Both Diana and Aaron work at the intersection of water sustainability, thriving rivers, resilient agriculture, and strong communities– harnessing TNC's relationships and resources to advance some of the most cutting-edge and effective conservation initiatives in the American West. - Diana and Aaron bring a diverse set of skills and experiences to their work at TNC. Diana holds a PhD in Biological Sciences and has spent much of her career working with a wide array of partners on restoration ecology and planning, climate adaptation, and management of public funding. Aaron is a river guide-turned-conservationist who began his career focusing on conservation in the Rio Grande River basin, and now applies his skills toward creating pragmatic, solution-oriented approaches to freshwater challenges in the greater Colorado River basin. But perhaps most importantly, they both bring a deep level of passion and focus to their work– their optimistic commitment to solving some of the West's most pressing water and agricultural challenges is infectious. - Diana, Aaron, and I connected virtually and had an educational and inspiring conversation about water, agriculture, and community here in Colorado and beyond. We discussed some of the most urgent water-related challenges and opportunities and how they are working with a wide range of stakeholders to find mutually beneficial solutions. We discuss the Yampa River fund, their work helping agricultural producers adjust to a drier climate, and the all-important role of building solid relationships with stakeholders. We discussed the Maybell Irrigation Ditch Project, which is a fascinating, win-win project for both producers and recreational river users, and we discussed some of the water-related challenges that keep both Diana and Aaron up and night. And as usual, they both have plenty of excellent book recommendations. - A huge thank you to Diana and Aaron for taking the time to talk with me, and thank you for listening.

Try breathwork free: https://www.brendawinkle.com/breathe In this podcast episode, Brenda Winkle and Lucas Root discuss their experiences and challenges when leaving their corporate careers. They share personal stories and insights on boundaries, freedom, and pursuing their passions. They also discuss the importance of empowering women, achieving gender parity, and building strong communities. Lucas introduces the concept of the six elements of community: language, purpose, projects, and value. They touch on the financial burden of raising children and the loneliness epidemic. They also explore the use of technology in their creative processes and the importance of understanding and utilizing these tools. Here are the takeaways... Leaving corporate careers to pursue fulfilling work feels like freedom You are selling all the time whether you realize it or not. Consider the ways you "sell" your loved ones on things. In Lucas' example, he mentioned selling your kids on not running in the street. If you have a fear of sales, realizing the ways you are already selling can be supportive. A study by McKinsey revealed that only 5% of C-Suite executives are women. If this could change, and we achieved gender parity, it would infuse the global economy with $28 (updated) Trillion based on the stats provided by that study linked here. Elements of community: Language - Inside stories, the way we shake hands, our words, the ways we dress Purpose - Security is often the primary purpose of community but our communities can focus on much more granular issues. The more granular, the better. Projects - A time-bound activity with a deliverable at the end. Examples Lucas provided included meeting friends for coffee on a Saturday morning. It has to be planned and has to be in pursuit of the purpose and have a deliverable. Value - Shared value: the value you receive and the value you contribute. That could be hugs and friendly faces. It could also considered an energy exchange rather than a direct reciprocity. Social Contract - the rules we choose to live by while we are in community Heart (no exact word in English) - the sharing and receiving of care and pride as it pertains to the work you do with and for the community It's no secret that raising children comes with a financial burden. Building community to help you raise your children is way to create the village of "it takes a village". There is a loneliness epidemic. Human connection is critically important. Invitation to consider how you can create a community with the people around you. Can you ask for help? Can you offer help? Lucas said, love your neighbors and you never know what will happen. Use technology to enhance creative processes. We also talked about the potential risks and benefits of AI. Chat GPT is essentially a calculator predicting outcomes for words. The most important thing to do is to use it, try it or risk being left behind. You can easily enhance creativity by playing with children and finding ways to have fun. Ways to access joy and reprogram oneself for a positive mindset About Lucas Root Lucas Root is a technologist, community builder, and leadership coach with a passion for using technology to improve the world.

This week, episode 162 of the Positively Living Podcast is about how successful leaders build strong communities!In this episode of the Positively Living Podcast, my guest Simon Kardynal shares the qualities and perspective every good leader should have and gives you actionable steps to take right now to create a successful community. Simon and I cover the following topics:The benefits of strong communities. How to become a leader who practices active listening. The many benefits of creating a culture of community in whatever organization you lead. The different kinds of communities and leaders and how they relate to teams.Why celebrating and analyzing successes are just as important, if not more important, as analyzing failures. Community building is like an umbrella.

We had a great conversation with Filippo about Popula. Also, we tried something new and did a platform walk-through with a discussion. The best way to understand a product is to take the tour and ask questions! POPULA is a reputation platform for communities that provides a high-signal-to-noise environment for users to engage with each other and contribute to their communities. Twitter https://twitter.com/beepopula Popula's mission is to give communities a space where their members can communicate, engage, and bond on a deeper level while still maintaining control of their data, content, and social graphs. At the same time, it makes members' interactions and contributions provable and everlasting by recording them fully on-chain and rewarding them with Drips, which is a non-transferrable fungible token, and platform co-ownership at the later stage. POPULA was built on the NEAR protocol, which is designed to onboard the next billion users, offering fast transaction speeds, account abstractions, and cross-chain infrastructure. The platform provides 12 native Web3 tools for community management, including membership, content moderation, and reputation systems etc. Reputation is earned through engagement with the platform and is tied to the user's wallet address. Each community in POPULA is instantiated as a smart contract, meaning it has its own independent culture, and all interactions within the community are saved in the smart contract. Members are rewarded with drips for their engagement on the platform. Drips serve as a signal of reputation within the community and also contains various utilities. POPULA has a roadmap for decentralizing the platform and introducing a token for governance and monetization in the future. The current focus is on community building, and potential monetization strategies include a toolkit for Web3 objects and NFT billboard-style promotions.

Hello everyone! America is a melting pot. Always has been and hopefully, always will be. Even so, immigrant education hasn't shared the spotlight with other issues, yet it is at the foundation of the charge of public education. Laws, court cases, advocates, and critics abound on this issue, but the issue should be taken to to heart and understood by every educator. Last week, Jessica Lander spoke to us about her book, Making Americans, but more importantly, setting the ground work for understanding the nuance and beauty around the project of public education in America.  This week, she is talking about what it takes, and why we should put in the effort, to build strong communities with the families we serve.  Jessica Lander teaches history and civics to recent immigrant students in an urban Massachusetts public high school and has won several teaching awards, including being named a Top 50 Finalist for the Global Teacher Prize in 2021, presented by the Varkey Foundation and being named a 2023 MA Teacher of the Year Finalist, presented by the MA Department of Elementary and Secondary Education. Previously she has taught students in middle school, high school, and university in the U.S., Thailand, and Cambodia. She is author of Making Americans, a comprehensive look at immigrant education as told through key historical moments and court decisions, current experiments to improve immigrant education, and profiles of immigrant youth and schools across the country.
