Toby Mildon On How Diversity And Inclusion Can Create A Stronger Workplace

Toby Mildon On How Diversity And Inclusion Can Create A Stronger Workplace

In this episode, Toby Mildon joins us to talk about how diversity and inclusion can create a stronger workplace About Toby: Toby Mildon is a Diversity and inclusion Architect who is passionate about creating diverse workplaces and cultures that are inclusive. He has helped some of the UK's largest companies, including the BBC, Deloitte, Sony, and HarperCollins Publishing, improve staff retention, brand innovation, productivity, and performance. Toby's lifelong passion for Diversity and Inclusion stems from his personal and professional experiences with inequality, and his belief that building a culture of inclusive growth is essential for organizational success. Toby's Inclusive Growth Culture Program helps businesses implement real change and avoid shallow and superficial diversity initiatives. If a company has more than 250 employees, or is intending to grow to this size, Toby is the right person to help drive the business forward and achieve new heights. He speaks passionately about how moving beyond superficial diversity initiatives and building a culture of inclusive growth is essential. It addresses the underlying issues of inequality and creates a sustainable framework for continued growth and success. Toby's book, Inclusive Growth: Future-proof your business by creating a diverse workplace, provides a practical framework that enables you to deliver a sustainable, diverse and inclusive workplace that allows your organisation to grow. The book helps you understand how to strategically align diversity and inclusion to organisational growth, change the culture and motivate senior leaders to ‘walk the talk’ for inclusivity, design and implement a sustainable inclusivity infrastructure, work as a whole organisation rather than in HR isolation, and celebrate your inclusivity to become an employer of choice in your industry. According to Hatem El-Hady, MD The Aspen Institute, "Toby demonstrated distinguished leadership and project/change management and stellar consulting skills. I wish him well as he continues to advance his career, and would be happy to serve as a reference to him as and when required." Toby's passion for diversity and inclusion, combined with his expertise and experience, make him an ideal speaker for any conference event focused on diversity, inclusion, leadership, HR heads, employee retention, employee engagement, employer branding, equality, and strategy.

Learning all about scaler energy with Tom Paladino

Learning all about scaler energy with Tom Paladino

Tom Paladino  is a Scalar Energy Researcher with over 25 years of experience developing healing techniques designed to help people all over the world to recover from pathogenic infection and experience true health and wellness.The story begins back in Tom’s undergraduate days when he became inspired by his research into the work of various scientists. Exploring the discoveries and theories of Hieronymus, Moray, Priore, and Nikola Tesla, he was intrigued by the existence of an energy that is not part the electromagnetic spectrum. Taking this as his inspiration, he dedicated himself to a course of independent study in order to better understand the possibilities of this unique energy with the ultimate aim of successfully harnessing it. Tom realized that the scalar energy he was studying has been known to many cultures throughout the ages; it may be referred to as prana, chi, radiant energy, zero-point energy, qi, orgone or eloptic energy. Encouraged by the timeless, all- pervading nature of this fundamental energy source, and after years of experimentation and modification, Tom Paladino developed a unique healing technique using scalar energy called Scalar Light that appears to have the ability to transmute pathogens quickly and painlessly.This technique uses photographs of people who are seeking relief from the symptoms of pathogenic diseases. Tom Paladino’s Scalar Light invention uses a remote passive light energy to influence the human bio field. The transmutation process shows promise in disassembling the agents of diseaseThe Scalar Light Instrument operates at the quantum level and is designed specifically to disassemble pathogens such as viruses, bacteria, parasites, protozoans, amoebas, and prions; appearing to eliminate the causative agent of disease. Once the causative agent of a pathogen disease has been eliminated, the symptoms associated with that infection decrease or disappear altogether. There are a number of healing programs, each designed to target different sources of illness. The Pathogen Cleanse healing program seeks to disassemble over 400,000 pathogens for both humans and animals. The Nutrient Therapy program is designed to deliver 347 essential nutrients to living cells. The Bio Energy Balance program harmonizes the body of the person or animal receiving the healing. These programs are continually being developed and new exciting healing possibilities are emerging all the time.Connect with Tom: https://www.twitter.com/tompaladino

Survivor 43 Winner Mike Gabler on His Passion for Veterans, His Survivor Experience, and More!

Survivor 43 Winner Mike Gabler on His Passion for Veterans, His Survivor Experience, and More!

Guys! I can't believe this! In this episode, Survivor 43 winner Mike Gabler joins us to talk about his passion for veterans, his Survivor experience, and more!
About Mike Gabler: (quoted from hollywodlife.com)
1. Gabler is from Texas.
Mike is from Houston, Texas. But his current residence is Meridian, Idaho. He spends a lot of time outdoors which he documents on his Instagram.

2. Gabler is a heart valve specialist.
Mike works as an aneurysm and trans-catheter heart valve specialist. He works at Edwards Lifesciences, which is a medical technology company. “I play a role on a heart team, working with top surgeons and top cardiologists,” he told Parade about his job. Mike also explained that there are “high-pressure situations” that occur at work which he thinks could help him navigate Survivor.

3. Gabler is married with two children.
Mike has two daughters with his wife. The entire family has been Survivor fans for a long time. “We’re one of those families that watches with the pause button,” he told Parade. “So when something big is about to happen or drop, we’ll hit pause, we kind of queue the room. I’ll ask my two daughters and my wife what they think. We all make our best guess. And then we hit play.”
4. Gabler was the oldest contestant on ‘Survivor 43’.
At 52 years old, Mike is the oldest contestant on Survivor 43. The second-oldest contestant is 43-year-old Nneka Ejere, who is on a different tribe than Mike. By comparison, the youngest contestant on the season was Mike’s Baka tribemate, 19-year-old Sami Layadi. Mike is now the second oldest player to win Survivor.

5. Gabler grew up in a military family
Mike’s father was a Green Beret. Gabler played Survivor in honor of veterans who are suffering from PTSD and traumatic brain injuries. After the final tribal council, he announced that he’d be donating his $1 million to people who fought for our country like his family members

 Erin Moriarty from CBS News on the curious case of Crosley Green

Erin Moriarty from CBS News on the curious case of Crosley Green

Erin Moriarity from CBS News is here to discuss one of the most infuriating and fascinating cases I have ever heard, the curious case of Crosley Green.
About Crosley (quoted from Crowell.com, ):
On September 5, 1990, an all-white jury convicted Mr. Green of the first-degree murder of Charles “Chip” Flynn, Jr., a 22-year-old man in Titusville, Fla., and sentenced him to death. Mr. Green was convicted on the testimony of a single eyewitness, the victim’s ex-girlfriend, who identified Mr. Green as the perpetrator. In 2009, Crowell won Mr. Green’s release from death row, and he was resentenced to life in prison. On July 20, 2018, Crowell secured a critical victory in the case when a federal court in Orlando, Fla., granted Mr. Green’s petition for habeas corpus and ordered that he be released or provided a new trial.

"The court found that Mr. Green’s constitutional rights were violated when Brevard County, Fla., prosecutors withheld witness interview notes that said the first two responding law enforcement officers told the prosecutor that they concluded the victim’s ex-girlfriend—not Mr. Green—committed the crime. But the 11th Circuit Court of Appeals reversed Mr. Green’s victory, ruling that prosecutors did not need to disclose material exculpatory evidence to defense counsel because it would not have been admissible at trial. "It’s a fight for freedom, and the fight isn’t over until freedom is achieved,” said partner Keith Harrison. “We intend to approach Governor DeSantis and the parole board. We hope to have a conversation about why Mr. Green deserves to be free. We know Governor DeSantis is a law and order governor who is passionate about justice. We believe he will see that Crosley deserves to be free.” (all legal appeals have been exhausted)

About Erin (quoted from CBSNews.com):

Erin Moriarty, a CBS News journalist for three decades, has been a correspondent on "48 Hours" since 1990. In addition to reporting for "48 Hours," Moriarty's work is featured on all CBS News broadcasts and platforms, including "CBS Sunday Morning," "CBS Mornings" and the CBS News Streaming Network.

Moriarty is also the host of the true-crime podcast, "My Life of Crime."

At CBS News, Moriarty has covered some of the biggest crime and justice stories of our time, including the wrongful conviction of Ryan Ferguson, the death of JonBenet Ramsey, the ongoing story of millionaire Robert Durst, and the controversial case of Brooke Skylar Richardson, a young Ohio woman tried – and acquitted – for murdering her newborn baby.

Grab some tissues for Dr. Paul Wichansky

Grab some tissues for Dr. Paul Wichansky

Dr. Paul Wichansky joins us for one of the most inspiring conversations we've ever had. Dr. Paul Wichansky is a motivational speaker who has shared his story with over one million people nationwide and with foreign exchange students from 20 countries.  His presentations highlight the topics of diversity, disability acceptance, anti-bullying, youth empowerment, and leadership.  Starting his speaking career at the tender age of 10 years old, his experiences are a testament to the enduring power of love, perseverance, and resilience.

Paul was born with cerebral palsy and has hearing loss.

Though doctors told his parents that their toddler son would never walk, Paul never gave up on his dream.  This former special needs child has transformed obstacles into unique opportunities for self-improvement, learning to walk and achieving many other goals, and even earning his doctorate.  He has always believed that our challenges can be our greatest gifts in life.
