If we're going to see change happen, it's going to be because people change and that doesn't occur when you preach to them or you evangelize or anything else. It comes because people, in whatever way is appropriate for them, as individuals, begin to reevaluate the way they live, the way their friends live, and make different choices and say to the government, more has to be done. Because what we're losing and what the next generation, our children and grandchildren will lose is immeasurable and we have to act now. Later is too late. So Climate Legacy essentially is trying to identify what are the ways in which you have that conversation with people.In this episode, former CEO, climate activist and social innovator Tim Brodhead takes us on a reflective journey through his extensive experience in philanthropy and international development. He shares his evolving perspectives, from initially believing in the capacity of developed countries to aid ‘undeveloped' nations, to recognizing the often exploitative dynamics at play between wealthy and poorer countries. This shift has led him to focus on the importance of educating Canadians about the unsustainability of their lifestyles and the need for mutual enlightenment over traditional aid approaches.When I arrived at Tim home in Metcalfe Ontario, south of Ottawa, I was greeted by a warm, gentle smile and the sweet sound of an antique grandmother clock, whose ticking and bells became a leitmotif throughout our conversation(Sound of clock)Tim Brodhead is as accomplished as he is humble. He was president and chief executive officer of the J.W. McConnell Family Foundation from 1995 to 2011. From 2013 to 2014, he served as interim president and chief executive officer of the Pierre Elliott Trudeau Foundation.Prior to joining McConnell, Tim spent 25 years working in international development, mainly in West Africa, South Sudan, India, and Bangladesh. He was the founding executive director of ACORD, based in London, U.K., and in 1975, he co-founded the Canadian development agency Inter Pares which is based here in Ottawa just down the street from my home. Before our conversation Tim sent me an email with some initial responses to my question about the ‘end of the world as we know it and how to create conditions for new worlds to emerge?'.He started with a historical perspective : Over stretch of a millennium a relatively small community in N-E Europe embarked on some pretty big social experiments: enclosing common lands and the emergence of private ownership as the prime creator of wealth; a splitting of spiritual and material worlds (“Cogito ergo sum”), the conception of private property backed up by State power as the source of personal security, the patriarchal and hierarchical nature of authority, the faith in science and technology as the main drivers of ‘progress', etc. The experiment unfolded brilliantly for several centuries and material well-being grew by leaps and bounds - along with wars of dispossession, despoiling of the natural environment, yawning inequality in all the markers of human well-being, etc.He goes on to note some of the failings of modernity : But then it emerges that the experiments are failing - the costs outweigh the benefits, the fruits are too unequally divided, the ecosystem is pushed beyond its capacity to assure the essentials of life. The civilization that embodies these experiments begins to undergo a catastrophic failure. This has happened before; civilizations rise and fall. The problem this time is that the process of colonization has produced a global mono-culture. The values, beliefs and institutions that emerged in NE Europe have spread all over the globe; they are called ‘modernity' and ‘progress' and those who don't yet have them aspire to acquire them as fast as possible. The alternative beliefs and understandings - the famous ‘other ways of seeing, knowing and being' have been stamped out or suppressed. Yes, islands of resistance remain, mostly in Indigenous communities, but they have the status of folklore.Tim concludes his pre-interview email with this insight about one of the sources of our problems : The world-as-we-know-it may be ending but it has some pretty fierce defenders - all those whose wealth and privilege are at risk, plus those who cannot conceive of alternatives, and those who firmly believe that technology still has the power to solve our problems. The media, knowledge and education systems, cultural industries, commercial and advertising are all controlled by those with wealth and power and they all reinforce the fundamental message: This is the way the world works; if you can't see that, YOU are the problem! I agree. So what do you suggest we do, Tim? We need to rethink and reform and invest in new approaches and we're by and large unwilling to do it. So the need for social innovation is as strong now as it has ever been, but the facile use of language, like everyone is a changemaker, just ignores the fact that this is really hard work.Ok Tim. Let's get to work. it's really a question of time at this point, isn'it?(Clock continues until one bell is rung) But wait, what about art? Is it our saving grace or a voice of consolation? A warning, listeners, near the end of the recording you'll hear a long silence as we listen together for the 11am ring of the grandmother clock. Enjoy. It's July 16th 2024, 10.17 am and we're in Tim Brodhead's dining room. Tic toc tic toc… Tim recommended, in terms of reading Mary Oliver's suggestion in Instructions for Living a Life : pay attention, be astonished, tell about it. *Chapters of the podcast (generated by AI, reviewed by Claude Schryer)Welcome The conversation begins with a warm welcome as the host introduces Tim Brodhead, setting the stage for a discussion on art and societal themes. The intriguing ticking clock adds an element of anticipation to the dialogue.Reflections on DevelopmentTim shares his background in philanthropy and international development, reflecting on the naive perceptions of helping ‘developing' countries.

The Kiln School – Application for Comprehensive Supervision and Training ProgramI've said it before, and I'll say it again: as a group, therapists tend to have some pretty similar formative childhood experiences.Our shared experiences as parentified children not only draw us to this field, but according to today's guest, they fundamentally influence and shape how we practice once we become therapists. This understanding can foster a sense of connection and empathy among us, enhancing our ability to relate to our clients.From the modalities and techniques we employ to the all-too-common fear of hurting our clients' feelings, Dr. Karen Maroda asserts that how we approach our profession is deeply tied to how we were parentified. By acknowledging and examining these impacts, we can take control of our practice, helping our clients grow and ensuring a sustainable career in the field. Dr. Maroda's work is not just theoretical. It's a call to action, urging us to embrace clinical and personal courage. It's a roadmap, guiding us on how to navigate our roles as therapists in light of our formative childhood experiences.Karen J. Maroda, PhD, ABPP, is a psychologist/psychoanalyst in private practice in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, and Assistant Clinical Professor of Psychiatry at the Medical College of Wisconsin. She is the author of several books, including The Analyst's Vulnerability: Impact on Theory and Practice, and has published numerous journal articles, book chapters, and book reviews. She lectures nationally and internationally on the therapeutic process, including the place of affect, self-disclosure, countertransference, legitimate authority, and the need for clinical guidelines. Listen to the full episode to hear:How our parentification as children can be an indicator of our potential empathic strengthsHow parentification often sets us up to be conflict-avoidant and self-sacrificing, to the detriment of ourselves and our clientsHow treating our clients as excessively fragile or infantile hinders their ability to get betterThe real antidote to feeling frustrated and disengaged with a client who's not making progressThe relationship between our outsized fear of harming clients and our fear of our anger and frustration that was forged in childhood Learn more about Dr. Karen Maroda:The Analyst's Vulnerability: Impact on Theory and PracticeLearn more about Riva Stoudt:Into the Woods CounselingThe Kiln SchoolInstagram: @atherapistcantsaythatResources:Season 2 Ep 10: Client Relationships in the Trenches: The Role of Self-Validated IntimacyA Curious Calling: Unconscious Motivations for Practicing Psychotherapy, Michael B.

Want Inspiration by a $100M Avid Adventurer?Journey Into Peace: A Language for Peace, Progress, & Healing by Michael M. StarrDo you believe you can create Heaven on earth? This book will show how to improve your language to make peace with the past, progress with the future, and enjoy today free of guilt and resentment.Author Mike Starr exposes the startling truth that the everyday language we use causes much of the suffering, conflict, anger and despair many of us face today. To combat this problem, the author advocates a way of living called “Betterism” with its use of wise empowering language to continuously improve your life. In addition, the book offers tools that will help guide your Journey Into Peace with integrity, at an unprecedented level of harmony and calm.Reading this book will show you:How to use wise empowering languageWays to avoid dangerous and useless language“Three Sacred Habits” to propel progressThe commonly used words that hinder peopleOver 20 “States of Being” that will serve as your sword, shield and compass Our adventures and travels can be view with three perspectives:1. Excited anticipation and preparation with the upcoming experience(s)2. Fully enjoying and maximizing the moments of "Now" by savoring the experiences as they occur; unencumbered by the baggage of animosity, disappointment, "should have" or "could have".3. Fond reflection of the memories of our travel/adventureBy improving our day-to-day language, we greatly enhance all 3 components of our life experiences ... whether they were planned or impromptu. When we understand NOOT (the "Natural Order Of Things") we give up battling reality and learn to work with it or around it as "Resistance is Futile". Empathy followed by wise boundaries with consequences are key to freeing ourselves to fully enjoy people, places and experiences.I'm an avid adventurer and seasoned expert problem solver who has canoed 54 days from Pittsburgh to New Orleans ... climbed Mt Kilimanjaro in 10 days … managed a $100 million a year manufacturing business & operated a nuclear-powered submarine as a Naval Officer (up to 72 days continuously submerged).I have discovered that many words have self-fulfilling prophecies woven within them that can create either a Heaven or Hell on Earth for us. Use of improved language can be the difference between success and failure, conflict and harmony, enjoyment or suffering. There is a significant difference in our behavior toward another with seeing them as "unfriendly" as opposed to being "afraid" or "insecure" ... we tend to be far more empathetic, kind, respectful and effective in our communications with the later.------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Improve our language --- improved thinking --- improved perception of people & the world--- empowered, wise responses, & decisions --- long term desirable outcomes/results with less suffering, conflict, & despair and more peace of mind.------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ I do believe if we improve our language, we improve the way we think and consequently alter our perceptions of the world around us ... including our past experiences. The result can be better responses and decisions with today's and tomorrow's circumstances. Likewise, we are far more capable of making effective and sustainable plans for the future. My book "Journey Into Peace ... A Language for Peace, Progress, & Healing" is about how to:Make peace with the past, meaningful progress in the future, and live today free of guilt or resentment. It is about a way of living I call "Betterism".Our current language is seriously flawed. Useless words like "forgiveness" and "patience" take us nowhere ... dangerous labels like "unfriendly" or "success" can become toxic and derail us. With new words within a new language, we can improve our relationships and solve important problems. This new language avoids "useless" and "dangerous" words and uses "wise empowering" language and "states of being" to guide us forward on a healthy trajectory.SincerelyMichael M.

On this episode of In The Circle, we have an amazing inquiry from Daphne about one of the Four Aggravations—Procrastination. When we procrastinate, we reinforce stress in our bodies and create a less-than-peaceful way to live. We repeat a pattern that perpetuates feelings of discomfort, resulting in new ways to distract ourselves to avoid the ongoing pain. Procrastination is what I consider to be one of the most overlooked, addictive, and destructive behaviors, which is why I am so grateful for this question. Together, we'll explore procrastination, some of its causes, and many ways we can overcome it.This discussion is for anyone who knows the pain of avoidance and putting off the pursuit of our dreams.

It involves untangling the many misconceptions that people lug around due to their upbringing or the various cultural sound bites they've consciously absorbed into their religious point of view. Apologetics serves to clear away the intellectual rubble strewn about by our cultural moment and the entrenched assumptions of our day, providing the message of Jesus with a fairer hearing in the marketplace of ideas.-Paul Chamberlain and Chris Price, Everyday ApologeticsApologetics, in its most basic form, is the practice of offering an appeal and a defense for the Christian faith.-Joshua Chatraw and Mark Allen, Apologetics at The CrossThe Judeo-Christian view of God and reality is in stark contrast to all other ancient views!MODERN HUMAN VALUESEquality, Compassion, Consent, Enlightenment, Science, Freedom, and ProgressThe extraordinary impact of Christianity is seen in the fact that you don't notice it.

There are all sorts of ways to struggle with getting things done.

Running a business requires coordination among several moving parts working together towards a common goal. And while it's safe to assume that everyone has a clear and crucial role to play, one department that often bears the pressure to prove its mettle is marketing. In this episode of the Love Selling Hate sales podcast, Josh Wagner talks to management consultant and SVP and Managing Director, Client Advisory for Shift Paradigm, Mark Goblirsch. Mark talks about the most common challenges that marketers today face, including the balancing of both art and numbers, as marketing involves both creativity and data-driven approach in its daily operations. He also gives us a high-level overview of the many marketing trends that are emerging in today's fast-paced business environment. HIGHLIGHTSLeads are not the only measure of marketingThe C-Suite often speaks a different language than marketingOrganization beliefs that hinder progressThe kind of marketer that you should be looking for The creative side of marketing is not less important than the resultsEmotional Appeal: Why B2B companies need to act more like B2C QUOTESMark on the pressure that the Chief Marketing Officer experiences: "Sometimes I joke about it being a little bit like Survivor. You don't want to get voted off the island, you end up in this kind of survival mode in what you're going through. And even if you're crushing it, you tend to in that role, you tend to feel the pressure, you feel the stress."Mark on the communication gap between marketing and other departments: "Sometimes folks can end up feeling like they're on a different page when oftentimes they are on the same page. They might be using different nomenclatures or their business plans aren't quite aligned. But communication and how they think about the business, how they talk about it and what those key metrics are, I think are really important to achieve that alignment." Mark on focusing market resources: "You can't market to everybody on the planet all at once. You'll go bankrupt in like 24 hours. So you have to have some methodology for figuring out who to market to and when, and how much."

Amid controversy following the killing of George Floyd, many companies, organizations and universities issued statements about confronting racial injustice. The one from Brown University, emailed to its students, staff and alumni, conformed to what’s become a widely accepted view about racism in America: . . . this is not a mere moment for our country. This is historical, lasting and persistent. Structures of power, deep-rooted histories of oppression, as well as prejudice, outright bigotry and hate, directly and personally affect the lives of millions of people in this nation every minute and every hour. But one professor at Brown University raised his voice in protest against this “structural racism” narrative. In an incisive letter, Glenn Loury objected that letter’s authors treated many controversial and complex claims as if they were obviously true. “Is it supposed to be self-evident that every death of an ‘unarmed black man’ at the hands of a white person tells the same story? [The letter’s authors] speak of ‘deep-rooted systems of oppression; legacies of hate.’ No elaboration required here?” This, he went on, “is no reasoned ethical reflection. Rather, it is indoctrination, virtue-signaling, and the transparent currying of favor with our charges.” “What I found most alarming,” he wrote, “is that no voice was given to what one might have thought would be a university’s principal intellectual contribution to the national debate at this critical moment: namely, to affirm the primacy of reason over violence in calibrating our reactions to the supposed ‘oppression.’” Loury’s rebuttal to the Brown statement reflects his longstanding critique of prevailing “woke” views on racism and how to combat it. An economist and social critic, Loury is the Merton P. Stoltz Professor of the Social Sciences at Brown. He has published more than two hundred essays and reviews in journals and magazines, along with several scholarly books on race and racial inequality. Recently, Onkar Ghate and I talked with Loury about racism in America. Loury’s knowledge of the issues is extensive, and we covered a lot of ground. Among the topics we discussed: Loury’s assessment of the scale of anti-black racism today compared with the climate during the mid-20th centuryThe debates about over-incarceration of blacks and racial bias in school disciplineThe roles of the War on Drugs, minimum wage laws, and the welfare state in impeding economic progressThe underappreciated role of cultural ideas and values in understanding black communitiesThe impact of state-run schools, particularly in impoverished areasThe climate at universities and his experiences teaching a course on race and inequality A point that resonated strongly with me: Talking about the situation on campus, Loury argued that professors have a responsibility, rather than jumping on a bandwagon, to adopt an “objective, critical, analytical posture” toward the issues and racially charged events we’re living through. He observed: “We’re letting our kids down if we don’t have a robust argument” about issues of race today. Listen to or watch the conversation below. Podcast audio:

After her debut in Season One on “Taking the Leap,” I’ve brought Michelle Anthony LaCroix back for a conversation on how to move through our conditioned fears to do the small things that make big shifts in our lives. From establishing habits to trying new activities to putting ourselves out there in new ways, these small pivots allow us to experience more joy and expand our definition of who we are and what we’re capable of.In this episode, we discuss:What gets in our way of making small shifts in our lives, like establishing new habits or trying something new, even when it’s high on our list of goals and intentionsThe paralyzing the fear of failure and the fear of not being good at something can be and how that has held us back both as children and as adultsThe “all or nothing” mentality we fall back on in order to feel in control and avoid messing upHow to combat the stories we’ve told ourselves around failure, like “Everyone is sitting around waiting for me to screw up so they can say, ‘Ha! I told you so,’” or that “If I make a mistake, people will suddenly realize that I’m a human being and I can’t be trusted as easily.”Finding peace in the “worst case scenario”Keeping a “paper trail” of our self-in-progress to normalize our mistakes and celebrate our incremental progressThe discouraging feeling we get when we anticipate something is going to be really hard and how to shift our mindset around challenges for our benefitGoing after sustainable success and earning our “merit badges” rather than short-term avoidance of difficultyHow we often skip out on things that would bring us a lot of pleasure and joy simply because we feel like we have to have a reason for doing it or that it has to lead to something importantJoin the conversation around the habits we’ve established and the small shifts we’ve made in this past year over in the Permission to Pivot Community group on Facebook and on our Instagram profiles: @marissaburdett and @theheartyfig.Quotes:“It’s so much braver and stronger to take the risk and fall on your face and so much easier to be the Internet troll who is going to tear down everyone’s efforts. If that person’s never going to step up and do anything themselves, then why do they matter? Who cares. Let that guy be a troll and keep on moving forward.” - Michelle Anthony LaCroix“Anytime that we start thinking about ‘worst case scenarios,’ the best way to combat that is to start asking ourselves, ‘And then what?’” - Marissa Burdett“The longer we spend avoiding the work because we’re afraid we’re going to be bad at it, we’re just wasting time. It’s an inevitable part of the process and we’re better off investing our time and energy getting comfortable with that truth.” - Michelle Anthony LaCroix“We need to shift from the belief that hard work is bad to hard work is worthwhile.” - Marissa Burdett“It’s a lost cause to set out with the goal of avoiding difficult or hard experiences on your way to where you want to get.” - Michelle Anthony LaCroix“Success is fragile when you don’t have the experience and the ‘oops’ to back that up.” - Michelle Anthony LaCroix“There’s nothing wrong with being intentional, but our intuition doesn’t necessarily have words yet. Sometimes our intuition isn’t logical. Sometimes it doesn’t make sense. If our intuition is guiding us in some way, maybe that’s reason enough, even if you don’t know where you’re going with it.” - Marissa BurdettCheck out the show notes at https://permissiontopivot.com and join the private, free Facebook group: Permission to Pivot Community.
Whether we know it or not, our actions usually align with our ethics, and people with good ethics tend to be trusted and respected more than those whose ethical decision making is questionable. We are going to look at the ethical implications of decisions we make in this weeks’ episode of the Serious Soft Skills podcast. Among the topics cohosts Dr. Tobin Porterfield and Bob Graham discuss are:A definition of ethics and how it applies to workThe value of virtueHow questionable ethics can erode trust of team membersQuestioning cripples progressThe societal effect on our ethicsAre ethics black and white?The Golden RuleShort-term versus long-term benefits and how they relate to ethicsThe personal nature of ethicsHow our ethics set a tone for an organizationTips for Good Ethics at WorkDon’t be deceived by short-term benefitsMatching your ethics to your organization’s ethicsA good book on ethical decision-making, The Power of Ethical Management by Ken Blanchard and Norman Vincent Peale, with three guiding questions on ethics1. Is it legal? 2. Is it balanced? 3. How will it make me feel about myself? Unethical acts erode self-esteem. Next weekWe will talk to Mike Shelah, an expert at LinkedIn on how soft skills play into that social media platform, as well as networking in general. New episodes come out every Wednesday.

Feel like you've got a million things on your to do list and few results to show for it on this Monday? Adrienne Dorison's got a few things to say to you in this Clarity episode!(If you missed our Courage conversation, skip back one to Episode 15!)This isn't necessarily about working less -- it's about making sure the results you're getting match the effort you're putting in. It's deflating to feel you're ALWAYS working on your business, yet you never have the results to show for it. In this episode, Adrienne reveals why this effort and results become lopsided:"Effort does not equal progress. The real gamechanger is effort with direction."Adrienne also shares: What to do in the next 90 days to maximize your progressThe number one mistake people make, which leads to nothing getting completedThe concept of "Most Important Mission", the criteria for it, and how you can put this to work so you never feel you've wasted a day How to handle essential (yet annoying) operational tasks using batching and boundaries The concept of "To Do", "Doing" and "Done", and where your results are getting bottleneckedAdrienne is so hard-hitting in this episode. A few more favorite quotes from her:"Are you choosing easy over results?" "People sit around waiting for motivation, but I think motivation comes from action."

How do you overcome fear?At some point, we’re all afraid of something. Load up enough weight on a back squat, stack up to a high enough box, or try a new skill (like a muscle up), and there it is. It’s the feeling “this might not go well for me”, “I might get hurt”, or “maybe I should play it safe”. Fear is always at play when you’re training hard, whether it’s on day one or year 7. If you’ve never felt it, you aren’t pushing yourself hard enough.jonnylogThe thing is, you need that fear. That fear breaks you out of your comfort zone and gets you to the next level of your training. Nothing worth having in life doesn’t have some sort of fear attached to it. The key is figuring out how to get past it.We talk to Jonny again in today’s episode. It’s all the strategies and tips we’ve used with our athletes and ourselves to overcome fear and continue to make progressThe post Living Better Podcast – Ep 9 – How to overcome fear appeared first on CrossFit Hale.
