    A Hard Look at White Supremacy w/ Jill Nagle

    A Hard Look at White Supremacy w/ Jill Nagle

    White supremacy isn’t just in the history books; it’s baked into our daily lives, from the shows we watch to the ways we work, often without us even noticing. "It's the water that we swim in. And we don't know because we're the fish," says Jill Nagle.
    Jill has written multiple books, created a somatic counseling approach called Wisdom of the Body, and founded Evolutionary Workplace to help leaders build anti-racist organizations.
    In this episode, she and neurobiology expert Rajkumari Neogy delve into the past and present forces that uphold the idea of "white supremacy mythology." They examine collective stories like the American Dream that permeate through our culture, the connection between loneliness and violence, and how one might begin to mediate a productive conversation between IDF and Hamas.

    What Do You Do in Times of Despair? w/ Author & Professor Dr. Shariff Abdullah

    What Do You Do in Times of Despair? w/ Author & Professor Dr. Shariff Abdullah

    At a time of crisis at home and abroad, we find ourselves in a state of unprecedented disharmony. "But that doesn't mean we're going to act," says Dr. Shariff Abdullah, with a reminder that "the call to action may make you very uncomfortable."
    Shariff has devoted much of his life to the work of inclusivity and societal transformation. His award-winning book, The Power of One: Authentic Leadership in Turbulent Times, was published in 1991, yet its powerful principles are as relevant today as ever.
    In this episode, Shariff and neurobiology expert Rajkumari Neogy discuss the weight of despair that so many of us feel. They explore where this stems from, how to overcome our own resistance, and what we can do to get our hearts engaged in the moment.

    How to Build Face Recognition Software Ethically w/ Paravision's CEO, Doug Aley

    How to Build Face Recognition Software Ethically w/ Paravision's CEO, Doug Aley

    Face recognition technology is becoming a part of our daily lives in simple yet impactful ways. Unlocking your phone with a glance, tagging friends on social media, or verifying your identity at the airport are all examples of face recognition at work. Alongside its many practical benefits, there is a growing focus on addressing ethical concerns, especially when it comes to reducing bias.
    As one of the pioneers in this field, Paravision has made ethical development a top priority and, in 2022, achieved a #1 ranking as the most accurate face recognition in the world by the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST).
    In this episode, CEO Doug Aley and neurobiology expert Rajkumari Neogy engage in an open and honest conversation on the topic. They explore AI's potential for inclusivity, leading in divisive times, and the power of sitting with discomfort.

    A DEIB+ Strategy for High Growth w/ Indeed's Misty Gaither, VP of DEIB+

    A DEIB+ Strategy for High Growth w/ Indeed's Misty Gaither, VP of DEIB+

    Amid ongoing debates about the efficacy of Diversity, Equity, Inclusion, and Belonging (DEIB+) initiatives, Indeed stands out as an example of how high-growth organizations can integrate these principles effectively. With over 10,000 employees across more than 60 countries, Indeed not only prioritizes DEIB+ as a strategic and moral imperative but also demonstrates its tangible impact.
    Led by Misty Gaither, VP of DEIB+, Indeed's comprehensive approach—from bias reduction in hiring to leadership training—showcases the company's commitment to creating a workplace where every employee feels valued and included, setting a benchmark for industry peers.
    In this episode, Misty joins neurobiology expert Rajkumari Neogy to share a glimpse into her strategy. She delves into her "4Ps" DEIB+ framework, responds to the idea that Employee Resource Groups (ERGs) are exclusionary, and speaks openly about what it feels like to "interrupt, disrupt, and still hold space."

    The Truth About Workplace Burnout w/ Sarah Peyton, Neuroscience Writer & Author

    The Truth About Workplace Burnout w/ Sarah Peyton, Neuroscience Writer & Author

    "Workplace burnout is essentially unmourned grief," says Sarah Peyton, neuroscience educator and author of "Your Resonant Self." Much of her work has centered around attachment styles and how they impact our everyday interactions. In this episode, Sarah and neurobiology expert Rajkumari Neogy explore what it looks like for leaders to acknowledge grief and model healthy emotional responses at work. They delve into the latest findings on loneliness and social connection, including a deep dive into the circuits of emotion and motivation — neuroscientist Jaak Panksepp's body of work.
    Sarah previously joined us on Episode 1: The Power of Language in the Workplace.

    Is Affirmative Action Reverse Racism? w/ Social Justice Strategist Lovelyn Nwadeyi

    Is Affirmative Action Reverse Racism? w/ Social Justice Strategist Lovelyn Nwadeyi

    Recently, affirmative action has ignited a fiery debate across the U.S., partly fueled by a Supreme Court reversal with major consequences for college admissions and workplace DEI policies. Amidst this contentious backdrop, the narrative extends far beyond American borders, touching on global discussions about race, inclusion, and equity.
    For decades, South Africa's public consciousness has been defined by the lingering effects of Apartheid. As a Nigerian immigrant who grew up and started her career in South Africa, Lovelyn Nwadeyi had a front-row seat to the painstaking process of dismantling governmental and economic structures entrenched in racism.
    In this episode, we bridge continents as Lovelyn and neurobiology expert Rajkumari Neogy surface the parallels between the past and present of South African and American race relations. They delve into how historical structures continue to perpetuate exclusion and explore how organizations can embed social justice in their daily practices.
