"He who is faithful in a very little is also faithful in much, and he who is dishonest in a very little is also dishonest in much." Luke 16:10 "Small tasks are the pebbles that pave the road to greatness. Master them, and you'll find yourself on a path to larger responsibilities." Every day, we encounter countless small tasks that may seem insignificant at first glance. Yet, in these little duties, our character is forged and our faithfulness is tested. Just as a tiny seed grows into a mighty oak tree, our diligence in minor responsibilities can lead us to greater opportunities. The Bible reminds us, "He who is faithful in what is least is faithful also in much" (Luke 16:10). When we commit ourselves to the small things, we open doors to bigger challenges and responsibilities. Each time we choose to be diligent—whether it's completing a work assignment, helping a neighbor, or even organizing our personal space—we are building a foundation for future success. These small acts of faithfulness reflect our commitment to God and His purpose for our lives. Proverbs 11:3 says, "The integrity of the upright guides them, but the perversity of the faithless destroys them." Remember this: "Small Steps, Big Impact." Each step you take in faith, no matter how small, leads you closer to your destiny. This is similar to the Magnificent Life Daily Devotion, which may seem small and routine but ultimately guides you toward fulfilling your life's purpose. In the same way, when we embrace the little things, we cultivate a spirit of excellence that prepares us for the bigger challenges ahead. "The seeds of diligence in small tasks grow into the oaks of leadership." Nurturing these seeds requires patience and perseverance, but the fruits are abundant. As we remain steadfast in our commitments, we can trust that God will honor our faithfulness and elevate us in due time. Remember, every grand journey begins with a single, humble step; take those steps with confidence! Proverbs 28:20 says, "A faithful man will abound with blessings, but one eager to be rich will not go unpunished." Prayer for the Day! Heavenly Father, thank You for the reminder of the importance of faithfulness in all areas of our lives. Help us to see the value in small tasks and to approach them with diligence and joy. May our efforts lead us closer to the responsibilities You have in store for us. Guide our hearts and strengthen our resolve as we walk the path You've laid before us. In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen." 

In this episode, Tracy explores how independent healthcare practice owners can leverage small wellness initiatives as powerful demonstrations of leadership. Against the backdrop of unprecedented challenges in healthcare—from high turnover to political pressures—she reveals how intentional wellness practices create disproportionate returns for small practices. Unlike large healthcare systems, small practices have a "leadership proximity advantage" that makes even modest wellness initiatives more effective. Tracy shares practical, low-cost approaches that strengthen team culture, improve retention, and ultimately create more sustainable practices. The episode highlights how leadership presence, rather than elaborate programs, is the true foundation of practice wellbeing.  Episode Highlights:  Why small practices have a distinct advantage in implementing effective wellness initiatives  A simple 20-minute weekly wellness activity that costs nothing but delivers remarkable results  Five mindset practices that integrate wellness into everyday leadership  How to measure the ROI of wellness initiatives through reduced absenteeism and improved engagement  The critical connection between a leader's own sustainable energy and team wellness  Memorable Quotes:  "Culture isn't a workshop we attend. It's about the example we set."  "The most successful practice owners know that wellness isn't about implementing a program—it's about investing in your most valuable asset: your people."  "Small, consistent wellness actions may seem insignificant compared to the daily operations of your practice, but they can completely redirect your practice culture."  "The practices that consistently outperform, even in challenging times, aren't necessarily the ones with the most resources—they're the ones led by owners who understand that how they show up matters more than what they say."  "You can't pour from an empty cup. The foundation of any successful team wellness initiative is your own sustainable energy as a leader."  Free Resource Mentioned: Download the Energy Audit workbook at PracticeSuccess.co/resources  Tracy's Bio:  Tracy Cherpeski, MBA, MA, CPSC (she/her/hers) is the Founder of Tracy Cherpeski International and Thriving Practice Community.

At the University of Wisconsin–Stout, the campus greenhouse is much more than a place to grow plants. “It’s a research space. It’s a teaching space,” says Dr. Keith Gilland, Associate Professor of Biology and Greenhouse Manager. “Students can do independent projects, and we support classes in biology and environmental science.” In fact, the greenhouse has become a hub of cross-department collaboration. Faculty and students from math and engineering are also involved in ongoing projects. One of the standout features is a small robot called a FarmBot. It’s a computer-controlled device that helps automate small-scale agriculture.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

In March 2025, Halifax West MP Lena Metlege Diab presented Janice with the King Charles III Coronation Medal from the Government of Canada for her body of work, books, and longtime mental health advocacy. Janice is a veteran journalist and proud Haligonian. In May 2025, she released her seventh book, Every Little Thing – how small acts of kindness make a big impact, following her 2023 Lyme disease diagnosis. Janice has since fully recovered and wrote this “small book with big messages” to thank society's many and varied helpers, including some of her own. Janice's longtime publisher is Nova Scotia's Pottersfield Press. Her last two books, Eye of the Ocean and Silver Linings, were both bestsellers. Janice's biggest inspiration is her family, husband, Rob, and daughter, Laura. Through her writing, she also honours her late parents, Baz and Theresa. Janice began writing longform non-fiction to tell the gripping story of her firefighter father's national Medal of Bravery for his part in the near-death rescue of an infant from a harrowing 1978 Halifax house fire.   The introductory, end, and bumper music for this podcast (“Laser Groove”) was composed and produced by Kevin MacLeod of www.incompetech.com and is Licensed under Creative Commons: By Attribution 3.0

In this episode, Steph discusses the importance of preparation and consistency in achieving a powerful impact in life. She talks about how often people have the reverse order of needs in their life: work, then family, then self. She acknowledges how people have a lot of moving parts they have to take into account, and when "self" is low on the priority list, it often lead to low energy and burnout. By reevaluating priorities and focusing on self-care, listeners can improve their energy levels and overall well-being. The conversation also highlights the three pillars of health—exercise, nutrition, and sleep—and the significance of planning for recovery and relationships.
