Frequency Healing and Career Changes with Ambi Kavanagh

What do you do when flying high in your career and your world falls apart?

You pick up the pieces, heal yourself and move on with your next phase. What if it happens again? Rinse and repeat.

Just like there is spring, summer, fall, and winter in nature, we sometimes have to destroy before we can create again, so it goes into our lives.

In this episode, I talk with Ambi Kavanagh, a reiki master, astrologer, sound healer, and life coach. She considers herself a modern-day alchemist who serves as a positive change in people’s lives, and I can testify of that since I’ve attended several of her sound baths in person.

We discuss ways that sound (and yes, that includes music) can be a way to heal and change your emotional state of well-being when you intentionally use music to change your frequency and, thus, your emotions.

We also discuss how Ambi’s life has gone from being a high-profile media and entertainment lawyer in the UK to living in LA and doing what she’s doing now. She has a story that you need to hear. The fact that you are reading this means there is something in this episode you need to hear and share with your friends and family.

Reach out to Ambi through her website: https://alchemywithambi.com/ and grab a copy of her book: Chakras and Self-Care.

Greetings and Felicitations

Dan Levitt-Cheating in Baseball

Welcome to the Greetings and Felicitations, a podcast where I explore topics that might not seem directly related to compliance but influence our profession. In this episode, I visit Dan Levitt, co-author (with Mark Armour) of the book Intentional Balk: Baseball’s Thin Line Between Innovation and Cheating. Highlights include:

  • Competitive people will always seek an advantage. Legal or occasional otherwise.
  • Many at the forefront of innovation are also those who break the rules.
  • Baseball and cheating have a long history together.
  • Innovations from outside baseball can also present a temptation to cheat.
  • The reaction to cheating: change over time? Why different over different infractions?
  • Implicit cost-benefit analysis to cheating.
  • Why and when does cheating lead to chaos and controversy

Great Women in Compliance

Margarita Derelanko – She’s Going Places

Welcome to the Great Women in Compliance Podcast, co-hosted by Lisa Fine and Mary Shirley.

In late 2018, Mary and Lisa began advertising the launch of the Great Women in Compliance podcast, which would air on 6 December 2018.  Margarita Derelanko was one of the people who saw the marketing collateral and grew excited about the incoming podcast.  She affords Lisa and Mary the opportunity to hear what the launch of the podcast was like from the other side of the fence – the to-date missing aspect of their origin story – what the listenership was thinking and how the podcast was received.  Margarita shares how the podcast has impacted her life, including her takeaways from having her first article published, and the benefits she has gained from the encouragement of the hosts and guests.

Unlike many of the GWIC and certainly unlike Mary and Lisa, Margarita had the opportunity to choose whether or not to be in Compliance and she shares what it’s like for the new generation to consider joining the field – spoiler alert, Compliance Destiny appears yet again!  It’s a real thing folks!

Margarita shares some advice for helping to overcome biases when you don’t look like you fit the part.  She is of very small stature and is lucky enough to have youthful looks – causing some to make unfair judgments.  Listen in for how she overcomes the biases and consider how you can turn some of your perceived greatest weaknesses into a strength.

Following on from Mia Reini’s tips for putting together an engaging line up for the The Home Depot’s Compliance Summit, Margarita lends some tips from her experience on the planning team for the Waud Capital Partner’s Compliance Symposium to have a successful event.

The Great Women in Compliance Podcast is on the Compliance Podcast Network with a selection of other Compliance related offerings.  If you are enjoying this episode, please rate it on your preferred podcast player to help other likeminded Ethics and Compliance professionals find it.  If you have a moment to leave a review at the same time, Mary and Lisa would be so grateful.

You can also find the GWIC podcast on Corporate Compliance Insights where Lisa and Mary have a landing page with additional information about them and the story of the podcast.  Corporate Compliance Insights is a much-appreciated sponsor and supporter of GWIC, including affiliate organization CCI Press publishing the related book; “Sending the Elevator Back Down, What We’ve Learned from Great Women in Compliance” (CCI Press, 2020). If you enjoyed the book, the GWIC team would be very grateful if you would consider rating it on Goodreads and Amazon and leaving a short review.

You can subscribe to the Great Women in Compliance podcast on any podcast player by searching for it and we welcome new subscribers to our podcast.

The Uncovering Hidden Risks Podcast Returns to the Compliance Podcast Network

The risk landscape for organizations has changed significantly in the past few years. Traditional ways of identifying and mitigating risks simply do not work. They focus primarily on external threats when risks from within the organization are just as prevalent and harmful. Additionally, regulations change frequently, and it is difficult for security and compliance leaders to keep up on these changes.

The Compliance Podcast Network is therefore thrilled to have back for a limited series, the Microsoft podcast, The Uncovering Hidden Risks, which will explore the need for enterprises to quickly move to a more holistic approach to data protection and reduce their overall risk. The show will cover an array of topics, across data governance, risk management, and compliance. It will address industry trends and customer pain points.

In each episode Erica Toelle, Sr. Product Marketing Manager for Microsoft Purview, partners with a Microsoft guest host to interview a guest leader in the data governance and compliance industry. These experts have a unique and deep understanding of the challenges organizations face, and the people, processes, and technology used to address them.

We are excited to have this podcast made available to the listeners of the Compliance Podcast Network so that they may listen in to these conversations as Erica and her Microsoft colleagues discuss a range of interesting topics, ranging from trends, best practices, and real-life strategies for developing a holistic data governance and risk management program.

The Uncovering Hidden Risks podcast will launch on Wednesday, September 28th with the first episode in the series.
