This month's podcast is something a little different. About a year ago I was casually chatting with my friend (and regular podcast guest), Shoshie Bauer. We were discussing some of the challenges and frustrations she was facing as woman and professional in the miniatures field. This podcast is the ultimate fruit of that conversation.This month, I'm turning the podcast over to Shoshie as guest host along with three returning guests; Elizabeth Beckley, Jamie Daggers, and Em "ElectricEve" Durrant. Shoshie led her guests through a fantastic round table discussion on a number of topics which was in turn challenging, enlightening, and occasionally, very funny. Liz, Jamie, Em, and Shoshie herself are all pillars of the contemporary miniatures painting community and I hope you enjoy their discussion as much as I did!Shoshie BauerBluesky: @Shoshiesminis.bsky.socialWeb Shop: https://www.shoshiesminis.com/shopPatreon: https://www.patreon.com/c/ShoshiesMinis/postsElizabeth BeckleyInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/miniature_mistressJamie DaggersTwitch: www.twitch.tv/jamiedaggersPatreon: www.patreon.com/jamiedaggersLyctor: www.lyctor.comEm "ElectricEve" DurrantPatreon: https://www.patreon.com/electriceveInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/electriceve/Bluesky: @Electriceve.bsky.socialFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/electricevepaintingAs usual, this podcast was exclusive to Brush Wielders Union members for a few days before being released to general audiences.brushwieldersunion.com

Welcome to the What's Next! Podcast with Tiffani Bova. With the summer Olympics underway, I thought it fitting to return to an inspiring conversation I shared with Olympic Medalist Bonnie St. John. At the age of 5, Bonnie had her right leg amputated. And once you listen to this podcast, you will understand, there was no way that was going to stop her. At the age of 19, she became the first African-American to win medals at the 1984 Winter Paralympics in Innsbruck Austria. Bonnie was appointed by President Clinton as a director for Human Capital Issues on the White House National Economic Council and went on to represent the United States as a member of President Obama's official delegation to the 2010 Paralympic Winter Games in Vancouver and the 2016 Paralympic summer Games in Rio de Janeiro. Bonnie is also a Leadership Consultant for multiple Fortune 500 companies, the CEO of the Blue Circle Leadership Institute, and a best-selling author of seven books, including How Great Women Lead: A Mother-Daughter Adventure into the Lives of Women Shaping the World, and her latest title Micro-Resilience: Minor Shifts for Major Boosts in Focus, Drive, and Energy! I am thrilled to have Bonnie St. John on the podcast! THIS EPISODE IS PERFECT FOR… anyone! If you want to overcome your own personal talk track that the obstacles you face are insurmountable, then this is for you. I can't think of a better way for you to spend thirty minutes of your time than listening to “one of the five most inspiring women in America!” (NBC Nightly News) TODAY'S MAIN MESSAGE… today's episode is a fantastic reminder to always use your challenges, your obstacles, and your unique experiences to become a better leader. Great leaders take cues from the potential connections that can form all around them to change the way they think and therefore lead. Today, we're looking at those connections and how to constantly look for the small, subtle changes in your day-to-day behavior that can help you become a better leader. WHAT I LOVE MOST… Bonnie taking my Bullish and Bearish scenario from just “robots having their own Olympics,” to having “cyborgs” be the answer. I think it's a great example of Bonnie's amazing sense of humor, and I loved learning more about her, her humility, and all the amazing things she's been able to accomplish in her life (and career) thus far. It was a real treat learning more about what makes the legendary Bonnie St. John such a special human being.

EPISODE 1365: In this KEEN ON show, Andrew talks to the artist Tiffany Shlain about her new "Human Nature" exhibit which views the history of women within the expansiveness of nature and time through the lens of feminism, neuroscience, ecology and philosophy.

Shortly before the pandemic, the Museum of Modern Art in New York City premiered her one-woman show, Dear Human, about the relationship between humanity and technology. When the world shut down during COVID, Shlain spent the time walking in the redwoods and began working in large-scale sculpture, photography, and mixed media, exploring themes of scale, perspective, and time. She was selected as artist in residence by SHACK15 at the San Francisco Ferry Building, and began creating an exhibition, which debuted on the top floor of the Ferry Building, called Human Nature. The exhibition was presented by The National Women's History Museum based in Washington D.C. and Women Connect4Good. Working across film, art, and performance, Shlain's work explores the intersection of feminism, ecology, neuroscience, and philosophy. She has had multiple films premiere at Sundance, was selected by the Albert Einstein Foundation as one of the people carrying on his legacy, and received the Neil Postman Award for Career Achievement in Public Intellectual Activity. The US State Department has used Shlain's films to represent the U.S. at embassies around the world. She has held artist residencies at the Headland Center for the Arts, the American Museum of Jewish History, and the Da Vinci Museum, which created an exhibit of all of her work on gender and society. In addition to bringing the Human Nature exhibition to new locations in 2023, she is working on a new exhibition that will open in Los Angeles in 2024.

However, despite the many opportunities for investment, there remains a significant underrepresentation of women in the industry, with just a handful of female investors and executives at the top of the pyramid. For International Women's Day 2023, we speak with an industry professional reshaping the future of private capital in Africa, breaking barriers, challenging the status quo, and paving the way for a more inclusive and diverse industry. Meet Ann Wyman, Senior Partner, AfricInvest Ann is an internationally recognized economic and geopolitical researcher and manager with two decades of experience in financial services and consulting Ann has worked as an economist and head of Emerging Markets Research at both Citi and Nomura and contributes analysis to Oxford Analytica.

Today I have the treat of speaking with Dr Ros Watts - a clinical psychologist, a mother, and a passionate nature lover. Having worked as the Clinical Lead for Imperial College London's pioneering psilocybin trial, and then as the Clinical Director at Synthesis Institute, Ros is one of the most prominent and experienced voices in the field of psychedelic research today. She has been named one of the 50 Most Influential People in Psychedelics and one of the Top 16 Women Shaping the Future of Psychedelics, and it is her focus on integration, harm-reduction and inclusion in the psychedelic space that makes Ros's work so unique in this field. With a recently published a paper providing a validated scale for assessing psychological connectedness in a broad sense, Ros has designed The Watts Connectedness Scale as a clinical, practical tool for measuring our sense of connectedness to ourselves, to others, and to the living world. Ros has a desire to help people cultivate connectedness especially after psychedelic experiences, and it is from this place that she has created an integration community called ACER Integration, which aims to provide experiential education around how to integrate singular experiences into the wider collective and how to connect more deeply to life and one another, in all our relational complexity and richness. Recorded on 16th Nov 2022.

The lack of capacity the collective faces when it comes to nuance. We're socialized to only see, feel, and experience pain all of the time. Liberation is about healing the mind, body, and spirit. How social media has tripped us up to become performative and how we can get back to our center. Staying grounded in beauty amidst terror.

The first U.S. Presidential election was held in 1789. Women were allowed to vote in 1920. The U.S. has a woman in the White House in 2021. Women make up 50.8% of the population, yet women still only hold 142 of the 535 seats in Congress (26.5%). One woman who is bucking this trend is Malden, MA Ward 3 City Councillor, Amanda Linehan. In this episode, she shares her own journey into politics and how any of us can get involved in shaping policy. You can find her at www.amandalinehan.org Amanda's Ten Tips for Shaping Policy/Community Engagement: VOTE! The first sounds so basic, but it is simply to vote. If you aren't registered to vote, do so now! And if you are already, then a great idea is to help OTHERS register to vote at a voter registration drive. VOLUNTEER! Get connected to your city's democrats (or republicans) or advocacy groups like Our Revolution, a rail trail organization or running club or arts group. There's also mutual aid groups and places that serve meals or deliver groceries to neighbors with food insecurity. Houses of worship are often great vectors for making these types of connections, but so is simply reaching out to your local senior center or council on aging. They will be able to hook you up with service organizations that help the isolated, the unhoused, and you could find real joy in delivering turkeys at Thanksgiving or cooking for your area's shelter or warming center. JOIN A CAMPAIGN! Volunteer for a local campaign. They really do love folks with zero experience but a passion for their community, and there are always jobs for a variety of time commitments. I used to ask for walking routes that could be done with a stroller and only within a certain distance of home when I was canvassing with a potty-training toddler, and those one or two hour shifts over the course of a summer campaign were deeply appreciated. WRITE TO YOUR REPRESENTATIVES! Write to an elected official and ask to get coffee or do a zoom. You'd be surprised how often they will say yes. I always do! You can also easily look up your representatives in your state house and congress and send their office a letter or call. They track everything and you can find out everyone who represents you at a site like vote.org or likely your city or town's website and clerk's office. WATCH A MEETING! Now that things are recorded, stream a local meeting at your convenience and find an issue you are passionate about, then email the mayor or sponsor of that legislation and ask to be added to their mailing list. Or send a letter of support (or against!) a key issue as a starting point, then work up to testifying at a public meeting. The key is to inform yourself by attending, watching later, and reading the local news coverage. JOIN A NON-PROFIT BOARD! Join a non-profit board. Many of them recruit by word of mouth and are often looking for diversity in ways you may not have considered, for example by age or hometown or professional skill set, so don't assume their criteria are obvious and don't be afraid to express an interest in board service if you attend an event held by a really great organization. This was a great stepping stone for me and once I was affiliated with one, other folks heard about me when they were looking for someone from Malden or who works in Communications or who is passionate about affordable housing for their board. PLAY TO YOUR STRENGTHS! Engage in ways that play on your strengths and skill set. Do you like talking on the phone? Candidates and causes always need phone bankers, and often you can do this from home! Gregarious and like talking to people? Volunteer to knock doors or hold signs at the polls on election day. Are you great at fundraising, social media, writing, graphic design or planning fun events? Those skills are ALWAYS in demand by candidates and community organizations, and often the same local volunteers are tapped over and over for those roles. SEEK OUT FUN COMMUNITY EVENTS! Come to a fun event like a park cleanup, or a cultural festival, or a block party. New neighbors at that type of event are always embraced and welcomed and you'll likely find folks you can build a connection with. START A PETITION! Start a petition or join one already in progress that is making demands on public officials on policy areas you care about, whether that's better after school programming, better library hours, better racial equity training in the community, fewer trees cut down, you name it. There are often great organizations out there dedicated to the environment and preservation that are great places to start. In this area that would be organizations like Bike to the Sea, Friends of the Fells, Conservation Law Foundation, the Sierra Club, etc. RUN OR APPLY FOR A ROLE YOURSELF! Look past the obvious stepping stones like PTO or School Committee (unless those are your passion areas!) and explore things that align with your professional or personal goals and skills. There are energy efficiency commissions, disability rights boards, cultural councils, redevelopment authorities, immigrant rights groups, historical commissions, and so on. And if you own a business or are self-employed, often the Chamber of Commerce is a great organization to join, and these days they are a lot more dynamic and aiming for better diversity than in previous generations. They are always looking for social-media savvy members to boost their work and amplify the other businesses in town.
