How do we create learning environments that genuinely heal and nurture every child? In this episode of SELinEDU, we welcome Shannon Hawkins, founder and CEO of Leading A(head) Collaborative, to share her profound insights on transforming education through social and emotional learning (SEL). We start with reflections on the soothing power of water and the surprising weather, setting a serene mood for our discussion. Shannon's journey, inspired by her grandmother's story of resilience in Jamaica, reveals the profound importance of building healing-centered communities to support historically marginalized groups and combat toxic stress.We explore the vital partnership between schools and families in enriching children's education. Shannon highlights the crucial need for schools to provide platforms where families can share their valuable experiences and cultural strengths. With the concept of "Freedom Dreams," we envision how visionary thinking can revolutionize the educational landscape, especially in these challenging times marked by economic pressures and the impacts of multiple pandemics. This conversation underscores the importance of acknowledging and utilizing the cultural and linguistic assets that families contribute to the educational ecosystem and the necessity of collaboration.Finally, we delve into the critical role of emotionally responsive adults in children's healing process. Shannon references impactful work, including "The Boy Who Was Raised as a Dog" and insights from Dr. Barbara Sorrels, to illustrate how educators and caregivers can create nurturing environments. We discuss Leading A(head) Collaborative's successful after-school programs that educate parents and teachers on toxic stress, trauma, and SEL, emphasizing the transformative power of compassion and empathy in schools. Reflecting on the importance of collective well-being and collaboration, we celebrate the communal spirit toward creating supportive and transformative educational spaces for every student.EPISODE RESOURCES: Connect with Shannon via her website, LinkedIn, Instagram, Facebook, The Four Pivots: Reimagining Justice, Reimagining Ourselves by Shawn Ginwright, Ph.DDaring Greatly by Brene Brown, Ph.D., MSWFreedom Dreams by Robin D.G.

On this episode I share some of my reflections on Shawn A Ginwright's book The Four Pivots: Reimagining Justice, Reimagining Ourselves. I talk about the first pivot, which is from lens to mirror. The way Shawn talks about this pivot speaks directly to how I have come to understand the proximity process. My reflections are related to how I understand this pivot, how I have seen this pivot play out in my own work, and how it is now informing my work at Proximity Design Studio. I also share some of my current work with past guest Keith Howard and how we have been applying the lens to mirror pivot in his role as the CEO of Circle of Care in Oklahoma. I end the episode with ideas of how we can all work on making our own lens to mirror pivot.

Shawn Ginwright is a leading innovator and scholar of African American youth, youth activism, and youth development. He currently holds the title of Professor of Education in the Africana Studies Department at San Francisco State University, and starting this fall, will join Jal as a Professor of Practice at the Harvard Graduate School of Education. Highlights from their conversation include: a little back story about the origin of the book that involves wine and a black table; the importance of looking inward and dealing with inner turmoil in order to work successfully on social problems; the value of balance and clarity and how Rod, Jal, and Shawn all found their own versions of it; why a lack of true equilibrium among activists can lead to strained relationships, burn out, and failure; why empathy and healing need to be core to any transformational movement; a powerful reaction to yet another wave of school shootings in the U.S.; and a lightning round that puts the quality of east coast Mexican food to the test! Check out Shawn's book: The Four Pivots: Reimagining Justice, Reimagining OurselvesQuestions?

Rev. Dr. Andriette welcomes Dr. Shawn Ginwright, Ph.D., author of The Four Pivots: Reimagining Justice, Reimagining Ourselves.

In his new book, The Four Pivots: Reimagining Justice, Reimagining Ourselves, Dr. Shawn A. Ginwright provides what he describes as a “roadmap” for people to embody the change they want to see in society. He encourages readers to consider the transformative power of reflection, of considering not only what we do but who we want to be as individuals. That means grappling with trauma, harm and inequality as a critical step toward healing, well-being and ultimately flourishing. In school settings, this means that teachers have to be well enough and self-aware enough themselves to foster the well-being and thriving of the young people they are educating. More on Dr. Ginwright. He is a Professor of Education in the Africana Studies Department and Senior Research Associate at San Francisco State University. He is the Founder and CEO of Flourish Agenda, Inc., a national nonprofit consulting firm which designs strategies for healing and engaging youth of color and adult allies in their schools and communities. From 2018 to 2021, Dr. Ginwright served as Chairman of the Board for The California Endowment. In addition to The Four Pivots, he has written the books Black in School, Hope and Healing in Urban Education and Black Youth Rising. For his outstanding research and work with urban youth, Shawn Ginwright earned a Fulbright Senior Specialist Award from the U.S. State Department.

Dr. Andriette harkens us to the book, The Four Pivots, in which author Dr. Shawn Ginwright says, "Dancing between accountability and grace is an art form. Without grace, accountability becomes social confinement, and without accountability, grace can become sentimental surrender." Heart and Soul celebrates the fact that this wise assessment is wholly supported by scripture and is evidence of Divine Wisdom in action!

There's no question about it: Imagination truly is one of the most revolutionary ideas available to us. That's why mirror work, works! Through the power of our imagination, mirror work helps us reimagine ourselves (to ourselves), thereby illuminating our true nature as Divine Beings. Rev. Dr. Andriette explores this spiritual dynamic as we continue our exploration of Dr. Shawn Ginwright's amazing book, The Four Pivots. This is the DEEP END of the spiritual pool, ya'll.

In this episode, host Chris Nguon taps in with Dr. Shawn Ginwright, who recently released his latest book called The Four Pivots: Reimaging Justice, Reimaging Ourselves. The beautiful conversation centers on the journey of the book itself since its release, Shawn's conversation with people all over the country about their reflections, learnings, and piqued ideas of the book, and new ideas that have popped up. Chris and Shawn also dive into the concept of the “cerebral” practitioner and demystify what all that even means. And of course, it wouldn't be a podcast with Shawn with some small talk about boating, sailing, and the healing of the water as well.

Today's topic is a continuation of the discussion about rest from the July Spirit Messages. I felt like I needed to do a brief introduction today for my new Spirit School listeners! I'm Danielle Searancke, also known as the Squamish Medium. I am a Swampy Cree First Nations Indigenous woman, living in the Cosalish mountain towns of Squamish, British Columbia with my two kids and my incredibly skeptical and supportive husband.   I have been developing in mediumship since 2013 and went public with my practice in 2017. I launched and initiated Spirit School, which is this podcast, an online school, and now a community, in 2018. I went full-time into my practice three weeks before the pandemic, in 2020. I didn't realize until about four years into my development how lonely I felt on my development path. So, that was why I started Spirit School, the podcast. It's still my intention to be raw, real, and authentic with you, as you witness me grow into an entrepreneur and an international medium through the time capsule of this podcast.    Until last week, my paid membership was the only way to be in community with me. I know that free Facebook groups bring people to your paid offerings, but they never sat right with me. Last year, my students started asking for a community away from Facebook, and it felt like it was time. My team and I have spent over 100 hours building a platform off of social media.    I have more people listening to the podcast than on my social media platforms, so the new platform includes a free space for me to finally connect with my Spirit School listeners! We just completed a 5-Day live Spirit Guide Challenge last week to strengthen our connection to our guides. You can access the replays when you join using the links below!  

Greetings Glocal Citizens! This week on the podcast I have the first of a handful of interviews that came about in a back to the future-esque way. This spring, the Stanford National Black Alumni Association (https://www.stanfordblackalumni.org) biennale summit took place in Washington, D.C. and I organized my spring trip back to the U.S. around reconnecting with my fellow friends and alum and sharing my insights as a Glocal Citizen on a panel entitled, "Africa: Bridging the Diasporic Divide." A propos, my guest, Detroit native, Dereca Blackmon has career-wide experience bridging divides. As Co-Founder and President of the Inclusion Design Group (https://inclusiondesign.com), she is also head trainer and responsible for the creation of the dynamic set of workshops and follow-up activities used by her team. Her experiential training models cut through “diversity fatigue” and allow participants to engage in deep, authentic, and meaningful dialogues. Among her prior positions, she served as the Assistant Vice Provost, Associate Dean and Director of the Diversity and First-Generation Office at Stanford University where she introduced groundbreaking work on authentic engagement, intergroup dialogue, and unconscious bias to over 30,000 students, staff, faculty and alumni. She also taught several courses at Stanford including Intergroup Communication with renowned cultural psychologist Hazel Markus (https://web.stanford.edu/~hazelm/) Reverend Deborah L. Johnson (https://deborahljohnson.org). For over 25 years, Dereca has consulted with a wide variety of corporate, educational, nonprofit, and community-based groups to facilitate “uncommon conversations” on issues of race, gender, class, and social justice. I hope this two part conversation brings you closer to understanding and embodying your own inclusion mindset.

Shawn Ginwright What if we've been approaching this whole idea of justice and have left out a critical piece? What if our very approach is actually helping cement the damage that bias and systemic inequity have caused?  We all know that there is much healing that has to happen if we're going to be the equitable society that we envision. The question is how do we get from here to there? What are the tools we need, the way of thinking that will help move us along? Professor Shawn Ginwright, in his new book The Four Pivots: Reimagining Justice, Reimagining Ourselves, argues that we are failing to use all the tools of social change that are available to us. And, he says, those tools begin close in, with us as both as individuals and in our close familial and community relationships.  This conversation deepened my understanding of what it's going to take for us all to get free. I hope it does the same for you. About Shawn: Shawn Ginwright, PhD is one of the nation's leading innovators, provocateurs, and thought leaders on African American youth, youth activism, and youth development. He's the founder and CEO of Flourish Agenda Incorporated, a national nonprofit consulting firm that design strategies to unlock the power of healing and engage youth of color and adult allies in transforming their schools and communities. He is Professor of Education in the Africana Studies department and Senior Research Associate at San Francisco State University. He is the author of The Four Pivots: Reimagining Justice, Reimagining Ourselves. For a written transcript of this conversation click here. Three Actions: 1. At the end of each day map your emotional self. What were the emotions that you experienced that day. This, over time, allows us to map who we are, what our life is like, and whether we are showing up in the world in the ways we would like. 2. Ask, "Where am I going?" This is a question about who we want to become and where you (and your family and larger community) are going. This helps develop the habit of future thinking for yourself, your family, community, and society. 3. Practice these things in community. We in the West are taught to be individualistic but true healing happens in community. Connect with Shawn: On his Website Credits: Harmonica music courtesy of a friend

We are so honored to share this conversation with Dr. Shawn Ginwright (he/him), in celebration of his new book, The Four Pivots : Reimagining Justice, Reimagining Ourselves. Shawn is an author, professor, and an activist who brings a unique lens to the conversation about social change, dismantling oppression, and cultivating new ways of being. Shawn's book, which we discuss in detail in this episode, is one of possibility, inviting us into the practice of being accountable to ourselves while we work together to co-create a new way of being.Tune in to hear us talk about...- Shawn's journey of working with youth and the lessons he's learned along the way through creating a summer camp, an organization, and a body of research challenging conventional methods and thoughts around self-empowerment for kids- Shawn's three P's—Prevention, Pathology, and Problem, and what brought him into re-imagining rather than focusing mostly on pathologizing and problem-solving- the experience of losing dear friends who were “soldiers for justice,” and how Shawn wants to facilitate “gardeners for justice”- the importance of recognizing the missing ingredient in our social justice activism—accountability to ourselves, and the need for us to reflect on and understand the consequences of oppression and suffering in our own lives- Shawn's Four Pivots: from lens to mirror, from transactional to transformative relationships (think: the power of vulnerability), from problem to possibility, and from hustle to flow …and more!Connect with Dr. Shawn Ginwright:Shawn's websiteShawn's new book, The Four Pivots : Reimagining Justice, Reimagining OurselvesPeople and organizations mentioned in this episode:adrienne maree brownPatrisse Cullors' new book, Abolitionists Handbook 12 Steps to Changing Yourself & the Worldour previous episode with Kelley Nicole PalmerYou can support this podcast by joining us on Patreon!

In his brave new book, The Four Pivots: Reimagining Justice, Reimagining Ourselves, Shawn Ginwright asks a simple but profound question, “Can we heal the world without healing ourselves?” I've always believed the answer is no, but I've never seen anyone propose a more daring solution than what's in this book and conversation. There is so much wisdom in these four pivots. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

In this episode, host Chris Nguon dives into the foundational elements of CARMA. Why is this podcast called the CARMA Chronicles? Where did the title originate? What does it stand for? And why is CARMA (C.A.R.M.A.) significant in healing work? We'll also share two clips from Dr. Shawn Ginwright, including a poignant story about his experience working in a prison that encapsulates how Healing Centered Engagement can show up in the most unexpected of places.

Of the many inequities brought to light by COVID-19, the disparities that BIPOC students face in the American education system have proven to be the most complex. Creating an inclusive and anti-racist educational experience that helps students achieve their full potential is made even more difficult in the virtual classroom. To provide their expertise on equitable education, four education leaders will speak at INFORUM on the challenges and opportunities offered by online schooling. They are Dr. Shawn Ginwright, professor of Africana Studies at San Francisco State University; Dr. Kyla Johnson-Trammel, superintendent of the Oakland Unified School District; Dr. Natalee Kēhaulani Bauer, assistant adjunct professor of race, gender and sexuality studies at Mills College; and moderator Dr. Allison Briscoe-Smith, director of diversity, equity and inclusion at the Wright Institute Clinical Program. Join three Bay Area education experts at INFORUM and with the Club’s education initiative, Creating Citizens, to learn more about teachers’ vital role in the construction of an anti-racist future. NOTES This conversation is presented in partnership with Generation Thrive, the Golden State Warriors' new game-changing, a first-of-its-kind nonprofit hub that supports the effectiveness of Bay Area academic-focused nonprofits and schools through education and wellness support.

Creating an inclusive and anti-racist educational experience that helps students achieve their full potential is made even more difficult in the virtual classroom. To provide their expertise on equitable education, four education leaders will speak at INFORUM on the challenges and opportunities offered by online schooling. They are Dr. Shawn Ginwright, professor of Africana Studies at San Francisco State University; Dr. Kyla Johnson-Trammel, superintendent of the Oakland Unified School District; Dr. Natalee Kēhaulani Bauer, assistant adjunct professor of race, gender and sexuality studies at Mills College; and moderator Dr. Allison Briscoe-Smith, director of diversity, equity and inclusion at the Wright Institute Clinical Program. Join three Bay Area education experts at INFORUM and with the Club's education initiative, Creating Citizens, to learn more about teachers' vital role in the construction of an anti-racist future. NOTES This conversation is presented in partnership with Generation Thrive, the Golden State Warriors' new game-changing, a first-of-its-kind nonprofit hub that supports the effectiveness of Bay Area academic-focused nonprofits and schools through education and wellness support.

Learn more at shawnginwright.com. Healing Centered Engagement Shawn speaks about his early work as an educator and sociologist working with young men raised in challenging urban environments. He shares how working with these young men inspired him to move away from the trauma-informed method of care that he was trained in. Gravitating to an approach that focuses on engaging the full individual – not just a piece of them. Francesca and Shawn explore the importance of this paradigm shift from trauma-informed care to healing-centered engagement. “What does it mean to provide young men with an opportunity to be fully human, even in the context of their trauma? I don’t think we should abandon trauma-informed care, it is just an incomplete process.” – Shawn Ginwright Building Opportunities (17:40) How do Shawn’s background and history factor into his approach as an activist? Shawn shares how the traumas and opportunities that he experienced early in life has informed the direction of his work. Hope and Healing (24:00) Francesca and Shawn discuss the impact that self-work and regulation have on those who hold roles as leaders, caregivers, and educators. Shawn talks about his own practice and looks at how a personal practice allows for a deeper connection between individuals fulfilling leadership roles and those that they serve. “There is a lack of contemplative spaces and opportunities for adults who are working with young people, particularly in schools. Teachers, principals, educational leaders simply do not have the space to sit and reflect and be centered.” – Shawn Ginwright http://www.shawnginwright.com/ https://flourishagenda.com/our-team/#our-staff
