As fire departments increasingly focus on fire prevention and community risk reduction (CRR), several new challenges have emerged. In some cases, firefighters may resist or be apathetic to these tasks. In other cases, less obvious hurdles like hidden biases can cause departments to make missteps. Today on the podcast, a safety and wellness captain from Georgia joins us to discuss the small and big ways these factors can impact prevention work, and how departments can work to overcome them (2:45). Then, on a new Code Corner, NFPA engineer Shawn Mahoney talks about the requirements for integrated system testing in the Life Safety Code· (41:44).

On today's episode #325 we continue with our 18-Week Self-Leadership Series based on Grant Bosnick's “Tailored Approaches to Self-Leadership: A Bite Size Approach Using Psychology and Neuroscience” that we first dove into with our interview on EP #321.[i] During this interview, I told Grant that his book contained a thorough and deep overview of the Neuroscience of Self-Leadership, and I felt like each of the 18 chapters could be covered in 18 weeks, for all of us to gain a better understanding of the application of the science he picked out for each chapter. So I decided to cover EACH chapter here, with a map towards our progress over the next 18 weeks, and to set our season theme to the Neuroscience of Self-Leadership that will be our focus until June of this year. Today we will be looking at Chapter 4 of this book on “The Neuroscience of Mindfulness.” This is a topic that scored on the MEDIUM side of urgency for me, (ORANGE) on the Leadership Self-Assessment.[ii] I hope that you have taken your self-assessment[iii], so you can follow along with your most urgent to least urgent areas of importance with your year. This area surprised me a bit, because I think Mindfulness is a huge part of my day. It's something that I spend time doing every morning, or else it's noticeable to me that I've missed it. Then I looked back over all the episodes we covered starting with some of our early episodes when I was just learning the ropes with interviewing guests. We started covering mindfulness on EP #25[iv] with Mick Neustadt, a mindfulness expert, to EP #28[v] with Dr. Dan Siegel, the well-known clinical professor at the UCLA School of Medicine, on his concept of Mindsight that he said was the basis for social and emotional intelligence. Then on EP #60[vi], we covered Dr. Siegel's' Wheel of Awareness Meditation, and the insights I gained from practicing the 3 segments he has created over a two-month period, and then into Dr. Dawson Church's Bliss Brain Meditations[vii] that still sits as our MOST watched YouTube interview[viii] from December 2020 on The Science Behind Using a Meditation Practice. It feels like yesterday, but it was 2 years ago that we met with psychologist Darshan Pindoria for EP 266 on “Bringing Mindfulness and Meditation to Our Daily Lives.” So what does Grant Bosnick say about mindfulness in his book “Tailored Approaches to Self-Leadership?” He opens up chapter four by talking about the benefits of mindfulness to help us to gain more “executive control” over our daily distractions. I like how he asks “What is Mindfulness?” and lists the many definitions on the topic that talk about this practice as a “mental state achieved by concentrating in the present moment” to “creating a feeling of calm” to “a moment-to-moment awareness of one's experience without judgement.” Then he did not miss the father of mindfulness, who we've quoted often on this podcast, especially after I took his Masterclass, Jon Kabat-Zinn who gently reminds us that mindfulness is “an awareness that arises from paying attention, on purpose, in the present moment and non-judgmentally.” Bosnick shares that “it seems to be a mental state AND the practice of reaching that state” and he likens it to the Jedi's Mind from the movie series Star Wars. He says “It's like the force.” Now I think I saw Star Wars when I was a kid, and knew about “the force” but had to look up the meaning as it's been a few years. Bosnick reminds us that in the original Star Wars, Obi-Wan Kenobi told Luke Skywalker “Well, the force is what gives a Jedi his power. It is an energy field created by all living things. It surrounds us and penetrates us: it binds the galaxy together.” (Ch 4, Bosnick). Now for someone who hasn't watched Star Wars since childhood, this sounds a lot to me like content we cover on this podcast, specifically our Science of Getting Rich Series[ix] where we talk about the fact that “there is a thinking stuff from which all things are made, and which, in its original state, permeates, penetrates and fills the interspaces of the universe.” (Wallace D. Wattles, SGR, The Syllabus). Or, our interview with Dr. Konstantin Korotkov, from EP 307[x] where we learned about the energy field that surrounds our body. Bosnick reminds us that the movie warned us to “Remember, a Jedi's strength flows from the Force. But beware: Anger, fear, aggression—the Dark Side, are there” so we learn to keep our emotions in check, by practicing mindfulness. PUTTING MINDFULNESS INTO PRACTICE: BUILDING OUR MENTAL RESILIENCE OVER TIME Bosnick tells us that “in order for us to be mindful, to focus and keep focus, we need to have “executive control” over our attention.” (Ch 4, Bosnick) and I'll add that we will all be at different levels of being able to “block out” our distractions. I remember the first time I laid down, and tried to listen to a guided meditation in the early days of learning this practice, and is all I could hear was my kids running around, when they were little. There was no chance I was going to be able to focus back then, but I just kept trying. I can say that one day, I noticed, that I could be sitting somewhere busy, like an airport, and am now able to block all outside distractions in order to go within. Wearing certain headphones has definitely helped with this. But this didn't come easily to me. I hear many people say “yeah, I gave up trying to meditate, it just doesn't work for me.” Other than telling you to sit there and listen to whatever meditation program you connect with, and keep trying, I don't have a strategy for HOW to build your mental muscles either, or how to build the resilience that comes over time, or how to take your meditation practice from the comfort of your home, where you begin, to your busy work day, when you need it the most. But Grant Bosnick does and he introduces us to New York Times Best Selling Author, Shirzad Chamine's strategy[xi] that guarantees we will quiet our mind over time. Bringing in the science to Mindfulness, DID YOU KNOW there is a concept called PQ Reps, coined by Positive Intelligence Founder, Shirzad Chamine[xii] that builds our mental muscles over time? PQ Reps stand for “positive intelligence quotient repetitions” (Ch 4, Bosnick) “and they are small, laser-focused exercises that consciously and purposely deploy our attention to one specific sensation.” These exercises are a way to train your brain in the same way that you would if you were meditating, giving you all of the benefits we are talking about with this practice. Shirzad Chamine discovered PQ Reps when he was looking for a way to build mental resilience for people who struggled to begin a mediation practice. Through fMRI scans, he could see that by activating a certain part of the brain, the PQ Area, in 10 second intervals, by taking your index finger and rubbing it on your thumb, while focusing on the sensation of this feeling, they could see that this PQ area in the brain was slightly activated, while the survival part of the brain was slightly quieter.[xiii] HOW DO WE PRACTICE PQ REPS? By rubbing your finger and your thumb together, involving your any of your 5 senses for 10 seconds. I suggest involve the sensation of touch, and notice what it feels like to touch the top of one finger on the ridges of the other. By doing this, you are shifting your attention to your body and focusing on the sensation. It's a lot like Dan Siegel's Wheel of Awareness practice that has you focused on one body part at a time (from head to toe) and feeling the sensation of your thoughts as it goes from one body part to the next. Who knew I was practicing PQ Reps while doing Dan Siegel's Wheel of Awareness Meditation and improving my mental fitness? It really does help to understand the science behind developing a mindfulness practice, so you can continue to strengthen yours. Shrizad Chamine recommends that if we want to use PQ Reps to build up this part of our brain, that we should do this practice for 12 minutes/day or 136 reps/day. To put this into perspective, Dan Siegel's Full Wheel of Awareness practice[xiv], is 37 minutes in length. Visiting his website that I've linked in the show notes, you can see this one, as well as a shorter one, and a NEW one on the Plane of Possibility. REVIEW AND CONCLUSION To review and conclude this week's episode #325 on “The Neuroscience of Mindfulness” we asked the question: DID YOU KNOW there is a concept called PQ Reps, coined by Positive Intelligence Founder, Shirzad Chamine[xv] who used fMRI scanners to discover that by doing these PQ Reps we can actually build our mental muscles by activating this PQ Region in the Brain? For those who have a mindfulness practice in place, putting PQ Reps into practice helps to reaffirm the benefits that comes along with building your mental muscles, and for those who have found it difficult to begin a mindfulness practice, PQ Reps is a proven way to bridge the gap for you to begin. HOW DO WE PRACTICE PQ REPS? By rubbing our finger and thumb together, and involving any of our 5 senses for 10 seconds. I suggest that we feel the touch of our fingers on each other. By doing this, we are shifting our attention to our body and focusing on the sensation. It is this activity, that build us the PQ Area of our brain, while the survival part goes quieter. If you next listen to Dan Siegel's Wheel of Awareness Meditation you will see how Dr. Siegel's Mindfulness Practice is essentially teaching you to do PQ Reps involving every part of your body and feeling the sensations from your head to toe. Start small, practicing PQ Reps one day at a time, and eventually you will learn to focus your attention for longer periods of time, building your mental muscles and resilience in the process. With each lesson we cover in this review of Grant Bosnick's Tailored Approaches to Self-Leadership, I'm hoping to show us how we can gain the momentum needed to activate Lewin's Field Theory, (remember from Chapter 2 on goals, EP 323[xvi] that place where we gain momentum and suddenly, life becomes easier. The resistances fades away, and our goals or whatever it is we are working on, are not far off in the distance, but they are within our reach. Then I'm hoping that we have a clear understanding of Chapter 3, EP 324[xvii] on The Neuroscience of Inspiration where we became clear with WHO or WHAT inspires us. This is when we know we can use our MINDS and understanding of our BRAIN, to turn MIND into MATTER, and create our own futures by design, rather than let them happen by default. I suggest using the MAP that Bosnick created to check off when you think you have integrated each skills into your daily life. In Chapter 2 on Goals, do you see how to gain the momentum needed for your success this year? In Chapter 3 on Inspiration, do you know WHO or WHAT inspires you, and are you using this knowledge for motivation? And now in Chapter 4 on Mindfulness, where are YOU in your mindfulness practice? Does this understanding of PQ Reps help you to build up the PQ area of your brain? Can you do a few reps in the day, until you build up to 12 minutes a day like recommended for this part of the brain to see the changes we all seek? I hope you have found this episode on Mindfulness helpful for sharpening your mindfulness practice, if you have one, or looking for alternative ways to build one, if you have found the process to be difficult. I can't forget that I wondered how I could improve my own meditation practice early last year, so we dove deep into The Silva Method, covered in 4 PARTS, that we just reviewed on EP #322[xviii] as our most downloaded series in 2023. The point of this episode today is that we learn to improve Mindfulness in our day to day life, not just for more “executive control” but to think beyond this. Jose Silva reminds us that “Once we learn to use our minds to train it, it will do some astounding things for us, as you will soon see.” Remember that some of the leading experts in the world have used Mindfulness (from The Silva Method) for outstanding results. ✔ A marketing company used it to create 18 new products. ✔ 14 Chicago White Socks players used it to boost their scores. ✔ Celebrities have used it and credit Jose Silva for improving their focus and creativity. ✔ Colleges and universities have used it to help students study less, but learn more. If you are not using your mind to its fullest potential, don't worry, awareness is the first step. Start small today, and you'll be miles ahead in 2024, than you've ever been! I'll end with a quote to highlight the self-awareness we will build once we've implemented this lesson into our daily life, since our goal with this 18-week series is to help each of us to become more self-aware. “To know yourself, you must sacrifice the illusion that you already do.” — Vironika Tugaleva And I'll see you next week for an interview, and the week after that with Chapter 5 on Flow.

Doug answers viewer letters with Fr. Spitzer, and discusses aspects of his new book, Christ vs. Satan in Our Daily Lives, including the three stages of mystical life - the purgative, the illuminative and the unitive.
Fr. Donncha Ó hAodha concludes our Lenten podcast series reflecting on how we can become vessels of God’s love and instruments of God’s grace through our participation in the Way of the Cross and sharing in Christ’s passion and death. Despite our sinful nature, Christ continues to call each of us to be witnesses of his love and mercy. Fr. Donncha explains that through our participation in the sacraments and through sanctifying our daily work, we can respond freely to the love of Christ and be a channel of grace to those we encounter in the midst everyday life. As St. Josemaria explains: “Do everything for love. Thus there will be no little things: everything will be big. Perseverance in little things for love is heroism. A little act, done for love, is worth so much! (The Way, no. 813-814.) ––––– Transcript: https://stjosemaria.org/wp-content/uploads/2021/03/The-Way-of-the-Cross-in-Our-Daily-Lives.pdf ––––– THANK YOU FOR LISTENING!

In today's episode, we cover happiness and positive psychology with Dr. Tal Ben-Shahar. Tal Ben-Shahar taught two of the largest classes in Harvard University's history, Positive Psychology and The Psychology of Leadership, and now consults and lectures around the world to executives in multinational corporations, the general public, and at-risk populations. Finding happiness in the chaos of life has been a struggle for many in recent years, but what can be done about it, what role do technology and social media play, and how do we help our children navigate the increasing complexity of this world? What to Listen For Introduction Dr. Tal Ben-Shahar and Happiness - 1:20 What two groups of people don't experience painful emotions and why would you not want to be in either group? What are the biggest myths surrounding happiness and positive psychology? What can 2020 teach us about happiness? What are the fundamentals of happiness and what makes them fundamental? When is distraction a positive thing to have in our lives and when should we avoid it? Building Healthy Habits Around Media Consumption - 10:50 What healthy habits can you develop around media consumption so you don't drive your mental health into the ground? What are sanity islands and how can you use them to limit screen time and promote moderation? What are the benefits of social media use? What is the biggest contributor to depression and suicide in teenagers and what can we do about it? What are the 3 strategies you can use as a parent to promote healthy mental and emotional growth for your kids in the world of smartphones and social media? The Impact of Tech/Media Consumption on Our Daily Lives - 27:00 Why is it important to be comfortable with boredom and why do we need boredom to come up with our best ideas? How does our addiction to stimulation impact our relationships and what can we do to prevent our relationships from collapsing as a result? How do we overcome the paradox of choice so we can simply move forward with a choice rather than getting stuck trying to choose something? When is it detrimental to our happiness and well-being to have unrealistic expectations and how can you determine when it is ok to have high expectations? What is the most powerful gift we can give to people we care about who are suffering? What is toxic positivity and is it a legitimate concern in society? With mental health issues on the rise in modern society, it seems like happiness is taking a back seat to productivity and profit. Younger generations are experiencing spikes in depression and suicide as a direct result of mass adoption of smartphones and social media. The news is constantly bombarding us with fear and tragic events around the world. What can we do? For one, we can start by limiting our exposure to all the screens in our daily lives. The devices we own and the software on them are all engineered to keep us using them as long as possible. If you want to feel happier, replace screen time with face time, and not the kind of face time that requires a device. Real in-person face time. The same goes for your kids. Children aren't going to learn social skills by sitting in front of a screen all day.

SUMMARY Howard Ross, a lifelong social justice advocate, has authored the Washington Post bestseller, Everyday Bias: Identifying and Navigating Unconscious Judgments in Our Daily Lives. Smashing long-time myths we hold dear, Ross addresses the many faces of unconscious bias. His book offers a plethora of data and anecdotes illustrating the urgency to develop a greater awareness of our own irrational beliefs and leanings. In short, Ross lays out a strong case for watching ourselves more carefully to notice and at least neutralize our biases. SOME KEY TERMS Unconscious Bias - comes from social stereotypes, attitudes, opinions, and stigma we form about certain groups of people outside of our own conscious awareness; can be fed by snippets of information that we might get from biased media or social media or other sources, which are often taken out of context Theory of Mind - the ability to attribute beliefs, intentions, wants, and knowledge to others, and to understand when others have beliefs that are the same or different from our own Superego - the civilizing facet of the personality structure, controlling the id through rules that we have picked up during our life Selective Attention - a mental process through which we see some things but not others, depending upon our point of focus Diagnosis Bias - the propensity to label people, ideas, or things based on our initial opinions Pattern Recognition – the tendency to sort and identify information based on prior experience or habit (includes stereotyping) Confirmation Bias - a tendency for people to gather information or respond to a circumstance in a way that confirms their already established beliefs or ideas Priming - the implicit tendency to respond to something based on expectations created by a previous experience or association Anchoring Bias (AKA focalism) - the common tendency to rely too heavily or “anchor” on one trait or piece of information when making decisions Mirror Neurons – cause us to feel a deep connection to the experiences of others; sometimes called “the basis of civilization” QUOTES FROM ROSS “Unconscious influences dominate our everyday life. What we react to, are influenced by, see or don’t see, are all determined by reactions that happen deep within our psyche. Reactions which are largely unknown to us.” “We are constantly making decisions that are influenced by unconscious biases. In fact, even when our biases seem conscious, they may be influenced by a pattern of unconscious assumptions that we have absorbed throughout our lives.” “Whether you think they should or not, qualifications rarely have anything to do with Presidential elections. In fact, since 1950 arguably the least qualified candidates won more often than they lost! Whether we should or not, we vote for president based on how the person makes us feel.” “We are trained to think we can talk people out of their points of view if we give them the right ‘evidence.’ But…political biases actually distort our ability to reason logically. In the battle between emotion and rationality, emotion usually wins!” “Most people I know like to think of themselves as ‘good people.’ We like to think that we treat everybody around us fairly, at least most of the time, and we shudder to think that we might be biased in our nature. And yet it is apparent that to be biased is almost as normal as breathing, and that our hidden fears and insecurities often get expressed in the various ways we react and respond to each other.” “We like to think we are rational, and that our emotions are secondary. This is not unusual in Western cultures. We have a long history of valuing the rational over the emotional.” “We tend to have much greater empathy for people who are similar to us, particularly racially.” RECOMMENDATIONS BUY Our Search for Belonging: How Our Need to Connect Is Tearing Us Apart BUY Factfulness: Ten Reasons We're Wrong About the World--and Why Things Are Better Than You Think Begin to identify your own biases, take the free, computer-based Implicit Association Test (IAT).

In this conversation on race I’m joined by Diversity pioneers and original thought leaders Lee Mun Wah and Howard Ross to talk about the current state of diversity, racism and white supremacy in the US today Howard is known for his cutting edge work on implicit bias and Mun Wah made the ground breaking film on race, Color of Fear. Key Topics: Origins and current state of the Trump executive order banning diversity and inclusion training in the government and companies that do business with the government.

Why diversity, equity, inclusion and conversations on race are more important now than ever in the current culture of the US and across the globe. How Black people and others protesting in the name of social justice are being shot, threatened and attacked. Overcoming resistance and fear of diversity, conversations on race and social justice. Whose lives matter? Do white lives matter more than Black lives? Do heterosexual lives matter more than LGBTQ lives The fact that the media doesn’t mention the large numbers of Native American women who have disappeared, the lack of funds to help Native American communities and the high Covid death rate in that community. How issues of racism against LatinX, Asian and other people of color are often neglected, trivialized and ignored. Intercultural Health care disparities that result in higher death rates for Black women during childbirth than white women.

When the “New North America” was established, it was clear that black people were not human or equal to white people, even after the civil rights movement. Consequently the architects of society had a non-inclusive cultural standard to adhere to when developing our society. This is where bias comes in. When power and bais marry, they produce systemic racism. All of the systems of our society were built by white men. Our criminal justice system, employment system, housing system, health care system, political system, education system, etc... Even well intentioned folks have built systems that exclude the interest of all that weren't granted a seat at the table. The side effect being all of the infamous ISMs and phobias. Institutional racism, also known as systemic racism, is a form of racism that is embedded as normal practice within society or an organization. It can lead to such issues as discrimination in criminal justice, employment, housing, health care, political power, and education, among other issues. We are currently experiencing another moment, where the issues of race and injustices are visible enough for everyone to pay attention. The key being everyone. People of color experience it every day. While not all are a visible and clear as the murder of George Floyd, they show up in a way that steals peace and joy from not only those who experience racial acts directly but all of us. Our guest today is a wonderful and accomplished human being and he is also a gentleman.

Mindfulness adalah sebuah teknik untuk memusatkan perhatian dan pikiran terhadap masa sekarang. Tahukah kamu kalau menerapkan Mindfulness tidak harus selalu berbentuk meditasi duduk seperti yang umumnya dibayangkan ? Meditasi dapar dilakukan kapanpun dalam selama tidak membahayakan jiwa (contohnya saat menyetir mobil atau motor). Niat di awal meditasi adalah: “Niat saya adalah untuk melatih perhatian saya, jadi saya akan berusaha untuk menggunakan perhatian untuk sadar pada sensasi di tubuh saya saat saya mendengarnya aba-abanya, dan ketika saya memperhatikan pikiran saya mengembara, saya akan mengembalikan perhatian saya ke sensasi di tubuh saya.” Manfaat yang Anda bisa rasakan dari latihan ini adalah mempelajari cara rehat sejenak saat melakukan aktivitas sehari-hari, terutama saat Anda merasa resah, gundah, atau terlalu sibuk dan melakukan banyak hal. Meditasi ini terinspirasi dari percakapan dengan bintang tamu podcast saya, Ayu Kartika Dewi (# 30 - Mindfulness in Our Daily Lives).
On this episode of “Active Allyship…it's more than a #hashtag!” … Lisa flies solo with guest Howard Ross, the author of "Everyday Bias: Identifying and Navigating Unconscious Judgements in Our Daily Lives." Howard Ross is lifelong social justice advocate, and is considered one of the world's seminal thought leaders on identifying and addressing unconscious bias. Howard has delivered programs in 47 states and over 40 other countries to audiences including Fortune 500 companies, colleges and universities, and major institutions within healthcare, government, and non-profit sectors. According the Howard J. Ross, to be human is to be biased. Lisa and Howard explore the biases we each carry within us and talk about how unconscious bias impacts our day-to-day lives. The good news? Howard shares ways that we can engage to disengage the impact of their own biases. After the interview, Sunni and Lisa share a positive story in this weeks "Did You Know." from www.goodblacknews.org about authors N.K. Jemisin and Jacqueline Woodson who are among the 2020 MacArthur "Genius" Fellows who are awarded a no strings attached $625K grant! "Every year, the MacArthur Fellows Program awards its recipients a $625,000 “no strings attached” grant, an investment in a person's originality, insight, and potential so they may continue to “exercise their own creative instincts for the benefit of human society.” In 2020, nine of the 21 “geniuses” that have been selected are Black."Enjoy the show!

No one wants to admit it. In fact we get defensive when accused of it. In most cases we go into denial and rationalize it. What am I talking about: Bias. The fact of the matter is bias comes with being human. Every single person in the world has bias. You in fact are biased! Did you notice how you felt as you read that? You are biased. It may have made you mad. It may have had a "knee jerk" reaction of "no I am not!". You may have wanted to stop reading. That's how powerful bias can be. Hold on, before you stop reading on, let me explain that bias is a built in mechanism in our brains that actually has some value. In side our brain more toward the middle of it actually are these physical structures called the amygdala and the hippocampus. They are built in to help us deal with potential danger and memory among other things. As we develop a life time of memories these structures turn on as we encounter different people and situations to help us quickly deal with the issues at hand. The problem is that we will find that we are more often wrong that right when it comes to our judgement and what we thought was dangerous, was in fact a false perception. In this episode of A New Direction Howard Ross helps us not only understand how we develop our biases, but how we can over come them. In his book "Every Day Bias: Identifying and Navigating Unconscious Judgements in Our Daily Lives" Howard not only explains how we get to become biased, but then the complicated challenge of changing our bias. By the way if you think logic is the answer to changing someone's bias...think again...logic doesn't work and Howard explains this in his book. So what does it take to change ourselves and our bias? Take a listen to the show, you will find it both enlightening and informational. But I will tell you this as Howard Ross says over and over again...the first thing is stop beating yourself up with guilt for feeling biased because guilt doesn't change you it only distresses you.

Do you know that you can bring awareness to the present moment regardless of what you are doing? This short 8-minute active meditation is an alternative from practicing mindfulness in formal seated meditations. It can be done at any moment when it's safe. So hopefully not while you are driving or performing surgery when you might risk danger to yourself or others. The intention at the start and the end of this meditation: "My intention is to practice mindfulness, so I will be mindful and aware of the sensations in my body, and when I notice that my mind is wandering, I'll gently bring my awareness back to the sensations in my body". The benefits you might experience from this practice is to help you learn how to pause and take a step back in the midst of your daily activities, especially when you are distracted, multitasking, or feeling emotionally reactive. This meditation is inspired by the conversation with my podcast guest, Ayu Kartika Dewi (#30 - Mindfulness in Our Daily Lives).

Advocacy takes on different roles in order to empower the voice and impact the lives of people. In today's episode, I had the opportunity to speak with Howard Ross about the past, present, and future of advocacy. Education will always be what inspires change and action will be the driving force. We see it throughout history. "My whole life I've come to realize that if you're going to spend your life shaking the trees, occasionally a coconut is going to hit you on the head."Fighting for the rights of others means fighting for a better society. Howard went to his first Civil Rights at the age of 15 and with over 55 years of advocating for others, you can see that it made a huge impact in his life. He shared with us significant impacts that his family has made when it came to advocacy. Being Jewish during the Holocaust, 43 members of Howard's family were murdered. His own grandfather was living in a village where 100 Jews were killed by Nazis. The emotional impact of what we see, hear, and live through can be the spark to initiate change. It can become a heavy shadow on the families, communities, and generations that are connected to it in some way. We see a huge shift as younger generations are taking the reigns and demanding results in a similar way that we saw Baby Boomers do when they were younger. On one hand, it can make you proud that they have the motivation to do so but on the other, it can be saddening that we are still fighting the same fight.Howard dropped nuggets about we can do better when it comes to understanding and or being part of the current wave of advocates. I stumbled into advocacy because of my personal experiences with homelessness, abuse, molestation, and divorce. Prejudice against a certain group of people usually comes from a disconnect between their story and your own. Howard's nuggets: ~ Remember those that came before you and the life the lived ~ Use the emotional impact as fuel but be strategic ~ Understand that change does not always happen immediately~ Do the research on what you hear~ Protests matter and have their place in initiating change ~ Anger and rage are valid emotions when you feel unheard or mistreated~ NEVER label the majority by the actions of the few This episode will be my most memorable because the current climate of the world is a tough one to navigate. I appreciate the advocates that stand up in the face of fear, miseducation, prejudice, and miscommunication to fight for something bigger than them. I think back to when I first watched movies like Freedom Writers and Lean on Me. It was significant for me because it was a seed of understanding that we each can do something that matters. We each have the power to make an impact. To the advocates who consistently fight for change...we see you! Thank you!

Seasons are Part of Our Daily Lives and Experiences. We are at every point in time, reminded that what we are currently going through is a scene out of the whole play of our lives. You should listen to this.
• No, you're not immune to bias • “Work that really does have an impact is when you help people understand the way they're making decisions” Howard Ross, a lifelong social justice advocate, and author of the book, “Everyday Bias: Identifying and Navigating Unconscious Judgments in Our Daily Lives,” says the more we think we are immune to biases, the greater likelihood that our own are invisible to us. “We tend to think that human beings are rational in our decision making,” Mr. Ross says. “But in fact we know now … that virtually every human decision starts with our emotion.” He says unconscious bias is an area of study that is still developing. “What we're finding is the kind of work that really does have an impact is when you help people understand the way they're making decisions,” Mr. Ross says. Howard Ross talks about unconscious bias in this exclusive Bizgnus Audio Interview Podcast… including why Subaru makes such effective TV commercials.
Host and NASM Master Instructor Rick Richey is joined by a special guest Dr. Mallory Fox CPT, CES, PES, FNS, WFS. The two discuss the blending of mindfulness practices with exercise to build stress resilience. To be mindful means we focus our attention on the present moment without judgment. By practicing mindfulness, the goal is to cultivate the ability to be present to internal thoughts, feelings, stresses, and sensations. This skill helps improve health metrics like blood pressure and heart rate and reduces stress. But how can we do this when we have app notifications, work, family, emails, and a new way of living since the spread of COVID-19? Even if we have the phones turned off, we might feel the urge to stay plugged in. Watch the video to see how we can all find some inner peace amid this stressful world we all live in.

Our Search for Belonging My interview with Howard J Ross discussing his book Our Search for Belonging: How Our Need to Connect Is Tearing Us Apart. At the core of tribalism exists a paradox: as humans, we are hardwired with the need to belong, which ends up making us deeply connected with some yet deeply divided from others. We discuss why this is becoming more paramount in society and how it is negatively affecting today's culture. We then delve into what we can do about it. An interesting conversation and inspiring one. Why open-mindedness can lead to a more fulfilled life individually and collectively. Guest Bio. Howard J.

His new book, Our Search for Belonging: How the Need for Connection Is Tearing Our Culture Apart (Berrett-Koehler, May 8, 2018) describes how to bridge the divide in our increasingly polarized society. “don't fall into the trap of having your success and particularly monetary success being the ultimate decider of your actions… When we stay mission focused, when we stay focused on the core of what we are trying to accomplish with our work and the passion that had as want to do that work to begin with and ultimately how well we do financially is a good measure how successful or effective we are doing that.

Episode #35: Goddess 101, pt. 2 – The Goddess in Our Daily Lives. In this episode, we discuss what it means to have a relationship with the Goddess. What does it mean to work with the Goddess and be devoted to Her? Many who believe in the Goddess are Pagan. We define it and what kinds of Pagans (Neopagans) there are in the modern world: pantheistic, polytheistic, animistic, and more. There is devotion, but her children do not bow down. We discuss the heartfelt, respectful, and mutual love between divine Spirit and divine human. Recording this on the day Christine Blasey Ford and Brett Kavanaugh testified, we had to have a conversation on the balance of feminine and masculine power in the world. We ask, before the final hearing, what would the outcome be if there were balanced equality between men and women? What if the Goddess had not been laid low by the patriarchy and the Burning Times? Could there be less fear, more self-understanding, kindness, and consideration in our communication and dealings with one another had the Goddess been in our civilized consciousness all along? The Goddess and the God are within us and hold hands with all of us anyway on this sacred earth. So may it be, as we continue on our journey from here!
Whether or not we are aware of it, each and everyone one of us is biased. It’s actually not always a bad thing and, in fact, it’s a natural function of the human mind. But as learning leaders, if we aren’t in tune with the fact that we are constantly forming biases – and the ways in which they are shaping our thoughts and actions – it’s impossible to ever overcome them. Howard Ross, founding partner of Cook Ross, is considered one of the world’s leading thinkers on identifying and addressing unconscious bias. He’s also author of Everyday Bias: Identifying and Navigating Unconscious Judgments in Our Daily Lives and Our Search for Belonging: How the Need for Connection is Tearing Our Culture Apart. And as a learning and development professional with over 17 years of experience in diversity, inclusion, and intercultural learning, Shilpa Alimchandani is the Director of Learning and Innovation at Cook Ross. In her role, she leads the firm’s efforts to co-create learning solutions with its clients. In this episode of the Leading Learning podcast, Jeff talks with Howard and Shilpa about the concept of unconscious bias including why it’s important, the benefits of bringing awareness to it, and ways to disrupt bias both personally and as facilitators of learning. Full show notes available at https://www.leadinglearning.com/episode140. Highlighted Resource – a collection of Thought Papers that Cook Ross makes available on its Web site (completely free and don’t require an e-mail address) - they cover a range of topics related to diversity and bias. Among the resources there you will find Howard Ross’ white paper ”Everyday Bias: Further Explorations into How the Unconscious Mind Shapes Our World at Work,” which is a great introduction to the issues he explores in more depth in his book Everyday Bias. Note also that Jeff wrote a blog post that looks at how the bias patterns that Howard identifies in his book can impact learning.
