Trying to find meaning in the face of grief is not easy. How often have you heard that you should focus on the positive? That kind of reaction is too common, and it can be unhealthy.

Connect with Jamie and share your story: Instagram │ Website │Twitter │ LinkedIn Episode Highlights [05:10] Emily's moveTHRU her Grief Journey After losing her husband to cancer, Emily didn't know what to do with her life moving forward. Emily's company, moveTHRU Grief, began as a group meeting in her spin studio. She created a safe space for her clients to feel their emotions without judgment. moveTHRU helps people acknowledge and deal with their grief by finding their identity and purpose. Once you find yourself again, you can go on to live your life to the fullest — even after tragedy. [09:00] Stepping Up Into Business It all began with Emily sharing her family's grief journey through a GoFundMe page. Without realizing it, she was already meaning-making by telling her stories online. Emily found that sharing her experience was therapeutic and positively impacted other people. Sharing her life provided a new meaning to what she was doing. A heart-centered business is about sharing the wisdom and knowledge you have to speed others on their way, but it takes a lot of vulnerability. [12:53] Are All Grief Stories Supposed To Be Worthwhile?  Not every share on your socials needs a profound takeaway. Think of your social media presence as an online diary connecting you to people. Emily connected with other young widows, a connection she didn't have before. Sharing her grief story was a mutually beneficial experience. Death and grief are complex topics to tackle. However, you don't need to judge or compare yourself to others; everyone's grief is valid. Emily: “My authentic experience of grief is just as valid as theirs. It's just that it's different. And, that's been a huge growth edge for me, in terms of learning to trust myself and not need that external validation, or permission to show up as I am.”   Emily is still balancing showing up as a marketer and a widow online.  There will be people online who will still support you even if your content evolves. You can still pursue what energizes you and not get pigeonholed by your niche. [20:27] Grief Teaches Us Emotional Mastery Love is beneath the pain. Allow yourself to feel the negative emotions and excavate them so that you get to the love. It takes time, but learn to trust your feelings. Ignoring your feelings won't make them disappear; it might intensify them instead. Be curious about your emotions and ask yourself, "Why am I feeling this way?"  It isn't about always being happy or being done with grief after some time. Don't let your mind make up stories about your feelings; trust your intuition. [25:29] Resilient Mindset in the Face of Grief or Overwhelm Businesses don't run perfectly. A resilient mindset helps us handle low points and bounce back to better times. You develop a "grief muscle" as you face grief. This muscle builds into a resilient mindset that you can use elsewhere, even in entrepreneurship. You can grieve for someone alive, like when going through a breakup. You can also grieve for painful events like losing your job or living through a pandemic. Jamie: “Talking about this in the grand scheme of things, for the fact that there's businesses or strategies, but we're never gonna grow without some type of emotional mastery. I honestly think grief is like a boot camp. It's a masterclass in emotions and how to handle that.” [32:13] How Ian's Legacy Shaped moveTHRU Ian, Emily's husband, inspired her to pursue business instead of going back to corporate. moveTHRU has become her way of honoring his life through its impact on others. Even if your loved one is gone, celebrate their existence by doing the things they did back when they were still alive. They become our reason to push through with life.  We can't control everything in life, but there's power in choosing what to do with it. [36:34] Surprising Part Of Being An Entrepreneur Emily never thought that business would be fun, but she gets to be creative and share her heart every day. There's no right or wrong way to run a business. Entrepreneurship is fun, but it's a challenge. Having a supportive community can help you overcome the obstacles in your entrepreneurial journey. Jamie: “I'm the happiest I've ever been doesn't mean that I don't have a crying moment from time to time. But, I'm the happiest I've ever been because I know I can work myself through that. I know that I have a support system, a community, all of the things I would ever need to get back on top.” [39:18] Mastermind versus Course Programs Emily likes Masterminds because they support people for the time it takes to improve. Masterminds foster slow transformation.  The community built within a Mastermind feels like a family, which Emily likes because sometimes entrepreneurship can feel lonely. It offers a community to fall back on. There's no judgment or need to explain much, because everyone's going through similar experiences. Emily's future mastermind will be about helping people turn their pain into a meaningful business. Just like her experience, but with the benefit of a community. [43:59] Dealing with People who Judge Your Limits Emily doesn't have a background in mental health, and she does sometimes fear that her life experience alone won't be enough.  When people judge you and start putting limits on what you can do, it says more about their limits than yours. Emily thinks she provides value through her experience as a widow, even without certifications. Knowledge from experience is powerful because you learn from the school of life. [45:50] The Meaning of Limitless Limitless is boundless and beyond time and space. Emily sees it through a grief lens on how love is an eternal connection. Death kills a person, not a relationship. About the Guest Emily Bingham founded moveTHRU Grief in March 2019 after the passing of her husband from cancer. She turned to physical exercise as a spin and barre instructor and as a former ballerina to deal with her grief. She developed the moveTHRU method, which uses the principles of Acceptance & Commitment Theory and the TEAR Model of Grief.

It's Friday! And it also happens to be JessK's birthday! TTJ(es) get a little silly and a lot deep in these 20 minutes as they discuss the article that came out in the Harvard Business Review entitled: 'That Discomfort You're Feeling Is Grief.' by Scott Berinato. As we sit in our 16th week of a global pandemic, we continue to call out on behalf of Black and Brown voices, and we face the reality of what the next school year will bring, JessB and JessK contemplate leaning in to the suck and self care when they feel like it is just too much. There is hope in our choices, our options, our conversation, they decide.

This episode hits differently after #mentalhealthawarenessweek as well as the passing of Mother's Day. Our guest is hairstylist and entrepreneur Taylor Hooge. She shares with us what she loves most about hair as well as some thwarted dreams surrounding motherhood that happened while launching her career. We get candid about grief, what it is and how we can move through it, and we celebrate her victories and return to art despite the obstacles her circumstances threw her way. I hope that this episode allows you to feel heard if you've ever experienced miscarriage, or any loss that left you feeling gutted. CuppaJen believes that staying positive does not have to be synonymous with ignoring pain, but rather we hope to empower you to rise and work through whatever challenges you may be facing, especially if you're an artist! Trigger warning ⚠️ Please note that this episode addresses potentially traumatic subject matter pertaining to miscarriage and emotional health. If this is unsafe for you for any reason, please love yourself first and skip this episode.

In our third episode of this season, we discuss the practice of solitude. Unlike isolation, solitude seeks to intentionally remove yourself from noise and distraction to place yourself in the presence of Jesus."In a noise-polluted world, it is even difficult to hear ourselves think, let alone try to be still and know God. Yet it seems essential for our spiritual life to seek some silence, no matter how busy we may be. Silence is not to be shunned as empty space, but to be befriended as fertile ground for intimacy with God." - Susan MutoQuestions?

We've all heard the phrase: “These are unprecedented times.” And it is true. What the world is facing during the Covid-19 pandemic is something that none of us have experienced before. We are all feeling it. Uncertainty is ubiquitous and caused by a myriad of factors. We may be concerned about the health of ourselves and our families, or about the financial impacts of our country coming to a halt. We might be attempting to work from home without access to childcare, leaving little time to care for ourselves, or we may be struggling with isolation while distancing ourselves from others. On March 21st, licensed professional counselor Holly Brooks shared the following on her practice's FaceBook page:“While the primary discussion revolves around physical health issues, my professional lens is set to think about people mentally and emotionally. This pandemic is going to be a marathon, but right now it feels like a sprint. Yes, we absolutely need to do everything possible right now to flatten the curve, but if we've flattened ourselves (burnt out, physically sick, emotional break down/panic attacks) then we cannot help ANYONE. Here are three steps that I feel are crucial to help you survive (and even thrive) in this pandemic marathon:1) Release the energy stored inside of you. This could come in the form of crying, a "thought download" aka journalling, dancing or exercise.2) Engage in some form of safety/soothing technique. Work on your inner dialogue. Combine it with some diaphragmatic breathing. Use one of the many meditation apps.3) Practice gratitude and VISUALIZE the FUTURE. Right now our minds are full of "what ifs" and literally worst case scenarios. Sure, we need to prepare and be smart about our preparation but make sure you're balancing it with positivity. The same goes for the media. Balance the bad news with the good.”For those unfamiliar with Brooks, she is a licensed professional counselor based in Anchorage, Alaska. Before starting her practice, Holly Brooks LLC, she was a U.S. Ski Team member and competed in the 2010 and 2014 Olympic Games. In this episode, Brooks unpacks the many sources of grief and anxiety that people are facing and expands on the steps she recommends to identify and manage the challenges of the times. She discusses the idea of naming and acknowledging feelings to help release energy around them and shares a practice she uses with her clients using painted rocks labeled with specific emotions. She leaves listeners with a meditation that can be used daily to soothe and ground themselves as we collectively settle in for the long haul. For further information about Brooks' practice or services, contact holly@hollybrooks.com or visit her FaceBook page. Resources mentioned:Brené Brown on “FFTs” in the Unlocking Us podcast“That Discomfort You're Feeling is Grief” by Scott Berinato, Harvard Business Review interview with David Kessler

While the COVID pandemic is spreading, I wanted to encourage us to manage what is within our control, including flattening the curve. This episode also includes reminders that now more than ever caring for yourself IS caring for others. We can accept reality while offering hope. You'll hear from Dr. Krista Olsen, a full time obstetrician and certified coach in our program.  She was COVID positive with fever, cough, and myalgia.  She and her family fully recovered and she is back to clinical care.   Her story serves as a reminder that this is actually the expected and most common course of this disease.  While we can learn to prepare for other scenarios, we must purposefully remind our brains that most who get sick will recover.  Listen in to hear how she managed her mind through the symptoms, diagnosis, and recovery.

The issue on most everyone’s mind right now is Coronavirus or Covid-19. We are witnessing a massive social and political transformation as we respond to the outbreak of the virus. Individuals have rapidly and radically changed their behaviors—from washing hands to self-isolating. Nations and local authorities are each taking their part to stop the spread of this disease. We see in real time how quickly and effectively we can adapt to a crisis. We also are discovering where we have failed to anticipate this crisis that is upon us.  The resilience and adaption we see happening all over the world, in our governments, and in our homes, have gotten some climate advocates reflecting on the preparations & rapid responses needed to address extreme weather events and other impacts from global warming. How is Coronavirus similar to climate change? How is it different? Host, Peterson Toscano convenes a panel of experts to consider these questions.  Dr. Natasha DeJarnett, the interim Associate Director of Program & Partnership Development at the National Environmental Health Association. In previous episodes she has helped us better understand public health issues and climate change. Whether she is discussing environmental racism and pollution, the illnesses afflicting coal miners in Appalachia, or promoting mental health in a time of Climate Change, Dr. DeJarnett provides well sourced and grounded information. Leonardo Martinez-Diaz, the director of the Sustainable Finance Center at the World Resources Institute. He leads the Center’s work to help drive finance into activities that promote sustainability and combat climate change. He served as Deputy Assistant Secretary for Energy and Environment at the US Department of the Treasury.  Alice. C Hill, a senior fellow for Climate Change Policy at the Council on Foreign Relations. Over 10 years ago she joined the Obama administration as senior legal counsel to Homeland Security director, Janet Politano. As a climate change resilience expert, She believes we possess the tools to respond to the impacts of climate change. She and Martinez-Diaz co-authored the book, Building a Resilient Tomorrow: How to Prepare fo the Coming Climate Disruption.  In discussing the connections they see regarding our preparations for and responses to protecting the public from Covid-19 and the impacts of climate change, they point out that governments do not properly plan for unexpected future events because of a collective failure of imagination. Martinez-Diaz explains the idea of availability bias, “the difficulty that we all have to imagine things we have never seen before. Therefore, we have a lot trouble planning and getting ready for things for which we have no living memory.” This was true of Coronavirus and is also true for climate change. In responding to crisis and suffering, they each point out the importance of having empathy towards those who are at risk, particularly the most vulnerable in society. This thoughtful and insightful conservation will help climate advocates better understand the work we seek to do in effectively communicating the urgency of climate change. Being able to tell stories to government officials and other stakeholders is a necessary skill to develop and hone.  Listen Now (Podbean Embed Code) The Art House Survivor Generations 2165 An original radio drama by the Climate Stew Players. Hear the story of Yuri Ivanovich Petrov.

When I started this podcast in January, I never expected to be talking about a pandemic. Let's face it, this situation has forced us to pivot in every area of our lives. Whether you are learning to work remotely, are managing children at home, worried about losing your job, we are being forced to think differently.In this episode, I explore how energy awareness shows up during a crisis. I also share my insights into an article from Harvard Business Review by Scott Berinato entitled "That Discomfort Your Feeling is Grief." His interview with David Kessler, author of "Finding Meaning: The Sixth Stage of Grief", powerfully describes collective grief and anticipatory grief and how this emotion is permeating our collective consciousness during this crisis.The grief process and energy awareness align in a powerful way to give meaning to the feelings that many of us are experiencing. This podcast provides listeners with key takeaways on how to find courage in a time of crisis.

Have you ever stacked up dominoes and knocked them down? In a way, we are all like a game of dominoes – we are all connected, and during this pandemic it can feel like we are all stacked up ready to fall. We have this sense that this is an inevitable situation and there is no way to stop it from affecting us. People respond to this feeling in several ways. Some mock it. Others are in denial or are experiencing grief. And for some it leads to feelings of resentment, bitterness and anger, looking for someone to blame for this pandemic, someone who caused the first domino to fall. Looking for someone to blame for what troubles us is not new. Think about Moses and Jesus – when things were going well the crowds followed them and praised them. But then as things got difficult, the crowds turned on Moses and on Jesus and blamed them for all their problems. In more recent past, we have done this too. We have a history of naming a virus by the people or ethnicity that we think caused it and it perpetuates hatred and violence. Scott Berinato, a senior editor at Harvard Business Review, wrote an article about how the discomfort we are feeling may be grief. It's an anticipatory grief and a sense of impending loss because we fear what we are going to lose. It's normal to feel these things. But there's another way to play dominoes. The original way. Dominoes weren't made for us to stack up and knock over. If you look at the face of every domino, they have numbers or blank spaces and it's all about connecting the dominoes. The way you win the game is you become imaginative about connecting – you study the dominoes and look for ways to connect, not ways to knock someone down. The way to play dominoes is figuring out how we connect for good. How we connect in love. In 1 John 4:19, scripture says we learn love through the character of God and then we discover we are capable of that kind of love because of God. So, where does the pandemic of hate come from? You may not think that you hate people. You may say, “I'm not blaming the virus on a particular culture or person. I didn't attack someone.” There's a famous teaching of Jesus that helps us understand hate as a spectrum. In Luke 14:26, Jesus says unless you hate your father, mother, brother, sister, your own self, you can't be my disciple. Why would Jesus say you have to hate people? The key that unlocks the meaning of hate is in Matthew 10:27, where Matthew writes about the same story. Here it says that unless you love me more than father, mother, sister, brother, even your own life you can't be my disciple. Why the difference? In both the Hebrew and Greek languages, the word hate is a spectrum. The Greek word for hate can be translated as “neglect by degree.” It is about the choosing of one and the not choosing of another. When Jesus says unless you “hate” others, he is saying you must choose me over all others. In that context, maybe we are haters. Maybe we all risk neglecting others by degree when we choose to think of ourselves first, instead of thinking about others. In a very pragmatic and practical sense, we can be haters. It's like seeing the stacked dominoes and feeling as though it is inevitable that we will be knocked down versus looking for imaginative, innovative ways to connect with one another. Deliverance and relief will come. In every pandemic this is true. Researchers, academics, leaders across the world are figuring out how to work together. God created the world for imaginative, innovative connection. And He is the connector. Think about the story of Esther. Her whole story turns on a virus – the virus of hate. In this case, there is a conspirator who is trying to influence the leaders to exterminate the Jews. Esther is called upon by her cousin Mordecai to do something. He says to her: “Who knows but for such a time as this you were made Queen.” But before Esther responded to the call, she and Mordecai had to be converted. Mordecai took Esther in when she's orphaned. She was a minority, a captive in a foreign land. Mordecai spent this vulnerable young girl's whole childhood teaching her how to protect herself. When circumstances shift, he realizes that his instruction was incomplete. He taught her how to protect herself, but he hadn't told her that advocating for others is also important. These two are not in conflict, protecting herself and others were both things she could commit to. Esther ultimately responds, “if I die, I die” and she sees that there is more to her life than her protecting herself. We now have an opportunity to show the world we know how the game is played and won. Just like Mordecai learns and teaches Esther. And just like the heroes of history: women and men willing to sacrifice themselves for others. To beat the coronavirus, we have to physically distance ourselves. But in reality, we can't win with social distancing – when close ourselves off from each other, we become lonely, fearful and depressed. That is why the World Health Organization recently said we need to shift our vocabulary from social distancing to physical distancing. This is more than semantics. We know we need each other. We still need to be social, but during this time we have to physically distance ourselves. Our willingness to socially distance ourselves is what leads to fear and hate, it's the root of racism, sexism, every ism. And it didn't begin with technology. It started when sin entered the garden of Eden. Jesus came into the world, he closed the distance between us, to show us a different way. For those who stacked up the dominoes in their favor, he disrupted everything. And for the vulnerable, outcast and hurting, for those who needed connection, Jesus restored them. There's two ways to play dominoes: one of them kills us, and the other revives us. Let's think connection in order to cure the pandemic of hate. Questions: Go to LoveFirst.org to submit a question. The first three people to submit a question will get a free copy of Love First: Ending Hate Before It's Too Late. Why do some people deny the impact of the coronavirus and do not take it seriously? Three possible answers: Some people lack information or have misinformation. There are some people who make a living off of creating strife and stirring up controversy. And some are grieving – and one of the stages of grief is denial. (Refer to the HBR article) Why do some people panic, and some people don't? What do I do if I meet someone who is panicking? Panic can be rooted in previous trauma, family systems, implicit memory. And there are a lot of reasons why someone panics or doesn't panic. The most important thing we can do is meet people where they are. Our Family minister and executive director of the Genesis counseling center, Dr. Major Boglin, recommends that when people are panicked or concerned, we should meet them in their pain. Don't scold them, judge them for panicking or dismiss their concerns. Instead, create a place of safe connection. Assure them of your concern and connection and let them share with you. Let them talk about their concerns. As they feel more comfortable, safe and calm, they likely will be able to move out of fear and into a problem-solving mindset.

This month, we’re joined by Scott Berinato, Senior Editor at Harvard Business Review and author of both Good Charts (2016) and The Good Charts Workbook (2019). We broaden our understanding of data visualization to include other types of information design, learn best practices for making better charts, and discuss what our visualization tools might do to facilitate good design.

In this episode, I want to discuss how this production changed the focus of the play, away from the madness of the king to the actions of the three daughters.  Perhaps it was my perception of the play or perhaps it was the director’s intention but the focus in the first half of the play was clearly on the daughters and their families. Both Goneril and Regan played much more prominent roles throughout the first scene and their joint liaisons with Edmund, later the Earl of Gloucester, were key components of this production. Moreover, their husbands, the Duke of Cornwall and the Duke of Albany, also played prominent roles. The Duke of Cornwall, for instance his role in this production was more than the traditional highlight for him, which is the blinding of the original Earl of Gloucester. (Even in this production it still elicited gasps from the audience.) Even after the intermission, where some of the most powerful scenes in all of Shakespeare playout, including the blinded Earl of Gloucester and the mad Lear wandering the moor, this production held a distinct focus on Lear’s daughters and their families, adding in the complexity of Edmund, the new Earl of Gloucester, having an affair with Goneril while secretly pledged to wed Regan.  In the most recent Harvard Business Review (HBR), Scott Berinato writes, in an article entitled “Data Science and the Art of Persuasion”, that most companies are not getting the value from data science initiatives and prescribes ways to remedy this phenomenon. Last year, at Compliance Week 2018, Hui Chen said on a panel that she expected the compliance team of the not-so-distant future would have a data scientist. As with most of her pronouncements, she was way ahead of the crowd.  You must start with the premise that most CCOs and compliance professionals are legally trained, usually without any data analytics classes in law schools still operating under the Socratic Method. Even if a stat class is thrown in somewhere along the way in undergrad, grad school or even through some business school outreach to law students, that does not begin to prepare someone to understand the insights available through advanced data analytics. The key is to build a better data science operation. There are four suggestions, with the over-arching theme of defining the talents you need to understand and communicate the data. 1.     The unpacking of data and creation of insights is a skill. 2.     Data wrangling.3.     Expertise.4.     How to communicate the information.  Learn more about your ad choices.

My guest this week is Scott Berinato, author of Good Charts: The HBR Guide to Making Smarter, More Persuasive Data Visualizations, and Senior Editor at Harvard Business Review. In this interview we discuss bridging the world of data science and the art of data visualization. Scott and I focus on how we make good use of Data Visualization skills that I believe are critical for CIOs to have. Listen to the interview to learn more on how to be a better data visualization guy and methods of being a good data storyteller. Major Take-Aways From This Episode: Why to avoid “click+vis” The importance of incorporating prototyping, sketching, and charting your data visualizations The key to presenting data is not the data or the perfect design, it is the design thinking process Automatic output of data tools is not enough to convey your ideas How to overcome obstacles with conveying ideas + concepts; How to avoid being intimidated Tools Landscape: plot.ly and exploratory The idea of “the power of a beautiful constraint” What you barely need is data; you need to know what the data is telling you (@23:00) When are you putting yourself at a disadvantage with DOT plots It isn’t the slide quota that is important for your presentation, it is the amount of information on a slide that is important Best Methods for Visual Storytelling: Maximum one or two ideas per slide Wrong Metric: The number of slides Correct Metric: Ideas per visual field/ slide About Scott Berinato Scott Berinato is the author of Good Charts: The HBR Guide to Making Smarter, More Persuasive Data Visualizations.
