Today's poem is Us by Zaffar Kunial. The Slowdown is your daily poetry ritual. In this episode, Major writes… “Since moving to the quaint village of Rochester, I come to expect visible signs of welcome everywhere. What matters in life is that space between us, formulated by philosopher Martin Buber as I-Thou. It's a sacred space of shared existence where we feel each other's uniqueness and feel our common humanity. Today's attentive poem fosters a consciousness in which we view our lives as more in relation to each other, as close as two small letters.” Celebrate the power of poems with a gift to The Slowdown today.

The Chinese economy is in trouble. Exports, manufacturing output, and investment are all down. Unemployment, particularly among young people is up. Provincial debt is now at a record $8 trillion while a burgeoning property crisis has eliminated a once reliable source of revenue for local governments.The financial difficulties that China is now experiencing have direct implications on dozens, if not hundreds of developing countries around the world that have come to rely on Chinese demand to bolster their own economies.Lizzi Li, an economist and reporter at the Chinese language television network Wall Street TV, joins Eric & Cobus from New York to discuss what's behind the economic slowdown in China and why it's critical that policymakers and other stakeholders in the Global South learn quickly how to adapt to the new economic realities that are taking shape.JOIN THE DISCUSSION:X: @ChinaGSProject| @stadenesque | @eric_olander | @wstv_lizziFacebook: www.facebook.com/ChinaAfricaProjectYouTube: www.youtube.com/@ChinaGlobalSouthFOLLOW CAP IN FRENCH AND ARABIC:Français: www.projetafriquechine.com | @AfrikChineعربي: www.akhbaralsin-africia.com | @AkhbarAlSinAfrJOIN US ON PATREON!Become a CAP Patreon member and get all sorts of cool stuff, including our Week in Review report, an invitation to join monthly Zoom calls with Eric & Cobus, and even an awesome new CAP Podcast mug!www.patreon.com/chinaglobalsouthSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
Today's poem is Ode to Purple Summer by Sabrina Benaim. The Slowdown is your daily poetry ritual. In this episode, Major writes… “For me, the pendulum swing that is emotional health deprives me of the world's splendor. The hummingbird flitting about the garden is no longer enchanting to me, a bite of a perfect brick oven pizza is just food, mere nourishment, not a crispy, aromatic experience of basil, tomato sauce, mozzarella on its way to becoming a culinary memory. Planning travel to other countries feels burdensome with all the flight preparation and itinerary building. I lose my sense of excitement. Yet, when I come out of my despair or have figured things out with the help of friends and family, I am more alive than ever, rendered new, painfully so. My synesthesia kicks in. I want to explore.” Celebrate the power of poems with a gift to The Slowdown today. Every donation makes a difference: https://tinyurl.com/rjm4synp
In this week's episode, Anna speaks to Kerri Burchill in the latest in her interview series. In 2006, Kerri and her life partner felt that their world was a little too comfortable, so they carved a new path that took them from Canada to the Caribbean, then to NYC, Detroit, Baltimore, rural Illinois and now San Antonio. Along that journey, Kerri completed her PhD and her executive coaching certificate. Without question, those life and work experiences shape Kerri's work today. In that journey, Kerri saw how structures drive behavior. Her consulting work helps companies create structures that foster communication, trust, accountability and achieve results, which help leaders lead out of the ASKhole trap and feel fabulous about their work.

Today's poem is Polycardial by James Hoch. This episode was originally released on February 3, 2023. The Slowdown is your daily poetry ritual. In this episode, Major writes… “Today's poem, is a sort of sentimental journey which ponders that tenderness of our youth, when it seems like our hunger for love and touch and connection peak.

Today's poem is Cricket Song by George Kalogeris. This episode was originally released on February 27, 2023. The Slowdown is your daily poetry ritual. In this episode, Major writes… “At times, no words exist to capture our rapid, forward-marching world. Life outpaces language. It is then we attempt to create fresh language or rinse cycle words until we have a new purchase on old concepts. For example, for about a decade, I've been trying to formulate a word that explains the phenomenon of contagious yawning. It's a thing and I'm haunted by this lack in our speech. It is what leads me to sing.” Celebrate the power of poems with a gift to The Slowdown today. Every donation makes a difference: https://tinyurl.com/rjm4synp

Online business owners are struggling to reach the right people and grow their audience because they're following outdated tactics and advice. They have a limited budget (and time) but they're wasting their time on things that don't actually get their business in front of the right people. In today's episode, I share 6 mistakes that slow down this audience growth and how to avoid them.- Why relying on social media to attract new clients no longer works—and what you can do instead.- Why jumping from tactic to tactic, or platform to platform doesn't work either and how being consistent on one platform is much more effective.- How sharing remarkable content is even more important now that AI is here.- How being crystal clear on your ideal client, messaging and content pillars is what will stop your ideal client mid-scroll.- Why looking to others for what to do and what to share online is a sure fire way to blend in with the crowd.SHOW LINKS:- Episode #662: 7 questions to get crystal clear on your messaging.

In part two of now THREE, Amanda explores fast fashion 1.0 and 2.0 through the lens of her career. In this episode we will break down all of the acrobatics brands did to bring their customers more and more newness, faster and faster. How fashion got faster with some help from social media and the normalization of shopping online. How retailers began to commodify every holiday and occasion, creating products we didn't really need for every and any "event." Why fast fashion retailers started to carry a lot of new things that weren't clothing. How small online-only retailers like Modcloth, Nasty Gal, Lulu's, and Dolls Kill were able to offer even more steady newness without a huge in-house design team. Get ready to learn about the San Pedro Apparel Mart. How fast fashion 2.0 brands like Fashion Nova and Boohoo could keep prices low while creating product faster than anyone else.

In part one of two, Amanda explores the rise of fast fashion 1.0 through the lens of her career as a buyer: How economic and social factors helped it blow up in the 2000s (and why millennials are "The Fast Fashion Generation"). Its impact on workers throughout the world. How it altered both consumer behavior and our perception of price and value. The changes brands made in order to remain highly profitable while selling everything at a lower price. And we'll learn who coined the term "fast fashion."Additional reading:"Is working in fashion going out of style?," BELLA WEBB AND MALIHA SHOAIB, Vogue Business."Chanel shoes, but no salary: how one woman exposed the scandal of the French fashion industry," Stefanie Marsh, The Guardian."Fashion; Two New Stores That Cruise Fashion's Fast Lane," Anne-Marie Schiro, The New York Times, 1989."Swedish Outlet Chain Gambles It Can Change Consumer Tastes : Will Cheap Chic Win Over Stylish French?," Joseph Fitchett, The New York Times (1988)."'Cheap Chic' Draws Crowds on 5th Ave," Ruth Ferla, The New York Times (2000).Special thanks to this episode's sponsor:Soft Work, intuitive garment construction for beginners.

Today's poem is Nocturne by Oliver Baez Bendorf. The Slowdown is your daily poetry ritual. In this episode, Major writes… “In young adulthood, long before children, jobs, home ownership, my evenings felt like a blank canvas of cultural and spiritual possibility. I felt a joyous connection to all around me, artists and writers and musicians, thinkers and believers, both living and departed, alive in their pursuit of beauty and knowledge. I was starving and knew it. On South Street, one bookstore stayed open till midnight. Many nights I closed it down, sitting in a corner reading a paperback, a beer in my pocket or a cup of coffee in my hand. At some point, I knew I needed to make art, to move to celebrating the world's loveliness. I was perpetually hungry to do so.” Celebrate the power of poems with a gift to The Slowdown today.
