Ms. Magazine: How Los Angeles Mayor Eric Garcetti is Mixing Business with Feminism

Thank you to Ms. Magazine and Carmen Rios for publishing my article: “How Los Angeles Mayor Eric Garcetti is Mixing Business with Feminism.”
[image error]
Los Angeles Mayor Eric Garcetti welcomed over 200 women into his residence that the Getty House in December for part of the Women’s Leadership Series & Engage LA event series. The Women & City Contracting event attendees had the chance to network and learn about how Los Angeles is supporting women-owned, minority owned and small businesses compete for city contracts.
Los Angeles is a city of four million people and 500,000 businesses, and with a budget of $10B, approximately $1B in funds are available for city contracts in Los Angeles—but when Mayor Garcetti took office, only one half of one percent of those contracts where going to women. Because gender equity is a core issue for his office, Garcetti’s office has been working to increase those numbers and change the game for women business-owners.
If more women can be competitive and win bids, the city benefits: There was over $7 million in savings, for example, with the recent lower bidders where small businesses won $91 million dollars of work on $220 million worth of contracts.

That’s why the Mayor’s Innovation Team—Claire Bartels, the first woman to ever be Director of Finance for the City of Los Angeles, and Shannon Hoppes, the City’s Chief Procurement Officer (CPO), a post created to maximize the value of City resources, protect taxpayer funds and ensure small and minority-owned businesses are met with opportunities and not obstacles—have been working to simplify, streamline and have the process of achieving these contracts function better. Bartels spoke to attendees about the GROW WITH event for Women in Business in 2017, which was an early step in un-complicating working relationships with the city, and the steps the government is taking in support of mentorship programs and networking.

In their own ways, each woman on the panel was a mentor to the women in the audience—offering tips, tricks and insight into how to build, grow and expand a business and take full advantage of all the city offers women business-owners.
Ingrid Merriweather, who runs her own LA-based insurance firm, instructed small business-owning attendees about how women-owned shops can become successful low bidders for city contracts.

The values of Garcetti’s administration are themselves a boon in this regard: Innovative contracting strategies on the city’s part where standards for achieving diversity and inclusion are included in RFPs, for example, shaped recent projects at LAX airport. Meeting this goal was 10 percent of the evaluation process—and the winning team raised the goal from 3 to 5 percent for local businesses, an increase of $80 million. Merriweather also recommended that everyone join organizations like NAWIC and NAWBO, which help members find like-minded people to collaborate with and secure contracting opportunities.
Andrea Keller, who taught architecture at both USC and Otis, opened up to attendees about the hurdles women continue to face in contract hiring due to their gender, and the strategies that they could take to out-maneuver sexist obstacles. Keller had nearly 50 percent female students, but 84 percent of women like them don’t go on to own their own firms. Keller decided to start an all-female architecture firm, AKA Architecture and Design, to employ her former students and help change the balance.

Trisha Murakawa, who runs Murakawa Communications, was one of 45 accepted out of 450 applications for LA’s small business academy (SBA) program, where she found five others to partner with in order to apply for a contract as a prime. She now has a contract as a sub to Tectra Tech and is helping the city as a communication expert on the sewer maintenance repair project.
It was an event that perfectly suited Bartel’s mission to help women business-owners thrive in the city—and help the city thrive, too.

“We are only a success as a city,” she reminded attendees, “when everyone succeeds.”

There are many types of certifications for your business, all of which can be assets and tools to pursue contract opportunities. Businesses can also use certifications as a way to qualify for social responsibility programs. VETERANS, WOMEN, MINORITIES, SMALL BUSINESSES, GET CERTIFIED.
Certification Program Description
The City of Los Angeles offers certification of Disadvantaged Business Enterprises (DBE), Airport Concessions Disadvantaged Business Enterprises (ACDBE), Minority Business Enterprises (MBE), Women Business Enterprises (WBE), and Small Local Business Enterprises (SLBE) . The main purpose of this certification program is to promote opportunities for disadvantaged, minority, women, and small, local business owners who want to participate in City contracting projects.
The Office of Contract Compliance (OCC), Centralized Certification Administration (CCA) is responsible for administering the City’s certification program. It certifies qualified firms for DBE, ACDBE, MBE, WBE and SLBE status for the City of Los Angeles. CCA maintains the City of Los Angeles Directory of certified DBE/ACDBE/MBE/WBE and SLBEs.
CCA is an active participant in the California Unified Certification Program (CUCP) as one of the DBE certifying agencies in the State of California. The CUCP was established in 2002 to offer a “One-Stop-Shop” for state-wide certification. CCA enters and updates certified DBEs in the statewide CUCP directory of certified DBE firms which is maintained by Caltrans and played a key role in the implementation of the CUCP Memorandum of Agreement (MOA).
DBE and ACDBE certification applications are processed following the U.S. Department of Transportation’s Code of Federal Regulations ( U.S. DOT), 49 CFR, Parts 26 and 23. Part 23 covers the regulations for Airport Concessionaires. The CUCP application form can be downloaded here Disadvantaged Business/Airport Concessions Disadvantaged Business Enterprise Application.
The City’s MBE and WBE certification applications are processed following the same guidelines for ownership and control under 49 CFR, Parts 26. On February 1, 2009 OCC implemented a streamlined MBE/WBE Certification application and process. You can apply for the City’s Minority/Women Business Enterprise (MBE/WBE) by downloading the application form to your computer.
The SLB Program was established to encourage the participation of small businesses within Los Angeles County in the City of Los Angeles’ procurement opportunities. SLB certification applications are processed following the City Ordinance Number 174048. This ordinance amends Division 10, Chapter 1, Article 4 of the Los Angeles Administrative Code. Firms certified as an SLB are given a 10% preference applied to bid contracts of $100,000 or less. You can apply for the City’s Small Local Business (SLB) by downloading the application form to your computer. Certification is valid for two calendar years from the date of approval. To maintain certification, firms must submit an SLB Biennial Affidavit of Eligibility to the Office of Contract Compliance, Centralized Certification Administration. The affidavit can be downloaded here SLB Biennial Affidavit of Eligibility.
The Local Business Preference Program, established through Ordinance No. 181910, was implemented to encourage Los Angeles County-based businesses to participate in City contracting opportunities by giving them a preference on their bids or proposals. To apply for this certification, applicants should first register their company at LABVN. Applicants must download the Local Business Certification Affidavit of Eligibility, complete and sign the form, and upload the completed form to their company profile on LABAVN.
The Business Inclusion Program, established through the Mayor’s Executive Directive No. 14, was implemented to ensure that more small businesses can participate in City contracts. The program grants certifications as Small Business Enterprise (SBE-LA), Emerging Business Enterprise (EBE), and Disabled Veteran Business Enterprise (DVBE). To be recognized for any of these certifications, the business should currently be certified by the California Department of General Services (CA-DGS) in the respective certification. To apply for these certifications, go to the CA Department of General Services certification link. After being certified by the CA-DGS, the applicant should request for recognition through their company profile on LABAVN.
The SBE (Proprietary) program was implemented July 1, 2016 to consolidate the small business certification for the City’s Propriety Departments (DWP, POLA and LAWA). The program follows the size criteria set forth by the Small Business Administration 8(a) Business Development Program or the State of California DGS Small Business Program (whichever is larger). Firms already certified by accepted agencies do not have to complete the SBE (Proprietary) Application and will be recognized as SBE’s by the propriety departments. The applicant should request for recognition through their company profile on LABAVN.
The Transitional Job Opportunities Program (TJOP), established through Ordinance No. 176959, was implemented to recognize organizations as transitional employers. These organizations provide job opportunities for the hardest-to-employ or long-term unemployed persons as a way for them to re-enter the mainstream workforce. A certified transitional employer will be granted a preference to contracts that do not exceed $100,000.00. The TJOP application form can be downloaded here, Transitional Job Opportunities Program Application.

Traveling on Ecoventura’s Theory in the Galapagos Islands

Read my article, “Traveling to my Dream Destination: The Galapagos Islands,” to see videos 1, 2 and 3 from our first days on “Bays and Beaches” Itinerary A on Ecoventura’s Theory.
Video 4: Espanola is Excellent! Galapagos Islands
[image error]
Espanola is excellent. In the morning we went to Punta Suarez and we saw marina iguanas swimming, Nazca bobbies nesting, sea lions with their infants. We saw a baby sea lion still attached to the placenta and we were told it was probably born that morning. It was a beautiful walk and we even had a group photo at the blow hole.
[image error]
For lunch on the yacht, we had a cooking demonstration of Ecuadorian ceviche and ate our lucious lunch on the stunning sun deck.
[image error]
In the afternoon, we went to Gardner Bay where we went kayaking with turtles, sea lions and pelicans. We went deep water snorkeling with sea lions, turtles, puffer fish and schools of fish.
[image error]
Later in the day, we walked on a pristine white-sand beach where we watched sea lions frolicking and the sun setting. It was a magical day in Espanola.
[image error]
Every evening we had a superb 5 course meal with a special menu of the day. I loved my turn to dine with Captain Jhon Feijoo. He is a very personable captain and everyone had a chance to dine at his table. One afternoon, he even went snorkeling with us!
[image error]
Video 5: Floreana is Fantastic! Galapagos on Ecoventura Theory Dec 11 2019
We had the most fantastic day in Floreana. We started our day with a beautiful breakfast on the sun deck. Sunrise was stunning! We went ashore at Punta Cormorant’s olive-sand beach and we saw 30 flamingos, cut leaf daisies, black and white mangroves and blue-footed boobies. I especially liked the brightly colored sally lightfoot crabs.
We took a walk across the island to a white sand beach where we saw many sting rays in the shallow water and large sized turtles. We went deep water snorkeling at Champion Islet with many sea lions and colorful schools of fish.
[image error]
After a scrumptious lunch onboard, we went to Post Office Bay which has been a site for exchanging postcards since the 18th century. This island has a colorful history and our guide, Peter Freire, was raised here and shared stories from his family. You can leave a postcard and find one to bring home and mail! We went snorkeling from the beach and a sea lion played with us in the water swimming around and around us and we saw many turtles.
[image error]
After going back on board to relax in the hot tub and then get dry clothes, we took a panga ride to Baroness point and saw many more flamingos, marine iguanas and sea lions. Some of our group went kayaking and Sam was on a paddle board. The photo of a sea lion jumping out the water next to him is fantastic! Each day we see so many amazing creatures on every one of our activities and outings. I love the Galapagos Islands.
Video 6: Santa Cruz Island is Superb Turtle Mating and Charles Darwin Institute Dec 12 2019
Santa Cruz island was superb and quite a different day from the rest so far. There are many boats in the harbor of Puerto Ayora which is a town of 24,000.
We drove to the highlands to visit El Chato Ranch, which is privately owned ecological ranch where the giant tortoises roam freely. Did you know that the males can be four times larger than the females and grow to be five hundred pounds!
[image error]
The giant tortoises were feeling very amorous and we saw several couples mating. One male seemed to be in line for a turn but the first male stuck up its neck and the second male backed away from the female.
We went in the lava tunnels, El Mirador and Los Gemelos (the twins), a pair of massive craters. I liked walking inside the dark tunnels.
[image error]
After lunch on our yacht, we went to the Charles Darwin Research Center, where we saw the taxidermied Lonesome George whose death marked the extinction of his species of tortoise from Pinta Island. We also met Diego, the tortoise who was brought over from San Diego and now has nearly 1000 descendants and brought his species back from the brink of extinction.
During our free time in town, I bought a silver necklace and earrings in the shape of turtles. We walked back to the dock and ate ice cream.
[image error]
Back on board, we had drinks on the sun deck at sunset and enjoyed another marvelous multi-course meal with our friends and fantastic guides.

Ms. Magazine: Searching for Gender Equality at the United Nations Conference

Thank you to Ms. Magazine and Carmen Rios for the honor of attending United Nations GA 74 and the United Nations Women’s Meeting in New York City, as well as for publishing my article: “25 Years After Beijing, What’s Next for Women Worldwide?”
[image error]
Twenty five years ago, in 1995, thousands of women gathered in China to attend the NGO Forum on Women and the UN’s Fourth World Conference on Women. It was a challenge for women to get visas, but over 30,000 women from 200 countries were in attendance—and the Beijing Declaration and Platform for Action, an agenda for women’s rights and empowerment, was created. At that historic convening, 68 countries made commitments to recognizing women’s rights as human rights.
Last year, UN Women Executive Director Phumzile Mlambo-Ngcuka, together with Nobel Prize Laureates Nadia Murad and Denis Mukwege, presented the report of the G7 Gender Equality Advisory Council to world leaders in Biarritz at the G7 Summit in France. UN Women also convened activist and political leaders in New York City last September for an event called “Gender Equality: from the Biarritz Partnership to the Beijing+25 Generation Equality Forum.”
[image error]
“I am honored to be with the women of the world who will provide leadership for this important and historic event,” then-UN Women Executive Director Phumzile Mlambo-Ngcuka told the crowd in New York. “Without a strong feminist movement, no country has a chance for a meaningful equality.”
There are 2.5 billion women and girls on this planet who are impacted by discriminating laws and lack any legal protection. In many countries, as much of 75 percent of the rights of women and girls are not protected in law. “We need all stakeholders to work together,” Mlambo-Ngcuka urged. “We need the whole world to agree and adopt a plan for massive change that we can implement together in our places of work, in our schools, in our government, in our homes and in our communities.”
Sweden’s Minister of Foreign Affairs, Anne Linde, explained how systemic bias puts women at risk—economically, socially and even physically. In 104 countries, there are laws preventing women from carrying out certain jobs. When it comes to a car crash, there is a 47 percent higher risk of women being severely hurt, because the car crash dummy is made with a male body. In 45 economies, there are no laws protecting women against violence in their own home.
[image error]
“When some countries say that women should dress differently, behave differently, live differently—our response is let women and girls decide for themselves,” Linde observed. “Women choose their own lives and the world will be a better place. How do we do it?”
Of course, she knows the answer to her own question: “by making sure that women get a seat at the table; by supporting women’s organization by proving that female participation in labor market increases economic growth; by fighting child marriage, female genital mutilation and the use of sexual violence as a weapon; by refusing to let anybody else decide what we do with our bodies and with our lives.”

Traveling to my Dream Destination: The Galapagos Islands

In December 2019, I traveled to one of the most magical places on our planet, the Galapagos Island. This archipelago of 22 islands is on the Equator in the eastern Pacific. Nearly 200 years ago, Charles Darwin traveled here and the area’s endemic species inspired his scientific discoveries about the Theory of Natural Selection and Evolution.
[image error]Visiting the Giant Tortoise on Santa Cruz Island from Ecoventura’s Theory
I have always wanted to see the finches which are named after Darwin, the blue footed boobies and the creatures on land and in the water. Did you know that the Galapagos Islands were the first site declared as a World Heritage Site by UNESCO (United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization) in 1978?
[image error]
How can you travel here and be close to the animals without harming them or this pristine environment? I sailed on Ecoventura’s Theory which is named after Charles Darwin’s Theory of Evolution and embarked on its maiden voyage March 3, 2019. This brand new mega-yacht has reduced fossil fuel consumption by more than 30% relative to their earlier fleet. It is carbon neutral and there are many sustainable features – each guest has their own reusable water bottles to fill at the filtered water station in the restaurant, there are ecological toilets and an advanced water treatment plan that prevents untreated greywater or blackwater from being disposed into the ocean.
[image error]
The ten spacious and well designed cabins have large, three-panel panoramic windows, comfortable king beds although you can have two twin beds and there are rooms for three as well as connecting rooms if you are traveling with family. Each cabin has a private bathroom with a rainfall shower, hairdryers, plush towels, and eco-friendly biodegradable soaps and shampoos.
[image error]
As there are two well trained naturalist guides on board, Ecoventura offers the most favorable naturalist-to-passenger ratio of ships in Galapagos with a maximum of 10 guests per guide. Theory also has the highest passenger-to-crew ratio with 14 crew-members for a maximum of 20 passengers on any sailing.
[image error]
I sailed on the 7 night itinerary “A” BEACHES & BAYS which is the South/Central route. You can combine A & B and sail for two weeks to include the North/West as well. Each day we had morning and afternoon activities including snorkeling, hiking and kayaking, although on some days we had three or four amazing adventures on the islands with sea lions, penguins and tortoises.
Sailing on Theory is truly a luxury experience and it is part of the Relais & Châteaux collection that includes over 550 of the finest luxury hotels and gourmet restaurants in more than 60 countries.
[image error]
What will you find one Theory? We loved Christina, our full-time concierge, who made sure everything happened perfectly. There is a fitness center but after all of the hiking, snorkeling and kayaking, I only went in there to take a photo of it! Everyone on my trip loved the sundeck with loungers and daybeds for two where we enjoyed afternoon drinks, some of our meals and, of course, the Jacuzzi. Chef Estuardo prepared superb meals including fresh fish, Ecuadorian cuisine and also offered vegetarian and gluten-free meals. They were amenable to managing everyone’s food preferences and sensitivities.
I will share my photos and videos with you in this and the next few posts! I hope you get to experience the magic of the Galapagos Islands on-board the beautiful Theory!
1 Explore the Galapagos on THEORY with Ecoventura and Lisa Niver Dec 2019
Is it your bucket list dream to see the blue footed and the red footed boobies in the Galapagos islands? I am here on Ecoventura’s Theory to see all of the amazing animals in the Galapagos Islands! I cannot wait to show you everything we are going to see!
[image error]
Watch all of my videos to see kayaking with flamingos, snorkeling with penguins, sharks and sea lions as well as sting rays and sea turtles, mating giant tortoises, sunsets, hiking among land and marine iguanas and 5-course exceptional meals with new friends. You can relax in luxury on this eco-friendly Relais and Chateaux Mega-Yacht. Captain John and his crew took care of all the 16 passengers on board and he even made time to go snorkeling with us one day!
2 Welcome Aboard Ecoventura’s Theory, San Cristobal, Galapagos Dec 8 2019
This week I will be traveling aboard Ecoventura’s Theory in the Galapagos Islands. I flew from Los Angeles to Miami to Guayquil to San Cristobal where I was met by our amazing naturalist guides, Peter Freire and Billy Maquilon. Our yacht family of sixteen total guests (the mega-yacht can hold 20 in the 10 cabins) was transferred from the airport on a short bus ride and zodiac to our home, Theory.
After a buffet lunch, we had a safety drill and went on our first excursion to the highlands. We walked up to see El Junco Lake which is the only sizable fresh water lake in the Galapagos. El Junco is the caldera of an extinct volcano.
[image error]
At the pier, we saw sea lions, sally lightfoot crabs and marine iguanas. We traveled on the pangas (zodiac tender boats) back to Theory. We had cocktails, our daily evening briefing about the plan for the following day and dinner with our new friends. Each day breakfast and lunch is a buffet, but dinner is a multi-course extravaganza with wine.
I am so excited to be in the Galapagos Islands exploring with Ecoventura.
3 Join me in the Galapagos on Ecoventura at Cerro Brujo and Punta Pitt, San Cristobal Island Dec 9 2019
For our first full day, we discovered like Darwin on San Cristobal Island at Cerro Brujo and Punta Pitt.
After breakfast we tried on our snorkel gear and wetsuits. We took a panga or zodiac ride to Cerro Brujo or Wizard Hill and wandered among many sea lions nursing their pups. We also saw Sally lightfoot crabs which are black as juveniles and bright orange as adults. There were marine iguanas on the black rocks. The blue footed boobies were dive-bombing into the water for fish. We tried out our wetsuits from the ship and snorkeled from the beach. We saw sea lions swimming, sting rays and many colorful fish. I loved our boat ride through the arch and to see the Cathedral, which is also called Darwin’s Pants.
[image error]
After lunch onboard, I went to visit Captain Jhon on the bridge. Theory has an open bridge policy and you are welcome to stop by to say hello and learn more about the yacht.
Our afternoon hike was at Punta Pitt, one of the only places where you can see red footed and blue footed boobies. We watched juvenile blue footed boobies on the ground and red footed boobies up in a tree. We also saw sea lions frolicking on the beach!
[image error]
We watched sunset and it was like a painting of red, yellow and gold on the sky! Our multi-course dinner was filled with fantastic food and conversation about our incredible day!

Ms. Magazine: Strength in Stories: The Transformative Power of Talking About Breast Cancer

Thank you to Ms. Magazine for publishing my article: “Strength in Stories: The Transformative Power of Talking About Breast Cancer.”
[image error]
For the last quarter of a century, Living Beyond Breast Cancer (LBBC), a national non-profit based in Philadelphia, has changed the narrative for women with breast cancer. The mission of the organization and its CEO, Jean Sachs, is that no woman feel alone or uninformed in her journey through diagnosis and treatment. The many channels of support have changed the story of over 600,000 people in LBBC’s community last year.

The annual Butterfly Ball is one of LBBC’s largest annual events, which raises much-needed funds to support their work providing those impacted by breast cancer with trusted information and a community of support. At this year’s event, the Donna Noce Colaco Going Beyond Award was presented to Jamil Rivers, Susan S. Swanson and Molly Weingart, all of whom shared their personal experience with breast cancer to help and inspire others. The crowd of over 500 left the room in awe of their strength.
Swanson talked frankly about her choice to participate in a phase one clinical trial. Knowing to ask about and consider participating in research can dramatically change the course of treatment for every person and patient who seeks care after them. New, better and more targeted solutions require ongoing trials and willing patients in order to discover how to end this battle against breast cancer—but only seven percent of research funding focuses on metastatic breast cancer, “the kind that kills you,” Swanson noted.
[image error]
Weingart, who was diagnosed with breast cancer at age 34, shared that she “created art where before there had only been destruction,” and chose to have stunning flower tattoos cover her mastectomy surgery scars.
Rivers faced her own diagnosis after her husband survived cancer twice, and while caring for her three young sons. During chemotherapy, she kept working and was even promoted. She now advocates for others at a local and national political level to change the conversation about finding appropriate care.
The Founders Award, LBBC’s highest honor, was presented to Gerianne DiPiano for her visionary leadership as a pharmaceutical executive turned entrepreneur, and her incredible support of LBBC and the community. Her company, FemmePharma, changes the equation about research with a focus on women and has developed effective products to manage menopausal symptoms that improves quality of life.
The founder talked about how we need to pay it forward for women by women.
I recently lost my mentor to metastatic breast cancer, and I wish there had been more treatment choices for her. But until there is a cure for everyone, I take solace in knowing that LBBC will be offering love, support and information at critical times to the people who need it most.
