Managing the Slump A slump is a period where individuals or the team suddenly can't perform at their usual level. Confidence disappears, shots that always fall rim out, and frustration mounts. Acknowledge, Don't Panic: First, openly acknowledge the slump without blame or panic. Normalize it as a part of the game. Showing frustration as a coach will only make your players tighter. Shift Focus to Process: Stop focusing on the outcome (missed shots, losses). Instead, obsess over the process. Are you getting good shots? Is the ball movement crisp? Are you executing defensive assignments? Praise the process goals, even if the ball isn't going in. Simplify Everything: Don't install a complex new offense. Go back to basics. Run simple, high-percentage drills and plays that get players easy looks and build back their confidence. Sometimes, the best slump-buster is a simple layup or an uncontested jump shot in practice. Analyze, Don't Obsess: Use film to look for correctable patterns. Are players rushing shots? Is a specific defensive rotation being missed? Find one or two small, actionable things to fix, not ten. Break the Routine: Sometimes a slump is mental monotony. A radically different practice—like a "fun" day (dodgeball, contests) or even an unexpected day off—can be the mental reset the team needs. Losing streaks are different; they test the entire team's culture and your leadership. Your primary job is to keep the team together and focused on improvement. Maintain Your Poise: Your team takes its cues directly from you. If you are defeated, angry, or blame officials, your team will adopt that same negative energy. Project calm, objective confidence. Redefine "Winning": During a losing streak, the final score can't be your only measure of success. Set small, achievable "wins" for the next game: "We will win the rebound battle," "We will have fewer than 10 turnovers," or "We will hold their best player under 15 points." Celebrate achieving these small goals, regardless of the final score. Hold Everyone Accountable (Positively): This isn't the time to stop coaching. Maintain your standards for effort and execution in practice. However, frame your corrections around improvement ("Let's get this right") rather than past failures ("You keep messing this up"). Find the Positives: Scour the game film for something good. It might be one player's great hustle, a perfect box-out, or a well-executed play, even if it ended in a miss. Highlight these moments in practice to show that good things are still happening. Stay United: Losing breeds finger-pointing. Over-communicate the importance of "staying together." Encourage players to pick each other up. Your message must be: "We will get out of this, and the only way we do it is as a team." Leading Through Losing Learn more about your ad choices.

The Intensity is Real, But Your Power is Greater.Acknowledge the current intense environment (mentally, emotionally, globally).Reintroduce the core belief: When you are soul-centered, you are more powerful than anything.The problem: We absorb "heavier energies" without realizing it.The Core Practice: 5-to-10 Conscious Cycles.Break down the simple, powerful formula (5-10 breaths).Affirmation Focus: Dedicate each in-breath to calm and centering ("Breathing in, I calm my body, mind, and emotions.") and each out-breath to release ("Breathing out, I release all heavier energies and attachments...").The Command: Lock in the shielding and safety ("I am centered. I am safe. I am surrounded and infused with divine light and shielding. And SO IT IS.").Energetic Inventory & Regulation.Explain the concept: Continuously stay aware of what is yours and not yours—mentally and emotionally.This is not just for spiritual folks; this is nervous system regulation at its finest. When you release what isn't yours, your system calms down.The Cleanest Frequency: Nature.Why Nature is a non-negotiable step. It is the least contaminated, cleanest frequency on the planet right now.Practical call to action: Walk barefoot, sit by a tree, simply Breathe in the natural air. This simple act recenters your entire spirit.Conclusion: Keep Returning Here.Reiterate that Breath is the connect point, the clearing, and the recentering.Encouragement to practice daily, especially during moments of intensity.Wim Hof breathing techniques, which focus on deep, intentional breath cycles, can help regulate the autonomic nervous system, a key component in managing stress and emotional energy, which directly correlates with the "conscious in and out breaths" and "nervous system regulation" mentioned in your notes.

In this episode of Healthy Mind, Healthy Life, host Avik Chakraborty sits down with Rachel Lundberg, a movement educator, chronic illness survivor, and founder of Yoga Oak University. Rachel shares her transformative journey from ballet and modern dance to creating a global yoga education platform. Together, they explore how mindful movement, breathwork, and alignment-based yoga can regulate the nervous system, release emotional tension, and support holistic well-being. Whether you are new to yoga or a seasoned practitioner, Rachel offers practical insights into using movement as a tool for emotional, mental, and spiritual growth. Learn how simple breath practices and conscious movement can unlock deep healing and reconnect you with your authentic self. About the Guest:Rachel Lundberg is a movement educator and founder of Yoga Oak University. A chronic illness survivor and truth-seeker, Rachel combines anatomy, neuroscience, and spirituality in her alignment-based yoga specialist certification programs. She is dedicated to helping individuals and healthcare providers harness the power of mindful movement for emotional, mental, and spiritual well-being. Key Takeaways: Movement is more than physical exercise; it is a tool for emotional and spiritual processing. Breath regulates the nervous system: inhalation activates sympathetic (fight or flight) responses; exhalation engages parasympathetic (rest and reset) responses. Simple daily practices, like conscious breath and mindful movement, can down-regulate stress and anxiety. Awareness of the body's state—activated, frozen, or depressed—guides personalized practices for healing. Sensory engagement (touch, sound, sight) can help shift energy and increase presence in the moment. Regulation doesn't require advanced yoga; even one mindful movement or one conscious breath can initiate healing. The ABC technique (Acknowledge, Breathe, Connect) helps identify bodily sensations and guide nervous system regulation.

Tammy J. Bond shares her frustration after hearing a story from a middle manager dealing with a chaotic environment. The core issue: senior leaders are prioritizing being liked and showing misplaced "compassion" over actual leadership, accountability, and clear expectations. This episode is a fierce examination of how this dynamic demoralizes middle managers, promotes a culture of mediocrity, and actively destroys team trust and performance. Tammy challenges both senior leaders to put on the "boss hat" and middle managers to lead down and courageously speak up. Key Takeaways for Leaders (At All Levels) Chaos is Contagious, and so is Mediocrity: When leaders above the middle manager avoid difficult decisions (like performance termination), they model that mediocrity is acceptable, frustrating the rest of the high-performing team. Friendship is Not a Strategy: Prioritizing feeling liked or showing "compassion" in a performance issue is a destructive leadership failure. Compassion for hurt is necessary; compassion for unacceptable performance is enabling. The Cost of Circumvention: When a senior leader oversteps a middle manager (e.g., going directly to the employee or giving them assignments) it shows a break in trust, a lack of respect, and a disconnect that breaks down the entire organizational structure. The 90-Day Rule: Leaders must be slow to hire and quick to fire. Performance issues should be addressed and resolved (via performance plan or termination) well within the initial 90-day evaluation period. The Middle Manager's Survival Guide Middle managers are often stuck: managing up, communicating down, and balancing two sides with no support. Here's how to navigate the tension: Lead Down and Pull People Closer: When the top is failing, focus your energy on your team. Allow a three-minute "whine 101" for them to voice frustration. Acknowledge, "Heard, understood," and then ask, "And now what?" to shift to solution mode. Courageously Manage Up: Do not suffer in silence. Use curiosity to address boundary violations with your boss. Try framing your question like this: "I'm just curious, help me understand what's missing in my management style that's causing you to go around me directly to my staff? Here's what it feels like, and here's how it impacts the team." Know When to Escalate: If the unhealthy and destructive behavior of your superior continues, you have a right to go to HR to have a conversation about the negative impact on the team and your ability to lead. A word from Tammy: I unapologetically ask bold questions and challenge assumptions to help leaders rethink what they thought was true! If this episode resonates with you and you need help having this conversation with your boss, reshare this episode, tag me in your post, and I will reach out to discuss a role-play strategy.
Stephanie welcomes Elizabeth Urbanowitz to discuss how we can equip our children with a biblical understanding of sexuality and gender. Discover the tools you need to disciple your child with purpose and grace! Helping Your Kids Know God's Good Design is a thoughtful, timely, and practical resource that will coach you through some of the most foundational conversations you can have with your children. It's more crucial than ever to talk with our children about God's design for sexuality and gender. As our culture's understanding of human identity shifts, Christian parents, grandparents, and mentors are called to be the primary voices shaping the next generation's worldview on these sensitive topics. Ten years ago, few would have imagined discussing sexuality or gender identity with young children. However, today's culture often defines people by their desires and feelings, leading to confusion over what it means to be human. The Christian response is to provide clarity rooted in God's Word—especially around key biblical themes such as being made in God's image (Psalm 139) and understanding redemption through Christ. Elizabeth Urbanowitz emphasizes starting conversations on sexuality and gender with children as young as four or five years old. The earlier parents introduce these topics, the more their children see them as trustworthy “experts” (she calls this the “Founder's Effect”). Just as a child memorizes basic math facts before tackling algebra, simple biblical truths learned early become anchors for discerning truth from cultural messages later in life. Children encounter issues like sexual abuse, pornography, and gender confusion younger than ever. Even adults without children are likely to influence young people as teachers, mentors, or relatives. It's essential to have clear, simple language to explain: Bodies are valuable and designed by God. Private parts deserve protection and privacy. If children disclose uncomfortable experiences, adults should listen, seek understanding, and reinforce these truths with compassion. Elizabeth draws everything back to scripture. The Bible presents God as our Designer, and His design (for our bodies, marriage, sexuality) is the wise and loving blueprint for human flourishing. When addressing hard questions—like same-sex marriage, gender identity, or masturbation—parents are encouraged to reference what God has revealed, not just their opinions. To help children remember key truths, parents can teach simple catechism-like phrases. For example, “Marriage is one man and one woman becoming one flesh for life,” or “God designed us as male or female—God's design is good.” These become invaluable tools when children are confronted with cultural lies. A major point is that kindness doesn't mean agreement. Being compassionate means loving others and telling the truth (not just making them feel good). Children should be taught to respect and care for everyone, including those living differently, without affirming what's unbiblical. For parents of older children or teens, start with prayer, then listen to what they've already learned. Acknowledge any shortcomings, gently offer biblical truths, and focus on building a trusting, ongoing dialogue. God's Word is sufficient for every generation. Parents, family members, and the faith community play vital roles in helping kids navigate a confusing world. Start early, speak simply, root everything in scripture, and model truth with kindness and courage. Take time this week to consider what “building a biblical foundation” practically looks like for the children in your life. What is one conversation you can start, or one phrase you can teach, to prepare them for these challenging but crucial topics? MORE ABOUT “HELPING YOUR KIDS KNOW GOD'S GOOD DESIGN” Discipling Your Child One Conversation at a Time In today's pervasively secular culture, it's more essential than ever to guide your children toward a biblical worldview on all issues―including the complex topics of sexuality and gender. But as a parent, how do you have these discussions in an informed, age-appropriate, and Christ-centered way? This how-to handbook equips you to talk about sex, gender, and the Bible with children between the ages of 4 and 12 with confidence and nuance. Inside you'll find biblically grounded answers to some of Christian parents' most common questions, including When should I first have the sex talk with my child? How do I explain sexual sin to my child? How do I teach my child to love others without affirming another person's sin? How do I talk with my child about what the Bible teaches about same-sex relationships? How do I handle the fear that I'll have these conversations the wrong way? Discover the tools you need to disciple your child with purpose and grace! Helping Your Kids Know God's Good Design is a thoughtful, timely, and practical resource that will coach you through some of the most foundational conversations you can have with your children. MORE ABOUT ELIZABETH URBANOWITZ Elizabeth Urbanowicz is a follower of Jesus Christ who is passionate about equipping kids to understand the truth of the Christian worldview. She holds a B.S. from Gordon College in Elementary Education and Spanish, an M.S.Ed. from Northern Illinois University in Literacy Education, and an M.A. in Christian Apologetics from Biola University. Elizabeth began her professional career as an elementary teacher in a Christian school. Several years into her teaching experience, Elizabeth realized that despite being raised in Christian homes, attending a Christian school, and being active in church, her students thought more like the culture than like Christ. Elizabeth began searching for curricular materials that would equip her students to think critically, helping them discover that Christianity is the worldview that lines up with reality. After not finding any materials that met this need, she began creating a curriculum for her students. Elizabeth first taught Foundation Comparative Worldview Curriculum as an after-school class for third through fifth graders, and the results were incredible! Students were transformed from passive recipients of information to active evaluators of every message they receive. Parents and teachers alike noticed the impact these materials had on students' media consumption, academic achievement, and everyday habits. This transformation lasted beyond the elementary years and guided students' thinking in junior high and beyond. Elizabeth now works full-time on developing comparative worldview and apologetics resources for children. Her goal is to prepare the next generation to be lifelong critical thinkers and, most importantly, lifelong disciples of Jesus Christ. https://foundationworldview.com/about/meet-the-founder We invite you to check out the first episode of each of our series, and decide which one you will want to start with.

On this 299th episode of Take Flight Weekly, I want to recognize all of you who are toggling between your life and your business and navigating an industry that never slows down. Will it ever be easy? No. But here's what I know for certain: you've earned the right to want things and achieve things. You've put in the work, you've weathered the storms, and now it's time to claim what's yours: clarity, fulfillment, and a business that is predictable, sustainable, and enjoyable. Over the past year, I've watched many of you wrestle with uncertainty—new compensation models, big industry changes, rising costs, new pressures, heightened expectations. But beneath the stress is something else: proof. Proof that you belong here. Proof that you've earned the right to design a business that rewards your expertise, not your exhaustion. In this episode, I walk you through the hard truths of what you've overcome: Working for months in a 100% commission environment with no financial reward until closing Tending to your family and friends while negotiating deals with stressed clients Rebuilding your systems, protecting your compensation, and staying composed when everyone else is overly emotional Caring for clients at all hours while trying to nurture your own mental and physical health Resisting the constant pull to compare yourself to others You've developed a craft that looks effortless because you've mastered what few ever will. Your value isn't in the transaction—it's in your consistency, your resilience, and your ability to lead with calm during chaos. We have entered a new chapter in this business. The hobbyist era is ending, and that's good news for true professionals. The transactional model is fading. The relationship model is the future. Your clients don't just want service; they want stewardship. They want you. That's why the rest of this year and into 2026 is about right-sizing: simplifying what no longer serves you and doubling down on what does. It's about moving from wide and shallow to narrow and deep. You've earned the right to stop proving yourself and start refining yourself. Here's your challenge this week: Decide what you want next—financially, personally, and relationally. Ambition is not arrogance. Commit to one decision that honors your growth; something that makes your business work for you instead of against you. Acknowledge how far you've come. Write down five moments this year that prove you've earned the right to want things and achieve things. Own them. You don't need permission to want more. You've already earned that right through every late night, every interrupted dinner, and every risk you've taken. Stop apologizing for your ambition. The life and business you want won't happen by luck—it will happen because you finally decide you're worthy of it. Re-listen to this. Make the decision. Claim it. You! Have Earned! The Right! To Want Things! And Achieve Things!

How strong are your conversation skills? Whether you are stepping into a boardroom, attending a networking event, or connecting with coworkers over coffee, the way you show up in conversations matters. This episode of the Forward Thinking Podcast features FCCS SVP of Marketing and Communications Stephanie Barton and Tracy Hooper, founder of the Confidence Project and author of The NOW Hello. Their conversation is filled with practical tips, personal stories, and the small language shifts that make a big difference in how we connect with others. Episode Insights Include: Why do conversations feel so hard? Anxiety around conversations is common and natural. When we focus too much on ourselves, we are unable to focus on the other person. Conversations should not be about you, but about the other person. Shift into curiosity mode – what can you learn? How can you make them comfortable? Techniques to start a conversation Before you enter any room, strike a power pose. “I'm going to meet some interesting people today, and this is going to be fun.” Start with a compliment or a connection you have. State something that you know about them or their company. Compliment a person's character or trait rather than their looks. Use the magic words – what, how, and tell me more. The Golden Rule – treat everyone as if they are the most important thing in the room. Tips for Introverts If you're not energized by meeting people, prepare your mind in advance. Don't try to meet every person in the room, select just 2 or 3 to focus on. It will take energy to talk to people, so be kind to yourself in the process. If you are exhausted after an event, take a nap! Entering an existing conversation Wait for a slight pause in the conversation, then say, “May I join you?” Highlight what you heard them talking about. Toe-to-toe means no – a conversation between two people is not appropriate to enter. Read body language to determine if the conversation is open to others. Help! I forgot their name Don't run in the opposite direction. Preempt the awkward – offer your name first. Mention that they look familiar or that you do recognize them. If necessary, simply say, “Help me with your name”. Make introductions when welcoming others into your conversation. “Come join us, we were just talking about ___” and “Do you all know each other?” “I'll let you all introduce yourselves.” Politely exiting a conversation The graceful dismount is a 4-step art that must be practiced. 1- Say thank you for the conversation. 2- Acknowledge the stories they told. 3- Use a farewell phrase about the future. 4- Offer a goodbye gesture. First impressions and body language Body language is the unsung hero of successful conversations. Pull your shoulders down and away from your ears. Good posture speaks confidence for you before you open your mouth. Practice good grooming in your appearance. Dress for success – don't touch your hair or your face. Check your tone of voice and slow down your words. Say three sentences and a period. Then it's their turn to talk. Consider what you actually want to say, and eliminate the filler words.

What if the stress, chaos, and self-sabotage you keep bumping into are exactly what a hidden part of you wants? In this solo episode, I explore the powerful concept from the book, “Existential Kink,” that “having is a form of wanting” and reveal how your mind can secretly crave the very patterns that hold you back. Through a raw personal story and a three-step framework, you'll learn how to uncover hidden programs that create stress and sabotage in your golf game, business, and life, so you can finally break free and play with calm, confidence, and clarity. In this episode, you'll learn: What “having is a form of wanting” means for your golf game and life How early programming creates today's patterns of chaos, fear, and urgency A three-step method (Acknowledge, Accept, Act) to shift stubborn habits How curiosity + breath turn discomfort into data you can use Why identity fear keeps you “almost there” (breaking 80, scaling revenue) A 15-minute journal exercise to map stressors and rewrite beliefs If you've been “almost” breaking 80, “almost” scaling the business, or “almost” following up with hot leads, this will help you see why—and how to finally play free. Get your pencils ready and start listening. P.S. Curious to learn more about the results my clients are experiencing and what they say about working with me? Read more here.

Instagram: @thegolfhypnotherapist Key Takeaways: Shadow patterns persist because they once met a need; honor that before you edit it. Identity fear (“Who will I be if I break 80?”) often blocks the final 5%. Presence + breath are the fastest way to access and soften hidden programs. Acceptance is not approval—it's the on-ramp to real change. Curiosity beats judgment; treat tension in the body as useful feedback. Write the new rule: swap “almost” stories for precise, process-driven scripts. Fitness and daily reps (breath, journaling, hypnosis) cement the new identity. Key Quotes: “Having is a form of wanting—your patterns persist because some part of you benefits.” “You can't change code you refuse to read: acknowledge, accept, then act.” “Curiosity turns discomfort into data.” “Identity fear keeps golfers married to the ‘almost broke 80' story.” “Acceptance isn't surrender; it's traction.” “Breathe where it hurts—presence is the scalpel that removes old programs.” “If you want different results, you must believe different—and then do different.” Time Stamps: 00:00: The Desire Behind Self-Sabotage 02:45: Reflections on Personal Challenges 05:29: The Boxing Match Experience 11:11: Understanding Patterns of Chaos 16:44: The Subconscious Code of Our Lives 22:11: Acknowledgment and Acceptance for Change

Tired of telling people what to do, only for your words to fall on deaf ears? Do you feel like you're just "barking orders" without seeing any real, lasting behavioral change in your team or family? In this episode, I'll share my 3-step framework for "silent influence," a method grounded in Albert Bandura's Social Learning Theory, to help you inspire others with integrity. You'll learn why your actions are far more potent than your words and how to embody the change you wish to see, so you can become a truly effective and trusted leader. What you'll learn in this episode: The power of modeling behavior vs. giving verbal commands (and why children and teams do what you do, not what you say). The three simple steps for silent influence: Acknowledge, Choose Your Vehicle, and Reinforce. How to use storytelling as a potent "vehicle for impact" to give others permission to change. The science behind why a genuine compliment is as powerful as a financial reward for reinforcing behavior. This video is perfect for leaders, managers, entrepreneurs, and parents who want to create genuine, long-lasting behavioral change in their teams and families. Your next move:
Launch Your Box Podcast with Sarah Williams | Start, Launch, and Grow Your Subscription Box
Are you worried you'll launch your subscription box and no one will subscribe? You're not alone. This fear shows up for nearly every subscription box owner at some point, especially in the early days. In this Friday Fuel episode of the Launch Your Box Podcast, I'm sharing a mindset shift and some simple, strategic steps to help you move forward with clarity. Even if you're starting from zero. If fear or self-doubt has you feeling stuck, this is the pep talk you need. Instead of worrying about launch day numbers: 1 - Know that this fear is normal. The fear of “no subscribers” doesn't mean you're not cut out to be a subscription box owner. It means you care. Acknowledge the fear, but don't let it call the shots. 2 - Don't obsess over your launch date. Setting a date can be helpful, but it's not the most important thing. Focus on taking action and building momentum before the cart opens. 3 - Start building your waitlist now. Your waitlist is your best launch asset. It gives you an audience of warm leads who are interested, engaged, and ready to buy when the time comes. 4 - Understand that clarity comes from action. You don't need all the answers to get started. Just take the next right step. Then the next. That's how you build both confidence and progress. Your Friday Fuel Challenge You're not behind. You're just getting started. The best way to start? Take one small action this week to build your waitlist. Post a teaser, create a freebie, and talk about your box. Progress beats perfection. Every single time.

The gap between average salespeople and elite performers lies in process. While most reps chase quick wins and hope something sticks, top producers follow proven sales strategies that consistently deliver results. They've mastered the fundamentals that turn prospects into customers and customers into advocates. If you're ready to finish the year strong and blow past your quota, these five battle-tested sales strategies from previous podcasts will transform how you sell. 1. Deliver an Unforgettable Customer Experience by Mastering Your Emotions Your prospect doesn't care about your bad morning or the three deals that fell through yesterday. When you walk through the door or dial their number, you're the only conversation they're having with your company today. Elite salespeople know emotional consistency separates closers from pretenders. Think of it like a pro golfer staying calm and cruising forward regardless of what happened on the last hole. As Jeb Blount explains: How your customer feels about you is more predictive of outcome than any other variable. They buy you first, and then they buy your product. They buy you because they feel safe, heard, and confident you will deliver. This means you have to compartmentalize every interaction. Your fifth appointment of the day deserves the same intensity and professionalism as your first. When you show up desperate, prospects sense it immediately. When you rush through discovery, they feel undervalued. Jeb emphasizes this critical point: Buying a house, car, or service is deeply emotional for the customer. Before every interaction, take sixty seconds to reset. Acknowledge whatever is bothering you, mentally file it away, then walk in focused entirely on their world and their goals. 2. Commit to the Day One Follow-Up Mindset Ask yourself: How many times do you attempt to reach a prospect before quitting? If you answered three or four, you are leaving money on the table. Most reps quit after just three or four attempts, and sometimes without ever hearing a ‘No.' They just stop and let leads rot in the CRM instead of risking rejection. As Jessica Stokes reminds us, top producers understand this: While you are tracking your sixth or seventh outreach attempt, for the prospect, every touchpoint feels like day one. They are busy running their business—not waiting for your call. The problem is not just the number of attempts; it is the spacing. When you leave a voicemail and wait a month to "give them space," you lose momentum and start from scratch every time. The winning sales strategy is persistence with velocity. That means touching base every few days or weekly. When you maintain momentum, prospects remember you. The real failure is letting quality leads die because you are afraid to pick up the phone and risk hearing "No." 3. Turn Your Empathy Into a Weapon, Not a Weakness If you have ever hesitated before making a cold call because you thought, "I don't want to bother them," you are dealing with what Jeb Blount calls projection, and it is costing you deals. Projection happens when you assume prospects hate being interrupted as much as you do. You start deciding for them before you've even made the call. Successful salespeople recognize interruption is a professional necessity. Your job requires it; your income depends on it. Letting empathy paralyze your prospecting is dangerous. The internal conflict is real: You want to be an empathetic person, but you also have to be an interrupter. The mindset shift: Understand that projecting is the most dangerous thing in sales because you are deciding for your customer in advance what they want or need. Real empathy means showing up, asking sharp questions, and letting them tell you what they need. You cannot solve problems you never discover because you were too afraid to start the conversation. 4. Build a Velvet Rope Around Your Business What if your clients felt less like transactions and ...

Episode Notes: In this engaging episode of "In Touch with Terri," host Terri Ross delves into one of the most crucial yet often dreaded aspects of sales: Objection Handling. As we approach Q4, she seeks to empower medical providers with the tools to turn objections into opportunities and ultimately drive revenue growth. With Terri's extensive background in sales training, this episode is packed with actionable insights designed to transform how you approach and handle objections, ensuring that sales feel less like a daunting task and more like an opportunity for connection. Terri outlines a proven framework for mastering objection handling, emphasized by key points such as the importance of conveying value over price and understanding objections as signals rather than rejections. She explains that effective objection handling can significantly boost patient conversions, potentially increasing revenue by 30% to 64%. With real-world success stories from clients like Dr. Renee Burke and Skin Click, Terri showcases the power of implementing strategic objection handling techniques to enhance patient trust and increase sales success. By drawing on her own experiences and methodologies, Terri provides listeners with a detailed roadmap for refining their consultation processes and strengthening patient relationships. Key Takeaways: Objections Signal Opportunity: Objections are not rejections but signals that the full value hasn't been communicated. Value over Price: Convey the true value of services to overcome price objections, echoing the sentiment that "price is what you pay; value is what you get." Framework for Handling Objections: Terri introduces the "LAYER" model (Listen, Acknowledge, Explore, and Respond) for effectively addressing patient concerns. Training and Adaptation: Investing in consistent sales training and adapting to patients' emotional needs is key for medical practices to thrive. Data-Driven Approach: Practices should measure current conversion rates and aim for growth through refined sales techniques.
Te Pāti Māori has laid out its vision for the future, as part of what is supposed to be their "reset day". In the last hour, its leaders acknowledged they need to sort out some internal issues in order to ensure the current coalition is a one term government. It comes as the party's newest MP Oriini Kaipara gave her maiden speech in the House today, before the house was suspended by the Speaker following the waiata tautoko after the speech, because a wharekura student broke into a haka. Political reporter Lillian Hanly spoke to Lisa Owen.

Despite the inaction of the Democratic Party leadership, the consensus among the base of the Democratic Party is for the U.S. government to end its support of Israel's efforts to commit genocide in Palestine. Listen as Aaron and Damien discuss the piece “Democratic Leadership Still Hasn't Caught Up to the Party's Base on Gaza” by Stephen Zunes in In These Times, which explores and analyzes the growing calls for the end of U.S. support for Israel among Democratic voters in the face of the inaction and ineffectiveness of the Democratic Party leadership to force changes in the government's position, and what we learn and take away from this piece in our continued learning and unlearning work and fight for collective liberation.

Washington Acknowledges Captains Circumstantially Linked to the Arson Plot Professor Benjamin L. Carp, Professor of History at Brooklyn College and the CUNY Graduate Center | The Great New York Fire of 1776: A Lost Story of the American Revolution Three Continental captains were circumstantially linked to the arson: Amos Fellows (died in prison, possibly caught with incendiary materials), Abraham Van Dyck (accused of planning the fire by the British, later recommended for a captaincy by Washington), and Abraham Patten (spy who confessed on the gallows in 1777 to setting the fire). Following Patten's death, Washington eulogized him, and Congress awarded funds to his widow, suggesting recognition for his services. Washington never admitted ordering the fire but thought it beneficial, stating "Providence or some good honest fellow has done what we didn't think to do for ourselves."
When we have physical pain, it's difficult not to get frightened of doctors, or resentful of life itself or the body. When we're not acknowledged, or we believe someone's blaming us for our behavior, we suffer. Who are we without our stories, and also not falling into passivity or despair? Join a live self-inquiry session inspired by The Work of Byron Katie. We explore how uninvestigated “stories” create suffering—especially around doctors and bad news, physical pain & migraines, being judged or rejected, and needing others to be happy. Through the 4 Questions (“Is it true?” etc.) and gentle turnarounds, participants notice how fear-thoughts like “I don't want this,” “Something's wrong,” “They're rejecting me,” and “I need my partner to be happy” amplify stress—and how clarity returns when we question them. What you'll see: Fear of doctors and “they might find something wrong” “I don't want this pain” (migraines, resistance, fight mode) Courtroom moment: “We didn't cause this” and the sting of not being acknowledged People-pleasing, being “the good one,” and the fear of being seen as “bad” Turnarounds that soften shame, panic, and urgency—and restore compassion If you're curious about self-inquiry, anxiety relief, or how to meet pain and judgment without collapse, this session offers practical, real-world examples. 00:00 – Welcome & setup: noticing a stressful “story” 04:30 – Fear of doctors: “They may find something wrong” 12:40 – “I don't want this” (physical pain & migraine resistance) 22:10 – Courtroom story: “Acknowledge we didn't cause this” 33:20 – Rejection fear: “They don't accept me when I'm emotional” 43:05 – How we react when we believe it (fight, hide, obsess) 54:00 – Who would I be without the thought? 1:03:00 – Turnarounds: to self, other, and opposites 1:14:30 – Pain as messenger; being your own compassionate caregiver 1:22:00 – Closing reflections & next steps Grace Bell, facilitator of The Work, assists people to identify and question their stressful ways of looking at life. She offers Year of Inquiry, a vibrant membership community of inquirers Sept-June each year. Learn more about Year of Inquiry at https://workwithgrace.com/year-of-inquiry Grace also has a special love for those suffering from eating issues including disordered eating (disordered thinking) of all kinds--having suffered from this behavior and thought/feeling process herself and finding an unshakable peace within around eating, food, health and behaviors with eating. Grace works with all kinds of compulsions, habits and addictions as they are all the same thing: a pull to some behavior, substance or activity in order to help us with our stressful feelings and thoughts. As Byron Katie offers us (founder of The Work); when we believe what we think, it creates unnecessary suffering. When we question what we think, we feel lighter and less serious about what is. We even begin to laugh. We notice who we really are is peaceful already, a human being living life as best we can--learning, growing, loving. In the public sessions on this youtube channel, we have all-group inquiry sessions called First Friday Inquiry, we have interviews with practitioners of The Work, we have Eating Peace videos (on the eating peace playlist) and we have individual sessions in The Work by courageous people willing to be recorded for Peace Talk podcast and this channel. Thanks to everyone involved in what is shared here on this channel, as it is great service to others in the world who find their way here and who are curious about life without "believing" thought all the time. In all-group sessions and solo sessions, we begin with a judgment...and move into the four questions and turnarounds. Willingness to be real and honest with your thinking is the first powerful step in The Work. No one ever has to share when attending Friday Inquiry, and thank you when you do.

I came across a couple of great posts that really got me thinking about something we all do and the importance of realizing that there is a ton to learn from this event. What I found from Seek Wiser (@SeekWiser_) was a great reminder as to what failure is all about. Here it is: “F = Fall, A = Acknowledge, I = Investigate, L = Learn, U = Understand, R = Realign and the E = Evolve”. Some great reminders for us to always connect with, since we all have Failure as part of our everyday lives! The second thing that I remembered to share came up as I was recording this episode. It came from Psyche Wizard (@PsycheWizard) where this was posted for us to remember too: “Be loyal to your future, not your past.” Powerful words to connect with learning from failure in our lives. This was truthfully, a great start to my day that I needed for sure. Hope (as always) that this helps you too. Thanks for listening.

Your Parenting Mojo - Respectful, research-based parenting ideas to help kids thrive
Are you tired of feeling guilty every time you get angry as a parent? What if your anger actually contains valuable information about what needs to change in your family systems? Most parental anger management approaches treat all anger the same way - as a problem that requires control. But research shows there are actually two distinct types of parental anger, and understanding this difference changes everything about how you respond. Instead of suppressing your emotions or exploding at your kids, you can learn to use your anger constructively to create positive change for your family. In this episode, you'll discover why traditional anger control methods often backfire and learn a practical framework for responding to your anger in ways that honor both your emotional experience and your family's wellbeing. You'll understand when your anger is pointing to legitimate systemic problems versus when it's signaling you've hit your personal limits. Questions this episode will answer Why do I get so angry as a parent? Parental anger often emerges when core values around fairness, respect, or safety are violated, or when you're overwhelmed and basic needs aren't being met. What are the two types of anger parents experience? Values-Aligned Anger carries information about legitimate concerns and aims for positive change, while Reactive Anger emerges from overwhelm, triggers, or unmet basic needs. How can I control my anger with my child? The HEAR method (Halt, Empathize, Acknowledge, Respond) provides a framework for responding to anger constructively rather than suppressing or exploding. How does parental anger affect children? When parents model constructive anger responses, children learn that emotions can fuel positive change rather than destruction, and that their voices matter. How do I deal with parental anger issues? Understanding whether your anger is Values-Aligned (requiring systemic changes) or Reactive (requiring self-care and healing) determines the most effective response strategy. What are the symptoms of parental rage? Reactive anger typically comes suddenly with surprising intensity, seems disproportionate to triggers, and leaves you drained, while Values-Aligned anger builds gradually and energizes you toward solutions. What you'll learn in this episode Why emotional suppression techniques often backfire and create "emotional rebound" effectsHow to distinguish between Values-Aligned Anger (pointing to systemic problems) and Reactive Anger (signaling overwhelm or triggers)The HEAR method for responding to anger constructively while maintaining family connectionPractical strategies for addressing the mental load and inequitable parenting responsibilitiesHow to model healthy anger responses that teach children their emotions have valueWhen to focus on systemic changes versus personal healing and self-careWhy your anger about impossible parenting standards reflects legitimate concerns about family-unfriendly systemsHow to break the Anger-Guilt Cycle that keeps parents stuck in suppression and explosion patterns Ready to dig deeper into your triggered reactions? If you find yourself experiencing a lot of Reactive Anger - the kind that seems to come from past triggers or overwhelming stress - our Taming Your Triggers workshop can help. This 10-week program gives you tools for staying regulated and connected with your children even in challenging moments, including how to address the root causes of triggered reactions. When you understand and heal the experiences from your own childhood that keep showing up in your parenting today, you can respond to your children from a...

Read Online“Amen, amen, I say to you, you will see heaven opened and the angels of God ascending and descending on the Son of Man.” John 1:51In Heaven, we will see all things as God sees them. That full perspective will be beyond glorious. And among the many things that will amaze us from the perspective of Heaven is the incredibly powerful ways that the celestial beings participate in the bringing forth of the Kingdom of God. The Seraphim, Cherubim, Thrones, Dominions, Virtues, Powers, Principalities, Archangels and Guardian Angels all cooperate with God's grace in ways similar to how every member of an orchestra works together to produce a single piece of beautiful music. God is the conductor, but these celestial beings participate in the grand fulfillment of the will of God, acting as living instruments of His divine grace.Today's feast honors three of the great archangels mentioned in Scripture: Michael, Gabriel and Raphael. The Archangel Michael is described as a protector in the Old Testament Book of Daniel and as one who does battle with satan in the Books of Revelation and Jude. In Revelation, Michael casts satan out of Heaven along with the other fallen angels. The Archangel Gabriel is spoken of also in the Book of Daniel as one who interprets Daniel's vision. In the New Testament, he is identified as the one who appears to the high priest Zechariah while Zechariah is offering sacrifice in the temple. In that appearance, Gabriel revealed to Zechariah that his wife would have a child, even though she was advanced in years. Gabriel is perhaps best known as the one sent to the Blessed Virgin Mary to reveal to her that she will become the mother of the Savior of the World. Lastly, the Archangel Raphael is referred to in the Old Testament Book of Tobit and is said to have been sent to bring healing to Tobit's eyes.As we honor these three archangels, we can be certain that they are three of a countless number of other angelic beings who cooperate with God, bringing forth His grace and His will into our world. Try to imagine that profound truth. Some angelic beings build up the Kingdom of God by devoting their existence to the perpetual worship of God before His throne. The highest of these are the Seraphim. Other angelic beings build up the Kingdom by bringing forth God's grace and truth to us, intervening in our lives in accord with God's will. These are especially the guardian angels. The archangels, three of whom we honor today, especially have the task of communicating to us the most important messages and graces from God. Reflect, today, upon the glorious reality of the whole host of the celestial beings. Specifically call upon the mediation of these three celestial beings whose names we know, Michael, Gabriel and Raphael, as well as upon the mediation of our guardian angels and all others celestial beings. By doing this, we not only entrust ourselves to their loving care, but we also make an act of faith in God by expressing our belief that God has chosen to use these celestial beings to bring forth His Kingdom. By themselves, angels are powerless to act. But since they act only in unison with the will of God, their mediation is as powerful as the grace of God, since it is God Who works through them. Acknowledge them today, call upon their mediation and profess your faith in the glorious work that they do to build up God's Kingdom.Most glorious Archangels Michael, Gabriel and Raphael, please do come to my aid. I entrust myself, my family, our Church and the entire world to your loving mediation. Please bring forth God's grace into our lives, communicate God's Word and His holy Will, protect us from all harm and bring healing to those in need. Angels of God, pray for us.

The Rich Zeoli Show- Hour 2: 4:00pm- MSNBC correspondent Rosa Flores quickly dismissed FBI statements regarding the ICE shooter's motive—claiming it's still too early to tell despite anti-ICE engravings on the shooter's bullet casings. Flores went on to say: “A lot of these ICE agents have been masked, so it has been very divisive.” 4:40pm- Even The Atlantic is now acknowledging “left-wing terrorism is on the rise”—and the article was published PRIOR to today's attack on a Dallas, Texas ICE facility.
