Welcome to the Selling From The Heart podcast with Darrell Amy and Larry Levine as they feature Jim Packard and George Campbell, the co-authors of The Consistency Chain. How people make decisions can be drastically different from one person to the next.Only 20% of people make decisions using their prefrontal cortex, the executive function part of the brain, while the rest of the 80% use their primal ventral striatum which makes decisions based on whether it is easy, safe, and pleasurable.The trick is to lean into this. Do things today to create a relentlessly consistent string of wins every single day. The only rule is to not break the chain and, to help this, all you have to do is look at your daily progress. The satisfaction of knowing you are consistent is the reward itself!HIGHLIGHT QUOTESA vast majority of people make decisions based only on 3 factors - George: "80% of us, people like me, tend to make decisions in the ventral striatum which is a much more primal part of the brain that makes decisions based on is it easy, is it safe, is it pleasurable. This is where consistency goes to die because consistency is none of those 3 things."Do NOT break your consistency chain - George: "Every single day, we're putting another link on and the goal is so simple: just don't break the chain. I can take all of the stuff that I want to do and I can boil it down into this one action, and then when I put that mark on the calendar that day, that's my satisfaction."Connect with Jim and George and get their book:George Campbell | Jim PackardWebsite | AmazonLearn more about Darrell and Larry: Darrell | Larry | WebsiteGot a video about how you sell from the heart?

This is Garrison Hardie with your CrossPolitic Daily News Brief for Friday, May 12th, 2023. Concordis Education Partners: Classical Christian education has reminded us to aim education at truth, but the trivium has been used as a formula rather than a way of training students in discernment. To teach well, you must coach. Concordis Foundation is offering their third annual BOOT CAMP – a faculty summit – July 11-13th in Moscow, Idaho. This is a three-day intensive teaching training where you learn to coach students, using the trivium, so that you can meet students at all learning levels.

The memo says that migrants can be allowed into the country on parole — a process typically reserved for "urgent humanitarian reasons or significant public benefit" — if Customs and Border Protection (CBP) faces overcrowding. The memo calls the practice "parole with conditions" as migrants are required to make an appointment with Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) or request a Notice to Appear by mail. Under a parole release, migrants are rapidly released into the country, do not get an alien registration number and do not receive a court date. The use of parole is being authorized if a sector capacity goes above 125%, if agents apprehend 7,000 a day over 72 hours or if average time in custody goes above 60 hours. Agents have been encountering over 10,000 migrants a day since Monday, and there are no signs of that slowing down with the looming end of Title 42, which is expected to bring an even bigger wave with it. The memo noted the enormous numbers agents are encountering. "For the past 7 days, USBP has averaged over 8,750 encounters per day. This is over double the average daily encounters of 4,284 in May of 2019, the highest month of the 2019 surge. Even with significant personnel along the SWB, a significant detention capacity, and interagency resources supporting the effort, this situation requires urgent action," the memo states. The public health order has been used since March 2020 to expel over two million migrants due to the COVID-19 pandemic. The Biden administration has told migrants that it will not be easier to enter the U.S. once the order drops as there will be stiffer penalties until Title 8. Parole is not a Title 8 authority. The use of parole is legally questionable, with critics arguing it is not supposed to be used to wave in thousands of migrants. The state of Florida successfully sued the Biden administration in March to block a similar policy, "Parole + ATD." On Thursday, Fox Digital reported that Florida sued this week over the latest plan to release migrants into the U.S. interior, saying it is "materially identical" to the policy that the federal court enjoined. "Florida seeks a temporary restraining order to preserve the status quo until the parties can brief motions for a preliminary injunction or to postpone the effective date of the new policy," the lawsuit states. "The Biden Administration’s behavior, if left unchecked, makes a mockery of our system of justice and our Constitution." The judge has given the Biden administration a 4 p.m. deadline Thursday to respond to the request for a temporary restraining order, adding that it appears the administration is "preparing to flout" the court’s order. A Department of Homeland Security (DHS) spokesperson this week claimed that the releases are similar to those conducted by prior administrations. https://thepostmillennial.com/breaking-house-votes-yes-on-measure-to-secure-us-mexico-border?utm_campaign=64487 House votes YES on Secure Border Act in 219-213 vote, includes e-Verify requirement, with 2 Republicans joining Democrats to vote against border security On Thursday, House Representatives debated the Secure the Border Act of 2023 as Title 42 expired at the southern border, which lays out sweeping new requirements and restrictions for securing the southern border. The bill passed 219-213. Two Republicans, Reps. Thomas Massie and John Duarte voted along side all Democrat members against the bill. The bill was introduced to the House of Representatives on May 2 in anticipation of the flood of illegal immigrants expected in the wake of Title 42, which allowed expulsions due to the pandemic emergency. The bill calls for the "immediate resumption of border wall construction" no later than seven days after the bill is enacted, using previously set aside funds and materials for its construction. No later than 180 days after the bill is enacted, a report shall be submitted to congressional committees that outlines a strategic 5-year technology investment plan for border security, including potential upgrades in security technology, communications equipment, screening equipment, incorporating in input from the private sector. In an effort to retain Border Patrol personnel, the bill will authorize up to $100,000,000 in appropriated funds for the Commissioner of the US Customs and Border Protection to give to front-line agents who hold a position equal to or below level GS-12, has been with Border Patrol for five years or longer, and commits two additional years of service with Border Patrol upon acceptance of the bonus. The bill also requires that the Commissioner hire and train enough Border Patrol agents to maintain an active duty presence of no less than 22,000 full-time agents. The bill also includes a provision prohibiting the requirement to take a Covid-19 vaccine or adverse actions taken against a Department of Homeland Security employee. The Secretary of Homeland Security would be required to send a report no later than 60 days after the bill is enacted on whether Mexican drug cartels meet the criteria for being designated as a foreign terrorist organization. The bill amends the Immigration and Nationality Act, stating that those found not to be eligible for parole shall be deported from the country. The bill also increases penalties for illegal entry or presence in the country from $50-$250 up to $500-$1000. Illegal immigrants who overstay a visa are subject to imprisonment of no more than six months and/or a fine for the first offense, and a fine and/or no more than two years of imprisonment for subsequent offenses. The bill also mandates the use of e-Verify, a system used to check if a person is authorized to work in the United States. https://www.washingtonexaminer.com/policy/education/connecticut-wesleyan-pay-for-students-abortions Connecticut liberal arts college says it will pay for students to get abortions A liberal arts university in Connecticut says it will now cover the costs of any student who wishes to get an abortion or a Plan B contraceptive, regardless of their insurance status. Wesleyan University announced last week that, following a pressure campaign from the university's Young Democratic Socialists of America chapter, the school would now pay for any student to get an abortion or emergency contraceptives. The school has also committed to footing the bill for any transportation costs incurred by students seeking abortions. “Consistent with the health center’s mission to provide education and support in the decision-making process, students will be able to access emergency contraceptives by consulting with a nurse at Davison Health Center," the university told NBC Connecticut in a statement. The decision comes after the Young Democratic Socialists of America chapter at Wesleyan collected over 700 signatures on a petition that urged the school to "ensure all students are able to overcome financial burdens to and lack of transportation for abortion procedures." "This victory comes in the wake of landmark efforts by Barnard College students to secure abortion pills on campus as well as a broader movement for reproductive justice nationwide," the student organization said in a press release. "Wesleyan now plays a pioneering role in reproductive healthcare among private liberal arts colleges by committing to cover the entire cost of abortion after insurance for all students." After the Supreme Court issued a ruling that overturned Roe v. Wade last year, the availability of abortion for college students has gained increased attention, as numerous states with widely recognized state universities have banned abortion altogether. Students have increasingly reported that access to abortion has become a factor in their college decision-making process. Democratic-controlled states, meanwhile, have taken steps to make abortion as available to college students as a flu shot. The entire University of California and California State University systems are required by law to provide abortion pills to students at their respective university health centers, and last year, the University of Massachusetts Amherst announced it would be providing abortion pills on campus as well. https://www.foxnews.com/us/marine-veteran-charged-manhattan-da-jordan-neely-subway-chokehold-death Marine veteran to be charged by Manhattan DA in Jordan Neely subway chokehold death A New York City subway rider accused of choking a homeless man to death is expected to turn himself in to police on Friday morning to face a manslaughter charge. "We can confirm that Daniel Penny will be arrested on a charge of Manslaughter in the Second Degree," a spokesperson for the Manhattan District Attorney's Office said. "We cannot provide any additional information until he has been arraigned in Manhattan Criminal Court, which we expect to take place tomorrow." On May 1, Penny, a 24-year-old Marine veteran and college student, put 30-year-old Jordan Neely in a fatal chokehold after what police described as an altercation on a northbound F train. Neely was allegedly threatening passengers on the subway and having a mental episode. He was yelling and pacing back and forth, when Penny interjected, tackled him to the ground and put him in a chokehold, witnesses and police said. The incident sparked protests and violent clashes last week after the Marine veteran was taken into custody and released. And now for my favorite topic… sports! https://www.boundingintosports.com/2023/05/prosecutors-confirm-former-buffalo-bills-punter-matt-araiza-was-not-present-when-alleged-gang-rape-occurred/ Prosecutors Confirm Former Buffalo Bills Punter Matt Araiza Was Not Present When Alleged Gang Rape Occurred After having the criminal charges against him dropped, former Buffalo Bills punter Matt Araiza now has to undergo a stressful process of fighting the civil lawsuit against him for an alleged gang rape at a college party that occurred when Arazia and the plaintiff were attending San Diego State University at the same time. However, based on new information, that might be over soon, and potentially in Araiza’s favor. During a nearly year long investigation by San Diego police and detailed review by prosecutors, they have come to the conclusion that the alleged gang rape that the female plaintiff accused Araiza of being part of stands in question since evidence shows that Arazia, then a college student at the time when the plaintiff was 17-years-old, was not even present during the alleged crime. Yahoo Sports has obtained a 200-plus page transcript, covering a meeting in which a San Diego deputy district attorney broke the back of the case. According Yahoo Sports’ summary, “Araiza couldn’t have led the girl into the alleged gang rape because he had ‘left’ the home at about 12:30 a.m., an hour prior to when evidence suggested the alleged gang rape would have occurred.” Deputy district attorney Trisha Amador stated that “He wasn’t even at the party anymore. All I know is that at that point, suspect Araiza is gone from the party.” Prosecutors additionally told the plaintiff that the recordings that were made of the situation “made it impossible” to identify Araiza or any other potential suspects since their faces and voices aren’t clear enough to make a prosecution. Further, there are questions as to whether a rape occurred at all as the plaintiff claimed, and not a consensual sexual situation. “In looking at the videos on the sex tape, I absolutely cannot prove any forceable sexual assault based upon what happened,” said Deputy DA Amador. Because of this lawsuit, then-rookie Araiza was cut from the Bills team, crippling his rookie season so he could “take care of this situation,” according to Buffalo general manager Brandon Beane. But Araiza isn’t out of the woods yet, despite the prosecutors themselves admitting he wasn’t present at the event – civil suits have a much lower standard of proof than criminal cases do. As news broke of the developments in the civil suit, online figures in sports and media began to defend Arazia, including Daily Wire columnist Matt Walsh and Outkick.com founder Clay Travis. “False rape accusers should receive the same penalty that we give to rapists,” Walsh posted to Twitter. “Instead, in a vast majority of cases, they receive no penalty at all and are free to move on like nothing happened.” “The Bills released punter Matt Araiza for an allegation of sexual assault that police proved was 100% a lie,” tweeted Travis. “Why shouldn’t his accuser face criminal charges for lying? He’s lost a year of his career & his good name. She has zero consequences. Not right.” Thanks to all the legal trouble, Araiza is still a free agent. We’ve seen plenty of comebacks from legal trouble in the National Felon League. Araiza could be the next to move on to a respectable career.

On this week's episode I talk about "The Consistency Code" and the 5 traits of a consistent person. I was inspired to discuss this topic by my recent re-commitment to marathon training and the positive impact it has had on other areas of my life, such as parenting, emotional resilience, and business. By developing consistent habits and patterns, we can improve our reliability, discipline, perseverance, accountability, and organization. Consistency is essential to achieving our goals and making progress in all areas of our lives. It helps us to develop habits, routines, and patterns that keep us on track and moving forward towards our desired outcomes. When we are consistent, we build trust and reliability with ourselves and others. We demonstrate our commitment and dedication to our goals, and we develop a sense of discipline and self-control that helps us overcome obstacles and challenges. Consistency also helps us to stay accountable for our actions and to take responsibility for our mistakes. It allows us to learn from our failures and make adjustments as needed to continue making progress towards our desired outcomes. In contrast, when we lack consistency, we can struggle to achieve our goals and make progress towards success. We may feel overwhelmed, distracted, or unmotivated, which can lead to procrastination, inconsistency, and failure to follow through on our commitments. It's crucial to cultivate consistency in our lives, whether it's through daily habits, routines, or schedules.  PODCAST LISTENER OF THE WEEK: In addition to sharing the 5 traits of a consistent person, I am excited to announce the podcast listener of the week!

Offering repeat exposure on select items can maximize sales using cross-merchandising or multiple merchandising. Consistent signage throughout the space can effectively communicate with customers. Point out best sellers, locally made goods, quotes, etc. Maximize the POS area with store information and inventory to increase sales. Advertise return policy in a fun way, post upcoming events, merchandise grab-and-go goods Identify your ideal customers and merchandise the store accordingly. Have unscalable conversations to figure out pain points for customers Offering how-to-tips within your displays can engage customers and encourage them to spend more money.

Summary Every business has customers, and a critical element of success is understanding who they are and how they are using the companies products or services. The challenge is that most companies have a multitude of systems that contain fragments of the customer's interactions and stitching that together is complex and time consuming. Segment created the Unify product to reduce the burden of building a comprehensive view of customers and synchronizing it to all of the systems that need it. In this episode Kevin Niparko and Hanhan Wang share the details of how it is implemented and how you can use it to build and maintain rich customer profiles. Announcements Hello and welcome to the Data Engineering Podcast, the show about modern data management RudderStack helps you build a customer data platform on your warehouse or data lake. Instead of trapping data in a black box, they enable you to easily collect customer data from the entire stack and build an identity graph on your warehouse, giving you full visibility and control. Their SDKs make event streaming from any app or website easy, and their extensive library of integrations enable you to automatically send data to hundreds of downstream tools. Sign up free at dataengineeringpodcast.com/rudderstack (https://www.dataengineeringpodcast.com/rudderstack) Your host is Tobias Macey and today I'm interviewing Kevin Niparko and Hanhan Wang about Segment's new Unify product for building and syncing comprehensive customer profiles across your data systems Interview Introduction How did you get involved in the area of data management? Can you describe what Segment Unify is and the story behind it? What are the net-new capabilities that it brings to the Segment product suite?

What are the other Segment products that need to be in use to take advantage of Unify? What are some of the most complex edge cases to address in identity resolution? How does reverse ETL factor into the enrichment process for profile data? What are some of the issues that you have to account for in synchronizing profiles across platforms/products? How do you mititgate the impact of "regression to the mean" for systems that don't support all of the attributes that you want to maintain in a profile record? What are some of the data modeling considerations that you have had to account for to support e.g. historical changes (e.g. slowly changing dimensions)? What are the most interesting, innovative, or unexpected ways that you have seen Segment Unify used? What are the most interesting, unexpected, or challenging lessons that you have learned while working on Segment Unify? When is Segment Unify the wrong choice?

On today's episode of the podcast, I'm breaking down my April profit report and sharing something kind of scary. Before we dive in, I want to announce that I am bringing back my Unf*ck Your Biz course and launching it during my masterclass next week where I'll be teaching you the most common tax and legal mistakes business owners make at every stage of business. Sign up at www.bradendrake.com/masterclass I do these profit reports each month because not only do they help keep me accountable on my own bookkeeping so I can record thes episodes, I find that sharing my numbers shows all of you how I calculate my numbers and when we talk about it together the transparency can help us break down the stigma and baggage around talking about our numbers. To take it a step further, I'm doing something super scary and sharing my bookkeeping with you. Yes, my actual books and all my numbers, available in my actual spreadsheet that I update weekly. And you can get access to it here: www.bradendrake.com/bradensbooks I'm nosey and I love to hear about people's numbers so if you want to follow along with mine while you listen, go grab the spreadsheet. As always let's recap my goals for the year before we dive in. Consistent $20,000 months by Q3. My mantra is $20k months in 2023 by Q3 and the good news is, we're ahead of schedule! January: $13,000 February: $22,000 March: $27,000 April: $23,000 Excited to see how May, June, and July goes as they're typically the slowest months of the year, but I'm doing a launch in May so I do expect that to be higher this year. Get MRR to $20,000 by end of the year. I was on track because I did $14k last month but may be making some sacrifices on this one for the long-term best interests of the business, so we shall see where it goes (more on that later this episode). Get expenses under 35%. I've spent a lot getting the law firm up and running and I'll be hiring a few more people to join the team. With all this spending, YTD, I'm at 38%, so not too shabby. Next up, let's take a look at how April played out in comparison to my projections for it that I shared in last month's profit report (Projected --> Actual) Profit Rx: $9,000 → $6,500. I dug into this because it's a bit of a drastic change (this is why we analyze our numbers each month, so we can understand things like this). The reason is that we did a launch at one point that closed at the end of the month so monthly transactions, especially if the end of the month falls on a weekend, don't typically hit until the start of the next month, so now I can better project by MRR. Low Ticket offers: $2,000 → $1,100 We averaged a Contract Club sale a day for $930. Get yours at notavglaw.com Book sales: $1,000 → $80. Most of this will come in May because of what I mentioned earlier with sales hitting the card. I did a big pre-launch at the end of April with my book club where I sold like 35 copies. Tax Stuff: $5,000 - $8,000 This helped make up for the other deficits. Legal Stuff: $4,000 → $5,000 Consults: $2,500 → $500 Total: $23,500 → $23,300 I always have some trickle streams like affiliate income and annual membership renewals for Profit Rx which I typically count separately since it's not MRR. If I included it would bring Profit Rx to $9,000. If you're looking at my books, you'll see on my P&L Snapshot page you'll see a section of 2022 revenue and then my goals for the month. Instead of taking 2022 and divinding by 12 months, I‘m going month by month to account for slow seasons. The goal on my projection calculator was $19,000. I need to do 1.8 times what we did last year at this time to hit my 2023 stretch goal of $300,000 this year. This month I expected $19,000 and did 4,000 over that, for $2,000 over YTD. Where this could get spicy is in Q4, but hopefully things continue on the same path. This isn't a perfect system, especially when I change launch month schedules year to year. This is a profit report so let's talk about expenses as well. I had about $11,200 in expenses for what I call an owner profit of $12,000. Owner profit is the profit in the business before owner salary in an S Corp. I paid myself a salary of $4,300 which I'm going to need to increase pretty soon by about $2k a month to keep my reasonable salary for S Corp purposes. I spent $3,600 on my team which is 16%, a little above my goal of 15% but I'm probably going to need to up that to 20% as I hire more people. $1,200 in contractor expenses like my book editor. These are one-off projects, not people who come to my team meeting. $3,400 all my tools and software $45 for insurance but I'll be lumping my malpractice insurance in here soon which will cost me an arm and a leg $2,600 Marketing. A lot of this went to being Platinum sponsor for Conference Confident at Wedding MBA in November and I'm going to Drag Con to promote Drag Tax and I spent about $1,000 on merch to bring. $30 Meals $197 Online programs $1,300 Client fees. This is a new category because I am baking the trademark filing fee into the price of working with me. SAme if you hire us to file your LLC, etc. We pay the fees. $365 Affiliate payouts $1,300 other Now let's look at my projections for May. Profit Rx: $7,000 Low Ticket: $1,200 Book sales: $1,000 Tax Stuff: $4,000 Legal Stuff: $4,000 Consults: $0 Total - $33,200 If you haven't already, sign up for the Masterclass at www.bradendrake.com/masterclass where I'll be launching Unf*ck Your Biz. Spoiler alert - this is the lowest price we've ever launched it at and it will be going up this winter. And if you want to look at my books, get access to my doc at www.bradendrake.com/bradensbooks

Led by partners Dr. Mona Hanna-Attisha at the MSU-Hurley Pediatric Public Health Initiative and Dr. Luke Shaefer, faculty director of the University of Michigan's Poverty Solutions center, Rx Kids is a transformational effort to address child poverty and health equity.  Consistent with practices in other countries, Rx Kids boldly tackles a root cause of health disparities: poverty. A first-of-its-kind program, Rx Kids will provide unconditional cash allowances to pregnant moms and babies in Flint.Rx Kids—a first-in-the-nation program—is the solution to uplifting babies and young children out of poverty and into better health. In partnership with health care providers and community-engaged outreach, Rx Kids plans to prescribe all expectant mothers in Flint a one-time prenatal allowance ($1,500) and all infants (0-1 year) monthly allowances ($500/month). What sets Rx Kids apart from existing cash allowance programs is its intentional impact on maternal and infant health outcomes at a community level.  The anticipated reach of Rx Kids within the City of Flint during the intervention period (2024-2028) is over 6,000 families. “Rx Kids is something that has never been done before,” says Hanna-Attisha. “It is a citywide effort to disrupt poverty and improve health equity. Flint is the poorest city in the state. Our child poverty rates are about three times state and national averages and families are most poor when the babies are just born. Right before birth and in that first year of life, poverty spikes.“And for me as a pediatrician, that is maddening because that is the same time that child development is the most critical. Babies' brains actually double in size in that first year of life and that's when families are the poorest. It's so frustrating that we just band-aid so many problems that are associated with poverty and that we don't do something preventative.“I was tired of shrugging my shoulders, and I was tired of band-aiding. We do big things. We do hard things. Why not prescribe something that can lift our families out of poverty during this most critical time of child development? That's how the idea was born. We're going to give every pregnant mom in Flint a prenatal allowance, and then every baby until the age of 12 months will get a monthly cash allowance.“This is huge and transformative and has never been done before at a citywide level. There are a lot of great pilots across the country with sample sizes of 100 or 200, but this is big. This is going to be for the whole city. There are about 1,200 babies born in Flint a year, which is one of the reasons we can do this in Flint. It's a small big city. We also have great need, and we also have this built academic community partnership and this long history of the university investing in this city humbly working with community partners to do big things to improve health equity and to reduce disparities.”Why are cash allowances the best solution? “Families tend to know what they need the most,” says Shaefer. “Some families need food, some families need help paying the rent, some families need it for childcare, and some families need it to buy books and toys to help kids thrive. This is the beauty of cash. Milton Friedman was a huge proponent of using cash to help families, and it just empowers families. A couple of the other pieces of the puzzle on this is sometimes we have programs that only serve very poor families. We have other programs that serve middle class families. Part of the vision of Rx Kids that starts with Dr. Mona is that we're going to serve all the kids. Raising kids is expensive and it's hard. Society has a reason to come alongside parents in that work.“We're going to do something simple and come alongside all the families. And by doing that, we don't risk making it a stigmatized program that somehow is a marker that we're only giving it to families who aren't making it or aren't able to make ends meet that says something about them not being able to do that.“The messaging is incredibly different. We have seen cash allowances repeatedly, all around the world, work for families. And we've learned so many interesting things. There are some countries where we've been able to see as child benefits roll out, alcohol and tobacco spending among parents goes down. Sometimes people worry that there might be some folks who don't use the money in the right way. But in this case, it looks like probably because sometimes substance use is a reaction to stress and not having enough money is a big stressor that the effect is the opposite. We have all of that evidence, and we can bring it to bear on this program and do something in the United States that we have never done before.”How will Rx Kids change the trajectory of childhood poverty in Flint?“We think it's going to impact those critical maternal and infant health outcomes first,” continues Hanna-Attisha. “We think more folks will go to their prenatal visits and get connected with all the interventions and services in that space. That's going to improve birth outcomes like birth weight and prematurity and infant mortality and maternal morbidity, all these important and very costly health outcomes.“We think it's going to increase and support that relationship between moms and babies and their medical provider, both at prenatally and in the pediatric space like improving well visits, immunization rates, and necessary screenings and developmental things that happen there. We think for adults and parents, we're going to see decreased stress, which is seen throughout these kinds of programs. We're going to look at things like substance abuse, but also, we're going to measure things like happiness and hope and dignity and trust in government and institutions.“It's fair to say that in places like Flint, there's not much trust in government for many reasons, for longstanding neglect and disinvestment and systemic inequities. And we're hoping we will be able to measure an increase in that social contract between those critical institutions and the people who have been neglected for so long. This might play out with increased civic engagement, increased voting rates, increased engagement in neighborhood clubs, and participation in all kinds of different things. Some of my favorite things that we're going to measure are things at a community level because this has never been done at a community level.“What's going to happen to things like population stability? Are fewer people going to leave Flint? Will people move into Flint? These dollars are going to largely be spent in the community, and that's going to be an economic jolt for the community that's going to benefit all kinds of people, including local businesses and small businesses.“There are a whole slew of things that we're going to look at, and a lot of them are short term. We'll be able to see findings right away, but a lot will take years and maybe decades to play out. How does this impact things like kindergarten readiness and third grade reading and economic productivity and chronic disease rates and life expectancy? If you really lean on that science of early childhood, we understand that milieu of early childhood really portends life course trajectories. And if we can build a nutrient rich environment in early childhood, we think we'll be able to impact those life course outcomes for decades and maybe generations to come.”Talk about some challenges and opportunities as you work towards these goals.“One is actually how you distribute the money,” continues Shaefer. “We are incredibly lucky to be working with Give Directly, which is the international leader on how to do that exactly right. And they've done cash transfers like this all over the world. They've learned how to communicate with folks very clearly in an accessible way and how to troubleshoot. We're doing a ton of planning on this. The community infrastructure in Flint is stronger than any other place that I've ever worked. People are really communicating with each other and in sync with each other. That is what makes it possible.“We do have a lot of social welfare programs. They often do a little of this or a little of that. A lot of them are incredibly important. Those programs don't always work together as well as they should. Sometimes it seems like they're built up in silos. We're lucky to have great partners at the State of Michigan that are really helping us to figure out how to make sure somebody's food assistance isn't impacted, for example, by receiving this transfer where they wouldn't end up any better off than they were before.”“The biggest challenge right now is raising the dollars we need to make this happen,” Hanna-Attisha says. “We are honored and humbled by the $15 million challenge grant from the Mott Foundation. We have to raise another $15 million to unlock that grant. We have been writing grants and talking to foundations and funders and governments to try to bring in the necessary funds to do this, not just for a few years and not just for five years, but we want to do this for a long time. The most acute challenge right now is raising the dollars, and I'm confident that we will be able to raise these dollars and that we will get the match. If folks want to contribute, they can go to FlintRxKids.com. Every bit counts.“We hope to have this go live in 2024. And just like everything that we've done in Flint, it hasn't been about Flint, it's been about kids and communities everywhere. Even now, before we even started this program, we're already thinking about how we can make sure that every kid in Michigan and in this country benefits from Rx Kids.“Another thing that I love about this program is it's being led by two folks from two different institutions that don't often get along. This is another great example of how folks can come together for a common purpose. And the team that we're rooting for is team kids. And both our public universities have amazing strengths and assets, and this is one of the great examples where this community-based work on behalf of moms and babies is for a higher purpose than what happens on those Saturday football games.”Listen to “MSU Today with Russ White” on the radio and through Spotify, Apple Podcasts, and wherever you get your shows.

Lots of stroke survivors joined the stroke club due to high blood pressure. I'm one of them. The biggest challenge with high blood pressure is that it doesn't hurt. Most people will feel no symptoms unless something goes terribly wrong. Or they might learn they have the condition if they get an annual physical. Because of the danger of high blood pressure directly, and because of the danger of other conditions that manifest as high blood pressure, it's important to check it regularly, and that doesn't mean you have to go to the doctor every week. You can find home blood pressure meters all over the place -- from Amazon to Costco to the corner grocery store. But which one is best? And what do you need to know if you've already had a stroke? This week, I'm joined by Carol Lucarelli of Omron Healthcare. Omron is a leading manufacturer of home blood pressure meters. In fact, one of their devices is sitting on the table next to me as I type this. It was that very device that gave me the 210 over 160 reading that kicked off my stroke story several years ago. More recently it read 134 over 77 -- not perfect, but still much better than the condition that collapsed my right middle cerebral artery. One reason I wanted to talk with Carol was that I heard about Omron's Going for Zero mission. The other reason is that I like tech and gadgets, especially when they can save lives. IMAGINE A HEALTHIER WORLD We believe the next generation won't be defined by age, but by a world without heart attacks or strokes. This is a world-changing mind-set we call Going for Zero™. We do our part through technology supporting personal fitness, heart health, healthy lungs and freedom from pain. You bring this commitment to life by understanding and sharing heart health with every step. https://omronhealthcare.com/generation-zero/ Carol joins us to talk about how these devices work, how they compare to the doctor's office, and why we should trust devices from Omron from wrist devices to upper arm cuffs to smart watches. If you don't see the audio player below, click here to listen to the conversation on the original site.   Click here for an AI-generated transcript Who is Carol Lucarelli? Carol Lucarelli is the Executive Director of Marketing and Ecommerce at OMRON Healthcare, the global leader in personal heart health and wellness technology. Lucarelli is a seasoned marketing professional with over 25 years of experience in the consumer packaged goods space. During her time at OMRON, Lucarelli has led the marketing initiatives for numerous product innovations, including the launches of HeartGuide Complete as well as VitalSight, OMRON's first remote patient monitoring service. Wrist vs Arm Home blood pressure monitors typically come in two types -- wrist or upper arm. The wrist mounted devices are typically smaller. You simply put it on your wrist, secure it, press a button, and raise your hand to get it at the appropriate level. The upper arm models will typically wrap around your bicep or upper arm. Some will have the guts of the device on the cuff; others will have a hose that goes to a device on your desk, table, or lap. In the past, I assumed the upper arm would be the more reliable device because that's what many medical facilities use. Over the past few years, though, I've seen more medical teams using the wrist versions for convenience. Carol also explained that whether it's wrist mounted or upper arm mounted, the devices are held to the exact same standard of accuracy. As long as a device is on the Validated Device List, you can assume the model is accurate. Ask your doctor if they have a recommendation. There are all sorts of health reasons why one style might work better for someone than another style. Different deficits after stroke may impact the choice. While cognitive, language, sensory, and pain challenges can all have an impact, hemiparesis - or limb paralysis - is probably the bigger factor. Once you choose your device, it's also a good idea to bring it with you the next time you go to the doctor. This way your doctor can double-check its accuracy against their own blood pressure equipment. While the Validated Device list ensures your model is generally accurate, this process ensures your particular meter is accurate. Hemiparesis recommendations Typically, we take blood pressure measurements on the left arm. It's closer to the heart and will provide a more accurate reading for non-stroke folks. After stroke, a stroke affected limb, however, doesn't have the same muscle activity of a non-affected limb. And that muscle activity affects blood pressure readings. That limb may also experience more edema or swelling due to less effective circulation, lymphatic draining, and other things. That can also impact the blood pressure readings. So, to correctly read blood pressure, you should take a reading on the unaffected side. A difference of 10 points between the sides is not uncommon. The other issue that impacts readings is arm position. The cuff where the reading takes place should be level with the heart. With an upper arm cuff, that's easy. With a wrist mounted device, it's more challenging. You have to be able to lift the wrist to the same height as the heart. Your arm is also supposed to be relaxed when you take the reading so it should be on a bed, table, shelf, or some other item to hold it at heart level. To get an accurate reading, the arm should not be held up under its own power. If you have a care partner who can fasten the device, great. Then an upper arm device can be easy to use. You don't need to worry about arm height because it's naturally at heart level. If the main unit connects via hose to the cuff, you can even use the unaffected hand to push the ON button. If you're by yourself, the problem is fastening the cuff in the first place. It took me several years after stroke until my left arm had enough strength and dexterity to tighten the cuff on my upper arm. Sometimes I still don't get it right and have to try again. Fighting with that costs energy and aggravation, which raises my blood pressure so now I have to take extra time to make sure I relax adequately to get an accurate reading. Once the cuff is set and I chill out a bit, I can get a good reading. A wrist cuff is easier to put on. It still requires a certain amount of dexterity and strength in my affected hand, but it's much less. And it's easier to reach the strap with my teeth, so I can use my bite to help tighten the straps. Then the trick is to get it at heart level. Sitting up can be tough because I have to use my affected side to lift my unaffected arm so I'm not messing with the reading by using the strength in the arm with the monitor. One solution to that which works with both types is to take readings in my recliner our lounge chair. I can get strapped in and then lay back with my arms in neutral positions and the device naturally at heart level, relative to the ground. So, putting the device on is likely easier with a wrist device. Getting an accurate reading is likely easier with an upper arm device. Of course, that all assumes I'm doing this by myself. If someone is able to consistently help, it changes that calculation a bit. Consider your goals, your deficits, and your doctors' recommendations. Try some different devices to find the one that you will use most consistently to generate the most accurate readings. Though the Omron Heart Guide wrist monitor / smart watch does activate my technolust… Getting Good Data Carol gave four recommendations for getting an accurate reading. First, sit upright in a hard-back chair. No slouching. This will give you a good base to start from, assuming your deficits allow you to do this. Second, be seated for 5-10 minutes before taking your reading. If you've been moving around from place to place or doing your sit-to-stand exercises for the day, your blood pressure will likely be elevated from that activity. Third, keep the cuff at heart level.  If it's an upper arm cuff, that's easy. If it's a wrist cuff, you may need to support the arm that's wearing the device. Fourth, keep your feet flat on the ground, assuming tone and spasticity allow that. Crossing your legs or ankles will restrict the flow of blood and reduce the accuracy of your readings. These tips will help you get readings, but more important than your exact posture is taking your readings in the same (or similar) posture each time to ensure consistency. Often the trends over time are more important than any particular reading. Validated Device List Whichever style of meter you choose, you want it to be accurate. And a good place to start is the Validated Device List. The Validated Device list is maintained by the American Medical Association. The devices on it have been evaluated by a third party to ensure they meet the standards for accuracy that doctors can trust. While Omron has a bunch of devices on this list, it includes plenty of other manufacturers, too. All of these devices will meet the minimum standards for accuracy. Consistency We end up talking about consistency a lot on this show. Carol talks about the importance of taking blood pressure readings consistently. The actual result often matters less than the trends over time. And the only way to spot trends over time is to consistently collect that data, like brushing your teeth. Consistency isn't just about blood pressure. Consistently executing a PT, OT, or SLP home exercise program is one of the keys to recovery. We talk about the thousands of reps needed for neuroplasticity over time, but it's the consistency that will make that happen. Doing 100 reps a day, every day will yield better results than doing 1,000 reps once a week. The core call to action for every episode of the show is, "Don't get best…get better." You don't have to become the best at anything to be successful; it's likely to be a fool's errand. Instead, just try to get a little better every day. Consistent work to improve just a tiny bit can add up to huge gains over time. What consistency lacks in flash and drama, it makes up for in long-term results. Hack of the Week Carol shared a couple tips and I have one of my own this week. First, use electronic reminders around the house. That could include smart phone alarms. Or it could be devices like the Amazon Alexa or the Google Home devices. Set those devices to remind you to check your blood pressure, take your medication, do your exercises, or whatever. Your brain is doing enough in recovery. If you can outsource some routine stuff to robots, go for it. When there are things about your devices that you don't like, let the manufacturer know. When enough people make suggestions or point out problems, then they may realize changes need to be made. If they don't hear from customers, or customers whose business they lost, it's a lot harder to make the most appropriate changes to the products. And, while I could be wrong (and hope I am) I don't think most medical device companies have folks with hemiparesis working in their engineering departments. Finally, my biggest struggle with an upper arm blood pressure cuff is tightening it adequately with my affected hand. My strength and dexterity are improving, but I still have a long way to go. One trick I have is to tighten it around my elbow and lower arm. I still can't tighten it all the way; it will be loose there. Once I have that secure though, I can slide it up to my upper arm (with effort). While it was loose on my lower arm, because my upper arm is bigger, it is now tight enough to get a reading without the machine throwing an error message. Links Where do we go from here? If you don't already have one, get a home blood pressure monitor from the Validated Device list and check your blood pressure consistently. The magic numbers you are looking for are 120/80.
