Inclusive Behaviors and Language In this episode, herdacious host Lorelei chats with Amber Briggle about implementing inclusive behaviors and non-exclusionary language into the workplace. We might be familiar with increasingly common inclusive practices like offering our preferred pronouns or using gender-neutral language; but, what more can we do to promote non-discriminatory culture in the workplace? While Amber walks us through the endless possibilities, we quickly realize that the better question to ask is: what can't we do? As a small business owner and parent to a transgender child, Amber teaches us that although conscious and unconscious discriminatory behavior often pervade the workplace, uprooting these behaviors is well within reach. From breaking the habit of assuming gender and sexuality to rewriting parental leave policies, Amber emphasizes that being mindful of inclusivity through our interactions benefits the well-being of individuals and businesses alike. Although these actions appear slight, they are meaningful to people who are constantly excluded from the heteronormative mainstream. Being seen and valued is a privilege easily taken for granted, so let's pay it forward to everyone of all identities!Host: Lorelei GonzalezCo-host: Amber Briggle, CMTAmber Briggle (she/her) is an activist, speaker, writers, and self-described “mamabear” of a transgender child. Amber is internationally recognized for her work involving LGBTQ advocacy, is a founding member and former national co-chair of the Human Rights Campaign's “Parents for Transgender Equality Council” and has been previously nominated by the Dallas Morning News as “Texan of the Year.” Mostly, though, she's “just a mom” in the Dallas area who loves both of her kids unconditionally.Things you will learn in this episode (chapter markers available):  What is inclusive behavior? 3:40Behavior conscious examples 5:15Workplace policies 13:50Internal advocacy 18:37You can't afford discrimination (metaphorically & literally) 20:15From PRIDE month to PRIDE year 23:25Femme fact: Onna-Bugeisha Warriors 27:20Resources mentioned in this episode:  Texas Competes (website) HRC Corporate Equality Index (website)Episode sponsors:  HERdacity   Moonray  Looking for additional resources on this topic?

Show Number #1: (11:00AM – 12:00PM PST) (2:00-3:00PM EST)Show Theme: Deciding Who You Are Show Title: When You Decide Who You Are You Can Live Full OutEpisode: 2021.7.11 The Living Full Out Show with Nancy Solari encourages you to decide who you are. Maybe you’re not exactly where you want to be in your career or in your relationship. Perhaps you’re in an environment that is draining your spirit. By giving yourself positive encouragement and necessary support, you can make life choices that make you feel empowered. Our first caller, Bubune, feels torn between options about his future, especially because he feels pulled toward t-shirt designing. Nancy advises him to put his favorite skills first and to surround himself with positivity. Tune in to hear how making the right choices with your career path can help you feel more like yourself. Our inspirational guest, Amber Miller, became alcohol dependent at the age of 16 after watching both of her parents struggle with addiction. Amber’s mom couldn’t escape the pull of alcoholism, and she passed away at the age of 44 before Amber could get her professional help. While Amber wanted to quit at this point, she had kept drinking to ease the grieving process. However, ten years later, Amber met with an old friend who was struggling with alcoholism, and Amber saw that as a wake-up call to get sober. Amber then created the Facebook Group, "A Life Not Wasted" to encourage people to be who they're meant to be. Listen in to hear how Amber’s choice to live life by her own terms helped her regain control. Our final caller, Claire, has been experiencing burnout in college. Nancy reminds Claire that a quick walk or a short phone call with a friend can be an effective way to calm down and feel lighter. Tune in to hear how small choices throughout your day can keep you from being overwhelmed. Maybe you’re ready to break free from the habits that limit you. Perhaps fear is the only thing holding you back from getting you to where you want to go. Through making choices to reinvent yourself, you can live full out. Call us 800-333-0001

La Fabrica is a cycle cafe in the heart of Girona, merging the passions of its founders, husband and wife Christian and Amber, their vision and heart. Amber and Christian moved to Spain over 12 years ago when the promising career of a professional cyclist was offered to Christian in Girona. Starting as a Stagiaire, he was able to work his way to the top tier of the peloton, riding in races he had only dreamed of as a child. World Championships, The Classics in Europe to the National Championships in Canada… he was riding them all. While Amber was happy to support him, travel and live an enjoyable life of early retirement, she knew Christian’s cycling career was only going to be a long journey. So she decided to follow her dream of opening a a small, specialty coffee shop in their adopted hometown of Girona. After just 2 years, they were the owners of 3 incredible businesses at the forefront of cycling and coffee culture in Spain. In this episode you’ll hear the incredible story behind La Fabrica, Christian's professional cycling career, the journey to building Girona's only in-house coffee roasters, Espresso Mafia, and luxury bicycle shop, The Service Course. If you'd like to connect with Christian and Amber, you can follow them on Instagram @lafabricacafes or head to lafabricagirona.com.

In this episode, you'll hear Amber Freed's incredible story. She grew up in poverty and was able to escape a very challenging environment. When she was a teenager, she adopted her younger sisters when they were emancipated from their parents. Amber received numerous awards and scholarships to get her college education paid for but still worked three jobs in college to support her sisters.  Her story crossed my desk because of her son, Maxwell. While Amber was soaring in her career as an equity research analyst, she fulfilled a lifelong dream of becoming a mother. Her twins, Maxwell and Riley turned 3 this year and while her daughter RIley is healthy and thriving, she discovered that her son Maxwell has a rare genetic disorder called SLC6A1. It is so rare that it doesn't have a formal name and is labeled based on it's genetic location. This is the story of Amber Freed fighting like a mother. With Covid 19 affecting her son's treatment and progress, Amber's family is racing against the clock for Maxwell. Thank you for listening to her story and if you can, please get in touch with Amber or me directly to find out how to help.

As a child, Amber had a very rare illness that made the small blood vessels in her skin, joints, intestines, and kidneys inflamed and bleed. Amber was so ill her mother thought Amber was dying. But Amber survived, got married and had children and thrived...until 3 days after having her gallbladder removed, when she experienced horrendous pain, far worse than the pain of childbirth. Painkillers did little to stop the upper abdominal pain Amber was experiencing, and when her blood tests came back normal, doctors suggested Amber was faking it to get pain medication.  But the doctors weren’t listening to Amber’s reports that pain medications didn’t help, and sometimes made the horrific pain even worse. In spite of writhing in pain on the emergency room floor, Amber’s pain was often minimized or outright dismissed and she was labeled a drug seeker. While Amber’s illness turned out to be a rare complication of gallbladder surgery, her experience of pain being dismissed, or being accused of lying, or of having psychological problems, is not rare.  In fact, it is hard to find any one with a complex or rare disease that has not experienced a doctor or nurse accuse them of faking pain or psychologically manifesting illness. It is so common, that it is a reflection of the culture of arrogance among health care workers, especially physicians. It also explains why so many people with complex or rare diseases have medical PTSD. Few things are more traumatic than being incredibly sick, and by extension extremely vulnerable, and being accused of lying about it. This is why so many people distrust doctors.  Connect with Amber: Amber's channel: Spincter of Oddi is Real Youtube   Be a podcast patron Support Medical Error Interviews on Patreon by becoming a Patron for $2 / month for audio versions.  Premium Patrons get access to video versions of podcasts for $5 / month.   Be my Guest I am always looking for guests to share their medical error experiences so we help bring awareness and make patients safer.

Work hard. Train hard. Rest hard. I have been living with HIV since 1998. I was the first person living with HIV to compete at the triathlon world championships. Thanks to research and access to medications, HIV is not a problem in my life. I have been living with ME (myalgic encephalomyelitis) since 2012, and thanks in part to medical error, it is a big problem in my life. Counseling / Research I first became aware of the ubiquitousness of medical error during a decade of community based research working with the HIV Prevention Lab at Ryerson University, where I co-authored two research papers on a counseling intervention for people living with HIV, here and here.  Patient participants would often report varying degrees of medical neglect, error and harms as part of their counseling sessions. Patient Advocacy I am co-founder of the ME patient advocacy non-profit Millions Missing Canada, and on the Executive Committee of the Interdisciplinary Canadian Collaborative Myalgic Encephalomyelitis Research Network. I am also a patient advisor for Health Quality Ontario’s Patient and Family Advisory Council, and member of Patients for Patient Safety Canada. Medical Error Interviews podcast and vidcast emerged to give voice to victims, witnesses and participants in this hidden epidemic so we can create change toward a safer health care system. My golden retriever Gladys is a constant source of love and joy. I hope to be well enough again one day to race triathlons again. Or even shovel the snow off the sidewalk.
