"Without a life of prayer, you are really not living as a Catholic" - Matt Leonard   Summary What does it really mean to "go deeper" in prayer? And what if you pray every day but don't feel anything?  This week we're joined by Matthew Leonard, founder of The Science of Sainthood, to talk about what real spiritual growth looks like. We break down the three modes of prayer, vocal, meditation, and contemplation, and how they form a path to holiness. Matthew shares practical steps for building a daily habit of mental prayer, handling distractions, and creating space for silence. We also talk about how married couples can grow spiritually together without pressure or guilt.  If you've ever wondered whether you're making progress in your prayer life, this conversation will give you clarity, encouragement, and a clear next step.   Key Takeaways Prayer is essential, not optional.  Without prayer, we're not really living the fullness of Catholic life. A relationship with the Lord isn't an add-on. It's fundamental. There's a path to deeper prayer.  Vocal prayer, meditation, and contemplation build on each other. Vocal prayer engages body and soul. Meditation is daily mental prayer and real conversation with God. Contemplation is a gift from God that we prepare for through faithfulness. "Feeling nothing" doesn't mean nothing is happening.  Distractions are normal. Lack of emotion isn't failure. Stay faithful, show up, and trust that God is at work beneath the surface. Consistency creates growth.  Commit to a time and place. Embrace silence. Use Scripture or spiritual reading to focus. Act on inspirations. Over time, deeper prayer opens you to greater grace.   Couple Discussion Questions How can we support each other as we grow in our prayer life?  What does our personal prayer life actually look like right now, and where do we each feel invited to go deeper?   Resources https://www.scienceofsainthood.com/

But maybe you're hesitating. Overthinking. Afraid of closing doors. Or frustrated because you tried before — and it didn't work. Here's the truth: Not choosing is costing you more than you think. When your niche isn't clear: Your messaging keeps shifting.Your confidence drops.Your marketing feels heavy.You try one strategy after another — but nothing gains real traction. It's not dramatic failure. It's subtle stagnation. And that quiet stagnation can last for years. Postponing the decision of choosing your niche, is postponing the results in your business. But also, it sucks all the energy out of you. Choosing a niche is not about shrinking your business. It's about sharpening your impact. When you focus your energy long enough in one direction, momentum builds. Authority grows. Visibility compounds. If you've been postponing the decision, consider this your invitation. The time is now to stop scattering your energy — and start building real momentum.

They moved the finish line and called it progress. Don't fall for it. The Los Angeles Marathon just added a rule that I can't stop thinking about — and not in a good way. At mile 18, runners could take a different exit and receive the exact same medal as everyone who finished 26.2. In episode #1484, I break down why that decision is bigger than a marathon — it's a mirror of exactly what's happening in life. Skipping the hard part doesn't get you the reward. It robs you of the growth that only lives between mile 19 and the finish line. I've been to mile 19. I know what's waiting on the other side. And I know what it costs you when you don't go there. Hit play. Run your full race. Who This Episode Is For If you've been looking for an easier route to a goal that requires the hard one — this one's for you. Key Takeaways Moving the goalposts doesn't make you a finisher — it makes you someone who skipped the hardest part Mile 19 is where growth actually lives — avoiding it means avoiding the version of yourself waiting on the other side Shortcuts don't just cheat the result, they quietly erode your integrity and your belief in yourself The things you sacrifice for, hurt for, and push through define you — the easy wins don't Eventually, skipping steps catches up to you. Life exposes people who never ran the full race. Questions for Reflection Where in your life are you accepting a participation medal instead of pushing to the real finish line? What hard part are you currently trying to skip — and what growth are you leaving behind by doing so? If you're honest with yourself, which of your recent wins did you actually earn in full? Action Steps Identify one goal where you've quietly moved the finish line closer to make it easier. Reset it to where it was supposed to be. The next time you hit your version of mile 19 — the wall, the resistance, the point where quitting feels reasonable — write down what pushing through would mean for who you become. Commit to one race, one goal, one challenge right now where you refuse to take the early exit no matter what. Featured Quote "It's the ones you had to sacrifice for, hurt for, and push through that make you legendary — not the short ones."

There are seasons when life goes quiet—like the screen just cuts to black. In Healthy Mind, Healthy Life, hosted by Yusuf, former CNN producer Jamie Maglietta shares how that “dip to black” moment can become a turning point instead of a breakdown. This episode is for anyone facing job loss, identity shifts, or that in-between space where the old plan doesn't fit—but the new one isn't clear yet. Jamie offers a grounded way to move forward: slow your mind while life speeds up, work with what you have, test your next steps, and let clarity arrive through action. Episode Chapters: 00:01:43 — When life “cuts to black” and the plan disappears 00:02:42 — Jamie's first real “dip to black” after career shifts 00:03:42 — What “dip to black” means in live TV—and in real life 00:06:25 — Why disruption takes time (and why it looks “sudden” online) 00:08:01 — Embracing the mess: how reps create clarity 00:09:18 — The liminal space: mourning what you lost and rebuilding identity 00:15:44 — Doubt after clarity: anchoring without reverting to old patterns About the Guest: Jamie Maglietta is a former television news producer who worked at CNN. She now helps professionals become more media-ready and on-camera confident, and shares resources through her platform On Cam Ready. Key Takeaways: Name your “dip to black” moment so you stop treating it like personal failure Don't wait for certainty—test small moves until clarity shows up Mentally slow down when everything feels fast: ask “What do I know is true?” Commit to a direction for a set window (e.g., 3–6 months) before judging it Expect pivots inside pivots—adjust without turning it into self-doubt Stop producing everyone else's life: step into the frame and build your own story How to Connect With the Guest: YouTube: On Cam Ready Instagram: @jamie_maglietta Website: OnCamReady.com Want to be a guest on Healthy Mind, Healthy Life?

Have you ever felt like you're carrying the weight of everything in midlife — your health, your family, your responsibilities — and somehow your body still isn't cooperating? You're trying to lose weight. You're trying to eat well, move your body, and take care of yourself. But between hormone changes, stress, sleep struggles, and the sheer load of life in your 40s and 50s, it can start to feel exhausting… and honestly, a little discouraging. In this episode, I'm sharing a powerful encouragement that has been anchoring me lately from Psalm 37:5 — "Commit your way to the Lord, trust in Him, and He will act." We're going to talk about the mindset shift midlife women often miss when they're trying to lose weight and improve their health. Because at this stage of life, striving harder, restricting more, and pushing your body isn't the answer anymore. Instead, there's a better way to steward your health — one rooted in faith, wisdom, and a calmer approach to your changing body. If you've been feeling stuck, frustrated, or like the old strategies just aren't working anymore, this episode will help reset your mindset and bring some peace back into your health journey. Listen in — and if this resonates with you, join us in my free Facebook community for midlife women walking this journey together.   FULL BLOG + SHOW NOTES

Many people chase dreams, start projects, and pursue goals—but often struggle to break through to the next level. In this episode of Personal Mastery Training, Alvin shares a powerful insight that can transform the way you approach success: before you try to convince anyone else, you must first sell yourself on your own dream.   When you truly believe in what you're pursuing, your confidence, energy, and commitment become undeniable. That belief becomes the foundation that others can trust and support. Key Highlights Sell Yourself First- Before trying to persuade others to believe in your vision, you must fully believe in it yourself. If you're unsure or hesitant, people will sense it. Clarity Comes First- The first step toward mastery is clarity—knowing exactly what you want and why you want it. Vague goals lead to vague results. Courage Is the Next Step- Once you discover your passion, you need the courage to pursue it, even when others question or doubt your vision. Commit 100% to Your Dream- Being "almost all in" isn't enough. True success requires full commitment—pushing all your chips in and believing completely in your path. Energy Speaks Louder Than Words- When you genuinely believe in what you're doing, people can feel it. Confidence, passion, and conviction create a powerful presence. Preparation Creates Opportunity- Many "overnight successes" are actually the result of years of preparation. When opportunity appears, those who stayed consistent are ready. Expect Resistance and Doubt- Critics and skeptics often appear when you pursue big goals. Sometimes people try to bring others down because it forces them to confront their own unfulfilled dreams. Build Your Dream on a Solid Foundation- People are willing to invest their time, trust, and support when they see that you truly believe in what you're building. Final Thoughts Success begins with belief. If you want others to trust your vision, you must first trust it yourself. Take time to reflect: Are you truly all in on your dream—or just halfway committed?   When you fully believe in your purpose and show up with conviction, the world begins to respond. Sell yourself on your dream first—because when you believe completely, others will too.  

'Do not fret because of those who are evil or be envious of those who do wrong; for like the grass they will soon wither, like green plants they will soon die away. Trust in the Lord and do good; dwell in the land and enjoy safe pasture. Take delight in the Lord, and he will give you the desires of your heart. Commit your way to the Lord; trust in him and he will do this: he will make your righteous reward shine like the dawn, your vindication like the noonday sun. Be still before the Lord and wait patiently for him; do not fret when people succeed in their ways, when they carry out their wicked schemes. Refrain from anger and turn from wrath; do not fret – it leads only to evil. For those who are evil will be destroyed, but those who hope in the Lord will inherit the land,' (Psalm 37.1-8).

What if the one skill standing between you and reclaiming your time was something most high achievers refuse to do? In this power-packed episode of PivotMe, April Garcia tackles one of the most common — and costly — habits of driven leaders: doing everything yourself. Whether you've tried to delegate before and failed, or you've never quite figured out where to start, this episode hands you a proven roadmap. Key Takeaways: The 5W1H Framework: April introduces her signature delegation tool — a six-part method covering Who, What, Where, When, Why, and How. This framework takes the guesswork out of delegation and gives you a repeatable system for offloading tasks with clarity and confidence. Six Simple Steps to Effective Delegation: April walks listeners through a step-by-step process for delegating successfully — from identifying the right tasks to setting expectations and following up without micromanaging. Can Do vs. Should Do: One of the most powerful mindset shifts in this episode is understanding the difference between what you are able to do and what you should be spending your time doing. Just because you can doesn't mean you should. Time is Your Only Non-Renewable Resource: April reminds listeners that unlike money, energy, or opportunities — time cannot be earned back. Delegation isn't laziness; it's strategy. Delegation as a Leadership Skill: Whether you're a seasoned executive or just stepping into leadership, effective delegation is not optional — it's essential. This episode dismantles the fear and perfectionism that keep high performers stuck. Notable Quotes: "The difference between what you can do and what you should do is where your growth lives." — April Garcia "Time is your most precious non-renewable resource. Stop spending it on things someone else can do." — April Garcia Actionable Items: List every task you completed this week. Circle the ones only YOU can do. Apply the 5W1H framework to one task you've been avoiding delegating. Identify one person — team member, VA, or contractor — you can hand that task to this week. Set a clear deadline and define what "done" looks like before you hand it off. Commit to checking in without taking the task back. ---------------- Ready to take this work beyond the podcast?

Ramsey County is changing how it responds to young people who commit crimes — and early results show their new approach is working. In the past, young offenders were charged much like adults. They were sent to court and often placed on probation or assigned community service. The new approach, sometimes called restorative justice, goes deeper. It pulls in members of the community, considers why the crime happened and helps young people understand the harm they caused while also holding them accountable. MPR News host Angela Davis talks about why more communities across Minnesota are using restorative justice and about a new a study in Ramsey County that shows it dramatically reduces repeat offenses.

Have you ever said yes to something that felt like a full-body, no-doubt-about-it yes and then almost immediately, another opportunity showed up that you were equally excited about? That has been my world lately. And honestly, as much as I love having options, there is something quietly exhausting about standing at a crossroads when both paths genuinely appeal to you. What I've been noticing is that the pull to do it all, to find some creative way to say yes to everything, doesn't always come from ambition. Sometimes it comes from not wanting to miss out, or from not wanting to let anyone down including yourself. But I've been learning, slowly and sometimes the hard way, that trying to be in two places at once often means you're not truly present in either one. So on today's Wise Walk, I'm inviting you to slow down with me and get honest about what it actually feels like to choose one thing and let the other go with intention, without guilt, and without the weight of regret. Because there's real power in going all in on the one thing your heart is calling you toward. How are you getting grounded in order to make the best choice for you in this moment, in the you that exists right now? How are you going through the process of dropping into your heart or checking in with yourself enough to get clarity? How are you following up with yourself to release that other opportunity and not doubt it or have regrets? What does this experience look like for you right now, and are there opportunities to refine it so you get better and better at following your heart? When you're torn between two opportunities, what are the ways you are staying true to yourself and not getting caught up in FOMO? When can you say no because you're choosing your own sanity and choosing to be fully present for the one experience you're going all in on? Can you trust that if another opportunity needs to be part of your experience, something similar if not better will present itself at a later date? Is no for now okay, and can you just let it go? How often do savvy marketing strategies create fear or anxiety of missing out, and are you able to distance yourself enough to ask if you'd still say yes next month? What is the best use of your time and energy in this moment? How do you handle it when a dear loved one is the one creating that pressure to show up? Are you staying grounded in how you show up and not spreading yourself too thin? What does it feel like when you say no for now and choose your sanity, your peace, and your harmony? Are you giving yourself credit for being intentional about directing your energy toward what matters most to you? Wherever you are and whatever's unfolding in your life right now, I hope you're showing up fully energized, present, and excited about what you're saying yes to. And for the things you're saying not right now to, I hope you're holding those with anticipation rather than regret.  It goes a long way. I'd love to hear what you took away from today's episode, so feel free to reach out, and I'll see you next Thursday for another Wise Walk. In this episode: [02:58] I'm super excited because my friend's 50th birthday party is coming up this weekend. It's important for me to show up for her. [04:02] Then I was invited to attend a workshop on the same weekend. This Workshop is something that I would be excited to learn, and it's also a rare opportunity. I had to reflect on if I could do both things. [05:07] Would I be able to enjoy the party if I had to fly at the crack of dawn to do both? I felt anxiety rising in me when I thought about this question. [06:03] The thought of doing both made me feel exhausted. I ended up saying no to the workshop.  [07:09] When I try to do too much in too short of a period, I don't show up as my best self. [11:00] It's funny because in my life, I feel like when I need to learn a lesson, this happens more often than not. [12:22] When I have opportunities competing with my time, I'm getting better at saying I can't do both and not putting pressure on myself. [13:47] I'm choosing not to get swept up in the energy of fear of missing out. [15:20] I also want to take this moment to thank you. All of the Wise Walks that we go on creates a safe place for me to reflect. You have helped me to go inward and be intentional. Memorable Quotes: "I don't have to buy into that fear of missing out.

I really want to show up in meaningful ways for myself and for those that I love." - Mary Tess "I'm getting better at making choices that say — I can't do both, I don't want to do both, I don't want to put that pressure on myself." - Mary Tess Links and Resources: Mary Tess Rooney Email Heart Value Facebook | LinkedIn | Twitter | Instagram

Jesse hosts the Learnings and Missteps podcast and interviews Scott Evans, founder of Scott Evans Speaks, about mental health in the construction field as “operational integrity” and “invisible PPE,” emphasizing a 360-degree safety culture that extends beyond the jobsite gate. They discuss the disconnect between corporate, compliance-focused tools like apps and HR videos versus the field reality that trust and real conversations—often one-on-one on site—drive help-seeking, while stigma and policing language can shut people down. Scott shares lived experience with family suicide, trauma, and his own suicide attempt, reframing it as wanting a “way up,” and argues that prevention has ROI through reduced shutdowns, turnover, and insurance impacts. Jesse highlights Scott's free bilingual “five lifesaving tools” field guide (notice, ask, share, connect, act) and the need for jobsite champions. Connect with Scott on LinkedInCheck out Scott Evans Speaks00:00 Donuts Over Hotlines00:30 Meet Scott Evans03:23 Operational Integrity Explained07:02 Invisible PPE Concept10:13 Apps vs Field Trust13:45 Training Shift In Culture17:17 Talking Is Hard20:41 Stop Policing Words23:43 Champions On The Jobsite26:11 Scott's Internal Fall29:57 Family Impact and Addiction32:07 Why He Speaks Up34:57 Choose Tomorrow Mindset37:05 Making Change While Working41:07 Jobsite Champions Explained45:08 Five Lifesaving Tools47:05 Connect and Get Involved49:16 Prevention Is ROI52:54 Beating Scarcity Thinking57:02 The Promise to BeGet the blueprint to Plan, Commit, and Execute your way into optimal performance: https://www.depthbuilder.com/time-management-webinar-sign-up-page Download a PDF copy of Becoming the Promise You are Intended to Behttps://www.depthbuilder.com/books

Chances are, your accounts receivable (AR) is not dialed in. Kiera provides very tactical, specific tips on how to get your AR cleaned up and start bringing in money you've already earned. Episode resources: Subscribe to The Dental A-Team podcast Schedule a Practice Assessment Leave us a review Transcript: The Dental A Team (00:00) Hello, Dental A Team listeners. This is Kiera and today is a very important topic But one the people like my rat rat rat, but guess what my rat rat rat is gonna make you a lot of money So I hope you're excited for it. So we'll take that rat rat rat into kaching Because it's dentistry party done and we're just gonna like help you out. I hope you guys enjoy hanging out with me This is my like nerdy geeky side that definitely loves and obsesses of being able to help you guys and it's been so fun I'm working with some people and teaching them about this and   getting them excited on how they can fix their AR ⁓ is something that just like really, really lights my fire because doctors, you do the freaking dentistry, get paid for it. Can I get an amen out there? Like seriously, you do the dentistry and AR and making sure you're paid is something that I am so obsessed about. So, and this doesn't mean doctors, have to do it yourself. So I want us to get into the AR like the womp, womp, womp, it's annoying, but guess what? These are billing tips that work that are gonna make you a lot of money for work that you've already done.   This is like people like, Kiera, how can I make more money and not do more work? And I'm like, just take the money, the what you've already done. it's crazy. lot of people come in and like, Kiera, you're really going to be able to like, ⁓ give us an ROI on your consulting. And I'm like, time. Why? Because I know your AR is out of control. have yet to meet a practice that has perfect AR. And if you are the practice email me, I'm going to give you a freaking shirt and we don't get out done on a team shirts anymore. So yeah, you should definitely email us. ⁓ there are a couple of practices out there.   But most the time, AR is something that is not dialed in. It does not have a plan. And this is something that is going to be very tactical for you. So first step is AR. What is AR? It's the accounts receivable. Okay. And there's two parts to it. AR has the patient portion and the insurance portion. Okay. So when we do dentistry, we need to make sure we collect money and we bill insurance and then we make sure that we get paid for that. Now, insurance is such a sneaky little game and I get so annoyed by it I love to teach people this.   So we need to have it where there's like a few processes that make AR really good. So we're gonna break it down very simply. Number one, good information in means good clean claims going out. I'm always like, we send clean claims. Clean claims mean, clean claims, clean claims. Clean claims, clean claims. ⁓ Clean claims. I'm gonna giggle saying it. I can hear the little jingle in my voice. Clean claims means that we...   have the correct information. So I've got the patient's name, the date of birth, the insurance information. That's all correct. I've got the group number and please for the love of everything, holy, do not make a million group numbers. Do not do that. Make sure AR are so messy and your insurance box is so messy. We just have it. We also need to have fee schedules that are up to date every single year. Please do that. We need to attach it. We do not want write-offs. So what this means, ⁓ also another like, it's not a pet peeve. It's just like,   Oh, I'm sorry. You need to like listen to the podcast and implement this. Stop reporting to me your fees in gross numbers and do it in net. So many times I get on calls with people and they're like, Kiera, we produced like 2 million, but we collected one. And I'm like, ouch. And they're like, well, like our net was like, you know, 1.2. I'm like, so tell me you produce 1.2. Let's live in real land numbers, not the 2 million. Cause you're always going to be mad at me. They're like, well, I produced 2 million, but I'm only making a million. Well, yeah.   Because guess what? You didn't really produce two million. I know you want to say you did, but guess what? Insurance is what really is paying you. So we've got to do that. And I know you don't want to, but when you will do this and you attach the correct fee schedules to it, you are actually going be able to predict your numbers better and your money and your finances are going to get better on your personal side too. So hear me out. It was the worst day. was worse than Christmas getting a lump of coal. I took our production and it dropped us by 30%. And guess what? My goals are to produce 20 grand in a five out practice per day. You want to know how hard that was? I was like, I'm never going to make it.   But guess what? Because I was reporting in real numbers, me even as a TC and an O.M. we were able to schedule more correctly and get us to the actual 15 grand of true 15, 20 grand per day of true production that we were collecting. How much do think my business grew? ⁓ a lot because we were actually producing incorrect numbers, not inflated numbers. So clean claims. We're back to that clean claims mean we've got correct information. We've got the correct ⁓ all of the information is correct.   We've got our insurance verification done and we've got the fee schedules attached. So then when I'm giving an estimate, I'm estimating to the best of my ability. We do not send pre-Ds. I call them pre-denials. You can have your own opinion, but I really truly do not like pre-denials. They take time, they waste energy. And to me, guess what? I got the best information. I'm a thousand dollars. I'm an insurance coupon. I need to be a dang good treatment coordinator that's able to communicate this. And if the patient owes money, guess what? We've got to be really good at communicating that too. This is our best estimate.   I'm gonna do my absolute best. We called your insurance company. I've got the best insurance verification. This is the absolute best I can get today. We're gonna take care of that. And on the flip side, hey, worst case scenario is you're gonna owe this much out of pocket. Tell them that. Then they're not mad at you when you call them. like, hey, insurance didn't pay as much as we thought. But remember, worst case scenario, this is what it is. And I can work with you to get that collected, okay? So then from there, we make sure we have correct documentation as well. We need to attach the correct narratives.   ⁓ insurance or excuse me, x-rays, intra-orals, whatever we need to get that paid. Insurance companies are obsessed with not paying for you, but it's because they play the game. So just figure out the rules of the game. We have our fee schedules in there. We send the correct documentation and we send it out every day and we check to make sure none of these claims get stuck in our claim sender. Okay, so we wanna make sure it goes through the clearing house. It doesn't get stuck there. I feel like that's like the post office for claims. We send it through and we make sure all of them get pushed through to the insurance company.   and then we follow up. And now this is where I need owners of each of them. So we need somebody to make sure that all of our intake process is correct. We need someone to make sure that our, what we send out in our claims is correct. And we tell the clinical team what we need for every single claim. And then from there, we have one person who owns our billing department. AR needs to have a clear owner. Who is our billing person that works on this every single day? Yes, you heard me. Because the goal is to get our claims paid within 30 days. You can do it. It's doable, but you gotta have a process.   So that person then their job is I recommend we run the AR list at the beginning of every single month. Then we put it into an Excel spreadsheet or however you want to do it. I found that it's easiest in Excel and then we have it color coded. And I like it to be broken down so that way the biller, their goal is to get through every single patient. Yes. And I have seen 2,500 patients, 7,500 patients. Like it is amazing how many like line items we can get. Hopefully you're more like the 500 to 700 patients on that AR list.   Then what we do from there is we've got patient portion and insurance portion. And what we want to do is we want to actually get this really, really dialed in to where we are collecting at time of service, the patient portion. My hope is that your patient portion that's due is very minimal. And the only time we have a patient portion due is because insurance didn't pay as much as we expected them to. So we got to go collect. We've already collected the money before they go out. Please, for the love of everything, holy do not let your patients just be like, I'll pay you with an insurance pays. Absolutely not.   collect the money today. It is much easier to collect today and give a refund than it is to go chase money. I'd rather you get paid today, wait on insurance. That's fine. But be like, hey, we call your insurance. We estimate really, really well. This is how much we're going to collect today. And then, hey, if it's good news, great. We're going to be able to get you a refund. And if it's not, then great. We're not going to have to call you and ask for as much in the future. So this is what we're estimating. This is our best estimate. We've called your insurance company. We've done everything we possibly can to make sure it's the best we can. And I guarantee you, we're going to take great care of you.   Collect the money. Then when it comes in, what I like for the biller to do is to look, what did this insurance company actually pay? And then go update your fee schedule to the true numbers, because fee schedules are just very generic, but for your area and your zip code, we actually like, if insurance billers will go through and look at that and be like, on a crown, Delta Dental actually pays $758. You're like, yeah, right here, it's like 500. Okay, so $558, but we had 500 in there.   Go update that so then we collect more accurately throughout the year. If we are really disciplined in this and our insurance biller will do this, your billing gets so much tighter and we have less money in our AR. Then we go through it, we go through every single claim. Now if your insurance is a lot in the AR, because we haven't worked it, you're gonna wanna work with the top pieces first. The most expensive, the biggest accounts, and I work insurance ones, and then I work patient ones. And I also am looking at the 90 days, and then the 60 days, and then the 30 days.   And then the zero, don't even like zero to 30. don't even touch that 30 to 60. Yes. 60 to 90. Yes. Over 90 for sure. I'm going to hit that. So you can sort your listing Excel of the biggest account balances. And we're going to call the insurance. We're going to call the patients because you feel like you made like a lot of progress. Also, we can look down at the bottom. Another thing too, is sometimes there's like $5, $10. If your insurance list is really big and your AR is really large, sometimes I recommend writing like below $10. Now this is your money. It's not mine. So you do what you want to do with it.   Sometimes I do recommend writing that off, but before we do it, we're to want to send statements to everybody, see if we can collect any of that. Then we have a set date where we're just going to write it off and call it bad debt. We're going to fix our processes moving forward. But if you will do this and you follow it and everybody follows it every single week, every single month, your AR is going to get cleaned up. So people are like, but it's so hard. And we have like one person who owns it. And I say like Tuesdays and Thursdays are insurance and Monday, Wednesday, Fridays are patients. And we call our patients and we do our insurance.   and we clean it up and we get the correct fee schedules and we make sure that we're following up consistently. We're hearing, excuse me, what they say on the ⁓ claims. We're hearing what they are denying. Also, just because it's on a claim and they on an EOB and they say, you need to write this off. We do need to be really smart on insurance and we don't just say, we wrote it off. Absolutely not. We double check, we verify why was it written off? What were the reasons for it? Can we resubmit it? Can we get this paid? Is this a patient portion that needs to be paid?   Do not just write it off because the EOB says it was written off. So we do not do that. Then what I also recommend is we often wait till the end of the month. We talk to our billers and they didn't get through all their AR. Office managers should be meeting every single week with their billing coordinator and the biller needs to be reporting. Here's how much AR I've completed. This is where I'm at. This is my plan for the next week. I'm going to get through every single patient this month. Also, we do not just send statements out. People love to do this. I'm very pro.   We call first, we text and then we send a statement. Why not just call them right then and there and be like, hey, Kiera, great news. We got insurance paid, we owe this amount and I can take card when you're ready and get that all cleared up for you. Send them a text with the payment link. Here you go, this is the balance and they will pay it. Send them a statement that has a QR code to pay online. You guys stop having them write checks and send it to the practice. Make it easy, talk to your payment processor. I love Moola for this. They make it so easy for patients to pay and their fees are so low. So if you need it, tell Moola, The Dental A Team, sent you.   They're incredible and they're a great processor for you. But this is where it has to be. And I'm really big on what we need to have our goals be. So I like to make this simple. Our over 90 should be no more. All of our collective AR should be no more than one month's worth of collection. So if you're producing 100,000, there should be no more than 100,000 sitting in AR. you've got more than that, let's fix   the way I like the goals to be is I like it to be it's no more than 15 % is in our 30 to 60. And the reason why is because that's going to be pretty big. Now zero to 30, I don't worry about, but it's 15 % or less in our 30 to 60. Then it's 10 % or less in our 60 to 90 and less than 5 % over in our over 90. We want to make sure that it follows that. So that way you guys are able to, but great. And those are very generic and you can get those lower. The only thing that usually impacts are over 90 are usually payment plans and also ortho.   So if you have those in there, there are ways that we can discuss with you on how to get those out to clean up your AR, but you've got to have this structured. We've got to have this to where people are following it. And we need to get this in every single week and like truly work with our billers. And if offices will follow this, you guys, this is something that is not hard, but it does take discipline and discipline does equal freedom. And doctors, had a doctor and she was just like, Kiera, I'm not making any money. And I was like,   I don't understand because you have so much money in AR and your production's so great, but we're not collecting the money. So step one is we collect. Now, if your AR is also like ballooned out of control, we can fix it and we collect money when they check in and we make sure we collect on the checkout. So this way we're catching both sides of when patients are in the practice. And some people are weird about that. And I'm like, why are you weird about that? We know they have a balance and we're gonna collect it when they check in. Think about going to the doctor's office. So like perfect, they collect money as soon as you check in every single time.   It's not weird for people to do that in healthcare. So let's collect on the intake and let's collect on the outtake when we're giving the treatment plans. These two areas are gonna fix AR and people are like, that's so hard. And I'm like, I would much rather collect money when they're in the practice rather than needing to call them. Also, another mode of thought is I don't ever give more than 1 % of collections in refund checks every single month. So refunds and credits can get really ballooned people are like freaked out about that. Cause maybe like collected too much, which is like,   High five, good. I'm not saying over collect, like, hey, insurance paid more like that's a win. But before we give those refund checks out, those are the ones I'm gonna call first to see, do they have unscheduled treatment? Like, hey, great news, your insurance paid more than we thought. Let's get you scheduled, let's use that credit for this treatment. So it's a great way to fill your schedule too. But hey, if there's a true credit on the account, let's just start writing 1%. So if we're producing 100,000, what's 1 %? You got it, a thousand bucks, okay?   So 1 % of that, we're gonna then write those refund checks back for that month. This way it doesn't hurt your overhead of time. Now watch because there are certain state laws that do require you to give refunds sooner than that. So check your state laws and make sure like whatever it is. There are some new ones that have just come out. So be sure to check that so you're compliant with your state laws. If there's nothing about it, 1 % is usually a pretty good frame of mind. So that was a quick down and dirty and I hope you enjoyed it. But really taking it from clean claims, you're welcome.   to fee schedules being entered in, to submitting claims and making sure they go through, to following up on our insurance, making sure that we're tracking that so everybody knows where our claims are at, what things are going on with that. And then from there, we're gonna make sure that we have ⁓ every single week check in with our biller. And billers know we want 15 % in our 30 to 60, 60 to 90 is 10%, over 90 is no more than 5%, no more than one month's worth of collections total in our AR, and giving back 1 % refunds.   You guys, this is something I obsessed about. This is something we work with billers on. I have a practice in Oklahoma that we worked with. They had 2,700 line items of this and we just worked with our team and we cleaned and we cleaned it and it took us about two years and we were able to get them back into perfect collections, perfect processes. It took a while, but discipline, dedication and setting these things into place now are going to protect you and prevent this from happening in the future. Also, there are some great AI companies that you can use.   ⁓ Lassie is a great one that I've heard of. There's a few new ones coming up on the market. So if you need help with it, insurance verification, you can outsource. We have a lot of resources. So if you need any email Hello@TheDentalATeam.com. And if you're like, I need help, I'm drowning, I'm not making money. Let's talk. Profit production guys. it's the way we get more profit. We either increase our production, decrease our spending or increase our collections. Those are the three levers. So whatever those three we need to work on. And sometimes it's so hard because you're like,   But like I'm doing dentistry all day long, Carrie, I have time. You're right. You're supposed to be the dentist and the CEO. Let us train your team for you. That's what we love to do. Work with you and your team. So reach out. Hello@TheDentalATeam.com. Commit to being profitable this year. Commit to getting your AR in place. Commit to following these billing tactics. You guys, it is not hard, but it does require discipline. And we're happy to help you set it up. We're happy to follow through. We're happy to show you how to have the conversations. We're happy to show your team how to do this. We're happy to build KPI scorecards so you can watch it and utilizing analytics for it. So it's never daunting and scary.   It's disciplined dedication and dedicated time to make sure this happens. And usually team members get scared and it feels daunting. So it's kind of like the laundry. just like keep letting it pile up, but doctors, this is your hard earned money. And I don't believe it should be like laundry that piles up. It'd be, should be something that we are actively engaged in fixing and working through to make sure that you're getting paid what you need to be paid. So reach out. Hello@TheDentalATeam.com.

I don't know if you had any heroes growing up, but I did, and I'll never forget the day I watched his reputation go down the drain…literally!  I was six years old and we had just moved to Oklahoma. We were staying at a local hotel, and my sister and I had gotten into a fight (Most certainly her fault). The next thing I knew, she had taken my Spider-Man action figure, ran to the bathroom, thrown him in the toilet and flushed him. I arrived in the bathroom just in time to see him swirl down the drain. I was shocked and devastated not only that my sister had done this, but that Spider-Man was apparently incapable of rescuing himself. He had been beaten by a toilet bowl! But in all seriousness, the Hebrews have some major heroes that they look back at in awe and wonder. The problem is this, from a biblical perspective, there is only one hero of the story. And in case you haven't figured it out at this point in our series, Jesus is a better hero! The heartbeat of Church on the Rock is to help people discover how they can LOVE God and LOVE one another, LIVE with passion, purpose and freedom, and LEAD others to this same experience in Jesus.

Your obsession with grammar is hurting your career. Native speakers break grammar rules all the time! Speaking confidence is what is important, not grammar perfection. In fact, you must break these "rules" if you want to sound confident and natural every time you speak English.

This week, the cosmos delivers the second Eclipse in Virgo at the South Node — a powerful moment of karmic clearing and sacred refinement. What are we ready to release? What patterns of over-functioning, over-fixing, or over-perfecting have quietly shaped our lives? This eclipse invites us to let go of what we've mastered but no longer need, making space for a more aligned future to emerge. Mars moves into Pisces, shifting our drive from sharp edges to subtle currents. Action becomes intuitive. Motivation becomes spiritual. We are asked to trust the invisible pull rather than force outcomes. Meanwhile, Venus steps boldly into Aries, reigniting desire and independence, only to meet first with Neptune and then Saturn. Romance, creativity, and values move through a mystical fog before being asked to stand on solid ground. What begins as inspiration must become embodied. What feels like fantasy must pass the test of reality. Release. Surrender. Ignite. Commit. This is a week of dissolving the old while daring to initiate something new — with both fire and faith guiding the way. All this and more on The Golden Astrologer Podcast. ✨

Why Some Patients Do Everything Right — and Still Don't Fully HealSome patients do everything right — and still don't fully heal.They follow the plan. Change their diet. Take the supplements. Commit to lifestyle shifts. Show up consistently. And yet something deeper remains unresolved.After more than twenty years in clinical practice, Dr. Adam Rinde has seen this pattern repeatedly. At some point, the question shifts from “What are we missing physically?” to “Is there another layer of healing we're not addressing?”In this episode of The One Thing Podcast, Dr. Rinde sits down with Eva Müller , an energy practitioner who works in the realm of emotional clearing and consciousness-based healing. Eva believes that unresolved emotional patterns, stored trauma, accumulated stress, and even ancestral influences may contribute to chronic illness in ways we don't always measure — but still experience.This conversation is not anti-medicine.It's an exploration of whether physical and energetic healing can work in parallel.• Why some patients hit a healing plateau• Emotional trauma and stored stress in the body• The concept of energetic root causes• Surrender vs. striving in chronic illness• Why groundedness matters in spiritual work• How energy-based practices can complement conventional care Eva Müller is an energy practitioner and meditation guide who works with high-vibrational energetic transmissions to support emotional clearing and expanded awareness.

Did Jack Smith Commit a Florida Felony? & Housing Affordability – Top 3 Takeaways - February 27th, 2026 

There's a difference between knowing a framework and owning it. Knowing is information in your head. Owning is a lens you see through. You can know something for years without ever owning it—and that's why so many entrepreneurs read every book, take every course, and stay stuck. The gap is crossed through reps and time. There's no shortcut. You use the framework until it stops being something you apply and starts being how you think. Your homework: Write down the 2-3 frameworks from February that hit hardest. Ask yourself: Do I know this, or do I own this? Commit to using them until they cross over.

Ashley brought up something interesting while we were all hanging out in the studio the other day and now we are going to talk about it... See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Episode Overview In this powerful episode of the Agent to CEO Podcast, John Kitchens sits down with Chad Smith for a deep conversation on leadership, faith, discipline, and building a real estate business that actually lasts. Chad shares his incredible journey—from chasing a music career and hitting rock bottom at 23, to rebuilding his life through faith, mentorship, and personal responsibility. He walks through how foundational principles—not tactics—became the key to scaling a $100M+ real estate team, leading hundreds of agents, and maintaining a 20+ year commitment to faith, family, and purpose. This is not a "hacks and scripts" conversation. This is about priority structure, uncommon honor, servant leadership, and what it truly takes to win long-term. If you want seven-figure success without sacrificing what matters most, this episode will challenge and sharpen you. Chad's Origin Story: From Rock Bottom to Real Estate Leadership Walking away from a soccer scholarship to pursue music Playing the Whiskey A Go Go in Hollywood at 20 years old Facing rejection and spiraling into rock bottom by age 23 The life-changing influence of his uncle and exposure to Rich Dad, Poor Dad Discovering a new framework for life through faith and the "Man of Honor" message Committing to a priority structure that changed everything Chad made a declaration early: He would never become a "shooting star" again. The Priority Structure That Changed His Life Chad breaks down the foundation that drives every decision he makes: Faith Marriage Children Excellence in business to serve others Rather than building business at the expense of family, Chad built leadership capacity so he wouldn't have to choose between success and presence. He hasn't worked nights or weekends since 2009—and his production scaled because of it, not in spite of it. Uncommon Honor: The Core Value That Scales Culture Chad introduces the concept of Uncommon Honor, a leadership philosophy that drives his team culture. What it means: Honor those who showed you the way Honor your peers Honor those who can't "help" you Tell the truth—even when it's uncomfortable Protect the environment at all costs "If at any point I'm unwilling to say what needs to be said, that's the moment the environment begins to die." This is servant leadership without weakness. Truth with courage. Culture without compromise. The Leadership Shift: From Competitor to Capacity Builder Chad shares a powerful mindset shift: If you're threatened by your team's greatness, you'll never scale. He lives by this commitment: "I'm not afraid of you being great." Key leadership insights: Every dream is a dream inside a dream The moment a leader becomes a limiting factor to talent is the moment the relationship ends Competition is rooted in scarcity True growth comes from competing against your own potential This is the shift from ego-driven leadership to legacy-driven leadership. Building a $100M+ Team Without Losing Alignment Chad details how he: Went from individual agent of the year to scaling leadership capacity Helped grow a Keller Williams office to one of the most profitable in the world Sold 371 homes in a 12-month period with a lean, disciplined team Built core values intentionally—not aspirationally Created "The Real Solution" coaching community rooted in long-term principles His focus isn't hype. It's systems, discipline, daily consistency, and alignment. The Real Solution vs. The Easy Button Chad challenges the modern "magic bullet" mentality. In a world obsessed with shortcuts, he built growth through: Daily consistency (260+ live leadership sessions per year) Clear values Intentional mentorship Long-term commitment "You either train the algorithm, or the algorithm trains you." This is about discipline over distraction. Foundation over flash. Books & Influences Mentioned Rich Dad, Poor Dad – Robert Kiyosaki The Success System That Never Fails – W. Clement Stone Wooten on Leadership – John Wooden John Maxwell leadership books Resources & Connect with Chad Instagram: @ChadSmithRealSolution Website: TheRealSolution.com Team: DFW Real Estate Team Final Takeaway This episode isn't about better scripts. It's about better structure. If you want to scale your real estate business without sacrificing your marriage, your kids, or your integrity, you must: Get your priority structure right Lead with uncommon honor Refuse to compete from scarcity Never become a limiting factor to your team Commit to consistency over hype Seven-figure success doesn't start with tactics. It starts with thinking like a CEO—and leading like a servant.

The PMP exam is evolving again.Starting July 2026, PMI is rolling out updates that reflect where project management is actually headed — hybrid delivery models, AI integration, data-driven decision-making, and stronger business alignment.If you're thinking about getting certified, already studying, or training others, this is not the time to drift.This is the time to get it sorted.What's Likely Changing?While PMI doesn't overhaul everything overnight, updates typically reflect:Greater emphasis on hybrid and adaptive deliveryMore real-world business acumen and strategic thinkingStronger focus on leadership influence over technical memorizationDeeper integration of technology, automation, and AI-enabled workflowsScenario-heavy questions that test judgment under pressureTranslation: less textbook recall, more applied thinking.What This Means for YouIf you plan to take the PMP before July 2026:You still have a window to prepare under the current structure.Your study materials remain valid.Momentum matters — don't stall.If you're taking it after July 2026:Expect refined domains.Expect updated examples.Expect more real-world nuance.Expect decision-making depth over process trivia.The fundamentals won't disappear — Integration, Scope, Schedule, Cost, Risk, Stakeholders — those pillars stay.But how they are tested will continue shifting toward leadership and business impact.The Bigger PictureThe PMP is not becoming easier.It's becoming more relevant.PMI is aligning the credential with how projects are actually delivered in 2026:Distributed teamsCloud infrastructureAI-supported planningContinuous delivery environmentsBusiness-first accountabilityThat means you can't just memorize outputs.You must understand flow.You must understand intent.You must understand why.What You Should Do NowDecide your timeline.Commit to a structured study plan.Focus on logic and sequencing — not rote memorization.Practice scenario-based questions.Build judgment, not just recall.If you've been “thinking about” PMP… stop thinking.Act.July 2026 is not far away.Get it sorted.

Body Language - Make These Instant Changes to Master Every Interview & Close Every Deal | Mark Bowden Body Language Expert InterviewMost people walk into high-stakes meetings hoping their content will carry them. Mark Bowden knows better: audiences form unconscious judgments about you in seconds via body language, and you can control exactly what they feel.What You'll Learn:The Theory of Mind Framework: Audiences unconsciously form a "theory of mind" about you, their prediction of how you're thinking and feeling toward them, based 55% on body language, 38% on tone, and only 7% on words.The Four Gesture Planes: Hand positions trigger specific emotions. Truth plane (naval height, open palms) signals honesty; passion plane (chest height) creates energy; thought plane (higher) builds vision; grotesque plane (below belt) triggers negative judgment.The MBT Framework: "Make a choice, Make it Bigger, Keep it Tidy." Commit fully to one gesture plane, amplify it, and hold it long enough for audiences to process, transforming scattered movement into confident communication.The Influence and Persuasion Model: Influence means understanding their perspective; persuasion means presenting choices to guide decisions. This changes minds more effectively than assertiveness (telling) because people feel ownership of the outcome."No matter how good your business is, no matter how good your pitch is, I'm in charge not only of how I feel, but I can be in charge of what you feel."Mark Bowden's Background:Mark Bowden is a globally recognised body language and human behaviour expert who advises leaders and executives worldwide.If You Haven't Started: Sit a hand-span away from the table with resources an arm's length away to encourage open gestures.If You're Already Presenting: Choreograph key moments using the truth plane (naval height) for credibility, the passion plane (chest height) for goals, and the grotesque plane for obstacles. Apply MBT: make one gesture choice per idea, amplify it, and hold it.For Everyone: Master the influence model: ask questions to understand their perspective, acknowledge it, then present choices and let them decide.This episode is sponsored by SEDULO: One of the UK's fastest growing mid-tier business advisory firms, for good reasonFind out more at: https://sedulo.co.uk/ Hosted on Acast.

One percent can change everything.   On The Abundance Mindset, Vinney Chopra breaks down tier investing — a strategy that naturally encourages investors to level up. Clear structure builds trust, momentum, and larger commitments.  

In this episode, I talk about something I've learned over decades of trial and error — you don't always have to do it the hard way. I've spent a lifetime figuring things out the long way. My interns don't have to. They've chosen to step into an environment where they can learn from the mistakes, adjustments, and experience that took me years to develop. That's not weakness — that's wisdom.No matter what you're trying to get better at, look for ways to shorten your learning curve. Use the resources available to you. Seek out people who are where you want to be. Ask questions. Commit. Put yourself in the room.Progress doesn't happen by accident. You have to create opportunities for yourself. And sometimes the smartest thing you can do is decide you're done trying to figure it all out alone.If you're serious about improving your horsemanship — or any skill — this one's for you.

Dr. Anshu Chandra, founder of the Global Eye Project, has dedicated her career to solving this crisis. Since 2015, her nonprofit has worked to provide free eye exams, advanced treatments, and a sustainable care model by training local staff.During today's episode, Anshu shared how her transformative journey began. After witnessing the dire conditions during a mission trip to India, she decided to focus her career on providing eye care to underserved communities. “I saw how much need there was for eye care and how rare it was for people to have access,” Anshu explained. This realization ultimately led her to Haiti, where the need for care was “so tremendous” she couldn't look away.In 2015, she moved to Haiti with two suitcases—one filled with personal items, the other with medical equipment. Partnering with a local hospital, she established a clinic that has grown into a vital resource for the entire country. The clinic has provided over 132,000 free eye exams and performed more than 7,000 advanced procedures, including laser treatments and surgeries.But the impact doesn't end there. Anshu's commitment to sustainability has led to the training of local staff, many of whom now run the clinic independently. “Some of my staff members are orphans, and they're now supporting their families and caring for their community,” she shared.The Global Eye Project is now raising $300,000 to build a new facility that will expand its services. The proposed clinic will include a surgical center and an optical lab, enabling the nonprofit to become more financially independent. It will also allow the team to continue offering free consultations to ensure no one is turned away.By addressing a critical need with compassion and ingenuity, Anshu is not only restoring sight but also creating opportunities for individuals and communities to thrive. You can support this life-changing work by visiting GlobalEyeProject.org and contributing to their campaign.tl;dr:Dr. Anshu Chandra founded the Global Eye Project to combat preventable blindness in underserved communities.The nonprofit has provided over 132,000 free eye exams and 7,000 advanced treatments in Haiti.Anshu's sustainable model trains local staff to deliver care, empowering the community long-term.The Global Eye Project is raising $300,000 to build a new clinic with expanded capabilities.Anshu's journey highlights the power of thinking outside the box to solve pressing global challenges.How to Develop Thinking Outside the Box As a SuperpowerAnshu's superpower is her ability to think outside the box to solve complex challenges. Reflecting on her work, she explained, “I didn't see a reason why this couldn't happen. How hard could it be to go there, put up a clinic, and train locals?” Her innovative mindset enabled her to approach Haiti's eye care crisis creatively, building a sustainable model that trains locals to provide care independently.One of the most striking examples of Anshu's superpower is how she started her clinic in Haiti. Arriving with minimal resources, she trained local staff by having them practice on volunteers. Without advertising, word spread, and lines of patients formed. Over time, she transformed a rudimentary clinic with dirt floors into a well-equipped facility with 11 exam rooms, advanced diagnostic tools, and a sustainable care model.Tips for Developing the Superpower:Reframe obstacles as opportunities.Focus on the goal rather than the limitations.Start small but think big—break projects into manageable steps.Commit your time, energy, and resources to what you believe is possible.Build partnerships and accept help from others.By following Anshu's example and advice, you can make thinking outside the box a skill. With practice and effort, you could make it a superpower that enables you to do more good in the world.Remember, however, that research into success suggests that building on your own superpowers is more important than creating new ones or overcoming weaknesses. You do you!Guest ProfileDr. Anshu Chandra (she/her):Founder, Global Eye ProjectAbout Global Eye Project: Founded in the United States, the Global Eye Project has grown to include volunteers and donors from all over the world. Together we are empowering local communities by building locally managed sustainable eye clinics through education initiatives and volunteer run professional training services to reduce the need for outside support. With your support, we will make eye care a right, not a privilege.Website: globaleyeproject.orgCompany Facebook Page: facebook.com/Global-Eye-Project-254480721322382Instagram Handle: @globaleyeprojectCompany Twitter Handle: @EyeCareForAllBiographical Information: Anshu has worked in Haiti for the last 15 years building and advancing eye care for the poor. She is working to end disparities in eye care globally by bringing this service to remote areas and giving them health equity. She's leading our efforts in Haiti and has built a permanent eye clinic in Fond-des-Blancs which provides client care and training for local residents. She's also collaborating with other institutions in Haiti providing care via mobile clinics to address the immediate need as well as working on more permanent solutions by helping to further develop the Haitian ophthalmology residency program in Port-au-Prince. This would provide advanced training and access to equipment and supplies so ALL Haitians can have high quality eye care.She holds a Doctor of Optometry degree and did her residency from SUNY College of Optometry in New York. She was raised in India and the USA where her mother worked as a social worker with under-served communities and created programs to strengthen various skills to make members more independent. These influences have given Anshu an understanding of the needs of disadvantaged populations as well as practical, simple solutions to address those needs. Anshu has also provided eye care to communities in Nepal, Haiti, Peru, Lebanon, Tanzania, Honduras, Guatemala, Dominican Republic, Mexico, Indonesia, and India.The Super Crowd, Inc., a public benefit corporation, is proud to have been named a finalist in the media category of the impact-focused, global Bold Awards.Support Our SponsorsOur generous sponsors make our work possible, serving impact investors, social entrepreneurs, community builders and diverse founders.

In this incredibly candid conversation, Nikki Krishnamurthy (Chief People Officer at Uber) joins Jessica Neal (former Chief Talent Officer at Netflix) to discuss the high-stakes reality of leading people through crisis, transformation, and the AI revolution.Nikki opens up about the "Strategic Calmness" required to navigate Uber's most turbulent years, from handling global layoffs to dismantling a culture of leaks and entitlement. She shares the internal mechanics of her 13-year partnership with Uber CEO Dara Khosrowshahi, explaining why a Chief People Officer must act as a business leader first and why being "the mirror" for a CEO is the most important, and loneliest, part of the job.We dive deep into:The C-Suite Burden: Why the HR role has shifted into a hybrid of Chief Medical, Diversity, and AI Officer.The "Entitlement" Trap: How Uber moved from "investigating everything" back to a culture of high judgment and "doing the right thing."Managing Up: The exact moment Nikki gave Dara feedback and how that blunt honesty built a foundation of radical trust.AI vs. Innovation: Why Nikki is prioritizing "AI-native" college grads and her warning to big companies: Don't let efficiency kill your ability to invent.The Art of "Disagree and Commit": Navigating executive hires and knowing which hills are worth dying on.This is a masterclass in leadership, human psychology, and the raw reality of what happens behind the closed doors of the world's biggest tech companies.

First kilometer. Out in front. Everything clicking. Then the race turns, and the season suddenly feels different.Malachi Schoenherr is a senior who's built his career on patience, discipline, and trust in his process. Being a two-time Oregon State Champ, he's been one of the most consistent front-runners in the Northwest for years. And this season tested that identity.After finishing 2nd at the Oregon 6A State meet, he went into NXR Northwest as one of the clear favorites. He took control early and led through the first kilometer. Then the pace shifted. The field surged. He faded to 39th. One race that clashed with months of work and years of expectation.The disappointment stayed with him. So did the questions. Now is a moment to pause, reflect, and reset before one final track season.This conversation lives in that in-between space. The space between letting go of what happened and getting ready for what's next. We talk about identity, pressure, and learning how to compete freely again.If you enjoy the podcast, follow The Sunday Shakeout on Spotify and Apple Podcasts, and leave a five-star review.

You know the grammar rules. You can explain them perfectly. But when you try to SPEAK English, you freeze. Here's why: These 5 grammar rules are BLOCKING your fluency. Today, I'm showing you exactly which grammar rules to FORGET—and what to do instead to speak naturally and confidently. THE 5 GRAMMAR RULES TO FORGET: ❌ Rule #1: Articles (A, An, The) ❌ Rule #2: Perfect Tenses (Present Perfect, Past Perfect) ❌ Rule #3: Modal Verbs (Should, Would, Could, Must) ❌ Rule #4: Conditional Sentences (If-Then Structures) ❌ Rule #5: Subject-Verb Agreement These rules slow you down, make you nervous, and stop you from speaking naturally. After teaching for 30 years and helping over 40 million students worldwide, I can tell you: the ones who succeed are the ones who STOP obsessing over these rules. Instead, you need to learn with your ears, not your eyes. Use phrases, not isolated words. Listen deeply and repeatedly to natural English until it becomes automatic.
