Podcasts about Shalini

“All of this together shaped how I began to think about mind, not as something to be mastered, but as a landscape of the unspoken whether it was ghosts or griefs or desires that were hard to relinquish. I saw that the ghost was not always an ‘other'. It was often intimate, tied to lost ones, sometimes to unmet desires, to unbearable longings, but in some ways possession was an attempt to keep close what was slipping away. The ghost doesn't just haunt, it feels as if it wants something, and we just have to learn to develop ears to listen to what it wants.”  Episode Description: We acknowledge Loewald's concept of 'ghosts becoming ancestors' and consider the similarities and differences with those who hold 'ghosts' to be literal. Shalini shares with us her journey to open herself to the uncertainty and ambiguity of these externalized entities while appreciating both their cultural and intrapsychic sources. We learn of her family's involvement with exorcisms, especially her grandmother's "fearless warmth" and "empathy that saw beyond the terror of the ghosts." She considers the many facets of mind that are represented by 'ghosts' and the essential value of approaching them as guides to the "landscape of the unspoken." Shalini describes a long term engagement that she had with an individual who "taught me to receive the inchoate and horrific...to contain the brokenness and not interpret it away.. and to appreciate the glimpses of beauty in the most grotesque parts of self."   Our Guest: Shalini Masih, a psychoanalytic psychotherapist and writer, grew up in India amidst priests and healers, witnessing spirit possession and exorcism. Now based in Worcestershire, UK, she holds a Master's degree in Psychoanalytic Studies from Tavistock & Portman, London, and a PhD from the University of Delhi. Mentored by psychoanalysts Michael Eigen and Sudhir Kakar, she's an award-winning scholar of the American Psychological Association. She has taught and supervised psychoanalytic psychotherapists in Ambedkar University, Delhi and in Birkbeck, University of London. Her acclaimed paper, 'Devil! Sing me the Blues', was nominated for Gradiva Awards in 2020.

Anna Brannon had to deal with a tornado to get her first major production over the finish line (I'll show myself out later). She was great to chat with as the challenges the crew faced were tough but they managed to get everything done and we're grateful to show it as part of the film fest. This week continues to fly by and we're having so much featuring all of these awesome filmmakers! Missouri isn't a place most people think of when they think of ultra running. But it's here on the rolling hills and chunky karst terrain where race director Shalini Bhajjan has built Terrain Trail Runners, a community of long distance ultra trail runners. On April 15th, 2023, three members of this community set out to complete Shalini's toughest race and run 100 miles through the Ozark Foothills in Wildwood, MO. What started out as a beautiful day quickly turned into a weather nightmare when a tornado touched down 10 minutes from where the race was being hosted. Tough calls were made and limits were tested, ending in a finish that no one saw coming.Make sure to get your tickets at trailfilmfest.com so you don't miss out!Last episode:CTR presents the Trail Running Film FestivalWe're incredibly excited to be hosting the Trail Running Film Festival once more.

In today's interconnected yet paradoxically divided world, the path to understanding each other requires more than just good intentions. To truly connect and heal, we need something more: the cultivation of a deeper understanding. The path forward isn't about eliminating differences—it's about building bridges of understanding across them. In this gentle yet powerful meditation with Shalini Bahl, we experience how we are all shaped by our experiences, fears, and hopes. Deep understanding is like diving below the illuminated surface to deeper waters.  By understanding both what floats on the surface and what lies in the depths, we can begin to shift our habitual patterns and make choices that arise from genuine wisdom rather than reactive impulses.

To build your business, so it is ready to sell, without the frustration and overwhelm, Download David's Free Guide '3 reasons you will never sell your business and how to fix it FAST!  https://businessbreakthrough.live/3reasons/3-reasons  KEY TAKEAWAYS People no longer just believe the marketing; they research whether firms live by the principles they expound. Gen Z will soon be the largest consumer group - they really care about brand values. Living up to brand values is an ongoing endeavour, you will always be tweaking what you do. Even good brands can make mistakes or be tempted to transgress. Be transparent. Never use the say-nothing approach. When something goes wrong, immediately acknowledge the pain. Putting profit before all else never works e.g. thinking the profit you will make will more than cover having to pay compensation. By doing the right thing Tylenol increased sales by 40%. Other examples are shared. Founding your business on strong principles and following them energises your business. They fuel you and push you to always do better. When you and your team strive to work in line with your principles the probability of brand transgressions minimises. Company culture decides whether your employees will follow brand values.   BEST MOMENTS “We have found that if you are transparent, treat lives with dignity and do the right thing, you cannot fail to make a profit.” “Both positive and negative outcomes lead back to leadership.” “When a brand transgresses the news spreads at lightning speed.” “When these are the principles that are the wind behind your wings .. the probability of brand transgressions minimizes.” “Acknowledge the pain and the hurt of the victims right away.” “Don´t shy away from your mistakes.” RESOURCES https://www.brandtransgressions.com Book - https://www.amazon.com/Managing-Brand-Transgressions-Principles-Transform/dp/150152108X Volkswagen scandal - https://www.bbc.com/news/business-34324772 Tylenol - https://univpgri-palembang.ac.id/case_study/tylenol-scandal-and-crisis-management ABOUT THE HOST David Roberts is a highly regarded CEO, mentor, and investor with 30 years of experience across multiple sectors.

**5 MINUTES OF PEACE** | **Reading by Shalini** | Created by The Peace Room, BoiseIn this peaceful episode, Shalini, a technology professional and holistic wellness coach, reads *Your Journey Inward* by Swami Rama, from the book *Soul to Soul*, compiled by John Mundell. This insightful poem reminds us that true self-discovery happens through meditation—a journey beyond thoughts and emotions, where we cast aside labels and opinions imposed by others. Meditation, Swami Rama explains, allows us to transcend the world of thought, behavior, and emotion, leading to a transformation within ourselves. The journey to truth, as the poem beautifully puts it, is "from the alone to the alone." This inward journey doesn't change the universe—it changes you.Shalini shares her vision of empowering individuals through holistic wellness, weaving together global wisdom on meditation, self-care, and healing.

Today Kim and Wesley welcome Shalini Shybut. In recent years, non-profit organizations have worked very hard to hire leaders of color who reflect the communities they serve.  Kim and Wesley discuss with Shalini the additional challenges and pressures faced by leaders of color at non-profit organizations, especially the "entitlement gap".  Why do these leaders sometimes struggle to thrive?  What can be done to help them succeed?Link to Shalani's essay where she talks about her learnings in more detail.About Shalini Shybut: Shalini is an executive coach, consultant and entrepreneur in Washington DC with two decades of expertise in education, nonprofits and the private sector. Shalini has sat in a variety of seats, starting her career as a teacher in New York City and moving on to serve as a consultant to public and private (Fortune 500) organizations, a school system leader in Washington DC, a board member at multiple nonprofits, and, most recently, a philanthropist at DC's largest education funding organization.

For this episode, David provides you with excerpts of a full interview he has recorded with Dr Shalini Jain and Dr Shailendra Jain. Both of whom are renowned business professors and global thought leaders in marketing and brand management. They discuss what happens when brands transgress and how to get the balance between your personal and business brand right. To explore how to get unstuck on your mission, put your purpose into practice and convert your ideas into impact book a discovery call with David here https://calendly.com/david-peoplewithpurpose/30min KEY TAKEAWAYS The values of your business are a big part of your brand. If you want to create a strong brand be transparent about your values and stand by them.  When you act outside of your stated values, people notice, and it damages your brand. If you want to attract decent people you need to be very clear about what you stand for and what you don´t. In some companies employees are pressuring their employers to do more for the environment. Many companies are so driven by helping the environment that they are doing things that make it harder for them to compete in the market. Patagonia is an example of this.  Some companies do things they know are wrong or illegal because they can make more money. Yet, studies show that it's the honest, ethical companies that make higher profits over the long term. BEST MOMENTS “The book talks about large corporations, but an entrepreneur can get inspired by these organizations and start working on creating a blueprint.” “If you start as an organization with these principles firm in mind … the principles are the wind behind your wings,” “We refer to transgressions as violations of expectations that stakeholders have of companies.” EPISODE RESOURCES Do you want free coaching with David?

She now serves as the Executive Director of Rice's Synthetic Biology Institute, where she spearheads cutting-edge research, fosters interdisciplinary collaboration, and drives the institute's mission to unlock synthetic biology's transformative potential.Host Maya Pomroy '22 speaks with Shalini about her inspiring journey from growing up in Allahabad, India, to leading translational cancer research at MD Anderson Cancer Center in Houston. Shalini reflects on how her early experiences with infectious diseases and her education, from New Delhi to Stony Brook University, shaped her passion for synthetic biology. She also shares her thoughts on the field's potential to revolutionize science and the critical role of integrating business strategy into scientific innovation.Episode Guide:02:39 Early Life and Education04:13 Challenges and Adventures in the US07:08 Groundbreaking Research and Discoveries10:00 Transition to Translational Research14:23 Journey to MD Anderson and Houston17:17 Why Pursue an MBA Now?27:16 Synthetic Biology: The Next Scientific Revolution37:48 Future Aspirations and ConclusionOwl Have You Know is a production of Rice Business and is produced by University FM.Episode Quotes:How a serendipitous opportunity brought Shalini to Houston14:09: [Maya Pomroy] So what brought you to Houston? Was it MD Anderson that brought you to Houston?14:35: [Shalini Yadav] When I got an opportunity, again grateful to the PCF Young Investigator Award that I got, this network of people that I met, and through that, I was able to connect with Dr. Allison, and it, again, serendipitously, happened that he, looking at my expertise and things that I had done, said, “Would you like to do this work, which is a lot of scientific management and administrative?” [15:06] I thought, okay, as long as I found it interesting and exciting, because, again, I was handling multiple stakeholders and trying to work with multiple pharmaceutical companies, different departments, different kinds of experts, working together with all of them to handle a scientific problem, which will actually help to learn something new. So that was very satisfying to do that.How an MBA gave Shalini a new perspective on impact32:42: I would like to say that scientists in general are passionate about what they do. It's the leap that you have to take that overcome, and your perspective changes after MBA. I never had this perspective. The way I understand things now are completely different than I would have done two years back. 33:18: So if community matters to you and if you're bothered by things around you, which you want to change and you think with this you cannot. I think taking that leap where you will learn things, which I think basically as a scientist, our training as graduate students, or even medical studies, we are taught to be very focused. So having to come out of that shell and embrace this bigger picture and having the strength to think about what impact I can have because if you understand both sides of it, what you can think of achieving, you won't get it if you are just on one side of things. The effect of bridging the gap between clinical and translational research and basic research11:35: When you bring diverse expertise together, the solutions that come out have way more value and are more impactful than what you can achieve alone. So bridging this gap was not something that I was looking for, but I serendipitously got into a position where I just did what was needed, which gave me a very different perspective of what scientific research can achieve in terms of, if you understand the problems which people are actually facing, then your solutions can be tailored, or you can design proposals to address those problems.Show Links: TranscriptGuest Profiles:Shalini Yadav | LinkedInRice Synthetic Biology Institute MD Anderson Cancer CenterYoung Investigator Awards | Prostate Cancer FoundationWorld Health Organization Catch our previous episode with Jillian Lebovitz Fink: "A Former Fourth-Grade Teacher Is Working to Ease Your Migraines."

Episode #264: Shalini Sri Perumal delves into her expertise in community-based healthcare, particularly focusing on the integration of indigenous and traditional medicine among Burmese migrant women in Thailand. Shalini's professional journey includes significant work with the Mae Tao Clinic on the Thai-Burma border, an important healthcare facility founded by Dr. Cynthia Maung. The clinic has expanded over the years, offering a wide range of services including reproductive health, dental care, and maternal care, despite facing challenges such as limited funding and the discrimination that Burmese migrants often encounter.Shalini emphasizes the critical role of traditional medicine in preserving cultural identity and providing accessible healthcare to marginalized communities. While she acknowledges that not all traditional practices are safe, she advocates for a collaborative approach that blends community-based methods with Western medicine. This approach not only respects indigenous practices but also seeks to validate them through scientific research. She underscores the impact of colonialism in severing connections to traditional knowledge and stresses the importance of restoring these connections, particularly through the inclusion of indigenous voices in healthcare discussions.In addition to discussing healthcare, Shalini sheds light on the broader situation of Burmese migrants in Thailand. There, particularly Karen and other ethnic minorities face significant discrimination from the Thai government. She also touches on the plight of Burmese refugees in India, particularly in Mizoram and New Delhi. There, refugees struggle with the lack of legal recognition and access to basic services, exacerbated by India's non-signatory status to the Refugee Convention and recent discriminatory policies. Despite these challenges, Shalini remains hopeful about the potential for advocacy and collective action among ethnic communities to improve their situation both in Thailand and India.
