Growing Awareness: DEI, Mindfulness, and the Lessons from ’Growing the Elephant’

Podcast Intro for "MindfulNews Podcast"

---

Greetings, dear listeners, and welcome back to another enlightening episode of the MindfulNews Podcast. I'm your host, Gui. As we navigate the landscapes of today's transformative discussions, we are joined by the remarkable Chris Altizer and Gloria Johnson-Cusak, co-authors of 'Growing the Elephant: Increasing Earned Advantage for All'. Our journey today will span across various terrains:

• We'll dive deep into the DEI Origins. The world has seen an increased focus on Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion. What's the story behind its rising prominence in the business sector? And how did it find its voice in our everyday conversations?

• Earned Advantage beckons us to explore the nuances of diversity's evolution and its resonance within the legal spectrum.

• As we wade through the waters of societal dynamics, we encounter the 'Privilege' Paradox. What complexities does the term 'privilege' bring, and how do we navigate our diverse differences?

• The Elephant in the Room stands as a monumental topic within our discussions. Chris and Gloria offer insights into its significance both within their literary work and in the larger scope of DEI discussions.

• As the world around us morphs at an unprecedented pace, we'll deliberate on Future Skills Relevance and Tgui Thinking. What skills will hold their ground in this whirlwind of change? How can reflection and mindfulness pave our path forward?

• Embarking on a personal voyage, Chris and Gloria will share their Journey into Mindfulness, offering a glimpse into their transformative experiences.

• We conclude with a reflection on What Matters Most, focusing on the core values and principles that anchor our souls in these tempestuous times.

So, dear listeners, as the tapestry of our conversation unfolds, we invite you to immerse yourself, find a moment of tranquility, and join us in this exploration of mindfulness, diversity, and the essence of being.
