Send us a textWhat happens when a former classroom teacher transforms her passion for inclusive education into a global consultancy? Dr. Jessica Werner, founder of North Shore Learning, takes us on a journey through the evolving landscape of educational inclusion in this eye-opening conversation.Growing up in 1980s Central California, Werner witnessed her physician father attending night classes to learn Spanish so he could better serve his patients—an early model of meeting others where they are. This philosophy now forms the cornerstone of her international education consultancy, where relationship-building precedes any intervention.The pandemic has fundamentally altered education, creating what Werner describes as a "pause" in students' academic and social development. "Kids are behind. Classroom management is, in a lot of ways, out of control—and it's not because students are bad kids, because they've lived through a lot." This new reality demands innovative approaches that address interconnected challenges of mental health, behavior, and learning deficits.Werner's team begins each school engagement by listening intently to teachers and administrators about their specific challenges. This assessment-first methodology stands in stark contrast to "one-and-done" professional development models. "When it's your life and you're in it all the time, sometimes it's hard to see your blind spots," she explains, highlighting why external perspective can be invaluable.For parents navigating support for struggling learners, Werner offers both professional guidance and personal empathy. "If you have that feeling as a parent, don't ignore it," she advises, suggesting parents begin teacher conversations by asking: "What are the joys you have working with my child and what's challenging?"Ready to transform your approach to inclusive education? Connect with Dr. Werner's team at northshorelearning.org and discover how relationship-centered, context-specific strategies can revitalize learning environments for students and educators alike.Learn More About Dr.  Jessica Werner of Northshore Learning Here: https://www.northshorelearning.org/ COME SAY Hey!!

Madison Kosh, Millennial, is the Senior Director of Program and Training at Girl Scouts, Heart of Central California. A dedicated mom of two, she is passionate about championing girls' ambition and creating meaningful group experiences. With over a decade of outdoor leadership experience and seven years of leadership within Girl Scouts, Madison is committed to equipping girls with the skills and confidence to navigate the world, find their voice, and create lasting change in their communities. Her deep love of the outdoors has shaped her journey—from Girl Scout to wilderness guide, outdoor retail expert, camp director, and now Senior Director of Program and Training—fueling her mission to empower the next generation of leaders.What You'll Learn in This Episode:0:00 Introduction1:05 Madison's Leadership Start5:43 Girl Scout Journey9:00 Why for Girl Scouts11:51 Parent's Leadership Thoughts 14:53 Biggest Challenges16:37 GenZ Impact20:31 Gen Alpha Impact24:26 Programs29:08 How to Support Girl Scouts31:16 20-Something Self AdviceQuotable Moments:“Nothing challenges you more as a leader than taking a group of people out into the wilderness where you're in survival mode.”“We need to teach young girls how to be confident and have the skills needed to live in this world.”“Who do you think runs this whole camp?”“All the things that parents are looking for their child to have are within Girl Scouts.”“GenZ is craving that connection but they are so busy!”"There's a trend in Gen Alpha research that shows that persistent sadness and hopelessness in teenage girls increased from 36% in 2011 to 57% in 2021. (CDC)"“In prior years the #1 response was mom as a child's key role model.”“We are trying to create a space for every girl or everyone who associates as a girl or associates with the Girl Scout experience.”“We're really creating a space where girls can come and be themselves as nurture that and give them the skills to be resilient, be confident when they walk into any room, and she knows that she belongs and can succeed. Having personal growth and a strong sense of self that can keep her emotionally anchored through both good and tough times.”“Also girls get a bigger understanding of the world – a global element.”“Buy Girl Scout cookies!” “Happy Birthday, Madison!”Three Episode Takeaways:1. It's important for girls to have interaction with women in strong leadership positions. 2. Parenting is challenging. The encroachment of technology and the belief that the world is unsafe and increasingly divided can lead to parental fear and isolation. The focus is on family and want their kids to develop skills, and new styles of leadership. Most important is having the child be their authentic self. Mental wellness is a primary concern. 3. Research indicates that people know what Girl Scouts is but they don't know what Girl Scouts do outside cookies. We have a lot to learn from GenZ. The data indicates: strong entrepreneurship, high anxiety, skepticism, and high agency (“I can do this”). They crave downtime and the ability to do nothing and want to build relationships/friendships. Gen Alpha is all in on technology as a way to learn. They aspire to be influencers, do not see mom as a role model and are looking.  Episode Resource:Ep. 7, Girl Scouts: More than just cookies?”https://spotifycreators-web.app.link/e/zY0gryNR9SbHow to reach Madison & Support Girl Scouts:madison.kosh@girlscoutshcc.orghttps://www.girlscoutshcc.org/https://girlscouts.org(find your local Council)FB & Insta https://www.facebook.com/GSHCC1/LinkedIn: company/girlscoutshccHow to reach Yo: Our website:www.girltaketheleadpod.com You can send a message or voicemail there.

Her family's village is in the Toro Creek area of the Central California coast. She didn't take the traditional route into journalism with a degree. She just decided she wanted to do it and did it. Starting out at Minneapolis community station KFAI, she brought her talents and desire to report on indigenous stories to various media outlets. With Association for Independents in Radio (AIR), she had the opportunity to collaborate with an Oklahoma radio station that wanted to cover indigenous stories but didn't have the resources for a producer. Immediately, she fell in love with the area and now splits her time between Minneapolis and Oklahoma. She is a journalist with APM Reports and is the author of Tribal Justice: The Struggle for Black Rights on Native Land, produced as an audiobook in 2024.  Producer Hosts: Leah Lemm & Cole PremoEditors: Britt Aamodt and Chris Harwood

Ford has introduced the Mustang GTD Spirit of America, a tribute to the iconic American car that has been part of American culture since 1965. This week, we have an exclusive interview with an expert on the car. We caught up with Brandon Turkus, Ford's Enthusiast Vehicles Communications Manager, at the Chicago Auto Show for the inside scoop on the vehicle Ford calls the fastest production Mustang ever built. The model honors the American spirit of ingenuity and perseverance, as well as the 60 years of Mustang achievement.   The Mustang GTD Spirit of America features exposed carbon fiber aerodynamic elements and unique exterior trims. The all-new 2025 Mustang GTD sets a new performance bar with 815 horsepower, 664 pound-feet of torque, and a top speed of 202 miles per hour. And that's only the beginning of the story. We'll have much more in this episode. In the news this week, a reliable report says Chevrolet plans to drop one of its conventionally powered SUVs from the U.S. market after this model year while emphasizing the battery-electric version. We'll tell you which one and the surprising place where the gas model will continue to be sold. Elon Musk has announced that Tesla will launch its robotaxi service much earlier than expected, and we'll have details on that. A new electric vehicle charging network has just gone into business, just as automakers call for the resumption of work on the federally sponsored EV charging infrastructure, which has built a paltry number of charging stations so far. You might be sick of tariff talk, but the Administration has announced tariffs on steel and aluminum that could have an impact on what you pay for your next car. We'll have our thoughts. On the road test front, Host Jack Nerad will put the 2025 Mazda3 through its paces. His test car was equipped with an increasingly rare piece of kit — a six-speed manual transmission, and Nerad will tell how he liked the car on a 500-mile round trip to the Central California coast. Meanwhile, on the other coast, Co-Host Chris Teague road-tested the all-new version of the Nissan Kicks small crossover SUV, and he'll have his report.

In the first half, Jeremiah Horstman joined guest host Connie Willis (info) to discuss the recent UFOs over Arizona thought to be made of plasma, as well as other strange sightings in the state. According to Horstman, the plasma orbs have been appearing consistently in the Sycamore Canyon area. "They were coming up almost the exact same time in the exact same region every night," he shared. These orbs have sparked a collaborative investigative effort, with enthusiasts posting photographs and videos on social media. "The more eyes, the better," Horstman said. To see his photos of these lights, click here.Horstman then told listeners how he prefers experiential knowledge over academic credentials when assessing UFO reports. "I would much rather talk to a [real witness] who dropped out of high school... than a person who sits in an armchair and has a master's degree," he insisted. Horstman noted that understanding these sightings often requires thinking outside the box, as many phenomena operate beyond human sensory perception.The discussion also touched on government secrecy surrounding UFO technology, with Horstman revealing that a facility near Sedona has become a new hub for advanced research previously conducted at Area 51. "It's always been a rumor... that there are government underground facilities in the Sedona region," he explained. Horstman claimed there are non-human entities working alongside humans, developing technology that defies our understanding of physics. He relayed a story from a trusted source who said one of these non-human creatures lifted him with just one arm after a confrontation in the desert.-------------------The second half featured Open Lines, where listeners called in to discuss topics of interest. Jeff from Culver City, California brought up the many recent mysterious drone sightings, proposing four theories: they could be adversarial drones, holographic illusions designed to manipulate public perception, an alien scouting program for potential invasion, or technological experiments gone awry.Gerald from the Bronx shared a personal encounter with NYPD drones outside his apartment, describing how he felt observed and saw them return to a black van. He expressed skepticism about government transparency, citing his grandmother's belief that no country is truly free.Donny from Central California revealed a chilling account involving his late friend Jim, who observed a large, silent drone hovering over his RV on a ranch. Military jets scrambled to the area shortly after, and personnel approached Jim, asking if he had seen anything unusual. They confiscated his phone but returned it wiped clean. Donny also mentioned strange circumstances surrounding Jim's death, including finding titanium on the ranch and the lack of transparency regarding the autopsy.Ruth from Maryland expressed her gratitude for the night's discussion and shared her own experience with drones, mentioning her late friend who worked on unmanned projects with high security clearance. She described observing large, silent drones that are only visible under certain light conditions. Ruth inquired about the history of underground facilities, specifically how far back they extend, given her proximity to significant sites like Pax and Webster Field. She also noted feeling slight movements in her RV, suggesting possible underground activity.

Through his inspirational account, we explore the power of transparency and the surprising support system that can emerge when someone is brave enough to ask for help.Our episode underscores the critical need to shift perceptions around addiction in professional settings, with a focus on reducing stigma through empathy and understanding.

On this week's podcast, Pat Cobe, senior menu editor of Restaurant Business, and Bret Thorn, senior food & beverage editor of Nation's Restaurant News and Restaurant Hospitality, discuss recent tasting adventures. Bret traveled to Los Angeles on vacation, where he began exploring restaurants in the West Hollywood neighborhood where he was staying almost as soon as the plane landed. He tried two happy hours, one at Madre, where he had a memorable fruity and spicy margarita and chicken enchilada with mole, and another at Laurel Hardware, where he ate glazed pork ribs while sipping a couple of beers. The next day, Bret met up with a restaurant consultant friend who led him to several of his favorites, starting in Beverly Hills at a small plates restaurant called Bacari, where each dish was better than the next and most were a reasonable $15. The culinary tour continued to an old-timey place called The Hideaway, followed by loaded breakfast burritos at Cofax Coffee, and several hotspots in the Silver Lake-Eagle Rock area of the city. Before heading to Las Vegas for the second leg of his trip, Bret had tasted L.A.'s wide array of global cuisines, including Armenian, Japanese and regional Mexican. Meanwhile, Pat got a preview of Taco Bell's new chicken nuggets, which roll out nationwide on Dec. 19. The nuggets are coated with a mix of breadcrumbs and tortilla chips to make them extra-crunchy, and they lived up to the crunch. Since nuggets demand a dipping sauce, Taco Bell introduced three new ones: Hidden Valley Fire Ranch Sauce, Jalapeno Honey Mustard and creamy Bell Sauce. The steak boards at Rare Society offer a sampling of several cuts and sauces. | Photo courtesy of Trust Restaurant Group. Then Pat shared clips from an interview with Brad Wise, chef-partner in San Diego-based Trust Restaurant Group and operator of six Rare Society steakhouses—among other concepts.

            My guest today, the noted muralist, John Cerney, is a Salinas, California native whose artwork can best be described as ‘giant cut-out plywood art' that's ordinarily viewed from the comfort of your car. There's a sense of Norman Rockwell to his work, with a dash of Christo.            After earning an art degree from Cal State Long Beach in 1984, John worked in Southern California as a portrait artist, rendering finely detailed pencil drawings. His patrons were television producers, actors, and writers, with such clients as the late comedian John Candy and baseball star Reggie Jackson.            Wanting to reach a larger audience, John would periodically relocate to Central California and convince a farmer to allow him to paint a mural on his barn, just for practice. This led to commissions from local businesses. A major shift happened when he added cutout plywood pieces to his barn murals. Eventually, he abandoned barns and walls altogether, concentrating on the cut-outs themselves.When the scale of his work got much larger, it attracted ad agencies and businesses from around the country. By then he had a blueprint for the way to create his art installations, which he still does to this day. John splits his time working on commissions from clients across the country and his own personal projects that allow him to explore his unusual form of public art. John's work can be found in 23 states around the U.S. And his work has been featured in National Geographic Magazine, Smithsonian Magazine, and the New York Times. https://www.johncerneymurals.com/Instagram: @johncerney
