Behavior Bitches

On today’s episode the Bitches bring on yet another sleep expert because let’s be real if you are not getting the quality sleep you are not showing up as your best self. Emily Varon is a BCBA who has made it her life mission to combine the science of behavior analysis with the science of sleep. Emily creates amazing learning opportunities for BCBA’s (or anyone for that matter) to enhance their practice by providing context for the way sleep and behavior both complement, and sabotage one another. Don’t worry this episode won’t leave you yawning or bored and you might just get your best night's sleep ever after listening. Tune the F in or miss the F out! Love you. Mean it!

On today’s episode the Bitches bring on a very special guest, Gil Winch, all the way from Israel! Gil founded Call Yachol (CY), a unique free market social enterprise whose entire workforce of hundreds of employees and managers is comprised entirely of ‘underdogs’. Half of CY’s employees are people with severe disabilities and the rest come from marginalized or disadvantaged populations, and for most, CY is their first place of work. Yet despite that, CY’s workforce all attain regular productivity and make industry standard wages, proving that there is a huge untapped reservoir of talent – underdogs – that many employers are overlooking. Gil has an incredibly moving and inspiring life story which he talks about candidly and with much humor. We also touch on their inspiring interview process in which they flip the script and allow the employees to interview them and strive to bring out the best in each individual during the typically daunting interview process. There are so many lessons to be learned while listening to this episode so tune in or miss the F out! Show notes:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6UiU99_tE7Ihttps://gilwinch.com/ted-talk/Pre-Order Gil's Book here:https://www.amazon.com/-/Gil-Winch/dp/1264274912/ref=sr_1_1?crid=2V47URGLG7V57&keywords=gil+winch&qid=1648710877&s=books&sprefix=gil+winc%2Cstripbooks%2C196&sr=1-1&language=en_USSupport us at patreon.com/behaviorbitchespodcastInsta: @behaviorbitchespodcastFacebook: Behavior Bitches Podcast
