It's August, which means it's probably feels way too early to think about Black Friday, holiday cards, or filling your calendar for Q4... but that's exactly why now is the time to do it!Every year I watch the same thing happen: photographers coast through summer, and then the second Starbucks rolls out everyone's favorite seasonal latte, panic sets in: empty calendar, no plan, reactive scramble. This month on the podcast, we're running something we're calling the Back to School Marketing Challenge, and this episode is step one: getting organized.My marketing director Dayna and I get into: Why proactive marketing beats reactive marketing, every single time The hot, warm, and cold lead system, and why sorting your contacts into these three buckets changes how marketing feels How to go on a "lead scavenger hunt" through your DMs, comments, and email to find people you forgot were even interested Why and how this up-front organization step will increase the effectiveness of these conversations If you're in the Consistency Club, this sets you up for our marketing summit on September 1st, where we turn all of this into an actual plan. If you're not, you're still going to walk away from this one with a spreadsheet and a plan for filling it.LINKS: Learn more about Consistency Club Resources:New to the podcast?

How is summer actually over? I feel like I was just planning our Hawaii trip and now I am sitting here printing out school schedules, filling out permission forms, and trying to gradually convince my teenagers that midnight is no longer an acceptable bedtime. The vampire schedule is officially coming to an end, friends. And I don't know about you — but this week it became very real for me. This is the last week of summer vacation before our kids go back to school. And instead of feeling relaxed and ready, I found myself making a mental list of everything that still needs to happen before that first day bell rings. So today I am pulling back the curtain and sharing exactly what I am doing THIS week to get our family ready for back to school — the real, practical, unsexy stuff that actually makes the transition smoother. Not a Pinterest perfect version of back to school prep. My actual list. The things I am doing right now in my own home with my own teenagers. We are talking about: ✨ Our family's back to school celebration dinner — and why we do it every single year ✨ How we are slowly pulling our kids off the vampire schedule before school starts ✨ The back to school supply secret that will save you time and money ✨ Why saying no right now is one of the most important things you can do for your family ✨ How to protect white space and reflection time before your calendar explodes ✨ And the missing piece most moms overlook when their routines just are not working — and what to do about it This is such a real, practical episode — and whether your kids go back next week or you still have a few weeks left, I think you are going to walk away with a handful of things you can actually do this week to make the transition feel a whole lot smoother. So let's dive in. Reminder: Quick Announcement We have some fun things coming up THIS WEEK: We have an amazing event called A Week That Works coming up THIS FRIDAY, Aug 7th 9-12pm. There will be six speakers diving into practical steps on how you can save over three hours every week!

As you prepare for a new school year, it's easy to focus on lesson plans, supplies, and classroom décor. But before students experience your instruction, they experience the environment you've created. In this episode, I explore how thoughtful classroom design can reduce friction, support student independence, increase access, and create opportunities for learner agency from the very first day. I'll share practical ideas for designing classroom zones, arranging furniture to support different kinds of learning, creating visual supports that students actually use, and building spaces that students help shape throughout the year. Whether you're teaching in a brand-new classroom or making the most of heavy desks and limited space, you'll walk away with a fresh lens for designing the conditions that make meaningful learning possible.

Back to school season doesn't have to mean falling off track with your nutrition. Whether your kids are heading back to school or you're simply stepping into a new routine this Fall, now is the perfect opportunity to reset your schedule and get your diet back on track. In today's episode, I'm sharing the exact strategy I use with myself and my clients to stay consistent during busy seasons. We'll talk about why you need to start by looking at your calendar and figuring out what your new routine actually looks like, how to plan your food around your busiest days, and the simple habit I use every night to stay ahead of what's coming the next day. I'll also show you how to use a new season as an opportunity to reinvent your meal routine with realistic meal prep that doesn't require cooking every meal, every day. From egg McMuffins and overnight oats to chicken salad, pasta bakes, and make-ahead meatballs, I'll share easy ideas to help you make healthy eating more convenient. If you're ready to use this back to school season as your fresh start, this episode will show you exactly how to create a routine that makes staying on track with your fat loss goals easier.

We are BACK, teacher besties, and I have SO much to catch you up on. It's the season three premiere of How to Survive the Classroom, and Gerry has arrived with a NEW nose ring, a PASSED edTPA, and a very concerning number of years since his last dentist appointment. Buckle up. We recap Gerry's full edTPA journey and then get into a real conversation kicked off by my 100-year-old grandpa, who was a teacher for seven years before he quit, largely because he was frustrated that pay was tied to years of service instead of actual skill. Fifty years later, that same debate is still going, and we dig into merit-based pay, the limits of standardized testing, and why electives teachers get left out of the conversation entirely. Then we jump into back-to-school fan questions: what NOT to do your first year, the worst icebreakers ever, and how new teachers can actually protect their time. Plus, an unhinged Two Truths and a Lie round where Gerry casually mentions being present for an Easter Sunday prison riot and I have some follow-up questions. ORDER MY NEW BOOK (AVAILABLE NOW)!!! — https://bit.ly/49CZ5A0 Takeaways: Do NOT coach your first year of teaching. Even if you love the sport, the workload will bury you. Wait until year two if you can. Please do not become a teacher just because you want to coach. Coaching is its own career path, teaching kids just to earn a whistle isn't fair to the students in your classroom. Watch your icebreakers. Two Truths and a Lie in a class of 30 will take the entire period AND leave you exposed to whatever wild thing a student wants to reveal. Choose carefully. Do the work at school. Grading, prep, and lesson planning inside the building beats opening your laptop at 9 PM every night. Protect your home time. The teacher pay debate has been the same conversation for 50+ years. Both skill and years of service matter, but standardized test scores mostly measure the poverty level of an area, so any "merit-based" system needs a smarter way to measure real impact. -- Teachers' night out?

The back-to-school season has a way of making life feel like it's moving at full speed. Before you jump into the schedules, sports, carpools, lunches, and everything else on your plate, take a few minutes to reset. In this month's guided meditation, I'll walk you through a simple practice to calm your nervous system, quiet the mental noise, and help you step into your day feeling more grounded, intentional, and present. You don't need a less busy life to feel more centered—you just need a moment to reconnect with yourself.

In Episode 150 of Let's Talk Learning Disabilities, Laurie shifts the focus away from typical back-to-school prep and onto a group of students that she thinks about most: the bright, well-behaved kids making good grades who are quietly struggling behind the scenes. Grades only tell you what a student produced, not what it cost them... and smart kids are especially skilled at compensating for learning disabilities like dyslexia, ADHD, or slow processing speed through strong memory, supportive parents, and sheer effort, until eventually the workload outpaces their ability to cope. Rather than watching report cards, Laurie urges parents to pay attention during the first six weeks to warning signs like excessive homework time, exhaustion, avoidance of reading, rising anxiety, and a child who is quietly losing confidence, because sometimes the most serious struggles are the ones no one else can see.Resources:Contact info for the podcast: letstalklearningdisabilities@gmail.comE-Diagnostic Learning Website: https://ediagnosticlearning.comFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/eDiaglearning/Twitter: @diaglearningLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/diagnostic-learning-services/Instagram: @diaglearning
This hour, Dr. Adam Brockman breaks down the health headlines actually worth your attention —including an outbreak that's now the largest of its kind on record — before turning to the health prep every family need before the school bell rings. Then, a simple, decades-old remedy makes a comeback as the Health Alternative of the Week. But the hour takes a hard turn with a Health Mystery that's sparking outrage across the medical world: a six-year-old girl, an $800,000 experimental treatment, and a death that was never supposed to see the light of day. Plus, the one habit Dr. Brockman says could change how you navigate your own health decisions for good.Health Headlines of the WeekHealth Alternative of the WeekHealth Mystery of the Week

In this episode, Josh and Sam explore how pastors can prepare their churches for one of the most strategic ministry seasons of the year: back-to-school. As families shift routines, students face new pressures, and parents feel the weight of another busy season, churches have a unique opportunity to serve, encourage, and disciple. A strong back-to-school plan is not about adding more activity to the calendar. It is about aligning ministries, equipping volunteers, and intentionally supporting parents as they lead their homes through a demanding season.
