Christmas catch-ups can be joyful… and also incredibly tense when your kids start noticing that their cousins play by wildly different rules. No screen limits. Loose language. Even underage drinking. In today’s tricky question, Justin and Kylie unpack how to protect your child’s wellbeing without blowing up family relationships — and how to help your kids navigate mixed values with confidence, clarity, and kindness. KEY POINTS Why “forbidden friendships” often backfire — and what to do instead. How to set boundaries without judging extended family. The one conversation to have before a big family catch-up. Why your influence matters more than the cousin’s environment. How to handle major non-negotiables (like alcohol) calmly and clearly. QUOTE OF THE EPISODE “Force creates resistance — but connection creates influence.” RESOURCES MENTIONED Submit your tricky question: happyfamilies.com.au Voice notes: podcasts@happyfamilies.com.au ACTION STEPS FOR PARENTS Have a pre-arming conversation. Ask what your child has noticed and how it makes them feel. Clarify your family values without criticising others. Set non-negotiables (e.g., alcohol, screens) with warmth + firmness. Create positive shared experiences on your terms to keep relationships healthy. Model compassion — kids learn more from how we speak about others than from the rules we set.

Have you ever felt like you're doing meaningful work… yet something inside you knows you're not fully aligned with what you're truly meant to do? Do you sense you have a message, a lesson, or a lived experience that could help others—but you're unsure how to shape it, communicate it, or even recognize its value?What if the story you're already living is the key to your next level of clarity, influence, and impact?In this episode, we sit down with Bill Blankschaen, founder and Chief Story Architect of StoryBuilders—a company devoted to telling stories that make the world a better place by helping leaders turn their ideas into compelling books and learning experiences that multiply their impact, influence, and income.Bill's journey—from Christian school founder and pastor, to stepping into the unknown with six kids and no guaranteed income, to becoming a trusted guide for bestselling authors, entrepreneurs, and thought leaders—reveals the power of knowing your story and telling it well. Through candid reflections on calling, clarity, identity, faith, family leadership, and the “normalcy trap,” Bill shows why most people underestimate the value of their lived experiences—and how storytelling can unlock purpose at home, at work, and in your mission.Whether you're an entrepreneur, parent, mentor, or creator, this episode will help you think differently about who you are, what you've lived, and how your story can change others' lives.Quotes:“Clarity just eliminates friction and draws people to you that you want to be drawn to you. You have to have that clarity before you can expand that influence.”“Your story is about you, but your story isn't for you. You are there to serve someone—your story is there to serve a purpose.”“The battle belongs to God, not to you. Sometimes you need to let go and let Him fight it.”Actionable TakeawaysBreak the “normalcy trap” by naming the value in your own story.Write down three life experiences you've dismissed as “normal,” and ask: How could this help someone who's 5–10 years behind me? This exercise reveals hidden insights you've been overlooking.Clarify your identity before your message.Using Bill's principle that clarity precedes influence, take 10 minutes to answer: Who am I really called to be? Who is my story for—and who is it not for? Identity drives communication, leadership, and purpose.Define the story your family or team is living in right now.Ask yourself: What story am I unconsciously telling at home or at work? Is it an intentional narrative or an accidental one? Pick one tradition, phrase, or practice to reinforce the culture you want to build.Turn one life lesson into a teachable framework.Choose a challenge you've overcome, then outline the three steps someone else could follow. This becomes the foundation for a book chapter, workshop, keynote, or coaching process.Practice surrender by identifying what you're gripping too tightly.Bill shared how breakthrough came when he released control and allowed God to lead. Reflect on one area—business, family, or personal identity—where you need to loosen your grip and allow clarity, peace, or guidance to emerge.ConclusionThis conversation is a powerful reminder that your story is one of your greatest assets—personally, professionally, and spiritually. When you gain clarity about who you are and what your experiences mean, you unlock influence, purpose, and direction.Bill challenges us to stop overlooking the value in our own lives and start telling our stories with intention. Your experiences aren't accidental—they're assignments. And when you share them with clarity and courage, you create impact far beyond yourself.Breakthrough begins when you decide to own your story.
There is a popular adage that says, "If you don't ask, the answer is always 'No'." In this episode, Mark and Darren talk about the benefits of asking for guidance, and how to respond, regardless of the answer. Asking can be your game-changer. SNIPPETS: • The answer is in the asking • When you ask, you can become a mentor magnet • Ask humbly, sincerely, honestly, and respectfully • Learn all you can during your client pre-event call • Ask more than one person/expert • Be coachable and take their advice • Respect their time and expertise • Clarify your intent behind your ask • Don't ask another question until you've followed the previous instructions • Be understanding when the answer is 'No.' • Don't take 'No' personally • If the answer is 'No', ask for a referral or another resource Work with Mark and Darren: https://www.stagetimeuniversity.com/get-a-speaking-coach/ Check Out Stage Time University: https://www.stagetimeuniversity.com
Hope says she and her husband are heading to Durban for the holidays to stay with the in-laws. But now there’s a clash of traditions: her husband wants to drive on Christmas Day because he says there’s less traffic, while her family has always believed you don’t travel on Christmas, New Year’s or Easter it’s bad luck. Now she’s torn between practicality and superstition… and she can’t shake this bad feeling. Is driving on Christmas actually a thing, or is this just a clash of beliefs?

A Chinese foreign ministry spokesperson says Japan should give an honest, accurate and complete clarification of its position on Taiwan.
Chinese officials have questioned what Japan's self-claimed "consistent stance" on the Taiwan region is and whether it still adheres to the one-China principle (04:52). China and Tonga have reaffirmed mutual support and agreed to align major development projects (12:10).

The Modern Therapist's Survival Guide with Curt Widhalm and Katie Vernoy
Surviving Family Gatherings Without Becoming the Family Therapist: Emotional Boundaries for the Holidays Curt Widhalm and Katie Vernoy explore how therapists can navigate family gatherings without slipping into the role of “family therapist.” They discuss emotional boundaries, guilt, codependency, and the importance of authenticity during the holiday season. Learn how to recognize old family patterns, manage emotional triggers, and show up as a whole human (not just a clinician) when family dynamics get complicated. Key Takeaways for Therapists: Therapists often revert to caretaker or mediator roles during family gatherings. Emotional boundaries matter as much as physical ones: protect your energy. “JADE” doesn't go to Thanksgiving: Don't Justify, Argue, Defend, or Explain. It's okay to have emotions and step away from unproductive conversations. Clarify your role (family member, not therapist) and engage authentically.

On this episode I share a principle that shows up again and again in great communication but is often overlooked by professionals: you have to earn attention before you earn understanding. Too many presentations, meetings, and messages begin with dense context, background, or data. But audiences don't start in "information-processing mode." They start in attention mode — scanning for relevance. If the opening doesn't grab them, the content that follows doesn't land. The core idea of this episode is simple but transformative: Engage first. Then inform. Attention Is the Gatekeeper We live in a world of constant distraction. Phones buzz, inboxes refill, and meetings stack back-to-back. You can't assume your audience is ready to absorb information the moment you begin. That's why starting with engagement is essential. As the episode puts it, if the first thing your audience hears is a spreadsheet, a data table, or a wall of bullets, "their brains will tune out before the thinking begins." Engagement isn't entertainment — it's a form of cognitive kindness. It tells your audience: Stay with me. This matters. What Engagement Really Means Engagement doesn't require charisma or theatrics. Instead, it's about delivering an emotional or intellectual spark that primes the brain for meaning. In the episode, you highlight several practical ways to create that spark: Start with a story — even a single sentence can establish stakes or human connection. Lead with a recommendation — clarity itself is engaging. Share a surprising fact — novelty triggers curiosity. Pose a thought-provoking question — questions pull the audience mentally into the conversation. Create simple tension — the gap between "where things are" and "where things could be." These techniques aren't gimmicks. They are proven attention triggers that open the door for the logic and evidence that come next. Why Engagement Works The episode lays out the psychology clearly: engagement activates emotion, and emotion primes the brain for comprehension. This echoes Aristotle's frameworks — Pathos sets the stage for Logos. When your audience feels something — interest, tension, surprise — they become more open to understanding and retaining information. Engagement isn't a bonus. It's the bridge between attention and insight. Then Inform: Delivering the Content Once you've earned attention, now you can deliver the substance. The episode reinforces a familiar structure for this phase: Lead with the key recommendation Share the top supporting reasons Present only the evidence necessary to make the case Clarify implications, risks, or next steps Make a clear request or action This sequence works because the mind prefers clarity before detail, destination before map. Engagement at the start makes this structure even more powerful: the brain is now on board and ready to follow. Avoiding Gimmicks Importantly, the episode emphasizes what not to do. Engaging first is not about jokes, theatrics, or forced "TED-ification." The goal isn't to "perform." The goal is to help your audience stay with you long enough to understand you. Engagement is the runway. Information is the flight. Both matter, but one must come first. A Leadership Habit Professionals who learn to engage first don't just communicate more effectively — they lead more effectively. Audiences trust them faster, stay with them longer, and remember their message more clearly. Before your next email, meeting, or presentation, try asking: What's my hook? Why will this matter to my audience right now? What moment will pull them in before I deliver the data? If you start there, the rest of your communication will feel smoother, clearer, and more compelling. Because if you want people to listen, you have to earn their attention. Only then can you earn their understanding.

Your life today is the result of the choices you've made—and the ones you've avoided. In this eye-opening message from Jasher 28, Bishop Omar reveals how two brothers—Jacob and Esau—shared the same upbringing but chose completely different paths. Jacob pursued the instruction of the Lord for 32 years under Shem and Eber; Esau refused to go, choosing comfort over calling.This message exposes the danger of spiritual complacency and reminds us that faith isn't inherited—it's chosen. You'll learn to evaluate your decisions through three dimensions:Spiritual – Are you prayerless or ignoring God's voice?Physical – Are your emotions driving your choices?Psychological – Are you stuck in blame or excuses?The lesson is simple but life-changing: Clarify. Consider. Choose. Stop seeking wisdom from dead sources when you have access to the Living God. This could be the day your wisdom begins to reign.

This is a deep dive into the psychology of performance, leadership, and mindset — from survival mode to peak potential.Key Takeaways:- Fear is context. Whether it's life-or-death or payroll-on-Friday, your nervous system can't tell the difference.- Awareness first. You can't out-work a pattern you don't even know exists.- The three stress defaults: go harder, play nice, or prove them wrong — and how each can quietly destroy progress.- Performance ≠ pressure. You can achieve big goals without the emotional chaos that usually comes with them.- Future-first focus. Clarify what you want, identify the bottleneck, and only then explore what's holding you back.- Toxic achievement is real. Hustle built on resentment or a chip on your shoulder burns fast and leaves you empty.- Coaching that works creates results. Healing is part of growth, but measurable impact keeps it grounded and real.If this episode hit home, send it to a friend who needs a mindset reset.

Is it possible that knowing too much is actually standing between you and the clients you want? In this episode of Consulting Matters, I'm unpacking one of the sneakiest barriers to clear communication—the curse of knowledge. After years of mastering our craft, it's easy for consultants and coaches like us to forget what it's like to not know what we know. That's when jargon, industry terms, and virtue-driven statements start creeping into our messaging. And while they make us feel credible, they often leave potential clients feeling lost, disconnected, or even a little dumb. I'll walk you through: Why it's so easy for experts to fall into the curse of knowledge trap The most common ways it shows up in your messaging—through jargon, vague statements, and virtue signaling The story of how a dinner conversation with a Google executive completely changed the way I talk about what I do A simple but powerful way to shift your focus from you to your ideal clients so your message finally clicks By the end of this episode, you'll see how to take the spotlight off of yourself, get out of your head, and start using your clients' own language to describe the value you create. Where to Dive In: (00:00) The Curse of Knowledge Trap(04:12) The Curse of Knowledge Trap Explained(09:03) Mastering Brand Messaging for Client Success Three Next Steps: Audit your messaging: Read your website or LinkedIn “About” section out loud. Notice where you might be using words your clients wouldn't naturally say. Listen for client language: Record your discovery calls or review client surveys. Highlight the exact words they use to describe their challenges and goals—and use those in your copy. Clarify your “who” before your “what”: Get clear on who your ideal client is, what problem they're trying to solve, and what's standing in their way before you talk about your services.

Through the Dicastery of the Doctrine of the Faith, the Vatican recently published a document called "Mater Populi Fidelis," or "Mother of the Faithful People of God," which clarifies different titles for the Blessed Virgin Mary. Father Dave explains the purpose of this document, specifically in reference to the Vatican's rejection of labeling Mary "co-redemptrix" or "co-mediatrix."
By Adam Turteltaub There are few parts of an investigation that are more stressful than the interview with the investigation's subject. Done right it can close all the loops. Done wrong, everything can unravel. To learn how to handle things best we turn in the second of our two podcasts on investigations to Wendy Evans, Senior Corporate Ethics Investigator, Lockheed Martin and Georgina Heasman, Senior Manager, Global Investigations at Booking Holdings. The two of them are the co-authors of our new book Fundamentals of Investigations: A Practical Guide and lead our Fundamentals of Compliance Investigations Workshop. In this podcast they offer a host of great insights including: While it's generally best to interview the subject last, there are times, such as in cases of alleged harassment or data theft, where you likely will need to sit down for a preliminary interview sooner Be sure to get a read on the subject and be respectful of the stress that they are under, including giving them psychological space before asking tough questions Clarify your role in the process as a collector of facts and that you have not already decided that they are guilty Invite them to share their perspective both in the interview and, if other things come to mind, afterwards Remind them of the confidentiality of the process and the need to focus on the allegation, not who made it Listen in to learn more, and be sure to investigate their book Fundamentals of Investigations: A Practical Guide and the Fundamentals of Compliance Investigations Workshop.
In this episode of The FACTS Podcast, Stephen Boyce breaks down the Vatican's newest doctrinal note, Mater Populi Fidelis, issued by the Dicastery for the Doctrine of the Faith in November 2025. This document reaffirms Christ as the sole Mediator while clarifying the Church's language about Mary's cooperation in redemption and her unique maternal role in the life of the Church.We examine why the Vatican discourages titles such as Co-Redemptrix and Mediatrix of All Graces, how this statement fits into historic Marian teaching, and what it means for theology, devotion, and ecumenical dialogue going forward.Article: https://www.vatican.va/roman_curia/congregations/cfaith/documents/rc_ddf_doc_20251104_mater-populi-fidelis_en.html#FACTSPodcast #StephenBoyce #MaterPopuliFidelis #VaticanDocument #MarianDoctrine #Mariology #CatholicTeaching #MaryAndSalvation #VaticanClarification #DoctrinalNote #CatholicTheology #MaryMotherOfGod

On Healthy Mind, Healthy Life, host Avik Chakraborty speaks with scientist-turned-career strategist Caroline Sangal, founder of Next Success and host of Your Next Success. Caroline breaks down mental fitness, resilience, and career alignment—how high achievers can stop chasing external markers and start designing work that supports health, relationships, and meaning. She shares her own pivot from R&D and executive recruiting, the neuroscience behind upgrading unhelpful mental “operating systems,” and practical steps to pause, assess, and realign. About the guest : Caroline Sangal, PhD is a former chemical industry R&D leader and executive recruiter who now guides professionals through evidence-based career transitions. She blends data, discernment, and empathy in her Next Success Method, integrating natural abilities, communication style, mental fitness, and a life-first career vision. Key takeaways : Mental fitness = response under stress. It's the trained ability to respond rather than react when plans derail (e.g., the “late dinner order” story). Upgrade the OS. Many adults run childhood-formed mental patterns (people-pleasing, hyper-control, hyper-achieve). These can be retrained via targeted practice and micro-exercises. Resilience is trainable. Like strength training, repeated cognitive drills build calmer, clearer responses and better decisions in interviews, leadership, and home life. Life vision first, career second. Clarify eight factors—stage, abilities, skills, interests, personal style, communication behavior, family context, goals/values—then align roles accordingly. Spot self-sabotage. Use assessments to identify dominant “saboteurs” (e.g., hyper-vigilant, pleaser, victim) and replace them with constructive mental habits. Listen to the body. Ignoring stress shows up as health and relationship costs; realignment improves well-being and presence with family. Start now: Pause → Assess → Act. Audit daily energy givers/drainers; visualize a life you actually want; take one aligned action this week.Community-Guidelines Check: The transcript contains no content that violates YouTube, Facebook, Instagram, or LinkedIn community standards.

Sometimes a setback does more than stop you; it reroutes you. Petra Zink is a Brand & Business Growth Strategist, Keynote Speaker, and Author who helps executives and founders turn their reputation into scalable revenue. She's the founder of impaCCCt and The360Talent.Co, host of the Trusted Authority™ Podcast, and author of Trusted Authority: From Unknown to Known. Originally from Austria, Petra has been living in Australia for 16 years after coming for a six-month stay. Her journey started after being put on a performance improvement plan instead of getting the promotion she expected. Petra developed the impaCCCt framework based on a simple observation: when she asked recruitment candidates what they wanted, they all said "I want to make an impact," but few could explain what that actually looked like. Petra turned that insight into a challenge: how do you turn something so abstract into a process anyone can follow? The result was her impaCCCt framework, built around three pillars—Clarify, Communicate, and Commercialize. Petra also shares why foundation work is essential, how she condensed her program into an intensive full-day immersion, and why working out loud with experiments beats playing it safe. Key Takeaways: Your Beliefs Plus Your Behavior Build Your Brand. If you don't believe you're good enough, you won't take the actions to reshape how you're seen. Get Reps In Before Seeking Perfection. Start with small experiments rather than waiting for the perfect business model. The Three O's of Credibility Matter. Build your own credibility. Tap into other people's credibility through association. Create on-the-go credibility by working out loud. Foundation Work Is Unsexy But Essential. Positioning yourself takes time and isn't visible, but without it, your marketing assets mean nothing. Speed Creates Better Results. The faster you get assets out there, the quicker you get feedback to refine what works. Work Out Loud With Stretch Goals. Set ambitious experiments and document the journey publicly so people can help you.

AP correspondent Ed Donahue reports on the White House stand on nuclear testing.
Leaders, you might call it flexibility, but your team calls it chaos. Tammy J. Bond cuts through the "hybrid fantasy" that believes simple Slack chats can replace connection, clarity, and collaboration. She exposes the silent culture split created by hybrid models, arguing that failure is rooted not in location, but in disconnection and unstable leadership. This episode provides the strategic framework for leaders to start intentionally engineering trust to make hybrid work successful. Key Leadership Insights & Hard Truths: The Hybrid Fantasy: The belief that a few Zoom calls and Slack channels can organically thread connection and clarity is false. Studies show this level of casual connection does not suffice. The Culture Split: Hybrid work creates division. Office workers resent remote workers (assuming they work less), and remote workers feel invisible and disconnected from impromptu "hallway decisions." The Core Problem: Hybrid teams fail because of disconnection, not location. Leaders often confuse visibility (screen time) with actual productivity and meaningful engagement. The Unstable Wi-Fi is You: "It's not the Wi-Fi that's unstable in their work environment, it's your leadership connection to them." The Danger of Over-Accommodation: Leaders often say yes to every schedule to "keep the peace," under-communicate, and mismanage accountability, leading to performance issues and the language of assumption ("I thought you meant," "I assumed"). Friendship is Not a Strategy: Leader, you haven't changed you yet. Simply offering a hybrid model won't work if you haven't sharpened your own leadership skills in setting clear expectations. 4 Pillars of Intentional Hybrid Leadership: Re-establish Shared Rhythm (Not Just Scheduling): Replace random meetings with rituals (e.g., Monday Momentum check-ins, Friday Feedback sessions, a 30-second Praise Celebration). Use communication tools for quick, bottom-line check-ins, not endless dialogues. Define Outcomes, Not Hours: If you are measuring success by online status or screen time, "you're running a daycare, not a business." Clarify what "done well" and "complete" looks like, using the simple SBI+E Model (Situation, Behavior, Impact, Expectation) for performance feedback. Rebuild Connection Intentionally: Hybrid trust must be engineered on purpose. This involves celebrating small wins out loud, pairing up office/remote partners, and creating non-meeting connection moments (like a remote "Drink and Think"). Stop Letting Convenience Replace Courage: You must have the bold conversations. Ask what's working/not working, and if a hybrid worker claims higher productivity, tie it to an objective desk audit of project updates, timelines, and KPIs. Shut up and listen, then ask the next best follow-up question. Actionable Challenge for Leaders: Your job this week is to define the rules of your Hybrid Sandbox before chaos defines them for you: Audit your team's rhythms. Clarify expectations in one single conversation. Have your team email you back what they heard you say and what you can count on them for. Create one connection moment that does not involve another meeting (e.g., a team "drink (coffee/tea) & think" session).
