20 years ago, Trudy Forsyth and a group of women in wind asked a simple but powerful question: where are the other women in this industry — and how do we bring more in?That question led to the founding of Women of Wind Energy (now WRISE). The first event in 2005 was so packed they ran out of programs — and proved there was a community ready to grow.Today, WRISE has over 3,000 members, 47 chapters, a robust slate of annual programming, and continues to expand its impact across the renewable energy industry.To mark WRISE's 20th anniversary, Catherine sat down with Trudy to talk about:Her path from aerospace to wind in the early days of the industryLaunching her own distributed wind consulting firmNavigating misogyny and building leadership opportunitiesLessons from international collaboration and standards workWhat it really looks like to be an ally in this spaceHow the next 20 years of leadership in renewables can look different — and betterOne quote that stayed with us: “We need all of our intellectual capital engaged in advancing the renewable energy transition. Isolating any group is a mistake.”Thank you, Trudy — and thank you to everyone who's helped build WRISE over the past 20 years. It was an honor to record this conversation.If you're a clean energy employer & need help scaling your workforce efficiently with senior leaders, contact Catherine McLean, CEO & Founder of Dylan Green, on LinkedIn: https://bit.ly/3odzxQr.

In this episode of CASAT Conversations, we are honored to welcome Mary Dunn, a retired Licensed Clinical Social Worker whose decades-long career has been grounded in compassion, cultural awareness, and the power of human connection.Mary's professional path began in an unexpected place—the casinos of Lake Tahoe—where her early experiences observing human behavior planted the seeds for a lifelong career in service. With degrees in Sociology and Cultural Anthropology, she brought a deep understanding of systems and stories into her work across Nevada.Her career included vital roles in child welfare and mental health, including time in Elko working in Child Protective Services, serving as a Psychiatric Case Worker at Douglas Mental Health Clinic, and taking on leadership as the Deputy Compact Administrator for the Interstate Compact on the Placement of Children.Mary spent 2009 through 2012 as a Clinical Intern at West Hills Hospital, where she gained valuable experience but did not complete the required hours of supervision for licensure at that site. She later received her Clinical license while working at Family Counseling Service of Northern Nevada, where she provided direct care to individuals and families navigating complex challenges. She concluded her career as a Clinical Social Worker at Well Care, retiring in 2020.Throughout her journey, Mary championed the importance of destigmatizing mental illness, using laughter as a bridge, and—most of all—empowering people to make meaningful, lasting change. With warmth, humility, and hard-earned wisdom, she reflects on the moments that defined her career and the lessons she hopes to pass on to the next generation.In this episode, Mary shares:How her own personal traumatic experience sparked her interest in social workWhat she learned from her time in Elko CPSHow humor helped her build rapport and foster healingA breakthrough moment that reminded her why client empowerment mattersWhat sustained her through decades of emotionally demanding workWhy second-order change—supporting deep, systemic transformation—is the heart of the workHer advice for new mental health professionals entering the fieldJoin us for an engaging and heartfelt conversation with a social worker who never lost sight of the human being behind the diagnosis—and whose career reminds us that healing starts with empowerment, trust, and a little bit of laughter.Key words: clinical social work, mental health, social work stories, empowerment in therapy, healing through connection, human-centered healing

In this episode of Richardson's Rubicon, we dive head-first into the idea of a UK wealth tax on the super rich. Inspired by campaigners like Gary Stevenson and supported by groups like Tax Justice UK, we explore why this idea is gaining momentum – and why some people still think it won't work. Also, we're diving into why this might be the key for Labour to outdo Reform UK. It's all about rethinking the social contract and coming up with a way to tax the super-rich to make it work. It's a no-brainer.We look at:What a 2% wealth tax could raiseHow it compares to other countriesWhat went wrong in places like France and SwedenWhy the UK might actually make it workWhat millionaires themselves are saying about itJoin the conversation, and if you think the super-rich should pay their fair share, sign the petition here:

What happens when a university rethinks the whole higher ed model rebuilds it around hands-on, project-based learning?Matt Kirchner dives into the bold model pioneered by Worcester Polytechnic Institute with Dr. Kristin Wobbe, Director of the Center for Project-Based Learning. A biochemist turned curriculum innovator, Kris has spent nearly two decades helping WPI embed real-world projects into every stage of a student's education.From first-year seminars on global challenges to immersive junior-year team projects with community partners around the world, WPI's model turns students into creators, collaborators, and critical thinkers from day one.Whether you're a university leader or an instructor in search of a better way to teach, this episode offers a masterclass in how to make learning stick.Listen to learn:Why students don't need to “know everything” before they dive into hands-on learningHow WPI redesigned its calendar and credits to prioritize deep project workWhat first-year students can accomplish when they take on global problemsHow project-based learning transforms both faculty culture and student confidenceWhy WPI students are more prepared for the workforce than their peers3 Big Takeaways from this Episode:1. Project-based learning works best when it starts early and is embedded across the entire student journey.At WPI, students can opt into the Great Problems Seminar in their first year—a two-course sequence that explores global issues like food security, energy, and AI through interdisciplinary teamwork. By senior year, every student must complete a Major Qualifying Project worth three full courses, often in partnership with faculty or industry, making project-based learning a requirement, not an add-on.2. The humanities directly enhance technical learning and student outcomes.WPI's alumni data shows students who complete their humanities and arts curriculum earlier perform better in technical coursework later on. These experiences sharpen communication, interdisciplinary research, and critical thinking skills—essential for identifying problems worth solving and communicating solutions effectively in STEM fields.3. Project-based learning is scalable far beyond polytechnic institutions.Through WPI's Center for Project-Based Learning, Kris and her team have supported schools ranging from the Air Force Academy to community colleges and liberal arts institutions like the New England Conservatory of Music. With 85% of WPI faculty incorporating projects into their courses—and over half of student work now project-based—the model proves adaptable across disciplines, schedules, and resource levels.Resources in this Episode:To learn more about the Center for Project-Based Learning at Worcester Polytechnic Institute, visit: https://wp.wpi.edu/projectbasedlearning/Other resources:Read Kris's book Project-Based Learning in the First YearBeyond All ExpectationsWe want to hear from you!

Let's talk about what happens when you start refining your offers. Spoiler alert: it's not just spreadsheets, post-it notes, and “aha” moments. In this episode, I'm pulling back the curtain on the emotional chaos that often shows up when you're doing the deep, strategic work of shaping offers that actually reflect your brilliance. If you've been feeling confused, overwhelmed, or even a little bit like a fraud, this one's for you.I get it. You sit down to tweak your offer lineup and suddenly it feels like you're staring into the abyss. You doubt everything. You question if you're even cut out for this. Maybe you've even had the urge to scrap it all and start from scratch. That's not a sign that something's gone wrong. That's a sign you're right on track. We dive into the common emotional stages of offer refinement: confusion, mistrust, self-doubt, and that classic “burn it all down” moment. But we don't stop there.

Have you ever started a new supplement, and had your symptom not get better but WORSE? Were you confused by this, and wondered if you should keep taking the supplement or stop altogether? If you said yes to either of these questions, then this episode is for you! On today's episode, we're sharing an audio from one our private, group coaching calls for members of my program, the Better Belly Blueprint. On this coaching question, I'm coaching my client Barbara about a rash on a neck she had suddenly return upon starting a new supplement. Based on the training inside the Better Belly Blueprint, Barbara connected that this new supplement may be creating something called a Herxheimer reaction, or a detox and die-off reaction, so she stopped the supplement. What she WASN'T sure about was - when (if ever?) could she safely re-start the supplement? If you've ever been in a similar place to Barbara and have wondered about if you should keep taking a supplement if it gives you symptoms and, if yes, when or how to take that supplement safely - then you DON'T want to miss out on my answer to Barbara!

Have you ever done a protocol, and wondered if it was making any difference? Or even more specifically - have you ever done a candida protocol and wondered if it worked, or if you needed to do it again? If you said "yes" to any of these questions, then you are just like my client Elizabeth! In today's episode, I'm sharing a question from one of our group coaching calls inside my private coaching group, the Better Belly Blueprint, to share with YOU. Today's topic on candida is from my client Elizabeth. She asks: "How do I know when my candida is gone? As a reminder, I'm re-doing my candida protocol on week 4. (Update: I got diarrhea with the candida treatment the first round, but I don't now!). I do continue to get bloating after I eat any meal. Should I re-test for candida after I finish my protocol? I just want to know what exactly is causing the bloating and why it isn't gone yet!" What she REALLY wanted to know is - why is her bloating still here? And how can she know if the candida is gone if she still has that particular symptom? It can TOTALLY be rough going through a protocol and seeing improvement in some symptoms, but not in others (especially one(s) that you care about the most!). So if you've ever had anxiety around this question before, you DON'T want to miss my answer to Elizabeth!

Homemaking isn't mindless. It isn't menial. And it certainly isn't easy. Get the free Organize Your Attitude module here: simplyconvivial.com/storyYou've likely been told that keeping house should come naturally—that if you're struggling, it must be because you're lazy or undisciplined.

And that work matters.I'll walk you through the mindset shifts that every Christian homemaker needs to move from discouragement to joyful faithfulness. We'll explore:Why limited time and energy aren't problems to fix—but boundaries to stewardHow our expectations and definitions shape our attitude toward the workWhat to do about decision fatigue and burnoutWhy homemaking needs community, strategy, and biblical purposeIf you've ever looked around and thought, “Why can't I keep up?” or “Why does this feel so hard?”—this conversation is for you.

Nonprofit leaders have a lot going on in terms of advocacy we need to be doing with Congress. And I'm hearing from a lot of my clients and the folks in my coaching programs, saying “Just strip it down for me. What's the messaging we need to be using? Give me a framework so that I can keep this simple.”I totally understand the need for that, and I'm right here with you. We've got so much coming at us all the time that sometimes the best thing is to just keep it short and sweet and simple.
