Authentic Living

Quote: “Eventually, this kind of behaviour is going to take anyone down. The people coming through my door are highly educated, resilient, articulate, strong, dedicated, loyal people.” Linda Crockett

Have you ever been harassed or bullied at work? I know that many of us have at one time or another. It’s stressful and can affect your health, both physical and mental, in so many ways. On this episode of Authentic Living with Roxanne, we’re privileged to welcome workplace bullying expert Linda Crockett to share her expertise and tell us what we can do if we’re experiencing a less-than-welcoming workplace.

This was such a great interview packed with so much interesting information about workplace conflict that we decided to turn it into a 2-part series. Be sure to tune in again next week for part II.

Linda is known for pioneering the first and only full-service workplace harassment, bullying, and violence resource center in Canada since 2010. She has also spearheaded the regional and national workplace bullying awareness week with active government leader endorsement since 2010. Linda has won awards from the Government of Alberta and the University of Calgary for her specialized services. Her clinical and professional training includes a master’s degree specializing in workplace bullying. She is a practitioner of somatic experiencing trauma therapy, with training in EMDR, Prolonged exposure to PTSD, CBT, Addictions, Grief and Loss, and has 34 years of experience in her profession of social work which includes 12 years in this specialized area.

When protectors become bullies. 2:00

Linda offers a wide range of services for all professions, trades, industries, institutions, and Communities. This includes trauma-informed consultations, coaching, training for leadership, staff, adult students or others, and a repair and recovery clinic for complainants, witnesses, and respondents. The clinic offers a safe, confidential, nonjudgmental, space for groups or individuals to receive support, education, training, advocacy, coaching, and/or treatment for their psychological injuries. Due to the complex nuances involved in these cases, Linda is continually identifying gaps in services and knowledge within all workplace systems, offering services to fill those gaps, and creating a worldwide network of resources. Linda’s main goal is prevention along with early and effective interventions to prevent further harm, and repair options.

Quote: “It starts with our words, but our words are then connected to those other concrete concerns that we can actually point to in the world.” Emily Nichols

Words shape our world. You know when someone says “Hey guys”, and they're referring to a group of differently gendered people? Most of us don’t even notice, but in this day and age, we really do need to be more aware of the language we use to avoid excluding or offending anyone. On this episode of Authentic Living with Roxanne, we’re excited to welcome Emily Nichols to talk about her experience as a woman in engineering and how gender parity impacts the workplace.

This was such a great interview packed with so much interesting information about workplace conflict that we decided to turn it into a 2-part series. Be sure to tune in again next week for part II.

Speaking from the stage or the factory floor, Emily works with organizations that want to equip their technical teams with human skills, so they can be better problem solvers, team players, and leaders. A professional engineer with decades of experience in manufacturing, Emily easily connects at all levels of organizations, inspiring deeper understanding and collaborative teamwork. And she makes learning fun!

Emily has a B.Sc. in Systems Engineering (University of Guelph) and a M.A.Sc. in Chemical Engineering (McMaster University). She summarized her master’s thesis in five Dr. Seuss rhymes.

Quote: “I am in control of how I respond to that situation. I can’t change the other person so much as I can change and handle myself.” Carolyn Treviño Jenkins

Most of us have experienced some type of exclusion in our lives at one time or another and know the pain of feeling “less than”. Systemic Barriers are obstacles that place unequal value on individuals and communities and include racism, poverty, disparities in health, education and the criminal justice system. Many in society today are desperately trying to improve inclusion, but we still have a very long way to go. On this episode of Authentic Living with Roxanne, we are happy to welcome Carolyn Treviño Jenkins to share her lived experiences of different systemic barriers and how she has overcome adversity and created something wonderful to help others.

Carolyn is co-founder & CEO of We Are Here, a start-up blending human guidance and technology to help individuals affected by cancer reduce the impact to their finances, emotions and fatigue in order to improve outcomes. Carolyn is a serial tech entrepreneur and a cancer survivor. As a technology executive, she has led companies that won international recognition for outstanding customer success, as well as national awards for growth and cutting-edge work in people management. With over 25 years of experience, she has led companies through economic downturns, as well as through rapid growth (organic and MA). As a serial entrepreneur, she has co-led multiple companies through successful fund raises and profitable exits with up to 10x return on capital.

Quote: “My summary of what resilience is, is that it’s not bouncing back…it’s about growing through.” Mark Black

Managing change is not always easy, but it is necessary in order to grow and maintain a healthy and resilient mindset. On this episode of Authentic Living with Roxanne, we’re thrilled to welcome Mark Black to share his story of embracing adversity to thrive through change and talk about his brand-new book, The Resilience Roadmap.

Mark is a heart and double-lung transplant recipient, turned 4-time marathon runner. A resilience expert, coach, and author, he helps people “Thrive in Challenging Times.” His programs provide the tools to transform your adversity into your advantage. Mark doesn’t just teach resilience, he embodies it. Born with a life-threatening heart defect, Mark underwent two open-heart surgeries before the age of one. He battled his condition and its limitations for twenty-two years until he was forced to deal with the biggest obstacle of his young life.

His doctor informed him that his heart was failing, and without a rare and dangerous heart and double-lung transplant, he would not see his 25th birthday. In 2002, Mark was fortunate that a suitable donor was found. He not only survived the surgery, but less than 3 years later, Mark became the only man in history to run a marathon with someone else’s heart and lungs.

Authentic Touch Points:

• Mark’s long and arduous health journey. 3:00
• It’s part of my “normal”. 7:30
• Don’t worry about what you can’t control. 11:00
• Connecting with, not comparing stories. 18:00
• Quiet reflection breeds acceptance. 22:00
• The Resilience Roadmap. 24:30
• Resilience is formed by making mistakes. 30:00
• Adaptability tips for leaders. 34:00

Mark is now a Certified Speaking Professional, a designation held by less than 1000 speakers in the world. He has inspired more than 150,000 people in more than 450 presentations and has worked with global brands including Exxon Mobil and Mercedes Benz, as well as many national and regional associations. Mark lives in Moncton, New Brunswick, Canada where he spends as much time as possible with the most important people in his life; his wife Marise and their three children.

I am doing my virtual book launch on Tuesday, June 27th at 12:00 pm ET and invite you to join me, even if you can only stop by for a few minutes.
