Send us fan responses! A $495,000 line of credit sounds like a flex until you ask the real question: how liquid are you, and how fast can you move without putting your life on the line? We get into the uncomfortable truth that most people are “funding blind” not because they are lazy, but because their finances have no structure. We walk through the difference between approval and spending, why interest only applies to what you actually use, and how a clean setup can create options when a big opportunity shows up.We also address allegations around Harvest Christian University, including claims about a cease and desist and why listeners should verify credentials before paying for programs that promise status or authority. We talk disputes, documentation, and why talking to a real person at your payment provider can matter when you are trying to recover money. If you have ever felt pressured by a pitch that sounded too good, this part will hit home.Then we go deeper into business formation and asset protection ideas: turning your name into a business, separating departments into multiple operating companies, and rolling everything into a holding company that functions like a family office. We discuss trust roles, why mixing roles can weaken protection, and the mindset behind “own nothing, control everything.” We finish with practical business credit steps like Net 30 accounts and building business credit history that can open doors to funding.If you want more conversations like this, subscribe, share this with a friend who needs structure, and leave a review so more builders can find us.https://donkilam.com FOLLOW THE YELLOW BRICK ROAD - DON KILAMGO GET HIS BOOK ON AMAZON NOW! https://open.spotify.com/track/5QOUWyNahqcWvQ4WQAvwjj?autoplay=trueSupport the showhttps://donkilam.com

About this episode: In this episode of the Wellness Pro Hotline, Cate Stillman sits down with Amy Glasser, founder of The Vital Well — an Ayurveda-based membership community for women seeking deeper vitality, hormonal balance, and long-term health. Amy has already done the foundational work: she has built her club, set up her classroom, refined her Vitality Checkup sessions, and established her sales cycle. Now the question is simple — how does she fill her pipeline consistently and convert cold leads into committed members? What unfolds is a practical, laser-focused coaching session on one of the most underutilized lead generation strategies in the wellness industry: showing up in person at farmers markets, festivals, and community fairs to offer free Vitality Checkups. Cate walks Amy through the entire three-session funnel, from the initial pulse check at the table, through the assessment review on Zoom, to the Sacred Sales pitch that closes the client into a year-long club commitment. This episode also covers how to handle time blocking as a single parent, when to offer certificates of completion and continuing education credits, how to create FOMO using a monthly club calendar, and why the closing call is simply about getting someone to defend their desire and commit to their health. This is the Wellness Pro Hotline: real practitioners, real challenges, real coaching — on the record. Key Takeaways: The Three-Session Farmer's Market Funnel: How to move a cold lead from a free vitality checkup at a community table to a closed year-long club member across three intentional touchpoints Discover, Desire, Defend: Why the Sacred Sales framework is the difference between a presentation that informs and a conversation that converts Certificates of Completion and CEUs: How to add perceived and real value to your club by offering completion certificates and continuing education credits without overcomplicating the process Time Blocking for Leads and Sales: How to structure your week so lead outreach, sales calls, and closing calls each have their own designated time — even around childcare and a split-location lifestyle Creating FOMO With a Monthly Calendar: Why showing prospects exactly what is happening inside the club this month is one of the most effective closing tools available One Claude Prompt Away: How Amy is already using AI to support session notes, client plans, and content creation — and how to go further Resources and Links: Fix Your Offer Session: https://api.leadconnectorhq.com/widget/bookings/fix-your-offer-session Wellness Pro Academy: https://wellnesspro.academy Yogahealer: https://www.yogahealer.com About the Guest, Amy Glasser: Amy Glasser is the founder of The Vital Well, an Ayurveda-informed membership community helping women reclaim their vitality, balance their hormones, and build sustainable long-term health.

If so, put your email address in the box. Charlottesville PC update: Schwarz re-elected chair, update on UVA Housing projectsA slightly less busy week gives us the chance to catch up with items in September that have so far not yet been reported. That includes two meetings that happened on the ninth day of the month at just about the same time.The first is the joint meeting of the Charlottesville City Council and the Charlottesville Redevelopment and Housing Authority called to order by Mayor Juandiego Wade.There are usually no action items on the agendas of work sessions but Council had to make two appointments to the Charlottesville Planning Commission before that body could meet. The terms of Carl Schwarz and Ross Harness expired on August 31, 2026.Before moving on to business with the CRHA, Council reappointed both to new terms. More from the CRHA in the next newsletter.Schwarz served two terms on the Board of Architectural Review from 2014 to the end of 2021 before being appointed to the Planning Commission beginning September 2022. He continues to serve on the BAR as the representative from the Planning Commission.Harness was appointed to the PC earlier this year to fill a vacancy left with the resignation of Phil d'Oronzio. Harness is a realtor with Long and Foster.The Planning Commission also met on September 9 for a regular meeting and the first act was to elect leadership for the next year. Schwarz had been serving as chair and Danny Yoder had been vice chair.“The nominating committee of Hosea Mitchell and myself met, and we would like to request that Carl Schwarz serve again as chair and Danny Yoder serve again as vice chair,” said Commissioner Lyle Solla-Yates.Two of UVA's affordable housing sites in holding pattern With new chairs in place, Planning Commissioners gave updates including non-voting member Michael Joy who had updates on the University of Virginia's plans to contribute land for affordable housing projects. Just before the pandemic, former UVA President Jim Ryan had announced that up to 1,500 units would be built on three sites.UVA selected a group called Preservation of Affordable Housing to develop a two-acre site at the intersection of 10th and Wertland as well as the Piedmont Housing Alliance to build on a 12-acre tract of land off of Fontaine Avenue known as Piedmont.Both are in a holding pattern and Joy said both projects are dealing with fundamental shifts in what he called the affordable housing industry.“These shifts have been creating funding challenges, both nationally and locally, which is impacting affordable housing development,” Joy said. “The timing for this construction is contingent on the financing and the entitlements, and both of which are currently being worked through.”Preservation of Affordable Housing had submitted plans for a six story building at 1000 Wertland Street that would have 180 units with about 16,000 square feet of non-residential space.The city's Department of Neighborhood Development Services signed off on a development plan but a final site plan will need to be approved. In addition, the project needs a Certificate of Appropriateness from the BAR, a body that was not ready to grant one in February 2025.The Piedmont Housing Alliance submitted a rezoning in December 2025 for the Piedmont site for 375 units but has since asked for an indefinite deferral.“Both of these sites are being treated as unique developments and they'll continue to progress on their own timelines,” Joy said.The third site is at North Fork and UVA has selected Bluestone Land LLC as a development partner.“North Fork is a very different site from the initial two properties in terms of size, scale, project phasing, and affordability mix,” reads the website of the President's Council on UVA-Community Partnerships. “We anticipate market rate and workforce/middle-income housing in addition to affordable units at this site.”Previous coverage:* University of Virginia resumes housing initiative for up to 1,500 units, April 30, 2021* UVA announces three sites for affordable housing projects, December 14, 2021* University of Virginia issues first request for qualifications for affordable housing developer, June 10, 2022* Nonprofits have been asked to work on UVA housing projects, February 15, 2023* UVA Foundation seeks firms to build 600 units of mixed-income housing at North Fork, November 26, 2024* A quick update on the UVA Housing Initiative, July 24, 2026* UVA still committed to affordable housing initiative launched during Ryan administration, C-Ville Weekly, July 29, 2026Sponsored message: Panorama Natural BurialAt Panorama Natural Burial, we believe caring for the deceased can be simple, meaningful, and deeply connected to the natural world. As a natural burial ground just outside Charlottesville, we offer families an alternative to traditional burial that honors both the people we love and the land that will carry them forward.Whether you are planning ahead, navigating a recent loss, or are just curious about natural burial, we welcome the conversation. We host regular tours and community events throughout the year. At Panorama we are building new ways of understanding death, land, ecology, ritual, memory, and community. We believe that building community around death care helps us all to live fuller lives. We are open to the public daily 9 a.m. to 7 p.m. Come visit!Missing Middle working group updateLast week, the Stony Point Development Group held a required community meeting for the third phase of Dairy Central, a mixed-use project that is just under the threshold required for City Council to approve a special exception permit for additional height. In other words, this project is by-right under the city's 2023 zoning code.That Development Code is the third and final component of the Cville Plans Together initiative, a series of projects intended to increase the amount of housing that could be built across the city of Charlottesville.The Affordable Housing Plan was the first and it called for “soft density” across the city which resulted in a Future Land Use Map and a new zoning which allows for many more residential units without City Council's input. “Soft density” is also known as “missing middle” and the ability is embedded in the Development Code.One example of this in practice can be seen at 1040 St. Clair Avenue in the Locust Grove neighborhood on which a single-family home will be demolished to make way for six units. The 0.213 acre parcel is zoned Residential-A, which allows six units on a lot if half of them are designated affordable. Learn more in this story from August 2026. A final site plan has been approved.A working group of developers, staff, and other interested parties is leading efforts to loosen regulations in order to make it even easier for builders to construct more homes. The Planning Commission got an update on this missing middle work group from Ross Harness who said utilities are a barrier.“It was also noted difficulties that arise from the city having a gravity-fed only sewer system and how sometimes that prevents lots in town from even being reached without having a private pump system that… increases the cost of construction of those properties and long-term maintenance on the private side,” Harness said.Harness said there are many city policies that are preventing more housing units from being constructed such as requiring structures built on sublots needing to be spaced apart. He said the purpose of the group is to identify what developers call constraints.“Next steps for this group are a site visit to some of the parcels that some of the members of the subcommittee have so that we can actually get out there and have a little bit more physical discussion about some of these constraints,” Harness said.The Missing Middle work group is an informal committee, but I asked the city to provide a list of members. This was what was provided on September 10.* Local Builders and Developers: Bob Pineo, A.J. Amigoni, Richard Price, Nicole Scro, Dan Zimmerman, Trent Lawhorn, and Dan Rosensweig* Neighborhood Development Service: Matt Alfele, Carrie Rainey, Dannan O'Connell, Ben Koby, Madelyn Metzler, and Chuck Miller* Public Works: Brennan Duncan, Caleb Smith* Fire: Jason Campbell* Utilities: Cody Tusing, Calvin Chan, Chuck Drennen, and Donald Schrager* City Attorney's Office: J Vaden Hunt and one other staff member* Planning Commission: Ross Harnes and Betsy RoettgerLearn more about the Missing Middle Work Group here and also here on Connect Charlottesville. Quick-builds stuck?In the wake of a pedestrian being killed on Elliot Avenue in October 2024, the City of Charlottesville embarked on a series of projects intended to address safety concerns.After consultation with the Fire Department and the Charlottesville Bicycle and Pedestrian Advisory Committee, a list of 67 “quick-build” projects were developed to use low-cost materials as traffic-calming measures. These were to have been completed in 2025.“These projects will rely on existing local capital funds for neighborhood transportation improvements, bicycle infrastructure improvements, and Safe Routes to School Improvements, as well as newly appropriated surplus funds for urgent transportation improvements,” reads the website.Planning Commissioner Josh Carp told his colleagues at the September 9 meeting that the city is far from meeting that goal after having conversations with staff.“We've built about half that list, and the upshot of a long meeting was that there is currently no staffing and no funding available to complete that list or to harden the projects that are already in place,” Carp said.Carp said this will be a topic of discussion when the capital improvement plan budget comes before the PC in November.I've requested additional information and will report back when I can.Previous coverage:* Charlottesville's new transportation planner briefs Council on future process, March 21, 2023* Charlottesville's “quick-build” projects are three-quarters built, August 14, 2025* Deputy City Manager Freas addresses pedestrian fatality on Emmet Street, October 9, 2025* Charlottesville City Council learns of plan to hire at least 42 new bus drivers over next four years, December 13, 2025* Charlottesville City Council briefed on efforts to lower speed limits, prepare new mobility plan, July 31, 2026LUEPC visits the Birdwood MansionIn late 2019, the Albemarle Board of Supervisors and Charlottesville City Council voted to dissolve a public body known as the Planning and Coordination Council which had provided an opportunity for elected officials to meet with their counterparts at UVA at a public meeting.This was replaced by the closed-door Land Use and Environmental Planning Committee which does not include any elected officials and certainly not enough to trigger Virginia's open meeting rules.According to the LUEPC website, the body has not met since May 15.According to Planning Commissioner Hosea Mitchell, LUEPC has met since then but said it was not an update on policy issues.“We went on a field trip,” Mitchell said. “It was a fun field trip. The field trip was to the Birdwood Mansion. The Birdwood Mansion is an edifice that was built between 1819 and 1830.”According to the website, rooms have been available for overnight accommodations since March 2026 at the Ivy Road landmark owned by the University of Virginia Foundation. That organization was created after UVA, Albemarle, and Charlottesville entered into a Three-Party Agreement which established guidelines for planning and development. That also led to the creation of the now-shuttered PACC.Previous LUEPC coverage:* Regional planners get preview of North Fork rezoning, January 12, 2022* Changes may be coming to closed-door planning group, May 10, 2023* Area planners hear from VDOT about desire to coordinate transportation projects, April 16, 2026* Closed-door body briefed on Rivanna Futures, water and sewer upgrade in northern Albemarle, May 14, 2026Two other items from the Planning Commission reports* Schwarz gave an update on a six-story building planned for 915 East High Street which is being developed under the 2003 zoning code rather than the new rules. That means the inclusionary zoning rules do not apply and the number of affordable units will be significantly lower.* Staff in the Department of Neighborhood Development Services continue to work on a second round of “code clean-up” intended to streamline the new rules. The idea is to have a public hearing before the Planning Commission in December. Learn more on the NDS website.No one speaks at Comprehensive Plan public hearingOn Monday, October 5, 2026, Charlottesville City Council will hold a public hearing on an update to the city's Comprehensive Plan. This is not to be confused with the five-year review of the plan which will really get underway sometime next year.The Planning Commission held their public hearing on the current proposed changes to the comp plan on September 9 and heard from Development Planning Manager Matt Alfele who reminded the appointed body that the Comprehensive Plan was last updated in November 2021 and the Community Facilities chapter needs to be updated.“Since then, there have been several amendments, including adoptions of both the Climate Action Plan and the Parks and Recreation Master Plan,” Alfele said. “Since then, there have been updates to city and partner agency Public utility and facility planning maps and projects. It is best practice to periodically update public utilities and facility maps and plans included in the Comprehensive Plan.”For instance, the updated chapter would include a map of the Central Waterline the Rivanna Water and Sewer Authority is currently building.“The scope of the amendment includes adding 2 new strategies, one to adopt relevant RWSA and ACSA plans by reference within the Comprehensive Plan, and one to add future Schenks Branch Sewer Interceptor upgrade project,” Alfele said.The Schenks Branch Sewer Interceptor upgrade is a project mandated by a Virginia Department of Environmental Quality consent decree to replace a pipe from the 1950's. The first phase was installed with the construction of the John Warner Parkway, but the second phase has required negotiations between Albemarle County and Charlottesville. Learn more on this outdated cvillepedia article.No one spoke at the Planning Commission's public hearing and none of the members of the Planning Commission made a comment.JMRL in early planning for upgrade of Central LibraryThe Board of Trustees of the Jefferson Madison Regional Library will meet today at Northside Library, a building owned by Albemarle County that opened to patrons in March 2015.One of the topics on the agenda is the future renovation of Central Library, a building co-owned by Albemarle County and Charlottesville since 1978. Capital budgets in both Albemarle and Charlottesville include money in the current fiscal year for planning and funding in FY29 for construction. Each set aside $857,109 this year and $9,676,141 in FY29.Library Director David Plunkett gave an update at the August 24 meeting.“We're talking about this now, the design and community engagement is happening this year into next year,” Plunkett said. “And then construction those 2 years, a new building opens then.”#1131 is also a podcast!Did you notice that to be the case? For almost half of this newsletter's existence, the newsletter was a script for a podcast. When I left the Piedmont Environmental Council after two very unproductive years, I wasn't sure what form my return to journalism would take. But my dream job used to be working for public radio.I learned sometime in the 2000's I was never going to get hired for that sort of job. I'd worked in public radio for a while, and even moved to Charlottesville to take a full-time position. I was insubordinate, didn't listen to authority, and generally refused to be kept in the box my employer wanted me to be in. I stick to myself and maintain my independence because I learned to stay in the box for my next job. The older I got, the less I could afford to speak my mind so I mostly did my job and kept my mouth shut. For eleven years I did the job well, but this is America where people without connections and long pedigrees tend to get to be the ones who tell people to stay in boxes. In any case, paid subscribers, sponsors, and donors are helping me live out this fantasy of being an independent journalist. This is the work I think I am supposed to do, and the work I think about all of the time now. Even when dreaming. I'm not sure I would recommend this profession to anyone, but yet I wish I could explain how satisfying it is to do this work.Now I need to chill before getting back to work and the solution I think is Can.

We unpack metaphors around land, air, and water jurisdictions, promissory notes, and why the all-caps name shows up in so many places. You'll hear perspectives on maritime law themes, court standing, and why the host calls certain documents “paper voodoo” that can shape how you're treated in financial and legal spaces.Then we zoom out to institutions and structure: churches, boards, private communities, and how records and trusts can be used to organize money and influence.

In this episode of The Yoga Therapy Hour, Amy welcomes two guests whose work intersects at the heart of yoga therapy education: Leila Stuart and Kimberly Searl from the School of Integrative Health at Notre Dame of Maryland University.The conversation centers on the integration of Experiential Anatomy into a graduate-level yoga therapy curriculum, and what it means to move beyond memorization of anatomy into direct, embodied understanding.Rather than approaching anatomy as static knowledge, this dialogue explores anatomy as a lived, perceptual experience—something that can be sensed, refined, and integrated into clinical practice.In This ConversationAmy, Leila, and Kimberly reflect on how experiential anatomy supports the development of skilled, perceptive yoga therapists. They explore how students shift from learning about the body to learning through the body.The discussion highlights the value of integrating subjective experience with objective anatomical knowledge. This approach allows future practitioners to better understand their clients, not just structurally, but relationally and perceptually.There is also a thoughtful look at how anatomy education can support interoception, clinical reasoning, and therapeutic presence—skills that are essential in yoga therapy but often underdeveloped in traditional anatomy courses.Key ThemesEmbodied Learning in Anatomy Anatomy becomes more meaningful when it is felt and explored internally, rather than only studied intellectually.Bridging Science and Experience The conversation clarifies how experiential anatomy complements traditional biomedical models without replacing them.Clinical Application Students trained in this way develop a more nuanced ability to observe, listen, and respond to the lived experience of their clients.Education that Transforms Practice The integration of this textbook into a master's program offers a model for how yoga therapy education can evolve to meet the needs of modern healthcare environments.Why This MattersFor yoga therapists and educators, this episode offers a clear direction: anatomy education can support deeper awareness, more refined clinical skills, and stronger therapeutic relationships.For those training practitioners, it raises an important consideration—how we teach anatomy shapes how practitioners perceive and work with the human system.About the GuestsLeila Stuart is the author of Experiential Anatomy, a text that invites readers into a direct, felt understanding of the body through guided inquiry and exploration. https://leilastuart.comKimberly Searl teaches anatomy within the Yoga Therapy Master's program at Notre Dame of Maryland University, where she integrates experiential methods into graduate-level education. https://kimsearl.offeringtree.comClosing ReflectionThis episode invites a shift in perspective—from seeing anatomy as information to be mastered, toward experiencing it as a dynamic, living process. That shift has implications not only for education, but for the quality of care offered in yoga therapy settings.Contact Amy Wheeler:www.TheOptimalState.com Optimal State App for iPhone:https://apps.apple.com/us/app/optimal-state/id1604424804 The Yoga Therapy Hour Podcast:https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/yoga-therapy-hour-with-amy-wheeler/id1564687158 School of Integrative Health at NDMU:https://www.ndm.edu/academics/integrative-health Master of Science in Yoga Therapy at NDMU:https://www.ndm.edu/academics/integrative-health/yoga-therapy Explore NDMU's Post-Master's Certificate in Therapeutic Yoga Practices, designed specifically for licensed healthcare professionals:https://www.ndm.edu/academics/integrative-health/yoga-therapy/post-masters-certificate-in-therapeutic-yoga-practices Try our Post-Bac Ayurveda Certification Program at NDMU:https://www.ndm.edu/academics/integrative-health/ayurveda/post-baccalaureate-ayurveda-certification Optimal State App for iPhone:https://apps.apple.com/us/app/optimal-state/id1604424804 The Yoga Therapy Hour Podcast:https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/yoga-therapy-hour-with-amy-wheeler/id1564687158 Our Book is Coming August 10th 2026!

In today's financial climate, finding ways to cut spending and maximize savings is likely to be on everybody's priority list. If you're on the hunt for a way to get more for your money, look no further than your local credit union for a simple and safe way to grow your savings with certificates. Links: Learn more and explore certificates Check out TCU University for financial education tips and resources! Follow us on Facebook, Instagram and Twitter! Learn more about Triangle Credit Union Transcript: Welcome to Money Tip Tuesday from the Making Money Personal podcast.  If you've been keeping your money in a regular savings account and wondering whether there's a way to earn more without taking on investment risk, a certificate may be worth considering.  Today, we'll cover how certificates work, why they can be a powerful savings tool, and what you should look for when comparing high-yield certificate options.  What Exactly Is a Certificate?  Let's start with the basics.  A certificate, also known by many as a CD or Certificate of Deposit at other financial institutions, is a savings product that allows you to deposit money for a fixed period of time, known as the term, in exchange for a fixed dividend or interest rate.  In simple terms, you're agreeing not to touch that money for a specific timeframe, such as 6 months, 12 months, 24 months, or longer. In return, the financial institution rewards you with a higher rate than you would typically earn in a standard savings account.  Think of it as getting paid a premium for your patience.  Unlike stock market investments, certificates aren't subject to market fluctuations. You know exactly how much you'll earn when the certificate matures, which can provide peace of mind and predictability.  Why Are Certificates Attractive Right Now?  One of the biggest benefits of certificates is their ability to lock in a guaranteed return.  When certificate rates are elevated, savers have an opportunity to secure that rate for months or even years.  Let's say you have money set aside for a future goal, perhaps a home down payment, a new vehicle, a wedding, or a general savings fund you don't expect to need immediately.  A certificate can help that money work harder while still preserving your principal.  That's a key distinction.  Unlike investing, certificates focus on capital preservation and predictable growth.  For many people, that's exactly what they want for short-term and medium-term savings goals.  Who Should Consider a Certificate?  Certificates can be especially valuable for people who:  Have cash sitting in a low-yield savings account. Are saving for a known goal within the next one to five years. Want guaranteed growth without market risk. Prefer a "set it and forget it" approach to saving. Are looking to diversify between savings and investment accounts.  Certificates can also help remove temptation.  Because the funds are committed for a defined term, you're less likely to dip into your savings for impulse purchases or non-essential expenses.  What Should You Look for When Comparing Certificates?  Not all certificates are created equal.  If you're shopping around, here are five things to pay attention to.  1. The Yield  Most people focus immediately on the advertised rate, and that's important. Higher yields generally mean your money will grow faster.  However, don't stop there. Make sure you're comparing similar terms. A 12-month certificate should be compared against other 12-month certificates, not a 36-month product.  It's also important to understand whether the quoted return is the annual percentage yield, or APY, since APY reflects the impact of compounding. The rate advertised may not necessarily be the annual percentage yield, so make sure you look closer to detect the difference.  2. The Length of the Term  Ask yourself:  "When will I need this money?" If you're saving for a vacation next summer, a five-year certificate probably isn't the best fit. The term should align with your financial goal and your expected timeline. The goal is to earn more while still maintaining access when you need it.  3. Early Withdrawal Penalties  A certificate is designed to be held until maturity. If you withdraw funds early, you'll typically face a penalty that reduces some of the earnings.  Before opening a certificate, understand:  How the penalty is calculated Whether any exceptions exist How much flexibility you'll have if circumstances change  A certificate should complement your emergency fund, not replace it.  4. Minimum Deposit Requirements  Some certificates require a large initial deposit, while others can be opened with relatively modest amounts. Don't assume you need thousands of dollars to get started. Many financial institutions offer options that are accessible to a wide range of savers.  5. Your Overall Savings Strategy  One mistake some savers make is putting all their available cash into a single certificate. Instead, think about how it will fit into your broader financial picture. It's not typically worth it to put all savings funds into a certificate account.   Your savings strategy should include at least:  An emergency fund that's easily accessible A checking account for everyday expenses A regular savings account for short-term needs  That leaves things like certificates for more medium to longer-term savings goals.  Here's a bonus tip.  Many savvy savers use what's called a "certificate ladder." Instead of putting all your money into one certificate, you divide it among several certificates with different maturity dates.  For example:  One 12-month certificate One 24-month certificate One 36-month certificate  As each certificate matures, you can reinvest or use the funds based on your current needs. This strategy can provide a balance between earning competitive yields and maintaining flexibility.  Certificates may not be flashy, but they remain one of the most effective tools for growing savings safely and predictably.  If you're looking for guaranteed growth, want to protect your principal, and have specific savings goals on the horizon, a certificate could be an excellent addition to your financial toolkit.  Before opening one, make sure to consider the yield, term length, early withdrawal penalties, minimum deposit requirements, and how the certificate fits into your overall savings plan.  If you'd like to learn more about certificate options and how they can support your savings goals, you're welcome to visit our website or contact us at Triangle Credit Union to determine which certificates might be right for your financial plan.  Until next time, keep saving smart and making your money work harder for you.

Y cuando alguien acá en Canadá les dice que estudió en un college, muchos asumen que fue a la universidad, o incluso piensan en un colegio, por cómo se escribe la palabra.Esa confusión, aunque parezca pequeña, puede hacer que malentiendas una conversación, una oferta de trabajo o incluso una oportunidad de estudio.Hoy vamos a aclarar eso y más. ¿Qué diferencia hay entre un “diploma” y un “degree”? ¿Cuándo se usa “certificate” y cuándo “bachelor's”? ¿Qué es exactamente un “PhD”?Si alguna vez te has hecho alguna de esas preguntas, o si simplemente quieres entender cómo funciona el sistema cuando alguien te lo menciona, sigue escuchando.Recuerda que todos los recursos para este episodio, incluyendo la transcripción, la tabla de vocabulario y ejercicios para repasar el aprendizaje, están disponibles en nuestro sitio web.

Matthew Farwell Faces a Death Certificate That Says WHAT?!

The Matthew Farwell trial begins with a document that no longer says what it said for five years. Sandra Birchmore's death certificate originally listed suicide. In April 2026, the Massachusetts medical examiner changed the manner of death to undetermined and changed the cause from asphyxia by hanging to asphyxia. Farwell's defense still says Sandra killed herself. Judge Denise Casper has ruled that his lawyers may show jurors evidence of Sandra's mental-health struggles and suicidal thoughts. That creates the central fight for October: whether the jury sees those records as an explanation for her death, or as personal history that does not answer the physical and investigative evidence prosecutors plan to present. Federal prosecutors allege Farwell met Sandra through the Stoughton Police Explorers program, where she enrolled at 12. They say he began an unlawful relationship with her at 15 while he was 27 and later killed her to prevent disclosure of what had happened. Farwell has pleaded not guilty to charges of killing a witness and causing the death of Sandra's unborn son. The department's own history sits underneath that prosecution. A 2022 internal investigation found that Farwell, his twin brother William, and former deputy chief Robert Devine had inappropriate relationships with Sandra. William Farwell and Devine have not been criminally charged in this case. Federal prosecutors have also criticized the original death investigation. Their court filings say local officers told the medical examiner there was “no foul play” within about an hour of finding Sandra. They did not compel Farwell's DNA or seize his devices at the time. Years later, federal investigators reworked the same case and obtained evidence they say supports homicide, including DNA evidence tied to the strap at the scene. The defense says that evidence does not erase Sandra's prior struggles. The prosecution says those struggles do not explain away the alleged staging. Jury selection is set for October 5, 2026. Listen Anywhere You Get Podcasts: https://pod.link/1655749292Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

In this episode, Diana and Nicole discuss a challenging search for an Oklahoma death certificate. Nicole shares her experience trying to find the 1928 death record for Margaret Cinderella (Harris) Bone to complete her Kinship Determination Project. Despite knowing Margaret's birth date, death date, and county, Nicole's initial searches on the OK2Explore database fail. She explains how she eventually finds the record by removing the name entirely and searching only by gender, county, and the month and year of death. The index lists the name as "Margotte C. Bane" due to an indexing error. Diana and Nicole analyze the physical certificate to show how cramped forms and overlapping cursive handwriting lead to these indexing mistakes. Listeners learn valuable strategies for overcoming difficult database searches. Nicole and Diana outline several practical lessons, such as reading database search tips and using wildcards like asterisks. They explain why researchers should not assume that databases use phonetic matching. Listeners also learn how to use name-free searches with basic demographic details to bypass transcription errors. Finally, they explain how to analyze date discrepancies between headstones, family Bibles, and official records.  This summary was generated by Google Gemini.

SEASON: 7 EPISODE: 8Episode Overview:Welcome back to Becoming Preferred, the podcast where we equip entrepreneurs and business professionals with the mindsets and strategies to level up their game and become the best version of themselves.Back in Season 1, we were joined by executive leadership coach Shawna Schuh for a conversation that left a lasting mark on our audience. She reminded us that "teams are tired of being told and sold" and that the quality of our answers depends entirely on the mastery of our questions.Fast forward to today: leadership, team dynamics, and workplace expectations have evolved dramatically. But Shawna's core message, that investing in human connection, emotional intelligence, and master-level questioning is the ultimate competitive advantage, and it's more critical now than ever before.Today, Shawna returns to help us navigate the modern leadership landscape, build resilient hybrid cultures, and step out of our own way so we can "choose legendary." Please join me for my conversation with Shawna Schuh.Guest Bio: Shawna Schuh is an executive leadership coach, Certified Speaking Professional (CSP), and master communicator dedicated to helping business leaders unlock their team's full potential. With over three decades of experience, two TEDx talks, and a Master's Certificate in Neuro-Linguistic Programming (NLP), Shawna specializes in guiding executives and entrepreneurs out of operational weeds and into transformative team leadership. Her work focuses on uncovering critical leadership blind spots, elevating emotional intelligence, and building high-trust workplace cultures through intentional communication.As an author and the founder of Schuh Biz Productions, Shawna has presented to and coached teams at organizations ranging from Nike and Columbia Sportswear to major national trade associations. She is renowned for her high-energy, humorous, and deeply practical approach—teaching leaders how to move away from rigid management tactics and embrace powerful questioning strategies that drive genuine engagement and long-term business results.Whether coaching senior executives, guiding cross-generational teams, or speaking on international platforms, Shawna's mission remains constant: equipping leaders to invest in themselves and their people so they can navigate change, cultivate resilience, and become the preferred choice in their industry.Resource Links:Website: https://shawnaschuh.com/Product Link: https://shawnaschuh.com/individual-leaders/Insight Gold Timestamps:02:48 Fear is something we're going to talk about quite a bit.04:18 You highlighted that teams are tired of being told and sold06:58 We're constantly serving our children.

While both prāṇāyāma and modern breathwork involve conscious breathing practices that can influence stress, mood, attention, and overall well-being, their origins, purposes, and underlying frameworks are quite different.Drawing from the Yoga Sūtras of Patañjali, the classical Haṭha Yoga texts, and contemporary scientific research, Amy examines how ancient yogic teachings understood the relationship between breath, prāṇa, and consciousness—and how those teachings compare with modern approaches that focus on nervous system regulation, respiratory physiology, emotional health, and performance.Whether you are a yoga therapist, healthcare professional, yoga teacher, or curious practitioner, this episode offers a deeper understanding of how traditional wisdom and modern science can inform our work with the breath.In This Episode, We Explore:The Sanskrit meaning of prāṇa and āyāmaWhy prāṇāyāma is more than a breathing techniqueThe distinction between breath and prāṇa in classical yogaPrāṇāyāma's place within Patañjali's Eight Limbs of YogaKey teachings from the Yoga Sūtras on breath regulation, concentration, and meditationHow Haṭha Yoga expanded prāṇāyāma through nāḍīs, chakras, kuṇḍalinī, bandhas, and mudrāsThe central role of kumbhaka (breath retention) in traditional practiceClassical prāṇāyāma techniques including Nāḍī Śodhana, Ujjāyī, Bhastrikā, Śītalī, Sūrya Bhedana, and BhrāmarīThe presentation of prāṇāyāma in the Haṭha Yoga Pradīpikā, Śiva Saṃhitā, and Gheraṇḍa SaṃhitāModern breathwork approaches such as diaphragmatic breathing, coherent breathing, box breathing, the Wim Hof Method, and resonance breathing.Scientific perspectives on breathing, including autonomic nervous system regulation, heart rate variability, carbon dioxide tolerance, respiratory physiology, and emotional regulationHow yoga therapists can integrate traditional teachings and contemporary evidence when working with clientsContact Amy Wheeler:www.TheOptimalState.com Optimal State App for iPhone:https://apps.apple.com/us/app/optimal-state/id1604424804 The Yoga Therapy Hour Podcast:https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/yoga-therapy-hour-with-amy-wheeler/id1564687158 School of Integrative Health at NDMU:https://www.ndm.edu/academics/integrative-health Master of Science in Yoga Therapy at NDMU:https://www.ndm.edu/academics/integrative-health/yoga-therapy Explore NDMU's Post-Master's Certificate in Therapeutic Yoga Practices, designed specifically for licensed healthcare professionals:https://www.ndm.edu/academics/integrative-health/yoga-therapy/post-masters-certificate-in-therapeutic-yoga-practices Try our Post-Bac Ayurveda Certification Program at NDMU:https://www.ndm.edu/academics/integrative-health/ayurveda/post-baccalaureate-ayurveda-certification #IntegrativeHealth #HealthcareEducation #InterprofessionalEducation #GraduateSchool #NDMUproud #SOIHproud #SOIHYoga #SOIHAyurveda #NDMUYoga #NDMUAyurveda #SOIHGraduateSchool

Please follow this link to share how PsychArmor has helped you in your service journey Share PsychArmor StoriesAbout Today's GuestPatrick Forystek is a Marine Corps veteran whose journey from combat deployments to higher education leadership has been shaped by a commitment to service, resilience, and helping others succeed. He served from 2008 to 2012 with 1st Battalion, 11th Marines as an artillery cannoneer and section chief, deploying with the 13th Marine Expeditionary Unit and later to Afghanistan in support of Operation Enduring Freedom.Like many veterans, Patrick faced the challenges of transitioning from military service to civilian life and higher education. What began as a search for his own path after the Marine Corps became a calling to help other veterans navigate the same journey. After earning a Bachelor of Arts in English from the University of Michigan-Flint and a Master of Science in Management from Walsh College, he built a career focused on supporting military-connected students and creating opportunities for them to thrive. Today, Patrick serves as Director of the Center for Veterans and Military-Affiliated Students at Michigan State University, where he leads programs, partnerships, and initiatives that support more than 2,500 military-connected students. Throughout his career, he has remained motivated by a simple pay-it-forward philosophy: honoring the mentors, educators, and fellow veterans who helped him succeed by ensuring the next generation has access to the same support, guidance, and sense of community.Patrick's work and advocacy are rooted in the belief that military service does not end when the uniform comes off, but that it evolves into new opportunities to lead, serve, and make a difference in our community and in the lives of others.Links Mentioned During the EpisodeMSU Center for Veterans and Military-Affiliated Students WebsiteCVMAS on InstagramPsychArmor Resource of the WeekThis week's PsychArmor Resource of the Week is the PsychArmor course Choosing a College and Major.

What she discovered was a powerful yet accessible approach that helped her access emotional release, profound stillness, and deeper layers of inner knowing.Together, Amy and Laurie explore:What it means to think of breath as a "portal"The relationship between breath, presence, and self-discoveryHow conscious connected breathwork differs from traditional prāṇāyāma practicesThe role of curiosity, beginner's mind, and willingness in transformational practicesLaurie's experience training with Seven Directions BreathworkWhy trauma-sensitive facilitation and nervous system awareness are essential in breathwork settingsThe importance of agency, choice, and pacing during intense inner experiencesEmotional release, embodiment, and the wisdom that can emerge through breathMusic as a supportive element in the breathwork journeyThe distinction between ethical breathwork facilitation and cathartic group experiencesHow breathwork may support the integration of plant medicine experiencesThe intersection of breathwork, meditation, Yoga Nidra, and contemplative practicePresence as the ultimate goal—not fixing, changing, or seeking a particular outcomeLaurie also shares a deeply personal story about a breathwork session that occurred just hours before the passing of her aunt. The experience became a powerful reflection on love, grief, support, and the mystery of human connection.Throughout the conversation, Amy and Laurie emphasize that conscious connected breathwork is not about chasing extraordinary experiences.

Episode 4214 │ September 3, 2026 The next great monopoly won't be built on oil or data. It'll be built on the paperwork deciding who is allowed to work. That fight is already here. WHAT THIS EPISODE COVERS Scott Kesterson opens with a viral story about a Washington farm run entirely on horsepower and uses it to unravel a much larger crisis — a global collapse in the transmission of skilled trade knowledge as aging workers retire faster than apprentices can be trained, layered against declining birth rates in the US, EU, and Japan that guarantee no demographic fix arrives before 2050. Scott then maps the four-layer corporate architecture already assembling to control this scarcity — aggregation platforms like LinkedIn and Indeed, global compliance and payroll companies like Deal processing $22 billion for 1.5 million workers, union-driven labor mobilization, and, most critically, corporate-owned certification programs like Cisco's decades-old model — arguing that whoever controls the certificate that says a person is qualified to work will own the next great monopoly, built not on oil or data but on paperwork. The episode closes with a nine-point policy framework Scott proposes as the actual solution — incentivizing aging tradesmen to teach, interstate licensing compacts, a citizenship pathway tied to employer verification rather than blanket amnesty or blanket deportation, restoring mandatory trade education in public schools, and a call to see the labor crisis, not immigration or AI fear, as the actual fight for who controls America's future. KEY QUESTIONS ADDRESSED What does the story of a Washington horse-powered farm reveal about the global crisis in trade knowledge transmission — and why does a task like learning to run a working farm without a tractor, which used to pass naturally from one generation to the next, now require up to nine years to learn without an apprenticeship? What is the four-layer corporate labor architecture Scott identifies — aggregation, compliance, mobilization, and certification — and why does he argue that a company owning the certificate that proves someone is qualified to work represents a more consequential monopoly than anything built on oil, software, or data? What is Scott's nine-point policy proposal for solving the labor and demographic crisis — and why does he argue that neither blanket deportation nor blanket amnesty addresses the real problem, while a citizenship pathway tied directly to trade certification and employer verification actually could?
