Podcasts about playing nice

In this special episode of Women's Business, I speak to Leila Ainge, my brilliant co-conspirator in our recent research project 'Good Girl Economics: The Price of Playing Nice.' This conversation is a review of our research: why do it, why now, the trends we discovered, and what we've both learned and will be implementing off the back of this research - particularly around pricing and perception. Join us as we uncover why women find it challenging to discuss profit, the impact of internalised misogyny, and how we can shift our mindset to embrace sustainable success. Leila's background in psychology enriches our conversation, making this a must-listen for women navigating their entrepreneurial journeys.  

In this solo deep dive, Dani unpacks the deleterious dark side of “niceness,” and explores how our cultural obsession with being good, polite, and palatable keeps us dishonest, disconnected, and disempowered — and how reclaiming authenticity is the only path to real integrity and intimacy. Along the way, she explores the weaponization of “privilege,” the pitfalls of polarized thinking, and the covert ways philanthropy and media co-opt truth-telling.This episode is a fiery reminder that playing “nice” isn't the same thing as being kind — and that speaking truth, even when it's uncomfortable, is the most loving act of all.Tune in, share widely, and stop being nice already!Watch on Odysee.

The “experts” were wrong again. For months, Americans were told that the U.S. was embroiled in a losing “trade war” with China, preventing the two world powers from striking any sort of deal. However, in the face of this supposed adversity, Chinese leader Xi Jinping and President Donald Trump inked a trade and economic deal, which included key Chinese concessions: agreeing to buy more U.S. soybeans, ease export controls on rare earth minerals, and crack down on fentanyl production chemicals. “In other words, China is trying to be nice to us because it's afraid. Because it understands that the United States always had the potential, as a free, consensual society, to be more dynamic, stronger, and have a much greater role in the world” and that the only thing holding us back was Joe Biden's ineffectual leadership, argues Victor Davis Hanson on today's edition of “Victor Davis Hanson: In His Own Words.”

The Kohanim - descendants of Aharon the peace-pursuer - executed their own relatives after the Golden Calf. How can aggressive acts create harmony?

Where are you keeping yourself small, and what might change if you stopped? In this honest conversation, Whitney sits down with Lisa Marchiano, Jungian analyst and author of The Vital Spark, to talk about the parts of ourselves we've been taught to keep quiet. Lisa shares insights about the “outlaw” energies that live inside every woman that often get buried under a lifetime of trying to be nice, agreeable, and accommodating.   Lisa explores what it means to reconnect with our full selves. She offers a refreshing perspective on how embracing traits like assertiveness and self-authority isn't selfish, but necessary. Lisa also touches on how these patterns show up in parenting, and how we can raise the next generation to honor their truth instead of shrinking to fit in.   This episode is an invitation to stop shrinking and start expanding into the fullness of who you are. Here's what you can look forward to in this episode: Embracing assertiveness and authority Navigating anger and resentment Reclaiming the trickster energy The importance of being disagreeable Reflection question to ponder:  Where am I keeping myself small?   **Calling Her In: **10 Soulful Journaling Prompts to Connect with your Future Self Join the waitlist for the next round of Season to Shift starting Fall 2025   Connect with Whitney: Instagram l Website l 5 Days to Less Stress, More Satisfaction l Tend to Your Soul Toolkit l Electric Ideas Podcast   Connect with Lisa: Instagram | Website | Book: The Vital Spark | Podcast

Can we talk about what's really going on here? There's a seismic shift happening in Washington, and it's got the usual suspects in a total meltdown.

The establishment doesn't know what hit them, and honestly, it's about time! This isn't just a reshuffle—it's a movement, and you need to hear what's coming next. Let's dive in!

Without a doubt, he's one of the most fascinating artists on the rock timeline. In fact, Alice Cooper has done such an incredible job of making sure that rock has an enduring spectacle element to it, of being kind of the embodiment of the freaky side of rock, that it's hard to imagine that there wasn't ever an Alice Cooper on stage somewhere, snakes, guillotines, electric chairs and all. But of course there was, and it took a while for Alice Cooper's brand of entertainment to catch hold. When the Billion Dollar Babies album was released in 1973, Alice Cooper topped the charts, the world finally catching up with the idea that glam rock could be the vehicle for a brutal caricature, a theatrical madman, an entertainer who has also come to be known as one of the nicest guys in rock. So it's funny that one of the hits on that album is about not playing nice anymore in favor of letting one's freak flag fly.

Jason Schreier, Bloomberg journalist and author of the new book Play Nice: The Rise, Fall, and Future of Blizzard Entertainment, joins Roth to talk about what's been going on with the company that makes Warcraft and Overwatch. Along with Defector comrade Luis Paez-Pumar, they discuss what the story of Blizzard means for the story of gaming as a whole and the similarities between media companies and games companies, especially when comparing Blizzard and G/O Media. Don't worry, they balance it out by naming so many guys who were on the Jets and Nets in the 2000s and diving into the Funbag.Do you want to hear your question answered on the pod?

Joe Jonas and Sophie Turner's split started messy, but then got a little bit of a clean-up. A month after the middle Jonas brother and the “Game of Thrones” star announced they were divorcing - they reached a temporary custody agreement regarding their two young daughters.

So it looks like - at least for now - Sophie and Joe are playing nice.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
