    Can AI Be Used Responsibly? The Ethics of Care in a Machine Age with Corinna Bellizzi, PhD, MBA

    Almost every conversation about AI is about power — what it can do, what jobs it will replace, and who it will enrich. Almost no one is asking what it would mean to bring care to this technology. In this solo episode of Care More Be Better, host Corinna Bellizzi, PhD, draws on Carol Gilligan's ethics of care, her own doctoral research into regenerative enterprise, and her personal experience using Claude and ChatGPT in dissertation research to make the case that AI can be an amplifier of care — but only with intention, transparency, and accountability. She covers the copyright settlement Anthropic reached with authors in July 2026, the attention question, the RFK Jr. MAHA report hallucinations, and the four questions everyone should ask before adopting any AI tool.

    Getting Unstuck: Facilitation, And The Work Of Values Alignment With Genevieve Smith

    Many social change organizations struggle to bridge the gap between the values displayed on their office walls and the actual practices in their daily operations. Achieving true values alignment requires navigating deep humanity, conflict, and the inevitable shame that arises during transitional periods. In this episode, host Corinna Bellizzi sits down with Genevieve Smith, an organizational effectiveness consultant and founder of GV Advisory. Genevieve shares her unique approach as a "professional bummer" who facilitates difficult but necessary conversations around power sharing, organizational grief, and leadership transitions. She explains how drawing inspiration from preschool classrooms and using tools like the community garden metaphor can help teams get unstuck, build trust, and move from panic to practical solutions. Full Blog Here: https://caremorebebetter.com/getting-unstuck-facilitation-and-the-work-of-values-alignment-with-genevieve-smith/ About Guest: Genevieve Smith is an organizational effectiveness consultant using a facilitative approach to her work with foundations and nonprofit organizations.

    Inspired and Enraged: Wayne Pacelle on the War on Wildlife

    The federal government plans to kill 450,000 barred owls over 30 years to protect the northern spotted owl — while simultaneously narrowing the definition of harm under the Endangered Species Act to allow old-growth forest logging that will destroy the spotted owl's habitat. Wayne Pacelle, president of Animal Wellness Action and the Center for Humane Economy, joins Corinna Bellizzi to expose the timber industry logic behind both moves. Together, they explain what's happening to wild horses and wolves on America's public lands, and share what 35 years of animal protection work has taught Wayne about how a slippery slope can lead to environmental devastation. We must act to protect America's open spaces and wild habitats. 00:00 — Introduction: The Spotted Owl, the Barred Owl, and the Question of Whose Fault It Is 04:00 — The 14-Mile Zone of Life: How Much Room Do We Actually Share? 06:00 — The Northern Spotted Owl: History, Habitat, and the Timber Wars 10:00 — The Barred Owl Is Not Invasive: The Range-Expansion Argument 14:00 — Human Beings Crossed the Bering Land Bridge: Applying the Same Logic 18:00 — The Plan to Shoot 450,000 Owls: Why It Won't Work 20:00 — The Endangered Species Act: How the Definition of Harm Is Being Gutted 23:00 — The One Big Beautiful Bill and the 60% Timber Increase 27:00 — Old Growth Redwoods, Carbon, and the True Cost of Logging 30:00 — The Lawsuit and What Comes Next 32:00 — Wild Horses: 80,000 vs. 4.3 Million Cattle 36:00 — Wolves: Delisted for Politics, Hunted by Snowmobile 37:00 — Fertility Control as a Humane Alternative 39:00 — Why Every Animal Sequesters Carbon 40:00 — The Migratory Bird Treaty Act and Its Origins 44:00 — The Environmental Groups That Got This Wrong 47:00 — Direct Mail, Organizational Efficiency, and the 95% Program Model 50:00 — What Animal Wellness Action Has Actually Accomplished 53:00 — Wildfires, Forest Management, and Fossil Fuels 57:00 — The Colorado River and the Water Crisis 01:00:00 — What You Can Do: Congress, Donations, and Showing Up 01:02:00 — Closing: Inspired and Enraged Resources Wayne Pacelle on LinkedIn Animal Wellness Action — animalwellnessaction.org Center for Humane Economy — humaneeconomy.org Wayne Pacelle on X Wayne Pacelle on Instagram The Bond — Wayne Pacelle The Humane Economy — Wayne Pacelle Action Alert: Barred Owl Kill Plan Action Alert: Endangered Species Act Definition of Harm Donate to Animal Wellness Action Aldo Leopold — A Sand County Almanac Bill McKibben on Ezra Klein Show CONNECT & SUPPORT CARE MORE BE BETTER Substack: https://caremorebebetter.substack.com YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/c/caremorebebetter TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@caremorebebetter Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/caremorebebetter Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/CareMoreBeBetter LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/care-more-be-better CAUSE PARTNER: If you value open dialogue, sustainability, and social equity, I invite you to support our new cause partner —Prescott College.

    How Corporations Socialize Costs To Become Profiteers With Christopher Marquis

    For decades, large corporations have privatized their massive profits while quietly shifting environmental, social, and health costs onto the public. Unpacking these systemic costs is central to the discussion in The Profiteers, which diagnoses how business practices impact society at large. In this episode, host Corinna Bellizzi speaks with Christopher Marquis, Professor of Chinese Management at the University of Cambridge Judge Business School and author of Better Business, to analyze the hidden mechanics of corporate externalities. From plastics lobbying and regulatory co-optation to visionary models of regenerative agriculture and foundation ownership, they explore why exposing systemic corporate abuse is the first crucial step toward real reform. Discover how innovative enterprise models, policy levers, and conscious consumer choices can help build a truly sustainable and regenerative economy. About Guest: Professor Marquis’ research and teaching focus on how some of the biggest crises of our day – including climate change, inequality, and discrimination – are intimately connected to how our current economic and societal systems prioritize accumulating and concentrating wealth for the few over the concerns and needs of everyone and everything else. His research and writing focus on the need to rebalance the interactions between corporations, governments, and civil society to deliver socially and environmentally beneficial outcomes to all. Marquis is the author of The Profiteers: How Business Privatizes Profits and Socialize Costs. His earlier books include the award-winning Better Business: How the B Corp Movement is Remaking Capitalism and Mao and Markets: The Communist Roots of Chinese Enterprise, which was a Financial Times Best Book of 2022. He has also authored more than 20 peer-reviewed academic articles and more than 50 Harvard business cases on topics related to social innovation, sustainable business and doing business in China. Professor Marquis served 2 terms as an Associate Editor at Administrative Science Quarterly and has also been a Senior Editor at Organization Science and Management and Organization Review. He has also served a term as Representative at Large for the International Association for Chinese Management Research (IACMR) and Organization and Management Theory Division, Academy of Management. Before returning to academia, Marquis was a Vice President and Technology Manager at JP Morgan Chase. He currently is on the sustainability advisory board of the French multinational Sanofi Consumer Healthcare.

    "I've Never Had New Shoes Before." with Amy Fass, Shoes That Fit

    More than 1.3 million children in the United States are unsheltered — and for many of them, a pair of new athletic shoes is not a given but a barrier, to school attendance, to sports participation, to the simple feeling of belonging. Amy Fass, Executive Director of Shoes That Fit, joins Care More Be Better as the domestic companion to the earlier Because International conversation, bringing the lens of childhood shoe insecurity home. She and host Corinna Bellizzi explore what new shoes actually do for a child's self-esteem, the stories of children transformed by something as simple as a name-brand sneaker, the antiquated federal poverty line that leaves millions uncounted, and how to make a concrete difference when the scale feels overwhelming.

About Our Host: Corinna Bellizzi, PhD, MBA is a trailblazer in regenerative nutrition and ethical brand strategy. With a career spanning more than 25 years, she built Nordic Naturals into the dominant force in the omega-3 category before pivoting her focus to algae-based nutrition. Through her consultancy, Circle B, she currently serves as Head of Sales and Marketing at Örlö Nutrition, a purpose-driven brand at the forefront of carbon-negative, algae-based nutrition that she helped conceive. In 2021, she created and launched Care More Be Better, now a top 0.05% global podcast with over 3.5 million downloads. She earned her PhD at Prescott College, graduating in August, 2026. The qualitative multiple-case study research she published in her dissertation argues that the ethics of care, equity, and justice are the generative preconditions for authentic regenerative enterprise. She is presently working to secure the right publisher to bring this research to a broader audience. Care More Be Better is available on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, Amazon Music, Audible, the Care More Be Better website and most major podcast platforms. JOIN OUR CIRCLE.
