When it comes to understanding real estate cycles, few voices carry as much weight as Prof. Glenn Mueller, of Denver University. With over 40 years in the real estate industry and more than three decades of publishing the Market Cycle Monitor – used by institutional investors, developers, and academics alike – his data-driven framework is one of the most respected in commercial real estate.   In my conversation with Prof. Mueller, he shared where each property type stands today, what signals matter most, and how CRE professionals should be thinking about the road ahead.   Market Cycle: Where We Are Now Most Property Sectors Still in Growth Phase Despite headlines, the underlying fundamentals in many sectors are still solid. Industrial and retail are at or near peak occupancy, with retail benefiting from a decade of underbuilding. Hotels and some apartments are in expansion phases, while office remains in recession. Office: Structural Downshift, Not Just a Cycle Post-COVID remote work has fundamentally reshaped office demand. Class A in prime markets (e.g., NYC) is thriving; B/C assets and suburban offices are struggling. Adaptive reuse (e.g., office-to-resi conversions) is being explored but not yet widespread. Apartments: Strong Demand, But Misaligned Supply There's a 6.5 million unit housing shortfall, yet high-end, urban supply has overshot demand. Affordable and workforce housing remain undersupplied and present the most attractive opportunities. What CRE Pros Should Track Employment > GDP Mueller emphasizes employment growth as the single most reliable predictor of real estate demand. Despite economic noise, job growth remains positive, indicating continued underlying support for real estate fundamentals. Occupancy Drives Rent, Not Price Mueller's cycle model is based on physical occupancy, not asset pricing. Price movements are driven by capital flows, but true performance comes from rent and income growth – especially critical in today's higher-rate environment. Supply Trends by Sector Retail: Nationally at peak occupancy. Almost all new space is pre-leased. Over a decade of cautious development has created a tight market. Industrial: Slight oversupply after a COVID-era building spree but expected to correct by 2026. Multifamily: Select markets are overbuilt (e.g., downtown Class A), but suburbs and affordable housing show structural undersupply. Hotels: Bifurcated; leisure and conference travel rebounding; business travel still lagging. Capital Markets Insights Prices Are Down, and May Not Drop Further Higher interest rates have cooled pricing, but a wave of dry powder is still waiting. Institutional investors are sitting on capital and may deploy if prices stabilize rather than fall further. Cap Rates Are Rising – But Slowly Cap rates haven't adjusted upward as fast as borrowing costs, leading to negative leverage. Cash buyers dominate today's market. Defaults Without Distress? High-profile institutional owners (e.g., Brookfield) are handing back keys on offices; a sign of strategic exit, not systemic distress. Geopolitics and Macro Outlook Tariffs and Reshoring Could Reshape Demand Mueller sees Trump's industrial policy (tariffs, reshoring) as a potential long-term positive for U.S. real estate, especially industrial. Global Capital Still Engaged, But Cautious Foreign investors remain active, but currency shifts and geopolitical risk are reshaping cross-border flows. Bottom Line for CRE Sponsors Know Your Local Cycle – Even in national downturns, markets like Norfolk, VA, Honolulu, HI, and Riverside, CA, are peaking. Prioritize Income Stability – Focus on tenants who weathered COVID and economic shocks. Watch Employment, Not Noise – Labor market data remains the clearest leading indicator for demand. Cash is King (for now) – With interest rates high and spreads compressed, unlevered buyers have the advantage. Position for Affordability – Whether in retail or multifamily, demand is strongest at the middle and lower price tiers. I'm sure you'll find Glenn's insights as valuable as I did – and be sure to watch the episode as he guides us through slides of his latest report. As always, the goal is to help you make better-informed investment decisions by understanding where we are – and where we might be headed.   *** In this series, I cut through the noise to examine how shifting macroeconomic forces and rising geopolitical risk are reshaping real estate investing.   With insights from economists, academics, and seasoned professionals, this show helps investors respond to market uncertainty with clarity, discipline, and a focus on downside protection.    Subscribe to my free newsletter for timely updates, insights, and tools to help you navigate today's volatile real estate landscape.

I always say that this Thursday to Sunday run of the conference tournaments and the Selection Show is the best four-day stretch of every lacrosse season. Teams have spent the last year working toward this, only the best teams are playing, every game is meaningful and the familiarity of playing conference rivals a second time begs for potential drama.

In this episode of Change Leader Insights, Jessica Crow speaks with Rich Steele, a technology leader with 25+ years of experience driving project delivery and transformational change, about leveraging artificial intelligence (AI) and change. As the Enterprise AI Practice Leader at Execution Specialists Group (ESG), Rich guides clients through strategic planning, implementation, and optimization, harnessing the full potential and promise of AI and other technologies to accelerate growth, transform operations, and empower employee and customer experiences. Previously, Rich was the Director of the Central Portfolio Management Office at Charles Schwab and has held senior leadership roles at DaVita Healthcare Partners and JPMorgan Chase. He is also on the AI Advisory Board for Denver University, has presented at the Gartner PMO Symposium, and has been a guest speaker at Syracuse University and the Colorado School of Mines. During the conversation, Jessica asked Rich what questions organizations should ask when implementing AI. Says Rich, “The first question to ask is fundamentally, ‘Where are you trying to go? What problems do you have? What do you want to be when you grow up?' There's this tendency to want to jump on the bandwagon. AI's implications on your company, culture, and business processes can be huge. It's important to be intentional about where you're trying to go.” Highlights from the conversation include: ☑️ A brief history of AI and the expected impacts on the global economy ☑️ An overview of what organizations should consider when implementing AI to make it a lasting success for their teams ☑️ Advice for preparing for a future state in which humans collaborate with AI to do their jobs If you want to learn more about AI and change, be sure to tune in and hear what Rich has to say!

He's a 1974 Colorado College grad and Mitt Romney's former presidential chief strategist when Romney was the GOP nominee defeated by incumbent President Obama.   Relive all the Colorado moments along the way including when Mitt Romney suffered a pixie dust (glitter) attack in Denver's Auraria complex. A CU-Denver student was the perpetrator. https://www.cbsnews.com/colorado/news/man-who-threw-glitter-at-romney-regrets-threatening-candidates-security/   Learn behind-the-scenes details about Mitt Romney's 10/3/12 dominant Denver University debate performance when he challenged President Obama and staggered the incumbent with his skill.

We also discuss the upcoming presidential debate between Trump and Biden. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KfaBRyCKRhk   Stuart Stevens, a key figure in the Lincoln Project, is dedicated to defeating Donald Trump and the authoritarian threat he poses. His unique perspective on Trump's campaign, which he analogizes to a paper bag holding water, provides a fascinating insight. https://lincolnproject.us/bios/stuart-stevens/   Stevens has authored "It Was All a Lie: How the Republican Party Became Donald Trump" and "The Conspiracy to End America: Five Ways My Old Party Is Driving Democracy to Autocracy." Stevens has a brilliant way of seeing things and he's seen the collapse of the Republican Party into dangerous Trumpism. https://www.amazon.com/Books-Stuart-Stevens/s?rh=n%3A283155%2Cp_27%3AStuart+Stevens   Stevens provides the way out with a discussion of national security Democrats.

In this Better Satellite World podcast series, we ask the question: “What would you do if you had the power to make the world a better place during your career?” Joining SSPI's Lou Zacharilla to answer that question in the fourth episode are 2 members of the “20 Under 35” cohort of 2023: Aysha Alharam, Acting Head of Satellite Design and Development at the Bahrain National Space Science Agency and Laura Cummings, Regulatory Affairs Counsel at Astroscale U.S. Aysha Alharam is the current Acting Head of Satellite Design and Development for the National Space Science Agency (NSSA) of Bahrain. She began her career in 2018 when she was selected as one of the nine first members of the Bahrain Space Team, a position that had over 4,000 other applicants. As the first Bahraini space engineer leading the team, Aysha served as project manager, idea innovator and software developer for the “Aman” payload project, which won the prestigious Payload Hosting Initiative – organized by the United Nations Office of Outer Space Affairs (UNOOSA) and Mohammed Bin Rashid Space Center (MBRSC) in 2022 – out-competing space agencies, companies, universities and research centers from over 100 countries. The Aman payload project showcases Eng, which focuses on securing satellite data through a novel cybersecurity encryption algorithm based on FPGA and parallel processing technology. Aysha personally developed the idea of the AI-based image processing system that will be onboard the first Bahraini satellite, “AlMunther,” the first of its kind in the Middle East region. She completed her education with two Masters degrees, one in Electrical and Computer Engineering with a concentration in space technology from Khalifa University in the UAE and one in Information Technology and Computer Science from the University of Bahrain. Laura Cummings is Regulatory Affairs Counsel for Astroscale U.S., a position in which she is responsible for identifying and helping to create the regulatory framework to authorize In-Orbit Servicing, Assembling and Manufacturing (ISAM) for spacecrafts such as Astroscale's Life Extension In-Orbit (LEXI) missions. These satellite missions require knowledge and expertise in multiple legal frameworks, orbital regimes and technical innovations, with only a handful of precedents that can be considered examples by regulators. In addition to her work on the ISAM regulatory framework, Laura represents Astroscale U.S. in a variety of industry associations, including the Commercial SmallSat Spectrum Management Association (CSSMA) – of which she is President and a Board Member – and the Consortium for the Execution of Rendezvous and Servicing (CONFERS), where she helps the industry to shape policies and communications standards for ISAM missions. Before joining Astroscale U.S., she served as a Regulatory Intern at SES Satellites and a FAA Legal Honors Intern at the Federal Aviation Administration. Laura received her Bachelor of Arts in International Regulations and Affairs, Astronomy from the University of Colorado Boulder, her Doctor of Law in Space Law and International Law from the University of Denver – Sturm College of Law and her Juris Doctor in Space Law from Georgetown University Law Center. While earning her degrees, she held major roles in the Space Law Society at both Georgetown University Law Center, where she served as Vice President and then President, and at Denver University, where she served as Executive Director.

Megan (guitar, mandolin, and vocals) and Maddie Cody (guitar, clawhammer banjo, vocals, and primary songwriting) have been joined at the hip as siblings for their entire lives. They started playing guitar together when their dad introduced them to the instrument when Maddie was six and Megan was eight. Soon after, they performed their first show at a local coffee shop, and they've been playing ever since. Their dad used to play bass with them, but a few years ago, once they went to college, the duo met Will Pavilonis, a jazz bass major at Denver University. From there, The Cody Sisters as they are now were formed.

If you are in the Equine Assisted World and you have not yet hear of the Institute for Human and Animal Connection at Denver University, then you should. The institute - one of the first to really get academics behind the work we all do with horses and people (and not just horses) paved the way for real careers in the field, and through its research and collaborations had brought a much needed scientific legitimacy to what was once disregarded as mere 'playing with ponies'.At the helm of the Institute is the amazing Nina Ekolhm Fry. Originally from Finland - indeed from the minority of Swedish Speaking Finns, she grew up with horses in the northern European tradition but also began working early in her career with the Red Cross and humanitarian aid, so the combination of horses with compassion based healing work comes was established early on.Nina has a fascinating story - how she came to the usa and began exploring the many equine assisted programs on offer while developing programs at Prestcott College in Arizona and then at Denver, and helping to develop the field into a globally recognised therapeutic modality, including the work of HETI (Horses in education and Therapy International) in which she is a prime mover. So if you don't yet know her, meet Nina now, and you'll realise how much we all owe to her pioneering work, as how far - thanks to those like her - we have all come.

What you'll learn in this episode:   How art history and jewelry history interact How Jan's experience as a historian helped her write her first book, and what she learned from self-publishing Why sweetheart jewelry became popular during World War II, and why few people today know what it is How Jan draws on her theater background to connect with and educate museum goers How museum education and jewelry history developed into their own fields   About Jan Krulick-Belin   Jan Krulick-Belin, a museum and art consultant and art and jewelry historian, has more than forty years of experience at such institutions as the Corcoran Gallery of Art, Denver Art Museum, Beaumont (Texas) Art Museum, and Smithsonian Institution. Retired as director of education at the Phoenix Art Museum, she still works with museums, art organizations, and private collectors and served as guest curator at the Sylvia Plotkin Judaica Museum, Phoenix.   Additional Resources  Facebook: www.facebook.com/JanKrulick Website: www.jankrulick.com Amazon: www.amazon.com/author/jankrulickbelin Twitter: @JanKrulickBooks   Photos Available on TheJewelryJourney.com    Transcript As an art and jewelry historian and museum educator, Jan Krulick-Belin was uniquely qualified to follow the surprising journey she went on to write her first book, “Love, Bill: Finding my Father Through Letters from World War II.” Bringing together her knowledge of World War II-era culture and  her research skills, writing the book was a labor of love. She joined the Jewelry Journey Podcast to talk about her tips for self-publishing; what sweetheart jewelry is and why it became so popular during World War II; and what it was like to be at the forefront of the museum education field. Read the episode transcript here.  Sharon: Hello, everyone. Welcome to the Jewelry Journey Podcast. This is the second part of a two-part episode. If you haven't heard part one, please head to TheJewelryJourney.com.    One of the eternal questions is whether one has to be a jewelry historian to appreciate the background of jewelry. Do you have to be a jeweler to appreciate jewelry? My guest, Jan Krulick-Belin, can answer all our questions. Welcome back.    Jan: I've had people come up to me and show me stuff they've had, that their mothers or grandmothers or aunts had and left, and they didn't know what it was. I said, “Well, that's a piece of sweetheart jewelry.” They had no idea what it was. DUPLICATION OF END OF PART ONE.   Sharon: That's interesting. Is it a more contemporary thing? Do they call it sweetheart jewelry?   Jan: It is still known as sweetheart. There are a handful of books that have been written. Off the top of my head, I can't remember some of the authors, but there are not very many. I've seen people who will do lectures or write about jewelry from different periods of the 20th century. They will mention it during the 1940s. They will talk a little bit about sweetheart jewelry and jewelry made during the war.    In terms of writing books just on sweetheart jewelry, there are very few out there, but if you go to a bunch of different sources and learn about what was happening in the fashion world during the war, that will come up. You'll learn about rationing and the War Bureau and all their rules and regulations. It was interesting that Marcus of Nieman Marcus was actually head of the War Production Board and came up with all these rationing roles for fashion. If you start delving into different areas, you'll be able to pick up little bits and pieces and put it together.   Sharon: That's interesting. People don't know what it is. The other thing that interested me when I was reading about you was the fact that you were in only the third museum education class.   Jan: Yeah, I know. I feel ancient. I was in the class of 1978—that gives it all away, doesn't it?—in grad school. It was the very first program of its kind in the country where you got a master's degree in museum education. It was started by the professor I referred to, Dr. Marcella Brenner, who was an incredible woman. She was in the education field, but she married Morris Louis, who was an important abstract-expressionist artist. So, she was part of the art world, and she noticed that in museums, there was a lot of stuff going on that wasn't very helpful to the general visitor.    Usually, people who developed materials or wrote the labels on the walls came from an academic or scholarly curatorial background. A lot of what they wrote was for their peers and the general public didn't understand it. She felt that there needed to be a combination of people who are familiar with art—or whatever museum you'd go work in, because it was a multidisciplinary program, whether you worked in a science museum or a history museum. But the illness was the same no matter what museum you'd go to, and she felt it was important to teach people not just the background of the field and the type of museum they wanted to go into, but to understand how people learn in a museum setting and how to teach and how to communicate. She developed this program at George Washington University in the education department, and I was in the third graduating class of that program. We were newbies and the field was just forming.    I had a couple of mentors, one who I worked with in Denver and who I consider the first generation of museum educators. I'm stuck in the second generation of museum educators because we came along and solidified certain things within the field that really made it a field. My goal was to work with curators and other museum professionals, even designers, and help them understand how people go through a museum, understand what happens and how to communicate without patronizing. I think that's the fine line. You don't want to talk down to people. My goal is to teach people how to look, what to look at. We're born to see, but we're not born knowing how to look carefully or knowing what to look for or what to look at. I think that notion carries through into my art history as well as my jewelry history. It's getting people to look and think based on what they see and getting them curious enough to go further with the information.    Sharon: Do you find that you teach adults differently in looking? If they have a piece of jewelry, does an adult look at it differently?   Jan: I think there's definitely a difference between teaching adults and children, especially in a museum setting. Just as if you were a teacher of any subject, you're either an elementary school teacher or not. I feel more comfortable talking to high schoolers or adults. I think adults like more information. As part of my jobs over the years, I was always in charge of training the docents or the volunteer guides to work with school groups or adult groups.    I can tell you in evaluations, I overheard a lot of things I would cringe at. When you've got a group of fifth graders and somebody's sitting there lecturing nonstop about the history of X, Y, Z, and it was related to the surrealist movement, these kids don't know that. You start with what they see. Describe what they're looking at and ask, “What do you think this might be about?” or “How are you reacting to this?” I found, particularly in an art museum setting—and I think a little bit in the jewelry world too—quite often, if people don't have the background, you have to start where people are. You have to very slowly give information and be very careful explaining any new terms.    One of my minors as an undergraduate was also theater, so when I worked with children in a museum setting, I incorporated a lot of theater. It wasn't unusual for me. Everybody used to think it was unusual, crazy, whatever. I would teach whole art history classes in period costume. We created things we called art carts, which were trunks for the fashion and costume collection. In the Beaumont Museum, I had a huge armoire with things hanging in it and different samples of textiles so people could see and touch and feel. That's the opening; being dramatic. When I was in Denver, I also got a big National Endowment for the Humanities grant to teach art history classes to kids in the galleries using real objects. Again, I conned a lot of my professor friends at Denver University to come in costume and teach as if they were a historical figure. I think adults like that too. I think they're a little taken aback at first, but who doesn't enjoy something like that? I think they all love theater a little bit.    As far as jewelry, I don't know that I've ever worked with kids in talking about jewelry. It wasn't part of what I was doing back then, and I haven't worked with kids very much in the last 20 years or so. All of my teaching is with adults, but I think you have to start where they are, find out what they know. I think kids—and, believe me, a lot of adults; you'd be surprised—don't have those hooks that some of us take for granted, like understanding the stories of the Bible or knowing basic history. All those things come into play when you're talking about art history or jewelry history or any kind of history. People just don't have that knowledge base anymore. You sometimes really have to start from the ground level and figure out what your audience knows and then go from there.    Sharon: From the jewelry history you have taught, from when you taught kids, would you say that boys say “Yuck” to a heart and a girl might be attracted?   Jan: Maybe. Again, I've never had that experience. Anytime you're teaching any audience, you have to find the hook you think will make sense. We used to laugh when you're working with kids in school because the grosser you can get, the better you get to the boys. It's sort of the same thing. If you're showing them a diamond brooch—and I'm pulling this out of thin air since I've never had to do this—you ask, “Where do you think these things come from?” and you can talk about how diamonds are formed. You can get excited and scientific about it in a simple way, then you can get them hooked. Or you say, “Do you know that men used to wear more jewelry than women?” You just go where you think you will grab them. That's with any audience, but you have to think quick on your feet with kids to figure out what's going to catch their attention. That's why I used to use theater a lot, because they can't ignore you when you're dressed in a Victorian corset with a long dress and you're talking about Victorian paintings or the wild west or cowboy art. You go with what you've got.   Sharon: What made you decide to go into this area? I would have been a little hesitant to go into such a new area.   Jan: It was interesting. As an art history major, when I graduated as an undergraduate, I wasn't sure what I wanted to do next. I knew I didn't want to pursue and get into the Ph.D. track. I'm more of a people person and not a lone researcher. I really didn't know what my options were. I tried to apply for internships around the country at art museums. I always felt very comfortable growing up in New York City. Going into an art museum was something we did. I didn't get any internships, except I did get one finally. It was an offer from the Smithsonian, but it was from the Department of Performing Arts. They noticed that I also had a theater degree, a minor. So, that's how it started.   I was working for a wonderful woman who was really encouraging me. That was 1976, and it was the Festival of American Folklife on the Mall in D.C. It was big; it was a bicentennial year. This was normally a two-week folklife festival that happened every summer, but this was now all summer. We were talking, and she asked me, “What do you want to do?” and I said, “I have no idea once this is over.” She said, “Well, I know a couple of people who are starting this new graduate program over at GW, and it sounds like everything you've done. You were a camp counselor. You like to be around kids. You love theater. You love art. This sounds up your alley.”    I had no idea what museum education was, nor did most people, actually, and I wasn't ready to go to grad school. Then, after a year of knocking around and not being able to find a decent job, I applied, and there you go. It's funny how things happen. I don't say it was an accident because maybe I was on a path. I know that was the path I was on, but it was just something new, and it fit. When I started looking into the program, it was just the right amount of time where I could finish a degree, and I was already living in Washington, D.C. at that point, so it was perfect.    Sharon: Based on all that and from everything you've told us, what is your favorite period of jewelry?   Jan: That's a tough one. I'm an equal opportunity jewelry lover, everything from fine to vintage and costume. I do have a soft spot for Art Deco jewelry. I do like that, but coming from my background as a museum educator, I wasn't supposed to specialize in one period because I had to work with every exhibition that came along. I had to be a fast study and cram. I had to be a good generalist, and I had to be knowledgeable enough so I could communicate with curators in their areas of specialty so they would respect my body of knowledge. I think I've always felt like I needed to be knowledgeable about every area.    I get to specialize when I do a particular lecture. That's when I can do a deep dive: when I'm preparing a talk in a specific jewelry area. I like all different time periods for different reasons, but it's probably the one I just finished researching.   Sharon: You wrote that if you have another book, you'll be able to rectify the mistakes you made in the first one.   Jan: I didn't know how you even begin writing a book and how you go about getting it published and all of that. I've learned a lot since then, believe me; the good, the bad and the ugly, and all the little things. I didn't know you're supposed to find the endorsements for the back of your book even before it goes to the designer, or even making decisions about what color paper or what font. I had to know all the practical sides of publishing and making a book happen strictly because I self-publish, but with a company I worked with to make it all happen. I didn't know how important social media was, which I never wanted to get involved with. That was a lot of the learning curve.    I had to be more knowledgeable about how to go about picking the people to work with because I literally went in blind. I just didn't know. I went to one conference locally when I thought about putting this into a book. I made notes, and fortunately I found a local lawyer who was a copyright attorney. He helped me deal with that. Now, I know all that stuff, which is probably a bad thing because I know enough that I don't know if I want to go through this again. It's hard. It's really hard. I don't care what people tell you. If you go with a traditional publisher, there are goods and bads. If you go with self-publishing, there are goods and bads. I always said, when things started happening, I just wanted to write a book; that's all I wanted. I was like, “I've got to jump through these hurdles and hoops.”    I had a bad experience with the first publisher of my book, and it was very painful. Fortunately, now it's back out there with a different publisher, but it was a hard lesson to learn when your publisher goes AWOL and takes all your digital files and scams you out of all your royalties for two years. It's ugly. I'm not the only person this has ever happened to, I'm sure, but it kind of burns you. I think that's why when people say, “Are you going to write a new book?” I was hesitant to answer. I just don't know if after all that, I wanted to go through anything like that again. But hopefully I've learned. I know more people and I can reach out to more people to put me on a different path than what I went on last time.    Sharon: It sounds like a very interesting subject. I don't know about writing a whole book.   Jan: You're lucky.    Sharon: I'm anxious to read it. Besides the diamonds, do you have anything else rolling around? What else do you have?   Jan: I think the reason the book got written is because it was such an emotional, important, personal story. It was cathartic for me to go through this and work out the emotions I've had for my entire life, growing up without a father and knowing so little about who he was. When I finished that—I laugh because literally, the book wasn't even hot off the press when people started asking, “What's your next book?” It's like, “Can I please enjoy this one? It's taken five-and-a-half years out of my life, from not even thinking I'd write a book to getting it to the editor, thank you very much.” I always said if I wrote another one, the idea and the need to write it would have to be as gripping for me.    Like I said earlier, I knew with first book that I couldn't stop my brain from racing at two in the morning. I would have these ideas, and these thoughts and sentences would pop into my head. I would have organizational ideas in the middle of the night and they wouldn't let me go. So, that would have to happen if I'm going to write another book. It has to be needing to come out. I have to get excited about it and I have to be invested in it. I'm getting closer. It depends on what's happening in my life.    I'm still lecturing and doing things like that, but I've done a bunch of research trips. I have a couple more planned than I probably need to do, just to fill in my head. The hard thing is I'm thinking of a jewelry historical fiction. I'm not a fiction writer. I'm a non-fiction writer. I'm a historian. Trying to figure out how I can blend the history side of me and the truths with a little bit of fiction and make it all work, that's why I'm struggling so much moving past where I am right now. I'm not sure how to do this. I know a wonderful, exciting history about this particular diamond. I know who owned it from one point to the last point we know it existed. It's filling in the before and the after and the middle. How do you do all that?    I haven't had another idea that's as compelling to me. I think this particular diamond has been on my mind since the very first jewelry history lecture I've ever written. I can't let it go. It's stuck to me and I can't shake it off. That's why, if it's another book, it probably will have to be this one, because it's the only thing I can't shake off.    Sharon: It sounds very interesting. I want to thank you for being with us today. We really appreciate it.   Jan: My pleasure.   Sharon: We will have photos posted on the website. Please head to TheJewelryJourney.com to check them out.   Thank you again for listening. Please leave us a rating and review so we can help others start their own jewelry journey.  

On this episode of Melody and Friends, Melody is speaking with Author Sharon Hersh to speak about Ambivalence and The Holidays. Sharon defines what ambivalence around the holidays looks like and how ambivalence has affected her personally during the holiday season. The Christmas season especially will often highlight a tail of two emotions, one of bright, joyous emotions as we celebrate with our family and one of somberness and grief for tragedies that have happened. She also breaks down that emotional low we can experience after the highs of celebrating the holidays has passed and what we can do to work through those feelings of ambivalence. Sharon also shares how we can attune our hearts to the love of Christ each Christmas as we walk through those feelings of ambivalence. She explains we have to have an invitational heart that give myself permission to keep healing and admit that we need to keep healing. Who is Sharon Hersh? Sharon is a sought-after speaker for conferences, retreats, seminars, classes, trainings, or workshops. She loves to speak any where in the world — to a group of 2 or 2,000.  Sharon taught as Adjunct Faculty at Reformed Theological Seminary, Colorado Christian University, Denver Seminary, Denver University, Metropolitan State University of Denver, and The Seattle School of Theology & Psychology in both under-graduate and graduate counseling courses.  Other subjects Sharon loves to speak on include the courage to abandon ourselves and belong to each other; addiction and life beyond addiction; finding the landmarks of faith, hope, and love in our stories; knowing your sexual ethic – for adolescents, adults, and parents; healing trauma, and self-compassion for caregivers.

Things We Talk About In This Episode: What is ambivalence and what does it look like around the holidays? Why do we not do well with dual feelings and what can we do about it? Why is creating an invitational heart so important for ambivalence during the holidays? How can we allow things to change in our lives in a way that doesn't creat ambivalence around Christmas? We encourage you to check out Sharon's books The Last Addiction (www.barnesandnoble.com/w/last-addiction-sharon-hersh/1100618546) and Belonging (www.christianbook.com/belonging-finding-way-back-one-another/sharon-hersh/9781631469602/pd/469606) Our listeners can also learn more about Sharon's resources, books and much more at the link here: www.sharonhersh.com Thank you so much for listening to this episode of Melody and Friends!
