Podcast appearances and mentions of Susan Brooks

In this season we have been discussing Healing the Heart of the Church.  Our post Covid world is a continuing landscape of change and uncertainty. On the one hand change can cause stress and difficulties in the daily operations of a small business or non profit.  On the other hand, change creates space to do things differently.  Change brings with it the opportunity to meet a need or provide a service in a way that hasn't been done before. I have a special guest in this episode who uses her unique gifts and accounting expertise to help leaders structure their organizations in the way in which they are uniquely designed to lead. She will share her personal and professional experience to inspire us to bring solutions to our workplace and industries.  What you can expect in this episode: Our guest today will share how she found her true identity in business school. She will discuss how she uses her gifts to help nonprofits and small businesses find unique leadership and financial solutions. And how God is using her gifts in business to help other leaders be successful in business and in life. Our special guest is  Susan Brooks, the founder of Noble Accounting. I met her through our mutual interest in prayer ministry and helping others find their true identity. Connect with Noble Accounting at www.NobleAccounts.com Susan Brooks Facebook Noble Accounting of Tulsa If we are seeking a move of God we have to prepare our hearts to receive it and carry the weighty responsibility.  Now is the time for healing the heart of the church, to find healing and wholeness for our own heart, and move forward fearless and free, to be all He has created us to be in the workplace. Stay tuned for our next  episode as we continue this important conversation about bringing our God-given design and creative solutions into the workplace.  For more on improving the work culture, get your copy of When Work Works.  Available on Amazon.

Easter Consulting LLC, a firm on a mission to offer informed solutions to the toughest human resource management challenges.Questions Include:During our research for this interview, we learned that T.H. Easter Consulting was awarded the 2021 American Business Awards, “Stevie” for its “DE&I Sustainability Framework”, can you tell us what it is and what is special about it.All kinds of organizations took a step back in the wake of George Floyd's murder - trying to understand whether and how racism and other “isms” exist in their workplaces.  What has been your experience of working with organizations to better understand whether and how “isms” exist and what to do about it? What advice would you offer to organizations that have not started a formal process or maybe contemplating one? The pandemic changed the way we work: teleworking, large numbers of women leaving the workplaces, and much more. As a result, the workforce seems to be demanding more from employees when it comes to pay, work hours, and benefits. What are you seeing? Speaking of telework and the ”hybrid workplace” – what are you seeing as the impact on organizations? We do our best to ensure editorial objectivity.

A number of Republicans in the House have announced their retirements... and turns out many are in suburban districts, where the GOP’s support has been dwindling. In June, we saw one of the more high-profile Republican retirements when Congresswoman Susan Brooks, who represents Indiana’s 5th congressional district, announced that she would not seek reelection. In fact, 4 of the 11 retirements are Congressman in Texas. This on top of 5 Texas Republican retirements in 2018 and two districts where Democrats flipped the seat. Could this turn Texas -- a historically red state -- blue, or at least purple? This week, we break down these Republican retirements. Guests: Brendan Buck is a partner at Seven Letter Communications and the former chief communications advisor and counselor to Speaker Paul Ryan. Susan Brooks (R), represents Indiana’s 5th congressional district.  Pete Sessions (R), former Congressman from Texas. Cal Jillson, professor of political science at Southern Methodist University in Dallas. Manny Garcia, executive director of the Texas Democratic Party.

This week started with Trump's attacks on Black leader House Oversight Committee Chair Elijah Cummings, whose panel has several ongoing investigations targeting Trump and his family. Trump used dehumanizing language like “rats” and “infest” to disparage Cummings' home district of Baltimore, then broadened his attack during the week to other prominent Black men including Al Sharpton, who he called a “con man” and CNN host Don Lemon who he called “dumb.” Trump refused to back off, escalating his racist attacks — gaslighting the country that he is not the racist, but Cummings is — as news of hate-based shootings and instances of overt racism spread in an anxious and increasingly divided country. A new label for Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell — Moscow Mitch — struck a nerve with the leader, and as the media and Democrats questioned his unwillingness to secure the country's election, his other ties to Russia came under scrutiny. Headwinds for impeachment continued post Mueller's testimony as over half the House Democrats formally called for the start of an impeachment inquiry, while Trump continued to deny Russia interference happened or is happening now. Trump pushed out the Director of National Intelligence, Dan Coats, one of the few remaining voices who stood up to Trump on foreign policy, and perhaps the last non-partisan stop-gap to future Russia interference. The future of the Republican Party came into question this week, as Rep. Will Hurd, the only Black American member of the House for the GOP, became the ninth Republican to say he will not seek re-election in 2020. Among the nine are also two of the 13 GOP women, including Rep. Susan Brooks, who was meant to recruit more women to run. Read the full list here: https://theweeklylist.org/weekly-list/week-142/

Supreme Court hears case to decide if pregnancy discrimination is sex discrimination. Stella Bliss went all the way to the Supreme Court of Canada when she was denied benefits under the Unemployment Insurance Act because she was experiencing pregnancy-related health problems. In 1979, the Supreme Court ruled that although only women could get pregnant, any inequality Bliss experienced stemmed from “nature,” not from sex discrimination. In other words, discrimination based on pregnancy was not discrimination based on sex. Years later, Susan Brooks, Patricia Allen and Patricia Dixon were working as part-time cashiers for Safeway Ltd. in Brandon, Manitoba, when they became pregnant. Under the company insurance plan, employees were eligible to receive a portion of their wages in the event of sickness or accident. However, pregnant women were not eligible for this coverage if their disability occurred during the 17 weeks surrounding the expected delivery of their baby. All three women applied for pregnancy-related disability benefits during their 17-week period, but were refused. Instead, they received Unemployment Insurance coverage that turned out to be less than the company’s plan specified. They complained to the Manitoba Human Rights Commission, and on June 15, 1988, found their case before the Supreme Court of Canada. It took a year, but the court ended up siding with the women, stating that Safeway had discriminated against them due to their pregnancies. At the same time, the court overturned the 10-year-old Bliss case ruling, saying that discrimination based on pregnancy would henceforth be considered discrimination based on sex in Canada.
