Podcasts about woman working

In this episode of the Connected Leadership Podcast, Andy Lopata's guest is Jennifer McCollum, CEO of Catalyst, a NY-based nonprofit focused on accelerating progress for women in the workplace. Andy and Jennifer discuss issues of gender equality, professional relationships, and ally ship in the workplace. Jennifer McCollum is on a mission to create better leaders and workplaces by advancing women and promoting inclusivity. She's an accomplished CEO, speaker, and consultant, and the author of the new book "In Her Own Voice: A Woman's Rise to CEO." Using data and personal stories Jennifer sheds light on the unique challenges women face on their journey to leadership and providie actionable insights for aspiring leaders and organisations. Jennifer was the first female CEO at Linkage, a global leadership development firm dedicated to "Changing the Face of Leadership." Jennifer also shares insights from her journey to CEO, reflecting on the challenges faced by women in the corporate world, including pay inequity and the internalisation of external biases. She emphasises the importance of recognising one's value, advocating for oneself, and making bold requests to advance in leadership roles. The conversation examines the concept of ally ship, highlighting the role of sponsors in supporting women's advancement. Jennifer explains that while mentorship provides guidance and advice, sponsorship goes further by leveraging influence and networks to create opportunities for advancement. Andy and Jennifer explore the nuances of ally ship, emphasising the need for men to actively support women in the workplace. They discuss the importance of men recognising and amplifying women's contributions, as well as stepping up as sponsors and advocates. The importance of surrounding oneself with diverse talents and viewpoints to expand opportunities is another important area for discussion.  Andy and Jennifer emphasise the importance of creating a culture of inclusion and equity, measuring and ensuring fairness in talent systems, and gaining executive commitment to sponsorship and ally ship. Jennifer emphasises that these efforts not only benefit marginalised groups but also enhance the organisation as a whole. The episode concludes with a discussion on the importance of transparency and accessibility in formal sponsorship programmes, integrating them into the organisation's DNA for meaningful impact. Jennifer stresses the mutually beneficial nature of diversity, equity, and inclusion efforts, enriching not only the organisation but also the individuals involved.

Women's Health, Wisdom, and. . . WINE!  is a weekly conversation with practitioners, providers, patients, and healers about complex reproductive medicine and women's health challenges, the value of an integrative approach to these challenges, many of the women's health topics you're already thinking about but uncomfortable talking about, and my personal favorite. . . WINE!July is Bebe Moore Campbell National Minority Mental Health Awareness Month (also known as BIPOC Mental Health Month). Formally recognized in June 2008, BIPOC Mental Health Month was created to bring awareness to the unique struggles that underrepresented groups face in regard to mental illness in the US.Working at the intersection of racism and sexism, Black women face vast obstacles in the workplace that can lead to undue trauma all in the name of making a living and providing for their families. We are overrepresented in minimum-wage jobs and almost nonexistent in the C-suite.We face bias and systemic barriers in hiring and promotions.We get less support from managers and sponsorsWe are often the only Black person in the room.We face a greater variety of microaggressions and instances of everyday racism.And on top of all of this, we are paid less.The barriers Black women face aren't limited to the workplace. Right now, our resilience is being tested in unprecedented ways.As evidenced by the high morbidity and mortality rates of Black women, we are confronting over AND covert anti-Black sentiment in our healthcare system, namely in hospitals when we're the most vulnerable. We've been on the front lines of the fights for racial and gender equity for far too long. More than ever, it's important for everyone to be aware of what Black women are up against and understand how to be part of the solution.And still we rise.About Jacquie:Jacquie Abram is the international best-selling and award-winning author of Hush Money: How One Woman Proved Systemic Racism in Her Workplace and Kept Her Job. Before Jacquie began her journey as an author and DEI/Anti-racism Consultant, she had a career in higher education that spanned nearly two decades. Throughout her career, she experienced racism in the workplace,the kind of racism that is more covert, hidden, and harder to prove.  Hush Money is much more than just another book about systemic racism. For employees, it's a roadmap, a survival guide for fighting racism and other forms of discrimination in the workplace. For employers, it's a compass for finding and identifying covert racism in the organization. For allies who have never experienced racism in the workplace, it's a powerful way to step into the shoes of a racial discrimination victim.Resources Mentioned:Hush Money: How One Woman Proved Systemic Racism in Her Workplace and Kept Her JobHush Money: The Cost of Being Black in Corporate AmericaConnect with Jacquie:LinkedIn: Jacquie Abram Facebook: jacquie.abram Instagram: jacquie_abram_hushmoneyTwitter: hushmoney2020The podcast's hashtag is #nourishyourflourish.

Islamic Iran is a country of hatred, terror, and world disruption. Yet Iran is also a country of amazing people, with a great promise for the future. Which Iran will emerge from the upcoming reckoning? For the past 40 years Iran has been ruled by bloodthirsty Mullahs doing their best to stifle their own people while chanting death to America, death to Israel every chance they get. First supported by Jimmy Carter, and later by Barack Obama, this evil Muslim theocracy has destabilized the world while enriching itself. But the Iranian people, now with President Trump's support, have had enough. Like any other human beings on earth they want peace and freedom, and they are willing to die for it. Enjoy AJ Steel's interview with Lisa, an American Christian women who has dedicated her life to the cause of freedom, and peace in Iran.

In today’s episode, I’m sitting down with Veronica Marrinan and we’re talking about the origins of Litany, an ethical, sustainable, and Catholic women's clothing line that she founded. But we’re also talking about what it’s like to live in New York City in the heart of the fashion industry as a Catholic woman, and how Veronica witnesses to truth through beauty in conversations with those who don’t share her Catholic faith. So often we let lies like “I don’t know enough,” “I’m too busy,” “I don’t have all the answers,” and “I don’t have it all together,” hold us back from sharing about our faith and our relationship with Christ and His Church. If you’re wondering how to evangelize and honor the dignity of those you work with or your friends who aren’t Catholic, sister, this letter is for you!

Meet Wang Xuan, a woman who is working tirelessly to seek justice for victims of biological weapons of Unit 731. Born in 1952 in Shanghai, China, Wang Xuan graduated from a university in China and worked as an English teacher for over ten years. In 1993 she received a Master's Degree in Education with distinction from the University of Tsukuba in Japan. In 1995, she discovered by chance what would turn out to be the cause to which she would dedicate her life's work. From a news article in an English newspaper about the First International Symposium on Unit 731 held in Harbin, China, she learned that Japanese peace activists had been reported going to Chongshan Village, Yiwu, Zhejiang Province, China, to investigate the plague epidemic caused by Unit seven three one's bacterial warfare in World War II. This cause had been special in Wang Xuan's heart as her family was from Zhejiang. During WWII, Zhejiang was of strategic importance, as several airfields in the area were used as Allied bases. The Zhejiang Jiangxi Railway also was viewed as an important supply line. The Imperial Japanese Army then launched strategic attacks on the railway from May to September of 1942. This was also directed at the allies in retaliation for the "Doolittle" air raids on Tokyo by the U.S. bombers. Due to the number of ground troops in the area, the Japanese Imperial Army considered it considerably more cost effective to use biological weapons than any other method.

In today's episode I speak with Tricia Nelson, Partner at EY and head of their 300 person strong People Consulting Business. This is an interview that's been almost two years in the making and I'm pleased to say, it was certainly worth the wait. When you hear about a senior leader like Trish, in one of the world's biggest consulting businesses, it's easy to think they've followed the traditional consulting career path. Went to a good university, got on the right grad scheme and made the right moves to climb the ladder from there. But as you'll hear in today's interview, Trish's story has been anything but. In today's episode we dig into Trish's story and discuss the hugely important topic of diversity. An area that Trish is extremely passionate about having seen first-hand many of the challenges that underrepresented groups face in climbing the career ladder in our industry. In this episode, we go deep into the topic of diversity and inclusion and cover some really important and impactful areas, many of which I've not covered with any guest before, including: - The challenges for young people right now and Trish's own experiences of building a career having left school at 18 and not going to university at a time when this wasn't the done thing. - The challenges that our industry faces when it comes to diversity and what consulting leaders like you can and should be doing to help increase awareness and accessibility of consulting as a career and supporting those from underrepresented groups to thrive within the industry. - And the unseen diversity impacts of the Covid-19 pandemic and the hidden challenges that the new ‘remote working world' creates that consulting firms need to think about. In an industry that is still largely dominated by white men, Trish is both a fantastic role model and a true champion for those underrepresented in our industry. Whether you're a woman who's looking for advice and guidance on how to climb within the industry or you're one of the privileged many – white men like myself – that want to know what you can do to help those in your team to thrive, you're going to love this episode.

As mentioned in the month's dedication, the July and August episodes will be on this very important topic, uterine fibroids. Uterine fibroids are noncancerous growths of the uterus that often appear during childbearing years. Fibroids range in size from seedlings, undetectable by the human eye, to bulky masses that can distort and enlarge the uterus. Over their lifetime, about 80 percent of black women and 70 percent of white women will develop fibroids.  Relative to white women, black women are 2-3 times more likely to have fibroids, to develop them at younger ages, to have bigger fibroids, to have more fibroids, and to have more symptoms.  I have come to realize that many women, regardless of race suffer in silence and often alone once receiving the diagnosis.  I made the decision to share my story and create the space for other black women to share their story. I believe Stories are powerful; they are the best tool to help us create caring, empathetic and meaningful communities. They are concrete indicators that we can use to affirm we are not alone within the space we find ourselves walking through. I am honored to share the space and time to speak to 6 bold, strong and courageous women and to hear their fibroid story. I am most grateful that they have found the personal strength and fortitude to be strong enough and ready to share their personal and intimate story with the world. The July episode will feature the stories of Karla Lewis, LaToya De'Shaun and Danielle Davis. On August 1, I will announce and share three new stories from three different amazingly strong and courageous black women. Each story shared is unique, emotional and in the voice and words of a black women who have received a fibroid diagnosis, has made or is making a decision, and have started their journey on healing after the decision was made. Some may have had a procedure and others, like me are just at beginning of making a very personal, complex and complicated medical decision.  Some are still healing, emotionally and physically and others are now being faced at making yet another medical decision as the fibroids have returned. May this episode and the episode posting tomorrow inform, educate and open all whom listen become aware to understanding the impact of uterine fibroids on the lives of Black women and all women that receive the diagnosis. Please listen and honor the stories of Karla, Latoya Deshaun and Danielle on part 1 of black Woman Working …on normalizing black women health around fibroid awareness. --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app

Christina Rasmussen is an internationally recognized grief educator and author of Second Firsts and her new book, Where Did You Go – A Life-Changing Journey to Connect with Those We’ve Lost. She is the founder of The Life Reentry Institute, Second Firsts and Star Letters. Christina has helped countless people break out of what she coined the “waiting room” of grief to rebuild their lives through her Life Reentry Model. Yet, she discovered that even as her students rebuild their lives and thrive again, many are left with the same burning questions: What happens when we die? Are we capable of connecting to those who have passed on?  Christina herself wrestled with these spiritual questions and now her mission is to change the way we grieve, the way we live, and how we define our potential in this life, and the hereafter.

What do smart leaders know about diversity that sets them apart? Why is it that diversity and inclusion are such hot topics today? During this show I will be talking to Dr Suzanne Doyle Morris the CEO and founder of the InclusIQ Institute which creates playful yet thought provoking tools for inclusive leadership and reducing unconscious bias. She received her PhD from the University of Cambridge, where she focused on the experiences of women working in male-dominated fields. She is author of “Beyond the Boys' Club: Strategies for Achieving Career Success as a Woman Working in a Male Dominated Field” and “Female Breadwinners: How They Make Relationships Work and Why They are the Future of the Modern Workplace.” If you are interested in diversity and the innovation and bottom line benefits that embracing diversity can deliver then this will be a very valuable listen.

Over 15 million people in the world are living as refugees. According to Emily Arnold-Fernandez, the executive director of Asylum Access, the average time in a refugee camp is now almost 20 year. “Less than 1% of refugees reach the US, Canada, Europe and Australia combined each year,” she says. “In many places, refugees aren’t allowed to move freely, work, attend school, or open a bank account, so they can’t rebuild their lives. They’re forced to depend on aid.” Tweet: “Less than 1% of refugees reach the US, Canada, Europe and Australia combined.” -@asylumaccess via @devindthorpe http://ctt.ec/w0knA+ Emily says, “Asylum Access is changing this, by focusing on refugees’ rights. We believe that when refugees enjoy their rights, they can fulfill their own needs.” More about Asylum Access: Asylum Access is an innovative international nonprofit dedicated to making refugee rights a reality. Asylum Access empowers refugees in Africa, Asia and Latin America to live safely, work, send children to school and rebuild their lives. Asylum Access is the only international organization solely dedicated to making refugee rights a reality in first countries of refuge. By helping refugees assert their rights, we are putting power back into their hands. We provide direct legal assistance and education to over 10,000 refugees annually in Ecuador, Thailand and Tanzania, reaching hundreds of thousands more through policy advocacy and strategic litigation. Our work transforms the traditional approach of endless humanitarian handouts to a sustainable solution that gives refugees the tools to provide for themselves and make choices about their own lives. image Emily’s bio: Emily Arnold-Fernández, the founder and executive director of Asylum Access, is a social entrepreneur and human rights pioneer. A lawyer who has advocated nationally and internationally for the human rights of women, children, and other vulnerable individuals, Emily first became involved in refugee rights in 2002, when she represented refugees in United Nations proceedings in Cairo, Egypt. Recognizing that refugees throughout Africa, Asia and Latin America – some of whom flee with nothing more than the clothes on their backs – were almost always unequipped to go into a legal proceeding in a foreign country, alone, and explain why they should not be deported, Emily founded Asylum Access to advocate on behalf of refugees seeking to assert their rights. For her innovative approach to the global refugee crisis, Emily was honored by the Dalai Lama as one of 50 “Unsung Heroes of Compassion” from around the world (2009), Waldzell Institute’s Architects of the Future Award (2012) and Grinnell College Young Innovator for Social Justice Prize (2013). She has also been recognized as Pomona College’s Inspirational Young Alumna (2006), awarded the prestigious Echoing Green fellowship (2007), and recognized as the New Leaders Council’s 40 Under 40 (2010), among others. Emily holds a B.A. cum laude from Pomona College and a J.D. from Georgetown University Law Center. A visionary human rights activist, Emily Arnold-Fernández takes her inspiration from a line in a June Jordan poem: “We are the ones we have been waiting for.” Emily is particularly passionate about Asylum Access because it has the power to transform refugee rights from paper promises to on-the-ground reality. “For half a century, international law has given refugees the rights to live safely, seek employment, send children to school and rebuild their lives. But those rights are meaningless unless they are respected on the ground,” she says. “Asylum Access provides a rare opportunity to fill a gaping hole in our human rights system – by making refugee rights a reality for real people.”
