Violence against children and a family pet is featured.On Mother’s Day 2008, Barbara Freiberg was looking forward to receiving a call from her daughter, Lisa. Lisa was a mom herself—she had a son, Zachary, 7, and 2-year-old Heather Savannah—and Mother’s Day was always a special day for Lisa and Barbara. When Lisa failed to call her mother that Sunday, Barbara decided to go to Lisa’s house Monday. What Barbara found, no mother should ever see.Looking for our missing episodes?

“In some sense, Steve, we’re all getting newer every day. Because evolution is getting newer every day, and we are all incarnating the impulse of evolution as who we are. And it comes into each of us uniquely, but it’s still part of the 13.7 billion-year trajectory of higher consciousness, greater freedom, more complex loving order.” —Barbara Marx Hubbard These are the inspirational words world-renowned visionary and best-selling author Barbara Marx Hubbard shared with Steve Farrell, Worldwide Executive Director of Humanity’s Team, in this special Global Oneness Summit rebroadcast just one year before Barbara yielded the form. Barbara goes on to say that when we listen to the deepest part of ourselves—sometimes referred to as that part “within”— and say “yes” to our own unique vocation, we are actually saying yes to the vocation embedded in that evolutionary impulse. What Barbara refers to as “impulse” is more than that which is limited to a personal vocation. She tells us, “It’s a life purpose that comes from Source that has the Divine Impulse of the Self-organizing Universe you’re saying yes to.” When you tune in to that impulse, you’ll actually feel it turning on more than just your personal desire for vocation and purpose. “It’s turning on your part in the life pattern of what’s emerging for evolution itself.” I invite you to listen to our podcast, "This Is Our Time to Say Yes" to hear Barbara and Steve talk more about… The new evolutionary story How evolution increases consciousness and freedom Punctuated equilibrium The Universal Self Your Deepest Heart’s Desire And more! “...Your deepest heart’s desire is that part of the God-Self that wants to be expressed as you and only you,” says Barbara.

Barbara Res, an engineer, author of “All Alone on the 68th Floor”, and former Vice President at the Trump Organization, joins us on this episode of the This is a Man’s World, She Who Dares Wins podcast. Barbara has truly blazed her own trail in the construction industry, the only woman in her electrical engineering program in college and one of the few women working on the Grand Hyatt construction project in New York City when it was being built. Donald Trump met her during her time working on that project and he liked her tenacity and drive so much that he hired her to work for him on the construction of Trump Tower. She certainly experienced her fair share of harassment and prejudice from men around her, but she believes that it was all worth it to pave the way for the women that would come behind her in the industry. She learned to choose her battles and know when it was worth standing up for herself as opposed to when a situation was best ignored. While she wishes it didn’t have to be this way, she has seen the progress in the industry over the past nearly 4 decades and she sees a bright future for women entering the trades. Barbara has encountered some unexpected advocates for her and other women in engineering and construction along the way and she is glad that society is opening up to welcome women into more male-dominated professions. Time Stamps: 1:18 – Michelle and Barbara met at the Women in Construction event. 2:30 – Barbara’s educational journey. 4:58 – How Barbara came to be hired by Donald Trump. 7:31 – How the industry has progressed since Barbara first entered it. 11:50 – Michelle’s story of recent situations she has faced. 17:26 – Barbara provides advice for young women entering the industry. 23:32 – Is it ok to want to be liked? 25:59 – Barbara’s perspective of men championing careers for women. 33:34 – What does Barbara think of quotas? 34:52 – Can you be a mom and work in construction? 41:43 – Having the right perspective when working as a woman in construction. 44:15 – What Barbara is currently working on. 46:12 – Advice for women considering jobs in the construction industry. Key Quotes: “The industry has certainly progressed, especially in terms of the law.” “People don’t want women doing so-called ‘men’s work.’” “You have to pick your spot. You might have to be a martyr but you also may be able to stand up for yourself.” “At the end of the day, you have to respect yourself.” “Whatever happens, it is not your fault.” “Not everybody needs to be a CEO, but you need to know your capabilities.” “If you make people happy, you’ll get more out of them.” Connect with Barbara: https://www.amazon.com/All-Alone-68th-Floor-Construction/dp/1523712562 Connect with us: https://www.patreon.com/Thisisamansworld https://thisisamansworld.co.uk/ https://www.facebook.com/Thisisamansworlduk/ https://twitter.com/AMansWorldUK https://www.instagram.com/thisisamansworlduk/ https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCADDdf-5TgSb3VZJ6XcSAWg?view_as=subscriber michelle@thisisamansworld.co.uk --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/shewhodareswins/message
Whether you’re still in fashion school, or you’re looking toward your next opportunity, you’re probably wondering how to stand out in your fashion career. In such a competitive industry, it can feel like an uphill battle to even get noticed by fashion hiring managers among stiff competition. On this episode, we talk to London designer Barbara Houghton. With over 15 years of experience in the fashion industry, Barbara has been on both ends of the hiring process, and she wants to share what she’s learned about standing out in fashion and always getting the job! In the interview (which you’ll love), we will cover: Important things to look for when choosing a fashion school--because not all programs do this! The downside to working for high-end brands early in your career What Barbara did before the interview for her first job to give herself an edge (it’s something you should definitely be doing, too!) How Barbara survived her first job in London, and the realities of starting your fashion career in a major city The super creative way Barbara scored her next job as a fashion designer Her experience in a super creative role… and why she decided to leave it How she transitioned to working for a brand she really loves As a hiring manager, the top things she looks for when interviewing potential hires And more! EVOLVING SUCCESS From landing her first job in the fashion industry before she even finished fashion school, to working as a senior designer for a major supplier, UK fashion designer Barbara Houghton knows what it takes to get noticed by employers in the fashion industry. Over the course of her career, Barbara has gone from an assistant job she compares to The Devil Wears Prada to leading a division for one of the biggest suppliers of UK highstreet fashion. Through creativity and an intelligent and intentional approach to the job market, Barbara has been able to consistently move forward in her career. She has managed to always land that next great opportunity as her goals and desires have evolved. BREAKING IN Barbara still recalls feeling lucky to have found a job in fashion starting right after graduation (and she tells us how she did it!). Barbara didn’t have the advantage of her family paying for her education. So when she graduated from fashion school, she had to begin repaying her loans while surviving in London on a shoestring salary. That first job was incredibly demanding, with long hours and little reward. But putting in her time and giving 100% to that entry level position was worth it--when she was ready to move on, she was told she was very employable, because she “had worked in one of the hardest places there is to work.” MAKING OPPORTUNITIES COUNT Barbara happily moved on to bigger and better things, from creating collections start to finish for a highstreet boutique, to spotting trends for Miss Selfridge. She traveled the world as a freelance fashion designer for brands like New Look, Tesco, and Joy, before moving on to building and running a successful department for a major highstreet supplier. Barbara’s hard work and creative moves have taken her far in her fashion career. With a little determination and Barbara’s smart approach to job success, you too can stand out, upgrade your fashion career, and score the opportunity you’ve been dreaming of!

Barbara Corcoran doesn’t look far past the family tree for inspiration. While many entrepreneurs seek seasoned businesspeople to learn from, Corcoran’s mentor was her mother, not because her mother managed a company—she didn’t—but because she managed a family. “She ran our little, tiny two-bedroom flat like a corporation,” Corcoran recalls. Everything was organized, and everything had a system. Her mother did a phenomenal job motivating each of the children, helping them do what they did best. “If she had been in business, she would’ve been a tycoon,” Corcoran says. “I wouldn’t have wanted to compete with her.” Common sense was one of her mother’s virtues, and it’s a trait that Corcoran says is vital in business. “I think you have to trust your natural instinct,” she says to aspiring entrepreneurs. Business is about street smarts. It’s not something you can learn in a classroom — you have to do it. That’s exactly what she has done. Corcoran’s resume includes several businesses and millions of dollars, and she’s now a “shark” investor on ABC’s popular Shark Tank TV series. She started young. “I had a flower-of-the-week club when I was in college that failed miserably,” she says. “It was good for a while and then it failed. How did I get that job? I just invented it.” She later founded two real estate companies, including the Corcoran Group, which she started with a $1,000 loan and ultimately sold for $66 million. Corcoran has channeled her experience into her role as an investor on Shark Tank, a reality TV competition that pits entrepreneurs against each other in a contest to pitch their ideas and get big funding. The show’s run includes six seasons, and she’s been along for the whole ride. In this interview you will learn: - Barbara's story on how she rose to success - The critical elements she believes it takes to become a successful entrepreneur - A super productivity hack to get the most of your day - Real estate investing tips - What it takes to get your idea funded - What Barbara looks for in an entrepreneur and the companies she invests in - & Much more I Need Your Help!
