Send us a textEver found yourself mixing up avoidant and dependent personality disorders? You're not alone. This episode delivers a crystal-clear framework to distinguish between these commonly confused diagnoses—essential knowledge for passing your licensing exam.Dr. Linton Hutchinson cuts through the complexity to reveal the golden difference: motivation. While both disorders share features like interpersonal difficulties, low self-esteem, and comorbidity with anxiety and depression, they stem from fundamentally different fears. Avoidant personality disorder (APD) is driven by fear of criticism and rejection—these clients believe they're "not good enough" and withdraw to protect themselves. Dependent personality disorder (DPD), however, is fueled by fear of abandonment and self-doubt—these clients cling to relationships because they believe they "can't handle life alone."Through compelling case studies of Sarah and Mark, Dr. Hutchinson demonstrates how these patterns play out in real life. When relationships end, APD clients retreat further into isolation while DPD clients immediately seek replacements. Treatment approaches differ significantly too: APD therapy focuses on gradual exposure and challenging negative self-beliefs, while DPD treatment emphasizes building self-efficacy and independence. For your exam, remember to identify the core motivation—is the client avoiding potential hurt or seeking someone to depend on?Whether you're preparing for licensing exams or simply want to sharpen your diagnostic skills, this episode provides the clarity you need.

Austin Police Chief Lisa Davis is not pleased after a warning for residents to “shelter in place” was lifted prematurely early Wednesday, while police were still looking for a gunman who shot a police officer and a civilian in Zilker Park. Davis said she is looking into what went wrong, as the lifted order prompted Austin Independent School District to start school on time, and parents were carting their kids to school while the suspect remained at-large. On today's Friday News Roundup, host Nikki DaVaughn is joined by executive producer Eva Ruth Moravec and Hey Austin newsletter editor Kelsey Bradshaw to unpack the events of the shooting and discuss APD's response. Plus, the team gets into the recent influx of immigration agents in Austin, and shares their picks for what Lady Gaga should do while she's here for her March 2026 performances at the Moody Center.

Fournie par des États donateurs ou des institutions multilatérales, l'aide publique au développement (APD) constitue un levier essentiel pour soutenir les pays africains dans leurs efforts de croissance économique et de réduction de la pauvreté. En Afrique comme ailleurs, l'APD contribue notamment au financement d'infrastructures, à l'amélioration des systèmes de santé et d'éducation, à faire face aux défis climatiques, à la sécurité alimentaire ou encore à la gouvernance. Cependant, malgré son importance, cette aide suscite de nombreux débats sur son efficacité. L'APD serait-elle un poison lent qui étouffe toute initiative locale ou au contraire un soutien vital qu'il faut réinventer ? Avec la participation de : Marie-Yemta Moussanang, consultante indépendante, enseignante à Sciences Po et réalisatrice du podcast Afrotropiques. Sandra Kassab, directrice du département Afrique de l'Agence française de développement (AFD).

We've been liberating owners from chaos for a little over 10 years now at the time of this recording. When you look back at the history or sort of the anthology of what we've seen built in these tools in the Business On Purpose Operating System, we've realized that one of the core tools is something that we call the Master Process Roadmap. If you look at it, there's a core question that many owners ask, and that is, “What happens to the business if something happens to me?” Well, if you've got your Master Process Roadmap in place, then you've got something that the business can continue to operate on long after you're doing something else. And that's not necessarily the goal—but if something does happen, then you've got things in place. Hey, it's Scott Beebe with Business On Purpose. Super excited to walk you through this core tool in the BOP methodology and the Business On Purpose Operating System. You can go check us out at businessonpurpose.com. So how do we streamline the operations to boost efficiency, increase employee satisfaction, and also give us confidence in how the business is going to operate? I want to tell you a story about some dear friends of ours—clients of ours as well—American Paving Design. They offer an excellent example of how to go after process clarity through their commitment to the Master Process Roadmap. Having this single-page document—and when I say a single-page document, I'm talking about an electronic version, of course—is paramount for successfully organizing your business. It holds all of the processes required for delivering your product or your service, but all on one sheet of paper. APD's approach involved a comprehensive brain dump exercise. We sat down and categorized the processes into the four core systems: marketing, sales, operations, and administration. That initial step allowed them to identify all their procedural names. They didn't dive into how each individual process works—they just named the processes. And even in that, it was sort of a cathartic experience to get these things out of their head. They felt good just seeing them on a document. Over the course of a couple of years, they began to systematically walk and document 300 processes, creating a very robust operational framework. What's particularly noteworthy about American Paving Design's approach is its use of video documentation. By leveraging screen capture technology or even just an iPhone, they've created visual guides for a wide range of tasks. This method is especially effective because it allows for clear, step-by-step demonstrations that might be difficult to explain if they were just written down. It catches some of the nuance. The benefits of such extensive documentation are significant. Team members—whether out in the field or in the office—can easily access these guides or process documents whenever they need to. It's a self-service methodology that reduces the need for constant questions and interruptions. For instance, instead of asking Nicole how to run payroll every time, an employee can just watch the relevant video guide. And Tim, the owner, has confidence that it's being done right. The system saves time and empowers employees. To me, that's one of the biggest features of this—the ability to empower someone else. Delegation is an incredible opportunity to show compassion, empathy, and trust in other people. When we have these documentation systems in place, we empower others to find solutions independently. Not only do they have a running start because of the process, but they can also innovate on a process that's already been done. When they have confidence in knowing what to do, it reduces the reliance on key personnel for routine tasks and frees them up to focus on more strategic work. It ensures consistency in how tasks are performed across the organization, leading to higher-quality output and fewer errors. By investing in process documentation, American Paving Design has created a valuable resource that supports ongoing training. It helps new employees get up to speed quickly and serves as a reference for all team members. That form of knowledge management can significantly improve operational efficiency and employee satisfaction as staff feel far more confident and capable in their roles. You're giving them courage—you're literally sharing courage—when you share these processes with them. While creating such an extensive library can take time and effort, the long-term benefits in terms of efficiency, consistency, and employee empowerment make it a worthwhile investment. Just follow the systems mindset. You don't have to lock yourself away in a library for a week to do this. All you need to do is sit down, and for the next thing you do—document it. Capture it like it's the last time you'll ever do it. That's what we call the systems mindset: the next task you do, video it, document it, record it like it's the last time you'll ever do it.

Police Death By Their Own Hand: A Father's Story and Crusade. The tragedy of losing a child is one no parent should ever endure. But for Brian Sizemore, that pain is now a daily reality, and a lifelong mission. His son, Lucas Henry Sizemore, was just 24 years old when he died by suicide. A newly sworn Atlanta City Police Officer, Lucas had recently graduated from the police academy and was serving proudly in Zone 4 Evening Watch. His passing sent shockwaves through the department, his community, and especially his grieving family. This episode of The Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast now streaming for free on their website, in addition to Apple Podcasts, Spotify, and most major social podcast platforms. “Our hearts are broken, but God is helping us understand and get through each day,” Brian said. “You are loved by so many and will be missed every second of every day for the rest of all of our lives.” The episode is also promoted across their Facebook , Instagram , LinkedIn , Medium and other social media platforms. Lucas's story is one of promise, service, and deep personal struggle. A graduate of Eastern Michigan University, Lucas had interned with Homeland Security Investigations in Detroit before following his passion for law enforcement to Atlanta. Beyond the badge, he was a vibrant young man who loved the outdoors, he camped, hunted, and enjoyed motorcycle rides. Music was a huge part of his life; he was a frequent concert-goer and loved playing guitar. He also deeply cherished his family and his dogs. Look for supporting stories about this and much more from Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast in platforms like Medium , Blogspot and Linkedin . His death on January 9th devastated those closest to him. Brian and Marie Sizemore, Lucas's parents, are still trying to process the unimaginable. “The devastation we feel, my wife, myself, and Lucas's brother Evan, is still as raw as it was that day,” Brian explained. Police Death By Their Own Hand: A Father's Story and Crusade. But out of their grief has come a powerful mission: Lucas's Crusade. A Father's Crusade Determined that their son's death not be in vain, Brian and Marie launched LUCAS, an acronym for Law Enforcement's United Crusade Against Suicide. The foundation's goal is to raise awareness about suicide among police officers and push for stronger mental health resources within departments across the country. Available for free on their website and streaming on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, and other podcast platforms “We will do our best to honor you and help all of your fellow officers,” Brian said. “You do your part, watch over and protect every one of them.” In the U.S., police officers are more likely to die by suicide than in the line of duty. The issue remains one of the most under-addressed mental health crises in law enforcement. Through Lucas's Crusade, Brian has become a voice for those who suffer in silence, and a beacon for families enduring the same pain. Police Death By Their Own Hand: A Father's Story and Crusade. The Atlanta Police Department (APD) responded to Lucas's death with overwhelming compassion. A full honorable funeral and discharge ceremony were arranged to bring him home to Michigan, where he was cremated at Molnar Funeral Homes, Brownstown Chapel. The tribute was not only heartfelt but also a reflection of how deeply Lucas was loved within the department. The Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast episode is available for free on their website , Apple Podcasts , Spotify and most major podcast platforms. “In his time with the department, he dedicated himself to serving and protecting our community,” the APD shared in a Facebook post. “Lucas was not just one of us, he was family.” A Life Remembered Lucas's memory is cherished by many: his parents Brian and Marie, his brother Evan, his fiancée, and extended family including grandparents, aunts, uncles, and cousins. His death is a painful reminder of the human cost behind the badge, and the pressing need for change. Police Death By Their Own Hand: A Father's Story and Crusade. You can listen to his stories and interview on our website for free in addition to platforms like Apple Podcasts and Spotify, and other major podcast platforms. “We are broken, but we are not defeated,” Brian said during an interview featured in a Podcast on Apple, Spotify, and other social media platforms. “Lucas's life had meaning, and his story will help save others.” The Lucas Foundation urges supporters to donate to the Atlanta Police Foundation, Officer Emergency Fund. Contributions in memory of Lucas are encouraged and will go toward helping officers in crisis. As Brian often says in interviews on LinkedIn, Instagram, and across social channels: “This is not just about one life lost. It's about preventing the next.” A Call to Action The silence around police death by their own hand must end. Lucas's story is just one of many, yet it has become a rallying cry thanks to a grieving father's determination. Through Facebook, Instagram, LinkedIn, and an expanding presence in news, podcasts, and social media, Lucas's Crusade is spreading awareness and changing lives. The full podcast episode is streaming now on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, and across Facebook, Instagram, and LinkedIn. To learn more or support the mission, search Lucas Crusade online or follow their journey across platforms. Every voice raised can save a life. Every share can spark a conversation.

The National Guard is deploying in Albuquerque, aiming to help tackle the city's crime problem by freeing up more police officers. New Mexico Governor Michelle Lujan Grisham declared an emergency through an Executive Order in April, after receiving a letter from Albuquerque's Police Chief, who requested additional resources to combat what he described as a crime problem that "continues to be an emergency" in the city. APD says integrating Guardsmen and women will allow officers to be more present in high-crime areas, particularly along Central Avenue. But how will this work? What will the National Guard be doing or not doing? Maj. Gen. Miguel Aguilar, the Adjutant General overseeing New Mexico's National Guard, joins Chris and Gabby to explain everything you need to know. Thanks for listening.

When Albuquerque Mayor Tim Keller appointed Harold Medina as APD chief in 2020, the department was still not fully in charge of itself, having blown past the deadline to end a court-approved settlement agreement the city signed with the U.S. Department of Justice six years prior. DOJ investigators had identified a deeply embedded culture at APD that led to the unconstitutional use of excessive force — and a leadership structure that enabled it. Medina was at the helm of APD when U.S. District Judge James Browning signed an order ending the consent decree on May 12.

Dr. Sebahizi was born and raised in a poor village in the Democratic Republic of Congo. His life was rough. He experienced lots of terrible things, including escaping a genocidal killing at least twice. When he arrived in the United States in 2007, he felt tremendously blessed to have been given such a wonderful opportunity to achieve his unfulfilled dreams, especially going back to school. He overcame life obstacles as an immigrant in the United States to achieve the American dream. He became the first immigrant to join and work for the Abilene Police Department in Texas as a police officer. While working for the APD, Fidele earned multiple degrees: a B.A. in Creative Writing from Southern New Hampshire University in New Hampshire, an M.S. in Criminal Justice from Sam Houston State University in Texas, and a Ph.D. in Criminal Justice—Homeland Security from Liberty University in Virginia. In his interview, he shares incredible stories of courage. In 2004, when he was trapped in a house between two heavily armed forces fighting each other, he didn't know if he would be alive today. In addition, he witnessed a genocidal massacre against his people in a United Nations refugee camp in Burundi, Africa, witnessing the burning bodies of his relatives and friends.
