Expanding Beyond the Workplace: Q&A
In this final Q&A episode of season three of the Demystifying Diversity Podcast, host Daralyse Lyons is joined by co-hosts Zack James and Azaria Keys as they share their lessons and takeaways from last week's episode: Expanding Beyond the Workplace: Creating a Better World. In this deeper dive into the overall impacts of DEAIB work on our society, the trio also reflects on the highlights of the season and discusses their plans to continue to take committed actions towards making the world more inclusive. This episode also incorporates Daralyse's interview with Temple University's Drew Allmond, who shares his ideas regarding how people can begin to work in their local communities, as well as ways to shift our interpretations of society to not allow the news and social media to negatively impact our values and psyches. In this episode, you will learn about: * How to begin making a difference in our communities, beyond the workplace. * How our impact does not need to be large in order to be noticed and effective. * The importance of challenging ourselves to seek and listen to opinions different from our own, to expose ourselves to a variety or perspectives and viewpoints. * How social media can be used as a tool to educate and share DEIAB material, and not just be a vehicle for misinformation and hate. * How to create self-care and not become overwhelmed, even while acknowledging that there is still much work to be done.

Expanding Beyond the Workplace: Creating A Better World
In this episode of the Demystifying Diversity Podcast, host Daralyse Lyons examines the role of diversity beyond the workplace and takes a deep dive into how issues of DEIAB impact our abilities to achieve what we want and need. Using Maslow's Hierarchy of Needs as a framework, Daralyse and her guest experts extrapolate about the importance of the different levels of human need and fulfillment, and share how factors like intersectionality of identity, bias, and socioeconomics either enable or limit people's ability to create happiness in their lives. In this episode, you will learn about: * Maslow's Hierarchy of needs, and how need-fulfillment is innately important to the human experience, regardless of identity. * How the intersectionality of one's identity and lived experiences help dictate their ability to realize their needs within Maslow's Hierarchy. * How our fears get in the way of us realizing our needs, let alone our desires. * How past experiences are informative, but do not ultimately dictate future outcomes when it comes to getting our needs met. * The role that individuals can play in supporting others in ascending the levels of Maslow's Hierarchy of needs. * The difference between wants and needs, and how most people ultimately want to be happy.
