  • Encore How Do Historical Narratives of Single Women Inform Us Today?
    Apr 30 2024
    People who are single and without children, comprise a growing, global demographic, and yet, these lived experiences remain largely unacknowledged vis-a-via the status quo. There is also a common tendency to perceive the emergence of single people without children, as being very recent. This perspective both eclipses historical literature depicting the lives and voices of single women, and furthers the invisibility of every day discrimination and inequity, based on reproductive identity and relationship status. What can we learn from these cultural narratives and the historic contexts in which they were written? Today, we are honored to be in conversation with Dr. Katherine Fama, who will share her in-depth work and perspectives on the historical narratives of single women in literature, and how these narratives relate and inform us today. Dr. Fama is the coeditor of Single Lives: Modern Women in Literature, Culture, and Film, and teaches in the School of English, Film, and Drama at University College Dublin. Tune in to learn more!

Ms. Lazu will share key insight, including her framework and process for moving from intention to impact, and how to move beyond transactional initiatives, to authentic, transformative racial equity, within the workplace. She will also address some of the key barriers faced by companies, which limit the potential impact of DEI work. Ms.Lazu will outline the stages DEI implementation and how to optimize this process to navigate beyond intentions, share ways to build belonging with communities, and the importance of creating Employee Resource Groups (ERGs) and internal equity goals.

  • Encore Menopause in Focus: The Embodied Experience of Postmenopause
    Apr 16 2024
    Tune in to the first episode in our new series, Menopause in Focus. In this series, we will discuss the range of menopausal onset and experiences, at different life stages, the missing and missed conversations prior to menopause, and the emerging awareness of the menopause in the workplace, and beyond. We will also delve into postmenopausal experiences, aging, and advocacy, which shares the lived experiences and impact of the symptoms and stages of menopause. We are grateful to have this conversation on the embodied experience of postmenopause, with the vibrant Stella Duffy. Stella is a psychotherapist, currently completing a doctorate in Existential Psychotherapy. Stella has been postmenopausal since chemotherapy for her first cancer in her mid-30s, and has a special interest in life after menopause, as a conversation sadly lacking in the prevalent current discourse. Join us for this in-depth conversation with Stella. She will share her personal and professional experiences, in meaningful and thought-provoking ways, reflective of her vast, diverse background and profound creativity.
