On a podcast with Emilie Steckenborn of LVMH China, she insisted that I meet with Robert Foye to discuss a podcast appearance. She insisted. After 2 minutes on a call with Robert, I moved from chatting to scheduling. Despite conversations on the web about how the trade should be more innovative and rethink, Robert feels you need experience to move forward. How can you innovate without knowing the pitfalls of what came before?  With Robert Foye, it is about leadership and adaptability. Hear it here. Robert Foye doesn't just bridge the world between Coca-Cola and Cabernet—he's crossed it, mapped it, and poured a glass for the rest of us. If you think multinational beverage leadership and the romance of wine are oil and water, Foye's the proof that sometimes, opposites blend perfectly. In this illuminating episode of Wine Talks, listeners embark on a journey through the tumultuous cycles and fascinating nuances of the wine business, as told by a leader who's helmed both Accolade Wines and Treasury Wine Estates. You'll learn why wine endures as a cultural ambassador, even as trends and consumption habits shift; how the COVID-19 pandemic didn't just pause the industry but rewrote its rules (and reawakened dormant talents at both the kitchen table and the boardroom). Foye deftly uncorks the challenges of marketing wine in today's saturated landscape—offering a rare look at what works, and what falls flat, on the shelf and online. He'll walk you through what sets wine apart from other consumer packaged goods, exploring the rich stories and personal connections that make sharing a bottle an experience unlike any other. Whether he's recounting tales of adapting wine language for the next generation, weighing in on the role of private equity investments, or describing the unexpected kinship between a seasoned wine executive and the humble “second cheapest bottle,” Foye brings an insider's wit and worldliness to every anecdote. You'll come away not just with a deeper understanding of today's wine market, but with a renewed sense of why, through its ups and downs, wine persists—linking land, language, and laughter with each pour. This conversation will leave you thirsty, not just for your next glass, but for the stories behind every label. ✅ Ever wonder why wine is so much more than just a drink? ✅ Dive into the art, business, and soul behind every bottle with host Paul Kalemkiarian and guest Robert Foye. ✅ From global industry shakeups to the magic of sharing a special glass, this episode of Wine Talks uncorks what makes wine irresistible—and why its story is far from over. ✅ Whether you're a wine lover or business buff, you'll leave with a new appreciation (and craving for the next pour).

They are the best for understanding how your student will likely perform on the exam. School counselors cannot endorse any particular test prep tutors, but they may still have individuals they could recommend based on the experience of their students and word of mouth.While you vet your student's test prep provider, they also vet your student's willingness and motivation.  “One of the values of a good test prep person or expert is they make the process more efficient, they make it more effective. And that goes a long way with students who are busy and looking for results as quickly as possible.” – Amy SeeleyAbout Amy Seeley: Amy Seeley, a formally certified and licensed secondary education teacher, received her degree from John Carroll University. She began her career in test preparation in 1994 working for Princeton Review. After gaining valuable knowledge and experience as a part-time tutor, she turned that passion into a career with Townsend Learning Centers. About Mike Bergin: After 30 years of experience in every aspect of standardized test preparation, Mike Bergin knows what works in test prep and what doesn't. A nationally recognized leader in test prep, Mike founded Chariot Learning in 2009 to deliver on the promise of what truly transformative, individualized education can and should be.

The stress of an unpredictable world can often feel like a weight on our chest, making each breath a conscious effort. It's a revelation when we discover that this very act of breathing can become our sanctuary. On our show today, Carolyn Cowan, former fashion and makeup maven turned psychotherapist, introduces us to the art of breathwork, especially tailored for the trials of pregnancy. Her book, "Breathing for Pregnancy," isn't merely pages filled with techniques; it's a lifeline for expectant mothers navigating the stormy seas of anxiety and the unique challenges the pandemic has introduced. Through personal anecdotes and proven methods, Carolyn guides us on a journey of harnessing the power of our breath to calm the nervous system and embrace a sense of peace. Amidst the hustle of modern life, with its screens that demand our attention and the media that shapes our perceptions, Carolyn invites us to pause and reflect on the importance of solitude for growth and creativity. She shares her own transformation from seeking external validation to finding solace in the quiet of her own company. As we explore this terrain, we also consider the evolution of childbirth from a natural home process to a highly medicalized event and the impact of obstetric violence on women's experiences. Through it all, we're reminded of the need for kindness and informed support, not just for pregnant women but for all those on the winding path of mental and emotional well-being. The episode wraps with contemplative reflections on legacy and self-acceptance. Carolyn's desire to move beyond the pain of shame in our society serves as a poignant reminder of the power of personal evolution. Her story, from the dizzying heights of city life to the grounding tranquility of village living, encourages us to re-evaluate our values and the very fabric of our daily existence. Join us for an enlightening discussion that transcends beyond breathwork into the realm of personal and societal transformation, all while asking what one universal law we would institute if given the chance.

In this episode of the Peak Performance Selling Podcast, host Jordan Benjamin and Jared Robin, co-founder of RevGenius, delves into the mindset and strategies of successful salespeople and leaders. Jared emphasizes the importance of pushing through challenges while also being in tune with emotions and triggers. He shares his perspective on goal-setting and daily routines, choosing to focus on living life authentically and working hard. The discussion highlights the continuous learning process and how life experiences shape success in both personal and professional realms. Jared also shares his admiration for leaders who exhibit humility, kindness, and a clear direction. Finally, he defines success as finding happiness in the present moment and removing barriers that hinder joy and fulfillment. PEAK PERFORMANCE HIGHLIGHTSSuccess Isn't a Milestone - Jared Robin: "Success isn't a milestone to get to; you're already there. It's removing all the garbage that's causing you from being happy today. Because I'll tell you what, you get to that milestone, you're the same person, maybe more money in your pocket, maybe a bigger house, maybe all that. And I'm not saying that's bad. I'm just saying success to me means being able to enjoy that fully, deeply."The Power of Listening to Yourself - Jared Robin: "Push through and learn, but also listen to yourself because when you push through and something bad happens, listen to how it makes you feel, the emotion that exudes. Ask why, why you're triggered and figure it out and trace it back and integrate it. Bad stuff will happen, but it's minimizing the impact on yourself and being easier on yourself that helps you persevere." You can connect with Jared and check out his work in the links below:LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/jaredrobin/RevGenius: https://www.revgenius.com/ If you're listening to the Peak Performance Selling Podcast, please subscribe, share, and send us your feedback.Jordan Benjamin: https://www.linkedin.com/in/jordanbenjamin/MyCoreOs.com: http://mycoreos.com/Podcast: https://www.mycoreos.com/podcastTwitter: https://twitter.com/jbenj09

In this episode, Lisa and Cathy discuss:Creating a responsible, not perfect, college list. Reconciling what actions parents can do and what is the students' responsiblity.Defining success as a family for better communication. Merit-based and need-based scholarships. Key Takeaways: College is different from when parents were in school than it is now. It is even wildly different just from pre-COVID to post-COVID college admissions. Define success as a family so everyone is communicating in the same language before you begin building your student's college list. Have a budget in mind before your student starts looking at college campuses. There is a mindset around the financial aspect of college education. Think of in-state tuition as your tuition discount. When looking at colleges, establish the emotional parameters, but you can't argue with the data on what the schools are looking for and their institutional priorities.  “It's like many relationships in business, you get the money conversation done, and then you know where to go from there. A lot of parents don't think of it that way because it is an emotional purchase. I've never met a parent that doesn't think their child deserves the absolute best, and so defining best is crucial to the relationship.” – Cathy Copeland TitusAbout Cathy Copeland Titus: Cathy entered the higher education field as the founder and CEO of a multi-platform educational technology company designed to provide university enrollment managers with unique student candidate data. After years of supporting colleges on the yield side of the equation, she exited the company and enrolled in a certification program in admissions at the University of California Davis to begin helping students and families find their best college options.Cathy joined Strategies For College in the spring of 2020 as an Admissions Advisor and continues to manage a small group of students each year.

As we hit the third anniversary of the COVID-19 pandemic, I've invited two guests, Amy Seeley and Cristiana Quinn, to discuss the effects it has had on college admissions. This includes both how students apply to college and how colleges determine who to admit. The last three years have felt like the wild west to those who work with college-bound families, so we know it feels even more so to you. Our conversation details the changes we've made to the advice we share with parents navigating the sometimes-bumpy road of helping their students get into college.EPISODE NOTES:With the rise of test-optional policies, the college admissions process has become more unpredictable for colleges, who are trying to determine which students will be successful on their campus. The average number of applications that students submit has greatly increased since 2020 and therefore colleges are inundated with applications making their job even more challenging.On the college side, dealing with more applicants has made demonstrated interest and yield protection play a bigger role. Each college has a different idea of what they want their freshman class to look like: in-state and out-of-state students, international students, diversity, athletes, and legacy students to fill their roster. These priorities may change yearly based on leadership changes and more.Families and colleges alike are taking more strategic approaches with early action, early decision 1 and 2, and regular decision. Early decision has become more selective since COVID, with acceptance rates dropping and more colleges filling a higher percentage of their seats during early decision. There have been new challenges in securing on-campus housing. It's important to pay close attention to the changing rules around housing and enrollment deposit deadlines. In addition to housing, your family ought to carefully check the admissions and financial aid pages of each school's website for important information about merit aid and other deadlines. Listen in and your family will have expert advice on reducing stress during the application process, minimizing the college list, and engaging with standardized testing despite the prevalence of test-optional policies.LINKS MENTIONED IN THIS EPISODE:Launch College & Career Clarity CourseCollege Admission Advisors, LLCSeeley Test ProsTests and the RestPodcast Episodes Mentioned:#037 ACT-SAT Test Optional Admission Data#042 Will Grade Inflation Hurt Your Teen?#052 Demonstrated Interest: How It Can Help Guide Your College SearchTIMELINE:[00:53] Intro[02:15] Introducing The Episode Guests[02:55] Changes To The College Application Process Post-Covid[04:37] Admissions Changes And Their Causes[05:08] Definition of Yield[07:18] What Drives Yield Protection Efforts[08:21] The Effects of Grade Inflation & Test-Optional Admissions[12:47] How Many Schools a Student SHOULD Apply To[13:49] College Application Best Practices[16:23] Early Decision, Regular Decision & How They Affect Scholarships[23:25] How Admission Fluctuations Affect Housing[25:10] Demonstrated Interest Can Help[26:19] Minimizing Stress Can Help[27:55] Final Thoughts

Teaching has historically been regarded as one of the highest callings. They play a key role in the development of children and provide important information that prepares pupils for life in the real world. In this episode of Morning Meeting, we will talk about discussing sensitive topics with students that are significant in shaping a kid's personality. All about the Guest[05:41] Willy covers gender, race, and LGBTQ+ subjects on Instagram and how we can talk about these topics with three and five-year-olds without breaking the childhood innocence bubble. Book Choices[06:59] The most straightforward way for people to discuss these complex topics is through books. It's been laid out in some books written by people who have lived through these real-life events. [08:16] A graphic circulating demonstrates how diversity was discussed in children's literature in 2018. In those picture books, 50% of the characters were white, 27% were animals or inanimate objects, 10% were black, 7% were Asian Pacific Islander, 5% were Latinx, and 1% were indigenous. [09:43] Matt's experience taking over classes for retired teachers has shown that books that are 40 or 50 years old are complicated to work with. Matt's primary concern when he first started talking about these things was opposition, and people are terrified of that, which keeps them from achieving their goals.Finding a Support System[10:46] When you're going through this, find someone to lean on because it's not easy emotionally. As a result, relying on someone to fall back on when faced with the opposition can only be beneficial. Remember why you're doing this: we're fighting for kids and ourselves.COVID Impact on Schools[15:17] Willy joked on Instagram two months before the outbreak that online learning would never be a thing, only to be forced to do so two months later. What's changed is the direction in which he's focusing his attention. Willy is more concerned with whether a child is wearing a mask or receiving a COVID test and whether everyone is doing everything possible to ensure that he gets the support required in the classroom rather than focusing on his ability to play with children and plan activities.The Ironies of Life[20:10] Matt grew up with a single mother who also happens to be a teacher. He never imagined himself as a teacher as a child because he was well aware that the occupation didn't pay well. After all, the students were underprivileged. Matt made himself helpful at a young age by helping with some household tasks and even cooking meals for himself and his mother. Willy's Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/mrwilly_prek/The Morning Meeting Podcast is a community for early education teachers.
