Why do bad things happen? Recording artist, former America's Got Talent finalist, and author of More Than My Scars Kechi Okwuchi asked herself this question after a plane crash changed her life. In this episode of VOICES' Where Ya From? podcast, Kechi joins host Rasool Berry to discuss how to rely on God's unchanging love when faced with unspeakable tragedy. Guest Bio: Kechi Okwuchi is a Nigerian American recording artist, motivational speaker, author of More Than My Scars, and a former finalist on America's Got Talent in 2017. One of two survivors in the Sosoliso Airlines Flight 1145 crash on December 10, 2005, she became a national patient ambassador for Shriners Children's Texas in Galveston in 2017. She has since been active in events organized by WE Movement—a global youth empowerment organization—speaking and singing to thousands of students at WE Day events all over the country. As a bullying prevention advocate, she has teamed up with the organization Be Strong Global, as well as Instagram and Teen Vogue, to speak out against bullying. She hopes to use her story and her musical talents to ignite hope. Okwuchi lives in Pearland, Texas. Notes & Quotes: “Being a Christian does not exempt you from bad things happening to you. Bad things happen in life to good and bad people.” “[God] is a place of endless replenishment and strength, especially when things are really bad.” “Seeing myself through [God's] eyes is probably the best way to hold on to my confidence. You're never going to be able to come to me to make me feel bad based on my appearance, because God doesn't care about that.” Links Mentioned: Check out Kechi's new book, More Than My Scars.

At the age of nine, Hannah launched her blog, Call Me Hannah, to share her growing concern for environmental issues and show that small, everyday actions can lead to big change. Today, at 17-years-old, she has emerged as an activist, impassioned public speaker and author. Hannah uses her voice and platform to motivate and empower people of all ages to identify their passion and take action for a better world. “I believe we all have the capacity and responsibility to create change. I don’t care how old you are, how young you are, where you live or how much money you have. The ability to create change does not discriminate; it’s in everyone.” — Hannah Alper. Just as Hannah does not limit herself to one issue or platform, she is not bound geographically. While she calls Toronto home, she has travelled across North America over 35 WE Day shows and delivered keynote presentations at schools, conferences and corporations. Her passion for community and desire to be fully engaged drew her to spend time in Kenya with ME to WE and Costa Rica with National Geographic. Nothing inspires Hannah more than her peers who answer their own calls to action, and she surrounded herself with them as she participated in the Teen Vogue Summits in Los Angeles and New York City. In November 2017, Hannah released her book, Momentus: Small Acts, Big Change, based on her conviction that one person, one action, one moment can make a difference. Through sharing her own journey and stories from her role models, Hannah provides tangible, real-life, and current examples that back up this idea. This book is more than a “how-to” guide; it gets to the heart of what sparks people to create change. Momentus features 19 exclusive interviews with activists, youth change-makers, and celebrities such as Malala Yousafzai (Nobel Peace Prize Winner), Lilly Singh a.k.a. Superwoman (YouTube Creator and author), and Blake Mycoskie (Founder and Chief Shoe Giver, TOMS), the book highlights practical examples of the power of positive change in the world, whether large or small. Hannah lives just outside Toronto with her parents and two dogs and is a local public school student. You can find her sipping on frozen hot chocolates with her friends at the local cafe or on Twitter and Instagram; she’s @ThatHannahAlper. ------ Want access to the free High Performing Student minicourse? ->www.samdemma.com/hps-minicourse Want to win $500?

Of all the things that 2020 has brought forth, who possibly could have predicted that we would have seen one’s of Canada’s brightest stars, WE Charity, under a microscope. My next guest had a pretty good idea back in 2012 when she wrote her Masters thesis "Pomp and Circumstance: Communication Strategy, Charitainment and the Media Event in the Humanitarian Context" focusing on the communication strategies of WE Day, which won the Best Civil Society Thesis award in 2012 in Sweden. When WE Charity became a headline for all the wrong reasons this summer after the Liberal party awarded WE the administration of a payment program for the Canada Student Service Grant Program, a $900 million volunteer program, the opposition quickly raised questions about ties to the Trudeau family,. My next guest tweeted out her thesis and it instantly went viral. Meet June Findlay, a social media creative strategist based in Toronto and tipper of sacred cows.

Did you know that Conquer Local has its very own Digital Marketing Academy? It's a game-changer because the SaaS industry changes under our feet. We have Jacqueline Cook ( https://www.linkedin.com/in/jacquelinecook1/ ) (Jackie), Chief Strategy Officer at Vendasta ( https://www.vendasta.com/ ) , on the podcast to discuss the strategy behind the Conquer Local Academy. ( https://www.conquerlocal.com/academy/ ) After some research and listening to digital marketing agencies and entrepreneurs from different areas of the world, there was a realization that there was a need in the space for a digital marketing academy. It needed to be all-encompassing of various digital solutions that intertwine frequently. The Academy is built into a culture that embraces a community that agencies and entrepreneurs can grow and learn in. People learn differently; some learn by reading about it, and some want to watch videos at 2 am. The Academy was created to accommodate different learners in the way they want to learn, and on their time. She works with the CEO to shape Vendasta's long term strategy and to align both the culture, organizational design, and company metrics toward those long-term objectives. Jacqueline works across a number of diverse teams to execute cross-functional initiatives, collect and share key customer insights, and test new initiatives to drive Vendasta's growth levers. She is also the General Manager of the of Vendasta's high-growth mid-market customer segment, which currently contributes over half of the company's revenue and includes marketing, sales, success, support, and four product teams. Most recently, Jacqueline played a major role in Vendasta's $40M growth funding round, which marks the single largest technology investment in the prairies since the Canadian Venture Capital Private Equity Association (CVCA) started collecting data in 2013. Jacqueline is an alumnus of The Next 36 Entrepreneurial Institute, Canada's premier entrepreneurial leadership initiative. During the program, she co-founded and was CEO of Triumf Mobile Rewards: a tablet and Smartphone-based platform for small and medium-sized businesses to customize their own loyalty rewards programs. She has been a speaker at events such as Tejo Talks, sponsored by Canada's Embassy to Portugal as part of Web Summit, TEDx UofS and WE DAY, and has represented Canada at the 2010 G8 and G20 Summits, the 2010 APEC Summit in Japan, and at the 2011 G20 Young Entrepreneur Summit in France. Jacqueline has been a recipient of CBC Saskatchewan's Future 40 under 40 and a YWCA Women of Distinction Award and serves on the board of Co.Labs, Saskatchewan's first technology incubator. She was recently named as one of Betakit's Canadian women in tech worth watching. Keep the conversations going in the Conquer Local Community ( https://www.conquerlocal.com/community/ ).

“You are more than your circumstances. You are bigger than that.” - Mpumi Noviba Her name ‘Nompumelelo' is a Zulu name that means ‘success'. Oprah Winfrey said of her: “She's going to be a powerhouse. I expect that she'll end up being in a major political role in South Africa in the years to come, or even president.” Mpumi Nobiva was born into abject poverty – her family lived on less than $3 a day. Her mother had Mpumi when she was 17 years old. She never knew her father – he left soon after her birth. At 9 years old, Mpumi was orphaned when her mother died because of complications from HIV/AIDS. Mpumi's mother had been forced to resort to prostitution to raise money to look after her young child. When Mpumi was 21 years old, a friend of her mother shared with her the story of how her mother contracted HIV – she had an unprotected sexual encounter with a man who promised her 300 Rands. Mpumi's mother used the 300 Rands – which is less than $20 – to buy Mpumi school shoes. "I share her story with pride. I talk about how proud I am to be her child -- the one person I know who at 25 could own up to her reality and share it in such a compassionate way. You've got to be really special to see that far." - Mpumi Noviba The woman who Mpumi calls her greatest inspiration – her grandmother, or Gogo as she calls her – stepped in to raise Mpumi. Mpumi's grandmother was strict with her, fearing that she might fall prey to their circumstances. Mpumi was made to study hard, and to attend church, which is where she learned to speak English. In 2007 Mpumi was accepted into the inaugural class of the Oprah Winfrey Leadership Academy for Girls in South Africa. This opportunity was quite literally life-changing. Mpumi is now a global speaker and communications strategist. She has spoken around the world, including speaking at the White House; and she shared her story in front of more than 16,000 people at WE Day in Los Angeles. "I have no sense of shame or sense of feeling less than, because that's what I've come from. I understand that it didn't happen to me, it happened for me. That's the difference -- it happened for me." - Mpumi Noviba Mpumi has also now started an initiative called #ShareYourStoryAfrica focused on raising awareness and providing education related to domestic violence and HIV/AIDS in South Africa, especially as it affects young women and girls between the ages of 13 and 25. As NationBuilder's first ‘Leader in Residence', Mpumi is developing the digital infrastructure for Share Your Story Africa. Mpumi also sits on the Board of Directors of the Oprah Winfrey Leadership Academy for Girls. what you'll learn in this episode Why sharing her story is so important to Mpumi What it was like growing up in poverty, and how she has used that to her advantage What made her start the #ShareYourStory initiative Why she's launching a journal and intention program What the first book selection is for her new journal and intention program Who inspires Mpumi the most The greatest lessons she learned from her mother and grandmother What Mpumi's ‘I Am' is

All over the media this past year, it seems invisible illnesses, both for physical health and mental health, are finally getting the visible recognition they deserve. We’re so lucky our first guest is Canadian motivational speaker, 20-year-old Ashley Rose Murphy.

Living with one of the most universally-known invisible illnesses, Ashley speaks to thousands of youth at WE Day and the United Nations, breaking misconceptions about living with HIV and improving the way people associate HIV/AIDS with the youth population. In this episode, Ashley joins the chat show to talk about how she’s become a rebel game-changer, ways to help others talk about illness and disability, sharing her life playlist of tips and tricks to living with invisible illness, and play a few games that’ll definitely bring some laughs while opening minds.

Her name Nompumelelo is a Zulu name that means ‘success'. Oprah Winfrey said of her: “She's going to be a powerhouse. I expect that she'll end up being in a major political role in South Africa in the years to come, or even president.” She was born into abject poverty – her family lived on less than $3 a day. Her mother had Mpumi when she was 17 years old. She never knew her father – he left soon after her birth. At 9 years old, Mpumi was orphaned when her mother died because of complications from HIV/AIDS. Mpumi's mother had been forced to resort to prostitution to raise money to look after her young child. When Mpumi was 21 years old, a friend of her mother shared with her the story of how her mother contracted HIV – she had an unprotected sexual encounter with a man who promised her 300 Rands. 300 Rands which she used to buy Mpumi school shoes. The woman who Mpumi calls her greatest inspiration – her grandmother, or Gogo as she calls her – stepped in to raise Mpumi. Mpumi's grandmother was strict, fearing that she might fall prey to their circumstances. She was made to study hard, and to attend church, which is where she learned to speak English. In 2007 Mpumi was accepted into the inaugural class of the Oprah Winfrey Leadership Academy for Girls in South Africa. This opportunity was quite literally life-changing. Mpumi is now a global speaker and communications strategist. She has spoken around the world, including speaking at the White House; and sharing her story in front of more than 16,000 at WE Day in Los Angeles. She has also now started an initiative called #ShareYourStory focused on raising awareness and providing education related to domestic violence and HIV/AIDS in South Africa, especially as it affects young women and girls between the ages of 13 and 25. As NationBuilder's first ‘Leader in Residence', Mpumi is developing the digital infrastructure for Share Your Story Africa. Mpumi also sits on the Board of Directors of the Oprah Winfrey Leadership Academy for Girls. WHAT YOU'LL LEARN IN THIS INTERVIEW Why sharing her story is so important to Mpumi What it was like growing up in poverty, and how she has used that to her advantage What made her start the #ShareYourStory initiative Why she's launching a journal and intention program What the first book selection is for her new journal and intention program Who inspires Mpumi the most The greatest lessons she learned from her mother and grandmother What Mpumi's ‘I Am' is INTERVIEW LINKS Instagram: @mpumi_nobia Twitter: @Mpumi_Nobiva Website: Mpumi Nobiva Website Facebook: Mpumi on Facebook LinkedIn: Mpumi on LinkedIn YouTube: Mpumi on YouTube

Collaboration over Adversarial Relations Introducing George Chmael II and Council Fire It is always great to work in a collaborative environment but sometimes there is a belief that such environments cannot be achieved. So often instead of thinking of ways that everyone can work in concert, groups take an adversarial stance where the result makes one group a winner and another the loser. Today's guest believes that more often than not and even in contested situations there is still a way to work together to achieve a result that everyone can be happy with. George Chmael II is the president and chief sustainability officer at Council Fire, a Maryland based small sustainability consultancy, which has been running for 17 years and works on projects all over the world. Council Fire operates at the intersection of environmental, economic, and social issues and uses an approach of collaboration because, “together we are smarter than any one of us alone.” A great example of their collaborative approach is when they were working with the port of Baltimore and the environmental impacts of maintaining a 128-mile “highway” between the city and the Chesapeake Bay. Instead of an us versus them mentality in regards to the port and environmentalists, George and his group engaged stakeholders, which led to greater results for all those involved including costing taxpayers $125 million less than they would have if they had taken the adversarial route. Check out this episode of the Boiling Point to learn more and to see how this approach could work for you in the future. In this episode Dave tells us about his experience as a chaperone at We Day. We learn about how Greg and George worked collaboratively to bring “The Millennial Dream” to some US showings. We learn about the work that Council Fire does in the sustainability space. George tells us how things have changed in the world of sustainability from when he started his company 17 years ago. We hear why collaboration is so important with the work that George does. George also tells us why his training as a lawyer helps him in his work today. We hear of a great example of his work in relation to the port of Baltimore and the great spinoffs that came from it. Dave talks about how being collaborative can be tough and that it takes a high degree of cooperation, trust, and time. George tells us that credibility does not flow from words but from action.
