguimos hablando de aborto, pero esta vez desde un punto clave: la presión social.  El patrix se nos metió hasta en los calzones y no llenó la cabeza de estigmas que nos afectan, coartan nuestra libertad y hasta nos cuestan la vida. Que si abortar te va a dejar infértil, loca o traumada. Que si tu cuerpo ya no es tuyo, sino del bebé. Que si parir es tu destino biológico…  ¡Mi cuerpo es mío y solo mío y solo mía la decisión! Acompaña a María Andrea a reflexionar a profundidad sobre todos los mitos y prejuicios que existen alrededor de la sexualidad y cómo, gracias a ellos, MILES de personas se ven obligadas a gestar, parir y maternar en contra de su voluntad en gran parte de este país Suscríbete a nuestro newsletter y encuentra más recursos de los episodios en www.entretuspiernas.com  Este es un podcast producido por Nodalab y Caldero.

Welcome to Bride To Have Been, a StudioPod original podcast hosted by Emily Lewis, with the purpose of building a community by sharing the reality of this new normal in the wedding industry. Let’s keep inspiring each other and celebrate the thing we treasure the most: love. In this week’s episode of Bride To Have Been, bride Llanée tells us all about how she had just dropped off her wedding dress for alterations when shelter-in-place orders started dropping. Llanée and her fiance Andrew were set to get married in May 2020 in Jamaica, but the global pandemic forced them to make a new plan. Now the couple is looking forward to tying the knot this summer, and only with a slightly scaled down version of their original tropical vision.  Jump straight into: (07:29) - Llanée and Andrew’s proposal story - “He gets down on his knee and then presents the ring and proposes, and of course everyone is there crying and screaming and recording my reactions.” (11:40) - On Llanée’s wedding vision - “If you had asked when I was a kid what my dream would have been, it would have been, ‘Tropical wedding, not here.’” (13:00) - Trying to process all of the new regulations - “How do you even redesign a wedding based on the fact that you can't have eight people at a table?” (14:09) - On how close Llanée’s wedding was to the onset of the global pandemic - “When the announcement happened, I had just dropped my dress off to be altered.” (23:07) - Getting the dress to fit right after postponing - “My dressmaker, she was just like, ‘Oh, so if you feel like you want to lose a little bit more... don’t.’” (25:25) - Family traditions the couple is looking forward to - “Obviously we can't bring a cake, especially during COVID to Jamaica.” Resources Follow https://www.instagram.com/redwineandcurls/ (Llanée) on Instagram  See Llanée and her fiance Andrew’s https://orbridemag.com/intimate-elopement-trillium-lake (photoshoot in Oregon Bride) Thanks for listening!

In today’s world, trying to get married has become... a hot mess. So, to all the COVID brides to have been, grooms and wedding professionals: you’re not alone. Welcome to Bride To Have Been, a StudioPod original podcast hosted by Emily Lewis, with the purpose of building a community by sharing the reality of this new normal in the wedding industry. Let’s keep inspiring each other and celebrate the thing we treasure the most: love. Christen Monise was tasked with helping hundreds of couples who had booked their big wedding days at Spanish Hills Country Club in Camarillo, California to scale down or postpone their weddings. “The number one question I get is usually related to if they can or can't have their wedding or what that's going to look like, and I wish I could give people the answer. I wish I had a crystal ball,” Monise told Bride To Have Been host Emily Lewis on the podcast. “I’m just a catering girl at a country club.” Monise and her now husband also had to navigate their own nuptials during COVID and managed to stay positive throughout. While it was difficult not to sweat the small stuff, Monise said the micro wedding they opted for exceeded their expectations and they’re looking forward to celebrating their one year anniversary with a slightly expanded guest list.  Jump straight into: (04:40) - How Christen’s husband proposed at Disneyland - “He proposed and right after I said yes and we were hugging or kissing, I hear this woman screaming from far away and like clapping and cheering. And I look around and I'm just like, ‘Oh look, we have fans.’ You know, people like saw us. And then I realized who was screaming and it was my mom.” (08:56) - Planning their wedding during COVID - “Three days after I sent out my wedding invitations is when I found out the Santa Barbara courthouse stopped doing ceremonies.” (12:23) - The Wedding Plan B - “I thought it'd be kind of funny if we read our vows again and just kind of did like a checkup to see how we built out the first year of all these like lofty promises we've made.” (14:08) - Christen reflecting on the most difficult part of getting married during the pandemic - “Not sweating the small stuff was probably the hardest part because you get very emotionally attached to like the flowers that you pick out and the vision that's in your head.” (15:33) - Remaining a team during wedding planning - “This was definitely a first good test for our communication and navigating uncertainty and just collaborating.” (18:20) - On 2020 being set to be a huge year for events - “People just have this superstition almost as far as repeating numbers or even numbers and stuff like that. So it was definitely supposed to be a record year for all kinds of functions.” (33:04) - The biggest questions Christen deals with as a coordinator at a wedding venue - “The number one question I get is, ‘Can I have my wedding?’” (33:55) - On trying to be sensitive to what people are going through - “I try not to do a lot of these tough questions on email because I want them to hear my sincerity and I want to try and convey my positivity.” (34:58) - The direction Christen sees the wedding industry heading in - “Up until the pandemic hit a lot of people would invite like 100 to 200 people, and you think about your circle and who's important to you, and then you get carried away with their plus ones and then you invite all your coworkers, and the next thing you know it kind of turns into this runaway train.” Resources See https://www.instagram.com/spanishhillsspecialevents/ (Spanish Hills) on Instagram  Thanks for listening!

En este episodio de Entre Tus Piernas abordamos un tema espeso y complejo pero MUY necesario: el aborto. ¿Por qué es importante hablar orgullosamente al respecto? Hay muchas razones para abortar como la violación o el riesgo médico, pero muchas de nosotras lo hacemos simplemente porque no queremos gestar, parir y maternar. Así de simple. La maternidad será deseada, o no será.  En este episodio hablaremos de los derechos reproductivos desde el punto de vista económico, político y social. ¿Qué implica para el sistema darle el poder sobre su cuerpo a la mujer? Escucha y únete no solo a la conversación, sino también a la marea verde que viene creciendo cada vez más en México. ¡Se va a caer! El Whatsapp de Entre tus Piernas es: 55 4801 8078.

Let’s keep inspiring each other and celebrate the thing we treasure the most: love. What’s one more year? That’s a question it took bride Jenna a minute to get comfortable with considering she and her fiance had already been together for eight years when they finally got engaged. But after thinking it over and knowing it was important to wait for a time when she and her fiance Zach could celebrate with their large families over an entire weekend at a “rustic nautical” destination wedding in Saint Michaels, Maryland, Jenna made the call last April to move their August 2020 wedding back an entire year so they could stick to their grand plans. A year later, they’re still not sure what their new wedding date will look like or if guests will even be allowed to dance. The only  thing they know for sure is that there will be all the crab and lobster a person could eat.  Thanks for listening!

I know that's so cheesy but this felt so different from any other relationship I've ever been in, and I was like, ‘What's happening right now? What is this feeling?’” (09:02) - On Zach proposing after eight years of dating - “It became kind of like a joke of like, ‘Zach, when are you going to propose?’” (11:38) - The proposal - “When I came home, I walked into a candlelit room with a PowerPoint of all the eight years of photos of us, and then at the very end, it said, ‘Will you marry me?’” (22:05) - On postponing their wedding early on - “I was like, ‘I am not losing all of these vendors and it's not getting better.’ And so I switched it and my sister thought it was so early on, ‘You're being ridiculous.’ But I was right.” (25:34) - Finding the perfect wedding dress - “I'm definitely not one of those ‘say yes to the dress’ girls.” (27:31) - The hardest part of planning a wedding during the pandemic - “The lack of being excited about it is stressful to me. I wish that I could be excited about it, and I guess as it gets closer I will be. But I am just so emotionally drained about it.” (28:05) - All of the things that are still unknown - “I can't envision the day without it being like, ‘Are people coming? Are there masks? Is it going to get canceled? Is it going to be small? Is there going to be dancing?’” (32:55) - Not feeling like she can talk about moving her wedding - “I also don't want to make anyone feel bad and thinking like my problems are so big when people are dying and losing jobs and all sorts of things. So I feel like this kind of weird balance.” (34:45) - What Jenna has learned over the past year - “Things don't have to go as perfect as your Pinterest board pictures them to go, and that's okay.”

Seamos sinceras, nos ENCANTA mentir. Mentiremos para tener la razón, para sentirnos con poder y para no afrontar las realidad.La mentira es la base del gaslight, una forma de manipulación de la que hemos hablado mucho en esta temporada y un tema que cerramos con broche de oro con un chal profundo y honesto entre familia. En este episodio de Entre Tus Piernas celebramos una mini reunión entre Nodalab y Caldero con Sofía Benedicto, Jorge González y Dito Torres para compartir sus reflexiones personales alrededor del gaslight, la mentira y cómo darle cabida a la verdad en nuestras vidas.

A black square on Instagram doesn't make you an anti-racist, but there is a path to follow. Welcome to From Woke to Work, the Anti-Racist Journey, a podcast created and hosted by Kamala Avila-Salmon, with the mission to make an impactful dent in people's understand of how to actually combat racism. Whether you're an ally ready to take action or a black person with a bunch of ally-related questions, this podcast will draw a clear path for you to follow towards true anti-racism.  We made it all the way through our journey from awareness to sympathy, through to empathy and reflection and all the way to allyship. And finally, anti-racism not to mention our detour stops to talk about the importance of relationships and anti-racist work and processing that attempted coup at the Capitol. In this episode, Kamala goes solo to provide 5 steps to take action and keep moving forward in the antiracist journey. Enjoy and however you start, keep going. Jump straight into: (00:46) - We've made it through this series but... is it enough? - “My hope for the future really rests in more and more non-black people, and especially white people, deciding that figuring out how to talk about race and how to actually see and address racism is worth it to them. “ (03:54) - Now what? 5 steps to take action and keep moving forward in the antiracist journey - “Wherever you are right now is okay, knowing where you are is what matters because if you know where you are, you can make a plan for how to get to where you want to be.” (10:02) - One last thing: Please discard “white neutrality” - “When we go to a white person, they are not giving us an objective point of view, they are giving us a white frame to point of view via the lens through which they inhabit and exist in the world.” Resources https://www.npr.org/podcasts/510312/codeswitch (Code Switch Podcast)  https://gimletmedia.com/shows/the-nod (The Nod Podcast) http://thisistheread.com/ (The Read Podcast) https://shadowandact.com/ (Shadow & Act) https://thegrio.com/ (The Grio) https://www.essence.com/ (Essence) https://www.ebony.com/ (Ebony) Thanks for tuning in!

A black square on Instagram doesn't make you an anti-racist, but there is a path to follow. Welcome to From Woke to Work, the Anti-Racist Journey, a podcast created and hosted by Kamala Avila-Salmon, with the mission to make an impactful dent in people's understand of how to actually combat racism. Whether you're an ally ready to take action or a black person with a bunch of ally-related questions, this podcast will draw a clear path for you to follow towards true anti-racism. This is the penultimate step of our anti-racist journey, and in this episode, Kamala will tackle everything around allyship and why it just isn't enough. When it comes to being an ally, white people look at it as if it was some sort of badge of honor, that they can even grant to themselves just by “not lynching” black people, basically. But the truth is, effective allyship comes with great discomfort, a lot of work, and big sacrifices. Being an ally means being of service, it means teaming up and proactively conspiring to dismantle the racist nature of our families, education and our overall system. Today, Kamala is joined by Black-British actress and director, public speaker, fierce dancer and athlete, and the Say Your Mind podcast host, Kelechi Okafor, to have a rich and unapologetic discussion around allyship, its limits and what it takes for non-black people to make changes in favor of a more diverse and inclusive society.  Jump straight into: (00:46) - On the cynical racism of Hollywood and the clear limits of useful allyship - “Feels limited because the ‘ally' will always retain their privilege.” (07:45) - The ridiculous hypocrisy of self-proclaimed allies and the nonsensical attempts to censor black people's voices - “It's no longer about feeling great. And if it is about feeling great, why must the greatness that you feel be at the expense of other people who are usually darker than you?”   (17:51) - Why allyship should never feel too comfortable - “It's full of clowns, as far as I'm concerned, because if we're talking about true allyship, you cannot do that without the willingness to lose something.” (21:54) - The role of diverse, deep relationship in the anti-racist journey, and why cis white males will difficultly become allies - “These things that I consider from good natured white men who try to help, they lack really an understanding of the complexities and the nuance around just how violent whiteness can be as a construct.” (30:35) - The huge difference between interrupting versus dismantling racism - “The system is easy because you can remove your emotions from it, go to the place that hurts, your household, because when you can do that, you're indestructible, and then we can take on this whole system together.” (38:12) - From being performative to becoming a better ally and how to effectively diversify the workplace - “If you're really wanting to go the distance, then this is how you do it, get your energy levels up, because it's not an easy walk.” Resources Follow Kelechi on https://www.instagram.com/kelechnekoff/ (Instagram) and https://twitter.com/kelechnekoff (Twitter)  https://podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast/say-your-mind/id1324118843 (Say Your Mind) https://www.instagram.com/tv/CIp7IyUpI8V/?utm_source=ig_embed&utm_campaign=loading (Kelechi's take) on the Tiffany Haddish Grammy scandal Thanks for tuning in!

Welcome back to FROM WOKE TO WORK: The Anti-Racist Journey. On this episode host, Kamala Avila-Salmon, discusses the next level on the journey, ALLYSHIP. Let's be clear, you are not an ally just because you think you are. You are also not an ally just because you would like to be. You are not an ally because you have Black friends. You are not an ally because you think the cops that killed Breonna Taylor and George Floyd and Jacob Blake and so many others should be locked up and stripped of their badges immediately. That is because ally is a verb. It is a set of consistent actions to interrupt and disrupt the status quo of systemic racism and anti-Blackness when you see it. It is DOING things- it is not feeling things or thinking things or reading things. It is ACTION, not words. To have this discussion about the importance of real, true allyship, Kamala is joined by a powerhouse panel of guests: actress, producer and director Terry Vaughn, Overbrook Entertainment Producer and Development Executive, Dougie Cash, and marketing professional Michael Hoffman specializing in the cross-section of entertainment and digital communities. Jump straight into: (00:44) - The definitions of true allyship - “Ally is someone who will speak up and go to bat for you when opportunities present themselves that fit you. An ally is really someone that puts their caring into action.” (09:57) - The intersection between marginalized communities - “Sitting in that place of privilege within my own marginalized community helps make me aware of the importance of making time and space to support those around me who don't have those experiences.” (16:41) - It was the year of 2020: The sudden (and quite upsetting) US' racial awakening- “It made me think about just us as a race and how much trauma we've all been carrying.” (27:04) - Tokenism, allyship and the needed empowerment of the black community - “Somebody that literally stood up and said: ‘I want her, I want to give her this opportunity, I've seen her work. I know how much time she's put into this craft of hers. I want her.'  Everyone that has ever done that for me is black.” (36:10) - How tangible is your allyship? - “Where are the spaces where what you're doing as an ally is hard? Where are the spaces where it actually is requiring you to give something up and to sacrifice? (44:20) - The Frequent Ally Questions: On performative allyship and non-black saviors - “Don't take some of the things that are being said personally as if you're being attacked, try to hear it for the context in which it's being spoken. Understand it's okay to disagree.” Resources Follow Terri on https://www.instagram.com/terrijvaughn (Instagram) and https://twitter.com/terrijvaughn (Twitter) Follow Dougie on https://www.instagram.com/dougiecash (Instagram)  Check out the https://www.facebook.com/WMNCpodcast (We Might Need Counseling) Podcast Follow Michael on https://www.instagram.com/mh0ffman (Instagram) Thanks for tuning in!

Welcome back to FROM WOKE TO WORK: The Anti-Racist Journey. On the last episode, we talked about the fourth stage of this journey- REFLECTION. If this is your first time joining us, STOP and go back to Episode 1. Now that we have made the case for reflection, Kamala does what she always does- lights a fire under your collective butts so you don't just chill here, thinking and thinking and thinking again, but actually start to move FORWARD and take some action. The key thing you need to remember when it comes to the limits of reflection is that thinking and planning and contemplating is not solving racism. At some point, you will need to DO SOMETHING. With the benefit of reflection, you will hopefully do the RIGHT something but you should not be seeking the “best ally” award just for being thoughtful. In this episode, Kamala is joined by Jon Alston, former NFL player and awarded filmmaker for his short film Augustus, and Vince, co-host of the While Black Podcast, to speak up towards racial injustice, highlight why reflection is not enough and how to keep moving forward. Jump straight into: (00:45) - The limits of reflection: why you must speak up - “It's so important for an ally to feel empowered enough to take this message of allyship and racial understanding back to the groups of people you and I can't reach.” (08:03) - The huge difference between “allies” and true accomplices - “I want you to be invested, otherwise, any movement that you colonize will only go as far as you want it to go.” (13:00) - The problem with still “doing research”: How much time do you need for your progress or to take action? - “Why are we being held accountable for progress in a world where we're not the ones lagging behind?” (22:53) - The importance of deep reflection and why it is so crucial to take action today - “No matter who you are, your experiences or your belief system, with the combination of true introspection and deep reflection the human in you has to kick in. There has to be an awakening that forces you to look at the world through a different set of lenses.” (30:35) - From performance to positive progress through reflection - “Reflection, and action don't need to be adversaries, actually, they should really be close friends.” (37:23) - How to become a more active and effective accomplice - “Don't use racial bias for your own advantage.” Resources Follow John on https://www.instagram.com/the.alston (Instagram) and https://twitter.com/jonstonesays (Twitter) Keep an eye on Augustus through https://www.instagram.com/augustus_film (Instagram) https://www.augustus.film/ (Augustus) Follow Vince on https://www.instagram.com/while_black (Instagram) http://www.whileblackpodcast.com/ (The While Black Podcast ) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aMXzLhbWtmk (2Pac 1994 Interview) https://www.americanskinfilm.com/ (American Skin) Thanks for tuning in!

Empathy is what inspired host, Kamala Avila-Salmon to put The Anti-Racist together; more specifically, it was the LIMITS of empathy that inspired her. While empathy is very important, and for many it feels good, it will not by itself free us from established patterns of shock, outrage, protest, and then complacency. On this episode, Kamala connects with her dear and brilliant friend, Dr. Chanda Prescod-Weinstein to address why empathy is not enough. Dr. Chanda Prescod-Weinstein is an assistant professor of physics and astronomy and core faculty in women's and gender studies at the University of New Hampshire. A particle cosmologist by training, she is a dark matter theorist and also conducts research in Black feminist science, technology, and society studies. She is also one of under 100 Black American women to earn a PhD from a department of physics. She is an outspoken and inspiring voice on issues of race, gender, queer identity, and decolonizing science, and basically how Kamala decides if I'm on the right side of most important social justice topics of the day. Jump straight into: (00:45) - How sympathy is not really empathy, and the racist past and present inside the scientific community - “We can't afford to rest on our laurels and assume that change will just magically flow from this fount of feelings.” (08:51) - Feelings are not actions: How NOT to reach out to your black friends - “It's actually anti-work. You're basically asking them to perform emotional labor to be there with you as you process your feelings.” (23:02) - Whiteness and racism: On conversations around white skin privilege - “A lot of people don't want to talk about whiteness, but it's still operating between two people, even if you think you're on the same page.” (27:23) - How empathy can turn into white empiricism - “What a strange thought! A movement for black people without black people. What is that?!” (32:09) - The Frequent Ally Question: How to do the work without either burdening or excluding black people? - “ You're not obligated to read everything, but you're obligated to do something.” Resources http://www.cprescodweinstein.com/ (Chanda Prescod-Weinstein) Preorder https://www.hachettebookgroup.com/titles/chanda-prescod-weinstein/the-disordered-cosmos/9781541724709/?lens=bold-type-books (The Disordered Cosmos) by Chanda Prescod-Wenstein Thanks for tuning in!

In this week's episode Kamala zeros in on empathy because it is a critical stop on the journey to ensuring any plans we make to address racism going forward are grounded on an understanding of our shared humanity. Anti-Black racism is not a Black people problem, it is a White supremacy problem. Until non-Black, and especially White people, see the problem as theirs to solve, we can't make progress. Where sympathy is to share in the sorrow of another, empathy is to feel the sorrow of another as if it were your own while being conscious of the fact that this is a thought experiment. You still know you have your own shoes that you walk in but you mentally or emotionally, envision what it would be like to walk in the shoes of another. It brings us closer to those who may be very different from us.  For this discussion, Kamala is joined by Fay Johnson, an ethical behavior change and human-centered design expert, and Chia-Lin Simmons, a successful tech serial entrepreneur. Fay founded Deliberate Discourse in 2015 in response to the ongoing violence against black people in America. Deliberate is an intentional, guided experience that allows people, and especially non-Black people, to engage in deep conversations about racism in America. Chia-Lin is the CEO / Co-Founder of LookyLoo and Co-Founder of Orange Bridge Ventures; most relevant to our discussion today is her personal journey as an outspoken advocate and ally for the Black community, in her professional and personal life. Jump straight into: (00:45) - A brief context around empathy and racism in the United States - “Anti-black racism is not a black people problem, it is a white supremacy problem.” (04:56) - How everyone has the right (and obligation) to stand up against racial justice - “I remember feeling in my body that very visceral response that I needed to do something. A dear friend of mine, Stephanie, said: ‘You will for sure screw it up, but you should do it anyway because the work needs to be done. Just get going and stop questioning herself about being perfect.'” (16:40) - The importance of empathy and why it is so crucial in the Anti-Racist Journey - “Having that kind of empathy and imagining being in those shoes has really allowed people to help do the bridge into having those conversations in the United States.” (26:34) - How conscious conversations can fight polarization and what racism in the business ecosystem looks like - “People may not be aware of the number of walls and privileges that essentially are structured for white people and against people of color.” (37:10) - How power and privilege prevent people from accessing empathy - “Maybe it's time for some of us to take a step back and put other people forward, because we need to hear their voices.” (44:41) - How to cultivate empathy through “bridging” - “If we are really committed to being good leaders, a good skill to learn would be paying attention to the signals that you're getting from people when they do raise the topic.” Resources https://www.deliberatediscourse.com/ (Deliberate Discourse) https://lookyloo.ai/ (LookyLoo) Connect with https://www.linkedin.com/in/faymjohnson/ (Fay) Connect with https://twitter.com/chialinsimmon (Chia-Lin) Thanks for tuning in!

On this week's episode, Kamala invited two mentors of hers, Jason White and Amani Duncan, to join her today to talk about the limits of sympathy and why aspiring allies and anti-racists need to go much further than that to actually drive change. As marketing execs, both Jason and Amani know the power of stories to spark awareness and elicit emotion. The tragic and unjust murders of Black people from Trayvon Martin to Tamir Rice to Breonna Taylor to Sandra Bland and of course, George Floyd, have done a lot to build awareness of racial injustice and even elicit sympathy from non-Black people around the world. However, there is a danger that these feelings of sympathy can end up amounting to nothing unless actual action is taken as a result of these feelings. Jump straight into: (01:12) - Is sympathy enough? - “Feelings are not meant to be a substitute for taking action, they are meant to fuel you for taking the right action.” (04:31) - 2020's racism awareness and “checking on your black friends calls” - “The perception that white people have of me is that I'm not affected that I'm not like them, so I don't need to be checked up on.” (15:12) - How to support your friends and not bring them more burden! - “I just rather not get a phone call, I rather you educate yourself, become a part of the conversations, take action”. (24:10) - What are “white tears” and why the term is so uncomfortable for all - “What these tears create is, is a false centre of where the resources need to go”. (34:00) - From sympathy to solidarity - “I think it starts with just what we're doing right now is just like, we have to call out that critical moment ”. (40:36) - How speaking up proves that you care! - “Teach people the way you want to be treated. So we're not gonna allow people to get a pass on this, but we also have to figure out how to bring people into the conversation”. (53:53) - The FAQ (Frequent Ally Question): What should an ally do when they have a friend who is in the opposite pole of the conversation? - “ You might lose some friends here and there, they might go away for a while and they might come back because they want to do better and be better”.

In this episode of From Woke to Work, Kamala talks about sympathy and why it matters that on your way to actually taking action to reject a racist world order, you actually spend some time feeling bad. If the state-sanctioned death of your fellow citizens does not deeply disturb you, there is likely something else going on. Listen as she unpacks sympathy with Crystal Marie, a Marketer and writer who has worked with major brands and who loves writing about everyone's favorite uncomfortable topics: faith, politics, race, relationships, and current events. Jump straight into: (03:11) - Why having sympathy can change someone's life - “It's one of those things that you want to believe that is just human nature”. (09:58) - How do Crystal Marie processes the grief around anti-blackness - “I think someone said something about, black lives matter being so divisive. And I said, is it a bad divide though?”. (15:23) - About Tamir Rice's murder - “My immediate thought was maybe I heard the story wrong. Maybe I'm missing some key information. Maybe the story is being painted in an exaggerated, like yellow journalism type way”. (23:43) - On Social Media and how unsympathetic people can be - “How can you, as an ally leveraging sympathy, think about how you can create space for a black person in your life to take a mental break?”. (29:14) - Push others on reflecting about white supremacy - “It's the frame of, how would you feel if this thing happened to your child? Or to someone that you know, someone in your life.” (33:12) - If you approach your friends for help, do it without creating emotional weight - “How dare you to hold this banner of care? When, when someone that, you know, came to you and had a very polite conversation with you about it, and it didn't matter”. (40:35) - FAQ (Frequently Ally Questions): Why is it wrong to say “All Lives Matter”? - “First off, there's no such thing as a blue life because you can take a uniform off. My husband, my son, myself... I can't take off my Brown skin” Thanks for tuning in! Don't forget to follow https://www.instagram.com/therealkas1 (Kamala) on Instagram to learn more.

It only took the video recording of the murder of a(nother) Black man to go viral for the entire world to realize the United States of America has a systemic racial issue. We wish we were joking. There is a… silver lining here though, America is now proudly “woke”, right? The thing is, to the affected communities, this awakening is a bit of a slap in the face, but hey, no hard feelings, if you're willing to do the work to earn the title “ally” or “anti-racist”. In today's episode of From Woke to Work, Kamala is joined by Sherice Torres and Barbara Furlow-Smiles, two empowered leaders who live, eat and breathe being Diversity & Inclusion, to chat all about awareness and why it is just the tip of the iceberg in the anti-racist journey. With awareness, comes education. Just a little warning, it ain't pretty. Future allies have to master the art of getting comfortable with being uncomfortable, and build their resilience for real talk on race if they are truly committed to changing the world. Are you newly aware? Good! Now it is time for the real work!  Jump straight into: (0:45) - Your collective awareness is not enough, so please listen closely -  “You should hold space for what you are feeling, but you need to focus on your Black colleagues, because while you are feeling it, they have been living it.” (13:52) - If you're doing it for praise and recognition, you better just take a seat - “Allyship, just like sponsorship has to be earned. It's that bridge from awareness to action, what makes the difference in who truly is an ally or not.” (17:10)  - The role of educational learning as an entryway to authentic understanding - “At the end of the day, what we're trying to get is empathy. It's like ‘walk in my shoes!'.” (21:14) - On Search for Racial Equity - “The first step in anyone's entire racism journey is education. You have to educate yourself, it's not going to your black friend or your black colleague and asking them to share their experience.” (28:11) - More real talk, less sugar coating - “A lot of people don't want to hear the truth of their people, but we have to get comfortable with being uncomfortable.” Resources Follow Sherice on https://www.instagram.com/equalpartsjoy (Instagram) and https://twitter.com/EqualPartsJoy (Twitter) Follow Barbara on https://www.instagram.com/barbsmilez/ (Instagram) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p-bSYrj3AaE&list=PLGGpadyh0wS7Pfvyqwip2_1zzjj9l-Ai- (The Search for Racial Equity ) https://www.nytimes.com/interactive/2019/08/14/magazine/1619-america-slavery.html (The 1619 Project)  Thanks for tuning in!

This year will be hard to forget, not only have we witnessed a pandemic unfold in front of our eyes, but also social movements that arise in the middle of chaos. The Black Lives Matter movement is especially highlighted, as unfortunate events triggered the rage of the already exhausted black community, who got the support of recently “woke” non-black allies. Awareness is just the first step of the anti-racism journey. On today's episode, Kamala is joined by an inspiring leader, speaker and black woman, Jovian Zayne, to chat about the role of awareness around racism in the American society. Listen to the perspectives of these two women in this new episode, as they discuss what they are expecting from true allies to fight alongside the black community for the creation of a more just reality. Jump straight into: (0:46) - The perfect year for a pandemic and the sudden (yet awfully late) national realization of racial injustice - “White people finally looked up and realized all at once: Damn... This country is racist!” (10:32) - Awareness opens your eyes, now, open your mind to different narratives - “There is a persistent issue of police violence, specifically against communities of color and even more specifically against black people.” (22:03) - Accept uncomfortable truths to start important conversations - “There are ways to deepen your awareness that don't require fully unloading every question that you have about race on the next black person that you see.” (25:15) - How Black Lives Matter has empowered and raised the voices of an entire community - “The idea that it makes some people so incensed to hear those three words together is because it actually does call out all of American history.” (37:30) - The problem with forced diversity and black representation - “We need the conversation that happens after the change and the commitment that comes after it. That's a pretty important step in the process, but not the whole process.” (42:36 ) - Dealing with non-believers of a very evident problem - “It's such a beautiful time to try to be an anti-racist. Is popular, it is on trend, is accessible and available.” Resources https://www.jovianzayne.com/onpurpose-movement (OnPurpose Movement) https://www.amazon.com/How-Be-Antiracist-Ibram-Kendi/dp/0525509283/ref=sr_1_1?crid=353FK10AB52K1&dchild=1&keywords=how+to+be+an+antiracist&qid=1605746346&sprefix=how+to+be+an+%2Caps%2C220&sr=8-1 (How to Be an Antiracist) by Ibram Kendi https://www.instagram.com/sharethemicnow (Share the Mic Now) https://www.amazon.com/The-Power-of-Vulnerability-audiobook/dp/B00D1Z9RFU/ref=sr_1_8?dchild=1&keywords=bren%C3%A9+brown&qid=1605746534&sr=8-8 (The Power of Vulnerability )by Brené Brown https://brenebrown.com/podcast/brene-with-austin-channing-brown-on-im-still-here-black-dignity-in-a-world-made-for-whiteness/ (Brené with Austin Channing Brown on I'm Still Here: Black Dignity in a World Made for Whiteness) https://www.instagram.com/p/CClvjO7HzXY/ (Reese Whiterspoon's conversation with Austin Channing Brown) https://www.amazon.com/We-Will-Not-Cancel-Transformative-ebook/dp/B08GG8WD96/ref=sr_1_1?crid=R7G6ODH5031C&dchild=1&keywords=we+will+not+cancel+us&qid=1605747001&s=digital-text&sprefix=we+will+not+can%2Cdigital-text%2C202&sr=1-1 (We Will Not Cancel Us) by Adrienne Maree Brown Thanks for tuning in!

A black square on Instagram doesn't make you an anti-racist, but there is a path to follow. Welcome to From Woke to Work, the Anti-Racist Journey, a podcast created and hosted by Kamala Avila-Salmon, with the mission to make an impactful dent in people's understand of how to actually combat racism. Whether you're an ally ready to take action or a black person with a bunch of ally-related questions, this podcast will draw a clear path for you to follow towards true anti-racism. We can all share a post and use a popular hashtag, but when it comes to taking action, what else are you doing? In the first episode of From Woke to Work, you'll get to better know your host, Kamala, as she shares her experiences around racism and “woke” folks, what motivated her to start this podcast, and how she assembled her 6 step journey to true anti-racism with marketing principles. From awareness to action, you'll learn about the steps you'll be taking in order to become a true ally, and stop being your average performer. Listen now and reflect on the steps you may have missed to actually make an impact in a society where likes are overvalued, yet action is rarely taken.   Jump straight into: (00:46) - Being “woke” is just as good as staring and doing nothing - “Did black death just run on a different news network that only black people got? I don't think so.” (04:23) - The 6 Step Anti-Racist Journey - “Knowledge is not action, only action is action, so let's get after it.” (09:51) - This journey is not about perfection, and it will never stop - “However exhausted you are by talking about racism, just think about how exhausted we are living with it.” Thanks for tuning in!

This is From Woke to Work: The Anti-Racist Journey. Hosted by https://www.instagram.com/therealkas1/ (Kamala Avila-Salmon), she talks about what it means to go from a self-proclaimed ally to an effective anti-racist. Whether you're an ally that's ready to take action or a Black person looking for a place to direct all those ally questions, this is the podcast you'll want to keep close at hand. There's something missing about the way that we're talking about allyship. Kamala felt it more acutely than ever in the wake of the murders of Breonna Taylor and George Floyd. In this moment, the biggest global awakening on racism and racial injustice in a generation, more and more white and non-black people started showing up declaring themselves “Anti-Racist”. What were they doing? What were they actually doing besides messages of concern to their black friends and turning your profile pictures Black? What actions were they taking? Kamala started to get mad, but then she got curious. Did these newly “woke” allies know they needed to do things to bring about racial justice and equity? Did they know what to do? She put pen to paper and sketched out an anti-racism journey modeled after the traditional marketing funnel of how we get consumers from unaware to adopters of our product.  Over the series of this podcast, Kamala will talk about that journey; how you can go from being woke (i.e. aware of racial inequity and injustice) to actually doing the work and eradicating it.
