Some cases appear straightforward at first glance. A late-night crash on a quiet road, a damaged car, and a victim who doesn't survive. It is the kind of situation people think they understand, and the kind that often gets explained quickly and filed away just as fast.  But sometimes, there are details that do not quite fit. They can be easy to overlook in the moment. A position that does not make sense. Damage that does not match the outcome. A version of events that works on paper but feels incomplete when examined more closely. In 1977, that is exactly what happened in Middletown, Rhode Island. For years, what followed was accepted as a tragic accident. Until it wasn't.

In 2008, Carol Ann Wentworth lost her business, her home, and nearly everything she owned. Within 10 days of clarifying her next step, three recruiting firms reached out. She had a job offer in two weeks. That same clarity is what built Wentworth Executive Recruiting into a ten-year retained practice with a 94% retention rate. Carol Ann has 35 years of experience in executive search. She sends three candidates per search, not thirty. Her interviews run an hour, sometimes two. She made 48 placements with one Silicon Valley client and supported their growth through to IPO. She works with five core clients. Two keep her consistently busy. This is a different kind of episode. Not about scaling fast or billing millions in year one. It's about what it actually takes to build a recruiting practice that lasts, clients who stay, placements who stay, and a business that works for your life. Carol Ann breaks down the process behind her retention rate, the mindset framework she used to rebuild after the 2008 crash, and why going deeper with fewer clients has been more powerful than chasing volume. In this episode, you'll discover: Why Carol Ann sends three candidates instead of thirty — and what that demands upfront The two-hour candidate interview: what she asks and what she's really listening for How she uses social media screening to assess candidates beyond the CV The clarity, commitment, and consistency framework she used to rebuild after losing everything The difference between ego and confidence — and why it matters in a crisis What a sustainable retained practice looks like after ten years Why scaling isn't the only model for a successful recruiting business Episode highlights: [3:54] From an international modeling agency founder at 26 to an executive search [14:40] The mindful recruiting methodology and what real listening looks like [15:39] A 94% retention rate and the process that produces it [17:00] The two-hour candidate interview: what she asks and what she's listening for [21:01] Social media screening: what Carol Ann looks for and why [35:14] Losing a business, a home, and nearly everything, and landing a job in two weeks [38:50] Ego vs. confidence: why the distinction matters in a crisis [41:04] Clarity, commitment, and consistency: the framework she used to rebuild [55:36] A Mindful Career: how the book came about Guest Bio: Carol Ann Wentworth is the founder and CEO of Wentworth Executive Recruiting, based in the San Francisco Bay Area.

What's up, dudes? ‘Tis the season to be shopping! Hopefully you found the toys for which you were looking. We definitely wouldn't want a Jingle All the Way situation.On Monday, December 12, 1983, Carol Ann Campbell, staff writer for the York Daily Record, published an article. In “The Quest for a Very Dashing Hulk of Plastic,” she interviews several retail store owners. They enumerate the problem of low orders and large sales booms. Poor sales the previous two holiday seasons resulted in manufacturer overproduction and post-Christmas toy surpluses. Consequently, parents are scouring their communities and nearby cities to find the one gift their children each want. From He-Man to My Little Pony, from Cabbage Patch Kids to Knight Rider, toys are selling out faster than stores can stock them. Some parents, however, are turning toward perennial board game favorites like Battleship. Kiddie Town? Check. K&K Toys? Got it. Toys ‘R' Us? Only in my memories… So grab your keys and drive all over town to this episode on ”The Quest for a Very Dashing Hulk of Plastic!”Give us a buzz!

Poet and essayist Carol Ann Davis (Fairfield University) joins Evan Rosa for a searching conversation on violence, childhood, and the moral discipline of attention in the aftermath of Sandy Hook. Reflecting on trauma, parenting, childhood, poetry, and faith, Davis resists tidy narratives and invites listeners to dwell with grief, healing, beauty, and pain without resolution.“I don't believe life feels like beginnings, middles, and ends.”In this episode, Davis reflects on how lived trauma narrows attention, reshapes language, and unsettles conventional storytelling. Together they discuss poetry as dwelling rather than explanation, childhood and formation amid violence, image versus narrative, moral imagination, and the challenge of staying present to suffering.Episode Highlights“Nothing has happened at Hawley School. Please hear me. I have opened every door and seen your children.”“And that was what it is not to suffer. This is the not-suffering, happy-ending story.”“I'm always narrowing focus.”“I think stories lie to us sometimes.”“I think of the shooting as a nail driven into the tree.”“I'm capable of anything. I'm afraid I'm capable of anything.”“I tried to love and out of me came poison.”About Carol Ann DavisCarol Ann Davis is a poet, essayist, and professor of English at Fairfield University. She is the author of the poetry collections Psalm and Atlas Hour, and the essay collection The Nail in the Tree: Essays on Art, Violence, and Childhood. A former longtime editor of the literary journal Crazyhorse, she directs Fairfield University's Low-Residency MFA and founded Poetry in Communities, an initiative bringing poetry to communities affected by violence.

Return on investment can also come in the form of denials resistant documentation, coding compliance, and improved patient care and value based care alignment through a greater emphasis on patient scheduling. All of which Lifepoint Health experienced.  Note: Jason and Carol Ann refer to slides at points of this session; the audio can stand alone but if you prefer you can also download them on the Norwood website (free with registration): https://www.norwood.com/resource/the-roi-of-outpatient-cdi-slide-deck/

Shannon Rosa and Carol Ann Greenburg are parent-professionals and partners in developing and sharing their on-line resource, A Thinking Person's Guide to Autism, one of the very first resources to provide valuable information to the autistic and neurodivergent communities. In their own words, the mission of TPGA is to be a a one-stop source for carefully curated, evidence-based, neurodiversity-steeped information from autistic people, parents, and autism professionals. They emphasize that autism acceptance is not merely noble but necessary—and are separate matters from the autistic and other autism communities' never-ending fights for medical, legal, social, and educational accommodation. The goal of TPGA is “to help  fast-forward past society's rampant autism fabrications and negativity, by providing clear, thoughtfully presented, balanced, and referenced information”.  Barry and Dave discuss TPGA in the context of Shannon and Carol's experiences as parents, and as advocates for the autistic community.

Meanwhile, the CIA incited a youth rebellion in communist Hungary. We investigate the covert propaganda behind Operation Free Youth Action and Operation Anti-Sartre and the Outsider's influence on Macdonald's famous critique of Mass and Middlebrow Culture. Shownotes: Carol Ann Gill  is the author of Carol Ann, Sarah Roth wrote on Operation Focus, Hugh Wilford is the author of The Mighty Wurlitzer, Gary Lachman is the author of Beyond the Robot, Alfred Betschart writes on Sartre, Stefan Collini is the author of Absent Minds, Geoffrey Wheatcroft is the author of Absent Friends.

Strange and creepy happenings beset an average California family, the Freelings when ghosts commune with them through the television set. Initially friendly and playful, the spirits turn unexpectedly menacing, and, when Carol Ann goes missing, Steve and Diane turn to a parapsychologist and eventually an exorcist for help. Today on Buzzn The Tower as we continue our October thrill ride of trying to scare Max, we'll discuss the classic Spielbergian birth child, Poltergeist. I'm Mo Shapiro and joining me as always, the Carol Ann to my ghosts and ghouls, Max Sanders. And with that.
