In this episode, host Tyler Bloom is joined by Alyson Johnson, a dynamic leader with over 25 years of diverse experience across the golf industry. From her early days in sports psychology to running her own agency, The Gilly Group, Alyson has carved out an impressive career in marketing, branding, communications, and sponsorships within golf. We explore the vast opportunities available in the business of golf—opportunities that extend far beyond playing or teaching. Alyson shares valuable insights on personal branding, the challenges and triumphs women face in this male-dominated industry, and the importance of building diverse skill sets for career growth. You'll also learn about the fascinating world of golf course design, her perspective on creating memorable golf experiences, and her advice for women aspiring to succeed in golf careers. Plus, Alyson gives us a sneak peek at an exciting project she'll be announcing soon. Join us as we uncover actionable strategies and inspiring stories to help you elevate your career and leadership in golf. Let's tee off this insightful conversation with Alyson Johnson! What You'll Learn in this Episode: Business of Golf: Behind-the-scenes efforts in the golf industry create exceptional experiences for players and fans. Career paths extend beyond playing or teaching to include roles in law, HR, finance, and more. Women in Golf Careers: Women face challenges in a male-dominated industry, often hesitating to apply for roles unless fully qualified. Education on opportunities and strong personal branding can empower women to succeed. Personal Branding: A strong personal brand highlights professional appearance, skills, and willingness to learn. It helps others understand your value and opens doors for career growth. Construction and Course Design: The process of creating world-class golf courses involves transforming sketches into reality, with careful consideration of terrain, soil, and water. Alyson's work has given her a deeper appreciation for this art and science. Soundbites: “Many people, not just women, don't fully understand the wide range of career opportunities in the golf industry. When someone says they work in golf, the assumption is often that they are either a player or an instructor. However, the golf industry offers roles in nearly every field, such as law, HR, accounting, culinary arts, and course maintenance. If people realized they could apply their unique skills to a career in golf, it could help address workforce challenges in the industry.” (24:55) "For women, there's an added barrier—many don't feel welcome in golf, even as players. This lack of comfort extends to using golf for professional networking.” (27:08) Key Quotes: “Women are often hesitant to engage due to a fear of seeming inexperienced, whereas men tend to approach these situations with more confidence, even if they're unsure.” “Men will apply for a role even if they meet only one out of ten qualifications, whereas women might hesitate to apply unless they meet nearly all the requirements. This hesitation often stems from a fear of appearing unqualified or not knowing enough, leading women to hold back from trying altogether.” “Golf opens so many doors and provides incredible experiences.” “Too often, different sectors within golf work in silos, complicating things and even stepping on each other's toes. To avoid this, there needs to be more collaboration and understanding between different players in the industry.” “Another challenge is how many players, especially women, don't realize the range of skills they have. Players are often seen as just athletes, but they are also running businesses—handling marketing, travel, strategy, and finances.” “Personal branding also extends to your overall image. Are you professional in appearance and punctual in your commitments? Do you stay informed about industry trends? Who are you surrounding yourself with, and what projects are you working on? Sharing those projects shows the breadth of your experience and knowledge.” Links and Resources Mentioned: LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/alyson-ramsey-johnson/  Website: https://www.gillygroup.com/

Where are all the women in the public realm? There are more statues of animals than named women in London's public spaces. So we look at the first statue of a woman in Parliament Square, Westminster. Listen as we share the story of Millicent Fawcett who, alongside many other women, fought hard to secure women's right to vote. We then take the journey from Westminster to West Hampstead, Camden, where pioneering novelist and educator Beryl Gilroy became one of London's first Black headteachers – at a school that, until recently, was named after a slave-owner. Now, a mural outside the newly renamed primary school where she taught is a permanent celebration of her legacy. Two pieces of eye–catching art tell a multitude of stories – not only of two women's achievements centuries apart, but also of the Windrush generation, London's past links to slavery and empire, and modern-day strides towards feminism. ---------- Presenter: Aindrea Emelife, Curator of Modern and Contemporary at MOWAA (Museum of West African Art). Contributors: Darla Gilroy, Beryl Gilroy's daughter and Associate Dean of the Knowledge Exchange of Central St Martin's; Debbie Weekes-Barnard, Deputy Mayor, Communities and Social Justice; Eleanor Pinfield, Head of Art on the Underground; Justine Simons OBE, Deputy Mayor for Culture and the Creative Industries; Manasi Pophale, founder of History Speak; Zing Tsjeng, journalist and author of the Forgotten Women series.

This episode was recorded on January 4th, 2024. Erin Pizzey, born in China with her twin sister Kate, settled in England after a childhood of frequent moves due to her diplomat father. In 1971, she opened the world's first women's refuge in Chiswick, London, and later established numerous shelters during the 1970s and 1980s. Erin became well-known for her court battles over overcrowded refuges and her appearances on top chat shows, earning a reputation as a crusader for the destitute. Her advocacy extended to squatting in properties to provide shelter. Erin brought domestic violence to public attention, compelling authorities to address the issue. She moved to Santa Fe, New Mexico, in the 1980s after receiving death threats for highlighting female-perpetrated abuse, as detailed in her book "Prone to Violence." She returned to London in 1997 and advocated for male abuse victims, becoming a patron of ManKind Initiative and Families Need Fathers. In 2013, Erin joined the advisory board of A Voice for Men and appeared in the 2016 documentary "The Red Pill." In 2023, she was featured in "Erin: Beyond the Bruises." Erin authored several cult classics, including "Scream Quietly or the Neighbours Will Hear" and "This Way to the Revolution: A Memoir." She believes domestic abuse is generational and not gender-specific, advocating for multi-generational therapy to break the cycle of violence.   Find more from Erin: Erin in Cassie Jaye's landmark documentary The Red Pill: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=irVB8b0zhQI Why I loathe feminism by Erin Pizzey: https://www.dailymail.co.uk/femail/article-1215464/Why-I-loathe-feminism---believe-ultimately-destroy-family.html Erin Pizzey documentary: http://film-directory.britishcouncil.org/erin-beyond-the-bruises Erin on family dynamics / the breakdown of the family: https://youtu.be/53Gmx_wfft8 Documentary: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I7F4GFHI2oY   Connect with me: Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/tammy.m.peterson Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/TammyPetersonPodcast TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@tammypetersonpodcast Twitter: https://twitter.com/Tammy1Peterson Rumble: https://rumble.com/c/TammyPetersonPodcast

Sunday – 23rd June – marks the 11th annual International Women in Engineering Day (INWED), and as always we are celebrating the amazing contribution women engineers make, not just to the profession as a whole, but to society. The 23rd June is significant as it marks the founding day in 1919 that a group of seven women from the National Council of Women met and signed a Memorandum of Agreement which created the Women's Engineering Society WES. The Original Pioneers - the gathering that became WES   WES's early members were campaigners, hands on engineers, inventors, designers, electricians, pilots, managers and administrators. Many of its leaders and committee members were from the better-off industrial middle or upper classes, but the organisation's work covered women working on the shop floor, making their way into management, those accessing formal education and even the female end users of engineering innovations such as the introduction of electricity into the home.   Since its inception, WES has become internationally recognised and continues to drive change in the industry; ensuring women have the opportunities to work and be educated in technical fields, and by campaigning for equal rights and equal pay in a sector which remains heavily male dominated.    2024 Winners of the Top 50 Women in Engineering Award - Seven of whom are IMechE members   My guests are Dawn Bonfield MBE president of the Commonwelth Engineer' Council and past president and former chief executive of the Women's Engineering Society.

In 2021, the International Tennis Hall of Fame inducted its first group of contributors simultaneously: the Original 9. Together in 1970, these nine women broke from the established tennis landscape to sign $1 contracts with promoter Gladys Heldman, creating the first women's tennis tour. The early years of professional women's tennis were challenging, defiant and ultimately, hugely successful in creating equity and a platform for women in sports.Two members of the Original 9, Rosie Casals and Judy Tegart Dalton, along with fellow Hall of Famer Ann Jones, discuss those early years. With Blair Henley, Casals and Dalton share why they risked their careers to break the status quo and why timing in the 1970s was key to gaining momentum. They share memories of playing with and against each other, and the lesser-known hard work behind the scenes of growing women's tennis.Later in the episode, Jones tells Chris Bowers how the camaraderie between the women's players fueled progress in the early years of the Virginia Slims tour. Jones shares how solidarity between the players, regardless of nationality, helped foster a key sense of purpose in making tennis a sustainable career.

Little known stories of pioneering architects — Julia Morgan, the first accredited female architect in California, who designed Hearst Castle and was nearly written out of the history books. Natalie de Blois, who helped imagine the first glass skyscrapers on Park Avenue by day and raised four children by night. Amaza Lee Meredith, a Black queer modernist architect from the 1930s South who helped establish Sag Harbor as a haven for Black intellectuals, artists and beachcombers. A new special from The Kitchen Sisters, the Beverly Willis Architecture Foundation and PRX, hosted by Academy Award-winning actress Frances McDormand. Story production by Brandi Howell for the Beverly Willis Architecture Foundation's podcast, New Angle: Voice, in association with The Kitchen Sisters (Davia Nelson & Nikki Silva), mixed by Jim McKee.

Starting in 1967, when fewer than 1% of women completed any education beyond four years of college, the Washington State University (WSU) Sociology Department dared to hire three female faculty members who became lifelong friends. Lois B. DeFleur, Sandra Ball-Rokeach, and Marilyn Ihinger-Tallman were role models for many women and paved the way for those who followed. Four decades later, volume editor Betty Houchin Winfield, who in 1979 was a new assistant professor in communications at WSU, prompted her former mentors to tell their stories, she had benefited immensely from their support and encouragement. In Winfield's book, We Few, We Academic Sisters: How We Persevered and Excelled in Higher Education, the three women discuss their childhoods, educational and research efforts, personal lives, and career advancements. Though all married professors, they fought to be known as individual scholars, overcoming sexual discrimination and harassment as well as intense societal pressure to follow traditional female roles. Their impressive careers parallel larger national events and the onset of increasing opportunities for women. Initially, associate or assistant professors, all three became full professors when it was exceedingly rare. Dr. DeFleur later held positions as dean, provost, and university president. Dr. Ball-Rokeach gained international status as a major media sociologist, and Dr. Ihinger-Tallman became WSU's first female Chair of the Sociology Department. Don't miss this opportunity to celebrate their inspiring narratives that highlight the importance of community and offer invaluable guidance to the current generation of academics. Betty Houchin Winfield has deep ties to Seattle, where she raised her children and completed her Ph.D. at the University of Washington. While teaching at various universities, including those in Missouri, North Carolina, and Poland, she maintained her Eastlake condo for summer and holiday stays. Throughout her academic career, Winfield achieved remarkable milestones, such as post-doctoral work at Columbia and Harvard, along with receiving prestigious teaching and research awards. She shares similarities with the subjects of We Few, We Academic Sisters by breaking gender barriers, becoming only the second woman to receive the University of Missouri system's Thomas Jefferson Award and the first to hold the Curators' Research Professorship in the University of Missouri School of Journalism. Following her retirement in 2012, she has made Seattle her permanent residence and remains actively engaged in civic projects, including leading the pre-COVID luminaire art project on the Pier 86 Grain Terminal waterfront.

New Zealand's finest artists are coming together to celebrate the women who pioneered rock.  ATOMIC! Hailing the Pioneering Women of Rock harnesses the energy of kiwi musicians Boh Runga, Julia Deans, Dianne Swann, Gussie Larkin, and Jazmine Mary as they perform a catalogue of hits fronted by rock's iconic female artists.  Julia Deans told Mike Hosking that the music is predominantly from the early seventies to the late eighties.   She said they had to draw the line there because they only had space for about a hundred songs.  “There's just too many good songs.”   LISTEN ABOVE See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Welcome back to another episode of noseyAF! Episode 37!! I am still keeping the series going with the "On the Rock" series! In this engaging episode, artists Melissa Potter and Susannah Papish are two incredible women I spoke to while I was at my residency in Pouch Cove. In this conversation, I delve into their journeys within the art realm and their collaborative project, "Invisible Labors." Melissa touches upon her unorthodox route into the arts, spurred by her mother's encouragement. At the same time, Susannah recalls her formative experiences at the Art Institute and her deep dive into art history at the University of Illinois Chicago. The heart of their discussion centers on "Invisible Labors," a rich exploration of the women from the Blue Island area, spotlighting their roles in gardening, farming, and community engagements. They also discuss the pressing environmental concern of the vanishing prairies in Illinois and the vital importance of soil health. Dive in to hear two passionate artists discuss their work, inspirations, and the environmental ties that bind their projects.   Follow Melissa and Susannah and learn more about their project, "Invisible Labors."

This week we speak to Brooke Kroeger, a journalist, professor, and author who wrote Undaunted: How Women Changed American Journalism.

Born in 1895 in Lynchburg, VA, Amaza Lee Meredith was an African American architect, artist and educator who taught at Virginia State College where she founded the art department. Despite the fact she was never a registered architect, she was one of the few Black architects practicing at the time, and one of the country's very few Black women architects. In 1939, Amaza designed Azurest South, a tidy white International Style house on the edge of the Virginia State University Campus, where she and her life-long partner Edna Meade Colson lived. Both women maintained significant teaching positions at the University, living openly queer lives. In 1947 Amaza and her sister Maude began developing Azura North, a 120 lot subdivision and vacation destination for middle class African Americans in Sag Harbor, New York, near the summer haunts of Melville, Steinbeck, Betty Friedan, Spaulding Gray. During the 1950s & 60s the community grew as a Black vacation spot attracting celebrities like Lena Horne and Harry Belafonte. Together, the homes and communities that Amaza Lee Meredith helped establish provided a sense of joy, pleasure, and a safe haven for members of the Black community, at a time when this wasn't always possible. This episode explores the intersections of sexuality, modernity, art, architecture, and the faith community that nurtured this pair of lovers.  Amaza and Edna found their home in each other and shared it openly with their church, their colleagues and their students. Special thanks to host Cynthia Kracauer, writers Jacqueline Taylor and Jessica Lynne, and to Brooke Williams who graciously provided Sag Harbor resident insights, as did advocates and preservationists Georgette Grier-Key, Michael Butler, and Renee Simons.  And to Reverend Grady Powell and Reverend Dr.  George WC Lyons from Gillfield Baptist Church in Petersburg, Virginia. Franklin Johnson-Norwood is the Director of Alumni Relations at Virginia State University, and our excellent tour guide for Azurest South, and to Christina Morris of the National Trust for Historic Preservation.

How can we unlock our biggest untapped resource – women?

I picked up a free glossy real estate magazine with an enticing photograph of summer leisure pursuits under the title Sag Harbor: A Whale of a Good Time. We traveled out there in early spring, collecting voices of preservation, community, celebrity, and long tenured summer families as we searched for Amaza Lee Meredith's modern architecture. A short bike ride away from the summer haunts of Melville, Steinbeck, Betty Friedan, Spaulding Gray, lived the creator of Azurest North, the Black summer real estate enclave syndicated by Amaza Lee Meredith with her sister Maude Terry. But on the beach we found only Maude's name enshrined on the commemorative plaque.   For decades, Amaza and her life-long partner Edna Meade Colson, made an annual migration to enjoy the respite and comfort of their shared northern home.  Hundreds of miles south is their other Azurest—a tidy white International Style house on the edge of the Virginia State University Campus where Meredith and Colson both maintained significant teaching positions, living openly queer lives.   Together, the homes and communities that Meredith helped establish provided a sense of joy and pleasure to those at a time when this wasn't always possible.  And her story, as it continues to unfold with time, is a point of inspiration for those who have been lucky enough to discover it.   In this episode, we explore the intersections of sexuality, modernity, art, architecture, and the faith community that nurtured this pair of lovers.  Amaza and Edna found their home in each other and shared it openly with their church, their colleagues and their students.   Listen to Amaza Lee Meredith:  Love and Home.

New Episode Today!! Today we'll come around these intriguing questions: What if His presence is really His plan for us? And, what if His will for our lives is simply to walk with Him and treasure His “withness” with us more than anything? The longer I live, the more I'm convinced that the mundane really is the platform that God uses to refine us and grow us…to even shape our lives for longevity! Our part in it is learning to be aware of His presence and being willing to consistently meet with Him in the rhythm of our ordinary days. I know for me, it's easy to allow the thing I'm building FOR Him to blind me from truly just seeing Him. I'm also going to share a song with you today called “Evermore” that comes around this beautiful theme of His presence being what He values most on our behalf! I'll talk to you soon! -ChristySupport the showWatch 'This is the Hour'Watch 'Evermore'Watch 'Where Would I Be?'

Y'all, it's back. I'M BACK! I'm so excited to relaunch The Glorious in the Mundane podcast this week! You probably guessed that I'm going to be coming around my new album called “This is the Hour,” available everywhere you listen to music! I'm not coming around these songs just for the song's sake—I just believe that God has shown me so much in the past few years of writing and recording these songs and I'm excited to tell the stories and to testify of God's faithfulness once again and to encourage you that your “ordinary” is a place where God wants to meet with you and shape you into who He's always known you to be!
