District math objectives can't live on a slide deck. For change to happen, they need Bridges—the leaders who translate vision into action at the school and classroom level.In this episode, we explore who the Bridges are (principals, assistant principals, instructional coaches, coordinators, and teacher-leaders) and why their role is essential to making district math objectives real.

In this episode of the Equestrian Performance Mindset Podcast, I and Lorna welcome Noora from Dubai to share her powerful journey as a young rider. From her first pony rides to endurance racing, showjumping setbacks, and breaking her leg just as her confidence was growing, Noora's story is one of resilience, courage, and transformation. She opens up about the fears, doubts, and setbacks that nearly stopped her from pursuing her passion, and the mindset tools that helped her come back stronger. You'll discover: How Noora went from falling off weekly to importing her dream horse Why breaking her leg became the turning point in realizing it was her mindset holding her back. The simple shifts that took her from fear and self-doubt to riding her first clear round in Nationals. Why redefining success changed everything in her riding. How her new mindset now impacts not only her riding, but also her studies, training, and everyday life. If you've ever thought “I'm not talented enough” or worried what others might think when you step into the arena, Noora's journey will inspire you to see that it's never just about talent, it's about mindset.

Do you have a corner of your home that's a little cluttered, unorganized, or full of things you just can't decide what to do with, so they sit there, staring back at you? Or maybe life has thrown you into a situation that's turned your house upside down, repairs, a remodel, new carpet going in, or houseguests everywhere? I get it. Me too. When our space slips into disarray, it often leaves us feeling off balance. That's because our nervous system is constantly picking up on the extra noise and sending signals that lead to overstimulation, decision fatigue, and even stress or anxiety. And here's the kicker: clutter doesn't just affect our productivity—it also interferes with our ability to rest. That low hum of “things left undone” keeps our brains buzzing when we're trying to relax. But here's the good news: awareness is the first step, and a few simple actions can reset both your space and your mindset. When I'm feeling out of sorts, I always come back to these four easy wins: Make the bed – it instantly sets the tone for order. Do one load of laundry—start to finish. Take out the trash. Clear off one cupboard or counter space. These small steps create momentum, restore clarity, and bring a surprising sense of calm. ✨ Bottom line: A cluttered space = a cluttered mind. When you clear your environment, you're not just tidying up, you're creating mental clarity, lowering stress, and giving yourself the breathing room you deserve.

Clear, honest, and effective communication is the cornerstone of high-performing leadership. Yet, despite communicating constantly, many leaders and teams struggle to connect, align, and truly collaborate.

Matt Nash is the executive director of The Blackbaud Giving Fund, leading the organization's mission to unleash generosity by connecting people to causes they care about worldwide. An experienced executive with a focus on customer relationships and an expert in donor-advised funds and philanthropy, Matt previously served as the executive director of the Generosity Commission Working Group. Key Takeaways:The upcoming Individual Contribution Deduction (starting 2026) allows $1,000–$2,000 deductions even without itemizing. This is a game-changer for mid-level donors and nonprofits. High net worth donors, meanwhile, are expected to give more this year before new caps take effect.Building trust requires proactive communication—help donors understand new deductions, be transparent about challenges, and highlight impact. Clear stewardship can inspire donors to give more, not less, during times of change.Companies are becoming more selective, prioritizing alignment with their values. Nonprofits that provide high-quality volunteer opportunities and keep corporate giving platform profiles updated will stand out. Mid-size and local companies, often overlooked, are especially valuable.Tracking foundation, government, and donor-advised fund trends helps nonprofits anticipate risks and opportunities. Using available data to identify potential DAF holders and maintain strong funder relationships ensures resilience. “The key is stewardship of these donors, and helping them know this deduction is available, allowing them to amplify their giving.” “If you have big funders, watch how they're using their resources; it might be a negative cause to you moving forward.” “If you are working with a corporation, make sure your volunteer effort works great, it creates an aura among employees: ‘What a fantastic organization.” - Matt Nash Reach out to Matt Nash at:Website: https://blackbaudgivingfund.org/Blog: https://blackbaudgivingfund.org/blog/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/BlackbaudGivingFund/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/blackbaudgivingfund/LinkedIn: https://linkedin.com/company/the-blackbaud-giving-fund Let's Work Together to Amplify Your Leadership + Influence1.

Like we tie so much into the physical object. That's why we end up keeping so much, 'cause we're like, “oh, I feel like I'm throwing out my kids' childhood if I don't keep every piece of art that they've ever made.” And then when you give it to 'em, my girls are 25 and 23, they don't want it. You know, you can document, you can, journal. That's the stuff that really matters. So don't let things give you the guilt because you don't have to keep everything, because if you keep everything, nothing special.” - Stacy Landholm GUEST RESOURCES: Stacy Landholm @homeorganizetribe Two-Minute Tidy Tips Podcast The 10 Day / 10 Room Reset Challenge RESOURCES: [JOIN MY VISIBILITY TRAINING] With just 1 hour a week, my proven content framework will help you refine your messaging and turn your offers into consistent, scalable sales.

Do you ever feel that sinking sense of dread when you look around your space and see clutter piling up? Physical clutter, whether papers on your desk, toys in your child's bedroom, or dishes on the kitchen counter, can weigh on your mind just as much as it clutters your home. The longer it sits, the more overwhelming the task feels, and the harder it becomes to get started. In this episode, I share three foundational strategies for tackling clutter with focus and intention. You'll learn how to structure your projects with clear outcomes and timelines, reframe your mindset from dread to motivation, and execute efficiently using practical hacks that actually work. These techniques apply whether you're organizing a drawer, a bedroom, or your whole home, helping you create spaces that reflect who you are now and support the life you want to live.

Complacency is the slow death of leadership. When we tolerate “good enough,” we quietly set the ceiling for our team's potential—and our own. When you say “good enough” is acceptable, you erode excellence. You send the message that mediocrity is tolerated, and that message ripples across culture, morale, and results. People disengage. Teams plateau. Opportunities slip away. As Jim Collins reminds us: “Good is the enemy of great.” And Gallup's research backs it up: only about 2 in 10 employees strongly agree that their performance is managed in a way that motivates them to do outstanding work. That's what happens when leaders accept mediocrity instead of inspiring excellence. The good news is that raising the bar doesn't mean driving people to exhaustion. Excellence isn't about perfection; it's about clarity, ownership, and progress. As Brené Brown says, “Clear is kind. Unclear is unkind.” When leaders clearly define expectations, celebrate growth, and model accountability, teams rise to meet higher standards. And it starts with us. We can't expect our people to reject complacency if we're coasting ourselves. Abraham Lincoln put it simply: “Whatever you are, be a good one.” Holding ourselves accountable to higher standards inspires trust, builds credibility, and makes excellence contagious. In this episode of Reflect Forward, I introduce a tool I call the Ownership Audit, a quarterly practice designed to identify and eliminate complacency within yourself, your team, and your organization. I'll walk you through how to use it to ask the hard questions, check for alignment with your mission and values, and take courageous action when “good enough” has crept in. Because the truth is, mediocrity doesn't just cost culture, it costs money. McKinsey research shows that companies with high-performance cultures are 3.7 times more likely to be top financial performers. Steve Jobs once said, “Be a yardstick of quality. Some people aren't used to an environment where excellence is expected.” As leaders, we must become that yardstick. We must model what it looks like to expect and deliver excellence, not perfection, but the commitment to always do better. Mic Drop Moments • “Complacency is the slow death of leadership.” • “When leaders tolerate ‘good enough,' they set the ceiling for their team's potential.” • “Mediocrity doesn't just cost culture; it costs money.” • “Excellence isn't perfection; it's clarity and ownership.” • “If you tolerate average, you'll never unlock extraordinary.” Key Takeaways 1. Tolerating “good enough” erodes both culture and results. 2. Complacency spreads like a virus; leaders set the bar. 3. Raising standards is about clarity and compassion, not perfection. 4. The Ownership Audit helps leaders spot and eliminate mediocrity. 5. Holding yourself accountable to higher standards inspires trust, energizes your team, and keeps complacency from creeping in.

This episode of Across The Margin : The Podcast features an interview with Brian Anderson, a Webby Award-winning senior features editor, writer, and producer at VICE. Brian was a science editor at The Atlantic, where he was part of the Pulitzer Prize-winning team for early pandemic coverage, and was later an editor at Vox. He lives in Chicago with his partner (and a piece of the Wall of Sound). Loud and Clear: The Grateful Dead Wall of Sound and the Quest for Audio Perfection is his first book, and the focus of this episode. Loud and Clear is the first book to tell the full story of the Grateful Dead's “Wall of Sound,” an unprecedented and since unparalleled speaker system that was as tall as a school bus is long and more than a hundred feet wide. The band's quest for a roaring yet crystal clear sound began after their formation in 1965, colliding with the ‘60s progressive social climate. Over the next few years, the Dead's growing crew of sound-obsessed techies and eccentric roadies took their speaker system to new technological heights. But as the Dead's relentless, drug-fueled touring schedule met this increasingly burdensome yet sonically perfect machine, in 1974, the Wall brought the band to its knees. The two years of “Wall shows” are legend among Deadheads, and Loud and Clear is the compelling character-driven tale about human ambition, achievement, and the limits of both on a larger-than-life scale. Brian Anderson interviewed hundreds of people associated with the band and the construction of the Wall itself, including band members, roadies, tech wizards, fans and many more. Loud and Clear is the fascinating inside story of one of the most legendary rock bands of all time. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

In Episode 92 of the Digital Velocity Podcast, Erik Martinez talks with Timothy Peterson—an executive leader with 25+ years across retail, e‑commerce, data, and operations—about how to integrate artificial intelligence thoughtfully and profitably. Drawing on roles from Bloomingdale's and Pottery Barn to CPG business intelligence and today's fractional CEO work, Timothy shares a pragmatic, cross‑industry view of what it really takes to make AI create business value. Timothy highlights hyper‑personalization at scale as the standout opportunity: using hundreds of relevant data sources to tailor experiences that deepen engagement and drive growth. But he cautions that rushing in can erode trust—especially when AI replaces human judgment in customer service or when proprietary content is scraped into training sets without authorization. The takeaway for brand leaders is clear: protect your data, protect your customers, and don't let AI tools redefine your value proposition without intent. To prioritize investments, Peterson lays out a simple sequence: first upskill people (think weekly lunch‑and‑learns, practical workshops, and targeted certifications), then pilot tools to learn what really moves the needle, and only then fund larger infrastructure. He also introduces “governance as a service,” ensuring responsibility for privacy, compliance, and ethics is shared across legal, marketing, and operations—rather than bolted onto a single role within the company. Clear accountability and measured rollout beat shiny‑object adoption every time. For direct‑to‑consumer marketing leaders, the playbook is refreshingly grounded: personalize to lift conversion and LTV, document and simplify processes so AI augments what already works, narrow your focus to the channels and products that matter, and measure the impact on sentiment, conversion, lead flow, and revenue. Above all, stay adaptable and keep learning—the real competitive advantage isn't any one model or tool, but a culture that can turn new capability into sustained customer value.
Are you pressing towards God? Or just waiting for something to happen? That’s the discussion today on BOLD STEPS. Last time, Pastor Mark Jobe began unpacking what it means to live with resurrection power and true spiritual transformation. Today, we're diving deeper into the Apostle Paul's honest confession in Philippians chapter 3, where he admits he hasn't "arrived" spiritually, but refuses to stop pressing forward toward Christ.

Are you pouring a drink to find a moment of peace, only to wake up feeling worse? Head Coach Victoria English explains the neuroscience behind why your brain seeks alcohol for "relief" from stress, pressure, and overstimulation. She details how alcohol's initial effect of boosting calming neurotransmitters and suppressing excitatory ones creates a false sense of peace. However, this temporary fix leaves your brain in chaos, with a rebound of stress hormones and a crash in dopamine, leading to increased anxiety and shame. You'll learn why you're not choosing alcohol, but rather the illusion of relief it provides, and how you can reclaim your peace by building new, empowering paths.
