Guests: Dr. Ric Grummer, Professor Emeritus, University of Wisconsin-Madison; Dr. Jesse Goff, Iowa State University; Dr. Heather White, University of Wisconsin-MadisonTonight is our second installment of what we call our legacy series. The legacy series honor those individuals that have a profound impact on our industry. For this conversation, we're going to zero in on the history of transition cow management. We are joined by Dr. Ric Grummer and Dr. Heather White from University of Wisconsin-Madison and Dr. Jesse Goff of Iowa State University.Dr. Ric Grummer discusses the transition cow and the feeding process of pre and postpartum cows from an energy deficit standpoint as well as the lactation dry periods. 8:00Moving into today's research at the University of Wisconsin-Madison, Dr. Heather White discusses her work on liver cells. She discusses the different studies on cells done by manipulating treatments and then using that data to determine what to do in a cow study without using thousands of cows in the process. 23:47The discussion continues with Dr. Jesse Goff sharing about his studies involving milk fever. These studies branched off of a Norwegian scientist's studies on AIV silage and making haylage by pouring hydrochloric acid and sulfuric acid onto the forages. 31:45Then Dr. Heather White discusses NEFA and the profile of fatty acids. She discussed manipulating the fatty acids in the blood and the impacts of those fatty acids. 43:00As a veteran of the field, Dr. Jesse Goff discusses where he sees the future of immunology. He discussed his studies on the effects of calcium as well as manipulation of the immune system. He also discussed the options to help treat animals coming out of the COVID pandemic by manipulating messenger RNA to boost various immunological parameters to boost the immune system at the right time.  47:42A fruitful area of research around protein imbalance was discussed by Dr. Ric Grummer and how it effects the postpartum cow. 55:00 Dr. Jesse Goff and Dr. Ric Grummer discuss more on the transition cow and how there is still a lot of research to be done on storage of protein during lactation and transition cycles. 58:40As promised, “The Grummertini” also known as a Tangueray Martini Up & Dirty with Ric's variationsTangueray GinUp (no ice cubes)Dirt on the side (side of olive juice)Shaken & PouredIf you want one of our new Real Science Exchange t-shirts, make sure to screenshot your rating, review or subscription, and email a picture to anh.marketing@balchem.com. Include your size and mailing address and we'll get a shirt in the mail to you.Please subscribe and share with your industry friends to bring more friends to join us around the Real Science Exchange virtual pub table.This podcast is sponsored by Balchem Animal Nutrition and Health.

I started using the AntiSamy project back in ColdFusion 10, and hadn't realized that it was now a native part of the ColdFusion runtime. This inspired me to go back and re-read my old post wherein I remembered that Matthew Clemente mentioned yet another OWASP project of relevance called the Java HTML Sanitizer. To keep things exciting, I decided to play around a bit with this Java HTML Sanitizer project in Lucee CFML 5.3.7.48.https://www.bennadel.com/blog/4071-using-the-owasp-java-html-sanitizer-in-lucee-cfml-5-3-7-48-to-sanitize-html-input-and-prevent-xss-attacks.htmBlog - Adam Cameron -  CFML: tag-based versions of some script-based codeAs I mentioned yesterday ("CFML: tag-based versions of some script-based code") I've been asked by a couple of people to show the tag-based version of the script-based CFML code. This has ben particularly in reference to my typical approach of using higher-order functions to perform data transformation operations on iterable objects (eg: arrays, structs, lists, etc). Here I will briefly do that for some examples of using mapping functions. The process is the same each time, so I'll not dwell on it too much.https://blog.adamcameron.me/2021/06/cfml-tag-based-versions-of-some-script.htmlhttps://blog.adamcameron.me/2021/06/cfml-higher-order-functions-compared-to.htmlCFML JobsSeveral positions available on https://www.getcfmljobs.com/Listing over 143 ColdFusion positions from 65 companies across 99 locations in 5 Countries.3 new jobs listed this weekFull-Time     ColdFusion Developer at Wichita, KS     United States     Full-Time     ColdFusion Application Developer at Mumbai, Maharashtra     India     Full-Time     ColdFusion Application Developer at Pune, Maharashtra     IndiaOrtus Jobs https://www.ortussolutions.com/about-us/careersSenior ColdFusion CFML Developer (USA TEAM)Desarollador Web (EL SALVADOR TEAM)ForgeBox Module of the WeekcbauthThe latest update adds an `onInvalidCredentials` interception point as well as passing along the provided username and password to all the authentication-related interception points.https://forgebox.io/view/cbauthVS Code Hint Tips and Tricks of the WeekGitHub Copilot by GitHub (preview)GitHub Copilot is an AI pair programmer that helps you write code faster and with less work.

That's not my actual payouts. It's just, like, the gross revenue.  Colleen Schnettler  01:34Okay.  Michele Hansen  01:34And then, so the expenses. So, first one, for the formatting, I have to use the software called Vellum, which is $250. I had to buy ISBNs, like, the little, like, numbers on the back of the book that identify it.  Colleen Schnettler  01:49Yeah. Michele Hansen  01:50So, and I had to, you can either buy one, or like 10, and since I'm going to do an audio book, you need an ISBN for that, and like, a hardcover needs zone ISBN. And so anyway, that was $295. A barcode is $25. Proofreading $800, which is a lot of money, but I feel like that's the price of like, not being embarrassed that it's full of typos and you know, I feel like if I want to, like, have a book that, like, a manager could buy for their team, or like, people would recommend to their clients, like, it has to be professional.  And so having, like, professional proofreading is the cost of that. Colleen Schnettler  02:24Yeah.  I didn't know that was something. I didn't know that was a thing. Michele Hansen  02:30Yeah. Yeah, I spent, I think last week I mentioned how I was fighting with Grammarly a lot, and,  Colleen Schnettler  02:35Yeah.  Michele Hansen  02:36I just, I was like, I have spent like, two days fighting with Grammarly, just trying to get it to work, and like, and I was like, this is just, my time is more expensive than this. Colleen Schnettler  02:47Yeah. Michele Hansen  02:47So, I'm just gonna hire a proofreader.  Colleen Schnettler  02:50Good choice. Michele Hansen  02:50And then, of course, you know, don't include hundreds of hours of my time over the last couple of months. But, so, the total for expenses so far is $1370. Colleen Schnettler  03:01That's wonderful. Michele Hansen  03:02So, when you deduct $1363 minus $1370.  Colleen Schnettler  03:11Oh. Michele Hansen  03:12You get negative seven. Colleen Schnettler  03:16Yeah, I see. I misunderstood what you were saying. Got it. So you're in the hole seven bucks and hundreds of hours of your time. Michele Hansen  03:25Yes. Yeah.  Colleen Schnettler  03:26Alright. Well, good thing it;s a labor of love. Michele Hansen  03:28So, I looked at that number, though, and I just had this moment where I was like, holy, forking shirtballs, like, I need to market this thing.  Colleen Schnettler  03:39Yeah.  Michele Hansen  03:40Umm, and actually, so like, I sold another two since then. So now, I am actually at positive $51.  Colleen Schnettler  03:51Whoo.  Michele Hansen  03:52Yeah, whoo. Umm, and of course, you know, we're only like, only in presale, and like, a ton of people have today said they want the hardcover or they want the audio book. So they haven't, they haven't purchased it yet, or they just simply want the finished version. Umm, But yeah, that was kind of a wake up call for me that, like, I've been, you know, we talked about with Sean like, I, like marketing a info product feels very different for me than marketing a SaaS.  Colleen Schnettler  04:19Yes. Michele Hansen  04:19And also requires a lot more self-promotion, which I'm not comfortable with. Like, it makes me like, deeply uncomfortable to like, reach out to people and be like, hey, like, would you consider, like, you know, reviewing my book like, or, you know, can I be on your podcast and, like, talk, like, it makes me super uncomfortable. Umm so, so but I got to do it because like, negative $7, man, for like, four months worth of work is, you know, basically half of my time the last four months, certainly, last two months, has been on this book. And so I feel like I owe it to myself just for that, like, time to like, sell the gosh darn thing. Colleen Schnettler  05:07Definitely. Michele Hansen  05:09Yeah. So I like spent, you know, this week I was kind of working on, you know, like, I went through all of the newsletter issues and I, like, put in a link at the top to, like, buy the book because I've noticed that people are sharing the scripts around. Like, I can see the analytics that they're getting shared in people's Slack channels, or, you know, Trello, or Asana, which is a good sign that those maybe have some staying power. So, and just kind of thinking through a little bit more, a little bit more of the marketing and trying to arrange, you know, yeah, podcasts and stuff, but I gotta, I gotta market this thing. Colleen Schnettler  05:52Yeah, didn't Alex, who promoted his book on our podcast, didn't he do, like, 20 or 30 podcasts? Michele Hansen  06:00Yeah. Colleen Schnettler  06:01And how many have you done? Michele Hansen  06:04Um, I, well,  Colleen Schnettler  06:07I already know the answer. Michele Hansen  06:09Well, I mean this one. I mean, I was on a couple recently where I talked about the newsletter. Like, I was on, I, yeah. Like, I was on the Get the Audience podcast, and I was on the Learn Neto podcast as well. But like, the book wasn't out yet. So those weren't really, Colleen Schnettler  06:37Right, you didn't have anything to sell at that time.  Michele Hansen  06:39Yeah, it was just the newsletter. Yeah. Colleen Schnettler  06:40A good goal for you would be to try to book 15, you know, and get yourself as a guest on 15 to 20 podcasts to promote your book, because you can sell it now. Right? Even though it's not completely done. Michele Hansen  06:52Yeah. Yeah, I guess I guess. Yeah. I'm like scheduling one for the middle of July, like, so I'm currently, my goal is to publish it on July 2, but I like, I really hope that happens. But there may be like, you know, some people may need more time to, like, write reviews, and, like, making a cover and everything. So, it should be out by early July. Colleen Schnettler  07:20You're, when you say, I don't know. You mean the book?  Michele Hansen  07:22Yeah.  Colleen Schnettler  07:22I am little confused about what you're saying. Michele Hansen  07:23 Yeah. So like, upload it to Amazon, and people can buy a physical copy. Colleen Schnettler  07:28Yes. Michele Hansen  07:29So I don't think I'm quite there yet. Like, exactly like, and I think there's some things that I'm just saying aren't going to happen for, like, this first version, like, a friend of mine, who is a UX research expert was reading it, and there's a couple places she's like, this would be a really great table. This would be great as a graphic. And I'm like, yes, it would be but I have zero faculty for visual communication, and that is not going to happen right now. Like, that can like happen when my brain has the space to like, think that through, but it is, it is not happening right now. But yeah, I guess I guess I should say, I guess that, I don't even know where to start. Colleen Schnettler  08:13No no, Let's go like straight Nike style here.  Michele Hansen  08:15Nike style? Colleen Schnettler  08:16What is it, just do it? Just do it. That's my challenge for you. I'm not going to talk to you for a couple weeks because I'm about to embark on my epic road trip. So, my challenge for you is to reach out to, find and reach out to 25 podcast hosts that you think, Michele Hansen  08:34Good Lord. Colleen Schnettler  08:34And they're not all going to say yes, which is like, hey, man. I know. Michele Hansen  08:37I'm sitting here being like, Colleen, and I really struggle with self promotion. And even, you know, one person was hard for me and you're like, go do it 25 more times.  Colleen Schnettler  08:4525 times. I love that idea. Michele Hansen  08:46Coach Colleen says 25 more reps. So not fair. Colleen Schnettler  08:50Yes. So, that's what my challenge for you is, is to reach out, Michele Hansen  08:54 How about five?  Colleen Schnettler  08:57Really? I'm not impressed with your five. Michele Hansen  09:00I feel like everybody, I feel like everybody like, needs this person standing on their shoulder that's like, I will write one landing page this month. And you're just there. They're like, really?  Colleen Schnettler  09:11Really? That's the best you can do? Michele Hansen  09:13That's, like, that's it, you know? Wait, like, why are you here?  Colleen Schnettler  09:18You should try and, I don't know, just ask, ask one of our prominent friends who is a book author, Alex comes to mind again, how many podcasts he went on?  Michele Hansen  09:27Yeah. Colleen Schnettler  09:28And try to hit that number. I mean, it's game time girl. Like, you wrote the book. You did the hard work,nd now it's a whole new set of hard work that you have to do because you're right, like, this is a brilliant book. You don't want it to languish because, no one's ever heard of it. Michele Hansen  09:43I didn't say it was brilliant. You said it was brilliant. Colleen Schnettler  09:46Well, here you go. It's brilliant. it's needed. It's gonna be amazing. So, I think you need to like, get in gear. Michele Hansen  09:54Yeah, I, yeah. Okay. I guess, I have to go, well, if you are listening and you want to promote me, then help me. Colleen Schnettler  10:06Maybe what we can do is we can, I have an idea. Okay, plan. So, just put a tweet out and ask everyone for their favorite business podcast. I bet you'll get a list of at least 30. And then you can just, Michele Hansen  10:17Yeah, I guess, yeah, like, but like it has to be for SaaS, for example, because like, Planet Money isn't gonna have me on. Colleen Schnettler  10:25Right, right. I meant yeah, SaaS podcast. I mean, there's enough of them that do podcasts similar to ours.  Michele Hansen  10:31Make the internet do my research for me.  Colleen Schnettler  10:34Yes, there we go. Harness the power of the internet. Michele Hansen  10:41So if you see a tweet from the Software Social Account soon about your favorite business SaaS podcast, now you know why.  Colleen Schnettler  10:50The secret's out. Michele Hansen  10:52Yeah, the secret is out. Okay. Well, I will, I will try to book myself on some, some podcasts. I guess, I guess there's other ways I could promote it, too. Like, I could go on, like, Tiktok or, Colleen Schnettler  11:12No.  Michele Hansen  11:14No, we will not do that. For those listening at home, I think Colleen just spit out her coffee. Yeah. Okay. Well, I have some marketing to do. Colleen Schnettler  11:34Yes. Michele Hansen  11:36Yeah. I think I have like, I've literally sent I think one email, maybe two. No, yeah, one email that mentioned that the presale was live, which basically goes against every best practice, like, some like, someone sent me some advice the other day, and they're like, send at least three emails a day on your like, launch days. I was like, okay, I've sent like, one in the last two weeks, and I sent out my newsletter the other day, and I actually forgot to include a link to the presale. So, I need to, like, Colleen Schnettler  12:06You know what, suggestion.  Michele Hansen  12:07Yeah.  Colleen Schnettler  12:07This is really cool. So do you know the Wes Bos is?  He's, like, a famous JavaScript instructor. I bought like, all of his courses. But what he does is, he does, when he has a new product to launch, he does send a lot of emails, but he actually segments his emails. And to be fair, his list is probably like 30,000 people. But he segments his email, so you can unsubscribe just from the product launch emails, which I love, because I'm like, oh, I don't care about this product launch, or I already bought that, and then I can still continue to get all the normal newsletter emails. I mean, don't stress yourself out.  Michele Hansen  12:10Yeah. Yeah. Colleen Schnettler  12:14But it's an idea. It's an idea. Michele Hansen  12:20Yeah, I'm only using review at this point for, so, I don't, like, I don't even have like, ConvertKit or anything.  Colleen Schnettler  12:50Okay, set up. Michele Hansen  12:51Set up, so I, I don't, I probably should do that, but I haven't really,  Colleen Schnettler  13:00Okay, so I think podcast.  I'm still in editing, like, get it out the door mode, because there's still other like, launch stuff. Like, I have to like register the ISBN and like, I need to go through the whole process with Amazon of like, making sure all that's like, setup.  Michele Hansen  13:19So, that feels like a July task. Colleen Schnettler  13:24July task. That's fine. It's halfway to July. It's almost July. So, Michele Hansen  13:30Yeah, so I, maybe I should, like, make a spreadsheet of all the different things and, like, have a goal for those. Colleen Schnettler  13:39I'm, I'm a big fan of measurable goals, right? Like, so, so I'm team, you know, write it down, keep a spreadsheet, keep track of it. Not that I've executed so well on my goals, right? It's easy for me to sit here and tell you what to do. It's way harder when it's you telling me what to do. So, you know,  Michele Hansen  13:57Well isn't there, there's some business axiom about like, it's not like, like, like, achieving the exact goal is not important. It's the fact that you create one and then work towards it that matters. Like, there's somebody who has said something to that effect much more articulately than just said, but you know, it's like just you set the goal and then you go off on a journey to get there and you may end up somewhere else, but like, you have, you're at least doing something. Colleen Schnettler  14:23Right? You're making forward progress. Michele Hansen  14:25Yeah, and I should probably have a revenue goal, too. Like,  Colleen Schnettler  14:29So, okay. Michele Hansen  14:29Even though I don't want one, I should, I guess. Colleen Schnettler  14:32Okay, I'm gonna get off topic, and I don't want to get too far off topic. But, so I'm a really big fan of, like, famous sports coaches, like,  Michele Hansen  14:42Okay. Colleen Schnettler  14:43Like, this is, like, a thing. Like, I love reading biographies of like John Wooden and all these other really successful sports coaches. And one of my favorite takeaways from all of this information that I've osmosed is you cannot control the outcome, right? You can only control your effort and your attitude, which is why revenue goals are not very actionable. Because a revenue goal, like, you actually can't control that. What you can control is your attitude, right? How you approach the problem, and your effort, and how hard you work, and by aligning all of these steps in terms of effort and attitude, the revenue will come. But to set a goal, like, like, in the, you know, the basketball metaphors, like when the NCAA championships, you can't actually control that. You can just control how prepared you are, and your mindset when you attack the problem. Michele Hansen  15:40Oh, that makes sense. Colleen Schnettler  15:43I know that's, like, totally off topic, but I just read about it. And I'm like, Michele Hansen  15:48Yeah, so it's, so to what you were saying, like your goal of 25 podcast episodes. And, and rather than having a goal of say, you know, I don't know, like, $5,000, for example. Instead having it be like, be on 25 podcasts over the next six months to a year, about it, not including this one, because if we include all the episodes of this show then I'm like, totally hitting that, but I assume we're not. Um, and, you know, so like, being on a specific number of podcasts, or something else. I don't know, guest talks or something. Um, yeah, like picking like, specific actions that I can do that's like your equivalent. Like, it's like, write a landing page, right? Like, like, all these, like, things that are actions that I know are accretive towards,  Colleen Schnettler  16:51Right. That's the idea. Michele Hansen  16:52Good outcomes, but like, I fundamentally don't have that much control over how much I actually sell. Like, I can keep my ears out for things that might sell like, you know, for example, I'm gonna sell templates, too, for $19 that are like, Notion templates of all the scripts and it occurred to me earlier, like the, the How to Talk So People Will Talk section like, people seem to really love that. And I was like, that could maybe be its own, like, mini book for like, $10. It's like, just like, so you want, like, you know, you, you want to get information out of people, and you want them to think you're like, trustworthy and you want to, you know, learn how to, like listen actively, then, a mini book or something, like there's other stuff I could do. Colleen Schnettler  17:36Right, I guess all of my points, all of that that you just described, that's effort, right? Those are things you do. You ultimately can't control your revenue, but it'll get there if you put the effort in. That's the idea. Michele Hansen  17:46But like, I if I set the goal of like, be the, I don't know, New York Times number one bestseller or whatever, like, I have zero control over that. It's also not realistic. And it's not it, in some ways it's like, de-motivating there have a goal that is not clearly achievable.  Colleen Schnettler  18:07Exactly. Michele Hansen  18:07But being on 25 podcast is not like, like, that's like, those are very nebulous goals, because it's unclear what will lead to that.  Colleen Schnettler  18:17Yeah. Exactly. Michele Hansen  18:17But being on 20 Live podcast in six months is concrete. And I ostensibly have control over that. Colleen Schnettler  18:26Yes. Nice. Michele Hansen  18:28Wow. So, it sounds like you are doing like a lot of like, business reading lately. Colleen Schnettler  18:38Yeah, um, not a ton. So I do have a couple audio books queued up for my drive that I'm excited about, business ebooks, Obviously Awesome is one that I've been wanting to listen to and I have purchased but I have not yet. This one I just really liked. This one was about, like I said, some of the famous coaches. First of all, I'm a sucker for sports movies, but, but I really liked that idea that ultimately you, you can't control, like, if you're going to win, but you can control all of the aspects of your journey, like how much time you put in, how much effort you put in, like, what your mindset is, you could, those are all things that you know, you can control. And as you know, for like, it feels like for a couple months now I've been struggling to move the product forward. Like, the product is doing well. I hit $1300 MRR.  Michele Hansen  19:28Nice. Colleen Schnettler  19:28Which is, yeah, I mean, it's great.  Michele Hansen  19:30Yeah. Colleen Schnettler  19:30I'm really happy with it. But it, I feel a little bit stuck. I feel, and I don't know if it's, I feel stuck because I haven't had the time, or if I feel stuck because I'm actually stuck. Like, I can't figure out if I feel stuck because if I, if I, let's say I gave myself a week and I just worked every day on it if I would get myself out of that kind of rut, or if there's really no rut to get out of and this is just the nature of the product. That it's just a slow burn, which is fine. I mean, it's going well, like I'm not complaining, I know some people can't, you know, haven't hit this milestone, especially not as quickly as I did. But, um, so there's that. So, I think what I want to do is I want to make a bigger push on content. Because I really haven't, I really don't have any content out there. So that's something I'm going to try and spend some time on, and like, there's just some things about the product that I want to keep iterating on, and I want to make better. Michele Hansen  20:36I mean, we were just talking about goals and the, sort of how difficult it is to have a monetary goal because you don't have control over it. And it's, it's awesome, first of all that, I mean, to have $1300 MRR means that, I mean, a month or two ago, we're talking about how you're hitting 1000. That means that like, that's, the thing, the thing about revenue for a subscription business is that revenue happens every month, like, this revenue that I have from the book, that happened once, and that's not going to happen again. But yours, people are paying you. So it's not just that you have made $1300 like, you, that is compounding and adding on top of each other. But I am sort of curious, like, there has to be some number or range in your head where you're like, I can stop consulting now. Or I can, you know, somebody offers me a full time job and I can just like, turn it down without even thinking about. Like, there has to be some number for you. Colleen Schnettler  21:38Absolutely. And I think like, and, and, absolutely. And I mean, I'm in this for the money. Like, just to be clear, that makes some people really uncomfortable. I don't know if they're not used to women saying that or what, but like, when I tell people that they get a little uncomfortable. Michele Hansen  21:53It's like, your job, like, Colleen Schnettler  21:55Yeah, like, I want to make more money.  Michele Hansen  21:56Like, of course everybody is in their job for the money. Like, yes, I'm doing this book as like, a passion project and like, which leads me to make all sorts of decisions that are confusing to people who prioritize money, like, but like you, understandably, are prioritizing money, because this is your job. And if this doesn't work out, then you know, Colleen Schnettler  22:17I gotta go get a real one. Michele Hansen  22:18I mean tons more consulting, or like, getting, getting a paycheck job is what you have to do. Like, this is not, Colleen Schnettler  22:25Yeah, so.  Michele Hansen  22:27Yeah.  Colleen Schnettler  22:28I mean, the thing I love about owning your own business is the possibilities are infinite, right? Like, I mean, I, from a personal perspective, you know, if I could get to 10k, that would be like, Oh, my gosh, I cannot, that would be, I'd be over the moon, right?  Michele Hansen  22:45So that's the number. Colleen Schnettler  22:47The number would be 10k. But, you know, why can't I have a couple million dollars a year in revenue? Like, I want a business. Michele Hansen  22:53 Why can't you have a million dollars?  Colleen Schnettler  22:56I mean, I want a business. Like, if I hit 10k and stay there forever, like, I probably would be a little frustrated. Like, to me, the whole point of having your own business is the possibilities are, in, you know, infinite. And like, one of the things I've been able to do with my modest income, is I've been able to hire two people to help write content for me. And yeah, hired someone else.  Michele Hansen  23:23Oh, you're, wait.  Colleen Schnettler  23:25And, yeah, man, I'm crazy over here. I'm just, dollar bills.  Michele Hansen  23:28Dude, and I'm like, 7 years into this and I like, just hired, like, a part time VA, like, three months ago. Colleen Schnettler  23:34Yeah, yeah. I feel like you're doing it wrong. But that's a different issue. Michele Hansen  23:37Probably. I'm doing it my way, okay.  Colleen Schnettler  23:40That's right. So, and the thing I love about that is, I, with, with the people that I'm paying, I've been able to, you know, people who are kind of writing anyway, now I can pay them to write, it seems like such a win-win. Like, I feel like I'm, it's good for them and it's good for me. And it's something I really love. So like, ultimately, I would love to build this into, like, you know, a really successful business and hire a person and, and, and be able to have created this environment where I can work with who I want and buy my beach house and all that. I mean, I'm big on the beach house if I haven't mentioned that a few times already. Michele Hansen  24:25So the first, like, the first big goal, which I think it'll be fun to reevaluate this a year from now, is like 10k basically. Colleen Schnettler  24:36Yeah. I mean, Michele Hansen  24:36To get you to 10k revenue and then to like, the big, big goal is buy Colleen a beach house. Colleen Schnettler  24:43Buy Colleen a beach house. Yeah. But to me 10k, and I don't know if I have, and I'm still, I feel like I'm in that messy middle phase. Like, I hit 1k, which makes it feel like it's a real thing. Like it's, it's legit, but I don't know if I'm in, I feel like there's a, going from zero to 1k is different than going from 1k to 10k. Right? It's a factor of 10 more. Like it's a big, you feel like going from zero to 1k is one milestone and one to 10 is your next milestone. But one to 10 is way more than zero to one, right? So, I honestly don't know if I'm positioned correctly with this product to get there. Michele Hansen  25:26Which is why you're reading Obviously Awesome. Colleen Schnettler  25:28Which is why I'm reading Obviously, Obviously Awesome. I just, I just don't know, if I'm in the right space, there's so much opportunity. I was talking to a founder recently and he talked about how he pivoted his company and moved into a totally different space, and they started growing, like they were kind of stagnant for a while, and then they kind of made this pivot, moved into a new space and their growth exploded. So, I definitely think there's a spot for me, I just don't know what it is, and I just don't know, it feels like a lot. Like the other thing that, that I wanted to just kind of bring up is when people talk about how to grow in your business. They talk about, like, building the product, as if it's this static thing that takes you like two weeks, and like writing good software is hard. And, it's a constantly evolving process. So it's something that constantly needs my you know, my attention, and that's not bad. I just feel like, you know, it's hard to balance, as most people who listen to this who are working and building a product know, it's just hard to balance all of those competing desires. So I just don't know if I have a, I guess the truth is, I don't know if I have a product that's going to get me to 10k. Like, I don't know, I don't know where it is right now. It's that product. Michele Hansen  26:52I mean, thinking back to where we were like I don't, I don't have our numbers in front of me, so I don't remember them exactly. But like, the thing that really made our revenue jump was not adding any one particular feature or one particular marketing thing. It was a pricing change, because we like, so we started out, I think we were like $31 our first month. And then I don't know, like, maybe maybe $100 the next month, and then like $400 the next month, and then in May of 2014, we had someone who needed, like, a crazy volume of usage every single day. And the only way we could make that work was basically to give them their own server. And we looked around and see what, you know, big companies were charging for these sort of really high volume, like, plans and we're, and I think we we figured out like, the cheapest one was like 10,000 a year, for, that was still like rate limited, I think to 100,000 a day, but we're like, okay, we can do like basically Unlimited, up to like 5 million a day for you for $750 a month, which worked out to 9000 a year. And adding that plan, which was like, slightly different feature-wise, but like it wasn't it wasn't like adding a feature to the API, but it was like a pricing feature, and a new plan, adding that one plan and then, like, we didn't think anyone else would ever take it, and then people started taking it. Like, that is what caused our revenue to really grow. And so I wonder if there's some space for like, you know, pricing evolution here. And like maybe there's some other way of packaging your products with the existing features in a way that's at a higher price point. But I don't like, I don't know why that is. Colleen Schnettler  28:44So I do. Michele Hansen  28:44 It's your business, like, so.  Colleen Schnettler  28:46Yeah. Michele Hansen  28:46But like, I think it's worth thinking about, like, the pricing aspects of, of this. Colleen Schnettler  28:50Yeah, well, and one of the things I do is my app has a lot more power that I'm exposing at the moment. So, I think the answer for example, like, I think I limit your file size to 50MBs, there's no reason I have to do that, like I don't, you know, there's there's a couple things someone reached out to me and told me that his company has a setup now where their customers upload files, like up to a gig(GB) through Upload Care, and then they, but they move them off the Upload Care servers, because it's so expensive, or it's a whole thing. I'm talking to him, I'm gonna, you know, have I have an interview scheduled with him to better understand Michele Hansen  29:26Whoo. Colleen Schnettler  29:26I know. Michele Hansen  29:27Music to my ears.  Colleen Schnettler  29:30But I, you know, so my point is, there's the two things that I'm not doing, I think I've might have mentioned this last week, is multiple file uploads, which I can do. I'm doing it for one client, special, and large files. So it might just be that I'm not quite positioned properly yet.  Michele Hansen  29:46Yeah. Colleen Schnettler  29:46In terms of I've really kept, I've kept a lot of that functionality close to the chest for no particular reason, just because I didn't want to like, release all the features at once and overwhelm everyone like, oh my goodness, but since I can't do those things, it seems like re, kind of revisiting, revisiting some of those options would probably be a good move for me.  Michele Hansen  30:09Yeah, I think it's really smart that you're, like you're doing a big road trip. So you're, and you're going to be listening to this book in the car, right? Colleen Schnettler  30:19Yes, ma'am. Michele Hansen  30:20Like, I find that we do our best like, business thinking on road trips, like, I, maybe it's because, you know, you like, you, you can't be doing anything else, like, you are literally stuck there. Colleen Schnettler  30:34Right. You're stuck. Michele Hansen  30:34And like, and I can't be looking at my phone in the car, otherwise, I'm going to get carsick. And, of course, it's the two of us and like, like, our go to for road trips is like, how I built this. So we end up like, really like, coming up with stuff on on, like, you know, I have, like, emailed myself of, like, conversations we've had on road trips. And so of course, it'll only be you. But, you know, those times when, like, the kids are sleeping in the back or whatever, and you can't have the audio book on and thinking all these things through, like, I think it'll be really good thinking time for yourself. And but remember to like, take notes every day on what it is that you think about. Colleen Schnettler  31:17Oh. That's a good point. I should bring a notebook. That's a really good point. Michele Hansen  31:20Like, a notebook or even just like, record a voice memo for yourself or whatever, if that's easier, just like, something so you don't, like, because there are times when when we've had like, an amazing conversation on a road trip, and then I didn't write it down. And then like, you know, a week later, we're back and we're like, oh, my God, like, what was that like, an amazing thing. And like I had this whole, like, like pre COVID, we were on a road trip. And I had this whole idea of like, our content strategy built around, like really unique address data. Like, for example, in South Carolina, there's three, there's like four towns called Norway, Sweden, Denmark, and Finland, all right next to each other, like, I was gonna, like, write about all of these, like, odd location, address things, and I came up with this great name for it on the road trip, and then I like, I still cannot remember what that name was, so take notes. Colleen Schnettler  32:09Yeah, I totally, I totally hear you. I know exactly what you're saying. I think that's a great idea. I think I have a lot of thinking to do. You know, I kind of feel like it was really exciting in the beginning when I was trying to launch the product. And then it's really exciting. And then everything is very, very exciting. And then you hit your first milestone, and then it's kind of like, oh, but now there's another milestone, okay, so I never really win.  Michele Hansen  32:32Right. The goalpost just moves. Colleen Schnettler  32:34The goalpost continuously moves. So it's interesting to me, I mean, I have a lot to think about is like, is this a product that can get me to 10k? How do I, and how do I get there? Right? Like, what is what do I need to do to get there? As I just said, when I was giving you my little pep talk, like it's putting in the work, I mean, you know, it's not going to sell itself. So yeah, I'm ready to really, really give it some time to think about it on my epic journey. Michele Hansen  33:01Alright, well, on, on that note, I guess we should just sort of make a quick programming note that Colleen will be away for the next two weeks. And so we will, we will be leading on that social side of Software Social and have some guests coming up that I'm super excited about. And then I will be away the following week, so Colleen is gonna have a guest on, and then we will both be like, basically a month from now. Colleen Schnettler  33:34Oh my gosh. I won't talk to you for a month. Michele Hansen  33:35Wow. That feels so weird.  Colleen Schnettler  33:37Oh, gracious. That's sad. Michele Hansen  33:45I mean, you'll text me roadtrip updates. Colleen Schnettler  33:45Obviously. Michele Hansen  33:46Yeah.  Colleen Schnettler  33:46Obviously, I'm so excited to see, like, cactuses, by the way.  Michele Hansen  33:52Yeah? Colleen Schnettler  33:52In Arizona. Yeah. I'm so excited to see the great American West. Michele Hansen  33:55I've heard Arizona is, like, gorgeous. Colleen Schnettler  33:57Yeah, I'm super pumped to see a big cactus. Anyway. Michele Hansen  34:00Oh, I've been there. I was okay, whatever. We're gonna stop here for today. Colleen Schnettler  34:07Wrap it up. Michele Hansen  34:11I'll talk to you next week.

Normally, when generating a PDF, I would just inline the CFML code inside the CFDocument tag-body; and, I'd use the CFDocumentItem tag with type="pagebreak" to create page-breaks. Which begs the question: if I'm using an externalized HTML source file, how do I create page-breaks? It turns out, since the CFDocument tag supports some CSS, we can use the page-break-before property to generate page-breaks without the CFDocumentItem tag in Lucee CFML 5.3.7.47.https://www.bennadel.com/blog/4045-creating-page-breaks-in-cfdocument-without-using-cfdocumentitem-in-lucee-cfml-5-3-7-47.htm Blog - Ben Nadel - CFSaveContent Trim And Append Attributes In Lucee CFML 5.3.7.47The other day on the Lucee Dev forum, I proposed that we add a file attribute to the CFSaveContent tag in Lucee CFML. And, as I was writing that proposal, I pulled up the docs page for the CFSaveContent tag; which is when I was surprised to see that Lucee actually offers two additional attributes on that tag: trim and append. I had no idea that these existed. So, I wanted to put together a quick demo (for myself) in Lucee CFML 5.3.7.47.https://www.bennadel.com/blog/4044-cfsavecontent-trim-and-append-attributes-in-lucee-cfml-5-3-7-47.htm Blog - Adam Cameron - Setting up a MariaDB JDBC datasource in ColdFusion 2021 in Application.cfcThis is how I needed to set my datasource in Application.cfc to get ColdFusion 2021 to connect to MariaDB. I'm writing this because I could not - for the life of me - find this information in any one place in the docs. Nor could I find it anywhere else via Google. I have pieced this together from various sources (including Lucee docs, which were more helpful than the Adobe ColdFusion documentation), and want to put it in one place for my own future reference, or should anyone else need to know how to set up a MariaDB datasouce in ColdFusion using their JDBC driver. The params should also work for any other JDBC datasource.https://blog.adamcameron.me/2021/05/setting-up-mariadb-jdbc-datasource-in.html Blog - Ray Camden - Updating (and Supporting) URL Parameters with Vue.jsToday's article is something that's been kicking around in my head for a few months now, and seeing a recent article (Update URL query parameters as you type in the input using JavaScript) encouraged me to finally get around to writing it. The basic idea is to make it easier for a person to share or bookmark the current state of an application. Let's start with a basic example.https://www.raymondcamden.com/2021/05/08/updating-and-supporting-url-parameters-with-vuejs Blog - Ben Nadel - Collecting HTML Class Name Attributes In Template Rendering In Lucee CFML 5.3.7.47The other day, I was updating a CFML template to include some conditional CSS class names in an ordered list. And, by the time I was done, the CFML looked a hot mess with several ternary operators all being interpolated into one class="" attribute. And, as I sat there, wallowing in the shame of such ugly looking code, it hit me like a bolt of lightening: Angular already solved this problem so elegantly with the NgClass directive that applies dynamic class names based on a set of conditionals. The same exactly thing should be quite doable in Lucee CFML 5.3.7.47.https://www.bennadel.com/blog/4043-collecting-html-class-name-attributes-in-template-rendering-in-lucee-cfml-5-3-7-47.htm Blog - Ben Nadel - Using Both SrcFile And CFDocumentItem In The Same CFDocument Tag In Lucee CFML 5.3.7.47At InVision, we generate a surprising number of PDF documents. For the most part, the CFDocument tag in Lucee CFML just works. But, sometimes, PDF generation eats-up all the RAM and an OOM (Out of Memory) error is thrown. As such, I'm always on the lookout for ways to tweak the PDF generation process to see if I can consume fewer resources. One idea that I had was to pre-generate the HTML file instead of just rendering the HTML content within the CFDocument tag-body. But, I wasn't sure if I could combine the concept of the srcfile attribute with the child-tag, CFDocumentItem. As such, I wanted to try it out in Lucee CFML 5.3.7.47.https://www.bennadel.com/blog/4042-using-both-srcfile-and-cfdocumentitem-in-the-same-cfdocument-tag-in-lucee-cfml-5-3-7-47.htm Blog - Ben Nadel - Validating And Documenting Complex Object Structures With CFParam In Lucee CFML 5.3.7.47At InVision, we generate our transactional emails by including a CFML template into a buffer; and then, using that buffer as the body attribute of a CFMail tag. And, since the definition of that template feels somewhat "far away" from the context in which it is being consumed, I've gotten into the habit of parameterizing the template variables using CFParam tags. This way, it's intensely obvious which variables are being used in the template; and, if I accidentally forget to define a variable during refactoring, the template will blow-up when I go to test it. Part of what makes this easy to do is the fact that the CFParam tag can validate complex object structures. I don't often use it this way, so I thought it would be interesting to share in Lucee CFML 5.3.7.47.https://www.bennadel.com/blog/4041-validating-and-documenting-complex-object-structures-with-cfparam-in-lucee-cfml-5-3-7-47.htm Blog - Charlie Arehart - Adobe CF certification now only US$149, including many hours of trainingIf you may not have heard the news or noticed it on the Adobe CF Certification page, the price is now listed as only US$149.https://coldfusion.adobe.com/2021/05/adobe-cf-certification-now-us149-including-many-hours-training/ CFML JobsSeveral positions available on https://www.getcfmljobs.com/Listing over 120 ColdFusion positions from 52 companies across 90 locations in 5 Countries since Dec 1st.Full-Time - Coldfusion/SUNCORP INSURANCE at Sydney NSW - Australia Posted May 11https://www.getcfmljobs.com/jobs/index.cfm/australia/ColdfusionSUNCORP-INSURANCE-at-Sydney-NSW/11267 Full-Time - Coldfusion Developer at Vancouver, BC - Canada Posted May 08https://www.getcfmljobs.com/jobs/index.cfm/canada/Coldfusion-Developer-at-Vancouver-BC/11266 Full-Time - Coldfusion at Bengaluru, Karnataka - India Posted May 07https://www.getcfmljobs.com/jobs/index.cfm/india/Coldfusion-at-Bengaluru-Karnataka/11265 Full-Time - ColdFusion Developer (Secret clearance) at Chantilly, VA - United States Posted May 05https://www.getcfmljobs.com/jobs/index.cfm/united-states/ColdFusion-Developer-Secret-clearance-at-Chantilly-VA/11256 ForgeBox Module of the WeekFacebook Conversions - CFML by Matthew ClementeA CFML wrapper for the Facebook Conversions API.

I've been using getTickCount() since the beginning of time and I never once noticed that it accepted an argument (at least in the Lucee CFML runtime). As such, I thought it might be worth sharing this feature more broadly.https://www.bennadel.com/blog/4036-gettickcount-precision-argument-in-lucee-cfml-5-3-7-47.htmBlog - Adam Cameron - How TDD and automated testing helped me solve an Nginx config problem I had created for myselfTestBox and TDD to the rescue (again)!https://blog.adamcameron.me/2021/05/how-tdd-and-automated-testing-helped-me.htmlBlog - Ben Nadel - Modernizing My CSV (Comma Separated Value) Parser In Lucee CFML 5.3.7.47In the past week, I've written a few posts about generating CSV (Comma Separated Value) data in ColdFusion, including some experimentation with "lazy" queries and streaming CSV files in Lucee CFML. Just coincidentally, Adam Cameron asked me about a very old post that I wrote for parsing CSV data in ColdFusion. I had taken that post down due to some questionable content; so, I thought this was a perfect opportunity to rewrite my CSV parser using modern ColdFusion syntax in Lucee CFML 5.3.7.47.https://www.bennadel.com/blog/4037-modernizing-my-csv-comma-separated-value-parser-in-lucee-cfml-5-3-7-47.htmBlog - Wil de Bruin - Scheduled tasks in ColdboxLuis Majano recently described the coldbox 6.4.0 release, which is mainly about scheduling. There is extensive documentation but scheduling is now so easy to code, I just wanted to share some examples with you. Coldbox 6.4 was only released a few weeks ago, but I think is is so extremely useful, we already implemented it in several projectshttps://shiftinsert.nl/scheduled-tasks-in-coldbox/Blog - Ben Nadel - Using ColdFusion Custom Tags To Create An HTML Email DSL In Lucee CFML 5.3.7.47, Part XIVAfter months of incrementally building-out my ColdFusion custom tag DSL (Domain Specific Language) for HTML emails, I've started to apply this technique to the transactional emails at InVision! I'm totes excited about this, not only because I think it will bring a pleasant unity to the look-and-feel of our transactional emails, but also because it will put the DSL to the test in a real-world scenario. And, already, it's starting to flesh-out some issues. As I mentioned in earlier posts, I've stumbled over some unexpected behaviors with the getBaseTagList() function and the getBaseTagData() function in Lucee CFML; as such, I'm going to simplify the way I walk the parent-tag list in my DSL.https://www.bennadel.com/blog/4038-using-coldfusion-custom-tags-to-create-an-html-email-dsl-in-lucee-cfml-5-3-7-47-part-xiv.htmBlog - Adam Cameron - Abort; abort;Lucee’s tag-in-script syntax strikes againhttps://blog.adamcameron.me/2021/05/abort-abort.htmlBlog - Ben Nadel - Setting Global, Default Tag Attributes With "this.tag" In Lucee CFML 5.3.7.47In Lucee CFML, you can assign global, default tag attributes using the this.tag object in the Application.cfc ColdFusion component. I've never actually used this before; and, I've seen the technique mentioned both with and without the cf-prefix. As such, I wasn't sure what the official approach was; and, I wanted to try it out for myself in Lucee CFML 5.3.7.47. It seems that both syntax approaches work.https://www.bennadel.com/blog/4039-setting-global-default-tag-attributes-with-this-tag-in-lucee-cfml-5-3-7-47.htmBlog - Adam Cameron - CFML: pseudo-constructor polymorphic inheritance expectations managementIt would seem the pseudo-constructor code of a base-class is not aware it's being called from a sub-classhttps://blog.adamcameron.me/2021/05/cfml-pseudo-constructor-polymorphic.htmlBlog - Wil de Bruin - Closures vs lambda expressionsYes, if you ever read my twitter profile, I am a bit old fashioned. I started writing CFML when it was still called DBML loooooong ago. Javascript was still simple, and javascript frameworks were eh… nonexisting? So don’t expect me to explain you everything about closures and lambda expressions. But they are not the same in CFML (ColdFusion, specifically), that’s what I found out today.

This tag will jump the control flow back up to the CFTry ingress, re-running the volatile execution pathway. I'm not sure I've seen this tag before. And, I don't actually "retry" much code in my ColdFusion applications. But, every now and then, I'll have some "exponential" back-off logic around a remote system call. As such, I wanted to see how my traditional approach to this would compare and contrast with the retry semantics in Lucee CFML 5.3.7.47.https://www.bennadel.com/blog/4025-experimenting-with-try-catch-retry-semantics-in-lucee-cfml-5-3-7-47.htm Blog - Ben Nadel - Using Array-Like Structs As Arrays In Lucee CFML 5.3.7.47The other day, when I was working on unifying type casting errors in Lucee CFML, I spent some time digging around in the Lucee source code on GitHub looking for examples of casting error messages. As I was doing this, I came across a Java class called StructAsArray. This wrapper class appears to allow array-like Structs to be treated as Arrays in some scenarios. I don't recall ever seeing this discussed; so, I wanted to perform a quick experiment in Lucee CFML 5.3.7.47.https://www.bennadel.com/blog/4026-using-array-like-structs-as-arrays-in-lucee-cfml-5-3-7-47.htm Blog - Ben Nadel - Unifying Type Casting Exceptions For Cleaner Log Aggregation In Lucee CFML 5.3.7.47At InVision, we use Loggly as our centralized log aggregation service. And, when I go to consume said logs, I am generally breaking them down by "Error Message". Most of the time, this is great. However, when a script kiddie starts barfing malicious data into my pages, it creates a lot of noise in Loggly since Lucee CFML 5.3.7.47 creates unique error messages for each type casting exception. In order to cut down on this noise, and to help the security team fine-tune the WAF (Web Application Firewall) rules, I wanted to unify all type casting errors under a single error message.https://www.bennadel.com/blog/4024-unifying-type-casting-exceptions-for-cleaner-log-aggregation-in-lucee-cfml-5-3-7-47.htm Blog - Matthew Clemente - Use the PostgreSQL JDBC Driver Directly with ColdFusionFor reasons irrelevant to this post, I wanted to run a query directly via the PostgreSQL JDBC Driver, bypassing cfquery.

I believe this concept stems from a lack of strategy, not a lack of capacity. I am not going to argue that every hour of every day has equal potential; but, I do think that we can employ strategies to maximize every hour if we learn to lean into the constraints of our day instead of fighting them.https://www.bennadel.com/blog/4023-task-switching-sensory-specific-satiety-and-staying-productive-at-work.htm Blog - Luis Majano - Ortus Solutions - ColdBox Debugger Mini-APM v3 Launched!We are so excited to bring about a major release for the ColdBox Debugger project: v3.0.0.

Acts 2: 42-47The fellowship of the believersThey devoted themselves to the apostles’ teaching and to fellowship, to the breaking of bread and to prayer. Everyone was filled with awe at the many wonders and signs performed by the apostles. 44 All the believers were together and had everything in common. They sold property and possessions to give to anyone who had need. Every day they continued to meet together in the temple courts. They broke bread in their homes and ate together with glad and sincere hearts, praising God and enjoying the favour of all the people. And the Lord added to their number daily those who were being saved.

Susan shares about the importance of willingness. Even the tiniest crack of willingness can be enough to open the door to a complete change. Today, Susan turns to her Higher Power daily to ask that she be relieved of the bondage of self and then maintains that through connections in the program and fellowship. THE IDEA OF FAITHDo not let any prejudice you may have against spiritual terms deter you from honestly asking yourself what they mean to you.— ALCOHOLICS ANONYMOUS, p. 47The idea of faith is a very large chunk to swallow when fear, doubt and anger abound in and around me. Sometimes just the idea of doing something different, something I am not accustomed to doing, can eventually become an act of faith if I do it regularly, and do it without debating whether it's the right thing to do. When a bad day comes along and everything is going wrong, a meeting or a talk with another drunk often distracts me just enough to persuade me that everything is not quite as impossible, as overwhelming as I had thought. In the same way, going to a meeting or talking to a fellow alcoholic are acts of faith; I believe I'm arresting my disease.

Books to Read Based on Your Enneagram Type Information doesn’t equal transformation.Sometimes we think there's something more we need to know before we take action. Although I’m usually a take-action kind of girl, when I’m stressed I can go into analysis paralysis mode.Remember: Integration of the information equals transformation. So if you’re struggling to take action, you need a guide. In this episode, I help you take the power tools you already have hanging in your metaphorical garage and use them to accelerate the transformation of your life.Why books As you’ve dug into the enneagram, you’ve learned that each type has core motives, fears and the hidden—or not so hidden—factor that holds each of us back. The books I talk about for each enneagram type will help you unpack that factor, better understand yourself, and start digging into the core motive behind everything you do. Books for all enneagram types Personal development books are my jam. The most important book that I’ve ever read was actually given to me in rehab. The key to this book and why it’s so powerful: It can be used as a workbook. What is it? The Gifts of Imperfection by Brene Brown. The other book every enneagram type should read is The Big Leap by Gay Hendricks. This book is great for looking at what we’re most afraid of and considering our true motives.Books for each enneagram type Going further, I talk about each enneagram type briefly as well as the book I recommend for each one and why. Here’s a quick recap:Type 1: Banish Your Inner Critic by Denise JacobsType 2: Braving the Wilderness by Brene BrownType 3: How to Do Nothing: Resisting the Attention Economy by Jenny OdellType 4: Stop Doing That Sh*t: End Self-Sabotage and Demand Your Life Back by Gary John BishopType 5: Quiet: The Power of Introverts in a World That Can't Stop Talking by Susan CainType 6: Blink: The Power of Thinking without Thinking by Malcolm GladwellType 7: The Untethered Soul by Michael A. SingerType 8: The Power of Vulnerability by Brene BrownType 9: You Are a Badass: How to Stop Doubting Your Greatness and Start Living an Awesome Life by Jen SinceroQuotes:1:40Integration of the information equals transformation.2:47The more that you desire to grow and level up your life, the more will be required.8:02“Authenticity is a collection of choices that we have to make every single day.” —Brene Brown8:42You can’t have the beautiful transformation without demo day.10:26“Each of us has an inner thermostat setting that determines how much love, success, and creativity we allow ourselves to enjoy.” —Gay Hendricks13:10“By giving the inner critic less of your bandwidth, you access, express, and cultivate your creativity.” —Denise Jacobs16:02“The truth about who we are lives in our hearts.” —Brene Brown21:56“You got yourself to this point in your life and I’m going to show you how you subconsciously did it—how you fucked yourself and how to dig yourself out.” —Gary John Bishop25:00“Don’t think of introversion as something that needs to be cured.” —Susan Cain33:05“You can’t numb those hard feelings without numbing the other ones.” —Brene Brown36:35“If you base your self worth on what everyone else thinks of you, you hand all your power over to other people.” —Jen Sincero

On today's episode we are speaking to Brooke Romney, writer, speaker, educator, and mom of 4 boys. We discuss a powerful letter that she wrote to her kids and how she drew inspiration for it. Each new school year, Brooke writes a letter to her boys in order to help encourage them, helping them to push their learning, creativity, and take advantage of improving their minds. We talk about the pandemic and how you can adjust the education of each child because each child learns differently and will need adjustments to how they learn in order to maximize their learning process. Many kids are embarrassed to ask for help, but this is a good opportunity to let your kids know they can ask for help or tell you that the type of learning they're facing isn't working for them and that it's ok to admit that. There are ways to get your kids interested in learning and engaged in their education, such as having them write about subjects in which they actually have an interest. Brooke tells about the things that actually bring joy to your kids, such as working on their talents, learning, and relationships with their friends instead of playing video games or watching TV all day. We discuss words and how much your children's words can affect the people around them, and then we can also take this same lesson and apply it to ourselves. Inspiration behind this letter 0:37The biggest thing we hear from parents right now 7:05How we got Patty to enjoy writing 13:47The power our children have 22:04“In there I also talk about becoming a lifetime learner. This is your kid's first chance to decide if learning is something that they want to be a part of because this year it will be very easy for them to just slink back in the shadows and no one will notice and they can make every excuse of why it wasn't successful because there are a million of them. And I think we can flip this around like you said as parents. We can be bothered and frustrated that the school system isn't completely taking care of our kids' education like we hoped it would. Or we can also dig in and become lifelong learners. We can figure out what works best for one child and kind of really push that type of education for them.” 5:18Instagram:@brookeromneywriteshttps://www.facebook.com/theirishmummy/ https://www.instagram.com/the_irish_mummy/https://www.theirishmummy.comhttps://www.theirishmummy.com/ebook

Integrating the Enneagram to move the needle in your life It’s Tuesday which means it’s time for another EnneaTalk episode. As we wrapped up our series with the Enneagram types last week, I figured it was time to talk about the most important part—integration. Integrating the Enneagram is where the magic happens, and I discuss just how to do that, what it looks like, and how it can change your life for the better. Listen to this week’s episode to hear how integration can mean transformation, how in order to lead you have to know how to lead yourself, and how knowing how to use the Enneagram is the first step in transforming every aspect of your life. Information doesn’t mean transformation Whether you are a seasoned Enneagram user or a newbie just figuring out what your type is, I discuss the importance of integration and how the overload of information out there doesn’t necessarily mean transformation. I discuss how if you are using the Enneagram and aren’t seeing results in your life, it is crucial to ensure you are typed correctly, which can be difficult without a guide. Leading yourself first before others I dive into how the Enneagram can be used as one of the greatest tools in your toolbox if you know how to use it. I share how it can help shift your focus from self-sabotage and destruction to love and compassion, and how self-awareness and understanding yourself can help you become a better leader. I discuss how learning the Enneagram was the greatest gift I never saw coming, how I learned and help others learn to integrate it into all aspects of their life, and how it moved the needle in my business, relationships, finances, and family.Quotes:0:57The Enneagram, as you’ve heard me say, is an amazing tool—it's the greatest personal development tool I have ever used.3:27I love watching the light bulbs go off for people, and all of a sudden all this self doubt, and beating themselves up goes away. 4:37I'm all about leadership, but leadership starts with you.6:47The best way to lead is to lead yourself first.8:05When we can get you back on track to who you were always meant to be and understanding who you are really, everything starts to shift.09:16You have to be in integrity in all areas of your life, honestly to be the most effective leader.10:20You can compartmentalize areas of your life but you can't compartmentalize integrity.12:19Learning how to use this tool has really kept me on track the last decade.13:07When you are able to have compassion and love for yourself, you can freely give it to other people.16:50Integrating the Enneagram in all aspects of my life makes things a lot easier and I want to help you do the same.

John 5:19-47The religious leaders are pissed that Jesus did something GREAT on the day of rest!!! They accuse him of blasphemy for equating himself to God. Jesus masterfully lays out His claim and endorses their charge.

Hey, everyone! Today, I am joined by Jacques Hopkins, founder of Piano in 21 Days. After years of piano lessons, Jacques realized that he could only play two songs no matter how much he practiced.

He joins me today to share his course, how he struggled with sales, and the system that eventually helped him generate $40k per month. Enjoy! One of the biggest reasons that people don't succeed as an online course creator is they give up too easily. Episode Quotes “Learning piano doesn’t have to take years. It can be faster, more fun, and easier than you thought.” "It wasn't until I created an online course based on something that I love that I found success with my own online business."

Guitar lesson 39 is a study of chord types by working through many of the major and dominant possibilities. By adding each note of a scale to a triad, Dan shows me how to explore chord sounds rather than shapes. We also look at upper extensions and finally look at one way to use chords which are out of key. Dan also raises substitution as a way really build interest rhythmic parts. Thank you for tuning in and for all your comments and support. Main timings: 00:01:26 Introductory questions and how to think about chords 00:05:43 How are chords formed and how do we name them? 00:15:53 Introducing the idea of adding each note in turn from the scale 00:16:38 Adding the 6 (A) = C6 00:20:47 Ear training, singing, melodies and active listening 00:35:09 The next note is the 7 (B) forming a CMaj7 00:39:43 Example of using as substitutions 00:39:56 Introducing the Blues as using dominant 7th instead of major 7th 00:44:55 Second octave 00:45:44 Forming a C9 by stacking the b7 and the 9 00:46:20 Stacking the major7 with a 9 = Cmaj9 00:47:25 Stacking a C9 (1,3,5,7,9) with an 11 = C11 00:48:56 Minor version with the minor 3rd instead of the major 3rd 00:50:49 Adding the 13 (A) = C13 00:55:39 Demonstrating substituting 00:59:23 Covering chords which fall out of the key Detailed timings: 00:01:26 I introduce the lesson by asking for some input about how to think about and use chords 00:03:08 What chords (and scales) go together well and why? 00:05:43 How are chords formed and how do we name them to identify their structure? 00:10:39 Chords are not 'shapes', they are notes played together in quick succession 00:14:02 Using sus chords as passing chords 00:15:53 When considering all the different types of chords possible, then it is a case of adding each note from the scale 00:16:38 Adding the 6 (A) = C6 00:18:03 Attach a memory, meaning, name, sound to each chord to be able to audiate the kind of sound it will make 00:20:47 Identifying intervals by ear, attaching songs to different intervals and the value of singing 00:21:56 Playing and singing harmonies 00:24:26 Sing your licks with an example from Dan, developing your unique sound and playing melodically 00:32:36 You only get that personal stamp on your sound when someone chases the sound in their head 00:33:13 Make sure you practice engaging your ears and listening to the rest of the band when you play and be responsive 00:35:09 The next note is the 7 (B) forming a CMaj7 00:35:44 How the chords are structured with the order of the notes within the chords 00:36:48 Another exercise is to keep the different chords close together on the fretboard 00:37:59 Recap of all the chord types we have got so far and using them as substitutions when playing rhythm 00:39:43 Example of using substitutions 00:39:56 Introducing the Blues as using dominant 7th instead of major 7th - or chords forming from the Mixolydian mode instead of the major scale 00:43:58 Mustang Sally as 7th chord song 00:44:55 So now we move to the second octave 00:45:44 Forming a C9 by stacking the b7 and the 9 00:46:20 Stacking the major7 with a 9 = Cmaj9 00:47:25 Stacking a C9 (1,3,5,7,9) with an 11 = C11 00:48:56 Minor version with the minor 3rd instead of the major 3rd 00:50:15 The need on the guitar to drop some notes - first the 3rd, or 5th 00:50:49 Adding the 13 (A) = C13 00:53:47 The other thing to do when exploring chords is to find inversions 00:55:39 Demonstrating substituting dominant chords - C7, C9, C13, etc.. 00:56:23 Demonstrating substituting major 7th chords with maj9 maj13, etc. 00:56:30 Homework: take other scales and run through the same exercise (perhaps also the modes) 00:59:23 Covering chords which fall out of the key and a quick discussion of George Harrison as a guitarist 01:00:52 Lick from I Feel Fine 01:01:06 Mention of Chet Atkins influence on George Harrison 01:02:19 Return to the topic of quick discussion of chords which fall slightly out of key

We are joined this week by the co-founder of the permaculture movement David Holmgren to discuss his ideas behind retrofitting the suburbs as part of our transition to a low carbon society. Have the suburbs been given a bad press when in fact they can be a tremendous resource? Is increasing densities a bad thing and if so, how do we prevent our conurbations from continuing to sprawl outwards? Can we return to localised, sharing economies? These questions are becoming ever more pertinent in light of the climate emergency. The interview begins at 24:47The music is 'This Land Will Change" by Shock Octopus:https://shockoctopus.bandcamp.com/track/this-land-will-change-2

Judges 6:12 (NKJV) And the Angel of theLordappeared to him, and said to him, “TheLordiswith you, you mighty man of valour!” John 8:32 (NKJV) “And you shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free.” Daniel 6:10 ‘with his windows open toward Jerusalem, he knelt down on his knees three times that day, and prayed and gave thanks before his God, as was his custom since early days.’ Daniel 11:32 (NKJV) …the people who know their God shall be strong, and carry outgreat exploits. Philippians 3:8 (AMP) ‘…I count everything as loss compared to the priceless privilegeandsupreme advantage of knowing Christ Jesus my Lord [and of growing more deeply and thoroughly acquainted with Him—a joy unequalled]. For His sake I have lost everything, and I consider it all garbage, so that I may gain Christ’ Daniel 6:4 (AMP) Then the [other two] commissioners and the satraps began trying to find a reason to bring a complaint against Daniel concerning the [administration of the] kingdom; but they could find no reason for an accusation orevidence ofcorruption, because he was faithful [a man of high moral character and personal integrity], and no negligence or corruption [of any kind] was found in him. Daniel 2:46-48 (NKJV) Then King Nebuchadnezzar fell on his face, prostrate before Daniel, and commanded that they should present an offering and incense to him.47The king answered Daniel, and said, “Truly your Godisthe God of gods, the Lord of kings, and a revealer of secrets, since you could reveal this secret.”48Then the king promoted Daniel and gave him many great gifts; and he made him ruler over the whole province of Babylon, and chief administrator over all the wisemenof Babylon. Daniel 2:49 (NLT) ‘At Daniel’s request, the king appointed Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego to be in charge of all the affairs of the province of Babylon…’ Daniel 6:3 (NKJV) ‘…Daniel distinguished himself above the governors and satraps, because an excellent spiritwasin him; and the king gave thought to setting him over the whole realm.’ Romans 12:2 (NKJV) ‘do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, that you may prove whatisthat good and acceptable and perfect will of God.’ Matthew 5:40-42 (NKJV) If anyone wants to sue you and take away your tunic, let him haveyourcloak also.41And whoever compels you to go one mile, go with him two.42Give to him who asks you, and from him who wants to borrow from you do not turn away.

The Crucifixion 26As they led him away, they seized Simon from Cyrene, who was on his way in from the country, and put the cross on him and made him carry it behind Jesus. 27A large number of people followed him, including women who mourned and wailed for him. 28Jesus turned and said to them, "Daughters of Jerusalem, do not weep for me; weep for yourselves and for your children. 29For the time will come when you will say, 'Blessed are the barren women, the wombs that never bore and the breasts that never nursed!' 30Then    " 'they will say to the mountains, "Fall on us!"       and to the hills, "Cover us!" '[d] 31For if men do these things when the tree is green, what will happen when it is dry?" 32Two other men, both criminals, were also led out with him to be executed. 33When they came to the place called the Skull, there they crucified him, along with the criminals—one on his right, the other on his left. 34Jesus said, "Father, forgive them, for they do not know what they are doing."[e] And they divided up his clothes by casting lots. 35The people stood watching, and the rulers even sneered at him. They said, "He saved others; let him save himself if he is the Christ of God, the Chosen One." 36The soldiers also came up and mocked him. They offered him wine vinegar 37and said, "If you are the king of the Jews, save yourself." 38There was a written notice above him, which read:|sc THIS IS THE KING OF THE JEWS. 39One of the criminals who hung there hurled insults at him: "Aren't you the Christ? Save yourself and us!" 40But the other criminal rebuked him. "Don't you fear God," he said, "since you are under the same sentence? 41We are punished justly, for we are getting what our deeds deserve. But this man has done nothing wrong." 42Then he said, "Jesus, remember me when you come into your kingdom.[f]" 43Jesus answered him, "I tell you the truth, today you will be with me in paradise."Jesus' Death 44It was now about the sixth hour, and darkness came over the whole land until the ninth hour, 45for the sun stopped shining. And the curtain of the temple was torn in two. 46Jesus called out with a loud voice, "Father, into your hands I commit my spirit." When he had said this, he breathed his last. 47The centurion, seeing what had happened, praised God and said, "Surely this was a righteous man." 48When all the people who had gathered to witness this sight saw what took place, they beat their breasts and went away. 49But all those who knew him, including the women who had followed him from Galilee, stood at a distance, watching these things.
