Send us a textAuthor Shirley Russak Wachtel discusses her latest book, THE BAKER OF LOST MEMORIES, NYC, generational trauma, history, and much more in this compelling interview.“As a daughter of Holocaust survivors,” Wachtel explains, “I have heard many tales of loss, trauma, and even heroism. These stories inspire me not only in the way I live my life, but also in the topics I take on as a writer. In THE BAKER OF LOST MEMORIES, I turn to the story of a child of someone in my generation—the second generation—who carries her parents' trauma throughout her life. The experiences of our parents and the resounding effects on the next generation are what make this story compelling.SYNOPSIS: It can take a lifetime to turn painful memories of the past into hope for the future. Growing up in 1960s Brooklyn, Lena wants to be a baker just like her mother was back in Poland prior to World War II. But questions about those days, and about a sister Lena never even knew, are ignored with solemn silence. It's as if everything her parents left behind was a subject never to be broached.The one person in whom Lena can confide is her best friend, Pearl. When she suddenly disappears from Lena's life, Lena forges ahead: college, love and marriage with a wonderful man, the dream of owning a bakery becoming a reality, and the hope that someday Pearl will return to share in Lena's happiness―and to be there for her during the unexpected losses to come.Only when Lena discovers the depth of her parents' anguish, and a startling truth about her own past, can they rebuild a family and overcome the heart-wrenching memories that have torn them apart.To learn more about Shirley, or to purchase her book, please go to: https://www.shirleywachtel.com/Creator/Host: Tammy TakaishiAudio Engineer: Alex Repetti Visit the Self-Care Institute at https://www.selfcareinstitute.com/ Support the showVisit www.creativepeacemeal.com to leave a review, fan voicemail, and more!Insta @creative_peacemeal_podcastFB @creativepeacemealpodRedbubble CPPodcast.redbubble.comCreative Peacemeal READING list here Donate to AhHa!Broadway here!

He provides invaluable insights into the mechanisms of learning from these experiences, emphasizing the importance of vigilance and strategic foresight in mitigating potential pitfalls.

These moments serve as pivotal learning experiences that underscore the importance of adaptability and customer feedback in the entrepreneurial process.

Brad Welton of Sierra Vista, AZ emailed to ask about upcoming trips. initially. I told him about my Celtic Invasion of Galicia, but of course, that is moved back until 2026. We're going to Wexford, Ireland this summer. He followed up and wrote: "Ah Ha, thanks for the web address for the Celtic Invasions. I will check it out. Thanks Marc!  I still have a number of iPod's that I keep working, My favorite is the Shuffle. I use it to play your podcasts whilst out bicycling. The tunes really pump me up; especially needed for longer distance, more strenuous rides. Thank you for all of your hard work over the years. I have recently been listening to some of your early recordings and hear you rejoicing at reaching #60 or the like, and think, 'man, you wouldn't believe what you have accomplished by now'! You have been so prolific." John Thompson emailed: "Hi Marc, Best of luck with your upcoming surgery. And thanks again for another wonderful year of music on the podcast. Hope you and your family have a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year (with a quick recovery)." Elise of the band Charmas wrote: "Honestly, Marc, the times are changing. I'm watching it happen and not sure what to think going forward. The pandemic lockdown shattered peoples' long - standing traditions and now stepping right back into those shoes feels as unsatisfying as attending a previously - loved concert that now has only half attendance. Charmas' clientele for performing at Irish parties aged out and they simply aren't having parties anymore. St. Pat's is a dying holiday. Bagpiping is still going strong but the Highland Games events haven't rebounded to their former size and it's hard to get new generations excited from scratch. Bands like Tempest are still playing for their longtime followers. Bands like Altan have provided so much great instrumental music that there's enough supply in the world to last forever, without more being produced. If Celtic musicians want to get fed by playing music, they have to create something new and necessary for the next generations. I have no idea what that should be, but I think the best way to get peoples' attention is to create music that is truly innovative, relevant, and useful! It's a good challenge if we decide we are up for it :)"  

I am super thrilled to welcome back today's encore guest, Karl Sakas. If this is your first time meeting Karl, he was the brilliant guest expert back in Episode 79 of Sell With Authority, where we dug into his expertise on helping agencies work less and earn more. In that episode, Karl and I broke down three key pieces of the biz dev process — niche, refining and delegating. In this encore interview, we take it further. We peel back even more layers of biz dev and then connect it directly to operations. Wondering why you and your team should care about this conversation? Recently, Hannah, Erik, and I were working with a client here at Predictive, helping them map out what we call the HERO Offer — and then shaping all the sales language they'd use to tee it up in a conversation with a right-fit prospect. Everything was rolling. Great momentum.  And then — we hit resistance. So we tapped the brakes and asked, “Wait, what's happening here?” After some digging, we realized the HERO Offer wasn't fully aligned with how their team actually operated and delivered work. That moment was a huge Ah-Ha! Had we not paused and had that candid discussion, selling more would've just meant more chaos. So — this episode is about calming the chaos in your agency. Karl breaks down the root causes of chaos inside an agency as well as how to fix it — so you can make it easier to deliver the services your right-fit clients need — and easier to sell more of what you do. What you will learn in this episode: How to identify and define chaos in your agency The root causes of chaos Why the three A's of communication are pivotal for organizational success The importance of syncing your biz dev processes with operations A framework for making delegation effective Strategies to handle leadership challenges and drive profitability Advanced retrospectives for vision-setting and strategic growth Resources: Website: https://sakasandcompany.com/ LinkedIn Personal: https://www.linkedin.com/in/karlsakas/ LinkedIn Business: https://www.linkedin.com/company/sakas-&-company/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/SakasAndCompany/ Twitter: https://twitter.com/KarlSakas Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/SakasandCompanyTeam/ Calm the Chaos: 10 Ways to Run a Better Agency: https://sakasandcompany.com/lp/calm-the-chaos-book/ Steps in the Sales Process, with Karl Sakas

Year C – 6th Sunday after Epiphany   Grace and peace to you from God, our Creator, and from our savior, Jesus Christ, who came to bring good news to the poor. Amen. *** This one always used to make me squirm a bit… you know? No matter how much I shifted in my seat… I could not escape its conviction. We are still getting to know each other, but you have probably figured out that I love to laugh… And, of course, I like to be comfortable… and yes, I hope to maintain my good reputation. But when I read this… it's like Jesus is standing there in front of me… shaking his head and looking disappointed. I don't like that. But I know I'm not alone. We all like our comforts, and we all prefer financial security and a positive reputation. So why does Jesus say… woe to us... woe to us who are rich… woe to us who are filled… woe to us who are laughing and well thought of. Woe to us… who put our trust… our faith… in our earthly resources… *** I want to take a little detour and tell you about a time in my life when my faith just… exploded… my spiritual AH-HA moment! I've been a Lutheran all my life. My parents brought me to church every Sunday when I was little, I was baptized and confirmed in the Lutheran church. There were some years in college and as a young adult that I didn't attend regularly… but church was my habit, and I valued the community that was available to me there. But when it came to my faith… well… I thought I had faith, but looking back, I don't think I fully understood it… I believed in God, but I didn't truly understand what it meant to be encountered by the living Christ… until about 12 years ago. That was when our youngest daughter was 2 years old, and I was home alone with her when she had a seizure. By the way… she is aware that I'm telling this story. I didn't fully understand what was happening, and I was terrified… I didn't know how to help her. I called my parents, and I called 911 We ended up at the hospital, where the seizures continued… and she was eventually diagnosed with epilepsy, but they couldn't figure out why she had it. So for the next several months, we were in and out of the hospital… tests and specialist visits and all sorts of things were happening. And the medical bills were just… soaring… we had insurance, but it didn't matter… the amount of the debt became comical for us… Bill was the primary earner in our family… working as a graphic designer for a tiny, struggling, family-run graphic design firm… and I worked for the church as the bookkeeper and the youth minister. We were not wealthy, but prior to this event, we were at least keeping our heads above water. And then… a few months into Kara's medical adventures, Bill was laid off… on the day after Christmas. Suddenly, we were in deep poverty. The kind where you legitimately do not know where your next meal is coming from. It was very scary. The benefit, however, of being that deep in poverty is that Kara qualified for subsidized health insurance for children, and the amount we owed stopped ballooning. And… at least at that time, there were still social safety nets that gave us some breathing room on our mortgage, so we didn't lose our house. And also, tending to Kara's medical needs became a time-consuming responsibility… and since Bill wasn't working, he was home and was able to give the extra time needed, and work with the doctors to get her stabilized. And as for our next meal… well… our church community showed up in huge ways. They brought casseroles by on hospital days… groceries would appear on our doorstep, and Meijer gift cards showed up in the mail. There was an abundance. They checked in on us… they held us… they prayed with us and for us. They surrounded us with so much love and support, that even though we felt we were free-falling, we never hit bottom. And every time I looked at them… they absolutely shined with Christ's light… and I finally understood… this is how Christ meets us in our most difficult moments… This is how Christ ministers to us…loves us… holds us… surrounds us with peace. I didn't recognize Christ in my community before because I was too busy with all my stuff… my hands were too full of my own earthly treasure… I was too used to being one of the helpers… I had no idea what it meant to be the one in need. Only once my hands were empty did I become ready to receive the fullness of God's blessing… and only through God's grace could I humble myself enough to receive it. In receiving this gift of grace, my awareness opened up, and I finally got it… that all the earthly treasure we had before, and all we have now… was always, and will always be, a gift given to us, meant to be shared… And so it is with joy that I endeavor to bring Christ's light to others, just as others brought it to us. *** I had to learn this lesson of seeing Jesus the hard way… maybe you don't have to – maybe you're not as hard-headed as me… but I am forever grateful that Jesus met me where I was and showed me grace. What else could I possibly do after that… but follow him? That's what Jesus does… he meets us exactly where we are… to call us into discipleship. And if we miss the cue… he'll try again. Just like in our gospel text, Jesus met the people on the plain... all those people, he met them on a level place… no one higher or lower than the others. He met the very Jewish people from Jerusalem and Judea… the very Gentile people from Tyre and Sidon… disciples… followers of Jesus… those seeking healing… and all the different people in between. He meets them all… on a level place… and he heals them all. But to his disciples… to those who are following him in his mission… he explains that the kindom of God belongs to those who show up empty-handed. Blessed are you who are poor… hungry… Blessed are you who are weeping Jesus turns their understanding of the world… upside down… just like he did for me. He is… re-orienting their priorities, and not all are going to accept this new world order… But… he still healed them.... he healed them all…  Because he still loves them. Because Christ is still Christ… and the invitation is always there to open our hearts and turn our minds to God's ways… to open our hands to receive the goodness of God. But his mission is plainly stated… Jesus came to bring good news to the poor. *** That time in our life with Kara and experiencing poverty… it re-oriented our priorities and opened our eyes to see Christ all around us. In time, Kara's epilepsy stabilized, and she's doing great… and Bill found a new and better job. We're doing ok…           …and I don't think Jesus is disappointed about that. Because, like I said, our priorities are different… we now consider that what we have is a gift from God, and gifts are meant to be shared. And, we understand now how much we are all connected, and how much we need each other. We understand that it is not ok for us to be satisfied in our wealth if our neighbor is starving. …what good is our freedom and privilege if our neighbor is held captive and oppressed. The blessings and woes Jesus proclaims are not two separate ideas… Jesus is not saying that God is only with the poor. God is with all the people… always… and Jesus is calling our awareness to our connection to all of them, but most especially… to those who are most in need. Those who are deeply in need or despairing are uniquely positioned to recognize that Jesus blesses them and offers encouragement… and ministers to them through others. And when we are so full of our own treasure that we have forgotten where it truly came from, Jesus brings words of challenge to remind us that we are connected and bound to all those in our community… and throughout Creation. These blessings and woes are a call into discipleship… they call us back into the way of Christ, and into a more generous, connected way of life. After all, we are… one body in Christ. And so it is with joy and delight that we care for each other and minister to each other… sharing our gifts as we are able and shining Christ's light into the world… And trusting that when we come before God with empty hands, God will fill them with love and grace and blessing. Amen.

Send us a textAlongside Boone, John Seeley (bass), Alex Wells (guitar), and Dale Myers (drums), these tight-knit guys stay connected to their homegrown roots having been around traditional instruments from a young age in piano, fiddle, and guitar instilling in them an appreciation of country-rock, bluegrass, blues, soul, and folk music. The band blends roots, blues, classic rock, soul, and, of course, Southern rock and has created an original sound reminiscent of some of the great blues-rock/Southern rock bands like the Allman Brothers, Lynyrd Skynyrd, ZZ Top and Wet Willie. They also draw inspiration from some of the all-time blues/soul greats like Muddy Waters, Leadbelly and various artists from back in the classic heyday of Motown Records.OTIS is new musical blood for a new day with heavy, melodic blues-rock riffs, soaring guitar work, a pounding rhythm section, and raw, soulful vocals from Mr. Froggett.The band embraces Southern rock's hallowed past while charting their own future.  With some of the legendary Southern rock bands winding it down or no longer in existence, OTIS is a proud, new torchbearer of the Southern rock/blues-rock heritage.The band's debut album, 2014's Tough Times:  A Tribute to John Brim, is a raw, groove-oriented, blues drenched masterpiece that got rave reviews and was a blueprint for things to come for the band.The blistering Eyes of the Sun was released in 2018 on Cleopatra Records and more than lived up to the promise of the band's debut album.  Executive produced by Grammy-winning producer Paul Nelson, who earned his stripes by playing and performing with Johnny Winter and helping Johnny win a Grammy for his highly acclaimed album, Step Back, the album solidified the band's influences into a boiling stew of rootsy, kickass, take-no-prisoners, blues-rock goodness kicked up with a bit of soul and funk spiciness.  Good musical eats to say the least.And now comes Last Fool in the Line, which is a precursor to a full album that will be released sometime hopefully sooner than later (good things take time!)  To learn more about the band, connect at https://theotisband.com/ Visit the Self-Care Institute at https://www.selfcareinstitute.com/ Support the showVisit www.creativepeacemeal.com to leave a review, fan voicemail, and more!Insta @creative_peacemeal_podcastFB @creativepeacemealpodBonfire https://www.bonfire.com/store/creative-peacemeal/Redbubble CPPodcast.redbubble.comCreative Peacemeal READING list here Donate to AhHa!Broadway here!

Send us a textAward-winning filmmaker Josh Mendoza (What Still Remains) turns his attention to fiction with his sci-fi thriller, Shadow of the Eternal Watcher (Jan. 28, Inkshares, trade paper), a genre-bending debut novel in which alternate realities and time travel blend together seamlessly in a thrilling tale of government corruption and personal redemption.In Shadow of the Eternal Watcher, Private detective Duster Raines has demons. Some visit him in his dreams, reminding him of the choices he made in combat to survive. Others visit him while he's awake, demanding he pay penance for those sins. But lately, he's started seeing an alternate version of reality where he leads a life of importance, full of wealth and power. Visions so vivid, they seem more real than the life he lives as a private investigator, scrounging the gutters of Los Angeles for an easy buck. It's enough to drive anyone insane.Pulled into a missing persons case he never wanted, Raines finds himself framed and hunted by the government. But as he searches for answers to clear his name, he discovers a truth he never could have imagined: he possesses the ability to bend spacetime to accomplish incredible feats. With these powers, maybe he's got a shot at the life he deserves. There's only one problem standing in his way: another Duster Raines.

Alliestrasza joins us on today's episode, bringing her extensive experience as a prominent streamer and influencer in the trading card game space. Best known for her long-running success as a Hearthstone content creator, Allie carved out a career in streaming that spanned nearly a decade. Recently, she has expanded her focus to game development, launching the Discord-based RPG Play Alchemy, and is also actively involved in promoting Web3 games like Parallel.In this episode, Allie shares her journey from discovering card games during her final semester of college to becoming one of the most recognizable faces in the TCG streaming world. We discuss what it takes for an influencer grow a community, the discipline required to succeed as a full-time content creator, and the lessons she's learned in handling criticism as a public figure. Allie's take on both traditional and Web3 gaming shows how passion, hard work, and adaptability can really pay off. Whether you're interested in streaming, game design, or building communities around shared interests, Allie's experiences lessons that can be applied to anyone navigating a creative industry.Ah-ha! Justin's Takeaways* Keys to Community Growth: One of the biggest insights from Allie's experience is how personal involvement fuels community growth. Whether it was through creating fun community events or simply building relationships with fans, she demonstrated the power of caring about your community. This reinforced something I've seen time and time again—when developers or creators become part of the experience as personalities, it transforms the relationship with the audience.* How to Deal with Criticism: Allie's journey to becoming a streamer wasn't without obstacles, but what stood out was how she handled feedback—both the good and the bad. When you have a defensive response to criticism, it's often a sign of insecurity. Allie's ability to reflect and grow through early struggles mirrors a lesson I've written about before. (Check out my article on this here). Criticism, when approached with the right mindset, is one of the most powerful tools for personal and professional growth.* Work Hard Every Day to Achieve Your Goals: Allie earned success by treating her passion like a full-time job. I loved the story of her PowerPoint presentation to her parents, laying out her streaming career as a structured experiment. From day one, she approached streaming with a full-time mentality, putting in the hours to make her dream a reality. This is a huge takeaway for anyone pursuing creative goals. Treating passion projects with the same discipline as a “traditional” job dramatically improves the odds of success, especially when combined with the previous to Ah-Ha bullets.

She drives a beat up pickup truck, and some opine she's a little bit of a badass.Studying under Kurt Vonnegut in the eighties and David Foster Wallace in the nineties, made her want to never be a writer – instead be a person who surfs, climbs, and looks cool on a motorcycle.
