Stacey Swampy was born in Maskwacis, Alberta. When he was 13 years old, his father died and he entered, what would become, 30 years inside the system – moving from foster homes to group homes to the young offenders systems and finally to the provincial correctional centre and federal penitentiary. When Stacey realized that he might die within this system he decided it was time to make changes and turned to the Elders who worked there to help him. Since then Stacey has become sober, embraced Indigenous culture and practices, graduated with a university degree and has worked tirelessly to help people get out of the system. Stacey has worked for Str8Up, Micah Mission and is currently back at the Saskatoon Correctional Centre, this time working as an Elder. In our conversation with Stacey he talked about the value of learning his own story and about the importance of forgiveness, and how it is an essential step for reconciliation to truly take place. He explains throughout his conversation with us that not only do we have to forgive those who have hurt us, but we must also forgive ourselves. Stacey puts reconciliation within a problem-solving framework. He explained how the teachings from the elders taught him to let go of all the negative energy he was holding onto and finally move forward in a positive and healthy direction. “The way reconciliation is, is we have to forgive each other before we can move on and start to heal. If we can’t forgive people, then we’re still stuck in a part of the problems not the solutions.” Ben Borne and I invited Stacey to have a conversation around these five questions: 1. What is your personal understanding of reconciliation? 2. What experiences have led you to this understanding? 3. Why do you feel reconciliation is important? 4. Does forgiveness have a role in reconciliation? Why or why not? 5. How would you invite people into the reconciliation journey? Then we recorded his reflections. ***************************************************** Additional resources to explore: Str8Up Writing your Life Story Teaching by the Medicine Wheel Emotional Intelligence Toolkit Mennonite Central Committee Saskatchewan ***************************************************** Reconcile: Everyday Conversations is a project of Mennonite Central Committee Saskatchewan aimed at facilitating conversations among Canadians around our role in reconciliation.

East Coast Radio — Galleria Mall has been giving listeners a chance to win a share of R50,000 with their ‘Pay It Forward’ campaign.for almost four weeks - for a friend, a family member or someone in their community who is in need. This is a truly heart-warming campaign. Some of the winners who were rewarded with the spend at the mall really touched our hearts. The team at Galleria Mall have been so gracious as to give us R14.000 (R7,000 each) to pay forward to someone we know personally. For Stacey, the person she wanted to nominate is a woman whom has become her honorary mother in KZN. Her name is Makhosi. When Stacey first moved down to Durban from Johannesburg, she was without a home and did not know a lot of people in the province outside of work. When she finally found a place to settle in, she met Makhosi, the two women hit it off instantly. Makhosi has become Stacey's confidante and helps her keep sane. Makhosi has had a rough couple of weeks with only being able to work remotely because of COVID-19 regulations. She also recently had a break in at her home, which devastated her and so this money would go a long way in helping her. A pull on the heart strings: Stacey and JSbu 'Pay it Forward' to two deserving women

The Wonder Women In Science campaign celebrates female scientists from UKZN's College of Agriculture, Engineering and Science. This years event will be happening virtually because of the COVID-19 pandemic. The Wonder Women In Science webinar will take place on the 27 August 2020, from 10 am until 12 pm.

East Coast Radio — As part of her business, 'Silo Brides', which hires and sells traditional wedding outfits for brides-to-be of different cultures, Londiwe has recently launched an extension of this which she calls the #MakotiBootCamp. #MakotiBootCamp has been gaining a lot of media attention which ordinarily would be great for a local business and entrepreneur, but some of the attention has been with regards to why a boot camp is necessary for a bride-to-be. Some people have also questioned whether this boot camp is sexist. When Stacey and JSbu first saw the #MakotiBootCamp poster, they were intrigued and curious. JSbu immediately questioned whether Londiwe and her team would also be running a #MkwenyanaBootcamp, which would be for grooms.
In this week’s episode I chat to Stacey June about her fertility journey and homebirth. When Stacey first met her husband, Ben, he was open about his experience with pancreatic cancer and his wishes to become a father. Stacey knew that their journey to parenthood would be assisted but it was a non-issue for her; she knew Ben was the one and they started their first IUI treatment within nine months of meeting. Stacey talks from the heart about assisted conception, conscious birth preparation and her empowering birth experience.

Stacey and her Fiance, Matt, have been together for two years, but something is off with Matt. When Stacey caught him talking to someone on the phone at two in the morning he quickly hung up. Could this be a suspicious sign of cheating? Or is this just a random phone call with tech support? Let's investigate on Fiance Friday!
We're often asked at BU what the difference is between psychology, psychotherapy, counselling and coaching are. Our belief is that each approach serves people differently depending on where they're at in their wellbeing and personal development journey. They all have value and the key is to ensure the right approach is used with the right people at the right time. This is a key component of Stacey Clarke's story. When Stacey first connected with BU she had already been doing amazing work with a counsellor for years. However, she was reaching the point where she felt counselling was no longer helping her grow and began to think that maybe it was no longer the best approach for her. Since then Stacey has completed our 6 month Confidence & Purpose Coaching program, enrolled in our Alumni Program and is now completing her 12 month Impact & Leadership Coaching program to learn how to make a positive impact in the lives of those around her. Over that time Stacey has grown in leaps and bounds but has also definitely faced her fair share of hurdles and obstacles. If you're someone who is unsure of what approach will most serve you when it comes to your wellbeing and personal development journey then make sure you check this episode out.

Some of our best and most valuable business comes from a referral, but how do you cultivate it and, most importantly, repeat it? Today’s show is all about how to create scalable and repeatable referrals through systems. Stacey Brown Randall is a three-time Entrepreneur, author of Generating Business Referrals Without Asking, and the host of the Roadmap to Grow Your Business podcast! Stacey has taught her ‘no-asking’ referral strategy to hundreds of clients and audiences all over the world. When Stacey gave her notice to leave Corporate America to work with a husband & wife team, she did not realize she was four weeks pregnant at the time. After working with them for about 8-9 months, her client actually encouraged her to start her own business. And, she did it! But after five years, she was mentally exhausted and had to throw in the towel. How can you apply a strong referral strategy in your business without being promotional and ‘gimmicky’? When Stacey goes into companies of all sizes, she actually has to undo a lot of old myths about networking and referrals. A lot of companies provide an incentivized referral program, but in a lot of cases, that just doesn’t work. When Stacey works with companies, she has them go through an exercise where they craft their own referral plan. In this, you identify who your referral sources are, you create a plan on how to build meaningful and memorable connections with your referral sources, and most importantly, you thank and acknowledge your customers for their referral!

When you bring value to customers and care for your clients, you've taken an important first step toward generating business referrals… without asking. Stacey Brown Randall considers herself a contrarian in the sales world, because she believes that if you're asking for referrals, you're doing it wrong. She helps small business owners and solopreneurs generate referrals and she dispels myths about referrals. She didn't set out to focus on referrals, but after her first business failed, she discovered that business owners have to figure out how to touch business development every day. You also have to figure out the ways in which you're willing to do it. TONS OF OPTIONS Sellers have countless options for bringing in clients and prospects to their pipelines, but they have to be options that the sellers are willing to do day-in, day-out. When her own business failed, she asked herself what went wrong. Although there was more than one mistake along the way, she realized that she never figured out how to fill her pipeline consistently. She never found an activity she was willing to do on a regular basis. She researched and found that referrals offer an amazing way to bring in clients, and they're often quicker to close. They also trust you before they ever meet you, and they are less price sensitive. Everything about referrals is just better. REFERRAL PIECE Stacey was determined to figure out the referral piece when she launched her second business, but all the information she could find said you had to ask for referrals. To her, asking for a referral felt like a second-cousin to a cold call. She didn't want to do it. In order to help her second business be successful, she decided to figure out how to generate referrals without asking. Once she did that, she moved into teaching other people how to succeed in the same way. REFERRAL MISTAKES Referrals are not about you. If you ask for them, or make them part of your marketing plan and develop promotions around them, you're making the referrals about you. Stacey discovered that the sales process has three buckets: prospecting activities, marketing activities, and referral activities. What we do to generate referrals looks different than what we do compared to prospecting and marketing. When I'm in prospecting mode, I'm looking for someone who will say yes within 30 days. With marketing, it's a little more long-term but there is always an ultimate mindset. Referrals, however, require different activities and a different mindset. The biggest mistake people make is treating their referral process like part of the prospecting effort. Or, they think about it like marketing and make it promotional and gimmicky. GREAT WORK If you're going to hand off the client at some point, you have to make sure it's a great process and great client experience. Nobody refers to crappy work and no one refers a choppy customer experience. That's a foundational piece, and none of these suggestions will work if you aren't referrable. You must do the things that make people want to refer you. The most important person in a referral process isn't you and it isn't your prospect; it's your referral source. You must understand who is referring you. ACTION STEPS Begin by pulling out your list of clients, at least from the last two years, and figure out how those clients learned about you. (Pull data from as many years as you're willing to do the work for.) You may have this information in your CRM, or you may have to do some digging. Determine who those people are that already referred you in the past, and begin there. You'll likely realize that you don't have that many, and you'll probably discover that you haven't been intentional about building relationships with those people. Figure out what you're doing to take care of your referral sources. Because sellers often get paid on commission, it's tempting to move quickly from one client to the next. Sometimes sellers don't recognize that it's a lot of work to constantly seek the next big win. Instead, sellers can spend their time doing activities they enjoy doing for people who know that they truly care. Then, the sellers can watch clients drop in their laps. If you do the right kind of work at the right time for the right people in the right way, they will fill up your pipelines for you. #Pipeline CLICK TO TWEET It saves a tremendous amount of time and money. YOUR JOB No one wakes up in the morning thinking about ways to make your job easier. They aren't thinking about how they can refer you. Your job is to make sure that you're doing outreach to referral sources and that you're being memorable and meaningful. You want to use the right referral seed planting language so that you move into their subconscious. When you take care of people, they naturally want to take care of you back. We want to be the person who is constantly giving to them so they think about us in a different way. When an opportunity arises, we want them thinking about us. It's all about how we take care of people. TOP OF MIND When you know who your referral sources are and you focus on them, you start to notice and develop patterns about those sources. When Stacey was a business and productivity coach, she noticed that her niche happened to be working parents. Their world was her world. Her previous business failure gave her a unique perspective she could share. She initiated a touchpoint that included “off-guard holidays.” In order to be meaningful, she sent Mother's Day and Father's Day gifts to her top referral sources. She sent a Wonder Woman water bottle to the moms reminding them that they are heroes. It didn't include Stacey's logo and it wasn't about her. It was about her client. Those clients have never forgotten who sent that bottle. They were seen and recognized. That effort can't be a one-and-done. The touch points must accumulate over time. Clients will always think about you in return when you've thought about them first. Anything you do must be all about them. PLANTING SEEDS Begin by using the word referral when you're talking to your clients. When someone sends you someone, send them a hand-written thank you note that thanks the referrer by name. It's noticeable because it's a thank you note that you took time to write. Then, when people ask how your business is going, use the opportunity to plant a referral seed. Consider this: “You know, I on-boarded three new clients last week who were referred to me. I love receiving referrals because it tells me I'm doing something right with my business.” Be honest, but plant the idea of referral. The seed may not always fall on fertile soil, but eventually, it will. Aim for the 30 percent who will actually refer you. Like the other steps, it must be a consistent effort that builds on itself. We're seeking to create a habit for how our clients will behave. “GENERATING BUSINESS REFERRALS…WITHOUT ASKING” EPISODE RESOURCES You can connect with Stacey at staceybrownrandall.com where you can figure out your skill level at generating referrals by taking her Referral Ninja Quiz.

Ready For Takeoff - Turn Your Aviation Passion Into A Career
Aviation has been a major part of Stacey Banks' family for three generations. Inspired by her uncle, an American Airlines pilot, Stacey's father became an Air Force pilot, flying F-4s in Vietnam, then flying for United Airlines. He took Stacey up on numerous civilian flights when he was delivering cargo and checks when she was a toddler. When Stacey was a teenager, she started taking flying lessons, vowing that her father would be her first passenger once she obtained her Private Pilot certificate. Achieving that goal came under enormous pressure when her father was diagnosed with terminal cancer. Finally, when she earned her ticket, her father was permitted to leave the hospital to accompany her on her most memorable flight. After her father passed away, Stacey chose to remain closer to home to help her mother, and attended Metropolitan State University of Denver, majoring in Aviation. During her internship at American Airlines, she formed her goal to be a pilot for American. She worked her way up through the piloting ranks, and finally was hired by American. During her journey, she suffered serious potentially career-ending injuries, and overcame numerous obstacles to achieve her dream.

On this episode of Podcasting Smarter, I am joined by Stacey Taylor, a veteran podcaster from Birmingham, England who started podcasting back in 2007 when she worked at the world's most boring job. She is the host of Stacey's Pop Culture Parlour and Podcast On A Half Shell where she talks nerdy about comics, films, TV shows, books, video games, and of course the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles. We have lots of fun nerding-out on podcasting. Stacey's Podcasting Smarter Tips: Don't be surprised when people care about what you have to say. When Stacey's first podcast came to an end, she thought that was the end of her podcasting until some listeners encouraged her to start another one. Podcasting helps you find other people who care about the same things you do. Podcasting has given her the confidence to reach out to her heroes and to really get to know them by inviting them on her podcast. Stacey enjoys a large social circle of people from all over the world that is a direct result of her podcast. Listen back to your episodes as a listener without worrying about the stresses of recording and editing. It's a great way to improve your podcasting skills. She prefers podcasts with more than one host, but only when they have a chemistry, and don't talk over top of each other. She wants to feel enthusiasm and passion from podcast hosts. Know your niche, and carve out your unique space within it. Stacy has grown her audience by being a guest on other podcasts and tapping into their listeners. Advice to new podcasters: Don't expect a bajillion downloads right away or you will set yourself up for failure. Pay attention to and serve your core audience. She empathises with her guest's need to feel comfortable. Days before recording, she asks if there is anything they need, or of they have any questions. She also makes sure to prep them thoroughly about the podcast topic and flow, so they can relax and have fun with her. Prep, prep and more prep for your interviews. Small audiences can reap massive rewards. A small, but enthusiastic audience can open doors, give you terrific engagement, and a very rewarding podcasting experience.
