Can AI and mass timber help solve the housing crisis? In this episode of Constructive, Seth sits down with Seyfihan Usarer — Co-Founder & COO of Algoma — to explore how their startup is transforming the slow, siloed preconstruction process into a fast, transparent decision engine for real estate developers.From feasibility studies powered by zoning-AI and comps to mass timber kits of parts, Seyf shares how Algoma is helping developers go from site to permit with clarity and speed — while keeping carbon footprint in check. They talk housing affordability, startup lessons from McKinsey and TikTok, and why the future of construction is an optimization game.

In this powerful episode, Michelle Glogovac explores how podcasting can transform political communication by centering human connection. She discusses why it's time for politicians and candidates to go beyond policy points and debates—and start sharing their personal stories, values, and lived experiences through podcasts. Michelle introduces her newest initiative, the Podcast Campaign Tour™, designed to help candidates show up authentically, build trust with voters, and connect with communities through meaningful, accessible conversations. If you're a political candidate, campaign staffer, podcast host, or voter who craves deeper civic engagement, this episode is your roadmap to how podcasting can shift the narrative—and the vote. What Michelle's Talking About... Politics are everywhere and affect our daily lives. Constructive criticism of political parties is essential. Human connection is vital in political engagement. Podcasts can bridge the gap between politicians and voters. Investing in politicians as people fosters community support. Candidates should engage with various podcast platforms. Trust between podcast hosts and their audience is crucial. Political campaigns should utilize podcasts for outreach. Every election year is important, not just presidential ones. Creating resources for politicians and podcast hosts can enhance political discourse.

Albert Bou Fadel didn't set out to build construction tech. He was just trying to run his glazing crews and make sure six-figure payrolls actually lined up with what was happening on-site.In this episode of Constructive, Albert shares how his frustration with unreliable time tracking led him to create SmartBarrel: a deceptively simple, field-first solution that captures accurate labor data without friction. What's more compelling, though, is Albert's philosophy: build tools that align incentives, eliminate excuses, and solve one thing extremely well before moving to the next.If you're tired of big promises and underwhelming results in ConTech, this one's for you.

Building and maintaining strong relationships is not just about having a network of friends and family; it's about creating a foundation for a happy and fulfilling life. Strong relationships provide emotional support, improve mental health, and contribute to overall well-being. Here's how to build and nurture these vital connections.   1. Prioritize Quality Time Quality time is the cornerstone of any strong relationship. It's not about the quantity of time spent together, but the quality. Engage in meaningful conversations, share experiences, and be present. Whether it's a weekly family dinner, a coffee date with a friend, or a phone call with a loved one, make time for those who matter.   2. Effective Communication Open and honest communication is key to building trust and understanding. Express your feelings, listen actively, and be empathetic. Avoid assumptions and clarify any misunderstandings. Healthy communication helps in resolving conflicts and strengthens the bond between individuals.   3. Show Appreciation and Gratitude Appreciation and gratitude go a long way in fostering positive relationships. Acknowledge the efforts and kindness of others. Small gestures, like saying thank you or expressing your appreciation, can make a big difference. Let your loved ones know that they are valued and cherished.   4. Be Supportive Being there for each other in times of need is essential. Offer support, encouragement, and a shoulder to lean on. Celebrate successes together and provide comfort during tough times. Knowing that someone has your back strengthens the emotional connection.   5. Maintain Boundaries Healthy relationships require respecting each other's boundaries. Understand and respect personal space, preferences, and limits. Clear boundaries prevent misunderstandings and promote mutual respect, ensuring a healthy dynamic.   6. Resolve Conflicts Constructively Conflicts are inevitable in any relationship. The key is to address them constructively. Avoid blame and focus on finding solutions. Practice patience, empathy, and forgiveness. Constructive conflict resolution strengthens trust and deepens the relationship.   7. Shared Interests and Activities Engaging in shared interests and activities can strengthen the bond between individuals. Whether it's a hobby, a sport, or a cause you're passionate about, doing things together creates shared memories and experiences that enrich the relationship.   8. Embrace Vulnerability Vulnerability is a strength, not a weakness. Opening up and sharing your true self fosters intimacy and trust. Don't be afraid to express your fears, dreams, and insecurities. Authenticity leads to deeper and more meaningful connections.   9. Invest in Self-Care Taking care of yourself is crucial for maintaining healthy relationships. When you are physically and emotionally well, you are better equipped to support others. Practice self-care, manage stress, and prioritize your well-being.   10. Consistent Effort Building and maintaining strong relationships require consistent effort. Regularly check in with your loved ones, show your appreciation, and invest time and energy into the relationship. Consistency builds trust and demonstrates commitment.     Strong relationships are the bedrock of a happy and fulfilling life. They provide emotional support, enhance mental well-being, and contribute to overall happiness. By prioritizing quality time, communicating effectively, showing appreciation, and being supportive, you can build and nurture relationships that stand the test of time. Remember, the effort you put into your relationships today will pay off in a lifetime of happiness and fulfillment. So, take the time to connect, appreciate, and cherish the important people in your life.

In this powerful episode of My Simplified Life, host Michelle Glogovac sits down with former Congresswoman Marie Newman to discuss her inspiring journey from grassroots activism to the halls of Congress. Newman opens up about how her daughter's experiences fueled her passion for change, what it truly takes to run for office as a woman, and how personal storytelling can shift political narratives. The conversation covers the emotional weight of the January 6th insurrection, the systemic challenges women face in leadership, and the urgent need for civic engagement. Listeners will walk away motivated to speak up, get involved, and help shape a more inclusive future. What We're Talking About... Marie Newman entered politics to fight for her daughter's rights and future. The political system remains deeply challenging—and often hostile—for women candidates. Grassroots activism plays a critical role in driving real community change. Storytelling isn't just emotional—it's strategic and essential in shifting political narratives. The January 6th insurrection marked a defining moment in America's democratic crisis. We need more women in elected office—not just as a goal, but as a necessity for true representation. Political success is never a solo journey—community backing makes all the difference. The political arena is riddled with unethical tactics and behind-the-scenes power plays. Constructive dialogue with Republican leaders is necessary, even when it's uncomfortable. Newman reflects that she's more effective and impactful as an activist than she ever felt in Congress.

This conversation delves into the complexities of shared property rights, focusing on concurrent ownership, leasehold estates, and non-possessory interests. The discussion highlights the importance of understanding different types of co-ownership, such as tenancy in common and joint tenancy, and their implications for property rights. It also covers leasehold estates, emphasizing the distinction between various types of leases and the duties of landlords and tenants. Finally, the conversation explores non-possessory interests, including easements and covenants, and their role in property law.TakeawaysUnderstanding concurrent ownership is crucial for property law exams.Different types of co-ownership dictate rights and responsibilities.Tenancy in common allows independent action without permission from others.Joint tenancy includes the right of survivorship, which has significant implications.Severance can occur through sale or partition, affecting ownership rights.Tenancy by the entirety offers protection for married couples.Leasehold estates separate ownership from possession for a limited time.The covenant of quiet enjoyment protects tenants from substantial interference.Landlords have a duty to maintain habitable conditions for tenants.Easements provide nonpossessory rights to use another's land.In a tenancy in common, there is no right of survivorship; a deceased co-tenant's interest passes to their heirs or devisees. In a joint tenancy, the right of survivorship means the surviving joint tenant(s) automatically inherit the deceased co-tenant's share.The four unities are unity of time (interests acquired simultaneously), unity of title (interests acquired through the same instrument), unity of interest (identical interests), and unity of possession (equal right to possess the whole property).Severance can occur through sale, partition, or sometimes mortgage. Severance breaks the unities for the transferred share and converts the co-ownership of that share into a tenancy in common.Tenancy by the entirety provides strong protection against unilateral alienation and individual creditor claims, as neither spouse can sell, encumber, or transfer the property alone, nor can individual creditors reach the property unless both spouses are liable.Partition in kind physically divides the property into separate parcels for each co-tenant. Partition by sale orders the property to be sold and the proceeds divided among the co-tenants.An estate for years is a leasehold estate that endures for a fixed, predetermined period. It terminates automatically upon the expiration of the term without the need for notice.Constructive eviction occurs when a landlord's wrongful acts or omissions substantially interfere with a tenant's use and enjoyment, making the premises uninhabitable or unsuitable for their intended purpose. The tenant may terminate the lease and seek damages if they provide notice and vacate within a reasonable time.The implied warranty of habitability requires landlords, primarily in residential leases, to provide and maintain premises fit for human habitation, meeting basic standards of safety, sanitation, and structural integrity.An affirmative easement grants the right to use or enter another's land for a specific purpose. A negative easement restricts the servient owner from certain uses of their land, such as blocking light, air, or support.Equitable servitudes are enforced in equity by injunction and require intent, touch and concern, and notice, but not privity of estate. Real covenants are enforceable at law through damages and require intent, privity of estate, touch and concern, and notice.shared property rights, concurrent ownership, leasehold estates, non-possessory interests, tenancy in common, joint tenancy, easements, covenants, property law

Sean Brodrick, Editor of Wealth Megatrends and contributing analyst to Weiss Ratings Daily, joins us to outline why he is not convinced in the Wall Street narrative that the worst parts of the tariff implications are behind us, based on macroeconomic data he is following including the weakness in the US long bond, US dollar, and business guidance through year end.  He is only holding the highest conviction sectors like gold, precious metals stocks, dividend paying mid-tier oil and gas stocks, and utility stocks, in this continued environment of uncertainty.    We start off discuss the continued challenges to trade barriers, issues with the US deficit and increased debt loads, and international buyers still scaling out of US markets to repatriate funds into their own domestic stock markets.  Sean has been bullish European defense stocks, South American fintech and water stocks, and even Canadian stocks, although he's not yet transitioned to buying Japanese stocks at this point.  He is not convinced that large US tech stocks are in the same kind of safe upward trajectory that they have been for years and believe AI and other foreign platforms may be a threat to some domestic large-cap tech stocks.   With regards to the commodities sector, Sean is constructive that this recent pullback in gold has been a buying opportunity and is still bullish both gold and silver stocks in the medium-term.   He is also is getting interested in accumulating the better run intermediated oil and natural gas stocks that pay good dividends and may be the acquisition targets of the larger energy companies.  He likes nat gas power as a bridge energy for big data companies and AI, and still sees value in the utility stocks. This leads into a discussion on why he's still bullish in the longer-term for copper and copper equities, but doesn't feel it is as imminent or urgent to get positioned.   Click here to follow along with Sean's work at Weiss Ratings Daily and Wealth Megatrends   Click here to learn more about Resource Trader

Over 600 leaders of universities and colleges recently signed a statement for “constructive engagement” as the result of conflict between the government and higher education. Particularly concerning are cuts in funding for research, student visa status and DEI. On the next Charlotte Talks, we hear from Davidson College President Doug Hicks about the pressures facing educational institutions.

In the latest episode of "The Traveling Introvert," the issue of being labeled as "too quiet" in professional settings is explored. The feedback of being too quiet can have various interpretations, such as communication style, engagement level, or visibility in the workplace. It's crucial to ask specific questions to understand the real concern, whether it's a matter of not speaking up in meetings or not being visible enough in projects. The episode encourages a curious and non-defensive approach when seeking clarity on feedback, emphasizing the importance of understanding the expectations and measurements used at work. Constructive conversations can then lead to a compromise that allows introverts to communicate authentically while meeting workplace expectations.

When it comes to… basically anything, everyone has an opinion, and our photography and businesses are rarely exempt. And because our work is often so personal, the feedback can hit hard.But not all feedback is useful, relevant, or even true. It is just information, and we get to choose what to do with that information and how much we let it affect us.In this episode, I'm sharing why feedback can feel so personal in creative businesses, how to navigate different types of feedback in our photography businesses, and how we can differentiate helpful feedback that can help us grow from the feedback that isn't serving us.Let's dig in!What's in this episode:[00:00] Intro[00:53] Why feedback can cut so deep and how we can use it to grow[01:39] How to handle feedback on your pricing[03:30] How to navigate feedback from disappointed clients[06:26] Navigating critiques, both from genuine feedback and from the trolls[09:00] What feedback is… and what it's notTune in to this episode for some advice on taking the feedback that serves your business and leaving what does not!For full show notes, resources, links and to download the transcript, visit our website: https://themilkyway.ca/podcast/Grab your spot for the 2025 Online Newborn Retreat!

The psychological effects of media consumption and keeping up with the 24-hour news cycle are vast. It can sometimes feel impossible to stay educated on current events without also feeling hopeless, disempowered, or even enraged. Worse, the incentives and structures of modern media outlets seem more and more geared towards capturing our attention at any cost… including our mental health, trust in one another, and even open societies themselves. Given this, is there a way to get back to a form of media and journalism that helps us feel empowered, and if so, how do we do it?  Today, Nate is joined by neuroscientist and best-selling author, Maren Urner, to discuss the critical role of journalism in democracy, the importance of rebuilding trust in media, and how neuroscience can inform our understanding of media consumption. Maren makes the case for constructive journalism – a more balanced and solutions-oriented approach to reporting – as a powerful antidote to the relentlessly negative tone of traditional media. She also highlights the urgent need for systemic change in the way journalism operates if we want to foster a more informed and empowered public. How do our deeply ingrained cognitive biases shape the way news is produced and consumed? Could journalism evolve to become a force for collective action and positive change, rather than just another profit-driven industry competing for our clicks? And in a world where our attention has become one of the most valuable – and contested – resources, how can we take greater ownership over the media we choose to engage with? (Conversation recorded on March 31st, 2025)   About Maren Urner: Maren Urner is a neuroscientist and, since September 2024, Professor for Sustainable Transformation at Münster University of Applied Sciences and Head of the new Master's program in Sustainable Transformation Design. In 2016, she co-founded "Perspective Daily," the first ad-free online magazine for constructive journalism. She led the editorial team as editor-in-chief and served as managing director until March 2019. After her time at Perspective Daily, she taught as a professor of media psychology at the Media University of Applied Sciences in Cologne until August 2024. Maren has been a columnist for the Frankfurter Rundschau since September 2020. Her three books, End the Daily Doomsday, Out of the Eternal Crisis, and Radically Emotional: How Feelings Make Politics are SPIEGEL bestsellers. She is the winner of the 2023 BAUM Environmental and Sustainability Award in the science category.   Show Notes and More Watch this video episode on YouTube   Want to learn the broad overview of The Great Simplification in 30 minutes?

Markets will open a little weaker this morning: Tariffs have not gone away, and Nvidia says it will take a $5-Billion charge on an AI chip they can ship overseas because of the ban. Still, Nvidia continues to outperform the market. The bigger news headlines will be about "The Death Cross" of the 50-DMA crossing below the 200-DMA, which will provide more aggressive overhead resistance for stock prices as they try to recover. Basically what this indicates is a continuation of market consolidation in a corrective period. "Death Cross!" does not mean the next financial crisis is imminent. There are two types of Corrective Markets: Event-driven and Construct-driven, or shorter-term vs longer-term. Tariffs are the current event, and markets will price-in the effects. These tend to last about 90-days. Constructive-driven corrections are triggered by credit issues or meltdowns like the Dot-com Crisis, and typically take up to 18-months to complete. Markets are currently in a cycle where bases are being formed, and the corrective process is nearly concluded.

This Podcast Is Episode 623, And It's About The Art Of Giving And Receiving Constructive Criticism In Construction Think about the last time you gave or received feedback. Did it inspire growth and improvement or leave someone feeling deflated? When done right, constructive feedback is a powerful tool for driving success. But it's a fine line – getting it wrong can do more harm than good.   For business owners, managers, and team leaders, effectively giving and receiving constructive feedback isn't just a nice skill; it's a necessity. Feedback shapes stronger teams, builds trust, and moves companies forward.    In the construction industry, where projects are often complex and involve numerous stakeholders, giving and receiving constructive criticism is essential for success. Feedback can significantly impact safety, quality, and project timelines, making it crucial to foster a culture where constructive feedback is the norm rather than the exception.   Understanding Constructive Criticism Constructive criticism in construction focuses on performance, processes, and safety rather than personal attributes. It aims to highlight areas for improvement while providing actionable suggestions to enhance skills and procedures. This feedback cultivates a transparent work environment where team members feel empowered to address challenges without fear of personal confrontation. Constructive Feedback vs. Destructive Criticism Not all feedback is created equal. Constructive feedback is designed to promote growth. It's specific, actionable, and focuses on behavior or outcomes, not personal traits. Destructive criticism, on the other hand, often comes off as judgmental and unhelpful, targeting the person rather than the problem. Consider these examples: Constructive Criticism: I noticed a few inconsistencies in the framing of the last project. Let's review the measurements to improve them for the next build and ensure we're aligned. I believe this will help enhance the overall quality of the work and avoid any potential issues during inspections. Destructive Criticism: The framing on that last job was terrible. You need to get it right, or this line of work isn't for you. In the first example, the feedback focuses on improving the work and offers support, while the second example is judgmental and demoralizing, focusing solely on the individual's shortcomings. Constructive feedback opens the door to improvement, while destructive criticism shuts down. By aligning feedback with a growth mindset, businesses can foster trust, encourage professional development, and build an environment where individuals and teams thrive. Why Constructive Feedback Matters Great feedback isn't just about pointing out mistakes – it's a catalyst for growth. Here's how constructive feedback benefits construction businesses: Improves employee performance: Identifies strengths, weaknesses, and areas for improvement. Enhances team dynamics: Encourages open communication and collaboration. Builds trust and engagement: Employees feel valued when their growth is a priority. Fosters continuous learning: Positioned as a tool for development, feedback encourages individuals to keep improving. Drives business success: Growth at the individual level contributes directly to company goals. Employees need to know their work matters, and constructive feedback signals that their success is tied to the business. How to give constructive feedback effectively: Providing great feedback takes preparation, empathy, and a strategic approach. Here's a breakdown of how to deliver it successfully: 1. Choose the right time and place Deliver feedback privately where the person feels comfortable and safe to discuss openly. Avoid giving feedback in the heat of the moment; instead, allow emotions to settle so the conversation remains productive. 2. Be specific and focused Vague feedback like "You need to do better" isn't helpful. Instead, reference specific situations and actions. For example, say, "During yesterday's client call, I noticed some confusion about the project timeline. Preparing a detailed overview beforehand might help in future calls." 3. Use "I" statements Frame feedback with "I" statements to avoid sounding accusatory. For example: Instead of "You're always interrupting me," say, "I felt interrupted during our meeting, and it made it difficult for me to express my points." 4. Balance positives and negatives Use the feedback sandwich technique: Start with a positive comment. Address the area for improvement with actionable suggestions. End with encouragement. For example Positive Comment: The team did an excellent job with the safety protocols on the last project. Everyone was vigilant about wearing helmets and harnesses, which helped create a safe work environment. Area for Improvement: However, I noticed a few delays in material deliveries that could have been better managed. For future projects, let's improve our communication with suppliers to make sure everything gets on time, as this will help keep us on schedule. Encouragement: Overall, I'm really impressed with everyone's dedication. If we can tighten up the logistics of material deliveries, we'll see even greater success on our projects. Keep up the great work! This structure helps maintain morale while addressing areas for improvement, fostering a constructive atmosphere for the team. 5. Offer solutions and support Feedback shouldn't just point out issues – it needs to provide solutions. For instance, suggest additional training, offer to share the workload, or brainstorm ideas together. This shows a commitment to the person's growth. 6. Follow up Check in after the feedback conversation to see how the individual applies the advice. This shows that your feedback wasn't a one-off critique but part of an ongoing growth process. Receiving constructive feedback positively: Feedback is a two-way street. Learning to receive it with an open mind is just as crucial. Here's how to ensure you're extracting the most value from feedback: 1. Listen actively When receiving feedback, focus on understanding rather than responding. Avoid interrupting or dismissing the feedback outright. Instead, paraphrase to confirm understanding, e.g., "I'm hearing that I should work on communicating deadlines more thoroughly. Is that correct?" 2. Avoid defensiveness It can be tempting to explain away criticism, but doing so may make you seem resistant to growth. Accept feedback with humility and thank the individual for pointing out opportunities for improvement. 3. Reflect on the information Take time to process the feedback before acting on it. Ask yourself: What specific actions can I take to improve? Is there a pattern in the feedback I've received? How can I use this information to grow? 4. View feedback as an opportunity Having a growth mindset is key. Look at feedback not as criticism but as an investment in your potential. 5. Implement changes Feedback without action benefits no one. Develop a clear plan to address areas of improvement and track your progress. Building A Feedback-Positive Environment To truly unlock the power of feedback, create a culture where feedback is valued, sought after, and given freely. Here's how: To make feedback a regular part of your business culture, hold routine one-on-ones, team debriefs, or anonymous surveys. Celebrate employees who both give and act on constructive feedback. This reinforces its value and shows that it's a tool for growth, not punishment. When leaders seek and act on feedback, it sets the tone for the entire business. An open and transparent leadership style fosters a safe environment for feedback. Equip managers and team members with the skills to give and receive feedback effectively. Training in conflict resolution, active listening, and emotional intelligence can be game-changing. Final thoughts By prioritizing constructive criticism, the construction industry can improve individual performances and enhance overall project outcomes, ensuring that teams work more effectively together and that projects are completed safely and on time. Constructive feedback is more than a tool – it's a mindset. It encourages growth, builds trust, and empowers you to achieve your full potential. Whether you're delivering it to your team or receiving it from others, the key lies in empathy, clarity, and a focus on solutions. Here's your actionable takeaway: Start small. Use the strategies in this blog to have one meaningful feedback conversation this week. Observe the impact, refine your approach, and make feedback a regular part of your leadership toolkit. The benefits will cascade beyond your expectations – for your people and construction business.

If values like respecting proper parental authority and discretion, promoting awareness and admiration for American and Western culture, preparing students for constructive and knowledgeable citizenship, and conveying an accurate sense of American history in world context, once again became priorities, as there were in the past, what would K-12 education look like?In this presentation, Professor Amy Wax examined the debate on education to go beyond advocacy for school choice and how expanded school choice policies can produce desirable substantive reforms in K-12 educational practice. Professor Wax addressed these issues in her keynote address at the Liberty & Literacy Forum. Amy Wax's work addresses issues in social welfare law and policy as well as the relationship of the family, the workplace, and labor markets. By bringing to bear her training in biomedical sciences and appellate practice as well as her interest in economic analysis, Wax has developed a uniquely insightful approach to problems in her areas of expertise. Wax has published widely in law journals, addressing liberal theory and welfare work requirements as well as the economics of federal disability laws. Current works in progress include articles on same-sex marriage, disparate impact theory and group demographics, rational choice and family structure, and the law and neuroscience of deprivation.Her most recent book is "Race, Wrongs, and Remedies: Group Justice in the 21st Century" (Hoover Institution Press/Rowman & Littlefield, 2009). Wax has received the A. Leo Levin Award for Excellence in an Introductory Course and the Harvey Levin Memorial Award for Teaching Excellence. As an Assistant to the Solicitor General in the Office of the Solicitor General at the U.S. Department of Justice in the late 1980s and early 1990s, Wax argued 15 cases before the United States Supreme Court.
