   S 5 Episode 8- Joy from Decency and Kindness

   In Episode 8 of Adelante Leadership, titled “Joy from Decency and Kindness,” we speak with Julio, an award-winning journalist, nonprofit-media veteran, and advocate for equitable storytelling. Julio previously served as president of the Pulitzer Prize-winning Futuro Media and founded Latino Rebels and The Latino Newsletter. His writing and commentary have appeared in The New York Times, The Washington Post, MSNBC, ESPN, and other major outlets. He currently works with Free Press to advance narrative change, rapid-response storytelling, and resource development. This conversation explores the connection between leadership, media, justice, joy, decency, and kindness. Julio reminds us that how we tell stories—and how we treat one another—can help transform communities and create space for more equitable leadership. Learn more about Julio and his work at The Latino Newsletter (https://thelatinonewsletter.org/), Latino Rebels (https://www.latinorebels.com/category/opinion/), and Free Press (https://www.freepress.net/). What would change in our communities if decency and kindness became central to the way we lead?

   S 5 Episode 7- Beyond Comfort: Reimagining Leadership

   Beyond Comfort: Reimagining Leadership with Dr. Alcalde In this episode of Adelante Leadership, we welcome Dr. Alcalde, author of What Your Comfort Costs Us. Born in Lima, Peru, Dr. Alcalde is an immigrant, mother, public health professional, writer, and anti-supremacist leader whose work spans philanthropy, academia, government, nonprofit organizations, and grassroots movements. Drawing from her lived experiences and professional journey, Dr. Alcalde invites us to examine how workplace cultures rooted in colonialism, patriarchy, and supremacy can cause harm and limit our collective potential. We explore the cost of comfort, the importance of empathy and solidarity, and the need to reimagine leadership and organizational culture. This episode challenges us to ask: Who benefits from our comfort, who carries its cost, and what would become possible if we created workplaces grounded in justice, care, creativity, and shared responsibility? https://www.mgalcalde.com/
