In this episode of Career Can Do, Mary Ann Faremouth chats with William Bernhardt, a best-selling author of over fifty books which have sold millions of copies worldwide. He is the founder of the Red Sneakers Writers Center, an organization dedicated to mentoring aspiring writers and providing them with resources to help build their careers. He discusses a myriad of topics, including striking a work-life balance, determination, and writing.
William knew from a young age that he wanted to be a writer. Despite the obstacles in his way, he persevered, and eventually his determination paid off. He ended up going to law school, which was originally just a way to pay the bills, but his industry knowledge enhanced his courtroom thrillers. After writing over 20 books, William decided to use his platform to make the path to success a little easier for the next generation of writers. He founded the Red Sneakers Writers Center for that purpose, which bloomed so much that he now hosts a writer’s conference annually.
Writing is a critical skill now more than ever, Mary Ann comments, especially when it comes to sending out resumes. Things like proper spelling, sentence structure and formatting are incredibly important for communicating your skills and raising your prospects of being hired and staying hired. Many firms are realizing that the best and brightest college graduates they employ can’t write because they weren’t taught to, William shares.

OFAC Tech Company Sanctions
The Kitchen looks at new levied OFAC sanctions against Russian tech companies.
Andi McNeal is Vice President of Research with the Association of Certified Fraud Examiners, a membership association serving more than 90,000 anti-fraud professionals globally. As a CFE, she specializes in fraud prevention, detection and investigation, education and training, research and analysis, corporate culture and leadership, and association management. Andi discusses the ACFE’s 2022 Report to the Nations and its insights on occupational fraud. Download the report here!
The ACFE’s study focuses on occupational fraud, Andi shares. They were not attempting to get a snapshot of every type of fraud that occurs – only cases perpetrated by employees against the organizations they worked for, specifically between 2020 and 2021. In the 2100 cases they observed, over $3.6 billion was calculated in losses, which is just a small portion of the fraud committed globally. Fraud isn’t an accounting problem, it’s a human problem.

Did you know there are significant health benefits to laughing a few minutes each day?
With all of the scary things going on in our worlds, we often forget to laugh with all of the stress from work. You don’t forget to breathe, and laughing is just as important. Sometimes I have to remind myself that “all work and no play makes Jason a very boring boy,” and YES, sometimes I talk to myself in the third person.
I felt a little of that recently, so I reached out to my friend Sarah Routman to record a #jammingwithjason #podcast episode. We were laughing the whole time we were recording, and you will be laughing the entire time you listen.
A champion of overall wellness, Sarah Routman inspires and motivates individuals and professionals to engage in healthy laughter for a vibrant, uplifting, and transformative shift in all aspects of their lives that leads them towards better health and wellbeing.
She believes life is 10% what happens to us and 90% how we respond. Laughter can help keep everything in perspective, and the more we practice it, the better we get at seeing things in a fresh and light-hearted way.
