So by the time they come to the Beam project, they have long histories of addiction and incarceration, often homelessness.”The nonprofit employs the women to make bean soup–and about 50 other food products they sell locally and online nationally.She provides some additional context for understanding the work: No one ever has one barrier to employment. Barriers happen in clusters, and they're interwoven and complicated. So, there are challenges with maintaining sobriety. There are health issues that have come up because of years of substance misuse. There are communication challenges. There's a history of domestic violence.Think about all of those things in the context of how they get in the way of employment and employment being the key to breaking out of poverty and staying out of prison. We approach it from that standpoint of working with each woman, meeting her where she is and helping her overcome her barriers to employment.To illustrate the power of the work, Tamra shares a story of a young woman:One woman stands out to me. She was just 21. That's our minimum age to hire at. Her background was that at 13, her mom introduced her to cocaine and later threw her out of the house because she perceived that she was competition for boyfriends.So, at roughly 13, she was on the streets. She didn't finish school. She was too young to get a job. So, she spent the next five years involved with a lot of bad people, doing a lot of bad things. Maybe the best thing that could have happened to her is that at 18, she was arrested because then she got into the justice system; that helped her get stable and get sober. By the time she was 21 when her pastor referred her to us, she was ready to start her life and to watch her go from not having had the opportunity to develop her identity as a teen, which is when we typically do, to becoming–deciding who she wanted to be and what kind of mom she wanted to be. Today, she's in her 30s, and she is she has a daughter. Think about the fact that her daughter will never know a time when [her mom's] not employed. Not only does she, this woman, have a full-time job, but she also volunteers at a women's prison near her home and does pastoral counseling for the women who are in this prison. When I think about when we get to a point where we are stable enough to begin to pay it forward or to help someone else, that's a testament to having accomplished a lot.The program's success proves that troubled women society may be tempted to write off as lost souls are worth a hill of beans–and much more. Their lives have all the potential of anyone else and all the value of any of us.In this inspiring work, Tamra daily employs her superpower, giving grace.AI Episode Summary* Tamra Ryan is the CEO of the Women's Bean Project in Denver, which employs women in difficult circumstances through a nonprofit social enterprise.* The Women's Bean Project hires women experiencing chronic unemployment and teaches them the skills needed to move to mainstream employment.* The women work in food manufacturing, producing a variety of food items distributed across the US.* The purpose of the Women's Bean Project is to help women overcome barriers to employment.* Women spend 70% of their paid time working in the business and 30% of their paid time in classes focused on personal development.* The Women's Bean Project works with other organizations to provide additional support, such as housing, legal services, and counseling.* The women in the program typically have histories of addiction, incarceration, and homelessness.* The Women's Bean Project aims to address the whole person and help women become great employees who can then find jobs in the community.* The program has had many success stories, with women blossoming into confident individuals who can support themselves and their families.* By changing a woman's life, the Women's Bean Project also has a positive impact on her family and the community as a whole.How to Develop Giving Grace As a SuperpowerTamra shares how she uses her superpower, giving grace, to serve the women employed at the Women's Bean Project:The person I'm interacting with is coming from a place, and maybe they're doing the best that they can, and maybe it's not a great interaction, but I need to give them the grace to be where they are at that time. I think very often, especially today, so many of our interactions between people entirely lack grace–just understanding that people bring different perspectives to every interaction with one another–there is not a lot of grace-giving that's happening.Tamra shared another inspiring story to help us see the impact of grace:I think of a woman named Joy who came to us after spending time in federal prison because of the level of drug dealing that she was doing. She came to us; she had gotten custody of her kids back. She had four kids ranging in age from 8 to 18 when she started working for us. During the time that she was working for us, at the time, our wage was $8 an hour. When she went back for her redetermination for her food stamps, which were helping her support her kids, she was receiving $150 a month–and figuring out how to make that work with just 150 bucks–and they cut her to $5 a month because her $8 an hour job was too much.She came in to work and said, “I just have to quit because this isn't worth it. I don't even know why I don't just go back to dealing drugs because I never had to worry about this problem. I didn't have to report my income.”It was a dark time for her. She stopped coming to work for a few days. We started working with her. We wouldn't let her go. We persisted. What could have happened with any other employer is to just let her quit. What we decided was that, in the long run, that wouldn't be the best thing for her or her family–allowing her to quit. Instead, we helped her get access to food resources. She was pretty close to graduating. I think the ultimate punch in the face to fate was that she went on to work for a food distributor, making $18 an hour, so she no longer even needed access to food stamps. She graduated our program because we wouldn't let her quit. And then she ended up having this sweet revenge on the universe by getting such a great job.Tamra also shares some advice for giving grace:Check yourself and realize that your perspective is just one perspective. I often joke that there are three sides to every story: his, hers, and the truth. Starting from that standpoint of understanding that just because it's your opinion and it may be a well-founded opinion or perspective, it's not the only perspective. Being open to the idea that someone else's perspective is just as valid as your own and being willing to listen to it and try to understand [is key]. It's easy for us to apply our paradigms. I think back to when I first started at the Bean Project, with the biases and prejudices that I had that I didn't even know I had. I remember thinking that people who were chronically unemployed didn't want to work or that people who went to prison had just made bad choices. It was their fault. It took meeting women and recognizing that, except for the fact that I happen to be born a middle-class white girl in Colorado Springs, there was no difference between us. A woman may have made bad choices, but maybe she had five choices, and they were all bad. She chose the best of the bad. It was being faced with the reality that other people had that wasn't the same as my reality—beginning to understand that except for the grace of God, go I on some level—being open to the idea that each of our own perspectives is one of many perspectives. Being open to this idea that we may not be right is a great way to start in terms of giving grace.By following Tamra's example and advice, you can make giving grace an empowering skill that helps you better serve others. With practice, you can make it a superpower that enables you to do more good in the world.Guest ProfileTamra Ryan  (she/her):CEO, Women's Bean Project About Women's Bean Project: Women's Bean Project provides job training and employment to women facing significant barriers to work, selling high-quality food products made by these women to support their mission.Website: www.womensbeanproject.com/Twitter Handle: @womensbeanCompany Facebook Page: facebook.com/womensbeanprojectOther URL: www.womensbeanproject.com/subscription/Biographical Information: Tamra Ryan is the CEO of Women's Bean Project, a social enterprise that provides transitional employment while operating a food manufacturing business to women attempting to break the cycle of chronic unemployment and poverty.

In this episode of We Are Vineyard, Jay chats with Nicole Dill about being born into a party, reading in the corners of bars and clubs where her dad played music, and how her life as a spiritually-seeking preteen eventually led her to a defining encounter with the Holy Spirit. Nicole shares about learning to trust the Lord to guide the expression her calling takes in different seasons of life, and the way all of her different experiences and roles are being utilized in her current position as the Communications Director for Vineyard USA. They discuss the discipline and gift of anchoring into community, the value in bringing exactly who you are to your local church, and the joy of being a conduit and a resource for the kingdom of God.

In 2002, she moved to Colorado to help plant the Arvada Vineyard, and helped lead this growing church plant while finishing her degree in Photography at the Art Institute of Colorado. In 2008, Nicole planted and pastored the first multisite church for the Mile High Vineyard in downtown Denver with a team from the Arvada Vineyard. After several years of pastoring there she handed the site off to another pastor and helped several other Vineyard church plants and established churches in the Denver area. Nicole has also worked extensively outside the church leading creative teams at Anthropologie as a store designer, as Chief Operations Officer for TEDxMileHigh, the largest TEDx in North America, and for the White House as an Advance Associate for the President.

On July 20, 2012, a mass shooting in a movie theater of Aurora, Colorado left the town, and its nation, reeling. To many -- including Tom Teves, who lost his son in the tragedy -- the news coverage that followed focused on all the wrong things. Why did the reporting overwhelmingly fixate on the shooter rather than the lives of the victims or the heroic efforts of first responders? With urgency and measure, Teves calls for responsible media attention that acts in the interest of the public (instead of profit) by revoking what shooters want most: infamy.

Dr. Paula Williams spent 13 years as the host of a national television show (viewed by millions) and served as the Chairman and CEO of The Orchard Group -- a non-profit organization that starts new churches in the US-- for 34 years. Then her name was Paul. From a very young age, Paula knew she was transgender, but given her upbringing in a conservative religious household, she learned to keep this secret to herself. She eventually married, had children of her own, and was successful by many measures. But something was missing. One night, Paula (then Paul) had a life-altering realization. She knew that if she transitioned to being a woman it would inflict pain onto the people she loved most and she would put everything she worked for at risk, but it was bigger than her. It was a calling towards authenticity. When Paula finally mustered up enough courage to face her biggest fear and come out, she lost everything: all her jobs, her pension, her friends, and the news sent her family into disarray. Few people in her religious community understood or supported her. She says that was a brutal time for everyone in her family, especially for her ex-wife and kids. With some years behind the pivotal transition, Paula's experience of being initially a man, then a woman gave her a front-row seat to how women and men are treated differently at work and in life. Her unique journey has compelled her to advocate for gender equity, LGBTQ inclusion, executive leadership and American religion. In this episode, she shares about how different it feels leading in the business world as a woman, versus when she was a man and opens up about her inspiring journey towards authenticity. Tune in to get the full conversation and learn about: Leadership challenges Societal expectations and limitations The courage to be authentic The powerful journey of a transgender woman How men and women are treated differently in life and at work Cultural biases men and women live Challenges of women and LGBTQ in executive positions Rev. Dr. Paula Williams' biography: Dr. Paula Stone Williams is a national public speaker specializing in Gender Equity, LGBTQ Inclusion, Executive Leadership and American Religion.

Every passing month gives Dr. Paula Williams more and more insight into the experience of women. She knew from a young age that she was transgender. She felt more attuned to the world of women than the world of men - but not really. As a male CEO of a large non-profit organization, Paula didn’t realize just how much male privilege she had. From her first week living as a woman, it was a daily experience being confronted by how much privilege she no longer had. From a male passenger on a plane having his wine glass refilled four times while Paula had none, to a business meeting where her 35 years of expertise in the field was completely ignored, the reality of being a woman was all too apparent. And before you ask, it’s not a transgender thing. It’s a men/women thing, ubiquitous to all cultures, all over the world. More in this episode: The essential things men can do in the workplace to make sure women’s voices are heard The difference between thinking you’re a good guy and knowing you actually weren’t The disparate ways women and men think in the workplace How the pay equity act also advances the cause of people of color in the workforce How religion may actually be encouraging the sexualization of women in the office Paula’s realization that as a man, she was judged by her body of work, while as a woman she was judged by the last thing she did The most effective way for women to work, and why How the GDP in the US would be impacted if we had true gender equality Dr. Paula Williams is an internationally known speaker on gender equity and LGBTQ advocacy. She is the Pastor of Preaching and Worship at Left Hand Church in Longmont, Colorado. She is also the president of RLT Pathways, where she provides pastoral counseling and corporate consulting.

"Eu preciso do feminismo porque um homem preso em um quarto com várias mulheres sente que ganhou na loteria, mas uma mulher presa em um quarto com vários homens sente pavor de ser violentada." Experimente dizer esta frase (ou qualquer outra de mesmo cunho) perto de um representante do sexo masculino e faça o teste: em quanto tempo surgirá uma voz das trevas para dizer "mas nem todo homem..."? Bingo. Em tempos de desconstrução e conscientização social, ainda há quem acredite que individualizar discursos seja o caminho, fechando os olhos para o real contexto estrutural da luta feminista. No episódio de hoje, nossas mulheres podcasters tomam o poder e o microfone, liderando um bate papo necessário para os que desejam fomentar reflexões e evoluir.

Today is my discussion thoughts of a video I watched recently - I've lived as a man & a woman - Here's what I learned. This was a TEDxMileHigh talk by Paula Stone Williams.

Serious rant about how companies don't trust us to be loyal any more - and that we aren't loyal because companies don't care enough to earn our loyalty.

I got a chance to speak with Scott Strode and I was blown away with how such a seemingly simple idea could have such a huge impact on recovery. And it makes sense, right? We were created for community and that's what he's created with The Phoenix. I'm looking forward to checking it out next time I'm in Denver or Boston! Scott is the founder and national executive director of The Phoenix. Phoenix offers a unique approach to combat addiction by fostering a sober, supportive, physically active community for individuals in recovery from substance use disorder. Phoenix is based on Scott's own experience and his discovery that a healthy, active lifestyle has a transformative effect on long-term sobriety. Scott also realized the critical component of surrounding oneself with a new sober supportive network of friends. Phoenix is unique in that its programs are free to anyone who has at least 48 hours of continuous sobriety. This removes a significant financial barrier to sobriety. Free programs include yoga, climbing, cycling, running, CrossFit, boxing, and socials. Since 2007, Phoenix has served over 24,000 individuals in 11 cities and 9 states with plans to expand into new communities in the near future. Scott was named a Top 10 CNN Hero in 2012, received the “Advocates for Action Award” from the White House Office of National Drug Control Policy, and was a TEDxMileHigh speaker in 2016. Scott's passion in life is to help others rise from the ashes of their addiction and live a full life of sobriety in long-term recovery.   To connect with Scott: * Email: scott@thephoenix.org * Website: www.thephoenix.org   Additional resources: * The Meadows * How the War on Drugs Has Changed Tunes

Dr. Eurich has been named one of Denver Business Journal's “40 Under 40,” a “Top 100 Thought Leader” by Trust Across America, and a “Leader to Watch” by the American Management Association alongside the likes of Patrick Lencioni, Ram Charan, and Chip Heath.

She lives in her hometown of Denver, Colorado with her husband and their rambunctious dogs. In a world where we tweet at each other instead of listen to each other, where style trumps substance, and where he who talks the loudest is most likely to be heard, it’s easy to lose sight of who we really are, and how others really see us. In the vein of Quiet, INSIGHT takes us on a journey of self-exploration, showing us how to survive and thrive an increasingly delusional world. Have you been curious about what other people say about you when you’re not in the room? Or wondered if the “you” that stares back in the mirror is the same person others see? Or found yourself thinking, How well do I understand myself, really? INSIGHT: Why We’re Not as Self-Aware as We Think, and How Seeing Ourselves Clearly Helps Us Succeed at Work and in Life
