250: Negotiating Through Transformational Advocacy
Almost everyone shies away from advocacy as a way to make a difference. We donate to climate change organizations, but we don't meet with a member of Congress or write a letter to the editor. We donate to anti-hunger organizations, groups dedicated to racial justice, and many others, but we don't become advocates on those issues beyond signing an online petition or going to an occasional rally. Why? Because most of us see advocacy as too hard or too frustrating, too complicated, or too partisan, too dirty or too time-consuming, too ineffective or too costly. But what if that's all wrong? What if deep engagement dissolves discouragement and can actually bring joy? What if you can become an advocate for a cause you care about and feel fulfilled, not frustrated? And what if engaging as an advocate is essential to protecting our democracy? In this episode, your host Cindy Watson will be joined by Sam Daley-Harris, Sam Daley-Harris founded the anti-poverty lobby RESULTS in 1980, co-founded the Microcredit Summit Campaign in 1995, and founded Civic Courage in 2012. The 2024 edition of his book Reclaiming Our Democracy: Every Citizen's Guide to Transformational Advocacy was named an editor's pick by Publisher's Weekly BookLife. Kirkus Reviews wrote: "Overall, [the author's] analysis of effective action is as persuasive as it is accessible, and his call to democratic participation is inspiring. A handbook for aspiring activists that readers will find to be both inspiring and practical." Daley-Harris has been interviewed on NPR's Here and Now and 1A and on PBS's Laura Flanders and Friends. Ashoka founder Bill Drayton said, "Sam Daley-Harris is one of the certified great social entrepreneurs of the last decades." Key takeaways: Why people shy away from advocacy? The difference between transactional advocacy and transformational advocacy. Advice to empower those losing faith in their ability to make a difference. The three things to look at in an organization. What is transformational advocacy and how to apply it in life? The three questions to ask when going to meet a member of parliament or a member of Congress who opposes their bill. Letting go of fear Key reasons why negotiations fail The key skills that mark a great negotiator or advocate Learn more about Sam Daley-Harris: Website: https://reclaimingourdemocracy.com/ LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/sam-daley-harris-b8bb796/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/sam.daleyharris/ Grab his book: Reclaiming Our Democracy on Amazon Barnes & Noble Bookshop.org If you're looking to up-level your negotiation skills, I have everything from online to group to my signature one-on-one mastermind & VIP experiences available to help you better leverage your innate power to get more of what you want and deserve in life.

As we journey through life, the inevitable passage of time brings challenges and opportunities. But what if aging could be more than just a stage to endure—what if it could be a source of joy? In today's episode, Cindy Watson sits with James Flaherty, affectionately known as Jim, to explore "Negotiating Aging With Joy." Once a high-powered international advertising writer and creative director in the bustling world of NYC's Madmen, Jim reinvented himself as the creator and innkeeper of a nationally renowned inn and conference center. Now in his 80s, he's penned four books and speaks passionately about aging cheerfully, leadership, and living life to the fullest. Jim's philosophy? You're only as old as you think you are. Tune in for an inspiring conversation on embracing the joy of aging! In this episode you will learn: The role mindset plays in getting more out of life. How important is purpose in living a long and joyful life? Tips to find more uplifting and soul-filling purposes. Why time is valuable? The importance of self-reflection. Tips how to handle agism. Tips for people who are feeling left out.
