Content Warning: This episode deals with sensitive topics like suicide, PTSD, divorce, and poor mental health.  On the surface, Tereson Dupuy has led a pretty good life.  She successfully ran her business FuzziBunz Diapers for almost two decades and kickstarted the modern cloth diapering movement. All in all, she sold $32 million dollars worth of product.  But beneath the surface, it's a different story. Tereson's dealt with trauma ever since she was little: trauma which bled into her entrepreneurial life. She's battled abandonment and lost her son to suicide during the pandemic.  But Tereson's traumas have actually unlocked her ability to lead with love, both for herself and those around her. The death of her son Eden in particular spurred her upcoming memoir titled "The Return of Eden", which details how he has guided Tereson along her healing journey…from beyond the veil.In this special Women's History Month episode, Tereson talks about:Making sense of suicide and lossHow prolonged trauma impacted her businessDealing with betrayal from predatory business partnersHow her son's diaper rash led inspired a $30,000,000 companyThe unforgettable quote from a Shark Tank shark that changed her life We have a new website!Visit andsosheleft.com for full episodes, transcripts, an application form to be on the show, a list of upcoming guests and more.Hosted by Katherin Vasilopoulos.

Warning: this episode contains mild language and themes that some listeners may find upsetting.  It's hard for us to talk about money. We often squirm a bit, glance at each other, and muddle through most discussions about personal finance. But we also don't talk about it enough…especially as it relates to gender.   Kristine Beese is the founder of Untangle Money, which aims to teach financial literacy to women everywhere. Kristine's inspiration came from the glaring reminders about her gender that surrounded her at work. In both the engineering and finance sectors of the Oil & Gas industry, sexism was baked into workplace culture, in different flavours and severities across different cities and sectors.  We talk about sexism in the workplace, the different ways in which it can present itself at work, and how widespread sexism persists on both a macro and micro scale in our professional lives. Kristine talks about:Breaking down gendered messaging about moneyWorking in the Oil & Gas industry, and different types of sexismFigure skating, and the power of focusing on what you can controlWhy products are generally designed with men as the ideal customerGentlemanly sexism, proving worth, unequal power dynamics at workCreating a more equitable financial landscape for women through Untangle We'd love to hear your feedback! Here's a quick 5-question survey.

Nadine Kenney Johnstone has always surrounded herself with words.  As a child in the Southside of Chicago, Nadine found herself nose-deep in countless books, drawing strength and understanding from the narratives within. Her local library was where her passion for literature bloomed, where she learned to nurture relationships with her loved ones and make sense of her surroundings. Her resilience in overcoming hardships, including bouts of intense burnout and panic attacks, has been nothing short of inspirational. In recognizing the potential of the written word to forge deep personal connections, Nadine embarked on a journey as a full-time writing coach. She established her organization, WriteWELL, with the mission of uniting wellness and writing through retreats and workshops. Nadine's podcast, Heart of the Story, amplifies the heartfelt narratives of writers she's worked alongside. Her goal? To empower as many women as possible, encouraging them to share their most vulnerable moments with the world. In this conversation, Nadine pulls back the curtain on her own experiences with overwork and the invaluable life lessons she learned in her early years about tenacity and perseverance. She also highlights the power of personal narratives and the freedom in being able to pivot at any stage of one's journey.  Learn more about WriteWELL here. Listen to Heart of the Story.  In this episode, we cover:Having supportive parents that encouraged Nadine's unconventional career choicesAnxiety, panic attacks, and living an unsustainable lifestyleFinding fulfillment in helping others to tell meaningful storiesOvercoming perfectionism and allowing yourself to "slack off" a little bitThe therapeutic values of writingHow to get your writing out in the world, and why your story matters Quote of the Week:“Talent can only take you so far.

For Big Table episode 51, editors Joshua Glenn & Rob Walker discuss their latest book, Lost Objects: 50 Stories About the Things We Miss and Why They Matter.  Is there a “Rosebud” object in your past? A long-vanished thing that lingers in your memory—whether you want it to or not? As much as we may treasure the stuff we own, perhaps just as significant are the objects we have, in one way or another, lost. What is it about these bygone objects? Why do they continue to haunt us long after they've vanished from our lives? In Lost Objects, editors Joshua Glenn and Rob Walker have gathered answers to those questions in the form of 50 true stories from a dazzling roster of writers, artists, thinkers, and storytellers, including Lucy Sante, Ben Katchor, Lydia Millet, Neil LaBute, Laura Lippman, Geoff Manaugh, Paola Antonelli, and Margaret Wertheim to name just a few. Each spins a unique narrative that tells a personal tale, and dives into the meaning of objects that remain present to us emotionally, even after they have physically disappeared. While we may never recover this Rosebud, Lost Objects will teach us something new about why it mattered in the first place—and matters still. For the readings this episode, two authors read their essays from the book: First up, Lucy Sante discusses her long lost club chair; and Mandy Keifez recounts her lost Orgone Accumulator.

Content warning: this episode contains references to self-harm and other issues related to mental health. As an entrepreneur, drawing a line between personal value and the success of your venture can be a daunting task. But when your personal journey intimately intertwines with the quality of your services, that line becomes increasingly blurred. On this episode, we're joined by Megan Rafuse, Co-Founder and CEO of Shift Collab - one of Canada's largest online therapy practices. In this vulnerable conversation, Megan candidly delves into her responsibility as a clinician to continually learn from her clients; and her belief that when one teaches, two learn. She shares her journey of balancing the enriching insights gained from her clients with the complexities of maintaining personal and professional boundaries. Being in the mental health field added another challenging layer, the weight of appearing 'perfect' whilst dealing with her own struggles. From navigating through traumatic experiences to the pressures of bootstrapping a seven-figure business amidst her mental health battles, Megan unveils the intricate dynamics that formed the foundation of Shift Collab. She also takes us through what she eloquently calls the "troughs of sorrow" — those difficult moments that tested her resilience, shaped her journey, and from which she eventually emerged stronger.Learn more about Shift Collab. In this episode, we cover:How to learn as a teacher from your studentsAcknowledging when you're in a "trough of sorrow," and how to emerge from them stronger and more resilentWhat to do when your image and public personality reflects the quality of the services you provideEffective tips for working with your significant other as a Co-FounderWhy decision making is not an innate skill, and how to build your decision making muscles Quote of the Week:"If my sense of self is too much attached to the company…at the expense of the business' success, then I'm not a healthy leader." - Megan Rafuse Hosted by Katherin Vasilopoulos.

After a stream of back to back to back episodes covering specific brands of cameras and talking to a huge number of listeners, the guys and I decided we would take a short break from our "open source" concept to catch up on the things we all have been doing. We thought it would be a nice change to have a smaller, more intimate discussion and invite someone we all thoroughly enjoy talking to and wanted to catch up with. After a painstaking "Hunger Games" style of elimination rounds, the guys and I picked none other than Dan Tamarkin as our special guest host this week.  As he always does, Dan brings with him a lifetime of knowledge of Leica and camera retail experience. With that experience, we decided it would be fun to talk about some recent auctions, including a rather infamous one that recently closed in Northern Ohio which Paul and I participated in, and a large number of our listeners did as well.  We've heard some of the stories from that auction and have a few of our own, so we talk about that, along with Tamarkin Auctions, and everything that goes into making one run smoothly, and what might make them run "not smoothly". In addition to auctions, Anthony thought it would be fun to announce in the presence of a well-known Leica dealer that he sold every single Leica he owns, and traded it for a viewfinder camera.  What kind of viewfinder camera is equal to a perfectly working Leica M3 and a IIIf you ask?  Listen to the show. In addition, Mike's not dead, Robot Theo is pining for his job, Human Theo bought some stuff from Paul, Paul is bringing out the bling with his golden cameras, and Mike is shooting one of those Japanese "Hit" style miniature cameras. As always, the topics we discuss on the Camerosity Podcast are influenced by you!  We would love to hear from more listeners, especially those who are new to shooting film or collecting cameras.  Please don't feel like you have to be an expert on a specific type of camera, or have the level of knowledge on par with other people on the show.  We LOVE people who are new to shooting and are interested in having an episode dedicated to people new to the hobby, so please don't consider your knowledge level to be a prerequisite for joining! The guys and I rarely know where each episode is going to go until it happens, so if you'd like to join us on a future episode, be sure to look out for our show announcements on our Camerosity Podcast Facebook page, and right here on mikeeckman.com.  We usually record every other Monday and announcements, along with the Zoom link are typically shared 2-3 days in advance. For our next Episode, we will re-open the call-in lines and talk about Mamiya and their very diverse line up of roll film TLR and SLRs, along with their many different iterations of 35mm cameras.  Episode 45 will be recorded on Monday, March 20th.  We hope to see you there!

60 Stories About 30 Seconds: How I Got Away With Becoming a Pretty Big Commercial Director Without Losing My Soul (Or Maybe Just Part of It) by Bruce Van Dusen Brucevandusen.com You’ve probably seen more movies made by Bruce Van Dusen than any other director alive. 1977. New York City. Cool and crime-ridden, cheap and wild. Bruce Van Dusen shows up in town with a film degree and $150 to his name. He wants to make movies. So he does. The only ones anyone will pay him to make? Little ones. Thirty seconds long. Commercials. He has no idea what he’s doing and the money sucks. But he’s a director. He quickly learns he has the two things he needs to succeed in the fickle world of commercial-making: a talent for telling short, emotional stories, and the hustle to fight for every job no matter how small. He still has no idea what he’s doing—not that anyone needs to know that. He just keeps making it up as he goes along. He gets hired by a client on life support in the most depressing hospital in New York. Gets peed on by a lion. Abused by Charles Bronson. Explains peristalsis to a Tony winner. Makes a movie and goes to Sundance. Goes back to little movies when it bombs. Keeps hustling, shooting anything. Gets married, has kids. Pushes, shoves, survives. Gets divorced. Survives some more. Is an asshole, pays the price, finally learns when and how to be an asshole and becomes one of the industry’s stars. Years go by and it’s not what he expected. It’s harder, weirder, and funnier. But it worked out. It worked out great, actually. About Bruce Van Dusen Bruce Van Dusen has directed over a thousand commercials, three movies and a documentary. Over the course of his career, all sorts of weird stuff happened to him. Maybe the weirdest was that he had a very productive, four-decade long career. And now he's written a book about it. 60 Stories About 30 Seconds comes out 9/15/20 from Post Hill/Simon & Schuster. Van Dusen was born in Detroit and lives in New York City.

How does your career stay on track at a time of very high unemployment, great technological change and enormous uncertainty? We explore these questions and much more with one of the advertising industry's most successful commercial directors. When he was 23, Bruce Van Dusen was desperate for a job. For the next 40 years, he thought that every commercial that he made would be his last. With a mix of audacity, determination, and hard work, plus a dash of deep personal insecurity, Bruce developed a remarkable knack for crafting stories that could be told in 30 seconds. His wise and highly entertaining new book is "60 Stories About 30 Seconds: How I Got Away With Being a Pretty Big Commercial Director Without Losing My Soul (Or Maybe Just Part of It)."We discuss some lessons Bruce learned along the way-- lessons that he wished he had known when he started out in his crazy, fast-changing industry. Such as: Go to a meeting any time anywhere; Treat all famous people like they're not; Nothing lasts forever unless you tinker with it all the time.Listen to Crazy Eddie "I Know He's Crazy, But Is He Alive?", one of the many hilarious stories from Bruce's book here.Recommendation: Jim is reading "Made Men.

  This is episode 43, Storytelling About the Past. Have you ever told a story about the past? Or, maybe someone in your family told it about you? And in that story, you did something silly, or odd, or embarrassing? When that story is told, it's just another reminder of our weakness or frailty. Or, maybe about our mistakes. And the brain, which likes to draw conclusions quickly to save its energy, the brain screams out, “Yes! We really were silly, or embarrassing, or made a major mistake, and we always will.” This idea that our brain likes to add to the story, that it will always be this way, it's something called an “automatic thought.” Stories About the Past Create “Automatic Thoughts.”   The brain loves to feed us automatic thoughts. The interesting thing is that mistakes are just things that happen on the timeline of life. But they aren't the definition of who we are. In fact, we can look over the past, the stories we have told about them and stories that others have told about us about past events, and we can actually change those stories and begin to see those experiences mistakes or life events totally afresh. In other words, we can change the past by changing the stories we tell about ourselves. Tips to Try In today's episode, you'll learn about stories we tell about our past. We can find new meaning by exploring automatic thoughts and taking control in the present. When a challenge confronts us, we can get new results by asking reflective questions like these What am I doing to create this problem for myself, or how do I escalate it? Am I giving up my control over the situation? Am I giving up my power to other people on purpose? Am I blaming others? Am I making excuses to justify why things are the way they are am I avoiding or putting off actions? What is my role in the problem? What is the benefit I'm getting when things stay this way? What is it costing me to keep things this way? What would I rather experience? Once we can see the space between  challenging situation we're experiencing and how we'd like things to be, we can take action. Here's to being the best you this week!

As automation improves, what careers will be left for people? Since the advent of technology, there have been concerns about it replacing jobs and leaving people without an income. Technological disruption has often eliminated entire industries. However, new fields of employment have always arisen to replace those, typically focusing more on training and skills, as machines have no minds and little flexibility. While artificial intelligence may one day change that, today we will examine what sort of jobs might be available to people in the future.

It's NAB this week, and we have a new technology and filmmaking episode you must hear before you spend a dime!Because the nature of this show involves taking bits and pieces of longer episodes, I have a veritable vault full of as yet unmined content from fantastic interviews. In honor of it being NAB this week (that annual mecca to Las Vegas for media professionals all over the world), we have as yet unaired excerpts from interviews I conducted last season.Peabody award-winning filmmaker and documentarian Elaine McMillion Sheldon, who won that acclaimed award for her interactive documentary experience "Hollow", chimes in on how the architectural design concept of "form following function" should be applied to storytelling and technology. Also, Seattle Film Institute executive director David Shulman uses makes an appearance with an example of how a master's approach to filmmaking can be applied to our use of the latest and greatest. And it all starts with a simple (or not so simple) question asked by my 12-year-old aspiring filmmaking son.Music in this EpisodeMusic was curated from FreeMusicArchive.org.

During Worldcon, the mad writers grabbed master networker K.M. Szpara to join them for a little chat. They start with the basics of networking, with Kelly providing the Mad Writers with specific conversation starters. He emphasizes the power of listening. Thanks to their live studio audience they also discuss more fraught topics such as alcohol consumption during events. Receive instruction in how to leave a conversation you've been edged out of. Because of the live situation, this episode is Not Safe For Work, as the customary bleeps could not find their way into the temporary Volcano Waterfall lair.PLEASE NOTE!
