“When my mom cooks and shares these dishes with me, she passes on the traditions and cultural heritage she left behind in Poland. They live on in a new way with our family in America. These recipes serve to preserve our cultural identity. Now, when I make the Ambrozek’s Żurek, I play a critical role in sharing my family’s traditions and passing along our history to the next generation.”

Like most first-generation Americans, I grew up attending many large multi-generational family occasions. These Polish parties and celebrations provided a much-needed release from the stress and challenges of

“While the major cities like New York, Los Angeles, and even my beloved Chicago are experiencing a population exodus, OKC is growing. According to census data, from 2010-2020 OKC’s population increased 17.4%, and is now the 20th largest city in America.”

After graduating from the University of Oklahoma in 2002, I quickly made plans to get out of Oklahoma. Even though Oklahoma City had been home for most of my life, I dreamed big city dreams. I spent two years in Dallas working in advertising, followed by three years in Lawrence, Kansas earning my law degree from

Research now suggests that there is measurable financial reward for companies heeding the rising demand for the business world to account for the environmental, social, and governance (ESG) impact of its operations. Those that choose to embrace this opportunity will want to immediately set up and implement sustainable practices. However, before they can do so, they first need to settle on what ESG goals they should be striving to achieve.While many are working towards a common goal of promoting a more sustainable world and business environment, not every company’s ESG policies should be identical. Rather, they should

Recently we sat down with The Elevate Foundation’s Founder and Chairman, Joseph Deitch, and CEO Carolina Jayaram, to discuss the brief but impactful history of the organization, what makes it tick, and how they plan to conquer the world’s challenges by investing in the visionaries who make the good ‘go round’, whether they’re famous—or just not yet.

JLThank you both for speaking with us about the critical support you are providing across sectors and across the globe. There’s lots to discuss, so let’s start at the beginning. You two, as Founder and CEO, share an incredible responsibility together, directing resources

When I was small, my siblings and I lived with my grandparents. We had a small album player with only three “child approved” albums. Shortly before we moved to Illinois, my dad took my two sisters and I to a store and told us we could each pick out a CD. CDs were expensive and I can’t remember having any others in the house, so we knew that whatever we picked would likely be the only music we would get to listen to. My sisters picked out TLC’s CrazySexyCool and Salt-N-Pepa’s Very Necessary. I, myself, went over to the Hip

My favorite holiday tradition is my family’s Christmas Eve Wigilia. It’s a traditional Polish vigil meal. We always start by breaking opłatek (polish wafer), and spending a few minutes with each person individually, wishing them blessings for the new year. Wesołych Świąt!

I realize I’m about to commit founder heresy here, but I come from the theatre originally, so I just don’t like mornings., I said it! Instead of trying to do the 5/6am yoga/matcha/meditation thing just because it’s what CEOs are supposed to do, I’ve worked to structure my days at All Together Now around what makes me feel best.

The Tuesday morning train that I take into the office shows absolutely no signs that we spent the past two years, and are still experiencing, a global pandemic. It is absolutely packed to the brim with individuals on the way to their jobs in Manhattan; so much so, that all seats are full, and some must stand in the aisle for the 40-minute commute, elbow to elbow, and hanging on to the handrails above head.
Thankfully, I am able to find some calm in my morning by putting in my Airpods and listening to a 10-minute

Twenty twenty-two has proven to be a highly economically volatile year, and the NFT market has been no exception. In fact, the NFT market has seen a dramatic downturn from its previous high-water mark. Art collectors, however, should not shy away from dealing in digital artforms simply because the market is prone to fluctuation. The modern art market has always been a home to adventurous taste makers and risk takers, alike.
Sure, there are plenty of NFTs creators and investors who entered the market for reasons beyond a desire to make and curate exceptional art.
