Ericka Nicole Malone continues to blaze a trail for women of color in the male-dominated entertainment industry with her combination of skills as an actress, writer, director and producer. Malone is well known for building complex, relatable characters, whether she is writing a play for the stage or a script for a television series. “As a writer, you don’t just want to tell a story; you don’t just want to tell an African American story; you want to tell a human story,” Malone said during a recent interview. Her upcoming productions are a testament to her kaleidoscope of talent for telling human stories and connecting with audiences on multiple levels: - Della is a one-hour television drama featuring a Black vigilante in urban Kentucky who protects women from abusive partners — often resorting to violence when she rises to their defense. - Dreams from the Edge is a short film about a young girl auditioning in Hollywood. Her mother is a former actress and only has negative things to say about the industry. Ulti

Win-win scenarios abound in the natural world — examples of elegant multispecies interactions that have resulted from millennia of evolutionary patterns and behaviors, explains anthropologist and ecologist Philip A. Loring. Somewhere along the way, however, perhaps in our efforts to conserve and protect the resources found in nature, we humans have completely removed ourselves from it, relegating our species to spectator status on the outside of this harmonious connectivity looking in. It is time for a new approach to sustainability and stewardship. “It is indeed possible to coexist with the rest of the natural world, to restore the damage we’ve caused. We do this not through self-quarantine, by leaving nature alone. We achieve this by integrating our lives and destinies with those of the species, landscapes and seascapes around us,” Loring writes in his thought-provoking new book, Finding Our Niche: Toward a Restorative Human Ecology, a Silver Medal winner in the 2020 Nautilus Book Awards.

Simply being able to pay your bills each month is not enough. Unexpected job loss. Medical emergency. Natural disaster. In an instant, an unforeseen event can put you on shaky financial footing if you’re not prepared. And retirement? Forget about it. The good news is, it’s not too late, and it doesn’t matter where you start. It just matters that you follow a proven plan for building wealth and that you begin now, says author and financial planner Edward R. Williams. “I grew up thinking that the number one priority with money is finding a way to get the bills paid,” he says. “There were never any conversations about saving and investing. I fell into many of the same traps as an adult. It felt like every time I saved a little bit of money, something would happen that would require that money I had saved.” Williams hit rock bottom when his diabetic father needed surgery and asked the younger Williams to help cover some of the expenses. But he wasn’t able to. Feeling powerless and ashamed, Williams endeavored to

Could a key element of business success be as simple as having fun at work? The answer is a resounding “yes,” reveals international business consultant J. Allen. “The decision to understand markets, customers, competitors and our own organizations in different ways, followed by the will to change them for the benefit of all, is the entryway to a new level of engagement, excitement and — yes — fun at work!” Allen says. “It’s the battle, the competition, that is so exhilarating and so attractive.” In his new book, Bucket Heads: Transform Something … Opportunity Is Everywhere!, Allen challenges business leaders, aspiring leaders, team members and anyone intent on making a difference in their organizations to see things they may not be conscious of and things they may have forgotten — to think differently, act differently, do differently, and have more impact.
