The social good magazine is designed to inspire others to make a difference in
their communities.
Created by Kristen Thomasino.
This show and magazine showcases the stories of people making a positive
impact in their neighborhoods.
And beyond, whether it's through volunteering, fundraising or simply
lending a helping hand.
These individuals remind us that we can all make a difference.
(00:21):
The social good magazine is the perfect tool for anyone seeking inspiration to
get involved in their community.
Hi, I'm your host, Kristen Thomasino from the social good magazine show.
On this episode, we're reviewing the world women forum 2023
in Paris, France.
(00:43):
This event was hosted by star icon conferences.
They got together global participants from around the world to share ideas
about how we can attain global peace.
I was excited to attend not only as a speaker and a keynote, but also as an
attendee to learn and listen from all the fantastic speakers that came from
(01:03):
all over the world to share ideas about how we can win as a cute community.
So I hope that you'll enjoy this episode and listen to some of the great
minds that I've been able to discover, while interviewing various social good
warriors along the way.
Thanks again to star icon conferences for a fantastic event
hosted just outside of Paris, France and easily accessible to the Charles de
(01:27):
gall airport.
The zenitude span hotel was the perfect venue for our conference to share ideas
about global peace
and Willie war rougau.
(01:48):
She called me and said, Kristen, can you come and help me?
My father who's a diplomat is asking for help because the russians are
coming and killing our people and raping our women.
Do you hear me?
It's been a year plus,
so I worked with them to figure out how to get people out.
(02:17):
Because you're the CEO of the company.
We're sometimes so busy
looking for other ways to make a profit that we forget those people who are
really taking care of
the organization for us.
So again, let them know that they are valuable to you, and that you want to
help them progress in their careers.
(02:38):
Because when I went into the hospitality industry,
I didn't really know that I wanted to do that job.
I was insure, I was out of high school, and I was like, oh, let me go here.
Because where I live that's our bread and butter
We are home to the world that speeches it is a tourist destination.
(03:00):
Sometimes people have to save an entire year to travel.
Where I live, it is, studies of the Bahamas quit.
Right?
And so could you imagine?
When they get there?
We sell sunset and see
what I'm experiencing here in tires with my night hole wrap up.
We don't have that.
(03:20):
We have some our all year long.
And so when we wait for you to come to visit us.
We give you everything
from you, land.
We give you
love, joy, peace, tranquility,
because that's what we sell.
Ok?
So because of that, I serve that in my organization, because we are of
(03:44):
hospitality, destination,
generational thing.
Maybe some lead you not even aware of that.
So just to make you aware, before I start, this is that there will be very
controversial slides in this presentation.
This is not to
upset you or to, but it may trigger some woundedness.
(04:06):
This presentation is to wake you up,
because it's as leaders, we are women and leaders, and our time is now.
We risk.
We have multiple roles.
(04:28):
If our mission is empowerment,
then we need to leave by some day.
Boo, let me repeat that.
Yes, we need to lead by exactly.
Do you know?
Ok,
I'm going to go back just for another minute, and to talk about
my experience.
Years ago, I walked into a room
(04:49):
similar to this,
and
I was very intimidated, because it was a professional networking organization,
and I did not have a network.
I didn't know what to do or what to say.
But I humbly listened, and I took a chance,
and I surrounded myself
by amazing women,
(05:11):
and actually had a lot of.
I actually had mail mentors and sponsors,
ok?
I surrounded myself by a very strong network of people that lifted me up
when I needed the help, and eliminated me and allowed me to become successful
in my career path.
Ok?
(05:32):
And where I am coming from,
to look at the skin anatomy from a very high level, perspective
colorism impact, skin lightning
health, hazards and self love and self admiration.
Just my hope for every girl around the world, regardless of the color of your skin.
(05:55):
So
as you look at the skin anatomy, you'll see a number of, you see three layers.
Each layer represents the skin.
Our body is meant to take care of this stuff.
Disease in women.
And breast cancer is living because of that prominent
(06:16):
of really work in
stuff he's becoming.
Why?
Eight?
We may develop best answer during their lifetime.
The local health organization
here's report, the India,
around 2.3
diagnosis or breast cancer.
(06:37):
And see, finally, 5000
days on the book.
And left
yusor
campaign, where I call Chambers of commerce with another partner, and I'm
trying to bring in Chambers of commerce all over the United States to say,
there are best practices that we need to be coaching and teaching in our
communities so that we can change, because our communities are making us
(06:59):
sick in America.
Yeah, they are.
So
there's six like this, that are examples from my case, that make a
difference in how we look at
what happened.
There are other things, though, that I did that were really unique practices
that change the game for me.
(07:19):
And this is why I've got to speak out, and I've got a coach and teach people.
Because the doctor isn't within to go into the doctor's office, isn't the day
you're cured.
The day that you go in and do the work is the day that you start healing.
And so you've got to do the work
and when you're doing the work, you've got to look at different things.
(07:42):
I mean, for me, I fell down fifteen feet of stairs.
My spinal cord.
I couldn't even sit in a chair for longer than five minutes without
feeling shooting pain everywhere.
I'd be jerkin around like this at a point.
Can you imagine trying to be in a meeting and hold it together?
You know?
(08:02):
And I was a sales leader, right?
So I negotiate deals and coach people on pitches and how to speak and do all
kinds of things, right?
That changed.
So these are just some of the things.
But one of the other main ones that really inspired me to stop my career,
to retire from what I was doing before, to give up all these things that I had earned
(08:27):
after working for a very long time, building something to healthy economy
with an amazing team.
Then I went to having to be stabbed with Needles every day, every week,
excuse me for 66 weeks straight
into my muscle knots, to stop my body from contracting
(08:48):
and tremoring.
And that really saved my life.
Now, imagine this.
My best friend did the therapy on it.
I mean, she owned a physical therapy practice.
Can you imagine the pressure, coming to and say, Dr.
Tato who's one of my best friends.
Can you please save me?
Oh, my god.
And at this point,
(09:11):
we
did whatever, and it worked.
A lot of people feel shooting pain down their hands, and other things.
I'd say, doctor, I feel this way.
Can you help me?
And she put the needle in, and it would stop the pain in my hands,
that the needle would be up here, because the muscle is contracted up here.
(09:32):
So there's a connection that we have to look at, and a mechanics to our form.
And an education needs to happen.
So that's why I'm telling this story.
The other thing
that i'll challenge you all to do is just to take those away from my
personal story.
And then I'm going to tell you a little bit about the business sign of what I'm
doing for a global campaign.
(09:53):
But these are, these are the kind of takeaways here.
Number one, nutrition, just look at what you're eating every day.
Think about how it makes you feel.
Notice whether or not you feel a headache, or you feel weak or tired, or
you get visual disturbances.
Sometimes people get auditory disturbances.
You're hearing.
These sticks are happening to us sometimes because of the inputs that
(10:16):
you're putting in your body period,
that's why it's happening.
You've got to pay attention if you're a data scientist
from an environment side.
I mean, look, if you're in a really stressful environment
and you've had accident and injury or chronic illness,
I mean,
I don't know, your life matters.
(10:38):
What are you doing?
You have retirement line.
Can you get access to a credit line?
Can you take a personal lung out?
Think differently, because your life matters,
because once it gets worse,
it's going to take a long time.
I mean, it literally has taken me years
to rehabilitate my body
(10:59):
to stand here today, to be at the level of fitness that I met now,
years
and mental capacity, too.
Because you cannot be in high levels of pain for that long time without your
brain beginning to start to decline.
That's what happens.
So those are some of the things.
And then I'd ask you guys to think about two, like, what do you do at
home?
(11:19):
You know?
What are the things that you're doing that help you?
Now, for me, I had to have home tools.
I had muscle spasms every day, and not so over my body.
So that meant that the blood flow wasn't going all of the places that it
needed to.
Well, guess what?
Everybody, no matter who you are, needs blood flow.
(11:40):
If you don't have blood flow, your cells died and now perform.
So I found mechanical tools that could literally help me push the blood flow
through my body and at least market.
If you don't know who you've been affirmed by
(12:00):
you, you would not be able to walk it out.
Some ladies,
a lot of times
those girls need to be affirmed by.
This
causes people to take advantage of.
(12:21):
So we want to ask for help,
asking for help.
And receiving health is not as my weakness.
It is knowing your strengths.
It's noting your weaknesses, and going out there and doing something about it
as a shortly thought, hey, why aren't?
Why are we leaving with a pugitive
thought process when we should be leading and in support of energy?
(12:43):
So wanted to become more charming, formed, whenever that matter, talk more
about that, philosophically speaking.
So we wanted to be more supportive.
We've lifting people up from their direct service positions, give them
opportunity to grow within the wing
and what the brain is doing behind the scene, so to speak, not a pair of three
fundamental cortex.
(13:03):
But back in the unconscious
it's pulling, in the damn it's violent it's deleting is boarding.
And a little bit about this globality of the cortex, he would actually kind
of notice it.
That person, are they were going to join the sort of thing could they
actually put close on to day that will cross your consciousness?
And so the reason that this is happening is because
(13:25):
hundreds of thousands of years ago, when we lost our tail and we stood
around, the most basic part of our brain have developed, was back here,
our lipid branch, and his function is to keep unsafe.
So what this tells us is, when we meet somebody for the first time and they, thus,
we want to be really mindful on our nerves.
(13:47):
Ah, but we also really want to be even more mindful
of artificial expression.
Our pash.
Do I look engaged or hear what pet of word?
How is that person
interacting?
How is that person engaging with me?
What is that person saying to?
And do I feel where lang versus life or life, and mine, or we're not at all like?
(14:13):
And again,
I can feel very much alike with someone who's been discriminated against, even
though I have the bonus of having white skin there's a lot of discrimination
I've never seen by snow, I've seen a drug for each other.
So that's the basic power on this fire.
(14:34):
As people, citizens around fifty countries, it's called global trends
twain 23
and quantified the world divide
on many topics, from climate to technology, from inequality to
geopolits, and from globalization to systemic well being.
Anyway, all of this is called
(14:54):
multiple structural crisis,
a Polly crisis.
If you move to the next one, the politicis profits are atom.
Tools describes it as a situation where the whole is more dangerous than the
sum of the parts.
And I think we have to be opening our eyes on this as well, and feel a sense
(15:17):
of responsibility there.
Because in this poly crisis world,
it is critical
to realize on which concern we can act as a person and on which of those we
must act as a leader.
And create red birth or birth.
(15:38):
Where there is a danger,
we have dangers everywhere.
So we have a responsibility
to
make things reverse and to create something new.
As far as I'm concerned, my personal experience and knowledge prides me to
fight for the births and regirst.
Related to mainly three topics, inclusion, technology, and climate,
(16:01):
because this is more backpacked background.
And I believe these are really three topics that are interconnected, and
governments do a lot, but it's allowed with companies and people to move forward.
Now take technology, data and AI, which is the core of our sexes, in their
check enabled translation, and are more profitable than the average of this
(16:23):
sector by 193
percent.
This is all ok, only 22 percent.
And actually this performance is likely to be sustainable
with a human reverse kind of approach.
Now, on the other,
everybody knows that
(16:46):
quaint based syndrome,
normally, when a woman is promoted to a leadership role,
and they have this ipman, when someone was talking about the masculine versus
famine and managing, and they have this masculine energy,
right?
Because we've been taught
that in order for us to make it as leaders,
(17:09):
we need to behave
in a certain way which is similar to our male comabots
in order for us to be respected
and in order for us to be able to succeed as leaders.
It's not true,
because the natural femininity
of women
(17:30):
as leaders brings about things like apathy,
balance and understanding.
Because we naturally nurture, we care.
And so these things are needed in the leadership space.
But when we take no friendships, whether you're entering into business
partnership, whether you're receiving a calling and saying, yes, I will go and
(17:54):
I will serve
step in with both feet.
One foot for openness is that I invite you, if you're willing to stand with
mander this?
Yeah, it's a powerful doing,
the powerful representation
for you all in, this, to me, is all in, exactly inspired by hers and love to blush.
(18:15):
right.
One put in for openness.
I meant I'm open to the calling.
I'm open to the work.
I'm a yes.
I'm willing to trust, I'm willing to say yes.
I'm willing to go
and I'm in my power.
I don't apologize for what I'm here to do.
I don't apologize, as I was made to be.
I'd apologize for what I'm asked to do.
I don't apologize for the way that I've been called to do it, and apologize my
(18:38):
personality and apologize my parents.
I'm apologize my style.
Ooh, yes,
and I love you.
And yes, it's not an energy of.
Therefore I reject
any feedback.
I'm open.
So will you take a step forward with one foot?
Let's begin with the left one.
You're open
(19:00):
and say, if you want
no content from open
and with your second foot, your right foot, say,
and I want it.
Do you feel that?
Yeah, we're all in.
You're all in
with fulness of feminine power, not to the spake.
Power.
(19:20):
If I'm desperate for you to like me, or I reject you, because I'm scared you'll
hurt me, and I'm calling myself cockle because of it, I already know I'm
powerful and I own and trust myself in any situation.
Therefore I can do whatever I'm ask to do, whatever I'm called to do.
What I run here to do
let's go
(19:43):
get to my kids with you.
I hope you will have the courage to go forward and do whatever
to do.
Both eat.
They didn't want me.
Now, my grandmother,
the kind, Loving, sweet,
genuine woman
(20:03):
I wasn't disgraced.
Little did I know, little did six year old me know that's different was in
fact going to the best thing that could have ever happened to me.
I'd assay it.
(20:24):
I only had three head adult.
I did not speak English.
So no English, no money and no connection.
Fully understand,
and I have to learn everything very fast.
But I don't want to work at the massage place or tyra restaurant.
(20:48):
Or
I have a master degree in Indian classical dancs and ambassadors in
dance.
So I had to do it very, very indeed,
which is hard to find a food hug job in the United States.
The professor
guess, teaching at the university
(21:11):
at many places in the United States.
However,
there's no job.
I work at a theater in Thailand before, before I quit a job and move here.
day rater said, when you move to United States, you're going to end up working
at a grocery store, putting people who live
and look into her eyes.
(21:33):
And I said, no, notice,
it's not like working in the grocery is bad, but it doesn't serve my purpose.
I know I not am called to do better.
So I have to learn everything.
Very pretty.
I can see you all to go all in meeting.
So,
(21:54):
I'm already from Thailand.
And I lived in phoenix, arisada,
on Monday.
Travel to Paris.
I got up in the morning.
I know everything that I pack.
In my suitcase, I bought a lot of fashion, beside a cloth.
And I thought, I have my medographer right here.
(22:15):
He is like personal geographer, and followed me everywhere I let me celebrity
plan, that listening out some time in the afternoon to go to Paris
a lot of picture and content.
And guess my no,
that last night when I arrived,
my soul wasn't here and inspire as much woman, as many a woman as I can in my life.
(22:41):
Because
during my experience, I went through that hard path.
And, as I said, is not easy to talk about myself.
But from another hand, it's likely who I am.
And look at me, I will be promptly there.
(23:03):
Without her.
Seriously.
My path,
to begin with,
I was left as a small baby,
only half
what you will choose,
(23:24):
well,
love or money.
It was a very small
experiment.
And my research.
And before I would start to do my speech,
(23:45):
why I did that,
to understand better
my fashion,
while talking about money and flowers, I would like to tell stories about my
health.
What path I went?
who live all the dimensions?
Is always easy to talk about, as a,
(24:05):
say myself, about flying stories.
But what about myself?
So
they do.
How then an addiction and people's copy mechanisms
that is being exacerbated,
dream, the pandemic, the lockdowns of that enforced control,
(24:27):
not giving people the right to tune into their own wisdom.
Their own and children's knowing and to make their own choices.
That is a god given white
woo.
Evidence suggests that chronic psychological stress
(24:49):
the autonomic nervous system,
putting us into survival mode,
compromises the immune system,
disrupts our heart's rhythm
and leads us to think and act in ways that are fearful,
scattered,
confused,
believing and feeling.
(25:10):
We are separate
from the mouth,
peaceful
and courage
that is always accessible
with an outrude self.
And many of us are, hopefully you're going to stitch international state
when it wasn't that this empower skin never.
(25:32):
And
to overcome it.
Because wherever you go in this world,
you must be bold.
You must know that you're worth you.
You must know that you're valuable,
said that
you are what a god strides the shore.
(25:55):
Come on, that's what he said in his word.
You're chosen.
And I want you to know that to day and for the rest of this conference and for
the rest of your life, don't let
ever tell you less than what the word says about you.
You're smashing.
(26:17):
I know what rejection feels like
from birth.
And telling a bit about
my story,
before I get any into my notes
for maybe many people.
I've also heard some people of the cattle in community.
(26:38):
This teacher's
maneuvering
gritted from, to
my talk, is concerned to sixty more of them.
(26:59):
This is
in a literature,
discussing fiction harassment.
And not want to debate on today's opinions,
as meeting movement clearsmen
is still
(27:21):
a big problem to resolve.
Here I focus on an American woman writer
acted in the latter half of touchment last century,
find her
subviver
(27:42):
a session, harassment
in
professional training.
The question happier for you is, how
can we detect it?
(28:04):
Do you think there's a tool maybe that exists somewhere?
Like if we see a neighbor that we think may be in danger,
or if we may feel in danger,
I think of this, are isolating ourselves.
Yeah, your f.
Alice that's one of the signs
that may not be labeled as bias may have.
(28:28):
yes, yes.
Like what
we got, emotional, molecule gas like?
Or?
Yeah, yes.
I believe that.
Brand new people, verbal.
Yeah, that may.
Can you think of all the sectors maybe where this takes place?
Yeah, because we've talked about home with this men are doing is horrific.
(28:52):
So here's my friend, Ms.
Ukraine, in her story in Hollywood, excuse me, West Hollywood,
distinguished the Rex
she's asking for help.
She really is.
I don't let people bully other people.
(29:13):
And I hope that you all won't either.
And I am the granddaughter of a dd Dave, five vesher and machine gutter
who fought the Nazis.
And that was real too.
He was drafted.
So I implore you, especially here in Europe, to take action,
to think of the ways in which we can stop this war and encourage global
(29:34):
peace with the russians, because their people are suffering as well.
And we need to find a way.
And I think that we've got the people here
that can do that.
And once people come to me and keep telling me that horrific things are
happening to their people, and I'm meeting ukrainians coming across the
border, I have met now men and women who are helping these people.
(29:58):
I have been connecting into networks
on Facebook groups, and finding millions of people who are trying to
help these causes.
So there are things that we can do, and we cannot stamp on.
We cannot just stand in the streets either and hold a candle and be like, yay,
we did it.
You don't do anything.
Those people are still over there, being raped,
(30:21):
being killed,
being bombed
in what kind of place.
Launches 100 missiles a day,
100 missiles.
That's just one city.
You can't turn a blind eye to that and just listen to music anymore.
So that's pretty much what I'm asking for, is for all of listen to some of
these top minds to think about in social good magazines, to listen to the
(30:45):
star icon conference listeners, and to know that we can do this.
And thank you to sar for creating a venue like this.
Because this is the media that we need.
We need to build up the work of all the students and community that are in this
room to amplify what you all are doing to help and coach, get louder for all
(31:07):
of us,
so that we can bring the piece.
So thank you all for giving me some time to tell you about some success stories.
Please remore the social good magazine.
I've got examples in here, people that have worked with the presidents.
So in the end, I did my international speech, and I make lots of contacts.
(31:27):
And so just when I think about the opportunity that we have,
the real story here is how we get out, and we start getting into events again
and networking in mass.
So thank you for the opportunity to be here in Paris,
wow.
What a journey.
And I want to share with you some highlights with some of the new friends
that I've made in contacts.
One of the fun things was going around and seeing the sites.
(31:50):
And when you go to a conference, you can make new friends.
And so sometimes when you're in a city, even if you go alone, it's awesome,
because there are other people who went alone or even with others.
And you can join up with a group and go and see the sites too.
Who's going to want to miss out on the Eiffel Tower.
Anyway, we saw it even just for a second, and it was amazing.
So one of the things that I love about our conference is everybody still has
(32:13):
to eat.
And so there's lots of real time opportunities for you to sit with
others, to interact, to learn their story, to figure out why they're there,
and then to see if there's any ways that you can collaborate and create new opportunities.
So make sure to sit down at a meal time, eat your lunch, eat your
breakfast, go to dinners and make sure that you make the most of your
(32:34):
conference experience.
There's always going to be an opportunity to go off site, too often,
where sometimes people who are in the group want to be able to go out and try
a local cuisine off site of the actual hotel or the resort.
So definitely make the opportunity to go.
There's lots of ways to split the checks nowadays.
Just make sure that before you go everybody's clear on how that's going
(32:56):
to happen.
And then pick up an amazing local restaurant and be a patron and remind
yourself that you're in wherever that particular culture is, and to respect
what they have going on there, and to try new things, and to say, hey, what
is the favorite dish of the locals here?
is there anything that you would recommend?
(33:17):
And then, always, of course, be sure to tell people if you have allergies.
That's super important.
So one of the things that I think is pretty amazing is the ability to
interact with people from all over the world.
And that means that they're going to have different types of customs and
manners and traditions.
And so it's always important to bring your best manners, especially at a
business event.
(33:38):
And when you're learning and interacting with others.
You want to be able to have the best kind of experience where you could sit
and feel comfortable to share about who you are, why you're there, and also to
learn about who they are and why they're there.
And then to find out, are there opportunities for you to interact in
the future where you could create some positive outcomes?
(33:58):
So this is just a great opportunity.
One of the reasons why I love going to conferences is being able to sit around
meal times and get to know people.
One of the things that I appreciate about going to a French restaurant or
there are all these amazing dishes that the chef has specifically created for
that week.
And it's always based on typically what the produces that's available at the
(34:19):
markets, as well as access to seafood and meats.
And one of the things that, especially on a rainy, cold day, that's amazing is
just having a nice hot soup.
And so I got the traditional French line super, and boy did it hit the spot.
So one of the things I really appreciate about going into a
(34:39):
restaurant is being able to figure out and try the amazing flavors that the
chef has set up in each dish.
And what I love about Paris is you have just this
multitude of just amazing entrepreneurs there that have created
fantastic
cuisine experiences.
And as a tourist, you really come into this whirlwind of flavors and tastes
(35:05):
when you come into Paris.
And if you can just sit down and think about, wow,
what could I try that I've never had before, or something that I'd like to
see how this chef prepares,
this is a spot to do it and be ready to be wow, because
the meals here are just phenomenal.
(35:27):
I love to have sweets once in a while, and especially as a treat.
And I think that coming to Paris and attending a conference is a special
occasion.
So it's always great to try some of the local deserts and what the chefs can
whip up for.
You just make sure to save room from the other meals and eat slow, if you
need to, but enjoy every bite.
(35:48):
Because wow, this was just amazing.
So one of the things, that's another, just blessing from going out and
spending time in a conference setting, is the ability for people to interact
and meet people from all over the world,
you know, while you're waiting for your meal, why you're sitting in between
courses.
Be interesting.
Be curious.
(36:09):
Ask people questions about themselves,
share about you.
And you never know, you might make a new connection.
That's a new friend.
You might make a new business partnership.
You may one day create something together.
The amazing thing is that we have this ability to travel, to connect with one
another and to get the messages out.
(36:30):
That when we're interacting with one another like this,
we can create positive outcomes.
So don't be afraid.
Take a risk.
Sign up for a conference, go to a show,
share your ideas.
Be ready to get out there.
Because the world needs you.
People will inspire you.
(36:51):
People will listen to your story.
But one of the things that you have to be ready for is the transformation that happens
once you've received such amazing knowledge and experience.
And that's why, when I think about covering these types of events and
these types of
conferences, it's important for us to start to have this, be more on the
(37:15):
mainstream media, and for us to be sharing these types of experiences,
especially with our youth, so that they understand that, look, there are positive
things happening in our communities.
And there are things in places where you can get involved
so learn more about the world women form as well as other conferences
around the world, and find out ones that interest you and find a way to get
(37:37):
in.
And even if you're just an attendee to start that's ok,
be curious,
but get involved, because it's time to get out of our houses in time to get
back into meeting with one another face to face.
Thank you to the star icon conferences team for hosting such an amazing event
on international women's day for 2023
(37:59):
in Paris, France.
The world women's forum was truly an event that inspired and motivated
various individuals globally to unify and take action.
And in this day of divide and unrest, it's important for us to unify globally
with people of like minds
(38:20):
and focused on topics for social good.
Thank you for allowing the social good magazine show to cover your fantastic event.
And I hope to see you at other events hosted by star icon conferences,
bringing to you fantastic speakers and other highlights from this team's
fantastic events. 729 00:38:50,30 --> 00:38:50 The Social Good Magazine Show is produced by THOMASINO MEDIA LLC and

The social good magazine show is a beacon of hope for global communities,
filled with inspiring stories that illuminate pathways to success.
By sharing transformational concepts and taking action oriented steps
towards progress, we can collaborate on reducing, suffering together and
enjoying the journey along the way.
So let's use this magazine and show, as our road map, an opportunity to guide
(39:16):
each other in discovering victory over adversity.
The social good magazine is designed to inspire others to make a difference in
their communities.

lending a helping hand.
These individuals remind us that we can all make a difference.
(00:21):
The social good magazine is the perfect tool for anyone seeking inspiration to
get involved in their community.
Hi, I'm your host, Kristen Thomasino from the social good magazine show.
On this episode, we're reviewing the world women forum 2023
in Paris, France.
(00:43):
This event was hosted by star icon conferences.
They got together global participants from around the world to share ideas
about how we can attain global peace.
I was excited to attend not only as a speaker and a keynote, but also as an
attendee to learn and listen from all the fantastic speakers that came from
(01:03):
all over the world to share ideas about how we can win as a cute community.
So I hope that you'll enjoy this episode and listen to some of the great
minds that I've been able to discover, while interviewing various social good
warriors along the way.
Thanks again to star icon conferences for a fantastic event
hosted just outside of Paris, France and easily accessible to the Charles de
(01:27):
gall airport.
The zenitude span hotel was the perfect venue for our conference to share ideas
about global peace
and Willie war rougau.
(01:48):
She called me and said, Kristen, can you come and help me?
My father who's a diplomat is asking for help because the russians are
coming and killing our people and raping our women.
Do you hear me?
It's been a year plus,
so I worked with them to figure out how to get people out.
(02:17):
Because you're the CEO of the company.
We're sometimes so busy
looking for other ways to make a profit that we forget those people who are
really taking care of
the organization for us.
So again, let them know that they are valuable to you, and that you want to
help them progress in their careers.
(02:38):
Because when I went into the hospitality industry,
I didn't really know that I wanted to do that job.
I was insure, I was out of high school, and I was like, oh, let me go here.
Because where I live that's our bread and butter
We are home to the world that speeches it is a tourist destination.
(03:00):
Sometimes people have to save an entire year to travel.
Where I live, it is, studies of the Bahamas quit.
Right?
And so could you imagine?
When they get there?
We sell sunset and see
what I'm experiencing here in tires with my night hole wrap up.
We don't have that.
(03:20):
We have some our all year long.
And so when we wait for you to come to visit us.
We give you everything
from you, land.
We give you
love, joy, peace, tranquility,
because that's what we sell.
Ok?
So because of that, I serve that in my organization, because we are of
(03:44):
hospitality, destination,
generational thing.
Maybe some lead you not even aware of that.
So just to make you aware, before I start, this is that there will be very
controversial slides in this presentation.
This is not to
upset you or to, but it may trigger some woundedness.
(04:06):
This presentation is to wake you up,
because it's as leaders, we are women and leaders, and our time is now.
We risk.
We have multiple roles.
(04:28):
If our mission is empowerment,
then we need to leave by some day.
Boo, let me repeat that.
Yes, we need to lead by exactly.
Do you know?
Ok,
I'm going to go back just for another minute, and to talk about
my experience.
Years ago, I walked into a room
(04:49):
similar to this,
and
I was very intimidated, because it was a professional networking organization,
and I did not have a network.
I didn't know what to do or what to say.
But I humbly listened, and I took a chance,
and I surrounded myself
by amazing women,
(05:11):
and actually had a lot of.
I actually had mail mentors and sponsors,
ok?
I surrounded myself by a very strong network of people that lifted me up
when I needed the help, and eliminated me and allowed me to become successful
in my career path.
Ok?
(05:32):
And where I am coming from,
to look at the skin anatomy from a very high level, perspective
colorism impact, skin lightning
health, hazards and self love and self admiration.
Just my hope for every girl around the world, regardless of the color of your skin.
(05:55):
So
as you look at the skin anatomy, you'll see a number of, you see three layers.
Each layer represents the skin.
Our body is meant to take care of this stuff.
Disease in women.
And breast cancer is living because of that prominent
(06:16):
of really work in
stuff he's becoming.
Why?
Eight?
We may develop best answer during their lifetime.
The local health organization
here's report, the India,
around 2.3
diagnosis or breast cancer.
(06:37):
And see, finally, 5000
days on the book.
And left
yusor
campaign, where I call Chambers of commerce with another partner, and I'm
trying to bring in Chambers of commerce all over the United States to say,
there are best practices that we need to be coaching and teaching in our
communities so that we can change, because our communities are making us
(06:59):
sick in America.
Yeah, they are.
So
there's six like this, that are examples from my case, that make a
difference in how we look at
what happened.
There are other things, though, that I did that were really unique practices
that change the game for me.
(07:19):
And this is why I've got to speak out, and I've got a coach and teach people.
Because the doctor isn't within to go into the doctor's office, isn't the day
you're cured.
The day that you go in and do the work is the day that you start healing.
And so you've got to do the work
and when you're doing the work, you've got to look at different things.
(07:42):
I mean, for me, I fell down fifteen feet of stairs.
My spinal cord.
I couldn't even sit in a chair for longer than five minutes without
feeling shooting pain everywhere.
I'd be jerkin around like this at a point.
Can you imagine trying to be in a meeting and hold it together?
You know?
(08:02):
And I was a sales leader, right?
So I negotiate deals and coach people on pitches and how to speak and do all
kinds of things, right?
That changed.
So these are just some of the things.
But one of the other main ones that really inspired me to stop my career,
to retire from what I was doing before, to give up all these things that I had earned
(08:27):
after working for a very long time, building something to healthy economy
with an amazing team.
Then I went to having to be stabbed with Needles every day, every week,
excuse me for 66 weeks straight
into my muscle knots, to stop my body from contracting
(08:48):
and tremoring.
And that really saved my life.
Now, imagine this.
My best friend did the therapy on it.
I mean, she owned a physical therapy practice.
Can you imagine the pressure, coming to and say, Dr.
Tato who's one of my best friends.
Can you please save me?
Oh, my god.
And at this point,
(09:11):
we
did whatever, and it worked.
A lot of people feel shooting pain down their hands, and other things.
I'd say, doctor, I feel this way.
Can you help me?
And she put the needle in, and it would stop the pain in my hands,
that the needle would be up here, because the muscle is contracted up here.
(09:32):
So there's a connection that we have to look at, and a mechanics to our form.
And an education needs to happen.
So that's why I'm telling this story.
The other thing
that i'll challenge you all to do is just to take those away from my
personal story.
And then I'm going to tell you a little bit about the business sign of what I'm
doing for a global campaign.
(09:53):
But these are, these are the kind of takeaways here.
Number one, nutrition, just look at what you're eating every day.
Think about how it makes you feel.
Notice whether or not you feel a headache, or you feel weak or tired, or
you get visual disturbances.
Sometimes people get auditory disturbances.
You're hearing.
These sticks are happening to us sometimes because of the inputs that
(10:16):
you're putting in your body period,
that's why it's happening.
You've got to pay attention if you're a data scientist
from an environment side.
I mean, look, if you're in a really stressful environment
and you've had accident and injury or chronic illness,
I mean,
I don't know, your life matters.
(10:38):
What are you doing?
You have retirement line.
Can you get access to a credit line?
Can you take a personal lung out?
Think differently, because your life matters,
because once it gets worse,
it's going to take a long time.
I mean, it literally has taken me years
to rehabilitate my body
(10:59):
to stand here today, to be at the level of fitness that I met now,
years
and mental capacity, too.
Because you cannot be in high levels of pain for that long time without your
brain beginning to start to decline.
That's what happens.
So those are some of the things.
And then I'd ask you guys to think about two, like, what do you do at
home?
(11:19):
You know?
What are the things that you're doing that help you?
Now, for me, I had to have home tools.
I had muscle spasms every day, and not so over my body.
So that meant that the blood flow wasn't going all of the places that it
needed to.
Well, guess what?
Everybody, no matter who you are, needs blood flow.
(11:40):
If you don't have blood flow, your cells died and now perform.
So I found mechanical tools that could literally help me push the blood flow
through my body and at least market.
If you don't know who you've been affirmed by
(12:00):
you, you would not be able to walk it out.
Some ladies,
a lot of times
those girls need to be affirmed by.
This
causes people to take advantage of.
(12:21):
So we want to ask for help,
asking for help.
And receiving health is not as my weakness.
It is knowing your strengths.
It's noting your weaknesses, and going out there and doing something about it
as a shortly thought, hey, why aren't?
Why are we leaving with a pugitive
thought process when we should be leading and in support of energy?
(12:43):
So wanted to become more charming, formed, whenever that matter, talk more
about that, philosophically speaking.
So we wanted to be more supportive.
We've lifting people up from their direct service positions, give them
opportunity to grow within the wing
and what the brain is doing behind the scene, so to speak, not a pair of three
fundamental cortex.
(13:03):
But back in the unconscious
it's pulling, in the damn it's violent it's deleting is boarding.
And a little bit about this globality of the cortex, he would actually kind
of notice it.
That person, are they were going to join the sort of thing could they
actually put close on to day that will cross your consciousness?
And so the reason that this is happening is because
(13:25):
hundreds of thousands of years ago, when we lost our tail and we stood
around, the most basic part of our brain have developed, was back here,
our lipid branch, and his function is to keep unsafe.
So what this tells us is, when we meet somebody for the first time and they, thus,
we want to be really mindful on our nerves.
(13:47):
Ah, but we also really want to be even more mindful
of artificial expression.
Our pash.
Do I look engaged or hear what pet of word?
How is that person
interacting?
How is that person engaging with me?
What is that person saying to?
And do I feel where lang versus life or life, and mine, or we're not at all like?
(14:13):
And again,
I can feel very much alike with someone who's been discriminated against, even
though I have the bonus of having white skin there's a lot of discrimination
I've never seen by snow, I've seen a drug for each other.
So that's the basic power on this fire.
(14:34):
As people, citizens around fifty countries, it's called global trends
twain 23
and quantified the world divide
on many topics, from climate to technology, from inequality to
geopolits, and from globalization to systemic well being.
Anyway, all of this is called
(14:54):
multiple structural crisis,
a Polly crisis.
If you move to the next one, the politicis profits are atom.
Tools describes it as a situation where the whole is more dangerous than the
sum of the parts.
And I think we have to be opening our eyes on this as well, and feel a sense
(15:17):
of responsibility there.
Because in this poly crisis world,
it is critical
to realize on which concern we can act as a person and on which of those we
must act as a leader.
And create red birth or birth.
(15:38):
Where there is a danger,
we have dangers everywhere.
So we have a responsibility
to
make things reverse and to create something new.
As far as I'm concerned, my personal experience and knowledge prides me to
fight for the births and regirst.
Related to mainly three topics, inclusion, technology, and climate,
(16:01):
because this is more backpacked background.
And I believe these are really three topics that are interconnected, and
governments do a lot, but it's allowed with companies and people to move forward.
Now take technology, data and AI, which is the core of our sexes, in their
check enabled translation, and are more profitable than the average of this
(16:23):
sector by 193
percent.
This is all ok, only 22 percent.
And actually this performance is likely to be sustainable
with a human reverse kind of approach.
Now, on the other,
everybody knows that
(16:46):
quaint based syndrome,
normally, when a woman is promoted to a leadership role,
and they have this ipman, when someone was talking about the masculine versus
famine and managing, and they have this masculine energy,
right?
Because we've been taught
that in order for us to make it as leaders,
(17:09):
we need to behave
in a certain way which is similar to our male comabots
in order for us to be respected
and in order for us to be able to succeed as leaders.
It's not true,
because the natural femininity
of women
(17:30):
as leaders brings about things like apathy,
balance and understanding.
Because we naturally nurture, we care.
And so these things are needed in the leadership space.
But when we take no friendships, whether you're entering into business
partnership, whether you're receiving a calling and saying, yes, I will go and
(17:54):
I will serve
step in with both feet.
One foot for openness is that I invite you, if you're willing to stand with
mander this?
Yeah, it's a powerful doing,
the powerful representation
for you all in, this, to me, is all in, exactly inspired by hers and love to blush.
(18:15):
right.
One put in for openness.
I meant I'm open to the calling.
I'm open to the work.
I'm a yes.
I'm willing to trust, I'm willing to say yes.
I'm willing to go
and I'm in my power.
I don't apologize for what I'm here to do.
I don't apologize, as I was made to be.
I'd apologize for what I'm asked to do.
I don't apologize for the way that I've been called to do it, and apologize my
(18:38):
personality and apologize my parents.
I'm apologize my style.
Ooh, yes,
and I love you.
And yes, it's not an energy of.
Therefore I reject
any feedback.
I'm open.
So will you take a step forward with one foot?
Let's begin with the left one.
You're open
(19:00):
and say, if you want
no content from open
and with your second foot, your right foot, say,
and I want it.
Do you feel that?
Yeah, we're all in.
You're all in
with fulness of feminine power, not to the spake.
Power.
(19:20):
If I'm desperate for you to like me, or I reject you, because I'm scared you'll
hurt me, and I'm calling myself cockle because of it, I already know I'm
powerful and I own and trust myself in any situation.
Therefore I can do whatever I'm ask to do, whatever I'm called to do.
What I run here to do
let's go
(19:43):
get to my kids with you.
I hope you will have the courage to go forward and do whatever
to do.
Both eat.
They didn't want me.
Now, my grandmother,
the kind, Loving, sweet,
genuine woman
(20:03):
I wasn't disgraced.
Little did I know, little did six year old me know that's different was in
fact going to the best thing that could have ever happened to me.
I'd assay it.
(20:24):
I only had three head adult.
I did not speak English.
So no English, no money and no connection.
Fully understand,
and I have to learn everything very fast.
But I don't want to work at the massage place or tyra restaurant.
(20:48):
Or
I have a master degree in Indian classical dancs and ambassadors in
dance.
So I had to do it very, very indeed,
which is hard to find a food hug job in the United States.
The professor
guess, teaching at the university
(21:11):
at many places in the United States.
However,
there's no job.
I work at a theater in Thailand before, before I quit a job and move here.
day rater said, when you move to United States, you're going to end up working
at a grocery store, putting people who live
and look into her eyes.
(21:33):
And I said, no, notice,
it's not like working in the grocery is bad, but it doesn't serve my purpose.
I know I not am called to do better.
So I have to learn everything.
Very pretty.
I can see you all to go all in meeting.
So,
(21:54):
I'm already from Thailand.
And I lived in phoenix, arisada,
on Monday.
Travel to Paris.
I got up in the morning.
I know everything that I pack.
In my suitcase, I bought a lot of fashion, beside a cloth.
And I thought, I have my medographer right here.
(22:15):
He is like personal geographer, and followed me everywhere I let me celebrity
plan, that listening out some time in the afternoon to go to Paris
a lot of picture and content.
And guess my no,
that last night when I arrived,
my soul wasn't here and inspire as much woman, as many a woman as I can in my life.
(22:41):
Because
during my experience, I went through that hard path.
And, as I said, is not easy to talk about myself.
But from another hand, it's likely who I am.
And look at me, I will be promptly there.
(23:03):
Without her.
Seriously.
My path,
to begin with,
I was left as a small baby,
only half
what you will choose,
(23:24):
well,
love or money.
It was a very small
experiment.
And my research.
And before I would start to do my speech,
(23:45):
why I did that,
to understand better
my fashion,
while talking about money and flowers, I would like to tell stories about my
health.
What path I went?
who live all the dimensions?
Is always easy to talk about, as a,
(24:05):
say myself, about flying stories.
But what about myself?
So
they do.
How then an addiction and people's copy mechanisms
that is being exacerbated,
dream, the pandemic, the lockdowns of that enforced control,
(24:27):
not giving people the right to tune into their own wisdom.
Their own and children's knowing and to make their own choices.
That is a god given white
woo.
Evidence suggests that chronic psychological stress
(24:49):
the autonomic nervous system,
putting us into survival mode,
compromises the immune system,
disrupts our heart's rhythm
and leads us to think and act in ways that are fearful,
scattered,
confused,
believing and feeling.
(25:10):
We are separate
from the mouth,
peaceful
and courage
that is always accessible
with an outrude self.
And many of us are, hopefully you're going to stitch international state
when it wasn't that this empower skin never.
(25:32):
And
to overcome it.
Because wherever you go in this world,
you must be bold.
You must know that you're worth you.
You must know that you're valuable,
said that
you are what a god strides the shore.
(25:55):
Come on, that's what he said in his word.
You're chosen.
And I want you to know that to day and for the rest of this conference and for
the rest of your life, don't let
ever tell you less than what the word says about you.
You're smashing.
(26:17):
I know what rejection feels like
from birth.
And telling a bit about
my story,
before I get any into my notes
for maybe many people.
I've also heard some people of the cattle in community.
(26:38):
This teacher's
maneuvering
gritted from, to
my talk, is concerned to sixty more of them.
(26:59):
This is
in a literature,
discussing fiction harassment.
And not want to debate on today's opinions,
as meeting movement clearsmen
is still
(27:21):
a big problem to resolve.
Here I focus on an American woman writer
acted in the latter half of touchment last century,
find her
subviver
(27:42):
a session, harassment
in
professional training.
The question happier for you is, how
can we detect it?
(28:04):
Do you think there's a tool maybe that exists somewhere?
Like if we see a neighbor that we think may be in danger,
or if we may feel in danger,
I think of this, are isolating ourselves.
Yeah, your f.
Alice that's one of the signs
that may not be labeled as bias may have.
(28:28):
yes, yes.
Like what
we got, emotional, molecule gas like?
Or?
Yeah, yes.
I believe that.
Brand new people, verbal.
Yeah, that may.
Can you think of all the sectors maybe where this takes place?
Yeah, because we've talked about home with this men are doing is horrific.
(28:52):
So here's my friend, Ms.
Ukraine, in her story in Hollywood, excuse me, West Hollywood,
distinguished the Rex
she's asking for help.
She really is.
I don't let people bully other people.
(29:13):
And I hope that you all won't either.
And I am the granddaughter of a dd Dave, five vesher and machine gutter
who fought the Nazis.
And that was real too.
He was drafted.
So I implore you, especially here in Europe, to take action,
to think of the ways in which we can stop this war and encourage global
(29:34):
peace with the russians, because their people are suffering as well.
And we need to find a way.
And I think that we've got the people here
that can do that.
And once people come to me and keep telling me that horrific things are
happening to their people, and I'm meeting ukrainians coming across the
border, I have met now men and women who are helping these people.
(29:58):
I have been connecting into networks
on Facebook groups, and finding millions of people who are trying to
help these causes.
So there are things that we can do, and we cannot stamp on.
We cannot just stand in the streets either and hold a candle and be like, yay,
we did it.
You don't do anything.
Those people are still over there, being raped,
(30:21):
being killed,
being bombed
in what kind of place.
Launches 100 missiles a day,
100 missiles.
That's just one city.
You can't turn a blind eye to that and just listen to music anymore.
So that's pretty much what I'm asking for, is for all of listen to some of
these top minds to think about in social good magazines, to listen to the
(30:45):
star icon conference listeners, and to know that we can do this.
And thank you to sar for creating a venue like this.
Because this is the media that we need.
We need to build up the work of all the students and community that are in this
room to amplify what you all are doing to help and coach, get louder for all
(31:07):
of us,
so that we can bring the piece.
So thank you all for giving me some time to tell you about some success stories.
Please remore the social good magazine.
I've got examples in here, people that have worked with the presidents.
So in the end, I did my international speech, and I make lots of contacts.
(31:27):
And so just when I think about the opportunity that we have,
the real story here is how we get out, and we start getting into events again
and networking in mass.
So thank you for the opportunity to be here in Paris,
wow.
What a journey.
And I want to share with you some highlights with some of the new friends
that I've made in contacts.
One of the fun things was going around and seeing the sites.
(31:50):
And when you go to a conference, you can make new friends.
And so sometimes when you're in a city, even if you go alone, it's awesome,
because there are other people who went alone or even with others.
And you can join up with a group and go and see the sites too.
Who's going to want to miss out on the Eiffel Tower.
Anyway, we saw it even just for a second, and it was amazing.
So one of the things that I love about our conference is everybody still has
(32:13):
to eat.
And so there's lots of real time opportunities for you to sit with
others, to interact, to learn their story, to figure out why they're there,
and then to see if there's any ways that you can collaborate and create new opportunities.
So make sure to sit down at a meal time, eat your lunch, eat your
breakfast, go to dinners and make sure that you make the most of your
(32:34):
conference experience.
There's always going to be an opportunity to go off site, too often,
where sometimes people who are in the group want to be able to go out and try
a local cuisine off site of the actual hotel or the resort.
So definitely make the opportunity to go.
There's lots of ways to split the checks nowadays.
Just make sure that before you go everybody's clear on how that's going
(32:56):
to happen.
And then pick up an amazing local restaurant and be a patron and remind
yourself that you're in wherever that particular culture is, and to respect
what they have going on there, and to try new things, and to say, hey, what
is the favorite dish of the locals here?
is there anything that you would recommend?
(33:17):
And then, always, of course, be sure to tell people if you have allergies.
That's super important.
So one of the things that I think is pretty amazing is the ability to
interact with people from all over the world.
And that means that they're going to have different types of customs and
manners and traditions.
And so it's always important to bring your best manners, especially at a
business event.
(33:38):
And when you're learning and interacting with others.
You want to be able to have the best kind of experience where you could sit
and feel comfortable to share about who you are, why you're there, and also to
learn about who they are and why they're there.
And then to find out, are there opportunities for you to interact in
the future where you could create some positive outcomes?
(33:58):
So this is just a great opportunity.
One of the reasons why I love going to conferences is being able to sit around
meal times and get to know people.
One of the things that I appreciate about going to a French restaurant or
there are all these amazing dishes that the chef has specifically created for
that week.
And it's always based on typically what the produces that's available at the
(34:19):
markets, as well as access to seafood and meats.
And one of the things that, especially on a rainy, cold day, that's amazing is
just having a nice hot soup.
And so I got the traditional French line super, and boy did it hit the spot.
So one of the things I really appreciate about going into a
(34:39):
restaurant is being able to figure out and try the amazing flavors that the
chef has set up in each dish.
And what I love about Paris is you have just this
multitude of just amazing entrepreneurs there that have created
fantastic
cuisine experiences.
And as a tourist, you really come into this whirlwind of flavors and tastes
(35:05):
when you come into Paris.
And if you can just sit down and think about, wow,
what could I try that I've never had before, or something that I'd like to
see how this chef prepares,
this is a spot to do it and be ready to be wow, because
the meals here are just phenomenal.
(35:27):
I love to have sweets once in a while, and especially as a treat.
And I think that coming to Paris and attending a conference is a special
occasion.
So it's always great to try some of the local deserts and what the chefs can
whip up for.
You just make sure to save room from the other meals and eat slow, if you
need to, but enjoy every bite.
(35:48):
Because wow, this was just amazing.
So one of the things, that's another, just blessing from going out and
spending time in a conference setting, is the ability for people to interact
and meet people from all over the world,
you know, while you're waiting for your meal, why you're sitting in between
courses.
Be interesting.
Be curious.
(36:09):
Ask people questions about themselves,
share about you.
And you never know, you might make a new connection.
That's a new friend.
You might make a new business partnership.
You may one day create something together.
The amazing thing is that we have this ability to travel, to connect with one
another and to get the messages out.
(36:30):
That when we're interacting with one another like this,
we can create positive outcomes.
So don't be afraid.
Take a risk.
Sign up for a conference, go to a show,
share your ideas.
Be ready to get out there.
Because the world needs you.
People will inspire you.
(36:51):
People will listen to your story.
But one of the things that you have to be ready for is the transformation that happens
once you've received such amazing knowledge and experience.
And that's why, when I think about covering these types of events and
these types of
conferences, it's important for us to start to have this, be more on the
(37:15):
mainstream media, and for us to be sharing these types of experiences,
especially with our youth, so that they understand that, look, there are positive
things happening in our communities.
And there are things in places where you can get involved
so learn more about the world women form as well as other conferences
around the world, and find out ones that interest you and find a way to get
(37:37):
in.
And even if you're just an attendee to start that's ok,
be curious,
but get involved, because it's time to get out of our houses in time to get
back into meeting with one another face to face.
Thank you to the star icon conferences team for hosting such an amazing event
on international women's day for 2023
(37:59):
in Paris, France.
The world women's forum was truly an event that inspired and motivated
various individuals globally to unify and take action.
And in this day of divide and unrest, it's important for us to unify globally
with people of like minds
(38:20):
and focused on topics for social good.
Thank you for allowing the social good magazine show to cover your fantastic event.
And I hope to see you at other events hosted by star icon conferences,
bringing to you fantastic speakers and other highlights from this team's
fantastic events. 729 00:38:50,30 --> 00:38:50 The Social Good Magazine Show is produced by THOMASINO MEDIA LLC and
(38:53):
hosted by Kristen Thomasino.
The social good magazine show is a beacon of hope for global communities,
filled with inspiring stories that illuminate pathways to success.
By sharing transformational concepts and taking action oriented steps
towards progress, we can collaborate on reducing, suffering together and
enjoying the journey along the way.
So let's use this magazine and show, as our road map, an opportunity to guide
(39:16):
each other in discovering victory over adversity.
