Ep310: Antisemitism and Yom HaShoah: Jewish Holocaust Memorial Day, with Alice Henry 38:19

2+ y ago38:19

38:19

The Shoah is the Hebrew term for the Holocaust, and the full name of Yom Hashoah VeHagevurah literally means the “day of remembrance of the Catastrophe and the Heroism.” How much do you know about Yom HaShoah, and what happens on this day? What’s the difference between Yom HaShaoah and the United Nations’ International Holocaust Remembrance Day? Al…

Ep309: White Supremacy Culture from a White Man’s Perspective, with Jeff Akin 40:34

2+ y ago40:34

40:34

If you were emotionally OK enough with the episode title to click on the link, thanks for making it this far! I’m only partly kidding. The words “white supremacy culture” are definitely triggering, and not just for white people. What that phrase even means is hard to explain. So when fellow podcaster and white American male Jeff Akin told me he was…

Ep308: What Ramadan Means to Me, with Saleha Khan 37:08

2+ y ago37:08

37:08

Ramadan Mubarak! This special episode of the Changing Lenses podcast is being released just before the holy month of Ramadan, an incredibly significant time in the Islamic faith.

Ep307: Going Resume-Free to Hire More Inclusively, with Allie Knull 44:15

3y ago44:15

44:15

Have you ever felt in your job hunt that you’re being judged on something that doesn’t even represent who are you? Or at best, it only represents a very small part of the whole you. And yet “woke” companies are claiming to want employees to bring their “whole selves” to work. I’m saying it out loud: resumes are a terrible tool for hiring, on both t…

Ep306 Real Talk with Rosie: In the War for Talent, Candidates Become Casualties 45:56

3y ago45:56

45:56

This episode is all about the experiences of racialized people looking for work. Job hunting is hard enough as it is; but add on to that being Black, Indigenous, Latinx, Asian, and any other racialized identity that isn’t white – and it’s even harder. This is the 3rd in the series of 4 LinkedIn Lives that I’m re-sharing as podcast episodes, so you …

Ep305: We Need to Talk About Period Pain. Period. With Lux Perry 46:03

3y ago46:03

46:03

Endometriosis affects more people than prostate cancer, breast cancer and heart disease combined. It's in the top 20 most painful diseases in the world, and there’s no cure. It affects 1 in 10 people with a uterus. And it is so undiagnosed, so misunderstood, that patients get threatened with expulsion from school, or fired from work. Today is Inter…

Ep304: Building Walls against Immigrants: Systemic Barriers to Employment, with Xin Yi Yap 42:56

3y ago42:56

42:56

When you’re job hunting, does it sometimes feel like you’re trying to breach an impenetrable fortress? Recruiters and hiring managers talk about attracting top talent, but when it comes down to it, they act more like an immigration department trying to keep undesirable people out, than warmly welcoming people in. And if we’re going to compare recru…

Ep303: Culturally Relevant Career Tips to Empower You, with Oscar Garcia 44:33

3y ago44:33

44:33

Almost all the career counselling, mentorship, corporate training etc. I’ve received have been almost exclusively from white people. Nothing wrong with that – I’ve been blessed to receive great advice and support from many white leaders over the years. But I’m not white. And I had to filter a lot of the info I got through my cultural lens. So when …

Ep301: Who Decides When You’re Good Enough? 18:44

3y ago18:44

18:44

Have you ever tried to do something for the very first time? If so, what did you hear more often: . ❌ “Who do you think you are?” or ✅ “I believe in you!” . . When I started my first ever podcast from scratch with no experience, I had to believe in myself before others believed in me. It’s natural to want validation from others before we actually t…

Bonus Ep213: Talking Allyship and Solidarity on the Know Nonsense Anti-Racism Podcast 42:39

3y ago42:39

42:39

Anti-Racism. Black Lives Matter. Allyship and Solidarity between equity-seeking groups. We’ve touched a bit on these with Changing Lenses podcast guests over the last year, but haven’t dived as deeply into these topics as my friend and fellow podcaster Nura Yunus has. She created the Know Nonsense Podcast to educate listeners about the experiences …

Ep211: Combatting Poverty with Neuroscience, not Financial Literacy, with Emily Heath 40:33

3+ y ago40:33

40:33

If we see poverty as the result of financial illiteracy, irresponsibility or a lack of self-control, then the blame falls on the person living in poverty, and the answer is to find a job, spend less, and get financial training. Financial literacy education is definitely important, and these programs have their benefits. But knowledge alone does not…

Ep210: All the Single Ladies (are invisible minorities), with Jaime Ho 42:12

3+ y ago42:12

42:12

We’re single, but we’re not alone. The population of singles are growing in North America – but we’re still a minority group. And like any minority group, we face discrimination and marginalization purely because we don’t have the power of the majority – even more so for single women. If you’re wondering how that could be, you’re probably married. …

Ep209: Breaking the Bamboo Mold: How One “Model Minority” Did It (and we can too), with Carissa Begonia 36:40

3+ y ago36:40

36:40

Carissa Begonia is a Filipina-American who left a safe corporate job to start her own business. Until I met her, the only examples I had of entrepreneurs or people following their passions were completely unrelatable for me. Because they were almost all white folks who didn’t have the same immigrant, survival-based, play-it-safe mentality that defi…

3+ y ago45:09

45:09

Many employers are asking where to find and hire “diverse talent”. What they SHOULD be asking is how their recruitment process might discriminate against these candidates once they apply. In this episode, Safiyah Husein, a lawyer and Senior Policy Analyst at the John Howard Society, shines a light on the hidden dangers behind a widely accepted hiri…

“I started learning about residential schools. I started learning about generational trauma and that's when I realized like, okay, there's nothing wrong with us. I'm not broken.

Have you ever been told you can’t do it, or you’re not good enough for something you really wanted? What if you got that message in your whole life starting from childhood?

Ep202: What Kind of Person is Your Corporation? – The Case for Equity Diversity & Inclusion – Ali Interviews Rosie 34:30

3+ y ago34:30

34:30

What do you think is the business case for equity, diversity and inclusion? In business, or even not for profit, should morality or humanitarian reasons play a role? Or should it strictly be about profit and shareholder value? I have some opinions on this, which I apply in my work as an Equity, Diversity and Inclusion Strategist. But as a podcaster…

Ep110: Season Finale – Are We Ready For Real Change? 10:59

4y ago10:59

10:59

As I reflect back on the first season of the podcast, it’s become clear to me that systemic change starts with personal change. I believe true inclusion and equity requires sacrificing some of our self-interests, like power, position, even profit. The question is – are we willing to make change happen, if it means changing and sacrificing ourselves…

“I think our greatest fear is that people are jumping into it just because it's good opportunity, or it's good PR.

What happens when capital markets and individual landlords control access to a fundamental human right?

36:32

Did you know that if you don’t have private health insurance, you likely have to pay for life-saving drugs out of your own pocket? Did you know that Canada’s healthcare ranks second last out of 10 countries? Without pharmacare, Canada’s “healthcare” system is NOT universal.
