Marriage is beautiful. It’s hard, but it’s beautiful. Work can be beautiful. Hard, but beautiful. When you combine marriage and work, those things can be beautiful, but they can also be really, really hard. My guests today recently completed the largest research study on working married couples in the US, and spent the last few years interviewing couples who want to stay in love, change the world, and raise a happy family. Jeff and Andrew Shinabarger. Jeff is the co-author of Love or Work: Is it Possible to Change the World, Stay in Love, and Raise a Family. He’s also the founder of Plywood People, a nonprofit in Atlanta leading a community of startups doing good. His work has been featured in Forbes Inc., CNN, USA Weekend, and Huffington Post. He’s mentored over 600 startups and created the largest social entrepreneurship event in the South called “Plywood Presents.” His wife, Andre Shinabarger is an adventurer who loves seeing the world. She was born in Boliva, and she has a deep passion for building community with marginalized people groups. She works at Grady Memorial Hospital as a physician’s assistant and is an adjunct professor for Emory University as well as an advisor to Plywood People, host of the Love or Work Podcast, and coauthor of the Love or Work book along with her husband, Jeff. These two are incredible and I’ve long admired their work through Plywood People and Plywood Presents. It was such a joy to have them on the show. You’re going to get so much out of this conversation whether you’re married or single. This episode is for everyone. 6:41 – The Jeff and Andre 101 Andre was born in Bolivia and Spanish is her first language. She is a physician’s assistant at Grady Health System where she and her colleagues take care of underserved communities. She and Jeff met in college, have been married for 18 years, and have two children who are 10 and 8 years-old. Jeff leads an organization called Plywood People, a nonprofit that leads a community of startups doing good. He loves getting involved in these projects to help pass on his wisdom, lessons from mistakes, and help people grow their dream projects. Early on, Jeff and Andre stared a project called “Gift Card Giver.” They would collect unused gift cards and give them to people in need. People started sending their gift cards from all over the nation. Because of that, people started connecting Jeff with other people with ideas. They gave away a few hundred thousand dollars in gift cards, and people started recognizing Jeff and asking him how to help them get their ideas off the ground. The name Plywood People came after Jeff and Andrew traveled extensively doing various relief work. He always saw Plywood as a short-term fix to a long-term problem, and people giving their lives to continue raising up a place and making it better. 11:48 – Love or Work? The Book Love or Work came out of a long personal journey of working with people who are starting their own business. Unfortunately, they often also saw a lot of relationships falling apart because of those startup businesses efforts. It’s hard to maintain and nurture relationships when so much of an entrepreneur’s time is taken up by stress and trying to get a new project off the ground. Often business mentoring sessions would also turn into therapy sessions with clients emotional over their stressed relationships or lack of free time to spend with their partners. They saw such a big need in the community that they started to research how many people were feeling that struggle. They wanted to know if it was really possible to do it all or is that just an idealistic notion? Jeff and Andrew started interviewing people and asking more questions. The book is especially timely during this pandemic we’re experiencing in 2020. With many couples now working at home and in close proximity, many are struggling to adjust to this adjustment in their increased time together at home. Virtual school, kids, and general stress adds even more pressure on relationships. 14:54 – Podcasts and Pandemics Jeff and Andre also have a Love or Work Podcast in addition to the book. They help couples focus on their marriage with resources that help people have not only a great marriage, but also a great career and family, all at the same time. It is possible! They hosted over 100 couples on their podcast and did a research project where they surveyed 1500 working couples! They wanted a broad perspective backed up by data. Andre personally didn’t think she wanted kids because she didn’t think she could move up in a career if she had kids too. 83% of couples say that working has made them better parents. The proof is in the data. We really don’t have to choose. We can both work and be good parents. Women and men feel guilt being away from their kids while they are working, but you can let go a of a lot of that guilt. Jeff cares a lot about Andre’s purpose and while it is not perfect, many couples reported that they desire that support in their relationships. It should be a marriage issue, not a career issue. It’s not a topic that is brought up in marriage books, but if a partner doesn’t value the other’s purpose, they don’t value their partner. Women are coming out of the workforce 4x more than men right now. They are bearing a lot of the burden during the pandemic to both work and care for their children. Just because we’re home more now doesn’t mean we’re connecting. Both the Love or Work book and podcast helps people connect heart-wise and get deeper into issues of work, love, and kids. It has work couples can do together at the end of the book as well. When was the last time you invested in resources to help you with your relationship? We invest in so much, but this important aspect of our lives together is too often an exception to that. 30:15 – Love and Work Through the Years A desire for passion and fulfilment in work has started to develop in the last few decades in our society: A real deep desire for passion and purpose in what we do for our careers, and that is only going to continue. More families are likely to include to people with deep passion for their work. The question is how to maintain partner relationships, relationships with the children in the family, and how everyone stays healthy in that. 95% of participants in Jeff and Andre’s study believed it’s possible to say in love, change the world, and raise a happy family. However, they’re all exhausted trying to do it. No one goes to counseling, they don’t exercise, they don’t take vacations. It’s not worth it to “have it all” if you’re having it all in an unhealthy state. Jeff and Andre talk about practical ways to have it all in a way that’s healthy. This increased time at home has also spurred difficult and important conversations and given couples time to reflect on their relationship and make sure they’re both willing to stay on the same team long term. It’s a hard but vital question. Counseling and opening the conversation for feedback to trusted friends is vital. 37:42 – Strong Marriages If we change the world and lose our family, we lose. Sometimes we have to say no to work and prioritize our kids. You can change your family set up if it is no longer working for you. It’s your family and marriage, and you can adjust together and edit accordingly. Don’t force something that isn’t working for you and your family just because you said you’d do it. It will help you grow together rather than grow apart. A finding from their research that genuinely surprised Andrew is that only 8% of couples surveyed have ever gotten counseling. Even if counseling feels scary, even talking to someone close to you who may be further along in their journey or buying a book to help can set couples on a better path simply because they are investing in something for their relationship. Only 31% of couples have a shared calendar. This also surprised Jeff and Andre. Especially if you have kids, a shared calendar can save a lot of relationships from frustration, miscommunication, and fights. 59% of people surveyed do now use their vacation time! Taking time to step away to be together is a privilege that families should take advantage of if they have it! There are so many forms of different intimacy that can emerge while on vacation! Jeff and Andre learned from their sex therapist friend about the 4, 4, 4 principle. It’s an idea that each person needs for hours of induvial time a week, and couples need 4 hours of time together every week. Away time invigorates us when we actually come back together to spend time with each other. It should of course be intentional time, not just watching Netflix together. Getting to Know Our Guest Find out some fun get-to-know-you things about Jeff and Andre! Things like which of their pet peeves are the strangest, if they had to eat the same meal for dinner every night for the rest of their life, what song they have to sing when it comes on the radio, their favorite TV shows growing up. Be sure you hear what it means to Jeff and Andre to run a business with purpose! Memorable Quotes 13:21 – “When you look at some of the historical leaders that we count as heroes, most of them had pretty rough family lives; Somebody took a hit because they pursued this heroic thing.” 17:46 – “That is a core issue that should be a marriage issue. I’ve never read in a marriage book that you should be in support of your partner’s purpose. That’s not been a topic brought up in any marriage book before. If I don’t value her purpose, I don’t value her.” 23:12 – “The reason why so many women take pride in their work is because they want to paint a picture for their daughters that is a new path forward. A lot of the men connected to this women in committed relationships want the same thing. They want their daughters to see a different image of what their mother is. ” 27:08 - “It’s important that kids see a bigger world view. Whatever you do, it’s important for kids to see that it’s outside of this immediate safe bubble of home, because there are hurting people, and there are bigger needs, and it’s a bigger world out there.” 40:08 – “If we change the world and lose our family, we lose.” About Jeff and Andre Shinabarger: Jeff Shinabarger is the co-author of "Love or Work: Is it possible to change the world, stay in love, and raise a family?" and founder of Plywood People, a non-profit in Atlanta leading a community of startups doing good.

HAPPY THANKSGIVING! From everyone at Stay Forth Designs we hope that even in the midst of these interesting times you have a blessed day with your those closest to you. On today's episode of the podcast Alan sits down with Jeff and Terra Mattson for a great conversation about warning signs leaders need to be aware of and pay attention to. Jeff and Terra recently spoke at our Healthy Leaders Summit.  About Jeff and Terra Living Wholehearted founders Jeff & Terra Mattson are passionate about living lives that reflect integrity, healing, and authenticity. They met in 1998 at Seattle Pacific University where they first began to hone their skills and passion for leadership and relationships under Psychologists and relationship experts Drs. Les and Leslie Parrott, Theologians Drs. Tim & Kerry Dearborn and Dr. Rick Steele, as well as attorney and change-agent, Dr. Skip Lee. Later influences have included CEO & Executive Director of the Charitable Murdock Trust Dr. Steve Moore, Bill Thralls and Bruce McNicol of Trueface Ministries, Dr. Michelle Watson-Canfield of the Abba Project, Dr. Ken Canfield of the National Center for Fathering, and their own Pastor and his wife, Bill & Kathy Towne. Together, Jeff & Terra have over 20 years of experience in the helping professions and leadership development. Jeff holds a master’s degree in Organizational Leadership from Gonzaga University in Spokane, Washington and has decades of experience as a leader in start-up companies, family businesses, and non-profit organizations including universities and ministry settings. Since 2011, he has worked with business and organizational leaders to develop their potential and solve the people-issues that keep them up at night!  He is master-level certified in the Core Values Index (CVI) and a certified facilitator of Drs. Les and Leslie Parrott’s SYMBIS program (Saving Your Marriage Before It Starts).  Some of his organizational development clients include TriMet, ASSIST International, Bridgewell Resources, Subway, Stoel Rives Law Firm, The Dentist Off Main, Door to Grace, and Rolling Hills Community Church. Terra holds a master’s degree in Marriage & Family Therapy from George Fox University in Portland, Oregon. She is a Licensed Marriage & Family Therapist and Licensed Professional Counselor and now works as an executive coach. For the last fifteen years, she has run a thriving private practice while presenting to women, couples, and leaders in various settings including the American Association of Christian Counselors World Conference (2009, 2011, 2017). She is the Clinical Director for Living Wholehearted Counseling and has served as an adjunct professor with George Fox University’s Graduate Counseling Department. She has previous experience in community mental health, human resources, entrepreneurship, and pastoral/church ministries. She is the author of Courageous: Being Daughter Rooted in Grace (David C. Cook, 2020) and the visionary for the Courageous Gathering, a virtual conference-on-the-go resourcing women for the issues of today.  Together, Jeff and Terra co-authored Shrinking the Integrity Gap: Between What Leaders Preach and Live (David C. Cook, 2020) and founded a global movement, Courageous Girls, an online resource to help moms navigate the needs of their daughters at every stage of their growing years. They are the co-hosts of the Living Wholehearted Podcast and run the Living Wholehearted Lodge and Retreat. They truly enjoy having to live what they preach as they teach, speak, write, and lead together.  The Mattson’s and the Living Wholehearted Team are a trusted resource for the community. Many people ask how counseling, leadership coaching, and organizational development all go together. It’s simple. Though we all try to compartmentalize our lives, we were never meant to live that way. Attempting to segregate our heart from our mind, or our work from our home, or our pain from our story, impacts all of our relationships, with ourselves, God, and others. Combining the disciplines of counseling, coaching, and organizational development makes for a well-rounded approach that is rarely offered. Their clinical team of counselors help those who are ready to embrace their pain and walk towards wholeness. Their executive coaches and organizational leadership team come alongside business and organizational leaders who seek to help their people thrive at work and life.  Often this means helping leaders unravel the complexities of relationships within their particular venues. Whether a family or a large organization, all are systems made up of the most valuable resources…people. Living Wholehearted was formed to help these systems thrive, and then influence for the greater good. Jeff & Terra currently live outside Portland, Oregon raising their two teen daughters. In their spare time, they love adventures in the great outdoors, including fly-fishing, camping, and outdoor movies. Jeff is a singer/songwriter and lover of all things college football (Go Ducks!). Terra enjoys painting with her youngest daughter or reading a book alongside with her oldest. She loves deep conversations alongside a gooey caramel latte and long walks on the beach (with or without Jeff). Some of their favorite authors and thinkers include Bob Dylan, Henri Nouwen, Dietrich Bonheoffer, the guys at Trueface Ministries (Bill, Bruce, & John), Curt Thompson, and of course, C.S. Lewis. Connect with Jeff and Terra Living Wholeharted Take your next right step Leadership Unboxed Right Side Up Journal Explore Coaching

This is Jeff. Jeff’s a friend. He’s also a curious person who likes to walk around New York in his free time observing the world around him. When we get together we talk. We talk about the hard stuff, the easy stuff, the sad stuff, and the funny stuff. No topic isn’t a topic. Which means all topics are a topic for us to discuss. I wasn’t sure what to expect from his VN but it ended up being about Russia. Not as straight up as you see it here but with added descriptions and little pokes at me and poignant observations of society at large. Simply put: basically calling me out on my bullshit and my ability to sidestep any question directly tossed at me.I took this as a challenge (thank you — I needed this) to answer a question many of you have been asking: what are you doing in Russia and what’s it like? My answer below. Music clips used in this episode:Fall In Love by Slum Village and Linden Tree by The Osipov Folk Orchestra.Movie clips used in this episode:Rocky. About Jeff. You can/should follow him on instagram @insta_gambler . Listen to his mixed tapes “Badlands”.Watch this video he filmed of me about absolutely nothing happening, and any other video we’ve ever filmed and/or created on YouTube. Finally, the best advice he’s ever given me when stuck in life is to go outside, commence walk, and begin taking photos until you get something. Even if that something ain’t v good, as long as you’ve seen the city with different eyes, you’ve already won.LISTEN TO THIS EPISODE ON APPLE PODCASTSAbout this podcast: I created this podcast because i needed to find a way to stay in touch with my friends, social media acquaintances, and life-coaching clients while i built a life for myself in Moscow, Russia. Yes, after 30 years in North America, I relocated back to the place that birthed me. The concept here is simple: send in a three-minute voice note with anything on your mind. A question. A thought. A song. A message. An observation. A complaint. Anything. It doesn’t even have to be three minutes. It can be a total of 10 seconds. There are no rules except that you relinquish control to your Voice Note once it’s been sent. After which, I dive into the depths of myself to come up with an adequate answer to whatever it is that you’ve said. Perhaps, this will evolve into a dialogue in which I’ll send back a question your way through my answer. Perhaps, i’ll ask you to never Voice Note me again (kidding).The point is to challenge ourselves to be daring enough to record, bold enough to send something and to let it go, and patient enough to see where it ends up in the process of creation. Like you, each episode will vary. There are no guarantees except for the guarantee that you’ve put something out there.

Authors on the Air host Pam Stack welcomes international best-selling author JEFF ABBOTT to the studio to discuss his latest thriller THE THREE BETHS. About Jeff:  Jeff Abbott is the New York Times bestselling, award-winning author of many mystery and suspense novels. He has been called “one of the best thriller writers in the business” (Washington Post). His novels have been called “compulsively readable” (Chicago Sun Times), “outstanding. . .genuinely moving” and “fresh, original… intricately woven” (Publishers Weekly), “nail-bitingly suspenseful and totally original” (Irish Independent), and “extremely compelling” (Associated Press). He is published in many languages and has been a bestseller in the US, the UK, Ireland, France, Germany, Australia, Portugal, and other countries. About THE THREE BETHS:  My mom would never leave me.  This has been Mariah Dunning's motto. Her compass. Her belief. So when she glimpses her mother--who's been missing for the past year--on the other side of a crowded food court, Mariah's conviction becomes stronger than ever. Or is she losing her mind? An unlikely coincidence? When Beth Dunning disappeared without a trace, suspicion for her murder-despite the lack of a body or any physical evidence-immediately fell upon Mariah's father. Until Mariah stumbles upon two other recent disappearances from Lakehaven. And all three women had the same name: Beth.  Or a sinister connection? Mariah would give anything to find out what happened to her mother, and clear her father's name. But the truth may be more devastating than she could have imagined...

On this week’s Because of Horses podcast, Elise talks with a guest panel about equine therapy — Founder of Equest Therapeutic Riding Susan Schwartz, Equest’s CEO Lili Kellogg, and Jeff Hensley, Director of Clinical and Veteran Services of Equest’s Hooves for Heroes program.   Equest is a nonprofit, therapeutic riding center in Dallas, Texas. For 37 years, Equest has helped people live fuller, richer lives by connecting them with horses. Historically, their focus has been on special needs populations — children and adults with physical, emotional or cognitive disabilities — but for the last six years, through the Hooves for Heroes program, they have extended their reach to veterans and military families, helping them transition back to civilian life.   As one of the first therapeutic riding programs in the US, Equest is renowned for its legacy of caring, in addition to its stellar clinical success. Episode 12's guest panel discusses how Equest began, the program's evolution,  the staff's day-to-day activities, and their personal observations and experiences. The work Susan, Lili, and Jeff perform some might describe as borderline miraculous:  giving comfort and peace to those with PTSD, depression, or severe anxiety; providing a place of belonging and hope to many who’ve been marginalized and viewed as disabled; sharing the freedom, power, and speed of riding for individuals with physical limitations. For the staff and volunteers at Equest and Hooves for Heroes, this is only a small glimpse of the incredible difference they’re making every single day in the lives of the people they serve.   Topic of Discussion: [2:08] Equest Founder Susan Schwartz discusses Equest's start. [7:00] Susan’s awareness of the "stars aligning" in creating Equest. [9:28] The amazing feedback from family members whose loved ones improved through therapeutic riding. [10:25] Susan’s touching experience with a mother whose child's shoes became dirty. [13:09] How the program is changing the lives of the volunteers and staff, as well as the participants. [14:00] Equest’s testimonials reveal the powerful nature of their program. [17:42] Lili describes the connection between the horse and participant, and its role in therapeutic riding. [22:09] How the first two riders inspired the program's original name, “Free to Ride.” [24:19] The nuanced benefits of riding horses and having horses in your life. [25:34] Lili’s touching story from another therapeutic riding program. [27:16] The common denominator among Equest’s riders. no matter their age, ethnicity, or challenge. [28:11] Jeff speaks about their veterans' program, Hooves for Heroes, and how it has changed his own life. [29:40] About Jeff’s service to the U.S. military and his transition back to civilian life. [31:50] How Jeff came to join Equest, became head of the veteran’s program, and how the experience aided his own healing. [35:33] How Hooves for Heroes has helped military family members and veterans. [39:12] The evolution of equine therapy and Susan's view of its future. [43:53] Jeff’s insight on the importance of sharing therapeutic riding with the world. [44:49] Susan touches on the history of therapeutic riding and why she believes the industry has changed so much since she got involved. [46:41] Lili’s views on the development of therapeutic riding. [48:34] Overall advice for people looking for a therapeutic riding programs near them. [50:55] The incredible facilities, horses, and volunteers at Equest.

This week on the show, Eric and Marie welcome Jeff and Denise Checker of the Demon Hunter Society and Pastor Frank Queen. We'll be discussing Ghosts, Hauntings and the Demonic along with some of the cases where Jeff, Denise and Frank have investigated in cases they believe were demonic in nature. Also joining us will be Shawn and Marianne Donley of Dark Shadow Ghost Tours and Panic'D for another edition of the Haunted Spotlight. About Jeff, Denise and the Demon Hunter Society: The Demon Hunter Society is: Jeff Checker, Director and Team lead. Jeff's wife Denise is Associate Team Lead. We also utilize the skills of our nephew Nathan Smith, and our friend Eric Huff, who are both Christian warriors as well. Jeff Checker has been a Christian all of his life. Jeff has studied Demonology, as well as the Bible for numerous years. He is currently working towards his Doctoral in Christian Counseling from The Institute of Christian Works. He and his wife Denise have both been given the gift of discernment of spirits from the Holy Spirit, enabling them to recognize the presence of demons. They have also been given the authority from God the Father to dispel such evil. The Word of God indicates such gifts will be given, especially in the end times, when Satan is seeking to devour us like a lion. The Demon Hunter Society uses both hardware and software used by secular "ghost hunting" teams (in order to be on a level plane with the secular community in regards to capturing evidence), coupled with spiritual gifts. We both can ascertain the presence of spirits, and then the team cleanses the home or persons of the residual effects. We only have the authority because of our faith in God and His Word. We alone cannot win the battle; we are mere vessels for Gods Work. Jeff and Denise have both had real-life experiences with fallen angels masquerading as "ghosts", and they are here to tell you "You show me a ghost, and I'll show you the devil!". (TM) Pastor Frank Queen is a ordained pastor who has served as a church leader and pastor at several churches across the Eastern and Midwestern United States. Currently he resides in upstate Michigan where he is the Pastor of a church. For more information on the Demon Hunter Society visit http://thedemonhuntersociety.webs.com.

On this episode of PIR Radio we have Jeffrey Kimball from NPRS on with us. About Jeff and NPRS: We are a Paranormal research group in the center of New Hampshire. We have worked and spent much of our time in paranormal research and understanding on how things in our everyday lifestyle can effect or be effected by them. Northern Paranormal staff are not new to the spirit world, we started trying to understand about the paranormal in the later part of 1998 when i had paranormal introductions of my own. And so began the journey to find others like myself with the interest in the paranormal. I formed the organization in 1999 with 5 members and it has just grown from there. I have not only formed this group for us, but for others in whom we try to help in the understanding of the paranormal. This is more then just curiosity.....this is a quest, a quest to see if there really are things out there trying to talk to us or asking for help to move on. We understand the doubters and the non-believers in the paranormal field but we are not just a group to help with seing or believing but also to disprove bumps in the night to be a settling house or pinging in the basement to be air in the pipes. We help everyone. There is always an answer........just where in the spectrum does it lie. With that said i decided that investigating was not enough, so i began my studies and became certified and well versed in much of the equipment used today such as EMF Detectors, Thermal Imaging Equipment, and the lighting of IR and Full Spectrum. Now with the knowledge comes the teaching. We hold workshops and seminars all over New England to help teach other people who have the drive and excitment we have on an investigation, to learn what we know in hopes they will teach people what THEY know. I deal in Parapsychology and am facinated in the spirtual world and hope i can help others in the field to. Please visit our website at www.pirradio.com.
