Here we are once more with our very favorite Chris Block talking about everything from, being vaccinated and getting to the steam baths, to how we look at work and meetings post-pandemic. So much to talk about...

 How do we do meetings now that we know we don't always have to meet in person but meeting in person allows us to create community quicker, quoting  Peter Block ( no Relation)  From his book, The Structure of Community,   "Every time we meet is an opportunity to create the world we want to live, "  given that how do we then use these meeting spaces to address equity and inclusion and create the world that wants to live in, it is possible now we need to implement it. 
Finally, Chris updates us on his new position in San Fransisco the job he has been training for his entire life,  housing the homeless, feeling most days that they are making gains, given that there are actually resources available for this there is no reason not to house even those that have been neglected in the past. This is our moment as a society to step up and change the system and if he fails he is asking people to hold him accountable!  
Our last thought is on to. discuss the systemic issues that cause inequity, so you gentle listeners please join us in the conversation with ideas or thoughts on how to transform these systems with equity and inclusion!

Random Acts of Living

Host Emillia Noordhoek shares deeply personal, heartbreakingly poignant true stories about surviving personal loss and transforming trauma into “Random Acts of Living” a call to action to get her through some of her most challenging moments. Recounting an unusual childhood full of weird, wonderful and truly funny moments to loss and redemption as a very imperfect single mother, artist, partner and community activist, she explores the stories that appear in our lives in big and small ways, teaching us the joy of living and learning from day dreaming, singing out loud, being mischievous, to more serious endeavors such as art and music (both making and experiencing) community organizing, saving our democracy, social justice and climate change. We are all in this together and the stories that we tell and share with each other give us valuable insight into the state of our lives, both the public and private, because what seems random is really anything but! Emillia Noordhoek is a social entrepreneur, mentor, and artist having lived the last 13 years on the small island of Molokai, Hawaii. She is a co-founder of both Sust`aina ble Molokai and the Molokai Arts Center and currently finds herself in the Midwest in the middle of the global pandemic and personal crisis. Emillia has been deeply influenced by Native Hawaiian leaders through the Aloha `Aina movement integrating the values she was taught into her daily life. She seeks to find value and significance in the stories that shape our world and define us as members of this human race on the blue marble spinning in our universe. Join her every week for a unique take on living, breathing, and exploring our humanity through Random Acts of Living!
