LET'S TALK ABOUT THE COMPETENCY CRISIS IN COLORADO With former DA and now Common Sense Institute John Kellner at 1pm. They have written a very good report about it here. We will discuss it with John at 1.

Over the past months, For The Wild has journeyed to the Yukon in partnership with Illuminating Worldviews. Illuminating Worldviews is a space for examining the worldviews in which we find ourselves and to learn how they actively shape the material realities of our lives. This project, rooted and colored by the land of the Yukon invites questioning, examination, and future visioning centered in Indigenous ideology and the sentiment of journeying. In this conversation, Ayana is joined by Dr. Lee Brown and Elder Mark Wedge to discuss emotional competency and how we can regulate ourselves amidst all that this world brings. What does it mean to have a colonized heart? Is it to separate ourselves from our emotions? Touching upon the role of feeling in our overall wellbeing, they highlight how emotional regulation and connection are essential to the work of decolonization. This episode is a resounding testament to the healing that comes from embodiment and fully felt experience.Learn more at https://forthewild.world.CreditsThis series was produced thanks to the generous support of the team at Illuminating Worldviews, held by the RIVER collective and Northern Council for Global Cooperation. The music from this episode is “After the Rain” by Cole Pulice courtesy of Leaving Records, “Hyacinth and Apollo” by Carlisle Evans Peck, and “Marakaté” by Palo-Mah.This episode was created by Ayana Young, Erica Ekrem, Julia Jackson, and Victoria Pham.Support the show

Dicken Bettinger, Ed.D., received his undergraduate degree from St. Lawrence University and began his career teaching high school students.  Many students came to Dicken with problems that they were experiencing.  This began his search for something to teach people that would increase their well-being.  He received his master's degree from Pennsylvania State University and his Doctoral degree in counseling psychology from Boston University.  He became licensed as a clinical psychologist in 1983 and retired from his psychotherapy practice after working as a psychologist for 31 years. Thirty-three years ago, he met Sydney Banks who had an enlightenment experience where he realized the Three Principles that underlie all human experience. Dicken had finally found universal principles that he could teach anyone.  He was grateful to find something that was simple in nature yet had the profound effect of raising the quality of a person's life.  He feels fortunate that for 23 years he was able to learn directly from Sydney Banks.  In 2008 Dicken received a Certificate of Competency from Mr. Banks authorizing him to teach the Three Principles.Dicken co-founded and was the director of a center in Vermont that was the first center in the Northeast to teach the Three Principles.  He served as one of the original nation-wide Core Three Principles Faculty and is currently a faculty member for the Three Principles Global Community.  In 1996 Dicken joined Pransky and Associates, a Three Principle-based institute in La Conner, Washington.  Dicken was instrumental in developing and teaching leadership and staff development programs for universities, hospitals, publishing companies, defense contractors, health departments, banks, and non-profit organizations. He taught company employees what it takes to be resilient and agile in the face of today's business challenges and rapidly changing environments.  He mentored CEOs and their leadership teams in raising the bar on their productivity, teamwork, and business success.  He now specializes in developing 3 Principle practitioners, as well as leading group seminars on the Principles and their relationship to spiritual/psychological well-being.In January of 2012 Dicken founded Three Principles Mentoring to deepen peoples' understanding of the 3 principles, develop 3P practitioners globally, and offer seminars in countries throughout the world. Dicken wrote a book with Natasha Swerdloff, Coming Home: Uncovering the Foundations of Psychological Well-being​ which is now available in 10 languages.Dicken also deeply values his work as a director on the board of the Three Principles Glogal Community. This organization was formed to spread the teachings of Sydney Banks around the world.  Dicken enjoys public service work and has worked with refugees from South and Central America. He was an integral part of the Tibetan Resettlement Project in Vermont. Dicken has been happily married for 55 years and loves teaching 3P Practitioners and running seminars worldwide on spiritual/psychological well-being. He has two adult children, Nina and Ben, and adores spending time with his four grandchildren.  He enjoys photography, hiking, canoeing,  traveling, and his dog, Oliver.

BARB KIRKMEYER JOINS TO TALK THE COMPETENCY BILL We've had some pretty high profile cases lately of people being released from jail after committing crimes because they were deemed not able to stand trial. They are still dangerous, but they are out in the community. Why? A bill passed in 2024 seems to be the reason. It was HB24-1034 and you can read it here. The bill passed in bipartisan manner and now it's created a mess. We'll chat with Senator Barb Kirkmeyer about it today at 1.

In this episode, I'm breaking down why safety before strategy is non-negotiable if you want to sign clients and actually transform lives.Even the “tightest” tactic won't land if your nervous system is dysregulated. If you're in fight, flight, freeze, or appease, you'll either overthink, shut down, people-please, or argue with your clients, and then call it a “strategy problem.” It's not. It's a safety problem.Inside The Doctor Coach School™, we treat safety as a professional competency, not a soft skill. You'll learn to regulate yourself first so you can sell with integrity, coach with presence, and lead clients into real results.In this episode, I cover:Why strategy fails when you're dysregulated, even if you “do everything right”The four dysregulation patterns (fight, flight, freeze, appease) and how they show up in coaching and salesWhat I mean by “embodied” transformation (no fluff, walk it out in real life)How client results mirror the coach's internal safetyWhere the Safety Formula™ lives inside the DCS curriculum (and why you'll use it in self-coaching, sales calls, and client sessions)Apply or Learn MoreApply: thedoctorcoachschool.com/apply-nowQuestions: support@thedoctorcoachschool.comAdmissions line: 1-844-4-DCS-HLP (1-844-432-7457) Let's Connect: On Instagram On Facebook On LinkedIn On TikTok On my website

Sedation emergencies may be rare, but when they happen, the consequences can be catastrophic. In this episode, anesthesiologist Dr. Richard Marn shares a practical framework to help oral surgeons prepare for high-stress, low-frequency events that can jeopardize patient safety and derail a practice. Drawing on his work with multiple oral surgeons and his extensive simulation training experience, Dr. Marn walks through four key pillars of readiness: Infrastructure, Competency, Culture, and Habit. He offers real-world strategies for building team alignment, from five-minute huddles and tabletop drills to equipment checks and fostering psychological safety. Along the way, he underscores how leadership and communication can transform a group of individuals into a high-performing team. This episode is a must-listen for anyone looking to embed a culture of calm, confident emergency response.Key Points From This Episode:Dr. Richard Marn's journey from surgery intern to pediatric anesthesiologist.The importance of stress testing your staff for an emergency event.Four pillars of emergency readiness: Infrastructure, Competency, Culture, and Habit.The definition of Halo events (High Acuity Low Occurrence) and their potentially devastating impact.Why preparation is critical to protect your practice during Halo events.How Dr. Marn conducts five-minute emergency drills to build team alignment.Sedation as a high-risk activity and how to prepare for it.Why soft skills and teamwork are as important as CPR or airway management.Simulation training: how they reveal common gaps in emergency preparedness.Little details that matter, like knowing how to turn on an oxygen tank.The importance of regular huddles: to build habits and uncover weak spots before an emergency hits.How to make sure your emergency equipment is in working order: assign liaisons to keep emergency kits, meds, and devices ready for use.What you can do to help your team practice emergency skills during real-life, low-stakes cases.How culture and psychological safety can affect a team's emergency response.Why culture shifts start with leadership and clear communication of expectations.How to access a free online assessment to evaluate team readiness.Links Mentioned in Today's Episode:Dr. Richard Marn — https://www.drrichardmarn.com/ Dr. Richard Marn on LinkedIn — https://www.linkedin.com/in/richardmarn/ Online Sedation Risk Assessment — https://emergency.scoreapp.comCenter for Medical Simulation — https://harvardmedsim.org/ Online Sedation Risk Assessment — https://emergency.scoreapp.com Blue Pacific Medical Simulation — https://bpmedsim.com/ New York Medical Anesthesia — https://nymedicalanesthesia.com/Everyday Oral Surgery Website — https://www.everydayoralsurgery.com/ Everyday Oral Surgery on Instagram — https://www.instagram.com/everydayoralsurgery/ Everyday Oral Surgery on Facebook — https://www.facebook.com/EverydayOralSurgery/Dr. Grant Stucki Email — grantstucki@gmail.comDr. Grant Stucki Phone — 720-441-6059

Welcome back to another installment of our DCS Open House series! Twice a week, I go live to give you an inside look at The Doctor Coach School™ Certification and what makes this program so different from every other certification out there.In today's episode, I'm breaking down why signing clients isn't extra credit—it's the core competency of coaching. If you can't sign clients, you don't have a business, you have a hobby. That's the truth I had to learn early in my own journey, and it's why DCS is built differently.Inside this episode, I walk you through:Why sales and marketing aren't afterthoughts—they're belief-shifting tools.How the Pocket of Belief™ framework works (and why it's essential for client results).Why transformation starts before the first coaching call.How DCS prepares you to not only sign clients but also walk them all the way through transformation.This is exactly why our certification requires you to sign a client and coach them through real transformation before you graduate. Because belief-shifting is the heartbeat of coaching—and it begins in the enrollment conversation.✨ Applications are now open for The Doctor Coach School™ Certification. The next cohort begins in November, and doors close on October 12th. Only 20 seats are available.

Research tells us that the average stay of a pastor at a local church in America is less than four years. Considering that it takes at least six months for the pastor to even begin to learn the existing DNA of a church, we can conclude that the actual leadership work of that pastor only lasts about three years before the pastor quits or is asked to resign. This is a sad commentary on church leadership in America. One of the reasons for statistics like this is that the Church has abandoned God's blueprints for how local churches should be led and care for. One individual is never God's design to lead a spiritual family. In this message we explore the design of a plurality of elders as God's strategy to care for, teach, lead, and protect a Christian congregation. When the Church embraces God's plan, spiritual and relational health can thrive.

In this podcast, Dr. Laura Klenke-Borgmann describes their reverse-engineered roadmap, using the SimZone system, to develop a competency based education simulation curriculum that culminated with an individual objective structured clinical examination (OSCE). OSCEs also were used to provide deliberate skill practice and small group simulation practice, leading to a summative OSCE. This approach (described further in their article) is a model for other nursing programs to implement competency-based curricula through leveled simulations and iterative learning.

When someone becomes a victim of a crime, a long and often overwhelming process towards justice begins. It can be extremely difficult and taxing for anyone but when people with disabilities, especially those with intellectual/developmental disabilities (IDD), enter this process, barriers and systemic failures might mean that they never get to see the justice they deserve. This documentary exposes these failures through the lens of advocacy and victim support providers.

Jake Haro Case: Castration, Competency Tests & Child Safety: Should Society Go Further? What does it mean to have the capacity to parent? In this gripping segment, Tony Brueski and psychotherapist Shavaun Scott wrestle with the uncomfortable truth: not everyone can or should be raising children. The Haro case sparks a brutally honest conversation about America's obsession with “positive thinking” — the idea that anyone can change if they just try. But when it comes to protecting kids, blind faith is a death sentence. Jake Haro attended parenting classes, checked the required boxes, and was rated “low risk.” Weeks later, his baby was dead. Tony and Shavaun explore the difference between positive thinking and magical thinking, questioning why courts continue to assume abusers can be rehabilitated with a weekend class or compliance checklist. The discussion veers into dystopian territory — competency tests for reproduction, mandatory castration for repeat abusers — but the underlying point is serious: we are giving violent, unfit parents chance after chance, while children pay the price. This segment is provocative, raw, and absolutely necessary. It challenges viewers to confront uncomfortable questions about parental rights, societal responsibility, and whether protecting children should come before protecting the freedom of abusers.

Tony and Shavaun explore the difference between positive thinking and magical thinking, questioning why courts continue to assume abusers can be rehabilitated with a weekend class or compliance checklist. The discussion veers into dystopian territory — competency tests for reproduction, mandatory castration for repeat abusers — but the underlying point is serious: we are giving violent, unfit parents chance after chance, while children pay the price. This segment is provocative, raw, and absolutely necessary. It challenges viewers to confront uncomfortable questions about parental rights, societal responsibility, and whether protecting children should come before protecting the freedom of abusers.

Send us a textIn this powerful conversation, Hannah Elmore, Senior Clinical Outreach Coordinator for the IAFF Center of Excellence, reveals the critical role of culturally competent care in supporting firefighter mental health. Drawing from her extensive background in clinical social work and deep immersion in fire service culture, Hannah illuminates the often-overlooked nuances of how mental health challenges uniquely manifest in first responders.The discussion takes us behind the curtain of the IAFF Center of Excellence, a specialized treatment facility created specifically for firefighters seeking help with behavioral health challenges. Unlike traditional hospital settings, this 15-acre facility offers various levels of care in an environment where firefighters can heal among peers who truly understand their experiences. Hannah paints a vivid picture of the Center's approach, from clinical programming to the nightly gatherings around the fire pit—a space intentionally kept free from clinical staff where some of the deepest healing occurs.Perhaps most compelling is the honest examination of barriers that prevent firefighters from seeking help. Hannah addresses head-on the fears about confidentiality and career impact that keep many suffering in silence. "If you're sweeping things under the rug," she cautions, "eventually the rug is going to get a really big mountain that you're going to trip over." This metaphor perfectly captures the cumulative weight of unaddressed trauma and stress.Steve and Hannah also discuss the frustrating reality of therapists who lack the necessary understanding of first responder culture. They share stories of firefighters who've had negative experiences with providers who were overwhelmed by their trauma narratives or misinterpreted symptoms due to cultural ignorance. Their passion for connecting first responders with appropriate, vetted resources shines through as they emphasize their collaborative approach to resource sharing.Whether you're a firefighter struggling with your mental health, a peer support member looking to better assist your colleagues, or a clinician wanting to better serve the first responder community, this episode offers invaluable insights into creating pathways to healing.

We previously released this episode on December 18, 2024. We're excited to revisit some key ideas before we dive into fresh, exciting topics soon. In this episode, Ethan Nash introduces the Challenge-Competency Continuum, a framework for understanding how stress impacts employee productivity. Picture an upside-down “U” with productivity on the y-axis and stress on the x-axis. Too little stress leaves employees unmotivated; too much stress overwhelms them. Peak productivity? It's right in the middle. The key to finding that balance, Nash says, ask your employees. Ethan dives into how understanding where someone lands on the continuum—how “challenged” and “competent” they feel—can help managers make smarter decisions. With the right insights, leaders can fine-tune workloads, reduce unnecessary stress, and unlock their team's full potential.

What does it really mean to grow as a disciple of Jesus and are we starting in the right place? In this episode, Chris, Jacob, and Jessie Cruickshank unpack the “Five Cs” of discipleship: Christ, Community, Character, Calling, and Competency. Together, they explore why starting with a skills assessment or plugging people into ministry roles based on talent can short-circuit the deeper work of identity formation in Christ.Jessie draws from neuroscience, her experience training church leaders, and even jellyfish biology (yes, really!) to help us reimagine discipleship as a relational, community-driven journey of becoming. Character is shaped in community, calling is discerned in relationship, and competency should be the last step, not the first.ORDER Jessie's newest book, Ordinary Discipleship: How God Wires Us for the Adventure of Transformation → https://a.co/d/51j86DGFor more great stuff, check out: Ordinary Discipleship by Whoology: https://whoology.coFollow us on social media:https://instagram.com/ordinarydiscipleshiphttps://facebook.com/ordinarydiscipleshipFollow Jessie on social media:Instagram: https://instagram.com/yourbrainbyjessFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/jessica.s.cruickshank/Twitter: https://twitter.com/yourbrainbyjessJessie Cruickshank is a disciple-maker, wilderness guide, and ordained minister.

With technical education under pressure to deliver skilled talent faster, Lakeshore College is flipping the model—measuring learning by competency, meeting students where they are (even in high school), and using grants + national advocacy to scale the impact.In this episode of The TechEd Podcast, host Matt Kirchner talks with Dr. Paul Carlsen, President of Lakeshore College, about the different methods to rapidly upskill a technical workforce. Like Lakeshore's competency-based education (CBE) approach, which has now been adopted by half the college's programs and earned national attention and a White House conversation on scaling CBE.In addition to CBE, we discuss Rocket Academy's early manufacturing pathway for high school students, why industry certifications (SACA) matter (because employers say they matter), and how the college has leveraged $32M+ in competitive grants to fund innovation. Carlsen also explains his work on the AACC Board—including the coming impact of Workforce Pell on short-term training.Listen to learn:Why competency-based education is reshaping how we recognize skillsHow high schoolers are earning real college credentials before graduationWhat makes an industry certification valuable—according to employersThe mindset shift that helped Lakeshore win $32M+ in competitive grantsHow new federal policies could redefine workforce training programs3 Big Takeaways from this Episode:1. Competency-based education measures student success by skill mastery, not seat time. Lakeshore's shift to CBE began with an employer who couldn't wait 16 weeks for students to complete a course. Today, students demonstrate mastery through real-world assessments, faculty build flexible learning pathways, and program delivery adapts to the individual needs of working adults, veterans, and learners balancing multiple responsibilities.2. Through innovative partnerships, high school students are graduating with a college degree and workforce-ready credentials. Rocket Academy gives high school students access to a full integrated manufacturing pathway, often leading to a technical diploma before they even receive their high school diploma. The curriculum is designed to fit directly into the school day, removing scheduling barriers and building true college transcripts—not just college “experience.”3. Grant funding follows big ideas and execution capacity. Lakeshore has secured over $32 million in competitive grants, including major awards from the National Science Foundation. Success comes from proposing bold, high-impact projects with measurable outcomes, and from having the internal systems and cross-functional teams in place to deliver those outcomes on time and at scale.Resources in this Episode:To learn more about Lakeshore College, visit: lakeshore.eduConnect with Paul Carlsen on LinkedInOther resources:Rocket AcademyWhat is competency-based education (We want to hear from you!

I'll never forget Bruce's story about his car—check engine light on, a mechanic insisted it needed a $1,500 catalytic converter. Bruce knew better and fixed it by simply tightening the gas cap. That story isn't just about auto repair; it perfectly illustrates why questions a good financial advisor should ask matter. Without probing, you might be sold something you don't need. Competency—not just good intentions—matters. https://www.youtube.com/live/oyEbgdU1MGI It's not about distrust—it's about asking the right questions so you're not blindly following advice. And that principle applies fully when choosing a financial advisor, especially when your spouse might need to take over the reins someday. Why “Questions a Good Financial Advisor Should Ask” Are Essential1. The Big Picture: Comprehensive Financial Planning2. Spouse Financial Preparedness: Including Both of You3. Risk and Protection: Insurance, Deductibles, and Peace of Mind4. Tax Strategy and Social Security Planning5. Legacy Planning: Aligning Values and Wealth Transfer6. Financial Alignment Between SpousesWhy You Need These QuestionsReady to Empower Yourself With Questions a Good Financial Advisor Should Ask?Book A Strategy Call Why “Questions a Good Financial Advisor Should Ask” Are Essential Bruce makes a powerful point: finance isn't limited to investment products. Just like a mechanic or doctor examines the whole system, a skilled advisor should ask questions that uncover your entire financial ecosystem. Without comprehensive inquiry, blind spots linger—insurance gaps, overlooked risks, or hidden fees can derail your legacy. Are you unknowingly trusting a financial advisor without knowing enough about your overall financial picture? In today's complex financial world—from taxes and Social Security to estate planning, insurance, and cash flow—a narrow focus on one product is risky.Questions a good financial advisor should ask aren't optional—they're essential. They give you clarity, align planning with your goals, and ensure your spouse is equipped to manage your shared financial future. 1. The Big Picture: Comprehensive Financial Planning Bruce sums it up: “You cannot make financial decisions in a vacuum.” Advisors who focus only on investments or insurance miss how those decisions affect cash flow, taxes, estate planning, and more. Ask: What are your current net worth and cash flow statements? How do your investments, insurance, and debts interrelate? Why it matters:Like a doctor who reviews your medical history before prescribing treatment, a competent advisor will want to see your full financial picture before making recommendations. 2. Spouse Financial Preparedness: Including Both of You Too often, one spouse is left out of discussions and can feel lost if the other dies.Key questions include: Who are your trusted advisors (financial, legal, tax)? Does your spouse know how to access online accounts, passwords, and digital assets? What's your “Alternative Income Plan” for the surviving spouse? How comfortable is your spouse with the household financial framework? Bruce and Rachel discuss this as part of the LIFE framework: Liquid assets—money accessible within 15 minutes Income plan—monthly income goals Flexible investments—capital that can be reallocated Estate plan—how wealth transfers to future generations Both spouses should discuss and agree on how these pieces look today and tomorrow. 3. Risk and Protection: Insurance, Deductibles, and Peace of Mind Bruce shared his own experience with PNC: they asked about deductible choices and emotional tolerance for risk during the house fire recovery process.Essential questions a good financial advisor should ask include: What insurance do you have—life, disability, health, auto, home? Are deductibles appropriate to your cash reserves and risk tolerance? Are beneficiary designations updated and aligned with estate go...

In this captivating episode of Shark Theory, host Baylor Barbee shares a delightful anecdote from his recent visit to Ham Orchard in Terrell, Texas—a renowned peach orchard famous for its vast variety and unique peach-inspired products. Using this experience as a metaphor, Baylor delves into the importance of mastering a core competency before expanding into various derivatives, drawing parallels with his journey in public speaking. The episode emphasizes how businesses and individuals can thrive by focusing on their strengths and fostering a peaceful and welcoming environment. Ham Orchard, a family-operated business since 1979, exemplifies the power of specialization and community atmosphere. Throughout the episode, Baylor details his surprise and admiration for the orchard's extensive selection of peach products, demonstrating how honing one core skill can lead to success in multiple areas. The discussion is rich with insights on personal growth, illustrating the significance of finding peace and projecting positive energy in personal and professional interactions. This theme serves as a central pillar for the episode, encouraging listeners to cultivate a sense of calm to enhance their magnetism and appeal. Key Takeaways: Mastering one core skill allows you to expand successfully into related areas. Creating a peaceful environment can attract and retain people both personally and professionally. Your presence and energy can have a significant impact on your success. Businesses that remain true to their values, like Ham Orchard's practice of closing on Sundays, can foster a positive community atmosphere. Seasons change in life and business; patience and persistence are key. Notable Quotes: "If you're great at something, you can always expand on it." "Success and growth come with mastering one element." "Being a Peace creator is arguably the most magnetic skill that you can have." "If you're the person that brings peace to a situation, people will want to be around you." "There's always seasons in life and if you're in a down season right now, just realize your season is coming."
