"The basic premise of the event is that hunters hunt rattlesnakes from the surrounding environment all across West Texas, and bring them into the roundup for the weekend. And during the roundup, these snakes are kept in a pit and then, one by one, beheaded and skinned in front of in front of audiences." - Elizabeth MeLampy Elizabeth MeLampy is a lawyer dedicated to animal rights and protection, and her passion for this work shines through in her latest book, Forget the Camel, the Madcap World of Animal Festivals and What They Say About Being Human . To research the book, Elizabeth traveled across the country, immersing herself in a wide range of animal festivals — from the Iditarod dog sled race to the rattlesnake roundup in Sweetwater, Texas. Elizabeth examines these festivals as revealing microcosms of our broader relationship with animals. Whether it's rattlesnake hunts, frog-jumping contests, ostrich races, or groundhog celebrations, these events reflect the ways humans use animals to express cultural identity, community pride, and historical traditions. Yet beneath the pageantry and excitement lies a deeper question: Is our fascination with these spectacles worth the toll it takes on the animals involved? With compassion and insight, Elizabeth invites readers to consider whether there’s a more ethical and empathetic way to honor our stories — one that respects both animals and the traditions they inspire. Please listen, share and read, Forget the Camel. It will be released on April 8th, 2025. https://apollopublishers.com/index.php/forget-the-camel/…

Nearly every business or enterprise sets a strategy and writes a business plan for what it wants to achieve over both the short and medium term. But have you ever thought about employing the same approach to your life and your career? It’s a really great way to think about what’s important to you and what it is you’d like to experience and achieve over the next 3-5 years and then to set some goals, objectives and milestones for how you’ll take yourself one step closer to those achievements over the next 12 months. This episode will take you through how to do that using the framework of a Personal Strategy Document. If you’ve listened to any of my previous podcasts you’ll know the emphasis I place on taking time out to think strategically and also to writing things down and there’s no better time to do this than at the beginning of a new year. As part of the process we’ll also look at deeper issues such as identifying your values, needs and strengths as well as areas of potential weakness that you might like to work on. I also discuss visualisation techniques, progress tracking, and accountability mechanisms to help ensure your progress towards success. 00:42 The Importance of Taking Time Out 05:03 Starting with Your Baseline 11:31 Understanding Your Needs 17:53 Reflecting on Achievements and Gratitude 22:54 Analysing Your Current Life 24:39 Identifying Weaknesses and Developmental Areas 27:32 Understanding and Applying Ikigai 35:39 Setting SMART Goals and Using the GROW Model 42:18 Maintaining Motivation and Accountability Personal Strategy Document Values, Needs, Strengths Spreadsheet Goal Setting Template For your goals you might also like to have a go with this Chat GBT link from Mind Valley https://chatgpt.com/g/g-675f2f2cd4e88191af9c72bdeb1092a1-goal-analysis-gpt-by-mindvalley Links to The Women’s Room – Legal Division: LinkedIn page https://www.linkedin.com/company/the-womens-room-legal-division/?viewAsMember=true YouTube Channel https://www.youtube.com/@Womens-Room-Legal-Division Website https://www.ericahandling.com/the-womens-room-legal-division/ I’d love to hear from you directly using the CONTACT link below about Contact Me https://www.ericahandling.com/contact-me/ any coaching questions you have or challenges that you’re facing any topics you’d like me to cover on the YouTube Channel, or if you have any suggestions about an amazing woman working in around the law I should interview on the Podcast https://feeds.captivate.fm/womens-room-legal-division/…

This is Part 2 of a two part podcast that explores the complex topic of differences between the sexes, both from a scientific and social/behavioural perspective. It uses gender/sex as a proxy for all types of difference and diversity. The topic is so important to me that I couldn’t fit it all into one episode, so I’ve split it into two parts.. Normally I would explore this topic in a workshop using some amazing improv actors to act out various workplace scenarios to highlight how men and women may think, behave and react differently in the workplace. In this podcast, Part 2, I talk through the scenarios that we’d generally act out to highlight some of these differences in action. Part 1 focuses on some of the science and research data relating to potential differences between the sexes. The aim of this workshop is to increase our understanding that the other human beings we interact with on a day to day basis may have very different backgrounds, thought processes, internal drivers, aims, desires and ways of approaching and reacting to issues. The more we can understand this and consider how differently people may think and feel, the more effectively we’ll be able to embrace true diversity that will deliver excellent results but also ensure that everyone in our workplace is living as fulfilled and as happy and productive existence as possible INCLUSIVE TEAM SLIDES Links to The Women’s Room – Legal Division: LinkedIn page https://www.linkedin.com/company/the-womens-room-legal-division/?viewAsMember=true YouTube Channel https://www.youtube.com/@Womens-Room-Legal-Division Website https://www.ericahandling.com/the-womens-room-legal-division/ I’d love to hear from you directly using the CONTACT link below about Contact Me https://www.ericahandling.com/contact-me/ any coaching questions you have or challenges that you’re facing any topics you’d like me to cover on the YouTube Channel, or if you have any suggestions about an amazing woman working in around the law I should interview on the Podcast https://feeds.captivate.fm/womens-room-legal-division/…

Consideration is given to understanding the psychological aspects of marketing and what might hold us back, as well as to some practical strategies that can help us to be effective in our approach to business development. The narrative underscores the importance of shifting from a hard-selling approach to one of influencing and persuading, applicable across professions from medicine to teaching. With personal anecdotes and experiences shared, the episode delves into overcoming the discomfort associated with outreach, employing a mindset shift towards engaging clients, and utilising positive psychological frameworks. Specific strategies discussed include setting priorities, being proactive, reframing internal dialogues, and the benefits of positive thinking in relationship-building. Practical tips like utilising CRM tools, scheduling regular business development activities, and engaging clients with a focused and empathetic approach are also covered. I encourage embracing rejection as a pathway to growth and challenge the misconception around introverts' ability in sales, advocating for a balanced approach that suits individual personalities. Overall, the episode is a comprehensive guide aimed at demystifying business development, offering actionable advice to increase success in client engagement and network building. 00:00 Welcome to Business Development Insights 00:17 The Psychology and Practicalities of Business Development 04:34 Overcoming the Fear of Rejection in Business Development 14:00 The Power of Positive Thinking in Marketing 20:23 Embracing Rejection and Building Resilience 21:36 Challenging the Introvert vs. Extrovert Sales Myth 22:43 The Ideal Sales Personality: Debunking Common Myths 23:34 Practical Tips for Effective Business Development 25:06 Understanding Different Partner Types in Professional Services 25:55 The Activator: A Model for Success in Business Development 27:48 Leveraging CRM and Personal Organisation for Business Growth 30:17 Adopting the Activator Mindset: Strategies and Tools 34:26 Creating a Client-Centric Approach in Sales and Marketing 37:57 Listening and Partnership: The Key to Winning Client Trust 43:16 Concluding Thoughts on Business Development Success Links to The Women’s Room – Legal Division: LinkedIn page https://www.linkedin.com/company/the-womens-room-legal-division/?viewAsMember=true YouTube Channel https://www.youtube.com/@Womens-Room-Legal-Division Website https://www.ericahandling.com/the-womens-room-legal-division/ I’d love to hear from you directly using the CONTACT link below about Contact Me https://www.ericahandling.com/contact-me/ any coaching questions you have or challenges that you’re facing any topics you’d like me to cover on the YouTube Channel, or if you have any suggestions about an amazing woman working in around the law I should interview on the Podcast https://feeds.captivate.fm/womens-room-legal-division/…
