    E24 – Planet-first beauty: Cosmetics with a conscience

    Today, we sit down with Ericka Rodriguez, founder and CEO of Axiology, a plastic-free, vegan beauty company based in Bend, OR. Ericka speaks with us about her journey into cosmetics rooted in her personal lifestyle choices of being a lifelong vegan, valuing the outdoors and nature, but not being able to find products that mirrored her values. She touches on the challenges inherent in being an ethical beauty company including packaging challenges and sourcing raw ingredients that often include the ubiquitous, rainforest-destroying palm oil. She also chats with us about the role that social media has played in the evolution of the Axiology brand, what consumers can do to support waste-free businesses, and how she and her small team keep things fun, lively, and impact-driven as they churn out the latest and greatest in Planet First Beauty products.

    E23 – Served hot: Brewing up conversations on race and diversity

    Today we visit with James Joyce III, founder and Chief Visionary Officer for Coffee with a Black Guy. James is a proven analytical thinker, speaker and writer who addresses potentially tense situations head-on, with an emphasis on issues of race and diversity. We speak with James about the founding of Coffee with a Black Guy in 2016 and the importance of bridging the gap, holding space, and dialoguing around race-based topics. With racial injustice issues continuously at the forefront of our daily lives, this episode is as timely as ever and one you don’t want to miss. We cover a lot of ground — from how Covid-19 and George Floyd’s murder in 2020 impacted Coffee with a Black Guy’s programming, to the ongoing trauma faced by Black Americans, to the first steps companies should take when wanting to address issues of diversity and race internally. We hope listeners will find some inspiration here as you continue (or begin) your own anti-racist journeys.

    E22 – Trust Based Philanthropy: Centering equity, humility, and transparency in grantmaking

    In today’s episode, we speak with Shaady Salehi, Executive Director of the Trust Based Philanthropy Project and Roxana Shirkhoda, former head of social impact at Zoom. We’ll discuss the core tenets of Trust Based Philanthropy while delving into why traditional models of philanthropy are rooted in a historical context of exploitation and business-centered logic that doesn’t often serve the community organizations doing the work. They’ll talk about the importance of multi-year unrestricted funding, the importance of having corporate and tech partners taking up the Trust Based Philanthropy mantle, and share about how they’re working to influence the entire sector towards an equitable, anti-racist, and restorative approach to giving. Also, a bit about breath, stretching and yoga — but definitely not the dying of hair! Enjoy.
