In this episode, Mayhew explores one of the most powerful concepts in personal growth: the space between stimulus and response. Drawing on Viktor Frankl's timeless wisdom, he unpacks why so many men live on emotional autopilot - reacting instantly to stress, conflict, pressure, criticism, and uncertainty - and how meditation can help you regain control over your mind, emotions, and behaviour. If you've ever snapped too quickly, overthought a situation for hours, or felt trapped inside your own head, this conversation will give you a completely different perspective.Make the change and book a call with Adam Smith: https://calendly.com/adamsmith-agameconsultancy/meeting-with-adam-smith-a-gameEmail Us: hello@agameconsultancy.comAdam SmithFrom depressed and suicidal to the happiest and fittest he's ever been, Adam Smith's self-development journey hasn't been easy but it has been worth it.

Rowan Childs - Madison Reading Project On Building Up Youth: "We want to make sure every kid is excited and sees themselves on the cover or as the main character." Often we take the skills we have for granted. We want this and that, but rarely take the time to have gratitude for all that we have. I'm not talking material things, I am speaking of opportunities and education. As business owners, we know how to read. Did you know that many children have challenges achieving the literacy needed to understand the other subjects in school? Rowan Childs saw this need and built a non-profit to help children get access to books to read. Not just any books. These are books that kids want to read. Madison Reading Project is a non-profit that offers free books and literacy resources to children to ignite a love of reading. The beautiful thing is Madison Reading Project has blossomed from a small startup to a non-profit that continues to serve thousands of books to children. This is truly an amazing success story and a story that is making the world a better place. Enjoy!

Downloadable audio episodes can be found in the podcast link found at https://drawincustomers.com. We are locally underwritten by the Bank of Sun Prairie, and today we are welcoming, slash, preparing to learn from Rowan Childs of Madison Reading Project. Rowan, I'm super excited to be here. Rowan Childs [00:00:32]: Thank you. Welcome. James Kademan [00:00:34]: This is amazing. We got. I mean, people can see we got whatever, 5 billion books behind us and all that stuff. So tell us the story. What is Madison Reading Project? Rowan Childs [00:00:44]: Yeah. So we are a nonprofit. We provide all kinds of literacy resources, whether they are physical books, digital resources, and our wonderful stuff. We're here to support adults and children in support of them learning how to read in support of them re engaging or engaging in reading and love of books, ultimately to help raise literacy rates in Dane county and now just in Sauk county as well. Yes. That's a brand new thing. James Kademan [00:01:27]: Wow. Rowan Childs [00:01:27]: Yeah. James Kademan [00:01:28]: All right. Rowan Childs [00:01:29]: But we're really here to make sure that kids have their books and to help remove some of those barriers that they have. So whether it's been from the very beginning through what we do today, we do that in a way more sophisticated way than how we started, but it really is to try and provide really high quality materials that children and adults can keep. So we want to make sure that kids are excited about the books and about reading and that they ultimately are inspired to want to hang on to those and to continue to read and love books. James Kademan [00:02:08]: Nice. I love it. I love it. It's so interesting because when you give me address to the place, I just follow gps. And I was like, it's just going to be some warehouse or something like that. But this is a very bright. It's vibrant, it's welcoming. It's not just some dingy, like, there's the books in the back kind of thing. Rowan Childs [00:02:25]: Not at all. James Kademan [00:02:25]: So this is cool. This is very nice. Rowan Childs [00:02:28]: Good. That's how we want everyone to feel. James Kademan [00:02:30]: Yeah. I love it. Let's go back to the way back when, when you first started this 12 years ago, you said, yep, that is a while. We got pandemic. We got. Rowan Childs [00:02:41]: Man. James Kademan [00:02:42]: I feel like every few years there's some kind of a crisis. So I don't remember all the crisis we've been through. But what triggered you to start Madison Reading Project? Rowan Childs [00:02:51]: Yeah, I had just helped my own son re engage in reading. He liked reading things at home, but not so much the books that he was reading at school. And after I helped him figure that out, it just got me thinking about what if I hadn't understood the teacher who had messaged me at home? Or what if they hadn't messaged me? It took me some time and resources to figure that out. So I started just researching and couldn't really find what I was looking for, which wasn't necessarily volunteering on helping kids how to read, it was the other piece of it. And so I spent some time interviewing at some schools and some other after school locations and no one really knew of something of what I was describing and eventually had this idea of potentially how I this pilot program idea. But I wanted to find a pilot program location that would be smaller versus starting somewhere that had 200 kids. So I eventually found a program at Salvation army on Darbo drive that had 30 kids. And Zarbo Drive area is a pretty impoverished area. Rowan Childs [00:04:15]: And the director at that time said he was actually trying to help the kids with homework, but they were behind in reading and he was trying to engage kids in reading. So it was this perfect sort of timing. And the week that we met, the Race to Equity report came out, which was a five year data set on everything that you kind of need for the proof of why literacy is so important. So anything on the actual literacy rates of every school in the county, comparing not just districts and schools, but also third grade reading levels, fifth grade high school in poverty rates, and also race, comparing kids who are white and black or Hispanic. And some of the differences not only were maybe 10 or 15%, but some of the schools were up to 40% differences. And that's just heartbreaking. Still, every time I talk about it, it makes me just really sad because if you can't read whether you're in third grade, you. You're just always going to be behind. Rowan Childs [00:05:28]: Ultimately, you might still be able to struggle through school, but what kind of job are you going to be able to get or can even get your driver's license? You know, it's just snowballs from there. James Kademan [00:05:40]: Yeah. Rowan Childs [00:05:42]: And Will, who was the director at the time, was really adamant that if you can't read, it's just going to be a really difficult life or could lead to a life of incarceration. And so the two of us were very passionate about trying to figure something out. And then the last piece was the funding. James Kademan [00:06:05]: It's a pretty big piece, kind of. Rowan Childs [00:06:07]: I had no money to put towards my pilot program. Someone I had mentioned what I wanted to do, said you really need to have the right money to do the pilot program. Correctly. James Kademan [00:06:19]: Thanks. Rowan Childs [00:06:20]: Yes. And wrote me a check for $1,000. Oh. Which is really nice. That way I could actually purchase the right materials to make the program the pilot. Correct. James Kademan [00:06:32]: Wow. Rowan Childs [00:06:33]: So that was the last piece for that. So we did a three month pilot program that went really well. The parents, the kids were really engaged and excited about clearing out some of the old books that nobody wanted to read, putting in new books that the kids helped so select. The teachers were excited to have new materials so successful that they asked me to come back and do it again. James Kademan [00:06:59]: All right. Rowan Childs [00:07:00]: Which we did. And one thing led to another. But it definitely, as we stayed and sort of kept learning from that, that really was the beginning of learning that. Absolutely kids do want to learn how to read. They absolutely do want to read great books and to select books. And there's a lot of pride in being able to select their own books. And we stayed at that location exclusively for nearly two years, just learning with the kids and the parents and the teachers really what we did or didn't want to do or what we could do before we were going to scale at all. And that was great. Rowan Childs [00:07:50]: And the other piece was, how are we going to fund all of this apart from that initial check? And while we were doing that initial pilot program in that first year, people just started giving me boxes of their nice books that they had never used or just unsolicited. They're like, oh, oh, by the way, I have a box of books for you. Like, oh, thank you so much. Or people were asking me how they could donate some money because they loved what they had heard what I was doing, whether I really knew them or not, till the point where I had a basement full of books in my house. And I was like, this seems like we have something here. So we have definitely children in a population in Madison initially that absolutely would love to have more books and programs. We have people who absolutely seem to love books and want to provide books....

In this episode of the Creator Method Podcast, Gary Lipovetsky sits down with Diana Arango, co-founder and CEO of ChefPost, to unpack what it really takes to build a highly operational business, scale a marketplace, and use social media as a true growth engine. ChefPost connects busy individuals and families with vetted personal chefs on demand, offering everything from weekly meal prep to in-home dining experiences. Together, Gary and Diana break down the reality of building a business while raising a family, and why balance often comes in seasons rather than perfect consistency. Diana shares how her journey began in Colombia, where she launched and exited her first business in luxury construction finishings before moving to New York to pursue a master's in international business and trade law. The conversation dives into the origin story of ChefPost, which was born from Diana's own frustration as a working mother trying to find a trusted chef or home cook who could help her family eat better without adding more stress to her life. What started as a personal need has now grown into a multi-city platform built around trust, hospitality, and convenience. Gary and Diana also explore the hidden complexity behind marketplace businesses, including how ChefPost vets chefs, maintains a consistent branded experience, expands into new cities, and balances both sides of the marketplace: supply and demand. Diana explains why building a company like ChefPost requires more than technology; it requires culture, community, and a deep understanding of the customer experience. The episode then shifts into a powerful strategy session on social media, founder-led content, and why many entrepreneurs are too focused on selling at the bottom of the funnel. Gary explains why founders need to stop creating only conversion-driven content and start building awareness, trust, and brand affinity through consistent, repeatable content formats. Gary also breaks down how Diana can use ChefPost's chefs, food experiences, customer stories, and behind-the-scenes moments to create content that does more than promote a service. Instead, it can build a brand people trust before they are ready to buy. This episode is a practical conversation about entrepreneurship, marketplace growth, founder-led content, family, burnout, and the future of service-based businesses. If you are a founder, creator, or business owner trying to turn social media into real business growth, this episode will show you why content is no longer optional.

In this episode of the Building PA Podcast, co-hosts Chris Martin and Jon O'Brien take a heartfelt dive into a topic that resonates deeply within the construction industry: mental health and suicide prevention. We focus on the upcoming second annual Pennsylvania Construction Hike for Hope, organized by the American Foundation for Suicide Prevention.Chris opens the episode by introducing the unique twist for today's discussion, emphasizing the importance of mental health awareness in our industry. Jon follows up with details about the Hike for Hope, which will take place on May 16th at two locations: Settlers Ridge in Pittsburgh and Memorial Lake State Park in Lebanon County. He shares that this event is part of a nationwide initiative aimed at raising awareness and funds for suicide prevention, specifically tailored to the construction community.As the conversation unfolds, Jon recounts his experiences from last year's inaugural hike, humorously noting the challenges posed by inclement weather that turned the trails into a muddy mess. He highlights the community aspect of the event, mentioning food trucks, vendor tables, and the opportunity for families to come together in support of a critical cause.The hosts discuss the significance of participation, encouraging companies to sign up teams and individuals to join in the hike. Jon reveals that last year's event raised nearly $90,000, with all funds remaining in Pennsylvania to support local outreach programs tailored for the construction industry. This financial transparency is a key point, as it ensures that contributions directly benefit those in our community.The episode takes a poignant turn as Jon shares a personal story about a friend from his youth, Tommy Arkarik, who tragically lost his life to suicide. This emotional narrative underscores the importance of the Hike for Hope and the need for open conversations about mental health. Jon reflects on how Tommy's support during a difficult time in his life had a lasting impact, emphasizing the role of community and connection in preventing such tragedies.As the episode wraps up, Chris and Jon reiterate the importance of mental health awareness and encourage listeners to reach out for help if they or someone they know is struggling. They remind everyone that the Hike for Hope is not just an event but a movement to foster understanding and support within the construction industry and beyond.Listeners are invited to participate in the hike, support the cause, and remember that help is always available through resources like the National Suicide Prevention Lifeline (988). The episode concludes with a heartfelt thank you to the audience for tuning in and a reminder to stay connected through social media and the podcast's website.

Local wood economies don't just happen on their own. They require dedicated advocates who understand forestry, respect the trades, and can bridge the gap between landowners, loggers, sawmills, and communities. In this episode of the Woodpreneur Podcast, host Jennifer Alger sits down with Malloree Weinheimer of Chickadee Forestry LLC to explore her work championing small-scale loggers, supporting sustainable forest management, and connecting people to the trees in their own backyards. Malloree shares her journey from conservation research to private consulting focused on rural economic development, and why passing down forestry knowledge as experienced foresters retire has become critically important. You'll hear about the vital role foresters play in helping small landowners manage micro-forests sustainably, the importance of building stronger, cooperative relationships between foresters and loggers, and how local wood groups can create viable markets for locally sourced timber. Malloree discusses innovative projects like the Firewood CSA and the successful Washington sawmill cooperative that's making measurable progress in local wood sales and community-based forestry. This conversation explores practical strategies for advocating for local timber economies, overcoming logistical challenges for small-scale operations, and helping landowners align their goals with wildlife and conservation priorities. Malloree emphasizes the cultural shift needed to value local forests and traditional skills, the importance of educating communities about tree species and their specific uses, and how connecting urban residents with their own land resources can transform perspectives on forestry. Whether you're a forester, logger, sawmill operator, or landowner interested in sustainable forest management, local wood economies, or building community connections around timber and conservation, this episode offers valuable insights from someone working at the intersection of forestry, advocacy, and rural development. Tune in to discover how Chickadee Forestry LLC is bridging forests and communities while supporting the next generation of loggers and building sustainable local wood markets, and don't forget to follow the Woodpreneur Podcast for more conversations about forestry, conservation, and the wood industry.

Navigating life with Adult ADHD often feels like operating in constant "survival mode." In this episode, Dave talks about why awareness is the non-negotiable starting point for meaningful change, acting as a powerful doorway to separating your ADHD wiring from perceived personal flaws. Instead of focusing solely on deficits, we explore how to leverage your unique strengths—like high energy, creativity, and resilience, while creating personalized strategies to manage common challenges like time blindness and task initiation. Most importantly, learn why self-compassion is a crucial performance enhancer and how setting realistic expectations through "micro-adjustments" is the key to rebuilding self-trust and finding lasting clarity. Awareness as the Doorway to Thriving: Learn why you "can't fix what you can't see" and how working with a coach, mentor, or trusted friend can help you build awareness to reduce shame and increase agency. Leveraging ADHD Strengths: Identify your unique assets, including high energy, creativity, and hyperfocus, and consider how to intentionally do more of what you're naturally good at. Pinpointing Pain Points: Strategically look for daily "friction points" where things consistently fall apart to create a roadmap for change, whether the stress comes from work, family, or unclear priorities. Reviewing Systems vs. Memory: Discuss the common trap of relying on memory, adrenaline, and urgency. Assess whether you have (or have abandoned) task capture systems, effective calendars, and a way to manage energy. The Power of Self-Compassion: Understand why harsh self-talk is a major roadblock and how introducing self-compassion can become a powerful performance enhancer, improving clarity and progress.

In this week's Power Lounge, host Amy Vaughan welcomes Dr. Mara Einstein, an internationally recognized authority on deceptive marketing and author of Hoodwinked: How Marketers Use the Same Tactics as Cults. A former TV and advertising executive turned academic and media ethicist, Dr. Einstein pulls back the curtain on the dark psychology behind consumer manipulation. Together, she and Amy dive into the question: When does persuasion cross the line into indoctrination? Listeners are invited to examine the uncomfortable parallels between cult behavior and brand loyalty—and to confront just how easily marketing can tap into our fears, anxieties, and identities.Drawing from her research and insights featured in the Emmy-winning Netflix documentary Buy Now: The Shopping Conspiracy, Dr. Einstein explains how modern marketing operates within what she calls the “anxiety economy.” From endless doom-scrolling to influencer-driven consumerism, she reveals how technology and advertising combine to keep us hooked, anxious, and buying. The conversation unpacks the continuum between brand fandom and fanaticism, using examples from Apple to Weight Watchers to show how manipulation thrives when emotional needs meet persuasive design.But this isn't a hopeless picture—Dr. Einstein also offers guidance for marketers and consumers alike. She challenges professionals to embrace ethics without sacrificing creativity and encourages all of us to become more conscious of how we engage with brands. By replacing reflexive scrolling with mindful consumption and by choosing community over cultish loyalty, listeners can reclaim agency in an economy built on influence. This episode is a must-hear for anyone who wants to understand—and resist—the subtle ways marketing shapes our thoughts, habits, and values.Chapters:00:00 – Intro & Welcome00:50 – Meet Dr. Mara Einstein02:10 – Why Talk About Cults and Marketing?03:30 – How the Book “Hoodwinked” Began05:10 – The Cult–Marketing Continuum06:45 – From Attention Economy to Anxiety Economy08:50 – How Anxiety Fuels Overconsumption10:25 – “Buy Now” and Viewer Reactions12:30 – Black Friday and the “Economic Blackout”14:10 – Conscious Consumption in a Digital World16:00 – The Line Between Persuasion and Manipulation17:30 – The Genius and Ethics of Duolingo's Campaigns18:45 – When Brand Community Becomes Brand Cult20:15 – Weight Watchers: A Case Study in Cult Tactics27:00 – The Role of Social Media in Modern Tribalism31:30 – Identity and the Brands We Choose37:00 – Ethical Marketing and Real Community41:10 – The Danger of Making It Hard to Leave44:30 – How AI and Bots Change the Deception Game50:00 – Building Awareness and Resilience53:00 – Closing Thoughts & Where to Find Dr. EinsteinQuotes:“We don't live in an attention economy — we live in an anxiety economy. The entire system is built to keep us just uncomfortable enough that buying something feels like relief.” - Mara Einstein“It's funny — we call it doom scrolling, and yet we treat it like self-care. The truth is, it's winding us up, not calming us down.” - Amy VaughanKey Takeaways:Anxiety, not attention, drives modern marketing.Persuasion turns toxic when it exploits fear.Brand loyalty can slide into cult behavior.Algorithms feed anxiety for engagement.We shop to soothe stress, not need.Ethical marketing connects, not controls.AI blurs truth and manipulation.Brands now shape personal identity.Awareness breaks the consumer cycle.Conscious choices beat compulsive clicks.Connect with Dr. MaSupport the show

Host Shannon Huffman Polson is the founder of The Grit Institute and host of The Grit Factor Podcast, where she helps purpose-driven leaders build grit, resilience, and purpose in their lives and organizations. A former U.S. Army Apache helicopter pilot and one of the first women to fly the Apache in the Army, Shannon brings real-world leadership experience from the military and corporate boardroom to her work as an author, speaker, and leadership educator. She is the author of The Grit Factor: Courage, Resilience, and Leadership in the Most Male-Dominated Organization in the World, which distills lessons from elite leaders across industries and the armed forces. Through The Grit Institute, Shannon combines research, storytelling, and actionable frameworks to help individuals and organizations navigate transitions, overcome challenges, and lead with impact. Her work empowers people to connect with purpose and bring values-based leadership into every facet of life and work. Whether in the cockpit, the classroom, or the boardroom, Shannon champions a mission to cultivate courage, purpose, and authentic leadership for a better world. Guest Bio Sam Ushio is the founder and Chief Ikigai Officer of Ikigai Lab, a social enterprise that blends ancient Japanese wisdom with modern science to help people and organizations align purpose with measurable impact. Drawing on two decades in corporate leadership and consulting, Sam's work focuses on human sustainability, values-based growth, and bringing humanity back into business. A former financial services executive, Sam experienced a pivotal moment that transformed his understanding of success—from financial growth to personal and purposeful growth. His family's story, rooted in Japan over a century ago, deeply shaped his worldview and introduced him to the authentic essence of Ikigai—the Japanese concept of a "reason for being." Through Ikigai Lab, Sam works with global brands and leaders to create cultures where people thrive through alignment of strengths, values, and daily actions. His frameworks integrate positive psychology, emotional intelligence, and ancient wisdom, inspiring people to live with awareness, gratitude, and intention every day. Sam is also the creator of the Ikigai Summit (soon to be rebranded as Repurpose), an annual event that explores how purpose-driven leadership can reshape organizations and communities for a more meaningful future. At his core, Sam believes purpose isn't a destination—it's a daily practice. His mission is to help others discover and live their Ikigai through the simple yet profound act of aligning who they are with how they live and lead. Summary In this conversation, Shannon Huffman Polson and Sam Ushio explore the concept of Ikigai, its origins, and its significance in personal and professional life. They discuss the importance of family legacy, personal growth, and the misunderstandings surrounding Ikigai, particularly the common four-circle Venn diagram. Sam shares his journey of discovering Ikigai through his family's history and emphasizes the need for gratitude, intentionality, and the integration of personal values in daily life. The discussion also touches on the impact of Ikigai on organizations and the importance of spirituality and rituals in Japanese culture. Takeaways Ikigai is a Japanese concept meaning 'reason for being'. Personal stories shape our understanding of purpose. Financial growth should not compromise personal growth. Gratitude and awareness are essential for a fulfilling life. Ikigai is about aligning daily actions with personal values. The four-circle Venn diagram is a common misunderstanding of Ikigai. Daily life (sekatsu) is central to understanding Ikigai. Mindset and emotional intelligence are crucial for personal development. Reflecting on influential people can help clarify one's values. Ikigai can enhance both personal and professional fulfillment. Chapters 00:00 – What Is Ikigai, Really? Sam Ushio introduces the real meaning of Ikigai—not just an abstract idea of life's purpose, but the alignment of daily actions with personal values and priorities. 01:05 – Purpose as the Foundation of Grit and Resilience Host Shannon Huffman Polson shares how purpose became central to her research on grit and leadership, setting the stage for the conversation. 02:57 – Sam Ushio's Journey from Corporate Success to Purpose Alignment Sam reflects on his background in financial services, the "lightning bolt moment" that shifted his path, and his discovery of a deeper calling through Ikigai. 03:48 – The Power of Family Heritage and Migration Sam shares his great-grandparents' story—leaving Japan to support a 1,200-year-old shrine—and how that legacy shaped his modern understanding of purpose and sacrifice. 08:19 – Realizing the Limits of Financial Growth Sam explains how a career focused solely on financial metrics led to personal disconnection—and how redefining growth became the start of his transformation. 11:03 – The Value of Failure and Creative Experimentation Sam describes his early entrepreneurial struggles and creative experiments that didn't work, emphasizing how failure built clarity and resilience. 13:30 – Discovering the Family Photo That Changed Everything A 100-year-old family photo surfaces at just the right moment, sparking deep reflection and connecting Sam's modern journey to ancestral purpose. 14:52 – Rediscovering Ikigai Through Family Wisdom Sam's Aunt Julie plays a key role in reconnecting him with the true Japanese essence of Ikigai—as a philosophy of balance, awareness, and daily living. 16:33 – Debunking the 4-Circle Ikigai Myth Sam and Shannon unpack the viral "Venn diagram" of Ikigai, exploring how Western interpretations often miss its true meaning rooted in sekatsu—daily life. 20:12 – Ikigai as Daily Alignment, Not a Destination Sam reframes Ikigai as the daily practice of aligning values with actions—living your reason for being moment by moment, not chasing a final goal. 24:21 – Frameworks for Living with Purpose Exploring the fusion of Japanese wisdom and positive psychology, Sam discusses using values and strengths (via CliftonStrengths) to guide intentional living. 26:10 – From Purpose to Measurable Impact Sam connects Ikigai to measurable outcomes in leadership and business, linking emotional awareness, cognition, and behavior to results. 32:10 – How to Begin Your Ikigai Journey Sam offers a practical starting point: reflect on a person who has shaped you, explore the values behind their influence, and connect that to your own life purpose. 34:05 – Practicing Ikigai in Daily Life (Sekatsu) Sam introduces the "Minimum Viable Purpose" concept—testing small daily actions outside your comfort zone to grow purposefully, not perfectly. 38:05 – Purpose in the Age of AI A discussion on how AI is shaping human purpose and connection, and how grounding in values helps navigate rapid technological change. 40:15 – Inside Ikigai Lab: Bridging Humanity and Business Sam explains how Ikigai Lab helps organizations and teams connect individual purpose to measurable impact through human sustainability frameworks. 43:04 – Building Awareness and Intention Across Generations Sam discusses bringing the Ikigai philosophy to workplaces, universities, and communities to help people live and lead with intention. 49:23 – Returning to Japan: A Full-Circle Journey Sam shares the emotional story of returning to his family's ancestral shrine in Japan, honoring generations of purpose, resilience, and continuity. 53:29 – The Sacred in the Everyday Shannon reflects on her trip to Japan, the power of ritual, and what it means to recognize the sacred in daily life—connecting to the heart of Ikigai. 56:11 – Purpose as a Verb, Not a Goal Sam and Shannon conclude that Ikigai isn't something you find once—it's something you live daily, through curiosity, courage, and continual growth.

On this episode of "The Valley Today," host Janet Michael welcomed listeners to a heartfelt and informative discussion about brain injury support in the Shenandoah Valley. Joined by Gina Hilliard, President of the Luray Page Chamber of Commerce, and special guests Sarah Outler and Lisa Bell from Brain Injury Connections of the Shenandoah Valley, the conversation shed light on the challenges faced by survivors and the vital resources available to them. Understanding Brain Injury: More Than Meets the Eye From the outset, the guests emphasized that brain injuries come in many forms. Lisa Bell, Northern Region Case Manager, explained the distinction between traumatic brain injuries—often caused by external events like car accidents or sports injuries—and acquired brain injuries, which can result from strokes, aneurysms, or medical incidents. Importantly, the organization supports individuals with both types, except for those born with brain injuries. Sara Outler, Outreach and Advancement Manager, highlighted the organization's client-centered approach. "Every brain injury is unique," she noted, underscoring the importance of tailoring support to each individual's goals and needs. All services are provided free of charge, thanks to grants and community funding, ensuring accessibility for everyone in need. Case Management: Guiding the Path to Recovery Transitioning from definitions to real-life impact, the conversation delved into the role of case managers. Lisa described how she connects clients with community resources, assists with practical needs like housing or volunteering, and supports both survivors and their caregivers. Rather than doing everything for clients, she empowers them to take steps toward their own goals, fostering independence and confidence. Janet observed that such support is invaluable, especially for families who may feel lost after a loved one's injury. Lisa agreed, noting the scarcity of resources in rural areas and the importance of extending help to caregivers, who often face their own set of challenges. Programs That Make a Difference The discussion then turned to innovative programs offered by Brain Injury Connections. Sara introduced "Mind Matters," a new initiative focused on concussion awareness and recovery, particularly for youth athletes. She stressed the need for proper protocols and education for coaches, parents, and teachers, pointing out that children require longer recovery times than adults after a concussion. Additionally, the PALS program pairs survivors with volunteers for monthly social outings, combating the isolation that often follows a brain injury. Whether it's a coffee date or a shared hobby over Zoom, these connections help rebuild confidence and provide much-needed companionship. Building Awareness and Community Connections Throughout the episode, the guests emphasized the importance of spreading awareness. Many people who could benefit from services simply don't know they exist. Sara encouraged listeners to visit the organization's website (bicsv.org), where they can find resources, contact information, and details about support groups—both virtual and in-person. Lisa added that friends and family members unsure how to support a loved one with a brain injury are welcome to reach out for advice. The organization is committed to helping not just survivors, but their entire support network. Looking Ahead: Events and Engagement As the conversation wrapped up, Gina shared upcoming community events, including a business seminar on holiday marketing and a women's paint-and-sip evening. These gatherings, she noted, are opportunities to connect, learn, and support one another as the holiday season approaches.

My Job Depends on Ag: On today's AgNet News Hour, Nick Papagni and Josh McGill highlighted the power of grassroots advocacy in agriculture with guest Steve Malanka, co-founder of the “My Job Depends on Ag” campaign. What began as a simple blue sticker has grown into one of the most recognizable marketing efforts in California agriculture—uniting farmers, ranchers, and supporters across the San Joaquin Valley and beyond. A Message That Stuck Malanka shared the origins of the campaign, which started with the idea of creating a visible reminder that agriculture supports not just farmers, but entire communities. The familiar sticker, often seen on trucks, tractors, and even storage tanks, carries the straightforward but powerful message: My Job Depends on Ag. One recent example of its reach came from Nutrien Ag Solutions, which displayed a 15-foot-wide decal on one of its massive storage tanks along Highway 33. For Malanka, seeing the message spread so widely underscores the campaign's mission of educating the public that food doesn't come from grocery stores—it begins with farmers who need water, land, and support to keep producing the safest, highest-quality food in the world. More Than a Sticker The campaign has also evolved into a fundraising effort that supports agricultural education. Proceeds from sticker sales go toward scholarships for high school seniors pursuing agriculture degrees. Over the past eight years, the program has contributed $10,000 annually to groups like the Center for Land-Based Learning, ensuring the next generation of ag leaders has resources to continue their education. “This isn't about making money—it's about reinvesting in the future of farming,” Malanka explained, noting that donations are routed through the Central Valley Community Foundation so all proceeds benefit students. Building Awareness and Unity Nick and Josh emphasized how the movement has become more than marketing—it's a bond among farmers and ag supporters. Spotting the sticker on the road has become a sign of solidarity, much like how FFA jackets unite students across the country. With California agriculture facing constant challenges—from water restrictions to growing imports—the hosts encouraged listeners to get involved. “We need to push this more than ever,” Nick said. “Education is huge, and this campaign helps spread the message.” To learn how to get a sticker or support the program, visit AgNetWest.com or email Nick at nick@agnetmedia.com.

The episode covers essential topics surrounding relationship dynamics and personal growth.

Key Takeaways: Understanding Relationship Dynamics: Recognizing the influence of childhood experiences and unmet needs on adult relationships is crucial for fostering meaningful connections.

Belief Systems and Personal Development: Our belief systems, developed early on, play a significant role in how we perceive relationships and navigate life changes. Navigating Modern Dating Challenges: The current dating culture involves overcoming option overload and focusing on genuine connections instead of superficial interactions. Building Awareness and Initiating Change: A conscious approach to relationships, supported by tools such as therapy or workshops, can significantly improve personal and relational well-being. Notable Quotes: "Most couples are struggling with an attitude problem… You should be perfect. You should meet all my needs." - Michelle Bohls "Understanding what shaped us early on, what are these needs that were not met… that is operating like a GPS." - Michelle Bohls "Relationships are supposed to be a team sport… when love shows up fully ready to meet your needs, you're like, hmm, no, I gotta pass." - Michelle Bohls "We unconsciously create our greatest fears… we recreate the patterns that we lived through early on unconsciously." - Michelle Bohls "A weekend workshop is great… uncover the trauma buried pretty deep and work through it in a supportive environment." - Michelle Bohls
Nonviolent Communication is a robust framework developed by Marshall Rosenberg that focuses on empathy and compassion in communication. A key aspect of NVC is building awareness of one's needs and wants and those of others. Here are several steps to enhance this awareness: Self-Observation: Begin by observing your thoughts and feelings without judgment. Recognize what triggers your emotions and consider how these relate to your needs. Identify Needs: Reflect on universal human needs (such as safety, connection, and autonomy). Identify which of these needs are not being met when you experience certain feelings. Express Feelings: Learn to articulate your feelings honestly and clearly. Use “I feel” statements to convey your emotions, linking them directly to your unmet needs. Request Clarity: Once you understand your own needs and feelings, strive to communicate this to others. Make specific, actionable requests instead of vague statements. For example, instead of saying, “I need help,” specify, “Would you be willing to help me with this task?” Practice Empathy: When engaging with others, strive to listen actively. Acknowledge their feelings and needs, which can help create a safe space for open communication. Through these steps, individuals can build awareness of needs and wants, foster healthier relationships, communicate more effectively, reduce conflict, and promote understanding.

Gone are the days where you, you know, I remember back in 2016, brands weren't even asking for insights or analytics. They would just be like, ‘hey, we'll give you $2,000 to create this YouTube video'. Gone are those days.

Welcome to Celiac Connection! This podcast is all about celiac disease and why it's important to help each other and spread the word. In this episode, we'll talk about what celiac disease is, how it affects people's health, the problems they face, and how we can all work together to make things better. 1. Understanding Celiac Disease: Celiac disease is a serious problem where the body's immune system gets upset by a protein called gluten. It's found in wheat, barley, and rye. This illness affects about 1 out of 100 people worldwide. When someone with celiac disease eats gluten, it hurts their small intestine and makes them sick. 2. Impact on Health and Well-being: If celiac disease isn't taken care of, it can cause big problems like other sicknesses, weak bones, trouble having babies, and even cancer. But if it's caught early and the person eats a diet without gluten, they can feel better and live a good life. 3. Challenges and Stigma: People with celiac disease have a hard time finding food they can eat, and sometimes others don't understand their problem. This can make them feel sad or worried. It's important for everyone to know about celiac disease and be kind to people who have it. 4. Raising Awareness and Advocacy: We can all help by learning about celiac disease and telling others about it. We can also support each other and ask for more gluten-free food options in stores and restaurants. Together, we can make life easier for people with celiac disease. Conclusion: Thanks for listening to Celiac Connection! Remember, by working together and spreading the word about celiac disease, we can make life better for everyone. Let's keep supporting each other and making a difference!

Today we REWIND back to one of our favorite Board Meetings of all time. We chose this episode because we are spending the next couple months digging deep into movement and learning, and exploring if there might be a better way to consider movement than the technique-based way we've always done it. In this episode, Kris and Nate discuss ideas presented by author Josh Waitzkin about our mental models for learning, specifically after hearing him as a guest on Tim Ferriss's podcast, and how we might apply these ideas to climbing. This episode originally aired on April 5, 2020. ____________________
We talk so often about how concerned we are about the division in our world today. Division, intolerance, conflict, a lack of civility and sometimes even just a lack of awareness. We love getting to have a podcast for many reasons, but maybe at the top is that we get to learn from voices we respect and trust. Shanera Williamson is one of those voices. In this episode of the podcast, she's helping us not only build awareness, but think on how we can help create CHANGE around racism for the kids we love. We're so excited about this episode and grateful for the wisdom, thoughtfulness and grace of our friend Shanera! . . . . .
