What is race? What is racism? How can schools and companies address racism?Scilla Andreen is on a mission to answer these questions and more in her soon to be released documentary, “RACE To Be Human”.Andreen is an award-winning producer, director and CEO/Co-Founder of IndieFlix. The global streaming and screening service provides content for a purpose. She is also an Emmy-nominated costume designer for the original TV series, “The Wonder Years”.That was the beginning of a long and storied resume that now includes creating films to engage, empower and teach communities, schools and corporations. The goal: to help us lead happier, healthier and more connected lives.Tackling Tough TopicsConnection, of course, is key. That ever-elusive element when tackling tough topics — like race. Andreen's approach is rooted in the belief that you must meet people where they are. From there, you can foster conversations that lead to trust and understanding.“RACE To Be Human” shows us the impact of racism on our mental health through the lens of students, experts and educators.It's a powerful film that is meant to open discussions in the classroom, the workplace and at home, promoting empathy, healing and compassion.What Does It Mean To Be Human?In January of 2021, I did an Our Voices Matter podcast episode called “What Does It Mean To Be Human?"I was compelled that day to share my raw, unfiltered thoughts in response to the assault of a previous podcast guest.One year later, Andreen's brilliant documentary addresses that same question in a different way.The courage and vulnerability of the young people who share their stories is breathtaking.Our job is to listen and believe what they say.www.ourvoicesmatterpodcast.comwww.lorellemedia.comThis podcast is devoted to empowering us all to better understand each other's differences...one story at a time. Emmy Award-winning journalist, Linda Lorelle, guides guests through insightful, unexpected conversations that reveal our common humanity. This show is not about politics per se; it is about finding a way to reclaim civility in the context of the contentious times in which we live, by sharing our personal and professional stories, in hopes that others might find a glimpse of themselves.Support the show (http://patreon.com/OurVoicesMatterPodcast)

You can have a great idea you, can even have the funding for it. But you need to leave room in the execution of that model to have that variance, the human condition variance. You can pull all the data, you can interpret all the data, you can look at all the comps, you can see all this stuff. I will tell you that you have to go with your gut. You have to do gut checks all the time. And you have to leave a little room for something to happen. I don't mean, be negative; it will not work that way. It's more like something amazing could happen in that little space that you leave for magic to happen. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/the-inventive-journey/message

Scilla was in Hong Kong screening her latest film ‘Angst’ in schools, to parents and members of the community. Scilla shares her life journey with us giving us a glimpse into how she began her career in the film industry, eventually starting her own company IndieFlix. Scilla was bullied as a child and that was the inspiration for her getting on board to help distribute ‘Finding Kind’ where Lauren Paul and Molly Thompson who made this film explore the bullying epidemic amongst girls in particular. These women started a ‘Kind Campaign’ to spread kindness around the globe and Scilla was thrilled to be part of growing this movement. Scilla was also one of the producers of a film called ‘Screenagers’ and she shares why she is so passionate about the topic of teens and their use of technology. The film helps parents and teenagers navigate the digital age. Scilla discusses her most recent film ‘Angst’ and shares her deeply personal story that was the catalyst for her embarking on this film project about anxiety. This moving and inspirational film provides us with tools to manage anxiety whilst opening up the dialogue about this uncomfortable issue that affects so many of us. Scilla and her producing partner Karin Gornick have made it “kind of cool to talk about anxiety” and this film ‘Angst’ is helping so many people who are lucky enough to view it. This film gives permission to people to talk about their vulnerabilities and their fears. Scilla also shares details about her next project ‘LIKE’ which is about the addictive nature of social media and the dopamine that is released when we receive likes on our social media pages. Her hope is that anyone who watches ‘LIKE’ will be inspired to self-regulate their use of technology" says Scilla.
