115 | Unpacking Donald Trump's Very Weird Environmental Orders

Bionic Planet: Your Guide to the New Reality

In this episode of Bionic Planet, Season 10, Episode 115, we dive into the significant environmental implications of the executive orders signed by President Donald Trump on his first day in office. Originally, we had planned to focus this season on Africa, but the rapid changes in U.S. environmental policy prompted us to shift gears. I connected with Tim Male last week. Tim, who founded the Environmental Policy Innovation Center in 2017, has a wealth of experience in environmental policy, having worked in various capacities, including at the White House and with organizations like Defenders of Wildlife. Both Tim and I share a commitment to addressing climate challenges, despite our differing perspectives on party policies. In our discussion, we unpack Tim's recent LinkedIn post, where he meticulously breaks down the ten executive actions that target environmental regulations. We explore the unprecedented number of executive orders issued in such a short time frame and the potential consequences of these actions. Tim emphasizes that while executive orders can set priorities for federal agencies, they must still align with existing laws, which can lead to legal challenges. We delve into specific orders, starting with the requirement for the "God squad" under the Endangered Species Act to meet more frequently and expedite reviews of projects that could impact endangered species. Tim explains the historical context of this committee and its potential to prioritize development over environmental protections. Next, we discuss directives to the Army Corps of Engineers to expedite permitting processes under the Clean Water Act and the Endangered Species Act, raising concerns about the implications for environmental safeguards. Tim provides insights into the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) and its role in ensuring that federal actions minimize environmental harm. We also examine the revocation of President Carter's executive order aimed at making environmental impact statements more accessible to the public, which Tim argues could lead to confusion and inconsistency across federal agencies. The episode continues with a discussion on the rescinding of protections for ancient forests and the withdrawal from international efforts to combat deforestation. Tim highlights the significance of ecosystem service valuation and the potential loss of guidance that could have helped quantify the benefits of environmental services. We touch on the broader implications of these actions, including the potential for increased energy production at the expense of environmental protections. As we wrap up, we reflect on the long-term consequences of these executive orders and the potential for legal challenges. Tim expresses concern about the sweeping nature of these actions and the message they send to communities affected by energy projects. This episode serves as a critical examination of the intersection between politics and environmental policy, providing listeners with a deeper understanding of the current landscape and the challenges ahead in the fight against climate change.

Her creative efforts extend to her podcast, also titled "Inclusion Starts Now," where she engages in meaningful discussions about educational practices.Episode Summary:In this engaging episode of the Think Inclusive Podcast, host Tim Villegas welcomes Kayla Coburn from "Inclusion Starts Now" for a rich dialogue on promoting inclusive education practices. Both Tim and Kayla share their experiences as former special education teachers and discuss the complexities of working within school systems resistant to change. The conversation delves into practical strategies for fostering inclusive environments, even when structural obstacles exist. Tim and Kayla explore the nuances and challenges of expanding inclusive practices in school districts that still perpetuate special education classrooms and programs. They address the metaphor of "planting seeds" as critical to pushing forward the boundaries of what inclusive practices can achieve, especially in historically non-inclusive settings. The episode highlights the importance of relationship-building and persistence in advocating for systemic change within education.Transcript: https://otter.ai/u/QgahJWww2zvGk4a-Ix7GmHfWQ3YKey Takeaways:Building trust and relationships with colleagues is essential for fostering an inclusive educational environment.Educators should not feel shame for using methods such as "reverse inclusion" but should continue to work towards more authentic inclusion for all learners.Persistence and continued advocacy are vital for driving systemic change in school districts.Inclusive education benefits everyone—students with and without disabilities—by creating a more enriched learning environment.Innovative leadership and grassroots efforts can effectively pave the way for broader inclusive practices in education.Resources:Inclusion Starts Now: https://www.inclusionstartsnow.com/Inclusion Starts Now Podcast: https://pod.link/1732870059Books by Kayla: https://www.inclusionstartsnow.com/shopThank you to our sponsor, IXL.

Watch this on YouTube PART 2: In part two (originally aired on YouTube), Tim and Ed discuss critical race theory (CRT) and its relevance to the church. Ed explains that he wrote his book, 'Untangling Critical Race Theory,' to provide a more accurate understanding of CRT and its potential benefits for Christians. They discuss the five tenets of CRT, which focus on the ongoing racial disparities and inequalities in American society. They also explore the resistance and politicization of CRT, as well as the need for Christians to engage in conversations about race and justice. In this part of the conversation, Tim and Ed discuss their views on the white evangelical structures and systems. Tim expresses his belief that these structures are deeply flawed and soaked in racist ideology, and he sees little hope for reforming them. He suggests that the church can move forward by dismantling these structures and rethinking what it means to love God and love your neighbor in community. Ed, on the other hand, acknowledges the flaws in these systems but believes in holding them accountable and working towards a better way forward. He emphasizes the importance of provoking people to see a different way of doing things and planting seeds for change. Takeaways Critical race theory (CRT) is a framework that examines the ongoing racial disparities and inequalities in American society. CRT seeks to reveal and confront how dominant culture racial power works through laws, policies, and patterns to maintain a racial hierarchy. The resistance and politicization of CRT have led to misconceptions and misunderstandings about its purpose and potential benefits. Christians should engage in conversations about race and justice, centering the voices and experiences of marginalized communities. The white evangelical structures and systems are deeply flawed and soaked in racist ideology. Tim believes that these structures are not salvageable and should be dismantled, while Ed believes in holding them accountable and working towards a better way forward. Both Tim and Ed emphasize the importance of provoking people to see a different way of doing things and planting seeds for change. They agree that the church can move forward by rethinking what it means to love God and love your neighbor in community.

Nicole (Nicki) Lenway was a crime scene investigator for the Minneapolis Police Department and a mother to her 5-year-old son, Callahan. Things in her life were going well with the exception that her ex-boyfriend, Tim Amacher, was trying to destroy her. They dated for many years but broke up after Nicki had had enough of his toxicity. But, a month after breaking up Nicki found out she was pregnant. After having her son, Nicki hoped that co-parenting would work, but Tim seemed uninterested. That is until she got into a new relationship with MPD officer Donovan Ford. Only then did Tim seem to care about his child. But he went about it in the worst way possible. He began making false claims that Nicki abused their son, and got CPS involved. CPS and a judge obviously believed that Nicki WASN'T abusing Callahan, and gave her full custody. So what did Tim do? He got his new girlfriend to try and kill Nicki. But she failed. Nicki survived being shot twice and lived to get justice.

Barry's strongest bet of the meeting is in the Juvenile Fillies Turf, Tim has a 7/1 wager in the Juvenile, while Emmet makes the case for an Aidan O'Brien clean sweep in the Juvenile Turf.  It's hard to ignore the incredible story of Cody's Wish in the Dirt Mile. Both Tim and Barry strongly agree on their bet against the two market leaders in the Filly & Mare Turf. We're all backing Goodnight Olive in the Filly & Mare Sprint, although there's a difference of opinion on the Breeders' Cup Mile.

I'm really pleased today that I have person who I have followed for years joining me. And when I contemplated what we're going to talk about today was the obvious choice for who to reach out to and that's George Trachilis. George, thanks very much for taking the time. George 01:08Oh, thank you. Thank you, Tim. So Tim 01:10today, we spent a little bit of time here before we hit record talking about what we want to cover. And we don't really know where this is gonna go. But I believe it's all around how both of us, our careers have taken us into the area of strategy, leadership development, team development. And we share a common starting point. And that is really moving from operational excellence, and the tools that are involved there all the way into this, this era. So maybe as a start, why don't you tell us a little bit about yourself, what you're working on. And then we can get into how we found ourselves down this path. George 01:53So, my name is George Trachilis. For those of you that don't know me, I started off in Lean In 1994, working for a company called Motorcoach Industries, which was Greyhound Buses. And in those days, I was a young engineer, just coming out of school basically. And I was asked to be on an implementation team for an ERP implementation, which took me to Pembina, North Dakota in the US from Winnipeg, Canada. And we implemented an ERP system, which included total quality management, and what we knew as Lean back then, and Kanban, and all the tools. And we had consultants come in from all Oliver White Consulting. And what they did was they share the tools with us, the leaders of the group, and then they asked us to go train others. And I loved it. What I say is I caught the bug, that was it, I can no longer work in a regular job. It needed to be about change, and looking at the light go on in people's eyes. That's what it was all about. And it hasn't been for 30 years now. The first 10 years was me implementing with a team of people the second 10 years, was owning my own consulting business going to Edmonton Calgary throughout Canada. As a matter of fact, I had an online course that created maybe the first online course, on Lean 101 the Lego Simulation Airplane Game. And the Government of Alberta bought it, which means I was allowed to sell it for them. And they trained 300 companies in Alberta, Canada, which then expanded because in 2011, I just said let's give it away to the world. And I had like in December of that year, something like 300 students on average registered per day. So, it was pretty amazing that everybody in 2011 love this thing called Lean. Okay, Lean is great. But I found I was missing something because I would go into a company, somebody would show me the Toyota way and the 4P model. Okay. I didn't know what all that meant. And then in 2012, I was doing more online courses and I met Jeff Liker, and I met Norman Bodek. Actually in reverse Norman first, Jeff Liker, and met a lot of the Guru's and I went to Japan learned a lot about the Toyota way of doing things, met with a lot of Toyota coaches, especially on Toyota business practices, and learned that and now I coach and develop people using Toyota business practices. But throughout the last 30 years, even though the last 10 is all on leadership development, I still go in, I still do value stream mapping, I still do the tools. So that's not a problem. I love doing that. But I get the benefit there. Not everybody else necessarily. If I can teach that, well, somebody else is getting the benefit. Now I coach and develop companies. And I've got two big clients today where I'm coaching leaders to be leaders. And they're coaching others. So, the mental model I used to have in the first one years was the five principles of Lean. Okay? Define value from the customer's perspective, right? Define the value stream, first flow, then pull, and strive for perfection, great five values, great five principles of Lean. Now, ever since Jeff Liker and I put the book together, called Developing Lean leaders at all levels, the model we share there is, number one, live the core values of the company. Okay, that's number one. Number two, commit to self development, because everybody knows, if you don't develop yourself, you don't have that attitude, you're going nowhere, you're going nowhere, plus, you're causing everybody else, no end of pain, because you're in it for yourself, everybody's got to do something for you. And you're not enough for the customer or the company, or your teamwork, or your team players. Number two coach and develop others, we need everybody to be a coach, as a manager. If you're not coaching and developing somebody, you're just not doing your job as a manager. Number three, support daily Kaizen. And then number four, define your targets and align all of your processes towards those targets for that year. So create vision, and align targets. That's number four. So that mental model today is a model that I refer to as the Lean Leadership Development Model. Jeff, and I created a company called Lean Leadership Institute. And we have an online course that trains that to the masses. But really step one, I always say if you can't improve, if you can't say, I want to improve, there's something wrong. And it's not with a everybody else. It's with you. So, so just just making sure people know and then I usually get the question is like, what happens when you meet somebody like that? Well, don't worry about them, don't focus on them as a leader, the more you focus on the laggards, the more attention everybody else will want from you. And you'll lose good people focus on your superstars, you know, that's the direction you're going people get caught up. So what I'm working on today is remote coaching for several companies, and helping them understand how they should be thinking so that they can teach that mindset to others. Tim 07:33It's a real basis and thought, when we think of just the pure efficiency of playing to your strengths, or supporting, I liked what you said there about focusing on the superstars. Because we're going to improve our reach, we're going to make sure that we have all the right thought going on in the organization, rather than focusing on constraints, it it's a good place to be but with teams, we need to be marshaling everybody into a common goal. And what was that old saying that they used to say? You know, do you want to be the hero with 1000 Helpers? Or do you want to be the leader with 1000? Heroes? You know, really, can we bring that out in people? I'm still floored by just how similar the evolution is between yourself and myself and where we've landed. George 08:26I'm not. I think it's funny, because when we're a Lean thinker, what is it we're looking for? We're looking to help people, okay. And when we see the gap, we kind of say, hey, let's close the gap. And this is the gap for a long time. We just never saw it. And we've been distracted by others, like, let's call them thought leaders that have driven us in a certain thinking process. We've been distracted for about 10 to 20 years. But today, I think we're on top of the real issue, which is our leaders are not leaders, at times, they're not behaving that way. They're thinking about short term results and behaving in a way similar to get those versus the long term game that they could get by staying on course, you know, making sure people understand they're valued at the company. They're the only appreciating asset. You're growing the people that's your job. When I was in Japan, it was funny because Matt Amezaga he was the Vice President of Operations at all of Toyota. He said that Fujio Cho, asked him to go back to Kentucky and get the culture back because they had a leader there. This particular leader didn't do a good job. And in a matter of one year, he destroyed the culture. And it took four years to get it back. But he did it in three, he was very impressed with himself. So, this is the kind of culture that you need. And you, you got to think of the culture as the behaviors. And the behaviors, behaviors of the leadership go furthest. When you see somebody in front of you, and they're the CEO of the company, and they bend down, they pick up a piece of garbage, and they throw it in the garbage can. That's not like for show. That's because they live it. That's because they, they understand that if they don't demonstrate what they want from others, they're not going to get it. Tim 10:30Yeah, I think tied on to that is, if the leaders are behaving in a way, or if the managers or the executives in those that should be in leadership roles are behaving in a way that demonstrates the worst possible things, then that also becomes how we define the culture because you know, that culture is defined by the worst behaviors we're willing to accept. And it can be so debilitating for an organization to have the wrong people getting the attention. It really takes away from the enjoyment and from the fulfillment, that everybody who's fighting the good fight is able to derive from it. And when I think back to some of the experiences that I had, I remember what my first major regional management role was with was with a large commercial bakery, and I had Thunderbay to Vancouver Island. Spent a lot of time in Winnipeg, incidentally. You know, working in that area, I spent two years creating, I was deploying TQM back in the day. So we were doing quality circles and having a bunch of unionized employees wrangling waste, and getting it down and, and really working with the union to help them understand why we were having people work off page and not necessarily working to their their job description, but getting excited for their role. And one organizational shift where they decided to take our regional office out of Calgary and send it back east, and that we were no longer going to play nicey nice with the unions, it dismantled culture overnight, it dismantled all of that positive work we had done, and really made improvement. Not impossible, but a fight again, that didn't have to be. And throughout my career, I think as I evolved, I could design great, elegant processes. I could go in and do the work, I could come up with the answer I could, I could define and measure and analyze and improve till the cows came home and loved doing it, it was a lot of fun. You could get the right answers. And if the leaders weren't on side, you were done. You were dead in the water. And if you manage to get it over the line, the leaders decided that that wasn't what they were interested in anymore. They could dismantle it overnight. I started out as a junior team-building consultant, and then I and then I went in school, I found operations management, and loved it. And then I came full circle. And I realized that really, I could enable other people to do the improvement, teach them the skills and let them go out and, and reengineer the processes. But I needed to focus on hoeing the row for those improvement projects to take place. And getting leadership excited. Yeah, so I mean, that's very similar in terms of where I've ended up because it yes, the other work is very, very important. But it needs to have fertile ground. Otherwise you're, you're throwing good money out. George 13:49Yea, it's interesting, you say fertile ground. And I think immediately about the leader. If the leader doesn't have fertile ground in their brain, we've got a problem. And Gallup, for example, just came out with a statement that 70% of all hiring decisions are wrong, based on you know what a good leader is. And you think, well, what's the characteristics of a good leader? They only have other than the skills, the hard skills, the soft skill, one of the main ones is that they're willing, and they believe in improvement. They believe in Kaizen, it's almost like Kaizen resides in their heart. I believe I can be better tomorrow than I am today. And the day after can be better than tomorrow. And ultimately, if they have that belief system, and they're willing to do the work on themselves, that's like a beacon. It'll just generate light for the rest of the organization. Nobody tests for it. So the fertile ground in my mind is in their brain. And today, I've actually avoided working at mid-level in a company. Avoid 90% failure rate is guaranteed when you're not dealing with the executives, and you're not dealing with the people who actually can, in some ways, demonstrate and expand and proliferate Kaizen and improvement and call it Lean, call it excellence. If they don't do it, nobody else is gonna do it. Tim 15:21That lesson was hard one for me, because often, I'd be entering into the wrong level of an organization. And, you know, it took me losing. Well, we did great work, but the work was… George 15:36It's not sustainable. Okay. Tim 15:41Well, there's priority changes, and the work was just the work was just taken out from under us. And, and it was, it was awful. That, because we knew we knew where we were in the answers we were bringing in, but it was a fickle leader made a snap judgment. And so yeah, I have since for several years now, I only work if I'm starting from the top, because you need to have that conviction. And that willingness, and that space, that space to improve. It's really interesting. Sometimes when you're talking about, you'll run into teams that have capacity challenges and want to improve. And one of the first things that I say is a great reason to go and chase some waste is we have to create enough capacity that we have capacity to improve. And then that is that, I think back to that Covey model, where they talk about the Covey's quadrants, and how that quadrant one is urgent and important. And Quadrant Two is really important but not urgent. If we can get operating in quadrant two, that would where Lean resides in my mind, it's the only quadrant that pays dividends. It's the only one that creates more space to create more space, more efficiency to create more efficiency. Capacity building on top of capacity. If we don't have the support of the leaders to start that process, it's really tough. You have that support lined up top to bottom cascading down through the organization. And it's really easy. That's not only easy, it's fun. And I mean, the work is tough enough, trying to convince leadership trying to work and overcome turbulence in teams. That's tough. Like it's, let's let the work be tough. Let's not let's not make working with people tough. So you'd said something earlier again, before we had hit record here. I want you to share that thought around starting in the students mind. You take care of that a little bit. You're talking about Gemba. And I thought that was fascinating. George 17:54Like a progression for me over the years. But I brought Ritsuo Shingo, bless his heart, he's the late Shingo now. Shingo San, I brought him to Santorini, Greece, along with others, who were leaders in their industry, you know, there's business owners, there's, you know, others like Paul Akers, as an example, I brought him to Santorini, Greece. And we did training there. And we went through a Gemba Walk of Santo Wines, one of the biggest, the biggest winery in Santorini. And we're watching somebody work, we're watching somebody work. And what they're doing is they got a big light facing them, and they got, you know, like three bottles on each end. And they're looking, their eyes are focused on the bottle, and the light is behind it. So, you might be able to see something, you know, in the bottle. And so they're looking for spiders, because the bottle sometimes just, just over. So they do wash the bottles, but sometimes, you know, if there's like a big nest in there, you put that bottle aside and needs extra washing, but this is what this person's job function was. And ritual wouldn't leave. And he's just observing. And I'm thinking, what's he, what could he possibly observe? Like the flow is such that there's such a queue in front of them, and the line is running, and there's no way he's gonna be out of work. Like, he's got a lot of work and the lines running, maybe he's not, maybe they're slack. I don't know if he's trying to calculate how much time he's actually working, versus how many bottles are moved. I don't know what he's doing. And it was so shocking. I said, what do you what are you doing? He says George San, watch his eyes. And I'm watching the workers eyes. And as he lifts the bottles, his eyes are down. I'm going oh, Shingo San I never thought to watch the workers eyes. Like pretend you're in the worker shoes, and think you're the worker, and your job is to do this function. And he says also, there's no standard. I sai, what do you mean no standard. Sometimes he lifts up three bottles, and two, and sometimes two and two, sometimes three and three, there's no standard. And I'm going, Wow, he got all that from what I would just say that's just not important. Okay. So from that, I thought, How does somebody look at improvement? And so for example, I'm coaching somebody now he's a, he's a great coach. His name is Raj Pathak, I'm sure he's he's okay with me using his name. He just went through PDCA excellence training with myself and Dr. Jake Abraham, who is my Toyota coach. And we just finished training. And he did a great A3, now it's time for him to train others. And they've got a big project to do. He's leading the project. And I said, So Raj, tell me what you're thinking, what's the first meeting look like? And why? He says, Well, I want to go right into step one, okay. And I'm trying to understand why he would want to just go right into step one, for everybody of problem-solving, when we got a whole team here, and they're different areas, and he might not have a challenge for each one. So I said, what's your challenge for each individual, and he doesn't have that thought through. So I'm thinking, we need to do some visualization, what this might look like. So that's kind of the biggest thing for me, is if you can't visualize the end, to some degree, getting into it right away, that's the gap. There's a gap between being able to visualize the results, and get everybody else signing up into a charter saying, Here's what we want to do great. That charter, I've seen so many places, I've seen it work, it never works without everybody signing. So that's part of the Nemawashi though the consensus building that you need in Lean today, in order to make it work. So that's why I say you got to think about like, what's in their head? For two reasons. Number one, you want to know if there's any gaps. But number two, what are the gaps between them, and you. You could be the one in the learning seat. And so that's where the teacher sometimes learns more than the student. You know, show me more, tell me how you get that. I did that a couple of times, with students that I'm going, okay, I better pick up that book and read it. Jim 22:37Yeah, in my parlance, over the last few years, fluency has been the big word. And it's, you know, are you fluent in your own beliefs and your own thoughts around what we're about to do? Are you fluent in that and how you conceptualize work and what you value? And how you align to the corporate goals? Or what are your own goals? What's your workstyle? What's your genius? George 23:03We call that a little different. We call that the line of sight. But let me ask you this. What's your long term goal? Tim 23:10Myself? George 23:11Yeah, 10 years. Tim 23:1310 years out? I mean, I think it will be that I've managed to train enough leaders in this, in this practice, that they are self-sufficient, that my own company has a body of work behind it, that allows what can be would you say automated or that can be approached individually is happening and that we are focused in that space where other people can can begin to do some of the heavy lifting, I guess. Whereas for myself, I focus primarily on the teaching, and, and really getting the senior most leaders lined up for the work. The challenge becomes, can you carry that work all the way down to the coalface can it cascade through the organization effectively? And so, I mean, from my own practices, I think that's really important that the company has my clients have the ability to carry this thinking all the way down, internally. And so I'd say for the next 10 years on this, it's really about Systemizing. And in getting that, that together, and I'm on track for that. Whether or not it will materialize in that way. I'm not sure. But I don't exactly know “the how” yet to be frank. George 24:41Yeah. So one of the most amazing things I've come across is some guy on the internet. Norman Bodek, by the way, who's dead again, you know, like he he's gone. Mike, another coach is gone. Norman Bodek said, You need to learn about the people-side of Lean. And I'm going I don't know what that means. So he was talking about the Harada Method, with Kakashi Harada in Japan, teaching people how to be self-reliant. And they come up with their goal. They come up with their tasks, they go and execute and and one of the famous, the famous baseball player in the world today Shohei Ohtani did the 64th chart with Takashi Harada, in Japan. So it's pretty amazing that there is a process for almost every problem. But when you want to be successful, you need a system. You can't just have a process, we can go in with Lean. And we can say, here's a problem describing the problem, which is obviously half solved if you can do that. And we put together some tools and we say let's go through this. And we got a solution. For every problem, there's a solution. But for really successful people, they need a system. And that's why the Harada Method came into into play for me as well. 10 years ago, yeah, Tim 26:09that'll help me answer that, that question. More retrospectively, but yeah, the biggest leaps that I've taken in my business and my coaching practice and, and working with leaders, and again, I specialize in academics, and STEM leaders, people that are they're fairly linear in their thinking or at least linear in their, in the practice. And it really has been. It's funny, because as we talk about where that catastrophic derailment happened due to a that's actually what was the impetus for me taking a step back and looking at everything that I practiced over several decades of doing this work two decades doing this work. And deciding that I wanted to just really box what was working the best and I ended up starting to put my practices into some structures and into some processes. And I'd shied away from that. As the Lean guy, I'd shied away from that instead, you know, opting for more of a artisan approach or job shop approach, because I wanted, I wanted to make sure that I gave everybody a unique path through and I had to get my own mind around the fact that you know what, once I had systemized my approach my first conversation, say with with new coaching clients, suddenly I had a bunch of things going for me one, I didn't have to imagine where I was going next I had a place that I could start. And I knew they were reliable tools I used the most. They're things that I believe in, and that they've always worked. So there, I had linear thinkers I was dealing with, I could show them the path. I remember one point in my career, I had an engineer come up to me and say, Man, that was amazing. You did it was a piece of collaborative contract we're doing. But boy, you sure you sneak up on people. He said to me, I said, What do you mean, he says, We I didn't know what this was all about. And then towards the end of it, I was just like, amazed at how far we come out sure would have been calmer. If I had known where you were gonna take us well, now I can put a roadmap in front of this is what we're about to do, I'm not going to wait and deliver a punch line and, and make a guess at what we're going to do. And then the ability to just really test those theories, as blueprints for people doing well, and prove them out until they can be now I can isolate if I'm going to improve something about them, I can see the whole path. And, you know, it's so funny because I try not to be too hard on myself. But you know, you know these tools, and just the ability to step back and apply them to your own business, something that could seem rather chaotic, has made a big difference. George 29:01The entrepreneur does that. The entrepreneur thinks they must recreate everything for our client for every customer. So look, that's not a bad thing. You just got to recognize that if you want to stay a one person company, you'd better start thinking differently. Entrepreneur not. Because yeah, because there are people out there that like a system. And nowadays two companies are growing. Their reference of the past is not as relevant as it was. So what they're doing is they're experimenting their way towards the future. And understanding how to experiment is critical. So you know, of course Mike Rother is, you know, that Toyota Kata guy, and he used to be a student of Jeff Likers. So, you know, it's coming kind of from the same place. What did we miss with Toyota? What we missed was the soft stuff. We got the hard stuff. You know, 4S, they have at Toyota not 5S, we kind of know how to do that. But we don't have the discipline. And we're always thinking, look at all these tools, what are they there for? They're there to develop the people. And we never thought like that. We were, you know, great people, great products, they kind of bound it in between you got all your tools and systems and results. But it starts with great people. And it ends with a great product. You know, they kind of bound the problem there. And I don't know too many industries that wouldn't start like that, you know, we need great people. And what are those great people? Well, they're the ones that want to improve. And because they're doing it, they can demonstrate to others, in several ways coach and develop them to do it. And what are they striving for? Well, we need to get short term and long term results, you got to do both. So it's kind of like a big challenge in industry, especially everywhere, it doesn't matter. But we got the quarter crunch, the year end, you know, we got to make our numbers all the time, I just remember that the nightmare I was in, when I worked at New Flyer Industries, which ultimately ended up going bankrupt or taken over whatever. But it was a nightmare. We owed all our suppliers, like a lot of our suppliers, tons of money 120 million past 90 days. So it was like crazy, that's the way to run a business is to try to start a bus so you can get a progress payment, and then pay for parts on the buses that are in the yard. So you can actually get them shipped to the customer. So the challenge is applying lean is like an exercise in futility. What we got is great people, and we got to get those results. So we kind of nailed it. And Toyota went bankrupt way back in the 50s. So that's where, you know, they kind of learned their lesson. That's why they have a big bank account. Tim 31:57The big question that's left is you think about your journey through and how your thinking and your and your application. And your focus has evolved. When you think about that leadership experience that you're now focused on the other part of that Gallup poll that I thought was really interesting, or sorry, not Gallup poll, but their their recent publication was, they had said, They figure 10% of the population has the DNA of a leader, the ability to actually, you know, operate in them. And I my hypothesis is, it's actually smaller, because although they may start with 10%, only a fraction of that, I like to say 6% have the opportunity to lead or have not incurred other baggage, or something that will take them out of the mix, or don't have a personal situation that wouldn't allow them to do that, or haven't suffered trauma that wouldn't allow them to do that. So when you look at the leadership experience, and as you watch the leaders that you're working with, really grasp these concepts and then apply them and become higher and higher performing. What do you think the key, in your experience, what are the key mindsets? As I say, you know, you've talked about the five principles, what are some of the watershed moments that you see with leaders where they, you know, a light bulb goes on? And, and it clicks and they really get something? Could you share some thoughts on that? In terms of what are some of those big pivot points? George 33:32Yeah. Okay, I'm not sure they're big pivot points. This is part of the problem. Tim 33:34Sure. George 33:45The problem is we have a lot of little pivot points, which end up making a lot of big change at the end of the day. Tim 33:48Great, perhaps, what are some of the common little pivot points? George 33:50Yeah, so, number one, when I look at leaders getting excited, I think about why are they getting excited? It's because you've pointed out something, whether it's through your book or what have you. It's something that they did not expect. Okay, here's what they expected. And they got something else, there's a gap between what they expected and what they got. That gap is called learning. And as soon as you can increase the learning for that leader, they get hooked. It is the adrenaline, it's the dopamine that you know, gets released in your head. As soon as they do that, they get hooked. So one of one of my students in Germany, she was, I can't remember how we got to this. We were talking about a book called The Power of Habit or something. And I said, Look, a company is made up of habits. So tell me the behavior you would like to see. Tell me what the trigger is and how do you make sure that trigger happens? Because you got to have a trigger. You know, and then you can do the routine was the behavior and you need to kind of reinforce for yourself that that was a good thing to do. And you reinforce it in many ways. So she was, I want to make my bed every morning. I don't know why maybe she heard it and you know, they do it in the army and stuff. Okay, I want to make my bed every morning. So I said, Great. Let's talk a little bit about the trigger. So the trigger is, okay, I'm not gonna have my coffee. I'm gonna get up, I'm gonna put my clothes on, I'm gonna put my slippers on or whatever she's doing. There's a trigger somewhere for her to make her bed. Good. Then she makes the bed. And I said, what's the reward? And she struggled. We have a hard time programming our own thinking to say this is successful. And I said, Okay, I think in the book, they talked a little bit about somebody going on the sheets, just straightening out the sheets. And that felt good. I think it was a  Febreeze thing. I mean, they did that as a reward. And I thought, Okay, why don't you try that. And she says, George, it worked the next day. It worked. I can't believe it. Specifically thinking about the reward. I did this on the bed, and it smoothed out. And I felt good. I smiled. Well, okay, good. The smile is the reward too. So we have a hard time building in new habits that we know we need to have. Because we don't understand that we need a trigger. We need to do the routine because you know, it's important. And we need to create that little reward. And after that becomes a habit, you're done. You're done. Because every time today, when I go into a meeting, I always ask, what's the purpose? And what's the desired outcome of that meeting? I always ask it's a habit for me. And at the end, I always say it's time for Hansha, which is Japanese for reflection. Okay, what went well, during this meeting? What can we do better? How do we build that in for next time, and we improve our meetings each time. So that's just my meeting routines. But the habits make the difference. And so when I start with somebody, what, what we're doing is we're learning. And when we're learning, I'm saying, Are you satisfied with everything? You know, the way life is? Or would you like to improve something? And of course, we bring up the Taiichi Ohno no problem is the biggest problem of all? Yeah, okay, if you're, if you don't have a problem you want to fix then then I'm really no good to you. But let's, let's fix something, let's break it up, let's make sure we have little habits that we put together, maybe that'll create a routine, maybe that falls into a system that we built for you. Okay, so this is excellent when they can see how all this comes together. And they're excited about it, and then they transfer it to others. So I just think it's those little learning bits that make all the sense in the world. Tim 38:00Well, there's one other thing that you said there that I think I like to just stop on. And that's for your students that you talked to make the bed and then smooth out the sheets. And take a moment to reflect that you did this and that you're enjoying it and that the smile is the reward. You had said earlier that it's really important to, you know, go to the Gemba. And that being get into the students mind and understand what they're starting with. Right, this kind of thing. And I think it's a really interesting concept to say, maybe that going to the Gemba is getting into our own mind for a minute. And just stop for a second. And appreciate why you appreciated the reflection again, but saying, hey, you know, understand what you're out for here and understand what you just created for yourself. And take a moment, I used to be a chef. I was so I was a I was a classically trained chef, before I went back to business school. And what's the most important thing that a chef can do throughout that, that experiences if you're not tasting, you're not in control of the process? You have to stop and enjoy. Your own soup for a minute, if you're going to truly understand is it ready to go out? You have to look at it and say is this beautiful? What I just created here? You have to take a moment. And I think that's also part of sort of empathy when we're dealing with other people see it from their perspective. Appreciate it for a moment for what it is take a moment to be there with the person but you know, and this is where I'm like be there for a moment with yourself because I'm I was always really bad at that. I would do something meaningful. And I would steamroll right past it. Right. I wouldn't take praise for it. I wouldn't. Very bad at saying You're welcome. These kinds of things. You have to take a moment and say we just did something for a minute here, let's just put pause and realize, we got to the milestone we thought we were gonna get it because that gives us fuel for the next time we make the push. And the next time we do the next piece of effort, George 40:09That's called celebration, but we have to celebrate. Yeah. And being grateful. Look, that's all preparing your mind. And that's preparing yourself to be a better person, which you can then translate to others. So all of this is all teachings that you can apply to work. The customer, really, we got to turn this into value-added, we've run a business, we can't go home and say, Hey, I did this, I smoothed my bed. And now I want you to pay more for that product. No. So all of this is part of the little steps that it takes for them to say, Hey, I did this at home. Why can I do this at work? What's wrong with doing five paths? In a way, where there's a trigger? Five minutes before the end of the shift? Everybody does a five-minute 5S and we give each other a high five before we leave nothing wrong? Unless you're in COVID times, then maybe it's an elbow bump, you know? Tim 41:16Yeah. Well, it's been really enlightening to hear your perspectives on this stuff. And I hope we can do it again, because I'm having a lot of fun. And I'm learning through this conversation. So thank you very much for that. I want to make sure that people know how they can get involved with your thinking, how you'd like to be contacted, if somebody is inspired to reach out. George 41:38So my name is George Trachilis, they can go to georgetrachilis.com, they can contact me if they want to talk to me, or, you know, book me for a meeting and my calendars right there. That's the best way. Also, there's resources like the Harada Method I mentioned, you can go to finditgeorge.com, which is a great place that I'm building up now. And anybody can type something like A3, and they will have examples of A3s there. But if you type Harada, you'll get the five, five worksheets to use in the Harada Method. If you buy the book, I don't have anything to do with the book. But I promote the book. And those five worksheets are in there. So type Harada and download them for free. Tim 42:32Great, we'll make sure to put those links in the show notes so that everybody has quick access to them. One piece of advice from George Trachilis. George 42:40Yeah, and you know what I put it as a quote on my website, too. I've been where you are Tim, and I thought I've got so much to offer. You know, these executives, they just, sometimes they just don't see what I see. The key is to have an open enough relationship with these people where you can ask a question, and you ask a question to learn. And you can ask a question to teach. And in those situations, you're going to have to ask a question to teach, you're gonna have to figure out what that question is, that will allow you to not be offensive. Because Lord knows we can be offensive in what we're asking, and come across in a way that's very respectful, but gets your point across. But it's a question. They don't have to answer it. So many times. They're thinking short-term. And the question can simply be, are we thinking about the long term and the ramifications of doing this? Six months from now, versus what we get today? So, you know, I my quote was always just ask questions. Sooner or later, you'll become a teacher. Tim 43:56Once again, hey, thank you for for doing this. It was fantastic to spend some time with you. And we'll do it again. I'll talk to you real soon. Thank you so much for listening to Sweet on Leadership.

What do people commonly compliment you on? Because probably that's something that people know you for. And you might not even have an opportunity to recognize that until you work with a resume writer or a coach, somebody who makes you stop and say, Oh, huh, that does sound a bit like a system I'm might have been using all along, and I didn't even recognize it.Tim 0:26  I'd like to ask you some questions. Do you consider yourself the kind of person that gets things done? Are you able to take a vision and transform that into action? Are you able to align others towards that vision and get them moving to create something truly remarkable? If any of these describe you, then you my friend, or a leader, and this show is all about and all for you. This is the Sweet on Leadership Podcast, episode 12.Tim 0:57  Thanks very much for joining us. We're having a good time here in the studio, I'm joined by my really good friend Claire. If you need to find her on LinkedIn, you're going to find her under Claire M. Davis at Traction Resume. But Claire, thank you so much for joining me today. I know it's a little short notice. But I am absolutely ecstatic, we were able to pull this together. Claire  1:16Oh, my goodness, me too, Tim, this is just our way, I don't know if anybody had the chance to catch Tim on my podcast last year. But you're an absolute gem, you have so much to share. And I think that now this will be our third impromptu podcast recording together. So I'm thrilled Tim  1:32We're getting up there. And if it's not our third, it will be soon. You know, it's funny that we come from such different angles professionally. You, of course, are helping people really get prepped to find their next best role and enhance their careers. And while I do the same thing, I come from a slightly different angle, and that is leadership, consulting and coaching. But we have a lot in common because the challenges that people are facing today are really similar. And there's some themes emerging. Wouldn't you say?Claire  2:02Yeah, I would say and you know, when I first started my business, and for anyone who we haven't met yet, I'm Claire Davis, and I run Traction Resume. So essentially what I do is work with professionals in the medical sales industry, and help them to come across as how brilliant they are in real life on paper. So, what I didn't recognize would be part of the role when I very first started this company, was that there would be so much coaching to help people to really foster what leadership and core morals look like for them. On the inside. I really thought, Tim, that it would be, hey, everybody kind of knows their Northstar. They've got their why down pat, they know what their their core drivers really are. And I get to just put that on paper. But a large part is finding out those things as well. So I am eternally grateful for specialized coaches like you, because you help people figure out that internal stuff, and then we put it on paper to share that with the world. Unknown Speaker  3:04  I mean, the more I work, and as I'm entering now, what I'm two and a half decades into doing work with leaders. And you know, I'm just convinced every day that fluency is at the heart of everything they have to know themselves before they can properly represent what they're ready to be out in the world. And if they can be that honest self, when they take the job, through the interview process, into taking the job and then with their teams. It's just so much easier. And it's so much more authentic. And it's the easiest way to build trust, because you don't have to put it on. It's you're just ready to do it all day every day. Because guess what, you don't have a choice. That's who you are in the wool. So I'm with you 100%. I mean, getting people to the point where they are ready to put it down on paper is such a big step. Claire 3:59It really is.Time 4:00Even if they're gonna stay where they're at. It's better to be dealing in reality, because otherwise the universe is going to give you a smack. Let's avoid that at all costs. Claire  4:08 Yeah. Tim 4:09Well, as we were getting ready to hit record here, we were talking about a couple of different things regarding personal brand. But I'd like to get your thoughts on, really what does that look like from an importance perspective, both in you know, medical sales, but also more generally, just for anybody that's in the middle of a career pivot. What does that look like on the outside? Claire 4:32 So back in 20—Oh, I'm going to date myself here about about 10-15 years ago, you know, I was entering into the workforce into my chosen field, which was, at the time, marketing. And I had come up in the ranks through my career from a pharma recruiting business with my parents. So, you know, the career conversation for me was always something that was very familiar. So the shock was that after my first job, which I had the degree for, I had been getting great results from my employer. The job comes along, it lasts about six months, and then I get laid off. And I was absolutely floored Tim, because learning how to interview from age 13, and being the only one coming up to the city volunteer job with a brag book, I really thought I had any kind of career snags, you know, completely wiped out. Right. So huge shock. So I get back into the field. The next job I have is where I enter into medical sales and absolutely love it, start doing well in the field, start getting great mentorship, falling in love with healthcare, and helping people with their health. And a year and a half later and get laid off again. And so the reason I'm sharing this story was fast forward, I did not realize until the third layoff, so another one after this, that people wanted to do business with me, not because of my product or service, but they actually wanted to do business with me, because of me. But I didn't recognize it that way until that next job comes along. And again, another layoff and I get this phone call, Tim, it was one weekend, I remember sitting in our little farmhouse out in Penryn, California at the time. And I get this call from the lab and the lab director says Claire, we are completely out of kits, we need to run this diagnostic test for this breast cancer patient. She she needs this stuff right away, can you help us? And I said, well, I mean, absolutely. But I mean, you know, I don't work for that company anymore. I'm more than happy to help you. But also, I know that I introduced you to your new rep. So I'm curious why, you know, also you reached out to me. And by this time, I already have the kid on the way. So I mean, it was help and then question. And my thought was, you know, he knows I'm not there anymore. But what is it about still wanting to work with me? And he said, well, Claire, we just know that wherever you're at, even if it's not the company where you used to work that you would help us. And I think that was the first time I recognize that me-ness that I had in my impact on other people. And it was the first time that I started to realize that I had value to offer, aside from what my nametag read. And aside from what Title I had business, and aside from what company and what product I was carrying in my bag. And so I think to your question, beginning to understand the value that we have, is the very first step. And I don't think that we often have the opportunity to do that, until maybe we take a retreat with the team, you know, a year and a half into our employment, or maybe just maybe we have an amazing leadership coach brought into the organization to start digging up some of those internal things. But for me, it was quite a surprise. So I'm actually curious, when did you start recognizing that it was going to take the internal work in the internal discovery to start bringing out the external results?Tim  8:15  In others or in myself?Claire  8:17In yourself.Tim  8:18  Sure. Well, before I tell you that, I want to say what a great story that is, and how much I want the people that are listening to really key in to some of the important parts of that. And that is, you know, we often think that we're the sum of our education or our work experience or everything that would typically be on a resume or on a LinkedIn profile, at least traditionally. And what we're discovering more and more is our reach is not defined necessarily by just our expertise and our qualifications. But that we're showing up as an individual that people want to understand the story of and want to know how they got there, just like you're asking me, and we're talking about this now. I was just going to drop that there was a really interesting stat that came out that when they were talking about how LinkedIn controls its algorithm. It's not looking for subject evidence that a person has a certain degree or education they're looking for, are they talking in the context of their profession? when they're talking casually, and they're talking about their family and can they and is this a real person? And so that realness I think is so important. And to answer your question, the watershed moment for me, was about 2006 - 2007 and I was working with a plumbing HVAC company. And I'd done a lot of good work with them. We redesigned their inventory systems. This is when I was more operationally focused, I did a bunch of coaching for them. But there was a lot of hard operational work that went into turning this multigenerational company into a company that was full of trust and excitement, and teaching a lot of old dogs new tricks. I remember we had a senior stock guy that was well into his 60s. And then everybody thought, you know, he was sort of was his way or the highway, this guy took up what I was teaching around, how are we going to lower that sunk cost of rolling stock in their trucks, and we lowered it from like, 300,000, average, per truck, down to 14,000, which is a huge savings when you're not talking about having a bunch of parts, just rolling around the city and getting obsolete. Anyway, long story short, I did all this hard work. And then I left. And about a year, year and a half later, I got a call saying we have a conflict, we have a real problem with an employee, somebody, somebody was hurt, they fell, they got hurt on the job site. And we don't understand why. And they're not really willing to talk to us. But we need to get to the bottom of it. And we suggested that we talked, they talked to an HR person or somebody that we could bring in that was independent, and yours was the name that came up. And we want you to come in and and I said, well, I'm not in the HR field. I'm not a, I'm not, this is not the type of work that I do. I mean, I've done it, I've done readiness for work, but as a manager, and they said, no, we'd really like you to come up. So I checked with my lawyer, everything made sure I was clear. And I got in the car and I rolled up, it was about, you know, two hours out of town. And I get to this, this company, I sat down with this gentleman. And it was a hard story. There was an issue with pain, and there was an issue with medication management. And he was not fit for work. Period. And I had to tell the people that trusted me to bring them this, that that was my conclusion. That wasn't what they wanted to hear. It's what they needed to hear. And so why I thought that was important is because although I was safe to weigh an opinion in and I was ultimately, you know, reasonably qualified for what they were asking me to do, the biggest thing was, they trusted who I was, and then I could hold the trust of these people on both sides of both management and the workforce fence. And everybody was happy with, well, everybody was satisfied and felt complete. And to me, that was a huge moment that said, this had nothing to do with what I know, other than some experience doing it some common sense and, you know, basic management principles and things like this. But I wasn't an expert in that field. It was who I was, and who I had meant to these people and the trust that I had garnered earlier. Thanks for asking, I didn't really expect my story to be in the middle of this. But you know, yeah, that really would, would probably be the moment. And then it became clearer and clearer when I went in. And I designed great, designed good processes, I was running Enterprise Risk Portfolios and things like this, but it always boil down to leadership. And leadership always boil down to character. And when I teach brand, both for teams and individuals, I like to say: don't confuse brand with marketing. We can talk about it that way. But it's not just the font and the color. You can say anything on a piece of paper. But what do people experience? And so if you're going to put something down on on a piece of paper, it better be the same thing they experience, because that's truly your brand. The moment they experience you, any words you put down on paper are secondary. But from a resume perspective, to say it that way, they better be consistent, right? Claire  13:44Yes, absolutely. And one of the many things I've learned from you is the flow state that you often talk about. And so I feel that if someone is to trust you to that point, right, so when they experience you after reading your resume, they know they're not getting catfished because Tim is exactly what we expect, right?Tim  14:11Well, sometimes.Claire  14:12  You're exactly who I expected. When I got to know you on LinkedIn. I wasn't shocked, necessarily. I was delighted. But I wasn't shocked that you were who I had experienced through your marketing, and then aligned with who you are really, and who your real brand really represents. Right. I wasn't shocked that you were who I thought you were. But I think that it takes a level of that trust that you build to give people the confidence to say, look, we need this thing done. And we know that it's not necessarily your specialty. But we believe in we trust you. And we know you. And so we are comfortable with saying, Tim, please help us get in the flow. And then you learn from there. Tim  14:55Yeah. Well, I think that's, that's important. And I'm gonna throw it back at you, sorry, but I got to do this because it's funny. When I talk to my, when I talk to the people that help me with production and social media and those kinds of things. And we're talking just, just last week, we were talking about a carousel post something simple on LinkedIn, when we talk about, you know, part of the things that have to carry, carry us and yes, it was my brand, but she said, you know, what do you like? And I said, go to Claire Davis's page and take a look. I'm serious. And not a word of a lie. And I will, and again, not to pump your tires too much. But I mean, for people again, go to Claire's page. And see because the thing is, is it's it's professional and slick, but it's also you, like through and through. And you go for the carousel posts stay for the Claire. That's what I would say to everybody out there. Claire  15:47That's gonna be my new tagline, Tim, thank you. You're hired.Tim 15:50  Better than a breath of fresh Claire, we could say. No, sorry. No, but I mean, seriously, like, as you know, and you've helped me suss this out. I work with a lot of linear thinkers and a lot of engineers. And I remember, oh, man, it must have been 11-12 years ago, and I was working with a group in a mega project. Somebody came up to me afterwards. Hey, man, that was awesome. Because I had done this collaboration session between competitors. And they said that man, you sure sneak up on people. And I said, What? And he's like, we had no idea who you were or what you were about to do to us. And I'm quite comfortable in the nebulous, right. But as a comment, they said, just so you know, engineers, geologists, scientists, whatnot, we're pretty linear, for the most part. And we really like it when you tell us what you're about to do. And maybe even risk spoiling the surprise a little bit. But don't try to pull back the punch line. So now, I mean, I think I'm kind of message forward with everything. They're gonna figure it out anyway. And I'd rather not surprise them, so. Claire  16:59Oh, yeah, absolutely. Well, and you know, I think, I don't know if you know, this, but I have a degree in advertising, from Ohio University, Go Bobcats. If there's any Bobcats out there, there you go. And, you know, when we were coming through and earning that degree, a lot of what we learned was that being clever was part of the job. And now there's something to be said about people who can bring levity to a message and really, you know, kind of zag when people zig and so on and so forth. But sometimes, if we're a little bit too clever, or if we sacrifice clarity for cleverness, it can get lost, it can get lost just as ambiguity can and something I see commonly with resumes. What I find is people are usually very nervous to speak about the specifics that they know that they are good at, because they feel that the industry expects them to use certain words and to use certain ways of putting things so that they will look prestigious on paper. But what happens is, everybody ends up saying the same thing. While I'd love to say there were like magic power words, right? Let's list some right now: experienced, team player, market disrupter, okay, those are have already been overused. And instead, a large part of what we do at Traction Resume is that we help people to recalibrate and understand what are those specific things that you're known for doing? What do people commonly comment or compliment you on Tim? Because probably, that's something that people know you for. And you might not even have an opportunity to recognize that until you work with a resume writer, a coach, a storytelling strategist, somebody who makes you stop and say, Oh, ha, there is a through line. And I'll be darned, that does sound a bit like a system I might have been using all along and I didn't even recognize it, but that's who you are. Claire  19:03You nailed it, which is why I mean, I really appreciate you as a peer mentor, like I do. Like I'm just coming up on the anniversary of this double knee surgery, right. And I think I told you the story where there was a really essential piece of work that I had to do and I ended up doing it the day after I got home from the hospital, in my bed, marathon two nine-hour day virtual sessions. The second one after sitting too long. The first day was 100% from my back with my laptop propped up and you know, so that they're looking down on me as I'm resting my head. Oh, and my knees are up in the air with ice packs on them. But I got such a nice compliment from one of the people coming out of that session. And he said, you know, you've got this way of, of making sure that everybody's voice is heard, and everybody feels listened to in the room, and you always find a way to make space for everybody to get their thoughts out. And I never thought about that at all, as being something that I was able to do. But it's 100% core to my process. And it's also core to me individually, because, you know, from an empathetic perspective, I hate to feel like, just because you're introverted, or you're taking time to process what you're listening to, you're not getting your point across, because meetings aren't always built for everybody in the room. So from that perspective, and as you say that I'm like, You know what, I haven't even put that on my resume yet, or my profile. I've never really, I think I put the quote on my LinkedIn or something at one point. But as you say that I've never actually connected those dots till right now that that was meaningful for that, for that reason. So thanks for that, of course. And you know, what I find most often, especially with people who have been in business for a while, and even not in business, it doesn't matter if you're in business necessarily to recognize this. But what I find is what is most familiar and natural for us what is just something we do so naturally, we would never even recognize it as quote-unquote special is exactly what is so remarkable to other people about us. It's like our mundane is remarkable to others. I remember, I was talking with my husband a long time ago about cooking. And I learned everything that I know about cooking from his mother, as far as it comes from a recipe and she was this incredible chef, baker, she could make absolutely anything people would come from literally for miles to join us for dinner at her house. And so she taught me everything that I knew about cooking from a recipe. So one day, we're in the kitchen, and you know, we're talking about what we're going to make, and we didn't happen to have the things for the recipe, my husband and I, and his mother. And so I look in the fridge and I, I kind of just look at the chaos that's going on in there. You know, we've got like three jars of pickles, we've got like a couple of things a tuna and like a couple of and I go well, we can make a pretty decent casserole. And both of them are like, I'm sorry, what? Like, like a casserole? And I was like, like, if you connect these dots and so on, this might work and that's kind of a vinegary thing. And, you know, and it'll make sense, you know, that all the chaos will make sense. And both of them stopped in their tracks like, okay, okay, well, let's try it, you know, but I was so used to, I think cobbling together. Because we didn't do a lot of recipes growing up, that for me, I am very much like an order out of chaos type. But I never looked at myself that way until a little things like that will come up or someone will tell me. Someone will get on a phone with me before we write their resume. And we'll talk for two hours and they will throw every detail from when they were 25 and on at me. And we will talk through everything. Time  23:03And you take the chaos and you make it clear.Claire  23:06  And they they often even apologize. Hey, oh my gosh, I'm so sorry. I was rambling. And I'm like, no, no, no, that's the good stuff. The stuff you don't think is like mind blowing, is what people often miss about themselves. That's so incredible. But it's hard when you're so used to doing things one way you don't recognize it as significant. Tim  23:28So Claire Davis takes a messy career pantry turns it into an amazing resume casserole.Claire 23:38  Exactly. That makes that gets you a job.Tim  23:42 That gets you a job. A three star Michelin casserole. Claire 23:44Exactly. Thank you.Tim 23:45With nothing but Ritz crackers. And, and well, no, it's got to have more than Ritz crackers and a can of tuna but no, that's great. And it's funny because so I don't know if you knew this but I mean, I was a professional chef for a number of years. Claire  23:49Oh gosh. So this is you shaking your head.Tim  24:06  No, no, I love it. No, I'm I love we used to call it in the kitchen, the Jesus Christ factor not to be sacrilegious, but to say that this is a person that can turn water into wine. Claire  24:17I love it. Tim  24:18And you often face those things where something doesn't turn out and you have to make it work. And I remember going through my classical chef training and there were there were three masters. There was Escoffier which which the American School teaches and there was (Richard) Hering which was slightly different approach which are, er, which was a German original master. And that's the school that I trained under in Alberta here because we had a lot of Swiss German and Austrian chefs we were working with. And among the the Masters, there was a book by Saulnier, called The Repertoire. And the difference between those three books is that Sony just told you what the ingredients were no levels, no preparations, the book was tiny. And it expected, because you were creative, and flexible, and knew the basics about how all the ingredients work together, that you'd be able to figure it out. And it was an amazing book, it says the rest of the books are quite thick. And Saulnier was just this tiny little thing, and it would just say, Okay, we're going to make this classical dish, here's the six ingredients. And that was it.Claire  25:30Period. Wow.Tim  25:33 Period. Good luck. But the thing is, is that, that when you think about it, you never know exactly the nuances of what you're dealing with. And so, you know, balance, and composure and your back to flow. Right? When you're talking about that. There's the creative anxiety that has to be there, the excitement and the ability to take something, and then the ability to turn that into something digestible, and the control that's needed. What do I do with it? How do I form it up? How do I make it useful? And so a balance between those two things, right, the chaos and the order, very, like really, really important, and in a way, so much more dynamic. And it has so much more potential than starting, you know, paint by number, which is like rounding around to the original part. And maybe this is a great place for us to begin to wrap up and maybe consider where we go next conversation. Is that the resumes, as you said, originally, they can't be formulaic. And they can't be so traditional, because we've gone the route of painting by number, and it puts you into the hopper with a bunch of other people that look pretty similar to you. Not a lot of differentiation. So maybe part of brand is embracing the chaos. And getting through the messy stuff. I love this thought of like brand casserole. Wow.Claire  26:58  And maybe a little Jesus Christ moment on top. You know, all you need is a little help.Tim  27:04  A little help, But I mean, and that's the thing. Why? Why do we need help? Well, if we're in a project, if we're in a project, we need a lot of different personalities or workstyles. To bring that project home, we need the deep thinkers, and the inventors and we need the people who can tell what's a good idea and what's a bad idea. And we need those people that are going to connect the dots, we need those people that are going to bring the essentials to making it happen. And then we need those people that are actually going to bring it home and produce that thing. And anything we do that's of consequence and worth has all of that it's rare that a single person, let alone the person from the inside the, the applicant can do that fairly for themselves. It takes an outside view to become fluent. So anyway, I'm excited by this, the casserole, so we could maybe next time and maybe not too long, we should really try to find time. I know it's summer, but let's let's go for it. Let's talk about some of that internal journey and some of that chaos and dealing with it. And then also maybe some of the fear that stops people in their tracks for for saying you know what? You got pickles. Got some tomato paste. This could work.Claire  28:15There's a caper.Tim  28:16A caper. You know, we're either going to have, we're going to have a casserole or we're going to have some warm antipasto. So, let's, let's make this happen. All right.Claire  28:25Yeah. Also, now I'm hungry.Tim  28:28  Final thoughts there, Claire?

Liberalism vs Conservatism – Which Offers the Better Model for Society?

In this episode, we explore the two great movements of the political right - liberalism of the right and conservatism. They are such different political philosophies, yet they share the same bed, uneasily much of the time, in right wing politics. By liberalism, we mean the political philosophy that champions individual rights and freedoms, private property and equality before the law. It's linked with the rise of democracies and of capitalism, replacing social structures defined by hereditary, class and gender privilege as well as the divine right of kings. Today, liberalism crosses over the left and the right of politics in most western countries. The left leaning or progressive liberals focus most heavily on the equality side, ensuring that people are not just treated equally under law but that the race itself is fair. Liberalism of the right however, the one we're focused on in this episode, is much more concerned with individual freedoms, individual responsibility, property rights and equality before the law. It wants to ensure that, wherever you start the journey of life, you are given the opportunity to succeed based on your merit and ambition. The other great movement of the right, conservatism, is in one sense a stance, an attitude that is suspicious of change and asks us to proceed with caution, knowing that social order is easy to break and hard to build. But it's also a political philosophy that values traditions, customs, a common moral code, authority, loyalty to community and country, focusing on duties rather than rights. The purpose of this episode is to explore these two great movements of the political right, which clash and crash into each other, competing for dominance, as we look at which one offers the best model for society. Our two guests are Tim Wilson MP and Gray Connolly. Tim Wilson is a Federal Liberal Member in the Australian Parliament and is Chair of the House of Representatives Standing Committee on Economics. He was formerly Australia's Human Rights Commissioner. Tim is a strong advocate for protecting free speech and freedom of religion. His book The New Social Contract; Renewing the Liberal Vision for Australia, passionately champions liberal ideals of the right. Gray Connolly is a Barrister, lectures in Australian Constitutional Law, and has advised the Australian Government on national security matters. He is a Lieutenant Commander in the Royal Australian Navy and has served on deployments all over the world. Gray is a passionate conservative and a frequent conservative panellist for ABC radio and television, as well as publishing articles in various journals. Both Tim and Gray sit firmly within the right rather than the Left of politics. But they advocate for very different models of society. Tim has said that conservatism offers little or nothing to young Australians. And Gray has dismissed liberalism as naïve. But they have great respect for each other in this fascinating conversation. ~~ You can be part of the discussion @PofCharity on Twitter, @PrincipleofCharity on Facebook and @PrincipleofCharityPodcast on Instagram.

Tim & Peter Rausse were involved in the planting and development of the Gabriele Rausse winery beginning early in their youth.  Although Tim went off to school shortly thereafter, he would return and immerse himself in the operation and winemaking and hasn't looked back.  Peter calls himself the unofficial GM these days and recounts in this Episode how his role is to make sure everything at the winery works.  While Tim continues to stay focused on the vineyard and winemaking side of the winery.  Tim's wife is also a winemaker at a Northern Virginia winery and comes from a winegrowing family in the region located in the Southwest region of France that produces Monbazillac.Between the two brothers the winery is in good hands as their Father, Gabriele continues in his day job as the Director of the Gardens and Grounds at Thomas Jefferson's former estate, Monticello which is just up the road from his namesake winery.This is a classic winegrowing family story. HIGHLIGHTS OF THE EPISODE:a). Peter recounts the story Gabriele often tells about when Peter was 3 years-old he once gave a tour to some guests that were visiting what at the time was called Simeon Vineyards. Simeon Vineyards was planted by Gabriele for the Woodward family in the early 1980s. The guests were amazed as he answered all of their questions accurately an indepth. That vineyard is now called Jefferson Vineyards.b). Surprisingly both Tim & Peter did not feel they were necessarily destined to run and operate the winery while growing up.c). Tim tells the story of when they first started to replant the Redlands Vineyard down the road from them how they went about choosing which varietals to put in the ground. There is a funny story surrounding the reasons behind planting Chasselas Dore and then how they figured out to make wine from it that would sell.d). Tim recounts how his wife and Peter came up with the idea of producing a sulfite free wine and the story behind the interesting naming of Vino dal Bosco.e). Both Tim & Peter had fascinating answers to my question about which wine they remember that got them to say, Ah, that is what wine is all about!Much, much more as I capture what it is like to follow in the footsteps of a wine ICON in the Virginia Wine Business.Listen below or read the text transcript

Thousands of people with disabilities go sailing every year and it’s a side of our sport that is growing all the time as people experience a level of freedom and control that can be hard for them to find elsewhere in life. Tim Dempsey and Brendan Tourelle both play major roles in Sailability, the name given to sailing for people with disabilities, and talk in this podcast about who can participate, the technology used, where the sport can take them and what it is even like to get out on the water. Both Tim and Brendan bring plenty of their own experiences, given both are confined to wheelchairs, and tell their vastly different but powerful stories. They also delve into some of their experiences on the international circuit, including Tim’s journey to the 2012 London Paralympics, what the racing scene is like in this country and the chances of sailing being included again on the programme for the Paralympics. Tim and Brendan were open and honest in this podcast but mostly enthusiastic about the possibilities for people with disabilities to get involved in sailing. If you haven’t seen Sailability in action, it can be very inspiring and they’re always looking for more people to get involved.

In this episode of Tart Words, Suzanne Fox and Linda Hengerer are discussing Mary Stewart’s book Airs Above the Ground and how she uses unusual settings, creates vivid animal characters, and shows relationship dynamics.   It was first published in 1965 by Hodder & Stoughton and is now available in ebook editions.  Description from Amazon:Vanessa March's husband Lewis is meant to be on a business trip in Stockholm. So why does he briefly appear in newsreel footage of a fire at a circus in Vienna, with his arm around another woman? Vanessa flies to Austria to find her husband - and inadvertently becomes involved in a mystery surrounding the famous dancing stallions of Austria's Spanish Riding School . . .Takeaways for writers:In Airs Above the Ground, Vanessa March is having lunch with her mother’s friend Carmel, whose son Tim wants to see his father in Vienna. Carmel proposes that Vanessa chaperone Tim when she travels to meet her husband Lewis. Vanessa and Lewis should have been on holiday, but an urgent work assignment came up and Lewis had to postpone the holiday; they had a blazing row that Vanessa regrets. Carmel mentions having seen Lewis in a newsreel about a circus fire near Vienna; after seeing the newsreel herself, Vanessa calls Carmel to say she’ll take Tim with her to Vienna and hand him over to his father. Vanessa and Tim forge an unlikely alliance, and both give each other the courage to continue on their respective journeys. Both Tim and Lewis have secrets that play into the story, as does Vanessa’s background as a vet and Tim’s desire to work with the Lippizaner stallions. As secrets are revealed and surprising skills unveiled, mysteries are solved and relationships are forged.Exercises for writers:Unusual Settings – The circus and the Schloss are not your usual settings; note how Mary Stewart incorporates the unique aspects of each into the story. Whether your settings are unusual or not, how do you use Setting to enhance the story’s narrative? Vivid Animal Characters – Horses play an integral part in Airs Above the Ground. If you have animal characters, either as pets or as a plot point, how do you give them a personality that makes readers believe the animal/character? Think about animals in movies or on television (Beethoven, Lassie) and how they are the focus of the story. Even if your animal character isn’t a large part of the story, what small trait can you give them that will resonate with readers?Relationship Dynamics – Vanessa meets Tim at the airport when Carmel gives him over to Vanessa. Though not far apart in age, they are in experience. How do you introduce characters and give them context for a relationship? In the beginning it doesn’t seem that Vanessa and Tim will spend a lot of time together, but they do; how do you show a growing friendship between characters who would not naturally be friends?

My guests for this episode are folklorists, paranormal researchers and authors Timothy Renner and Joshua Cutchin, who joined me to talk about their new co-written work Where the Footprints End: High Strangeness and the Bigfoot Phenomenon Volume One: Folklore. The book details Tim and Josh’s extensive research exploring the multitude of similarities between Bigfoot encounters and the folklore of other Fortean entities such as Fairies, Aliens, Witches and Ghosts. The connections they have found are numerous, and offer a compelling counterargument to the hypothesis that Bigfoot is simply a flesh and blood creature – an as yet undiscovered great ape, or relic hominid. It’s an exploration into the myriad oddities of the phenomena – the high strangeness mentioned in the title – and has been compared to the work Jacques Vallee has done writing about the true nature of UFOs. Both Tim and Josh have written extensively on a wide range of paranormal topics and are some of the most interesting voices in Fortean research right now, so it was a real treat to get them on the podcast to talk about their latest work.

Today’s guests Tim and Amy Rutherford - currently live a life that embraces travel, a healthy lifestyle and living with purpose.  They host a successful YouTube Channel that follows their journey across the globe.  And they are doing it all as early retirees, in their 40's! THEIR MONEY STORY This wasn’t always their life... In 2014 while traveling - they had an awakening - a realization they were spending their money mindlessly and if they could stop spending so much money - they could realize their dream of retiring early and traveling more.   When they took a really hard look at their spending they found they were wasting over $115,000.00  a year with not much to show for it.  So, they took action.  They reigned in their spending significantly - ramped up their savings...and the result was that Both Tim and Amy were able to retire in their forties!   We are so excited to chat with them today and have them share some of their adventures - but also share with our House of FI Families - some of the actionable ways to get to Financial Independence faster! KEEPING THEIR BUDGET IN CHECK Amy and Tim have become super-savers and one of the best ways they shave money off of their expenses is to drastically cut their food budget.  Tim's tip:  He uses the FLIPP APP This APP is a repository for the grocery ads so you know what is on sale.   The next thing Tim and Amy do is to "shop what's on sale."  They tailor their budget and weekly menus to what is on sale.  From there Amy suggests cooking from home and from scratch as much as possible.   She also suggests subbing in ingredients based upon what is on sale in your recipes.  For example, if a recipe calls for broccoli, but asparagus is on sale - use asparagus instead.  TRAVEL HACKING Tim and Amy host a popular YouTube Channel, GoWithLess. There, they chronical their journeys and the steps they have taken to get to early retirement.  But also, they share their travel tips.  One of the ways Tim and Amy are able to travel so much is that they travel hack, using air miles and hotel/travel miles.  One of the other cool things they are known for is that they use house-sitting and/or pet sitting as a way to minimize their lodging expenses when they travel.   Amy suggests if house sitting or pet sitting is something you are interested in, to start sitting in your area first to build up good reviews and then try out of state and/or country jobs.  The site she uses to find sitting jobs is Trusted House Sitters.  Tim and Amy have a ton of great travel videos on their channel. Two of our favorite videos are a video on packing - Curt and I both need some serious help in this department - and this video has some great tips on packing light.  The other documents a recent trip they took to try out a Dentist in Mexico.  TIM AND AMY ON THE FINAL QUESTIONS Favorite financial lesson, growing up:  Amy shared the lesson she learned was to treasure the experiences. It doesn't take money to build memories.  Tim's favorite life hack is to live as much of their home life as possible when you travel.  For instance, cooking in, instead of eating out.  WHERE CAN YOU FIND TIM AND AMY IF YOU WANT TO LEARN MORE ABOUT THEIR JOURNEY.....

This week on the Podcast, Carl Paoli talks to Tim Stevenson and David “Jacko” Jackson - Founders of The School of Calisthenics. Both Tim and Jacko have a background in rugby. During Tim’s years of playing rugby, he suffered several shoulder dislocations and had two reconstructive surgeries, and Jacko who played professionally for 14 years was forced to retire after suffering numerous head injuries. "Making the impossible possible." - Tim and Jacko After rugby, Tim became a strength and conditioning coach and one day on his quest for finding something that would help keep his shoulder in place and safe, he began to practice handstands. Although humbled by the difficulty of learning how to perform basic gymnastics movements such as a handstand, he fell in love with the process and began sharing what he was learning with his friend Jacko - who at the time had just retired from playing professional rugby and no longer had a purpose for training his body other than for looks. Besides training calisthenics together, Jacko also started shadowing Tim in his strength and conditioning practice. Thanks to Tim’s focus on working with adaptive athletes, Jacko got a chance to quickly develop the ability to coach and develop inclusive and effective progressions to help others improve their physical performance regardless of their background. Since they first met and started practicing calisthenics for fun, Tim and Jacko have made it their profession by founding a wonderful organization called the School of Calisthenics - a digital platform for teaching individuals the foundation of bodyweight training with the intent of making the impossible possible. They also travel and teach in person workshops all over the UK. In this fun and insightful episode, Tim and Jacko share how they first founded and funded the school of calisthenics, what they’ve learned, the mistakes they’ve made along the way, how they made corrections that have allowed them to continue to grow, and what legacy they hope to leave through all of their initiatives.

We're going to be talking about a video by Big Think that tries to understand why evangelicals voted for Donald Trump for president. The man in the video, Reza Aslan, theorizes about several different reasons he believes that evangelicals acted out of character and voted for a man he did not think they would have voted for. Both Tim and I believe this video completely misses the whole reason Donald Trump was elected. It seems to us that Mr. Aslan is reaching for some explanation that is completely unnecessary.

In the 2nd part of our conversation with indie musician Timothy Palmer, we pick up where we left off in the previous episode of The DIY Artist Route Podcast (listen to past episodes and the podcast archive here)Curiosity and questions are the driving force behind some of the best creations on earth.What drives the curiosity engine?Learn how can you strengthen your curiosity to engage with your own ingenuity and creativity to produce your best and most engaging work.When Timothy Palmer isn't making great music he's leading people in a quest for truth and introspection. It turns out that many of the answers we seek externally are found inside us through looking at our experiences and the teachers who have imprinted their brilliance on us.This conversation is an exploration of these elements so that you will take the proactive steps to become more curious about yourself, your relationships, your journey, and the work you produce.One of the key elements that comes up in every conversation I have with Tim is the depth of questions we ask each other.It's what Timothy says inside this conversation when he says,"Especially in the United States, we can't get away from the questions of morality, ethics, politics, or religion. Because even if we are not interested in that, everyone else around us is."Which is a fascinating truth. I don't consider myself to be one who spends much time in politics. Actually I avoid political discourse a lot because of the argumentative nature it has become.As you know, I'm all about harmony, unity, and bringing people together. But Timothy makes some incredible points in this discussion that pertains to this subject because avoiding the discussions that people are having is not a way to bring harmony.What do you think?There are several places in this episode where we ask you to join into the discussion. You can do that through connecting with us both on social media. We'd love to hear your thoughts. Here's where to engage and follow Timothy Palmer:Timothy Palmer on TwitterTimothy Palmer on FacebookExperience an in-depth discussion on the power of curiosity. We also dive into areas involving Fear, being known and the power of love.And we close with a little chit chat on the power of tattoos. Both Tim and I have adorned our bodies with art that represents who we are and what we're all about. Which is another way I'd love to invite you to connect with us. Share your tattoo stories (and pics if you have them) in the comments below or through social media.

Hey Life Athletes, welcome to episode 160 of the Life Athletics podcast! Today’s guest Life Athletes are Tim Stevenson and David Jackson of the School of Calisthenics. Both Tim and David have extensive experience in elite performance strength and conditioning as athletes and coaches. Together, they have come up with a learning platform that utilizes the science of sport, strength and conditioning, physical adaptation and how to practically and systematically apply all of those within the realm of calisthenics.  "We have to accept that failure is not a dirty word." On this episode, Tim and David tackle the hardest part of training and working toward your goal: the fear of failure. They emphasized on how fear was given a negative connotation and that this shouldn't be the case. For young people who are starting to pave their way toward athletic success, this mindset can be quite deterrent. In the School of Calisthenics, they teach students to embrace failure and think of it part of learning. "Failure is when we're learning." The School of Calisthenics is looking forward to joining the International Handstand Day this June 23rd, and they'd love for you to participate too!

On this episode ofSecrets to Real Estate Investing Holly is joined by guest Tim Gordon. Tim quit his job and has been real estate investing for 3 years this week! Holly asks Tim to share the path that led him to real estate investing. Tim shares that he had a variety of jobs before he became a full-time real estate investor; his favorite being the garden shop at Kmart. Tim came to California in 2008 with a his window tinting business, when he realized that wasn’t going to be something that worked out longterm he knew he needed to start to look elsewhere. A girl he was dating at the time introduced him to real estate investing. While the relationship didn’t work out it did lead Tim to the real estate path.  Holly asks Tim to share with listeners what kind of deals he started out with when he got into real estate investing and Tim shares that he started out with Bigger Pockets. After Bigger Pockets he started attending to the investment clubs which soon lead him to wholesaling for 3 to 4 years while he was also working full-time. Tim shares that the first year he started wholesaling he wasn’t very successful at it. In the beginning Tim was looking for deals of the MLS, going off of referrals and even working off of other people’s deals but found that those methods didn’t produce many deals. Tim discovered that by using direct mail marketing he was able to find more deals. Today Tim does not use direct mail marketing to get his deals but this is because he does not do a lot of wholesaling. Holly asks Tim how much he was spending on direct marketing and he says that he was spending about 4 to 5 thousand dollars a month - which could produce deals that were $5,000 to $50,000 wholesale. Tim shares the best wholesale deal that he ever had which happened a few years ago that he and a partner made over beers at a hotel lobby.  Holly asks Tim to share what it felt like to quit his job to work in real estate investing full-time. Tim shares that it was terrifying because he didn’t have the confidence as some other people do when it came to quitting his job. Tim shares that when he was working in the corporate world he had a job that was basically set up nicely for him; he had health insurance, a company car, nearly 6-figure a year income - but he knew that he needed to quit. Tim also shares that he has set up a business that he pays himself out of every two weeks with direct deposits so that he has the same sort of structure a corporate job would offer and this structure allows him to not stress out about where his pay is coming from as well as not spending more money from the business than he has already allowed himself.  Holly and Tim talk about how mindset is everything in the real estate business. Tim says that he can tell when meeting someone he can tell within a year whether or not they will do a deal based on their attitude during their interaction. Tim says that he can tell within the first minute of meeting someone whether or not they are ‘all in’ or not. Both Tim and Holly agree that real estate investing is a team sport. Without the support system and networks that real estate clubs offer some deals might not even be possible. Holly shares that she has put together a Facebook group for the purpose of networking and to help other post and find deals. You can find this group on Facebook at www.facebook.com/groups/hhhreit/ Holly asks Tim to share a deal that he did with a FHA 203K loan. Tim shares that he likes talking about this deal the most but it seems to get the least amount of attention. At the time of this deal Tim was still working in the corporate world and he needed to get a loan. At the time before this deal took place Tim knew that he wanted to find a deal that was a 4-unit apartment anywhere in San Diego county and a house in Oceanside. When he was searching for his wishlist someone came to him with exactly what he was looking for. T
