The science says no, at least not in the athletic sense. But the psychic benefits can be large — just ask former N.F.L. star Ricky Williams. He says athletes should consider cannabis a healing drug, not a party drug. Even the N.F.L. is starting to agree. (Part two of a two-part series.)

Today's episode kicks off with election integrity special guest Mark Cook. He's an election and cyber-security expert, dropping hard evidence on Dominion Voting Systems. From hidden web servers and proof-of-concept demos showing vulnerabilities. Byrne's latest fire: unsealed grand jury evidence on Smartmatic, compromised hardware from China, a Taiwan switcheroo, and ties to Venezuela/Cuba that could blow open decertification of entire systems. If this holds, it's game-changing proof the machines aren't secure.We shift to the raw outrage from Colorado parents fighting back against a system that seems hell-bent on protecting predators instead of kids. Erin for Parental Rights out here in Commie land Colorado confronted lawmakers after seven Democrats voted no on tougher penalties for child sex traffickers and then refused to let voters decide via ballot measure. Add in the fresh bomb: Colorado Democrats just introduced a bill to decriminalize prostitution statewide, repealing crimes like soliciting and patronizing while preempting local laws. This isn't protection, it's a dangerous slide that puts vulnerable people at risk, and parents are done staying silent.This show pulls no punches real parents confronting spineless politicians, fresh legislation that reeks of misplaced priorities, and deep dives into voting tech corruption. Mark Cook brings receipts, Joe brings the heat, and we're asking the questions the establishment dodges. Tune in for truth that hits hard and the call to action Colorado families need right now.
Christopher O'Brien returns for part 2 of our conversation on Stalking the Herd. We get into deeper aspects of the Cattle Mutilation phenomenon, and you can follow us down the rabbit hole. From 1992 to 2002 Christopher O'Brien investigated over one thousand paranormal events reported in the San Luis Valley—located in south-central Colorado/north-central New Mexico. Working with law enforcement officials, ex-military, ranchers and an extensive network of skywatchers, he documented what may have been the most intense wave of unexplained activity ever seen in a single region of North America. His ten-year investigation resulted in the three books of his “mysterious valley” trilogy: The Mysterious Valley, Enter the Valley, and Secrets of the Mysterious Valley. His meticulous field investigation of UFO reports, unexplained livestock deaths, Native American legends, cryptozoology, secret military activity and the folklore, found in the world's largest alpine valley, has produced one of the largest databases of unusual occurrences gathered from a single geographic region. He is currently working with a team of specialists installing a high-tech video surveillance and hard-data monitoring system in and around the San Luis Valley. He has also authored Stalking the Tricksters which is published by Adventures Unlimited Press. This controversial book distills his years of field investigation and research into an ingenious unified paranormal theory that is sure to create intense interest and controversy. Hosted on Acast.

Buddy, Ross Ellwanger, Kody Lohstroh (Colorado), and Stephan Roaque (Wyoming) dig into the growing tension around non-resident hunting pressure, rapidly increasing tag costs, and how different states are managing (or mismanaging) mountain lion harvest. The conversation starts with out-of-state limitations and quickly pivots to Colorado's non-resident lion tag jumping to ~$825, what drove it, and what downstream effects it could have on neighboring states.Along the way, they unpack why houndsmen often get labeled as “extreme” while actually sitting in the practical middle: not “kill every predator” and not “save every predator,” but manage populations responsibly—including hard conversations about female harvest, quota structures, pursuit seasons, mentorship, and political realities. The episode closes with a gear-heads-up about Garmin TT15 collar support ending soon and a quick warning on Oregon's IP 28 animal-cruelty initiative language that could impact hunting, trapping, and rodeo exemptions.

Branson traces his path from Colorado carpentry and cabinet work to running three companies — a custom high-end general contracting firm, an in-house labor/carpentry company that spun off partly for insurance reasons, and a newer service company. The conversation covers building reputation through architect relationships, the economics of self-performing labor, raising the bar on craftsman wages and benefits, and the ongoing challenge of attracting the next generation to the trades.

"A certain sort of dogged obsessiveness seems to help. I remember hearing Tobias Wolfe speak once that talent is wonderful and widely distributed on Earth, but sitting down and putting in the hours is where it's at," says Mary Margaret Alvarado, who wrote "That's Somebody's Son" for The Atavist.It's a little later than planned, but here we feature Mary Margaret Alvarado's piece for The Atavist Magazine titled “That's Somebody's Son: Three Mothers, One Struggle: saving their children with schizophrenia.” It's a piece that that Mia, as Mary Margaret goes by, pitched more than a year ago and it was rejected. But Mia went back to the drawing board, basically wrote the entire thing, came back, and boom here we are.We're going to hear from Seyward Darby about her side of the table and why this piece was at first rejected and that special feeling when a great pitch comes across the transom.Mary Margaret Alvarado is a multi-faceted writer with her poetry and nonfiction appearing in The Iowa Review, The Kenyon Review, VQR, Outside, and The Georgia Review, among other publications.

What happens when we stop drifting financially and start stewarding intentionally?When God's purposes shape our financial decisions, money takes its rightful place—not as a source of identity or security, but as a tool that brings clarity, freedom, and faithful living. That conviction is at the heart of our conversation today with Brian Holtz, CEO of Compass Financial Ministry, about an upcoming gathering designed to help believers live it out in practical ways.Why Purpose Matters When It Comes to MoneyBrian explains that the idea for the conference begins with a familiar phrase: money is just a tool. While that's true, tools are always created with intention. A hammer isn't good or bad—but it's designed for a specific purpose. When we don't understand what money is for, we risk using it indiscriminately, assuming every financial decision is wise simply because it seems practical.Scripture calls us to something better: stewardship shaped by God's design. When we understand His purposes for money, our decisions become clearer—and our faithfulness more intentional.Introducing Money on PurposeThat's the vision behind Money on Purpose, Compass Financial Ministry's global conference happening February 26–28, 2026, in Orlando.Over three days, attendees will experience:Christ-centered worshipTeaching rooted in ScriptureFellowship with believers seeking to steward God's resources faithfullyEach keynote explores a specific purpose of money through a biblical story or character from both the Old and New Testaments, followed by workshops focused on real-life application.One of Compass's strengths has always been its ability to make biblical stewardship accessible, regardless of where someone is on their financial journey. This conference reflects that same heart.Whether you're a young adult seeking guidance, a parent shaping financial values at home, or a church leader looking to integrate stewardship into discipleship, Money on Purpose is designed to meet you where you are.Workshop topics range from biblically grounded investing to navigating economic uncertainty—all anchored in God's Word.What often surprises attendees most, Brian notes, is how comprehensively Scripture speaks to modern financial questions. When people realize their real concerns are addressed in God's Word, something shifts.Just as powerful is the community. Being surrounded by like-minded believers moves the experience beyond information toward transformation. People leave not only knowing what to do, but encouraged, supported, and eager to see God work through their obedience.What Participants Walk Away WithCompass's mission is simple but profound: to help people grow closer to Jesus, live free to serve Him, and help fund the Great Commission.Those who attend Money on Purpose leave with:A clearer understanding of God's financial principlesA practical plan to live them outA community of believers committed to walking togetherThat's what purposeful stewardship is ultimately about.When we handle money on purpose—God's purpose—we discover greater freedom, direction, and joy in stewarding what belongs to Him.To learn more or register for the Money on Purpose conference, visit CompassFinancialMinistry.org, where you'll find full details on sessions, workshops, and the event schedule.On Today's Program, Rob Answers Listener Questions:My husband and I are debt-free and saving for retirement through a mix of Roth and traditional accounts. I'm a state employee with deferred compensation options. A friend is urging us to buy a whole life insurance policy as an investment. Is that a wise choice, or could we be getting bad advice?I'm calling on behalf of a friend in Colorado who needs cash flow and has equity in her home. She's single and a senior, and I thought a reverse mortgage might help—but she says it's not an option. Are reverse mortgage rules different by state or age, and who could help her explore this?I'm retired military and run a side business that earns over $100,000 a year. I live on about half, and I'm doing well. I'm considering paying off my home and possibly buying a second one. How do I know when enjoying what I have crosses into greed rather than faithful stewardship?Once I pay off a credit card, should I keep it open or close it to protect my credit score? And if it has an annual fee, what's the best way to handle that?Resources Mentioned:Faithful Steward: FaithFi's Quarterly Magazine (Become a FaithFi Partner)Compass Financial MinistryYour Money Counts: Money on Purpose Conference 2026Movement MortgageOur Ultimate Treasure: A 21-Day Journey to Faithful StewardshipWisdom Over Wealth: 12 Lessons from Ecclesiastes on MoneyLook At The Sparrows: A 21-Day Devotional on Financial Fear and AnxietyRich Toward God: A Study on the Parable of the Rich FoolFind a Certified Kingdom Advisor (CKA)FaithFi App Remember, you can call in to ask your questions every workday at (800) 525-7000.

Dive into the heart of America's cultural battlefield with Patrick today where schools are ground zero for indoctrination and chaos. From creepy California Senator Scott Wiener pushing agendas that target our kids, to plummeting math and reading scores while political activism skyrockets, we're exposing how teachers unions and hijacked school boards are turning classrooms into communist boot camps. We'll spotlight shocking clips from Washington state where unions cheer kids ditching class to protest ICE, and a gut-wrenching case of a 16-year-old girl wrestler allegedly sexually assaulted by a biological male opponent delayed reporting for months, now under criminal probe. And don't miss the TikTok rants from activist teachers like McAlister Huynh spewing "no human is illegal on stolen land" right in elementary classrooms, all while parents fight back against this ideological war on our youth.But it's not just schools immigration madness is costing lives, and we're naming names. Remember Laken Riley, Rachel Morin, Jocelyn Nungaray, and Kayla Hamilton? These innocent Americans were brutally murdered by illegal aliens who never should have been here. We'll break down Tom Homan's bombshell on over 3,300 unaccompanied kids lost in Minnesota under Biden's watch, with zero outrage from the left. Plus, viral moments like liberal moms crafting "F*CK ICE" signs for their toddlers, and the latest on Colorado's own Cherry Creek Schools scandal where a hostile environment for staff and parents boils over. And fresh from Canada: the tragic school shooting by transgender teen Jesse Strang, leaving 10 dead and dozens injured when will the madness stop?In the hot seat today: Minnesota AG Keith Ellison grilled on his soft stance on illegals, Tim "Tampon Boy" Walz whining about ICE drawdowns he helped create, and ICE Director Todd Lyons revealing 1.6 million illegals with active deportation orders roaming free. We'll dive into explosive posts on voter fraud, 28% of verifications failing SSA matches and activist judges forcing the return of Venezuelan criminals. This episode pulls no punches on the border crisis, expired visas for 2.1 million, and the fight against the SAVE Act. Tune in for raw truth, fiery exchanges, and a call to reclaim our country before it's too late.

Is there a built-in "fat switch" in our genes—something nature designed to help us store fat for survival? And if so, what does that mean for food addicts living in a world saturated with ultra-processed food? In this episode, Dr. Vera Tarman sits down with Dr. Richard Johnson, Professor Emeritus at the University of Colorado, former Chief of the Division of Renal Diseases and Hypertension, author of The Sugar Fix, The Fat Switch, and Nature Wants Us to Be Fat, and a researcher with 700+ scientific papers to his name. Dr. Johnson explains how fructose (from sugar and high-fructose corn syrup—but also produced inside the body under certain conditions) can activate a powerful metabolic pathway that increases hunger, lowers cellular energy, and shifts calories toward fat storage. He connects this to uric acid, salt, high-glycemic carbohydrates, and the modern "perfect storm" of ultra-processed foods engineered to intensify cravings. Together, they explore the evolutionary logic of fat storage, why visceral fat may have had survival value, why "calories in/calories out" fails to explain the whole picture, and what practical steps can help people restore metabolic flexibility—including carbohydrate reduction, movement that supports mitochondrial health, and the emerging role of GLP-1 medications as a tool (not a replacement) for nutrition change.

Colorado is mourning the loss of a radio legend; we remember the life and legacy of James "Dr. Daddio" Walker whose radio station KDKO was long known as "The Soul of the Rockies." Then, how do you recruit more teachers of color? Students at Northglenn High School recently tried to address that concern. Also, black holes, microplastics and new beginnings sound like things that may not go together. But for a Colorado Springs artist they have quite a lot in common.

Rick Beck's modern cast and carved figurative glass sculptures are inspired by industrial and architectural works as well as the human form, with an emphasis on formal aspects. Interested in playing the volumes of mass against the rhythm of the lines, Beck enjoys the interplay of the visual versus the verbal, creating art that challenges the eye as well as the mind. Beck states: "My wife, Valerie, got me a book about the competitive relationship between Picasso and Matisse. Their artistic dialogue about the figure has fired my imagination, especially the way they shared and borrowed images and ideas from one another, as well as from history and literature. Between this book and visits to the Art Institute of Chicago, I've been inspired by the use of shape, form, and mass to create something more universal than the literal subject." A studio artist who was based in Spruce Pine, North Carolina, for 30 years before moving to Hawaii in 2020, Beck began working in glass at Hastings College in Nebraska, where he received his BA. The artist received his MFA from Southern Illinois University, where he studied with Bill Boysen. He was awarded residencies at the Appalachian Center for Crafts 1989 to 1991, and in 1994 received a Visual Arts Fellowship from the North Carolina Arts Council, followed by a National Endowment for the Arts regional Visual Arts Fellowship from the Southern Arts Federation in 1995. A student of the Studio Glass movement, Beck has assisted at Pilchuck Glass School, assisting artists Curtiss Brock and Jan Mares, as well as at the Penland School of Craft. Beck currently shares a studio with wife Valerie Thomas Beck in Hakalau, Hawaii. Valerie has been a designer and co-conspirator to Rick since 1984. Both artists have been artists-in-residence at Penland School of Crafts, North Carolina, (1991-94) and have also been instructors there. Their blown glass work consists mainly of vessels – canvasses for imagery based on dreams and experiences ranging from the sublime to the ridiculous. These vessels document their lives while providing beauty and pleasure. Since moving to the Big Island, Beck's challenge in making glass work is two-fold. First, to create work without using fossil fuels or adding to the demand for capacity on the electrical grid. Their new studio is powered by a solar/photo voltaic and battery system. Second, to create work that excites and challenges his concepts of art inside these new energy parameters. For him, formal aspects are crucial. Beck stretches and manipulates common shapes and objects, reducing the objects to pattern and geometry. Currently, he is producing work focusing on the geometry of life, plant, and human forms. Beck's work will be on view in 2026 at Blue Print Gallery, Dallas, Texas, opening February 26; at Hidell Brooks Gallery, Charlotte, North Carolina, in May; at Blue Spiral 1 group show, Asheville, North Carolina; and at Ken Saunders, Chicago, Illinois. His work is also represented by Raven Gallery, Aspen, Colorado.
In many divorces, one spouse understands the finances while the other is left in the dark.

The fight for hunting heritage is happening in classrooms and state capitols. The future of hunting, fishing, and America's outdoor traditions depends on more than recruitment. It hinges on smart conservation policy, access to quality land, and educating the next generation about their role on the landscape. Leaders from the Congressional Sportsmen's Foundation break down proactive legislation shaping the sporting future across the Midwest and West. From hunter education in schools to bipartisan firearm safety efforts, they explain how states like Michigan and Arkansas are building pathways for youth exposure to hunting, conservation funding, and responsible firearm ownership. The conversation goes deeper than recruitment. You'll hear why the American System of Conservation Funding must be taught alongside physical science, how wildlife councils in Colorado and Michigan are reshaping public perception of hunters, and why access programs in Wisconsin are critical for maintaining quality hunting and fishing opportunities. This is an insider look at how state legislators, fish and wildlife agencies, and sportsmen's groups are protecting access, strengthening conservation funding, and defending private property rights. If you care about waterfowl hunting, deer management, public land access, or the long-term future of our outdoor heritage, this conversation matters.

Episode 31 explores the sacred role of nursing in psychedelic-assisted therapy with Wendy Marussich, co-founder of the Organization of Psychedelic and Entheogenic Nurses (OPENurses). Wendy shares her unique journey from evolutionary ecologist to oncology nurse to psychiatric mental health nurse practitioner and discusses why nurses are uniquely suited for psychedelic work. In this episode, we discuss: Wendy's unconventional path from PhD biologist to oncology nurse, driven by a desire for more meaningful, heart-centered work that could make a tangible difference in people's lives How nurses' training in grounded presence, "non-awkward touch," and crisis management translates perfectly to psychedelic support work—from holding space during difficult journeys to recognizing when someone needs medical intervention The critical importance of discussing consent and boundaries around touch before a session, including practical techniques like testing different types of touch beforehand and using "imaginal touch" when physical contact isn't desired The mission of OPENurses: Creating professional support, education, and ethical standards for nurses working in psychedelic therapy, while advocating for full inclusion of nurses in this emerging field Why having a nurse in the room automatically increases safety as they can authoritatively reassure patients about medical status in a way that truly lands, especially in altered states when perception is heightened Pathways for nurses interested in psychedelic work, including ketamine training programs, experiential learning, and the importance of doing your own inner work before supporting others Resources Mentioned: Open Nurses (Organization of Psychedelic and Entheogenic Nurses): https://www.opennurses.org Open Nurses YouTube Channel: Monthly interview series with nurses working in psychedelic spaces: https://www.youtube.com/@OPENurses Open Nurses Facebook Group: Community support and networking: https://www.facebook.com/OPENurses The Microdose Newsletter: Free newsletter from UC Berkeley Center for the Science of Psychedelics - https://psychedelics.berkeley.edu/about-the-microdose/ PRATI (Psychedelic Research and Training Institute): Ketamine training program in Colorado - https://pratigroup.org Polaris Insight Center: Psychedelic therapy training - https://www.polarisinsight.com Zendo Project: Peer support for people having difficult psychedelic experiences at festivals - https://zendoproject.org Kay Parley's Article: "Supporting the Patient on LSD Day" - American Journal of Nursing, 1964 Connect with Carla If you're inspired by this episode and want to stay connected, follow Carla and Psychedelic Divas on social media or visit the website to get your Psychedelic Safety Guide Including What to Do When Things Go Wrong: Website: PsychedelicDivas.com Carla's Coaching: CarlaDetchon.com Instagram: @psychedelicdivas YouTube: @carladetchon Subscribe & Review: If you enjoyed this episode, please subscribe, rate, and review Psychedelic Divas.

Wendy Walker joins Carol Fitzgerald to discuss her new thriller, BLADE, a Bookreporter Bets On selection that is set in the world of competitive figure skating. The novel, which draws from Wendy's personal experience as a competitive figure skater (she trained in Colorado from ages 13 to 16), features alternating timelines that follow attorney Ana Robbins, who returns to her former skating facility to defend a young skater accused of murder. Wendy talks about the book's themes of isolation, the pressure on young athletes, and the psychological impact of competitive sports. The dual-timeline structure allows readers to see connections between past and present events. And with the Winter Olympics airing, she touches on the importance of nailing the triple axel. Wendy has expanded her career to include producing audio originals. She shares how creating audio content differs from writing novels, including being able to rewrite lines during recording sessions, and various writing techniques, such as minimizing dialogue tags.

Adipose tissue (body fat) isn't just “stored energy”—it's biologically active and can release inflammatory signals. For people living with inflammatory arthritis (like rheumatoid arthritis, psoriatic arthritis, ankylosing spondylitis, and lupus), that matters because it can influence pain, fatigue, disease activity, and sometimes even how well treatments work.In this video, Dr. Isabelle Amigues explains the intersection of overweight/obesity and inflammatory arthritis—without shame, and with a focus on what's actually helpful.We cover:Why fat tissue can contribute to inflammationHow weight can affect joints, symptoms, and functionWhat this can mean for arthritis outcomes and treatment responsePractical, compassionate next steps to support metabolic health and reduce inflammation#InflammatoryArthritis #RheumatoidArthritis #PsoriaticArthritis #AnkylosingSpondylitis #Lupus #AutoimmuneDisease #Rheumatology #Inflammation #AdiposeTissue #Obesity #MetabolicHealth #JointPain #ChronicIllness #HealthWithoutShame #HolisticHealth #TreatToTarget

Entrevista Tabaré Viera - Senador del Partido Colorado by En Perspectiva
When is a trout a steelhead and when is it a rainbow? Are steelhead just rainbow trout that migrate to the ocean? Is it something in their genes or just random chance? And in a given population of rainbow trout, will only some of them migrate to the ocean? And according to a biologist, are the Great Lakes "steelhead" truly steelhead? My guest fisheries biologist Katie Kobayashi [32:13] has studied these fish down to the genetic level and has some exciting information on their life histories. In the Fly Box this week, we have some great questions that I think will be helpful to many of you, including: If I hook a trout in the back behind the dorsal fin, will it survive OK? And can I count this fish as "caught"? What is the most useful saltwater fly line for inshore species? For my smaller creeks in Pennsylvania, would an 8 ½ foot 4-weight or 7 1/2-foot 3-weight be better? Have you used articulated flies? Have you had success with them? Are there articulated subsurface flies other than streamers? I have an 8-weight rod for flats fishing in salt water and want a second rod for bigger stuff. Should I get a 9-weight or a 10-weight? For fishing in a Colorado tailwater, when should I use an indicator setup and when should I Euro-nymph? And when Euro nymphing, how can I get a tiny size 22 nymph down into the right zone?
This episode dives deep into the escalating confrontation between the federal government and Colorado's leadership as the Trump administration moves to withhold billions in grant money from sanctuary jurisdictions. We examine the specific targeting of Colorado due to its non-compliance with immigration enforcement and the defiant response from state officials like Governor Jared Polis and AG Phil Weiser. Amidst this high-stakes financial tug-of-war, we highlight the plight of 70-year-old Tina Peters, who remains incarcerated despite reports of multiple assaults in prison, raising urgent questions about selective justice and the state's priorities.We shift our focus to the ideological capture of Colorado's public institutions, from the Department of Agriculture to the classroom. The program features the story of a whistleblower placed on leave for exposing the use of tax dollars for DEI initiatives, alongside disturbing reports from the Cherry Creek School District. From school-sanctioned anti-ICE walkouts to administrative agendas that favor equity over excellence, we analyze how these policies are reshaping the state's cultural fabric and punishing those who dare to speak out against the prevailing political tide.Finally, we broaden our scope to the national crisis of incompetence and the rise of radical policies that threaten American stability. We take a hard look at the breakdown of basic civic knowledge among those in power—including a sheriff unable to name the branches of government—and the erosion of property rights in states where squatting has become a symptom of "communist-style" policy. Featuring insights from Kyle Seraphin and a look at the legal absurdities surrounding multi-million dollar squatting cases, this episode serves as a wake-up call to the reality of institutional decay and the necessity of constitutional leadership.
Today's conversation is a joint episode between Mountain & Prairie and The River Radius podcast. I'm joined by Sam Carter, the creator and host of The River Radius. If you're not already familiar with The River Radius, I give it my highest endorsement. It's the most thoughtful and well-crafted show out there about rivers, water, and the people connected to them. Sam has built something genuinely special, and he's someone I consider both a friend and a collaborator. I've learned a great deal from the way he approaches storytelling, curiosity, and place. For this episode, instead of a traditional interview, this is a two-way conversation in which Sam and I interview each other—one we're both releasing on our podcast feeds. Sam shared it on The River Radius feed earlier in January, and now I'm sharing it here. We talk about how our podcasts came to be, what keeps us curious after hundreds of episodes, and how rivers, landscapes, and long projects shape the way we think about life and work. We also get into writing, responsibility, attention, grief, ambition, and what it actually looks like to build something slowly and with intention. I think you'll enjoy it. As always, be sure to check the episode notes for detailed timestamps and links to everything we discuss. And I strongly encourage you to find The River Radius on your favorite podcast player, explore the archives, and give it a listen.

In late January 1882, Doc Holliday and Johnny Ringo came within mere seconds of turning the streets of Tombstone into a slaughterhouse. Luckily, cooler heads prevailed, and both men were arrested before a shot was fired; a near catastrophe that historian Mark Lee Gardner described as “the greatest gunfight that never was.” Join me today as we take a closer look at this infamous standoff. We'll examine Holliday's role in the famous Earp vendetta ride, his last gunfight in Colorado, and his final days at Glenwood Springs. We'll also discuss the Dodge City War, Luke Short, Bat Masterson, and the ultimate fate of Holliday's gal pal, Big Nose Kate Elder.

How To Provide a Release Plan Without Losing Agility - Mike CohnStakeholders want to know what will be delivered, and when. Your team wants to stay agile. So how do you create a roadmap (aka release plan or milestone plan) without locking down every detail? I'm about to start on a road trip between Idaho and Colorado: a 16-hour drive. I know where I'm going, and my general route, but I don't know every turn I'll take — and that's fine.That's how agile teams should treat release plans and roadmaps.My route is a plan, not a promise. It's not set in stone. The turns I made and my ETA could change based on roadwork, traffic congestion, an opportunity for an exciting detour, or even a flat tire. The further the distance I have to travel, the more uncertainty I should expect.Agile plans are the same. We can't predict every eventuality, but we can provide a forecast. We can provide a general idea of where we are planning to go, a predicted range of when we will likely hit key milestones, and our confidence level in the plan. Most agile teams know there's too much uncertainty to make guarantees. At the same time, they feel like a guarantee is the only thing stakeholders will accept.Here's what agile teams might be missing: Stakeholders have their own plans to make. And they are just as worried about being held accountable to their predictions as teams are.Stakeholders need accurate delivery dates and milestones (note I didn't say precise). They crave predictability.Sometimes it might feel like they're asking for a guarantee. But in truth, the only way to give them absolute certainty is to Overpad your estimates (like me telling someone my 16-hour drive will take 24, just in case), orRefuse to adapt when conditions change. Neither is good for the product, or the team. So what can you do when a stakeholder seems to want a guarantee vs a forecast? Try this: Talk to stakeholders in terms they understand.Here's one technique I've found helpful:Compare their request to requests for similar forecasts in their own domain.For example: Ask a salesperson what their comfort level would be if they were asked to guarantee exactly how much they'll sell — and which customers they'll close — in each of the next six months, or in the first year of a product's release.Ask a marketing person what their concerns would be if asked to commit to specific campaign results with exact timelines.Don't be confrontational. The point isn't to trap them — it's to show that uncertainty exists everywhere, and that agility is a strength, not a weakness. Then, share my road trip analogy with your stakeholders. Tell them that you can't give them a guarantee, but you can present a roadmap that looks ahead 3-6 months. The roadmap will show the team's goal, how much progress you believe you can make by when (expressed as a range), and your team's confidence in the plan. Need help communicating your plans? Try our Plan Visualizer Tool, free for all MGS Essentials members. Remind stakeholders that, like suggested routes on a long trip, agile roadmaps provide visibility, align expectations, and help people plan — without pretending every turn is known in advance.Freeing your team from unrealistic expectations can accelerate their move from good to great.A roadmap is a plan, not a promise Why stakeholders push for guarantees The path to alignment starts with empathy Give stakeholders what they need to succeed How to connect with AgileDad:- [website] https://www.agiledad.com/- [instagram] https://www.instagram.com/agile_coach/- [facebook] https://www.facebook.com/RealAgileDad/- [Linkedin] https://www.linkedin.com/in/leehenson/
