Lisa Bowman served as a top executive for the United Way, a nonprofit known for caring for others. A hotbed of harassment, Bowman endured abusive sexual harassment from a colleague for a while, but eventually spoke up. And when she did, she saw her department budget slashed, colleagues around her targeted, and was eventually fired by a CEO who later walked away with millions in donor donations.

She went to the United Way's Board of Directors, a group filled with representatives of organizations with strong anti-harassment policies and....you'll hear the rest of her story in this compelling episode.

Lisa is the author of "Harasshole: A Cautionary Tale of My Time at America's Favorite Charity", a book that's available at harasshole.com

A foreword from Lisa's book:

​"What makes this story different is that we hear, and are used to hearing, about these issues every day in every sector, entertainment, sports, the government and corporate America. We haven’t heard it much in the Non-Profit sector, and surely, it happens. What rings sad here is that these are the very people who are tasked with doing good for our larger society."

Gretchen Carlson
​Co-Founder Lift Our Voices, Female Empowerment Advocate, Journalist, Author

Ruthie's Table 4

Ruthie's Table 4

For more than 30 years The River Cafe in London, has been the home-from-home of artists, architects, designers, actors, collectors, writers, activists, and politicians. Michael Caine, Glenn Close, JJ Abrams, Steve McQueen, Victoria and David Beckham, and Lily Allen, are just some of the people who love to call The River Cafe home. On River Cafe Table 4, Rogers sits down with her customers—who have become friends—to talk about food memories. Table 4 explores how food impacts every aspect of our lives. “Foods is politics, food is cultural, food is how you express love, food is about your heritage, it defines who you and who you want to be,” says Rogers. Each week, Rogers invites her guest to reminisce about family suppers and first dates, what they cook, how they eat when performing, the restaurants they choose, and what food they seek when they need comfort. And to punctuate each episode of Table 4, guests such as Ralph Fiennes, Emily Blunt, and Alfonso Cuarón, read their favourite recipe from one of the best-selling River Cafe cookbooks. Table 4 itself, is situated near The River Cafe’s open kitchen, close to the bright pink wood-fired oven and next to the glossy yellow pass, where Ruthie oversees the restaurant. You are invited to take a seat at this intimate table and join the conversation.
