    Confira no Morning Show desta sexta-feira (31): Após a megaoperação no Rio de Janeiro que deixou 121 mortos, sete governadores anunciaram a criação do “Consórcio da Paz”, uma aliança para combater o crime organizado e trocar informações de inteligência entre os estados. A reunião ocorreu no Palácio Guanabara, com presença de Cláudio Castro (PL-RJ), Romeu Zema (Novo-MG), Jorginho Mello (PL-SC), Ronaldo Caiado (União Brasil-GO), Eduardo Riedel (Progressistas-MS), Celina Leão (Progressistas-DF) e participação remota de Tarcísio de Freitas (Republicanos-SP). O Rio de Janeiro será sede inicial do grupo e coordenará o processo de formalização. Reportagem: Rodrigo Viga. O coronel Fernando Príncipe analisou os impactos da ADPF 635, conhecida como “ADPF das Favelas”, após a megaoperação no Rio de Janeiro. Segundo ele, a decisão do STF cria restrições que acabam fortalecendo as facções criminosas, limitando a atuação das forças de segurança nas comunidades. A Polícia Civil desarticulou um verdadeiro “coworking do crime” no Guarujá, litoral de São Paulo. Quatro pessoas foram presas em uma mansão usada por quadrilhas de estelionatários que se passavam por advogados para aplicar golpes milionários. Segundo o Deic, os criminosos acessavam processos judiciais com senhas oficiais e enganavam vítimas com pedidos falsos de pagamentos. A operação também teve desdobramentos na capital, onde mais suspeitos foram presos. Celulares, veículos e equipamentos eletrônicos foram apreendidos. A investigação continua para identificar outros envolvidos no esquema. Reportagem: Danúbia Braga. O Ministério Público de São Paulo investiga como duas camisas da Seleção Brasileira autografadas por Neymar Jr. foram parar na casa de um dos alvos de uma operação contra o esquema de lavagem de dinheiro do PCC. As peças estavam dedicadas a “Filha”, apelido do foragido Sérgio Luiz de Freitas Filho, conhecido como Mijão, um dos principais chefes da facção ainda em liberdade. Segundo o MP, as camisas podem ajudar a rastrear a presença do criminoso no Brasil, já que há indícios de que ele teria voltado da Bolívia. A assessoria de Neymar afirmou que o jogador desconhece o caso e as pessoas envolvidas. O Gaeco avalia se o atleta poderá ser ouvido apenas para esclarecer, se possível, se houve de fato esse encontro. Essas e outras notícias você confere no Morning Show.

    No podcast ‘Notícia No Seu Tempo’, confira em áudio as principais notícias da edição impressa do jornal ‘O Estado de S.Paulo’ desta sexta-feira (31/10/2025): Projetos relacionados à segurança pública estacionados há meses no Congresso estão sendo retomados e uma CPI do Crime Organizado será instalada. A PEC da Segurança Pública volta a ser discutida pelos parlamentares. Governadores de oposição, reunidos no Rio, anunciaram a criação de um “Consórcio da Paz” para que Estados se ajudem no enfrentamento à criminalidade. O presidente Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva sancionou a lei que endurece o combate ao crime e amplia a proteção de autoridades envolvidas nessa área. Governo e oposição tentam calibrar a narrativa na semana em que operação policial contra o Comando Vermelho, no Rio, deixou 121 mortos. O episódio acentuou a polarização política no País e antecipa um tema que deve ser central na campanha de 2026.

    Les mises à l'écart des opposants, menaces potentielles pour les hommes ou les partis au pouvoir, sont devenues monnaie courante sur le continent… Qu'elles soient le fait du prince ou qu'elles engagent le vernis de la légalité, ces mises à l'écart interrogent sur la bonne santé de la démocratie en Afrique. Dernier exemple en date, le Bénin : « Renaud Agbodjo, comme un feu de paille ! », s'exclame le site béninois Afrique sur 7. « À peine apparu, l'opposant s'efface sans traces de la scène politique. Ce retrait illustre la désillusion que révèle la confrontation avec la rigidité d'un système politique bien ficelé ». En effet, tout est allé très vite : il y a 15 jours, Renaud Agbodjo, avocat de 43 ans, est désigné par son parti comme candidat à l'élection présidentielle d'avril prochain ; mercredi dernier, la Commission électorale invalide sa candidature, faute d'un nombre de parrainages suffisant ; son parti, Les Démocrates, saisit alors la Cour constitutionnelle ; lundi, celle-ci se déclare incompétente et valide la liste provisoire des candidats ; et hier mercredi, l'opposant annonce qu'il jette l'éponge, qu'il arrête la course à la présidence. Divisions « Bis repetita pour Les Démocrates, constate Jeune Afrique. Comme en 2021, la principale formation d'opposition au Bénin ne sera pas sur la ligne de départ pour la présidentielle d'avril 2026. Cette décision douche définitivement les espoirs présidentiels des Démocrates, parti dirigé depuis 2023 par l'ancien chef de l'État, Thomas Boni Yayi. Elle a également rencontré fin au feuilleton politico-judiciaire entamé le 14 octobre, avec la désignation de Renaud Agbodjo ». Un feuilleton qui met en lumière les divisions au sein des Démocrates. En effet, précise Jeune Afrique, « le fait que le choix se soit porté sur Renaud Agbodjo, l'avocat personnel de l'ex-président, à l'issue d'une primaire, au détriment d'Éric Houndété qui faisait figure de favori, avait très vite été contesté par Michel Sodjinou, député de la ville de Porto-Novo. Ce dernier avait alors refusé de parrainer le candidat officiel ». Et comme pour être qualifié, il fallait 28 parrainages d'élus et que Les Démocrates en comptent exactement 28, cette défection leur a été fatale… Un «  plan de déstabilisation et de débauchage  » ? L'ancien président Thomas Boni Yayi, à la tête des Démocrates, a donc bien tenté de convaincre le président Talon de faire participer son parti aux élections générales de l'année prochaine, incluant les législatives, les communales et la présidentielle. Peine perdue… C'est ce que souligne La Nouvelle Tribune à Cotonou. « Boni Yayi a déclaré percevoir (chez son interlocuteur) une tendance à la concentration du pouvoir, pointe le journal. Il a évoqué l'existence d'un "plan de déstabilisation et de débauchage" visant certains responsables du parti Les Démocrates, par le biais de pressions et, à l'en croire, de promesses d'avantages matériels ». Conséquence, pointe Le Monde Afrique, en l'absence du principal parti d'opposition, « une voie royale s'ouvre donc pour la majorité au pouvoir, représentée par le ministre des Finances, Romuald Wadagni. Patrice Talon, président depuis 2016, arrivant au terme de son deuxième mandat, le maximum autorisé par la Constitution ». Un jeu de verrouillage électoral « Pour un pays, le Bénin qui, depuis la Conférence nationale de 1990, s'enorgueillit d'un pluralisme politique exemplaire, la situation s'interroge profondément, soupire Afrik.com. Comment parler de démocratie lorsque le jeu électoral semble verrouillé au point d'exclure des forces politiques d'envergure ? (…) Le Bénin d'aujourd'hui donne le sentiment d'un pluralisme sous tutelle, déplore encore le site panafricain. Les voix dissidentes, souvent muselées, peinent à trouver un espace d'expression libre. Les manifestations sont encadrées, les dirigeants politiques critiques font face aux poursuites judiciaires, et les médias indépendants doivent composer avec un environnement de plus en plus hostile. Tout cela contribue à instaurer un climat de peur et de résignation, incompatible avec la vitalité démocratique qui avait jadis fait la fierté du pays ». Certes, pointe encore Afrik.com, « les défenseurs du pouvoir en place invoquent souvent l'argument de la légalité : "les règles sont les mêmes pour tous". Mais la démocratie ne se réduit pas à une stricte conformité juridique, affirme le site. Elle repose avant tout sur l'esprit du jeu démocratique, sur la compétition équitable, sur la possibilité pour chaque sensibilité politique de se faire entendre et de se mesurer aux urnes ».

    In this episode, I'm breaking down the truth about play café and indoor playground franchising — and why this model has failed to deliver lasting success for most owners, outside of what you may see on social media.I've worked with countless franchisees who believed joining an established concept would simplify their startup journey, only to discover overwhelming fees, lack of flexibility, and corporate systems that didn't fit their local markets. In this episode, I share real examples of owners who struggled under these agreements and explain the key red flags to watch for if you're researching a franchise opportunity (and we get VERY specific!).You'll learn: • Why big national brands like The Little Gym or Goldfish Swim School can make franchising work — and why smaller ones rarely can. • The financial math behind royalties, marketing fees, and hidden costs. • Common build-out and permitting pitfalls new franchisees face. • The importance of local flexibility in pricing, programs, and menu offerings. • How to read the Franchise Disclosure Document (FDD) and spot deal-breaking clauses. • Smarter alternatives to franchising for aspiring owners who still want systems and support.If you've been tempted by the promise of “done-for-you” business ownership, this episode will help you make a truly informed decision before signing anything.Blog for this episodeOld Pros and Cons of Franchising Article MentionedWhat's Working Guide for 2025-2026OTHER RESOURCES:Play Cafe Academy & Play Makers SocietyGetting Started With Your Play Cafe [YouTube Video Playlist]What's Working In The Indoor Play Industry 2025 GuideFund Your Indoor Play Business [Free Training]Indoor Play Courses & 1:1 Consulting WaitlistMichele's InstagramMichele's WebsitePlay Cafe Academy YouTube ChannelETSY Template ShopPrepare Your Indoor Playground For a RecessionPlay Cafe Academy & Play Makers SocietyQuestions and Support: Support@michelecaruana.com Play Cafe Academy & Play Makers Society: http://bit.ly/3HES7fDQuestions and Support: Support@michelecaruana.com Simplify and Scale with 50% OFF WellnessLiving: https://discover.wellnessliving.com/playcafeacademyActive Campaign Free Trial: https://www.activecampaign.com/?_r=D6IYK3HG

She shares two fentanyl overdoses, the mindset shift that ended heroin, and the unglamorous habits that keep her steady.

    227: What's the Best Way to Source Products for Your Subscription Box?

    Launch Your Box Podcast with Sarah Williams | Start, Launch, and Grow Your Subscription Box

    Play Episode Listen Later Oct 24, 2025 15:33


    One of the biggest questions subscription box owners ask is: Where do I find products for my box? There's no single “right” answer because the best sourcing strategy depends on where you are in your business journey.  In this quick Friday Fuel episode of The Launch Your Box Podcast, I'm breaking down three key sourcing methods - wholesale, trade shows, and manufacturing - and showing you how each one fits a different stage of subscription box growth. Stage 1: Just Getting Started. Start with Wholesale If you're still prepping for launch or working toward your first 50–100 subscribers, wholesale is your best friend. It's flexible, affordable, and helps you learn what your audience loves without over-committing. Why it works: Low minimums let you order small quantities. Fast turnaround means you can ship quickly. It's the easiest way to test different product types. Challenges with wholesale: Smaller profit margins. Less exclusivity. Limited branding options Stage 2: You've Launched. Trade Shows & Curated Finds Once you've launched and built momentum, it's time to elevate your box. Trade shows and curated wholesale marketplaces help you discover unique, small-batch, and boutique items that give your box that “wow” factor. Why it works: You'll find more distinctive products. Meeting vendors face-to-face often leads to better pricing or exclusivity. You can start building your signature brand style. Challenges with trade shows and curated marketplaces: Travel costs and larger order requirements. Longer lead times mean planning boxes further ahead. Stage 3: Ready to Scale. Manufacturing When your subscription is stable and you're ready to increase margins or stand out even more, manufacturing can be a game-changer. But there are two levels to consider: Option 1: Stock Product from Manufacturers Buy from manufacturer catalogs and add your own branding or packaging. This is a great bridge between wholesale and full custom. Pros: better margins, faster turnaround, and the ability to add your own brand touches. Cons: limited product selection and minimal exclusivity. Option 2: Full Custom Manufacturing Design your own products from scratch for total control and differentiation. Pros: complete customization, higher perceived value, stronger brand identity. Cons: higher minimums, longer timelines, and bigger upfront costs. Sourcing Is a Journey, Not a Jump You'll probably use all of these sourcing methods at some point: Start with wholesale. Grow into trade shows. Add manufacturer stock for better margins. Move to custom products when you're ready. Take Action Identify your current sourcing stage and make one move this week that aligns with it: New? Order your first wholesale products. Growing? Research an upcoming trade show or apply for a wholesale marketplace account. Scaling? Reach out to a manufacturer and ask about their minimums. Every step forward brings you closer to the box and the brand you're meant to build. Join me for this episode, where I'll help you figure out which sourcing strategy fits your stage of business and how to take the next step with confidence.

    Are you tired of hearing about “gentle parenting” — but still want to raise kind, confident, and emotionally intelligent kids?In this powerful episode, Greg and Rachel Denning unpack The Truth About Gentle Parenting — what works, what backfires, and what extraordinary parents are using instead.They reveal how gentle parenting often gets misapplied as permissive parenting, leaving parents exhausted, burned out, and unsure how to hold boundaries without becoming authoritarian. The Dennings share a better, more effective approach — one that blends empathy and structure, kindness and firmness, compassion and clarity.They explain how to develop your parenting intuition, create emotional safety without losing authority, and respond to misbehavior without yelling, punishing, or shaming. You'll learn how to raise respectful, resilient kids while staying calm, confident, and connected — even in the toughest parenting moments.Key Takeaways✅ True “gentle” parenting means connection with boundaries, not permissiveness.✅ Kids feel safest when parents are both kind and firm.✅ Respect doesn't mean letting your child lead — it means guiding with love and clarity.✅ Emotional awareness + structure = long-term cooperation and trust.✅ You can't pour from an empty cup — process your own triggers to parent authentically.Chapters00:00 Introduction to Extraordinary Parenting12:20 The Nuances of Gentle Parenting30:41 Pros and Cons of Gentle Parenting41:02 Navigating Disappointment in Parenting47:01 The Importance of Setting Expectations50:10 Balancing Empathy and Boundaries56:13 Authenticity in Parenting01:04:20 The Shift Towards Hybrid Parenting01:17:55 The Path to Effective ParentingMemorable Quotes
