Website redesigns are a common occurence in higher ed institutions. However, they often are not acheiving the true goal of the redesign, which is to make it easy for prospective students to connect, and enroll with that institution. Blair Lee has been a part of many website redesigns, and has found that ease of use, and focusing on language that speaks to your prospective students is paramount. We will go over some of those strategies for improving your website, as well as how institutions should think about future proofing.

Corporate accounting is a beast of a career…and I quickly got to the point where I had to make my escape. Not because I wasn't good at the work. I was. Not because I didn't like my bosses and coworkers. I did. But because the 9-5 life just did NOT match up with the life I dreamed of for myself. The story of my escape is a long and complicated one, but I love sharing it. I love to let others know exactly what's possible…that even when you've only ever pictured one path for yourself, there are others out there. And YOU get to choose which one you want to live.

In this episode of Wicked Energy with JG, Justin sits down with Genna Blair Lee, Senior Client Advocate at Drill2Frac to discuss her mission and purpose for getting into the oil and gas industry. Her passion and a deep sense of curiosity have led Genna down a successful career from logistics to software sales, subsurface and reservoir analysis to completion enthusiast with a focus on analyzing near-wellbore rock properties. Genna also shares her passion and perspective on why it's imperative for people to understand energy and how people can use platforms like LinkedIn to create a voice. Prior to pursuing a career in energy, Genna's passion started in the world of country singing where she used her natural talent of singing to perform at many different events which eventually led to being a vocalist at New Hope Church. Genna shares her story on American Idol and how that experience made her quit singing for 8 years until she committed to using her voice at Church to help others. Lastly, Genna will be launching her own podcast called LifeSavy which will focus on interviewing people on their perspectives on anything and everything including marriage, relationships, real estate, energy, country music, and everything in between! Leveraging existing drilling data, Drill2Frac delivers near-wellbore rock properties and fluid distribution modeling on wells. Drill2Frac provides proactive insights into how rock properties vary throughout the wellbore. These insights allow operators to optimize completion efficiency, mitigate risk, and enhance well performance.

In this episode I sit down with Jason and Blair Lee as they kick off their journey into real estate investing. They reveal their secret to partnering together as a couple, and we discuss the importance of finding your true "purpose" and having a strong enough "why" to keep pushing on when times get tough. Blair is a Market Development Manager at Stratum Reservoir and has become very familiar with the "boom or bust nature" of upstream oil and gas. Her husband Jason is a VP at Exponent Advisors, an investment firm in Houston that focuses on helping entrepreneurs along their journey to financial independence.
Many parents new to homeschooling often immediately think “what curriculum or program should I buy” when in reality, that question should be much further down the list. Every family comes to homeschooling for different reasons but regardless of that reason, a parent should really take some time to think about what they want for their child’s education, as well as, what their child needs to learn best. These are two separate issues to think about. Both are are very important though to determine how to move forward in determining how and what to teach your child(ren). The good news is there are a variety of social media groups, blogs, articles, and books to learn from and get insight for your educational needs. It’s important to take time to research, think and formulate your own educational philosophies and needs for YOU and YOUR CHILD. Once you think a bit deeper about your needs, you may find that what you want for your child isn’t “traditional” and you want something more natural or developmental. On the flip side, you may find that you want something more rigorous and challenging. Each child is different and it will be easier to target curriculum or programs that might work for you and your child once you dive deeper into these ideas.Here’s a list of well regarded books to explore education and homeschooling as a larger issue. It’s by no means an exhaustive list and there are many books available through your library e media, amazon, Kindle, or perhaps even a fellow homeschooler can loan you one. Reading just a few of these will very likely get you thinking differently about education and sharpen your educational goals. You will find it’s much easier to continue your homeschool journey with a better foundation.Educational Realities (or why you should homeschool)Dumbing Us Down by John Taylor GattoWhy Are You Still Sending Your Kids to School by Blake Boles (releasing soon)Free to Learn by Peter Gray John Holt-any of his booksHomeschool Styles/Philosophies The Brave Learner: Finding Everyday Magic in Homeschool, Learning, and Life by Julie Bogart (www.bravewriter.com)The Unschooling Journey by Pam LaricchiaUnschooled: Raising Curious, Well-Educated Children Outside the Conventional Classroom by Kerry McDonald, forward by Peter Gray Rethinking School: How to Take Charge of Your Child's Education By Susan Wise BauerA Literary Education by Emily Cook How to booksProject Based Learning by Blair Lee & Samantha CookThe Well-Trained Mind by Susan Wise Bauer (caveat:this is a lengthy book that can feel intimidating and overwhelming, however, if used as a guide, it can be very helpful for those interested in a more rigorous and/or classical education model)Cathy Duffy's 102 Top Picks for Homeschool CurriculumI would greatly appreciate it if you enjoyed the podcast, please leave me a review wherever you listen to podcasts to help my search-ability.
