Today, Neil shares four essential secrets that have contributed to his success as a superhost. He emphasises the importance of understanding and solving the three types of problems that guests face: physical, emotional, and cognitive. Neil also discusses how to create a welcoming environment that prioritises guest comfort, addresses emotional concerns, and simplifies the guest experience through clear communication. KEY TAKEAWAYS As Airbnb hosts, the ultimate goal is to create happiness for guests, which leads to positive reviews, repeat bookings, and referrals. Understanding that guests are looking for comfort and reassurance is crucial. Hosts should proactively identify and address potential physical, emotional, and cognitive problems that guests may encounter during their stay. This includes ensuring comfort, providing clear instructions, and creating a welcoming environment. Guests often arrive with emotional concerns about safety and comfort. By treating guests as friends and providing a warm welcome, hosts can help alleviate these worries and create a positive first impression. To reduce cognitive friction, hosts should make information easy to absorb. This can be achieved through clear signage, labeled areas, and even video instructions, which help guests navigate the property without confusion. Building loyalty through excellent guest experiences leads to long-term value. By solving problems and creating memorable stays, hosts can increase the likelihood of repeat guests and referrals, which can significantly boost bookings. BEST MOMENTS "What do you actually get paid for? The answer is for solving other people's problems." "Guests won't always remember what you said, but they will never forget how you made them feel." "When you stop seeing hosting as just renting a room, and instead, you start seeing it as solving physical, emotional, and cognitive problems, then everything changes." "Anticipate the problems before they're voiced and actively address them." "A guest with a need may not say, but their problem could ruin their stay."

Active Mixing - From Boring to Baller Episode Overview In this episode, Michael Curtis shares practical strategies for creating more engaging, dynamic worship mixes. Drawing from his background as a professional bass player and mixer, he explores how intentionality and specificity can transform "boring" mixes into creative, engaging experiences that better serve worship environments. Time Stamps & Key Points Introduction [00:48] Michael introduces the concept of "active mixing" versus boring mixing The challenge: Moving beyond "it sounds fine" to creating engaging, dynamic mixes Creativity as the antidote to boring mixing Creativity Through Structure [01:41] Biblical concept of creation: bringing order from formlessness The playground analogy: Children with fenced playgrounds use 90% of the space vs. 30% without fences "Sometimes what feels like a straight jacket is actually a Narnia closet" Leadership through specificity and making finer distinctions Strategies for Worship Pastors [05:52] Prescriptive leadership can be valuable when appropriate The progression from 10 Commandments (prescriptive) to Sermon on the Mount (descriptive) Matching leadership style to team maturity level Create "sit-down chords" - signals that create clear expectations Setting up rhythms and cues that guide the worship team Organize tracks by function, not just instrument: Percussion: Rhythm-driving elements Foundation: Bass and low-end elements Filler: Pads and ambient elements Leads: Melodic elements that guide congregation Gamify growth paths for volunteers Create progressive learning steps (like unlocking levels in a game) Apply "arbitrary limits" that help beginners master fundamentals before moving on Name and assign musical ownership Clarify who owns each musical element at any given time Consider adding a dedicated "music producer" position Strategies for Musicians [12:36] "Rhythm Randy needs a retirement party" Moving beyond mindlessly strumming the chord chart Playing a part rather than just playing the chart Use the whole playground within boundaries Finding creative ways to express within structure Create "alley-oop" moments Intentional handoffs between instruments Setting up moments for other musicians to shine Beware of "bedroom vacuums" Sounds created in isolation often take up too much sonic space Smaller sonic footprint needed in larger ensembles Interesting is greater than good Focus on creating compelling sounds, not just technically correct ones Hire both "Jekyll and Hyde" Balance between foundational players and texture specialists Strategies for Front of House Engineers [18:57] Be the guide - lead with your decisions Take charge of the mix and make intentional choices Use contrast effectively Create distinction between elements (can't have "close" without "far") Highlight different instruments in different sections Anticipate "oops" moments, don't just react Push faders before transitions, not after they happen Vary verse highlights Intentionally feature different instruments in different verses Keep congregation engaged through variety Develop common tonal language The "5-1-2" system for describing frequency ranges Creating shared vocabulary for sound issues Reference the real Compare your mix to professional recordings Combat ear fatigue by checking against references Mise en place - everything in its place Strategic console layout for efficient mixing Positioning faders for easy access during active mixing Conclusion [24:25] Start with clear direction (10 Commandments approach) then move to principles (Sermon on the Mount) Have the courage to be specific with your team Embrace structure as a pathway to creativity Key Quotes "Sometimes what feels like a straight jacket is actually a Narnia closet." "Move away from playing the chart to playing the part." "It is in that company's best interest to give you a patch that sounds great out of the box, but that's taking up a lot of real estate to make it sound good on its own." "Be the guide, take charge, lead your congregation with your decisions." "There cannot be close if there's not far, there cannot be wide if there isn't narrow." "Interesting is greater than or at least equal to good." Practical Applications For Worship Pastors: Organize tracks by function rather than instrument type Create clear growth paths for volunteers Be appropriately prescriptive with newer team members For Musicians: Consider your sonic footprint within the full band context Play intentional parts, not just the chord chart Create sounds that are interesting, not just technically correct For Sound Engineers: Use your left and right hands strategically on the console Intentionally highlight different instruments in different verses Reference professional mixes to maintain perspective Connect & Continue For more insights on active mixing and creative worship production, connect with Michael Curtis and the Church Front team.

You feel it, right? That tension thick enough to slice, the elephant in the room no one dares mention. But sooner or later, it has to be dealt with. Most people think resolving conflict demands complex processes. In reality, the solution usually boils down to simply hashing it out. Yet, when friction arises, we often overcomplicate things or avoid them altogether, escalating drama. It's time to step up and initiate tough conversations. Brace yourself. Some people will resist. Some simply lack the emotional tools to process these interactions. Others you'll never fully reconcile with, but we can NEVER afford to be escapists, personally or professionally. Even when doing the right thing doesn't guarantee success, clear communication and accountability are essential. Today's episode hits like the perfect song for the moment. Right on time, and rhythm on point. This is the sit-down talk, crucial and overdue, that we, and our society as a whole, needs to hear. Tune in as Brett dives into these key insights, breaking down how they relate directly to his experiences, and yours: Navigate uncomfortable first steps with proven scripts. Anticipate resistance and pivot when faced with avoidance. Utilize mediation and lateral tactics when standard approaches stall.

Sens head coach Travis Green speaks to the media ahead of travelling to Buffalo

From 03/18 Hour 3: The Sports Junkies anticipate that "Warfare" will crush in theaters.

The Eternal Weight of Glory 2 Corinthians 4:16-18 This morning, we are going to finish chapter 4 of 2 Corinthians. Verses 16-18. You can find that on page 1147. In the leadup to our verses this morning, we have been encouraged in our suffering. Even though we are like jars of clay, breakable and fragile, yet we have the surpassing treasure of the Gospel of Jesus within us. As we are given over to death… as our bodies deteriorate… as we suffer, yet, the life of Jesus is at work in us. And we are promised a resurrection hope through Christ. That was the promise of last week's verses. A resurrection hope through Jesus Christ. And that brings us to verse 16. Reading of 2 Corinthians 4:16-18 Prayer If you've been following the news in Montana, you'll know that there's a battle over suffering and death. Legislation has been proposed that would make it legal for someone with a terminal disease to end his or her life with the help of a physician. And it's very personal. Those who argue in favor tell stories of difficult suffering of loved ones. Those who argue against it tell stories of difficult suffering of loved ones. To some extent, I think we can each understand the motivation for such a thing. Physical suffering is difficult and it's likewise difficult to watch a loved one endure such a trial, especially when the diagnosis is grave. But life is precious… no matter our age or situation. God is the one who is to numbers our days. Not us. And it may be in those last days or moment that God draws someone to himself – like the thief on the cross next to Jesus. And not only that, but we have been learning in 2 Corinthians that suffering unto death is part of life. It's part of the fallen condition that we live in and the fallen nature that we have. And for the Christian, through our suffering we share in Christ's suffering and because of that, we also share in his comfort. We learned that back in chapter 1. You see, God often fulfills his purposes through suffering. And when we suffer affliction, he will strengthen and give us hope when we look to him. As we come now to verses 16-18… whey do is apply verse 14 to us. Verse 14 is about the resurrection. Since God raised the Lord Jesus, he will raise us and bring us into his presence. Look again at the end of verse 14. Paul writes to the Corinthian church that Jesus will bring “us with you into his presence.” You, believers in Corinth, will join us, Paul and those with him, in that resurrection. That is a great hope. And verses 16-18 then explain how to experience that resurrection hope in our lives… especially in our suffering. Even in despair. The question is, in our present suffering, how can we not lose heart? How can we live through the trials of this life with the hope of heaven? How do you actually do that? How do you actually have hope in suffering? Verses 16-18 tell us how. Look at 16. It begins with those encouraging words. “So, we do not lose heart!” And then Paul goes on to tell us why and how. By the way, this is the second time in this chapter that Paul has used the phrase “do not lose heart.” The first time was up in verse 2. Paul was talking about not losing heart in ministry and focus. Even though some will not respond, “do not lose heart.” God is at work. Remember that? Well, this time, the “do not lose heart” is about suffering and affliction. On the sermon notes page, you'll see the question, How do I not lose heart in my suffering? Three answers listed there: 1. Renew the Gospel hope of Christ in you 2. Compare your affliction to the weight of glory 3. Fix your eyes on the eternal not the temporal Those correlate with the verses, 16, 17, and 18 respectively. 1. Renew the Gospel hope of Christ in you So, again, number 1. Renew the Gospel hope of Christ in you Paul writes, “we do not lose heart. Though our outer self is wasting away, our inner self is being renewed day by day.” He's talking, first, about the impact of the fall, of sin and the curse on our bodies and minds. They are wasting away. Some of us feel it more than others. And Paul is comparing that to the new hearts that we have been given in Christ. Remember earlier in chapter 4 verse 6. “God… has shone in our hearts to give the light of the knowledge of the glory of God in the face of Jesus Christ.” That new heart is the treasure that we have in our jars of clay on the outside. So, our outer nature is wasting away. And our new nature, the new creation we have in Christ, is being renewed day by day. It's like one big decrescendo and another big crescendo happening at the same time. If you're musical that will make sense. A decrescendo goes from louder to softer. A crescendo goes from softer to louder. Our minds and bodies are decrescendo-ing. We are always fighting against the effects of the fall. It's not just aging but sickness and disease and accidents. It may, like Paul, include the scars of persecution – or it may include a “thorn in the flesh.”  In chapter 12, Paul describes a thorn in his flesh - some condition that he has endured his whole life. All of it is leading us down a decline in various ways. But there is also a crescendo for Christians. It says here that our “inner self is being renewed day by day.” That is talking about the hope of Christ in us. It's the new creation in us where God through his Holy Spirit has shone his light on us. We've been transformed. We've turned from our sin and shame to Christ for forgiveness and redemption. And as we walk through the trials of this life we are enabled to grow in the hope and grace of Christ. I'm being very intentional using that word “enabled.” We are enabled to be renewed day by day. God has enabled you through his Spirit to mine the depths of the riches of God in Christ. If you are a believer in him, he's given you the opportunity through his Spirit to be renewed day by day. If you are not a believer, he's offered that renewal and crescendo. However, when you are not immersing yourself in his Word. Or not repenting of sin and renewing your faith. Or when you are not weekly participating in worship. Or not communing with the God of the universe through prayer. When you are not engaged in those things, that renewal will not be happening. That lack of daily renewal will have lots of implications in your life. When it comes to suffering, your spiritual stagnation will result in discouragement, in despair, and in disappointment. You will wonder where God is. You will be asking why you are suffering. But, on the other hand, when you are renewing that Gospel hope in you (through all the ways I mentioned), God will strengthen you. Your life in Christ will crescendo. And that will help sustain you through whatever trials and afflictions and grief that you are enduring. You see, that is part of the answer of how not to lose hope in suffering. Engage in all the ways that God has given to be renewed in him. That hope and renewal sustained Paul, and it will help sustain you. So, answer 1: Renew the Gospel hope of Christ in you. 2. Compare your affliction to the weight of glory And now, answer number 2. How do we not lose heart in our suffering? We compare our affliction to the weight of glory. Verse 17. “For this light momentary affliction is preparing for us an eternal weight of glory beyond all comparison” By the way, this is my favorite verse in the whole book. God is saying that your affliction is “light”… meaning it doesn't weigh much… and it's “momentary” meaning it does last long. Does that make you mad? Because, God, it doesn't feel like my affliction is light and momentary. No, it weighs me down. I can't sleep. The pain doesn't go away. The fear sometimes overwhelms. It's heavy. It doesn't feel light, no, it feels like a ton of bricks. Actually, I brought a brick. This is just a regular clay brick. But we used to have a lead brick in our old house. It was actually there when we moved in… and I think we left it there. It was about this size. Now, this brick weighs like 3-4 pounds. But the lead brick was like 25 pounds. 5-6 times heavier. If we still had it, I would have brought it in. Now I want you to imagine a big pile of lead bricks – a pallet of bricks - maybe 500. That would be very very heavy. Thousands of pounds. In this verse 17 comparison, that pallet of lead bricks represents your suffering. You probably thought I was going to say that the pallet represented the eternal weight of glory. No, that is way beyond what I can describe. The key is in the phrase “beyond all comparison.” The greek phrase is literally “exceedingly exceeded.” Our afflictions are “exceedingly exceeded” by the eternal weight of glory. This verse is not minimizing the weight of our suffering. In fact, that same exact word was used back in chapter 1 verse 8. Paul and those with him had endured intense affliction in Asia. It says they were so “utterly burdened beyond their strength, that they despaired of life.” The same exact Greek word is in there. Their suffering was so “exceedingly exceeded” that they despaired of life itself. They even thought they had the sentence of death. God is not saying, here, that your suffering is not significant or heavy. Not at all! Rather, he's saying that the eternal weight of glory “exceedingly exceeds” the suffering that you are enduring here and now. There are 2 comparisons. First, something that is light and something that is heavy. And second, something that is momentary compared with something that is eternal. The weight of glory exceedingly exceeds the weight of our suffering. By the way, that word “glory” is shorthand for heaven. When you who are in Christ pass from this life, you will be with Christ in glory – you will be in his radience and his presence. In glory we will experience a fulness of joy and peace. We will share the honor of Christ as his redeemed and glorified people. Our worship will be beyond anything in this life. As Revelation 21 puts it, there will be no death, no dying, no pain, no sorrow, no mourning, no crying. There will be no night, there, because of the light of Christ. You see, even though the weight of our suffering on us is great…. it is no comparison to the weight of glory. Not because our suffering is small… but because glory will be so much greater. And think about the second comparison. It will last forever. It will be eternal. Even if your suffering lasts your entire life, it is momentary compared to the eternal weight of glory. Beloved in Christ, the weight of your suffering and trials is heavy. It may feel like a ton of lead bricks. And it may feel like it is never going to end – but it will end one day… and it is nothing compared to the eternal weight of glory beyond all comparison. So, the second answer to the question, how do I not lose heart in my suffering? Is this: Compare your affliction to the weight of glory. Don't minimize your suffering. But consider the glory of heaven to come. Get a perspective on what it will be like when God raises you with Christ to heaven. Your affliction will be nothing compared to the eternal weight of glory. Ok, before we get to the third answer, I want to take a tangent. I have been thinking about 2 little words in verse 17 all week. It's right there in the middle of 17. The words, “for us.”  Do you see them there? “This light momentary affliction is preparing for us an eternal weight of glory beyond all comparison.” I think I've been missing out on something about this my whole life. In my mind, I thought it was saying “preparing us.” You know, “preparing us for the eternal weight of glory.” In other words, I thought this verse was saying that through our suffering, God is preparing us for heaven where there will be no more suffering. That when we finally experience glory, we will be even more amazed because of the suffering we endured in this life. That's what I thought this verse was saying. And by the way, it is a true statement. Our suffering is preparing us for glory. However, the focus of verse 17 is a little different. The word “preparing” is not focused on “us.” We are not being prepared. Rather our suffering is preparing glory and we are the recipient of that preparation. Let me read it again for you, it says “this light momentary affliction is preparing for us an eternal weight of glory.” Somehow our suffering is participating in the preparation of heaven to come. That could mean a couple of different things. That could mean that when we give glory to God while we are suffering, God in Christ is even more glorified. We will experience more of his glory in heaven because of our suffering. It could also mean that because we share in the sufferings of Christ (chapter 1), we are therefore participating in God's preparation of glory in heaven. In other words, because we share in Jesus' suffering unto death and his resurrection, our suffering is in part preparing the glory that is to come for us. As you can tell, I am not fully sure of how Paul's affliction or our affliction is preparing the weight of glory for us. But nonetheless, what is clear is that God has a purpose and meaning for our suffering beyond what we can even understand. Again, that's just a brief side note. 3. Fix your eyes on the eternal not the temporal Back to the question. How do you not lose heart in your suffering? #1 - Renew the Gospel hope of Christ in you. Meditate on what Christ has done for you OR believe in what Chrit offers you… if you don't know him. Be in God's word and in worship and in prayer. Through those things, God will help you to not lose heart. That was answer #1. #2. Compare your affliction to the weight of glory. Consider the amazing eternal weight of glory. Glory infinitely exceeds the burden of our suffering now. And our suffering is, in fact, preparing heaven for us. And now, answer #3. Fix your eyes on the eternal not the temporal. That is verse 18. “look not to the things that are seen but to the things that are unseen. For the things that are seen are transient, but the things that are unseen are eternal.” Really, this is an extension of #2. We're not just to compare our suffering to that which is eternal, but we are to look up. We are to gaze at that which is promised. We're to look beyond the joys and sorrows of this life. We are to look heavenward. My favorite Psalms are the Psalms of ascent. Psalm 120 to 134. These Psalms were sung by God's people on their annual pilgrimage to Jerusalem. They are called Psalms of ascent because the people were ascending up to Jerusalem. It didn't mater if you were come from north, south, east, or west, you were ascending to mount Zion, to Jerusalem – you were going up. And as they ascended, they sang. We read Psalm 121 earlier. It begins, “I lift my eyes to the hills!” It was not an easy journey, but as they travelled, they looked up toward Jerusalem. They couldn't yet see Jerusalem, but they knew it was there. The Psalms of ascent are a metaphor for life for us. We are journeying through this life to the new Jerusalem. We are bound for the promised land. As we just sang. On Jordan's stormy banks I stand and cast a wishful eye to Cannan's fair and happy land where my possessions lie. I'm bound for the promised land. And the rest of the hymn, as we sang, is about the glory of heaven to come. It is so easy to be caught up in our immediate situation. That's because it's hard. It's hard to lift our head up beyond our pain and struggles and grief. It's easy to just focus on what we are going through and either feel that God doesn't care or even think that suffering in and of itself is virtuous. It's easy to be an Eeyore, isn't it? You know, Eeyore from Winne the Poo. “Woe is me.” Just to be sure, I'm not minimizing our suffering. I'm just cautioning against that first part of verse 18. “look not to the things which are seen… for they are transient.”  Besides not dwelling on our suffering, we should not hope in the things of this world. They will pass. Rather, there is something far greater. We should direct our attention to that which we cannot see, which is eternal. It is that great promise of life beyond this life. The Puritans used to use the phrase “Die before you die.” What they meant by it was, prepare yourself for death before you get to the point of death. Prepare your heart and mind now for future suffering unto death and the glory that is to come. Let me slightly change that. “Live in heaven now before you get to heaven.” I know, it doesn't have quite the same ring to it. But how about “glory in the glory to come.” Look to heaven. Anticipate your presence with Christ in eternity. Consider all the joys of glory. That is what verse 18 means “look to the things that are unseen… because the things that are unseen are eternal” Our physical eyes cannot see it. But we are given the vision and promise in God's word. Conclusion So how do we not lose heart in our suffering? Answer 1. We renew the Gospel hope of Christ in us. We press in, every day, to what Jesus has done for us and in his word and prayer. Answer 2. We compare our affliction to the weight of glory. Eternity in heaven exceedingly exceeds our suffering. And in fact, our affliction is preparing heaven for us. And answer 3. We fix our eyes, our gaze, on that which is eternal and not temporal. We cannot see heaven, but for those who know and believe in Jesus, you are promised to receive it. Suffering is not something that we should search out. But neither is suffering something that we can escape in this life. No, suffering is part of our fallen condition. But God uses our suffering for his glory and for our good AND for his purposes in eternity. So may God enlarge our vision for his purposes in suffering. May we not lose heart when we do suffer. But instead, may we be renewed in the Gospel of grace, may we consider the eternal weight of glory in heaven, and may we fix our eyes on that which God is preparing for us. Amen.

This Episode - Turning an Unlikely Business into a Multi-Million Dollar Success Meet Will Milliken, president of a fast-growing dog waste removal company and founder of the President of Swoop Scoop® and founder of Poop Scoop Millionaire™. What started as a small side hustle has become a booming business with multiple locations and a thriving online community for aspiring entrepreneurs. Will shares how he transitioned from digital marketing to home services, why the pet waste removal industry took off, and the key strategies that helped him scale. With a focus on exceptional service and customer care, Swoop Scoop® has grown into a leading company serving thousands of satisfied clients. We also cover the marketing strategies that work (and don't), building a standout brand, and the importance of fast customer response times. Plus, Will shares the surprising lessons he learned from a failed partnership with Pizza Hut and how he's preparing for national expansion. Key Takeaways: Standardized, flat-rate pricing works best: customers prefer knowing costs upfront. Fast response time is critical: answering inquiries quickly sets businesses apart in home services. Professional branding (uniforms, truck wraps, CRM systems) increases trust and allows for premium pricing. Scaling starts with predictable lead generation. The biggest bottleneck is acquiring customers consistently. Marketing experiments matter. Facebook ads, Google SEO, and wrapped trucks work best, while some partnerships (like pizza box ads) miss the mark. Standardized operations make scaling easier. A clear system for hiring, training, and customer acquisition makes franchising a real possibility. Track Customer Acquisition Cost (CAC) vs. Customer Lifetime Value (LTV): understanding these numbers earlier could have cut growth time in half. Anticipate bottlenecks as you scale: hiring, vehicle acquisition, and equipment logistics become challenges as the business grows. If you don't know how to acquire customers, your business will struggle. If you're not willing to start a poop scooping business, you're probably not going to start any business. Will's journey proves that even the most unexpected businesses can be wildly profitable with the right systems and mindset. Ready to think outside the box (or the yard)? This episode will change the way you look at service businesses.

Even if you technically can't use an electronic recording to create the appellate record, trial courts do provide them for us in your closing argument PowerPoint. Jeff shares his experience.And after spending most of a morning watching oral arguments waiting for his case, Jeff offers these tips:It took 20 minutes of argument time just for the panel to get its head around who was who in a case full of alphabet-soup entities. If you're spending a third of oral argument time in front of a confused panel, you're doing it wrong.Try this:If your case has lots of “ABC LLCs” and “ABC Holdings LLCs,” try using functional names instead—like “the management company,” and “the holding company,” "investor", "bank", "assignee," etc.Anticipate this confusion in your briefs. Include a clear chart in the brief that helps track the parties, preferably directly in the brief or as a supplemental exhibit.The goal is to reduce "friction." If you've used up all panel's brain synapses just to understand the players, you're going to have a poor time once you get to the merits.We also get to a couple cases, including a trap on appellate briefing extensions.Appellate Specialist Jeff Lewis' biography, LinkedIn profile, and Twitter feed.Appellate Specialist Tim Kowal's biography, LinkedIn profile, Twitter feed, and YouTube page.Sign up for Not To Be Published, Tim Kowal's weekly legal update, or view his blog of recent cases.Other items discussed in the episode:Are employees immune from paying discovery fees?A stipulated dismissal is appealable, but not a voluntary dismissal?

REVELATION 15 Anticipate the Glorious Christ (1-4) Anticipate the Glorious Conclusion (5-8)

Go to www.LearningLeader.com for full show notes The Learning Leader Show with Ryan Hawk Notes: “I sensed something was terribly wrong when I dialed into the conference line at 8:00 a.m. and heard an unfamiliar voice. “Hi, Mel ody, I'm Janine. I'm with an external HR firm. Unfortunately, this call is to let you know that your employment has been terminated, effective immediately.” Managing up is not kissing up. Managing up is strategically navigating relationships with those who have more positional power than you, namely your boss. It's a critical skill set for maneuvering through the complex web of power dynamics, conversations, and unspoken expectations that shape our daily work lives. The triple win – What is something you can do that is good for you, good for your boss, and good for the company? Focus on those issues and solving those problems, and good things will happen for you as you grow your career. Like Carly Fiorina. Run towards the fire. Solving those tough problems will help you, your boss, and your company Meeting with a CEO. Connect what you did with what matters. Adapt your communication to that. Have upward empathy. Put yourself in their shoes. What matters to them? Prior to the meeting, meet with their Chief of Staff. Anticipate objections and answer them before they are asked. Create a one-pager for your boss when they are doing your performance review. Highlight your wins. Remind them. Make it easy on them. Do what Lee Rivas told me to do. Every week, send an email with bullet points for all the things you did to help your boss and the company. For the one pagers - be proactive, start with wins, results and outcomes. it's not self-promoting; it's informing. Identify 1-3 key areas where you need their support. Help them become a trusted advisor or partner. Design your 1:1. Send them the topics to talk about so you can drive those discussions. Make their life easier. They have enough other things to worry about. Feedback can only happen after alignment, styles, ownership, boundaries... They go in order. Define your A B Cs Assumptions, Behaviors, Change you want to see The advancement conversation - Be open, and share what you want to do and how you can get there. My Dustyn Kim example and how I messed it up. The Money conversation - You don't get a raise just because time has passed. It has to be tied to results. Don't talk about the past and what you've done. Talk about what you can do to earn the company more. Don't do the "I deserve this" thing. Bosses hate that. Managing up is not kissing up. Managing up is strategically navigating relationships with those who have more positional power than you, namely your boss. It's a critical skill set for maneuvering through the complex web of power dynamics, conversations, and unspoken expectations that shape our daily work lives. Everything changes when you understand the art and science of influencing others while keeping your own emotions and insecurities in check.  “Managing up isn't really about making your boss's life easier. It's about taking control of your own work experience.” 10 Key Conversations: The Alignment Conversation How can I get in my boss's head to understand their needs, motivations, and goals?

Gaura Vani was given the gift of devotional song from birth, raised with the music of the temple, and taught to sing and play beautiful instruments and dance for love and for God. He shares, “I am one of a group of children called gurukulis or those raised in the village of the guru. Even as children, we were aware that though it felt like we were partying when we played music, we were in the physical presence of God himself, who danced with us.” Gaura Vani travels the world sharing the mystical experience of kirtan and leading devotional music retreats. Gaura Vani is a multidisciplinary artist fluent in music, film, and visual arts. He is most known for his Mantra Music performances. Gaura Vani's events are unifying and transporting—a mix of participatory rhythm and song, story and dance. He has travelled in Africa, the Americas, Europe, Asia, and Australia, performing both as a solo artist and with his sacred music ensembles “The Hanumen” and “Juggernauts.” Gaura Vani is also a co-founder of Chant4Change, a mantra-music festival held in Washington, D.C., on the steps of the Lincoln Memorial.

Podcast Notes Episode 455 A Flywheel for Getting Clients Hosts: Brian Miller, PCC and Chad Hall, MCC Date: March 6, 2025 In this episode, Brian and Chad revisit the concept of the flywheel, a powerful metaphor for building sustained business momentum. They explore how consistent, focused effort over time leads to breakthrough success, rather than short-term, haphazard strategies. Also discussed is how this concept applies to client acquisition and the importance of leading efforts toward meaningful conversations.   Key Highlights: 1. Understanding the Flywheel Concept Businesses that succeed don't rely on stop-and-start tactics; instead, they build momentum through consistent effort in one direction. Initial progress is slow, but once momentum builds, it becomes self-sustaining. The breakthrough moment isn't instant; it results from sustained work over time. 2. The Hedgehog vs. The Fox Approach The fox is always searching for the next quick win, jumping from strategy to strategy. The hedgehog focuses on a single, well-executed strategy over time. Many businesses struggle because they constantly change focus instead of committing to a long-term plan. 3. Applying the Flywheel to Client Acquisition Avoid random, inconsistent tactics: sporadic ads, scattered networking, or reactive branding changes. Instead, align efforts in a clear, consistent direction that builds over time. Overcoming resistance is key—sticking to the plan even when immediate results aren't visible. 4. The Importance of Conversations in Client Acquisition Strategies should ultimately lead to conversations—real interactions that can convert into business. Blogging, podcasting, LinkedIn posts, and networking all work if they facilitate meaningful dialogue. Success isn't always a direct path; it's about creating an ecosystem where conversations naturally happen. Example: A podcast may not directly lead to a client, but it builds credibility that sparks conversations through referrals and networking. Takeaways: Business Growth: It isn't about quick fixes; it's about long-term commitment to effective strategies. Anticipate the Outcome: The flywheel effect requires patience but leads to sustained success. Look Toward the Long-Term: Focus on activities that generate ongoing conversations, not just immediate wins.   Stay Connected: Website: coachapproachministries.org Email: info@coachapproachministries.org LinkedIn: http://www.linkedin.com/company/coach-approach-ministries Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/coach.approach.ministries Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/@coachapproachministries7538 Follow us on social media for updates and resources!
