  • How Do I Start A Business? (Part 2)
    Welcome to Hot Topics! Gabrielle Crichlow talks to Wendy Barlin about the tax requirements for starting a business.

    Who is Wendy Barlin?
    Wendy Barlin is more than an accountant. She is a Personal Business Manager and financial confidante. Her specialty is taking all the tedious financial chores off the shoulders of busy professionals and business owners so that they can focus on the areas where they excel. Her professional experience spans over ten years in the hospitality, entertainment, manufacturing, and retail industries. With her international background and an understanding of foreign trade, she brings rich sources of information to her clients' businesses. She and her team provide a full range of accounting, bookkeeping, and income tax services. Wendy is committed to her client's success. Whether establishing cost-cutting computer systems for them, negotiating with their banks or vendors, or analyzing their cash flow, she ensures that all financial decisions lead to greater profits. Growing up in Cape Town, South Africa, she graduated from the University of Cape Town with a double major in Accounting and Information Systems. By learning accountancy using pencils and paper rather than computers, she knew the intricacies of the information flow through the accounting system. This makes it easy for her to solve problems quickly. During a one-year break spent backpacking around the world in search of her dream, Wendy fell in love with the sparkle of the City of Angels and decided to make her home here. She is married to an American from a small town in Michigan. Wendy is a California Society of CPAs member and the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants. She served on various committees for the Jewish Federation of Los Angeles and is a mentor for the Jewish Vocational Services Mentor Program.

  • Double Standards (Part 2)
    Welcome to Hot Topics! Gabrielle Crichlow continues the discussion with guest and long-time friend Jonisha Jones about double standards between men and women when it comes to sex and relationships. We even touch on male victimhood.

    In this episode, Gabrielle Crichlow and Jonisha Jones discuss the issue of double standards in relation to sex and relationships. They explore the societal expectation for women to be conservative and docile, while men are expected to have multiple partners. The speakers suggest that this double standard may have originated from men and religious beliefs, but acknowledge that women have upheld these beliefs and judged other women for their sexual preferences. They argue that more conversations need to happen to question and dismantle these thought processes, and that men need to be involved in feminism to help change the narrative and switch these double standards. The speakers also discuss the issue of revenge porn and the need for more men to be involved in changing the narrative and helping with the discussion on these double standards. They emphasize the importance of teaching children about gender roles and not shaming people for their sexual preferences. The podcast highlights the need for continued conversations and awareness about the double standards surrounding sexuality and gender roles.
