40 LESSONS BY TODD WALDO
40 Lessons is a podcast about the lessons we’ve learned about family, career, community and the lessons we are still learning. Host Todd B. Waldo and his guests share their stories, insight, and wisdom to encourage listeners to take care of themselves and each other.
As Todd B. Waldo and the TEDxRVA team take a break from producing events, this episode shares his appreciation for the team and their work over the last five years. And looks back at their salon on June 21 at the Virginia Treatment Center for Children on adverse childhood experiences in our community. The event featured the talk from TEDxRVA 2016 by Dr. Allison Jackson, A Call to Connection: Making Childhood Trauma Personal ( youtu.be/-HG8H4n2j9I ). In this episode, Todd talks about sharing the story of the trauma in his life and what can happen when we open up. The path to change in our lives is through connection and relationship. The cost is too high when we are disconnected and don’t share our stories. The hope in this episode is that we will share and listen to help us all live well along the journey of our lives.
During last month’s Creative Mornings in Richmond, Todd B. Waldo shared his best yes commitments and challenged everyone to stay committed to what matters most. This episode is about one more yes – to a parenting partnership for his daughter. And Todd’s reflections on being a Dad during this season of his life.

Power coupled with racism against people of color have life-threatening and life alternating consequences. What do we learn about ourselves and our community when confronted with the inequality and injustice is revealed? The hope shared in this episode of 40 Lessons is that we will be honest enough to recognize our racist thoughts we have accepted as truth and decide to learn something new. And that our community will not be silent as we hold people in power accountable.
