Your first month as a leader matters—don't let the momentum fade.In this week's episode of Promoted: Stop Doubting, Start Leading, Karen Gombault breaks down what really needs to happen in the critical first 30 days of a new leadership role. The initial excitement has worn off, the hallway hellos have faded, and now all eyes are on you to lead.This episode delivers five strategic moves to help you transition from being the “new hire” to a respected, trusted leader who gets things done—without falling into the trap of overthinking, overworking, or burning out.Whether you've just stepped into a new role or want to reset your leadership presence, this episode will help you lead with confidence and intention in the moments that matter most.5 KEY TAKEAWAYS:1. Clarify your mandate—don't assume alignment. Ask your boss directly: “What does success look like in 90 days?” Get it in writing and compare it with what your team expects. Misalignment erodes trust fast.2. Define your leadership style early. Let your team know how you operate—your preferences, boundaries, and expectations. Consistency builds psychological safety and makes you easier to follow.3. Deliver a visible, meaningful win. Find a low-risk, high-impact problem to solve. Don't wait for people to notice—communicate what you did and why it matters.4. Deepen relationships with key players. Schedule check-ins with your boss, your team, and key peers. Use “reverse feedback” meetings to invite trust and collaboration.5. Anchor yourself emotionally. Imposter syndrome often kicks in by week four. Keep a list of what's working and give yourself credit—your brain needs proof that you're making progress.“People this month might not be giving you polite in the hallway anymore. And they're looking and starting to judge—which by the way is completely normal.” - Karen GombaultBy the end of your first month, you're no longer the new person. You're the leader. This episode gives you the practical steps to solidify trust, define your leadership brand, and stay grounded while pressure builds. Start making intentional choices that build your credibility from day one.RESOURCES & NEXT STEPS:Free Resource: Build Your Visibility At Work → https://www.karengombault.com/getnoticedStart with Catalyst – A focused 6-week coaching sprint to solve one real leadership challenge with strategy, momentum, and results.

It's hard to keep track of all the conversations about AI in the workplace. So don't feel bad if you find yourself getting overwhelmed or lost in it all.I recently listened to an interview with Karen Hao, an award-winning journalist and author of the book Empire of AI. One thing she said that I wanted to share with you is:“AI is such an interesting word because it's sort of like the word transportation in that you have bicycles, you have gas guzzling trucks, you have rocket ships. They're all forms of transportation, but they all serve different purposes and they have different cost-benefit trade-offs." It's a good reminder. When you're thinking about AI in the work place, take a moment to clarify the conversation and what, specifically, people are talking about when they're talking about AI.Listen to Karen Hao's interview on Spotify or Apple Podcasts.What conversations are you having -- or not having -- about AI at work?

In this episode of "Rise Up, Live Joy Your Way," Kamini Wood emphasizes that boundaries are essential guidelines for healthy relationships and personal peace, often misunderstood as walls that push people away. As a "recovering people pleaser," Kamini shares her own struggle with setting boundaries, initially viewing them as rude or mean, but now understanding them as "fences" that allow for connection and deeper, healthier relationships. She introduces her "FENCES" framework: Focus on your needs, Express them kindly, Navigate expectations transparently, Clarify consequences, Ensure consistency, and Stay grounded. Kamini acknowledges that setting boundaries can be scary and may elicit negative reactions from others, especially those who benefited from the lack of boundaries previously. However, she stresses that these reactions often open the door for healthier communication and that boundaries are ultimately for one's own well-being and to foster healthier dynamics. She advises starting with small boundaries to build confidence and concludes by reiterating that boundaries can lead to more authentic and respectful connections.Discover more powerful tips and guidance here: https://www.kaminiwood.com/blog/Learn more about my coaching services: https://www.kaminiwood.com/services/Follow me for more empowering inspiration and guidance:https://www.instagram.com/itsauthenticme/https://www.facebook.com/itsauthenticme/https://www.pinterest.com/itsauthenticme/

Navigating Risk, Noise, and Uncertainty: Barry Ritholtz on Investing in a Volatile World In my conversation with Barry Ritholtz, chairman of Ritholtz Wealth Management and host of Bloomberg's “Masters in Business” podcast, we explored market and real estate cycles, caution, and capital allocation in today's increasingly unpredictable economic environment. Below are the most actionable and provocative takeaways for real estate investors, both passive and professional, drawn from Barry's decades of lessons and market observations. Origins of Insight: From Blog to Bloomberg Ritholtz didn't set out to run a multi-billion-dollar firm. What started as daily trading notes eventually evolved into a blog, a book, Bailout Nation, and a platform that positioned him to correctly call both the top and bottom of the 2008 financial crisis. This journey, grounded in curiosity and behavioral finance, shaped the contrarian and data-driven approach he still employs today. "I just wanted to know why some people made money while others didn't doing the same thing." The 2008 Playbook: Behavioral Edge Over Economic Models Ritholtz attributes his early warning of the Global Financial Crisis (GFC) to non-traditional thinking and real estate roots (his mother was a real estate agent). Observing abnormal refinancing activity and "cash-out mania" led him to investigate securitized debt and derivative risk, well before it was mainstream. He reverse-engineered risk from Reinhart & Rogoff's crisis research and famously predicted the Dow's decline to ~6,800—earning mockery initially, then vindication. Echoes of 2008? Why This Time Feels Precarious While he stops short of predicting a crisis, Ritholtz allows for a 10–15% probability of a self-inflicted depression – a worst-case scenario rooted not in structural weakness, but political mismanagement. “It [is an] asymmetrical risk to take one bullet, put it in a six shooter, spin the wheel, and put it up against your head with a $28 trillion economy.” From tariffs to immigration policy to fiscal gamesmanship, Ritholtz sees signs that the U.S. may be eroding the long-standing trust that underpins reserve currency status and global capital flows. Cash Isn't a Plan, Discipline Is When asked whether it makes sense to sit in cash and wait out the next downturn, Ritholtz counters with behavioral caution. Historically, those who “go to cash” rarely reenter at the right time and often miss the rebound entirely. “If you're going to sit out in cash, do you have the temperament, the discipline to get back in?” Instead, he recommends building resilience: modest leverage, long-term focus, and capital efficiency – hallmarks of legends like Sam Zell, who Ritholtz holds up as a model of disciplined real estate investing. A Word on Leverage: Use with Extreme Care High leverage is the common thread in stories of ruin. Ritholtz referenced the downfall of the Peloton CEO, who borrowed heavily against inflated stock. The same caution applies to over-leveraged real estate investors, especially those who haven't endured a full cycle. “Market crashes are where capital returns to its rightful owners.” For CRE sponsors, now is the time to refinance where possible, preserve cash, and maintain flexibility, even if that means lower IRR projections. How to Filter the Noise: Create an Information Diet Ritholtz emphasized the need to tune out “financial candy from strangers” – the firehose of social media, Substacks, and hot takes by unvetted commentators. “They don't know your zip code, your goals, your tax bracket. Why would you trust them?” He recommends identifying a shortlist of credible voices with defined, rational processes and a record of sound judgment. “Build your A-Team,” he advises. “Then ignore the rest.” Real Estate Today: Not Monolithic, but Multifaceted Unlike equities, real estate behaves very differently depending on location, asset class, and capital structure. While some sectors (e.g., Class B office) remain distressed, others (e.g., data centers, multifamily in select markets, industrial) are faring relatively well. “Literally, there are properties [Zell] held for half a century. He was long term… used modest amounts of leverage, and he bought great properties at even better prices.” Ritholtz warns against painting real estate with a broad brush and urges nuanced thinking about cycles, risk-adjusted return, and operator quality. Sentiment vs. Signals: What to Watch Now While he downplays the predictive power of investor sentiment, Ritholtz monitors: Three-month moving averages of non-farm payrolls Rounded tops in S&P earnings trends Residential real estate supply conditions in key metros Dollar strength (as a proxy for confidence and capital flows) “If the dollar keeps falling and supply starts rising in housing markets, it's time to pay attention.” Dollar, Debt, and the Doomsayers Ritholtz is blunt about the debt debate. He finds most public discourse alarmist and often wrong. With the U.S. still enjoying reserve currency privileges, he sees no imminent collapse but warns against complacency. “We've been hearing the deficit will destroy America for 50 years. It hasn't. But bad policy could.” He is more concerned with underinvestment in infrastructure and human capital than with rising debt levels per se. Closing Counsel for Investors For those sitting on fresh capital, say $1 million, Ritholtz advises: Clarify your goals (retirement, education, housing). Max out tax-advantaged accounts. Build a core of low-cost index exposure. Don't chase alpha before securing beta. Avoid overcomplexity: “Two dozen funds is not a portfolio.” His parting message? Discipline beats prediction. And humility is a superpower. Final Thought “Everyone is faking it to some degree. The real danger isn't what you don't know – it's not knowing what you don't know.” In an age of volatility and noise, Ritholtz's framework stands out: stay informed, stay skeptical, and invest like risk is real – because it is. *** In this series, I cut through the noise to examine how shifting macroeconomic forces and rising geopolitical risk are reshaping real estate investing.

The stories we tell ourselves have an enormous impact on our feelings, and so often – especially in our relationships – we can tell ourselves stories that aren't true. Assumptions about what other people are thinking and feeling can quickly become hidden landmines in our relationships.

This skill has two parts to it: first, how to stop mind reading. And second, how to clarify expectations. I think you're going to find this conversation both thought-provoking and really practical.

Title: Practicing the Way — Living Out Your CallingMain Texts: Ephesians 2:8–10; Matthew 3:16–17; Acts 9; Romans 1:1; Colossians 3:23–24Big Idea: You were created on purpose, for a purpose. Your identity is rooted in Christ, your calling flows from that identity, and your assignments are how you live it out.Key Points:Identity: Who You AreYour identity is not based on your performance, people's opinions, or what you have.It is anchored in the grace of God—“By grace you have been saved… not by works.” (Eph 2:8–10)You are God's poiēma—His workmanship, His masterpiece, His new creation.You are not what you do—you are who God says you are: beloved, child, disciple.Jesus' Identity Before MinistryBefore Jesus did anything public, the Father declared: “This is my Son, whom I love; with Him I am well pleased.”Our identity is not achieved—it's received.Everything Jesus did flowed from who He already was. The same is true for us.Calling: Your WhyYour calling is how you carry your identity into the world.It is shaped by your story—your pain, your passions, your personality.Calling is not a job title—it's a theme that shows up wherever you go.You are called to embody and express the love of Jesus in every sphere of life.The Apostle Paul is a powerful example: God didn't erase who Paul was—He redeemed it and used it for His mission.Assignment: Your Where and WhatAssignment is the current way your calling is being expressed.Assignments change—calling does not.Paul was a church planter and a tentmaker. In every season, he lived out his calling—even when the setting changed.What seems small or unspiritual might actually be sacred in God's plan.What About You?Are you neglecting your current assignment because it seems beneath you?Are you bitter that your role doesn't look like your dream?God might be using this “ordinary” assignment to prepare you for something eternal.Colossians 3:23–24 reminds us: Whatever you do… do it for the Lord.Final Challenge:Step into your identity. Clarify your calling. Embrace your assignment.And if you're unsure where to start—just start serving. God already has good works prepared for you. Your job is simply to walk in them.

Shame in Supervision – Creative Learning During an Academic Break In Episode 342 of the Counselling Tutor Podcast, your hosts Rory Lees-Oakes and Ken Kelly take us through this week's three topics: Firstly in ‘Ethical, Sustainable Practice', we explore the art of apologising as a counsellor - why it matters, how to do it effectively, and how to avoid making it about yourself. Then in ‘Practice Matters', Rory speaks with Dr. Ruth Birkbeck about a powerful and often unspoken topic: shame in supervision. We explore what it looks like, how it can impact both supervision and client work, and what can be done to repair it. And lastly in ‘Student Services', Rory and Ken look at how you can make the most of your academic break with creative learning - offering tips for staying engaged without overwhelming yourself or contaminating your core training. The Art of Apologising as a Counsellor [starts at 03:10 mins] In this section, Rory and Ken explore what makes a meaningful apology in the therapeutic relationship. Key points include: Apologising isn't part of most training, yet it's crucial when a rupture occurs in therapy. A well-placed apology can strengthen the therapeutic relationship and model healthy repair. An apology should focus on the client's experience, not your own discomfort. Avoid justifying your behaviour or offloading guilt onto the client. Principles of a meaningful apology: Clarify your intention – Why are you apologising? Acknowledge the impact – Understand how your action affected the client. Resist the urge to justify – Don't make excuses or shift the focus. Take ownership – Use “I” statements to show accountability. Invite the client's response – Open the door to dialogue. Don't expect forgiveness – That's the client's choice, not your right. Repair the rupture – Explore what can be done to rebuild trust. Tolerate discomfort – Apologising can feel hard, but it's part of ethical practice. Shame in Supervision [starts at 29:12 mins] In this week's Practice Matters, Rory speaks with Dr. Ruth Birkbeck about the impact of shame in supervision. The key points of this discussion include: Shame in supervision can silence supervisees and damage the working alliance. Common causes include: Judging or criticising supervisees' clinical decisions. Idealising supervisees and ignoring their vulnerabilities. Expecting them to know everything, especially in second trainings. Shame often results in withdrawal, silence, and loss of trust. Supervisees may internalise shame and stop bringing important issues to supervision. How to avoid shaming supervisees: Be aware of your own power and possible transference. Stay curious rather than critical. Show your own vulnerability, e.g. by talking about past mistakes. Openly name and repair ruptures if you suspect shame has occurred. Create an attuned, safe supervisory relationship that allows for growth. Shame often arises not from what was said, but from how it was experienced. Creative Learning During an Academic Break [starts at 53:10 mins] In this section, Rory and Ken offer advice on how to use your academic break effectively without overwhelming yourself or stepping outside your core training model. Tips for creative learning: Avoid cross-modality contamination – If you're training in one modality, don't dive deep into others during a break. Focus on areas that are universal and always useful: Counselling skills Personal development Professional ethics Use your break to: Review past material to reinforce what you've already learned. Read ahead if you know the next module topic. Connect with peers through study groups or online communities. Watch live skills demos to see techniques in action. Other ideas: Explore special interest CPD (e.g. grief, young people,

This episode offers crucial advice for homeowners seeking to hire pond contractors, aiming to prevent them from being exploited by unscrupulous individuals. Your host, Eric Triplet, along with his team, outlines ten essential questions homeowners should ask a contractor before engaging their services. These questions cover vital aspects such as licensing, insurance, warranties, project timelines, and communication protocols. The discussion emphasizes the importance of due diligence and recognizing red flags, drawing on real-world examples of homeowners who faced significant losses due to unreliable contractors. Ultimately, the podcast seeks to empower homeowners to make informed decisions and ensure a positive experience when investing in a pond project. Key Takeaways: Always verify that a contractor is licensed, bonded, and insured, as this provides accountability and protection. Be willing to pay for a contractor's initial site visit or design consultation, as this often indicates a service-oriented approach rather than a desperate, persuasive one. Clarify all guarantees on workmanship and how the contractor handles product warranties, understanding their protocol for addressing issues after installation. Establish a clear project timeline and daily communication expectations to stay informed about progress and avoid misunderstandings. Ask to visit completed projects and speak with past clients to gain firsthand insight into the contractor's work quality and customer satisfaction.

You'll discover how to:· Use simple questions to build deep rapport fast· Read hidden cues of interest or danger· Avoid becoming someone's therapist instead of their partnerSo ask yourself:
Are you a teacher, homeschool hybrid leader, or microschool founder who feels overwhelmed by marketing your school? You're not alone—and you don't need to become a full-time marketer to attract the right families. In this episode, we're diving deep into the real, raw struggles of building a microschool from the ground up—juggling curriculum, enrollment, communication, and finances—while trying to find students who actually belong in your program. Makenzie shares the exact struggles she faced in Years 1–3 of launching her microschool—from having no enrollment system, no marketing consistency, and no follow-up strategy—to finally unlocking the systems that grew her school from 6 to 12, then 18 students in her living room… to 50… and now over 100 projected. If you've ever thought: “I'm not a salesperson.” “Marketing feels awkward.” “I just want to help kids and make a difference.” Then the Microschool Marketing Blueprint was made for you. This step-by-step course is packed with the foundational systems every microschool or homeschool hybrid needs to enroll students with confidence—and implement real growth strategies in as little as 3–6 weeks. Whether you're in Year 1 or stabilizing in Year 3, this is the marketing mentorship you've been praying for.
What if the real breakthrough you and your clients need isn't in the mind—but in the body? In this powerful solo episode, Jennifer Jimenez, 7-figure coach and creator of Transcendance, reveals how the power of movement can unlock emotional blocks, create lasting transformation, and supercharge your coaching results—no choreography required.Whether you've been stuck in procrastination, resisting action, or struggling with overthinking, this episode offers four simple movement tools that bypass the mental chatter and shift you into aligned action. You'll also discover exactly how to introduce movement into your coaching practice—even if you're not a “movement person”—and how to use these tools to anchor success, unlock insight, and amplify joy.
Send us a textSPONSOR: Briefcase MarketingAll good things must come to an end. After 187 episodes spanning more than three years, we're signing off with our final Question of Faith podcast. But don't worry—this isn't a somber farewell, but rather a reflection on life's transitions and what truly matters.We open with a profound realization that's hit each of us at different points in ministry: while we take our work seriously, the Church continues regardless of our individual contributions. As Fr. Eric puts it, "If I don't do my job, there'll still be people in the Seminary, because it's God who calls, not me." This humbling truth has taught us to hold our roles with a "loose grip," recognizing that our legacy isn't found in buildings bearing our names or possessions that burden others after we're gone.The timing of our finale coincides with organizational changes within the Diocese of Cleveland, where divisions are being combined and new ministries are emerging. While we can't share all the details just yet, we're excited about what's next. And how fitting that we record just after Pentecost, when the Holy Spirit empowered the apostles to spread the Gospel in new languages—a beautiful redemption of the Tower of Babel story that once divided humanity.SPONSOR: Briefcase MarketingAt Briefcase Marketing, we create marketing that inspires action and delivers results. We will:Clarify your message to attract the right audience.Streamline your website to convert more visitors into customers, donors or volunteers.Create consistency to build trust and deepen relationships across every marketing platform (Emails, Ads, Social Media, Etc).Check out some of their successful clients and their most recent client, Doyle Med.WomankindTheology of the Body CLESt. John Cantius ParishBetween theological reflections, we answer one final question about fasting before Communion (it's one hour before receiving, not before Mass begins), share softball league updates, and reminisce about memorable moments from our podcast journey. Throughout it all, our conversation maintains that blend of depth and lighthearted banter that's defined Question of Faith from day one.Though this chapter closes, our ministries continue. We're not disappearing—you'll still find us serving throughout the Diocese of Cleveland, just in evolving roles. As we say in our final moments: "It's not goodbye, it's see you later." Thank you for being part of our journey. Special thanks to Dan Fuerst our sponsor at Briefcase Marketing. May the questions of faith continue to guide your path forward.

Quick overview of Mind Mirror for those who missed the first podcast. Artificial intelligence is used to give a risk assessment of someone who potentially has a concussion. Correlation is one element used to determine if the patient has a concussion Coming straight in from bright light, which could restrict the pupils, but the correlation should be the same. Light intensity, fatigue, and cold can affect pupils. Taking Nyquil or something that makes you groggy or sluggish will negatively impact the test results. Hit the maximum restriction in one second or less; it should not be three or more seconds. The Athletic Trainer needs to know what is currently going on with the athlete. Age can also have a very slow response, which is why the app looks at other factors. PLR - healthy score indicates a high probability that the athlete does not have a concussion. A score lower than .8 indicates a high probability that the athlete does have a concussion. Caffeine's effect? Caffeine can constrict the pupils; in Emma's case, her pupils were very constricted due to a possible combination of the caffeine and light restriction. You can use a light meter to help tell if the pupils are restricted. Mind Mirror's Indoor versus Outdoor differential? Try to do it in a shaded area or inside, and try to do it in an area that does not affect pupils Does it matter if you do the baseline test or the after-incident test? Exact same test, just allows them to segment the data. Will the administrator be able to see the results in the app? Yes When using the Mind Mirror app it asks test result is normal or not normal before we see the results. Should we be able to see that before? SOAP, what did you observe? Did you observe things in a normal or abnormal state? Are things normal? They will be removed in the next version. Clarify the colors a little more. One of our results showed .09 and was orange. Color scheme: green, light orange, to red An extremely low score should have shown up in red Will look into why it did not come up as red, yellow ,or orange is trending toward higher risk How is the new prototype with more biomarkers coming along? Starting development, exposing to customers, they do their observation and send notes back, send observations ,the advance score of the risk probability, the advanced model is now currently being combined into the app Does the environment of the test matter? It seemed we got different results from indoors vs. outdoors in the shade. Lighting does matter Is there any more research you would like to do in the future? What do you want to prove? There are very few studies on female athletes and brain studies, not a lot of info, looking into studies on female rugby, looking at a lot of studies of different ages, not a lot of info on studies How do you intend to begin selling the product when it is ready? Will it be a monthly service? A one-time fee? Discounts for bulk pricing(multiple accounts)? A variety of pricing models, the goal is to get it into the hands of as many people as possible Youth leagues and high schools are a bulk price, $5.00 for 1 year or $2.50 for 3 years Could you ever see Mind Mirror being bought out and implemented in one of the other concussion testing systems? Have had conversations with Sway to provide them with an objective measurement. Healthy Roster, incorporating MindMirror results into the system. The goal is to add sensors to help tell if protective gear should be added, and telehealth The next model will have biomarkers for risk, age, and other health issues Contact: Mind Mirror - info@mindmirror.health Glenn Bowers - glennb@mindmirror.health Ben Stephenson - https://www.instagram.com/_benstephenson/ Emma Gunnin - Jeremy - @SportsMedicineBroadcast on IG
We all want teams that are energized, engaged, and operating at full potential. The key? Tap into what truly drives people. When we leverage strengths and give flexibility around how work gets done, we create an environment where people don't just perform—they thrive. It starts with knowing our team members well and aligning their work with what lights them up. From there, we shift from rigid expectations to empowering autonomy—keeping the “why” and “what” clear while letting the “how” be a co-creation. Trust deepens when we take the time to connect beneath the surface, share our own leadership purpose, and show real vulnerability. That's when teams bring their best—not because they have to, but because they want to.Key Takeaways:1. Lead with Strengths. Recognize and align work with what energizes each team member to unlock resilience, flow, and creativity.2. Flex the How, Anchor the Why. Be clear on purpose and outcomes, but flexible on the path forward to fuel ownership and innovation.3. Know What's Below the Surface. Get curious about what drives behavior and create space for deeper understanding and connection.4. Lead from Your Legacy. Clarify your leadership purpose and use it as a consistent thread that inspires and guides your actions.5. Vulnerability Builds Trust. Showing up authentically encourages others to do the same and strengthens team engagement.

As both traditions celebrated Easter on the same day this year, we explore the fascinating possibility of reconciliation between these ancient branches of Christianity.The calendrical quirk that aligned Orthodox and Catholic Easter dates this year isn't just a mathematical curiosity – it's a powerful symbol of potential unity. While Orthodox Christians typically use the Julian calendar (placing their Easter about 13 days different from the Gregorian calendar used by Catholics), this year's synchronization recalls the shared foundation established at the Council of Nicaea in 325 AD. More on this at this link.Pope Leo, whose papal crest bears the motto "In Christ we become one," is continuing dialogue started by Pope Francis regarding a permanent alignment of Easter celebrations. With the 1700th anniversary of Nicaea approaching and Pope Leo planning his first papal trip to Turkey for the commemoration, the momentum for meaningful unity seems stronger than ever. This historic moment coincides with what we're calling a "springtime in Christianity" – a period of renewal marked by increasing interest in faith traditions among younger generations seeking meaning beyond what secular culture offers.SPONSOR: Briefcase MarketingAt Briefcase Marketing, we create marketing that inspires action and delivers results.

Their example reminds us that unity doesn't require uniformity, but rather mutual respect and shared purpose.Whether through local ecumenical efforts like joint Good Friday services or international dialogues between church leaders, these steps toward reunification represent healing for one of Christianity's most significant historical divisions.

You'll learn how to deploy gratitude as a leadership strategy, how to make it part of your workplace rhythms, and why it transforms not just your team culture but your people's *entire lives*.
