For SaaS founders and revenue leaders, the path to profitability often feels unclear. The secret to monetizing your product isn't just about the numbers; it's about building lasting customer trust. In a recent interview, Bill Wilson of Pace Pricing broke down why a strong pricing strategy is a powerful growth lever. He emphasized that trust is your most valuable asset. Price changes, especially if mishandled, can destroy it overnight. The best way to build that trust is through transparency. Communicate what's changing and, more importantly, why. Customers are willing to accept price increases if they trust you and see the ongoing value you provide. Bill also warned against "unmanaged discounting," which can devalue your product and destroy margins. By establishing clear policies and avoiding discounts on your core value metrics, you can protect your brand and ensure long-term health. Ultimately, confident monetization comes from understanding your true value and communicating it clearly, which in turn builds a powerful foundation of customer loyalty.    

Part 1 The fifth agreement by Miguel Ruiz SummaryThe Fifth Agreement by Don Miguel Ruiz and José Luis Ruiz Summary The Fifth Agreement builds upon the principles outlined in the acclaimed The Four Agreements by Don Miguel Ruiz. It offers a deeper understanding of personal freedom and the nature of reality. The book introduces a fifth agreement that complements the original four: The Five Agreements:Be Impeccable with Your Word: Speak with integrity and say only what you mean. Avoid using the word against yourself or to gossip about others. Don't Take Anything Personally: What others say and do is a projection of their own reality. Don't take their actions or words personally, as they are reflecting their own issues. Don't Make Assumptions: Find the courage to ask questions and express what you really want. Communicate clearly to avoid misunderstandings. Always Do Your Best: Your best will change from moment to moment, depending on your circumstances. Always strive to give your best effort without self-judgment or regret. Be Skeptical, But Learn to Listen: This is the new agreement. It encourages questioning the beliefs and stories we hold while also being open to listening and understanding others without jumping to conclusions. Core Concepts:Questioning Reality: The book emphasizes the importance of questioning what we perceive as truth. The idea is to challenge ingrained beliefs and perceptions, allowing for greater clarity and understanding. Listening: True listening means being open to others' points of view without filtering their words through our own biases and assumptions. This fosters deeper connections and enhances communication. Personal Freedom: By practicing these agreements, individuals can achieve a profound sense of personal freedom. It encourages breaking free from societal norms and personal limitations. The Power of Thought: Our thoughts shape our reality. By being mindful of our thoughts and words, we can create a better life for ourselves and others. Conclusion:The Fifth Agreement serves as a guide for individuals seeking to enhance their personal development and relationships. By embracing its principles, readers are encouraged to cultivate awareness, foster genuine communication, and create a more harmonious existence. The essence of the teachings is about living authentically, recognizing our power, and remaining open-minded in our interactions with the world.Part 2 The fifth agreement AuthorMiguel Ruiz is a Mexican author and spiritual teacher best known for his books on personal development and ancient Toltec wisdom. He was born on August 27, 1952, in rural Mexico and comes from a family of healers and teachers. Ruiz is particularly famous for his first book, "The Four Agreements," which outlines principles for personal freedom and a fulfilling life. The Fifth AgreementRelease Date: "The Fifth Agreement" was released in 2010.

Doug McClure, Senior Counsel at Northrop Grumman, shares lessons learned from more than two decades of in-house practice across heavy industry, infrastructure, and now one of the world's largest aerospace and defence contractors.Doug reflects on his eight years supporting Northrop Grumman's European operations—navigating a highly regulated, high-stakes sector that demands clarity, trust, and creativity. He begins with the cornerstone of his approach: communication. Doug explains why over-communicating, building personal credibility, and managing expectations are non-negotiable for in-house lawyers, particularly when working across global teams and cultural contexts.His second lesson is all about solutions. Saying “no” is sometimes necessary, but more often than not, Doug argues, the real skill is finding a way forward—even if it means finding a “third way” that balances business ambition with risk.Finally, Doug talks about the importance of managing expectations: balancing competing priorities, under-promising and over-delivering, and ensuring stakeholders feel heard—especially in the high-pressure, fast-changing world of defence procurement.Guest Recommendations: • Podcast: The Rest is History – Doug particularly enjoyed the episode on Hannibal and the Battle of Cannae • Book: Sapiens by Yuval Noah Harari – An engrossing exploration of how humans have adapted and shaped the worldAbout Heriot Brown: Heriot Brown is a leading global recruitment business specialising in the in-house legal market.

The truth is, death doesn't sever bonds. Love doesn't end with a last breath. And if you've ever longed for one more moment, one more word, one more chance to say I love you… This might change everything.  In this powerful episode, I sit down with my dear friend Rebecca Rosen, a celebrated evidential medium and soul guide, for a live, unfiltered session that bridges worlds. Together, we explore how grief, while devastating, can also become a doorway, not just to healing, but to a connection far deeper and more enduring than you ever thought possible. Like so many of you, I've wrestled with the ache of loss, and I've also seen how that ache cracks us wide open to experiences that defy logic but speak straight to the soul. The truth is, our loved ones aren't gone. They're speaking… just in a different language. And once you learn how to hear them, you'll realize they've been with you all along.  We dive into: Why mediumship isn't reserved for a “special few,” and that we all have the gift of intuition How grief, trauma, and even daily stress can block your ability to connect—and how to shift it The difference between the 3D, 4D, and 5D realms (and how to access higher guidance) What the Akashic Records are and how they can reveal messages from your soul family How to spot signs from your loved ones and strengthen your trust in their presence Simple practices to raise your vibration, heal energetically, and create "heaven on earth" The truth about soul contracts, soul groups, and why even loss can serve your spiritual growth If you've ever doubted the whispers of your heart, this conversation will awaken you to a love that never dies. Press play. Open your mind. And prepare to meet them again, for the first time. P.S. Don't miss Rebecca's What's Your Heaven?—a breathtaking guide to finding peace now, not just in the afterlife.

In this episode, I had three experts come on the show, but they're not the typical experts I have on Focus Forward. I got to sit down with three incredible teens, Eliza, Mark, and Sam, to talk honestly about conflict and how to manage it between teens and adults. This episode is one I've been wanting to do for so long and I'm thrilled to bring it to you today.We covered everything from communication styles to what it feels like to be misunderstood, and even how trust is built—or broken—in those tricky conversations. And of course, I couldn't not mention EF skills, so you'll hear me comment here and there on how key executive function skills like self-regulation, flexible thinking, and perspective-taking show up in real life and impact us during conflict and resolution. Listen to learn from these teens about the importance of creating space for mistakes and learning, and how trust is the answer - we have to work to trust them and they us. It's a hard journey that we're all making together. These teens were thoughtful, vulnerable, and wise beyond their years. I think you'll walk away with some valuable insight—and maybe even a few moments of, "Oof… yeah, I've done that as a parent or teacher." I know I experienced this multiple times! But, as we've heard Ellen Galinsky, Nerissa Bauer, Ken Gisburg, and others, say, it's never too late to make a difference in how you interact with your kids.

In this encore episode of Down the Garden Path podcast, landscape designer Joanne Shaw offers mid-season advice for your lawn and garden. Topics covered in this week's episode: YES, you can still plant this summer. You do not need to wait until fall. Summer is always a good time to pick up a good sale on plants, just check that the roots are healthy. The roots are the most important thing to look at in mid-summer, especially on discounted plant material. It may not do much this year, but it will be even better next year. Tree and shrub planting is fine, but you need to be around home to water in case of drought. If you are away for a few days, that is fine. Consider using a tree watering bag for your trees or even timers for sprinklers. The important thing is to be around to keep an eye on your newly planted trees. Also, remember the sign of too much water is the same as not enough. So, check the soil deeply if your plant appears to be struggling. Mid-summer is Japanese beetle season. I want to reassure you that Japanese beetle traps work, when used according to instructions. Read the instructions! Place the trap far away from the garden and plants (including your neighbours' plants) Communicate with your close neighbours; you don't all need a trap. Follow the distance guidelines in the instructions and you will be fine. The key is to capture as many as possible before they lay their eggs in your lawn, which turn into grubs. Native Plants There's so much talk about native plants and only using them in your garden. If it is overwhelming, don't worry. There are a lot of non-native plants that pollinators love. There is no need to remove plants or shrubs to add native plants -- unless you have invasive plants, or you want to. I suggest a few mid-season native bloomers that can be added now. Many native plants are spring or fall bloomers and many can become invasive or spreaders, so keep that in mind when choosing them. Removing seed heads will help with their spread. Mid-summer is also crabgrass season. It is important to pull it out before it goes to seed. Try not to cut grass when it has gone to seed because that spreads the seed to create more weeds for next year. If you have a large lawn and or a large amount of crabgrass, consider bagging your grass for the rest of the season to try to prevent as many weeds as possible for next year.

David: Hi, and welcome back to today's episode, co-host Kevin Rosenquist and I discuss the lead quality matrix. Welcome back, Kevin. Kevin: Good to be here. Excited to chat about this, because I don't know what you're talking about. Kevin: So what is this lead quality matrix and why is it important? David: Well, a lot of times in my work with clients, we're talking about leads. "I need more leads" and "I got to get more leads," everybody's always talking about leads, which is very important. But as we're getting these leads in the door, sometimes it's a good idea to say, "okay, well who do I actually want to bring in?" Now, in our work with clients, we are very big on qualification. We want to make sure that the leads that we bring in are being qualified as quickly as possible. Because if they're not qualified, we don't really want to spend a whole lot of time interacting with them. So when we're bringing new leads through the door, obviously we're going to try to disqualify the not so great ones in the early stages. But also when we're putting stuff out into the market, whether it's a social media post or an email or we're meeting somebody for the first time at a networking function, whatever it is, we want to try to get an idea of the quality of the lead as early in the process as possible. When I talk about the lead quality matrix, if you just sort of imagine a graph. And going across the bottom is Willingness to Communicate. Are they willing to communicate? And so the farther you go to the right, the more willing they are to communicate with you and then going up and down is money to spend. Do they have money to spend? If they have a lot of money to spend, that goes up. If they don't, it's at the bottom. So if you think of that as being the matrix. You start off in the lower left hand corner, you've got people who have no money to spend who are not communicative. That's kind of easy, right? Kevin: Yeah. Those aren't ideal. David: Right. We know what we're doing with those people. We're going to jettison them as soon as humanly possible. In the upper right, we have those who are highly communicative and who have money to spend. So what do we call those people? Like ideal clients, I would say, right, high quality leads. This is the sweet spot. This is where I want to be. This is what I'm looking for, right? Kevin: Right. David: So that's kind of obvious. What's less obvious, and in some ways more interesting is the other corners, right? If you look at some of the other corners and you say, okay here are a bunch of people who are extremely communicative. They'll communicate all day, they'll talk to you till they're blue in the face, but they have no money to spend. Huge time wasters. Many people will go to networking functions and talk to people like this for hours on end, weeks at a time, because they never take the time to just do the simple math on it and say, okay, highly communicative, unable to spend. So that's an interesting group of people. Then we have the other extreme, which is people who have a lot of money to spend, but they're just not talking to you. So if they have a lot of money to spend, if it's a big client, big company, very self-important, but they won't return your phone calls, and they won't talk to you... You decide how long you want to deal with that sort of thing. Kevin: Yeah. David: And those are just the four most extreme points. But it really is obvious when you look at it like that. Kevin: And we've all chased the white whale or whatever that has all the money and you're wanting it so bad to get them as a client. Because you know it'll be lucrative. But I don't know. Those people tend to be very difficult to deal with too if you finally do land them. David: Well, yeah, particularly if they're not communicative. I mean, we could do another grid, that has good people, bad people, right? It's a similar kind of thing. Yeah.

Driving is one of the activities that we sometimes take for granted as we age. We assume our abilities to drive will mostly stay intact but in reality, driving can become very dangerous as you get older not only for yourself but for others. If you are someone who is a care taker for an aging person that still drives, how do you address this issue if you notice their abilities to drive becoming unreliable? In This Episode You Will Learn: 1). Why we decided to start a "Care Taker" series of episodes and how this topic of addressing driving and aging is important to discuss. 2). Some of the risks involved with allowing an aging person to continue driving well beyond their cognitive abilities to do so safely. 3). Why it's important to express your concerns about driving in a kind and gentle way. 4). Some examples of how you can bring up the subject and put it in a light of making sure everyone needs to be safe when in the car whether passenger or driver. 5). Making sure to be sympathetic to this change for the aging person in a respectful and caring manner. /// We hope the tips and suggestions in this episode are helpful if you are taking care of someone who is losing the ability to drive safely. It can be very difficult to talk to an aging person on why you think they shouldn't be driving, at least maybe not in the capacity that they are used to. Making sure to approach this situation with respect, dignity and care will be the best way to acknowledge a better path for all involved.

Most of us know something about the grand theories of physics that transformed our views of the universe at the start of the twentieth century: quantum mechanics and general relativity. But we are much less familiar with the brilliant theories that make up the backbone of the digital revolution. In Beautiful Math: The Surprisingly Simple Ideas behind the Digital Revolution in How We Live, Work, and Communicate (MIT Press, 2024) Chris Bernhardt explores the mathematics at the very heart of the information age. He asks questions such as: What is information? What advantages does digital information have over analog? How do we convert analog signals into digital ones? What is an algorithm? What is a universal computer? And how can a machine learn?The four major themes of Beautiful Math are information, communication, computation, and learning. Bernhardt typically starts with a simple mathematical model of an important concept, then reveals a deep underlying structure connecting concepts from what, at first, appear to be unrelated areas. His goal is to present the concepts using the least amount of mathematics, but nothing is oversimplified. Along the way, Bernhardt also discusses alphabets, the telegraph, and the analog revolution; information theory; redundancy and compression; errors and noise; encryption; how analog information is converted into digital information; algorithms; and, finally, neural networks. Historical anecdotes are included to give a sense of the technology at that time, its impact, and the problems that needed to be solved. Taking its readers by the hand, regardless of their math background, Beautiful Math is a fascinating journey through the mathematical ideas that undergird our everyday digital interactions.

Most of us know something about the grand theories of physics that transformed our views of the universe at the start of the twentieth century: quantum mechanics and general relativity. But we are much less familiar with the brilliant theories that make up the backbone of the digital revolution. In Beautiful Math: The Surprisingly Simple Ideas behind the Digital Revolution in How We Live, Work, and Communicate (MIT Press, 2024) Chris Bernhardt explores the mathematics at the very heart of the information age. He asks questions such as: What is information? What advantages does digital information have over analog? How do we convert analog signals into digital ones? What is an algorithm? What is a universal computer? And how can a machine learn?The four major themes of Beautiful Math are information, communication, computation, and learning. Bernhardt typically starts with a simple mathematical model of an important concept, then reveals a deep underlying structure connecting concepts from what, at first, appear to be unrelated areas. His goal is to present the concepts using the least amount of mathematics, but nothing is oversimplified. Along the way, Bernhardt also discusses alphabets, the telegraph, and the analog revolution; information theory; redundancy and compression; errors and noise; encryption; how analog information is converted into digital information; algorithms; and, finally, neural networks. Historical anecdotes are included to give a sense of the technology at that time, its impact, and the problems that needed to be solved. Taking its readers by the hand, regardless of their math background, Beautiful Math is a fascinating journey through the mathematical ideas that undergird our everyday digital interactions.

Crowds follow individuals who communicate well. Every business, church, school, or ministry needs such people. Help your kids know how to speak well. Create opportunities for them to stand in front of other people and speak about anything. Ask your six-year-old to stand in front of the family at night and talk about his favorite super-hero. We can also challenge boys to write clearly - to present an idea and support it with evidence. We live in a day where the battle for culture rages around who controls the flow of ideas. Help your children know how to open their mouths and communicate verbally. Talk about great ideas in your home, and challenge your children to learn to communicate those ideas.For more encouragement and parenting advice, visit Trail Life USA or RaisingGodlyBoys.com.

This week on The Intuition Activation Podcast, I'm diving into a topic I've been dying to explore on the show: animal communication. I've had so many clients ask me if I can talk to their pets, and while I've dabbled a bit myself, I knew I had to bring on an expert. Enter the amazing Nick Mua, an animal communicator and medium who opened my eyes (and heart) to the incredible wisdom our animals carry. In this episode, Nick shares how he discovered his intuitive gifts—hint: it didn't start with animals—and how a visit to a psychic medium completely changed his path. He walks us through what it really means to communicate with animals, how our pets mirror our energy, and why they often show up in our lives as spiritual guides in disguise. This conversation had me rethinking everything I thought I knew about pets, intuition, and how we receive messages from the universe. Whether you're curious about connecting with your own pet, wondering how to deepen your intuitive gifts, or just looking for a heart-expanding conversation, this one's for you. In this episode, I share: How Nick discovered he could talk to animals (and why his cat Chucky might actually be his teacher) The difference between animal communication and other forms of mediumship How our pets reflect our energy and guide us back to alignment What it means when your dog won't go outside or your cat suddenly changes behavior Why animals often show up to shift us out of the mundane and into purpose Tips for how you can start communicating with your pets right now The importance of meditation and how to use it to strengthen your intuition What non-human communication really means and why it extends beyond animals Connect with Nick:  Instagram: @nick.mua Website: nickmua.com Nick also offers 1:1 coaching and intuitive animal readings!

Discover how embracing AI can free up your team to focus on what matters most – making a meaningful impact in your community. Want to Skip Ahead? Here are Some Key Takeaways: 03:31 AI as a Tool for Personal and Business Growth It is important to identify what brings joy and generates income, then using AI and automation to handle necessary tasks that don't fall into those categories. This approach allows for better time management and increased productivity. 11:05 Balancing Automation and Personalization There are concerns about AI and automation leading to depersonalization. Start with what works manually, then automate 80% of it. This approach saves time and increases productivity while still maintaining quality through human supervision. Pay attention to the iterative nature of implementing AI solutions in business. 18:20 Understanding AI Agents and Their Applications There are different types of automations, including linear, AI-powered, and AI agents. AI agents can be used in businesses, such as replacing receptionists for appointment booking. It's important to have proper training and data input for effective AI implementation. 24:26 Transparency and Practical Implementation of AI Transparency is so important when using AI in organizations. Communicate the use of AI to stakeholders, emphasizing its benefits. Attach AI implementation to specific outcomes that solve pain points for users. 28:10 Getting Started with AI in Business Start by describing the problem and desired outcome to ChatGPT, then consulting with multiple vendors. The importance of asking the right questions and starting with a proof of concept is important. Don't miss this opportunity to gain practical knowledge on harnessing AI to enhance your nonprofit's efficiency and donor engagement. Tune in for a conversation that could transform your approach to digital strategy and fundraising. Resources Follow Aarti on Insta and DM her FC-Pod to receive her playbook to adopt AI. Aarti Anand After years of building SaaS products, Aarti saw businesses wasting time on outdated, manual prospecting and thought, “This is broken.” With AI on the rise, she knew the answer wasn't more outreach—it was smarter automation. Now, Aarti is on a mission to help businesses ditch the grind and scale faster.

Purchase A Jesus-Shaped Life here. Today's conversation on Back Porch Theology is the part-two sequel of An Antidote to Self-Centeredness Disguised as Spirituality. The bottom line is, it's more important than ever to embrace the gospel story as the ultimate lens through which we understand life or pretty soon everything's going to become blurry. Which underscores the new for a new kind of catechism – a fresh way to understand and communicate the concrete, biblical scaffolding of our belief system as Christ-followers. Dr. Trevin Wax calls what we're talking about today a disruptive discipleship tool…Alli and I can guarantee it'll put fresh wind in your sails. So please grab your favorite beverage and your Bible and pull your chair right next to ours on this proverbial porch – we're really glad you're here!

If I am you, and I have a job working for someone else, I'd start moving plan B to plan A right now. Build something that only you can do. That's your Tilt. Communicate that Tilt out in a regular way. Start building even a handful of followers. At some point, you'll be able to make a living off of that. If you want to build IP for someone else, go do that…but why? Why not build something that leads to complete and total freedom. We talk about freedom in this country, but most of us don't actually have it for many reasons. What's your reason? Could it be self inflicted? ------- Like this episode?

“The wisdom of the prudent is to give thought to their ways, but the folly of fools is deception.” — Proverbs 14:8Today, we're continuing our series on temperaments—how our God-given wiring shapes the way we communicate, relate to others, and make financial decisions. Kathleen Edelman is back with us, joined by Rachel Petty, as we take a closer look at the Green temperament and how it influences our approach to money.Kathleen Edelman is the author of I Said This, You Heard That: How Your Wiring Colors Your Communication. She is certified in Biblical Studies and Christian Counseling Psychology and has spent over 30 years coaching clients in the art of effective communication.Rachel Petty is a valued member of Kathleen Edelman's team and is our Green Temperament representative for this episode. What Are the Four Temperaments?The concept of temperaments dates back to Hippocrates, whom Galen followed in naming the four temperaments. Each temperament is a wiring we're born with—more like eye color than personality—and it shapes how we communicate, relate, and even handle money. The four types are:Yellow (Sanguine): Extrovert, people-oriented; speaks the language of people and fun.Red (Choleric): Extrovert, task-oriented; speaks the language of power and control.Blue (Melancholic): Introvert, task-oriented; speaks the language of perfection and order.Green (Phlegmatic): Introvert, people-oriented; speaks the language of calm and harmony.Temperament is your innate wiring. Personality develops through life experiences, but temperament remains relatively consistent.Meet the Green: Introverted and People-OrientedGreens are known as “relationship glue”—calm in chaos, steady in presence, and always people-conscious. They're inward processors, but also deeply relational.They are drawn to budgeting with others and long-term planning. They don't like flashy risks or micromanaging. They prefer round numbers and fewer check-ins.Because Greens crave harmony, they might avoid financial conflict or decisions altogether. But with gentle encouragement and time, they become wise and thoughtful stewards.Strategies That HelpRachel offers practical tools for those who fall under the Green category or know somebody who does:Stay involved. Greens can sometimes disengage easily. It's a discipline to speak up.Name what matters. Clarifying what's most important—whether for a trip or a purchase—helps prioritize.Set deadlines. It gives them the gentle nudge that action is needed.Greens thrive when respected and heard. Their insights are valuable—they just need time and space to process them fully.However, don't pressure a Green. Invite them in gently and clearly. They want to contribute—they just need the right environment.The Innate Needs of a GreenAccording to Kathleen, Greens have four core needs:Harmony – a peaceful environment.Lack of Stress – minimal conflict.Feeling of Worth – appreciation for who they are.Respect – being asked for their input.When these needs are met, Greens are kind, steady, and confident. When ignored, they may retreat or procrastinate.For those in the Green category, take the time to understand what matters to you and lean into your steady nature. And for those in a relationship with a Green—give them time, space, and encouragement. There's more going on than you might see.And remember this: if you are a Green, your calm is a gift. Advocate for yourself—peace sometimes requires courage. Your voice matters.Want More?If you've found this information valuable, make sure you don't miss Kathleen's latest article on temperaments, featured in the newest issue of Faithful Steward magazine.

I would very like to get a review from you. Please send a note to me. Thanks, Peter! like to much appreciate a review from you!! Thank you!Communication strategy has evolved dramatically in recent years, requiring professionals to understand not just how to craft messages, but how those messages are received by diverse audiences. Joshua Altman, Managing Director of Beltway Media in Washington DC, takes us on a fascinating journey through modern strategic communications, sharing invaluable insights from his experience working with both government agencies and private sector clients.At the heart of effective communication lies understanding what people "read, see, hear, and experience." Altman explains to host Peter Woolfolk how behavioral science principles reveal that audiences need to encounter messages 7-14 times before truly internalizing them, making strategic repetition across multiple touchpoints essential. The conversation examines how dramatically communication approaches must differ when targeting 100 key decision-makers versus 330 million Americans, illustrating the importance of tailoring strategies to specific audience parameters.Having worked as a contractor for the Department of Justice and Department of Commerce, Altman offers rare insights into the unique challenges of government communications. He describes the evolution from expensive satellite systems to modern digital platforms, highlighting how technology has democratized access while reducing costs. When working with clients starting from what they perceive as a "blank slate," Altman demonstrates how identifying and leveraging existing assets—from email lists to professional networks—can build confidence and create foundations for effective communication programs.Throughout the discussion, Altman emphasizes his role as a "fractional Chief Communications Officer" rather than simply a task vendor, integrating deeply with clients to shape perception and build trust over the long term. The conversation also explores open-source tools that can compete with expensive platforms, making sophisticated communication possible even with limited budgets. As Altman summarizes with his guiding principle: "Communicate strategically, not voluminously"—quality messaging will always triumph over sheer volume.Ready to transform your organization's communication strategy?

The Difference That Makes the Difference: NLP and the Science of Positive Change by Josh Davis, Greg Prosmushkin https://www.amazon.com/Difference-that-Makes-Science-Positive/dp/1250349087 Take control of your life and create profound change today using NLP and the science of positive change! Learn why people resist change, why they sometimes embrace change, and how to lead change quickly and in lasting ways. It all comes down to finding the difference that makes the difference for each person and context. Neurolinguistic Programming (NLP) is great for finding that difference. NLP helps us understand what makes people tick. When we understand how they think, feel, and act in key situations, we have the raw material with which to make change happen, often quickly and profoundly. In the 1970s, a linguist and his partner studied the language patterns and nonverbal cues of great psychotherapists, as well as how people are affected by the systems they're part of. The two pinpointed key aspects of what enables human beings to change. Their findings formed the basis of NLP. Since then, NLP has often been taught to therapists and life coaches aiming to master one-on-one interactions in those contexts. When the lawyer Greg Prosmushkin discovered NLP, he realized how incredibly valuable these tools could be outside a therapy context. How to communicate with confidence, model excellence, and influence your own and others' thoughts, feelings, and behaviors are useful for many people in many situations. Greg used NLP to make huge breakthroughs in his trials and to step into his own as an entrepreneur. In 2022, Greg met Josh Davis, PhD, a Columbia University PhD who studied psychology and neuroscience, and the Founder and Director of the Science-Based Leadership Institute. Josh is an NLP expert who grew up in the 1970s and 80s as the child of two pioneers in the field of NLP. He's an NLP native. He's been training others to use NLP for over a decade. Josh is also the internationally best-selling author of Two Awesome Hours, a science-based set of strategies to work less and get your most important work done. Greg and Josh set out to make NLP easily accessible for everyone. They show how the tools of NLP can be used by anyone in their daily work and personal lives, and connect these actionable tools to the science of change. The Difference that Makes the Difference is a result of their rigorous and dedicated collaboration. In this book, readers learn how to: -Communicate with confidence -Model excellence, to learn and master new skills -Influence their own and others' thoughts, feelings, and behaviors in positive ways -and much more! You'll get: -Step-by-step instructions with tips -Guided prompts to follow that help you apply these time-tested tools to your own specific needs -Examples of how to use the tools in everyday situations -Simple explanations of the theory and science behind the tools -Clear explanations of why the tools are so powerful NLP has been time-tested for fifty years, but until now it has only been accessible for a select few. Books and methods of teaching NLP were complex because the subject matter was highly sophisticated and derived from the work of professional psychotherapists. Greg Prosmushkin and Josh Davis, PhD have spent a combined 35+ years studying and unlocking the value of NLP. Josh has been teaching these concepts and tools in specialized NLP trainings, as well as one-on-one and group coaching settings, to Fortune 500 audiences and beyond. They have been using these concepts and tools in their professional practices of trial law, entrepreneurship, and leadership development. They have made a careful study of how to make the complex simple to learn and apply. It's time to move past simply waiting and wishing for your life to be different―dive into the tools of NLP and the science behind change that supports those tools,

From the Royal Society Summer Science Exhibition, we speak to Dr Beth Mortimer, from the University of Oxford, who is measuring seismic vibrations to track African elephants' communication.Elephants can feel vibrations through the ground from enormous distances, which can dictate their travelling routes through the savannah.Beth and her team buried 1,200 seismic ​nodes underground to measure the ground vibrations, which are ​more ​commonly ​used ​to ​study ​things ​like ​earthquakes ​and ​volcanoes.Archaeologists working on an excavation site in the UK's Cotswolds have discovered evidence of an Iron Age-Roman settlement.This comes after the find of two iron Roman cavalry swords.Plus, researchers in Spain say that even the softest of veg can damage our teeth, too.Also in this episode:-Jarvis Cocker marks the 100-year anniversary of the Shipping Forecast.-Why you may want to send a few more emojis to your loved ones... -The lost voices of monks to be heard again after 500 years.

In this compassionate and insightful episode, Clarissa and Molly dive into the phenomenon of post-event collapse—the physical, emotional, and psychological crash that can follow highly stimulating or meaningful experiences. Whether it's a vacation, a major life event, a group share, or even just navigating a family gathering, many in food addiction recovery find themselves disoriented and vulnerable in the days that follow. They unpack the biology (hello dopamine crash), psychology (emotional contrast effects), and the nervous system's role (freeze/dorsal vagal responses), and they offer gentle, practical strategies for reentry and recovery. This episode is both validating and empowering—for listeners in recovery and for clinicians supporting them.

The Music of Rest #RTTBROS #Nightlight The Music of Rest #RTTBROS #Nightlight The Music of Rest: Finding God's Rhythm in a Restless World"Come unto me, all ye that labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest." Matthew 11:28 (KJV)I violated the rest reality in the Bible to my own hurt, I almost self-destructed. I don't know where I came across this statement, but it's become a pattern I've tried to follow, and it was: "Divert daily, withdraw weekly, and abandon annually." The concept is that we need to have some rest built into each day, each week, and each year. I have been encouraging every pastor friend of mine to follow some version of this and build rest into the rhythm of their life. In music, they say that a rest is when there is no music, but the truth is there is the making of music in the rest. The rest is a vital part of the whole composition. God's design and desire is that the composition of our lives be well-pleasing to Him, and He's the one that established the rhythms of rest as well as the call to do business till He comes.Just as a musical composition needs rests to create beauty and meaning, our lives need intentional pauses to create space for God's presence and renewal. Without these rests, our life's song becomes a chaotic noise rather than a harmonious melody that glorifies our Creator.Five Practical Steps to Enter God's Rhythm of Rest1. Divert Daily (15-30 minutes): Set aside time each day to step away from your regular responsibilities. This could be a morning walk, evening prayer time, or simply sitting quietly with a cup of coffee while reflecting on God's goodness. Turn off devices and tune into God's presence.2. Withdraw Weekly (Half day to full day): Honor the Sabbath principle by dedicating regular time each week to rest from work and focus on worship, family, and spiritual renewal. This might mean saying no to certain commitments or work projects on your chosen day of rest.3. Abandon Annually (Several days to weeks): Plan extended periods of rest throughout the year, true vacations where you completely disconnect from work responsibilities. Use this time for deeper spiritual retreats, family bonding, or simply allowing your soul to be restored in God's presence.4. Create Rest Boundaries: Establish clear boundaries around your rest times. Communicate with family, friends, and colleagues about when you're unavailable. Let your voicemail, email auto-reply, and boundaries protect these sacred times of renewal.5. Practice the Presence of God in Rest: Don't just rest from work, rest in God. Use your rest times for prayer, Scripture reading, worship, or simply sitting in God's presence. Remember that true rest comes not just from the absence of activity, but from the presence of peace that only God can provide.Be sure to Like, Share, Follow and subscribe it helps get the word out.https://linktr.ee/rttbros
