In this episode of “Building the Premier Accounting Firm,” Roger Knecht interviews executive coach and author Robert Hunt about accountability, intentional living, and the traits of successful CEOs. Hunt shares personal stories and actionable advice to help accounting professionals and business owners improve their businesses and personal lives. Key Takeaways: Model accountability to foster a culture where employees take ownership. Distinguish between responsibility (fixing problems) and accountability (proactive creation). Acknowledge reality, embrace challenges, find solutions, and make them happen. Create margin in your life to avoid overload in time, finances, health, and emotions. Be intentional about living the life you want, aligning actions with values and goals. Featured Quotes: Robert Hunt: “The simplest definition of accountability is you own it.” Robert Hunt: “There is no such thing as work-life balance… Let's work on being one person everywhere.” Robert Hunt: “Don't be lazy… If you know you're supposed to be doing something and you're not doing it, you're lazy.” Behind the Story: Robert Hunt candidly shares his journey from financial distress to debt-free living by selling his house and embracing a new mindset. This personal transformation underscores the importance of accountability and intentionality, which he now imparts to CEOs and business owners. His experiences highlight the power of owning one's situation and proactively creating a better future.

This conversation provides a comprehensive overview of products liability law, focusing on its significance in consumer safety and corporate responsibility. It explores the foundational legal theories, types of defects (manufacturing, design, and warning), and the defenses available to manufacturers. The discussion also highlights the importance of causation in linking defects to harm, landmark cases that shaped the field, and emerging issues in the context of modern technology. The conversation concludes with a reflection on the policy debates surrounding strict liability and the journey of a products liability lawsuit.Distinguish between negligence and strict liability in product liability claims.Negligence focuses on the defendant's fault, requiring proof that they failed to exercise reasonable care in the product's design, manufacture, or warning. Strict liability, conversely, does not require proving fault; it holds a seller liable if the product is simply "defective and unreasonably dangerous" when it left their control.Explain the primary difference between a design defect and a manufacturing defect.A design defect exists when a product's fundamental blueprint or structure makes it inherently unsafe, impacting all units made according to that design, even if manufactured perfectly. A manufacturing defect, however, results from an error during the production process, causing a specific product or batch to deviate from the intended design.What is the "duty to warn" in product liability, and what kind of risks does it typically cover?The duty to warn requires manufacturers to provide reasonable warnings about non-obvious dangers associated with their products. This duty extends to inherent dangers, foreseeable misuses, and potential side effects, ensuring users are informed of risks they cannot easily perceive.Briefly describe the "Risk-Utility Test" used in evaluating design defects.The Risk-Utility Test is a cost-benefit analysis that assesses whether the probability and seriousness of harm caused by a product's design outweigh the burden or costs of implementing a safer alternative design. If the risks are found to outweigh the utility or the cost of a safer design, the product may be deemed defective.How does the "Assumption of the Risk" defense function in a product liability case?This defense asserts that the plaintiff, by voluntarily encountering a known risk, agreed to assume the risk of injury. To succeed, the defendant must prove the plaintiff had a subjective awareness of the specific risk and deliberately chose to proceed with the risky conduct.Provide an example of when the "Substantial Change Defense" might be raised by a manufacturer.A manufacturer might raise the substantial change defense if a consumer modifies a product, like removing a safety guard from a power tool, and then suffers an injury. The manufacturer would argue that the injury was caused by this unforeseeable alteration, not by an inherent defect in the original product.What is the significance of Greenman v. Yuba Power Products, Inc. in the history of product liability law?Greenman v. Yuba Power Products, Inc. is a landmark case that established the principle of strict liability in tort for defective products in California. This ruling fundamentally shifted the legal landscape, allowing consumers to hold manufacturers liable for defects regardless of negligence, thereby laying the foundation for modern product liability claims.When might "federal preemption" be a successful defense in a product liability claim?Federal preemption can be a successful defense when a federal statute explicitly or implicitly governs the manufacture and distribution of a product and the product complies with those federal laws. For example, if a drug's labeling strictly adheres to FDA regulations and a state law claim alleges inadequate warnings, federal preemption might bar the state claim.

According to research from Gartner, 77% of sellers report that they struggle to complete their assigned tasks efficiently. So, how can enablement help cut through the noise and maximize rep efficiency to drive business results? Riley Rogers: Hi, and welcome to the Win-Win podcast. I’m your host, Riley Rogers. Join us as we dive into changing trends in the workplace and how to navigate them successfully. Here to discuss this topic is Kim Engebretson, manager of sales enablement at Protegrity. Thank you so much for joining us, Kim. We’re super excited to have you here. As we get started, I’d love if you could just run us through yourself, your background and your role. Great. Thanks Kim Engebretson: Riley. I’m happy to be here and excited as well. So, as you mentioned, I’m the manager of sales enablement at Protegrity. Which is a data-centric security company, which is part of the cybersecurity industry. I’ve actually been in sales ops and enablement for more than 25 years of my career over a host of different industries, most of which was in medical devices than telecommunication, and that ultimately brought me here to Protegrity. But I would have to say that my earliest career back in aerospace and defense really contributed to my love of sales enablement because I learned about manufacturing processes, project management, and I always take that lens of a process when I bring it to looking at a sales process to say, can we refine it? Is it the most efficient? Are there things that we can do? So always using a continuous improvement mindset. So it’s really been fundamental in how I approach most of my sales enablement projects. RR: Amazing. Thank you for that background. I love the thorough experience that kind of leads you to where you are today, and it’s part of the reason that we’re super excited to have you today is you bring a really well-informed perspective to the table and looking at your background, it’s clear that you have extensive experience, not only as an enablement leader, but in all of the different skills that make a strong enablement leader. So as the enablement landscape has kind of continued to evolve over the years, I’m curious how you’ve seen. The challenges go to market teams face evolve, and then maybe what you’re seeing is the most pressing today. KE: Yes. Well, as I mentioned, with having a pretty long career thus far, I’ve come through a couple major milestones. The introduction of the internet, digital transformation. I mean, I was in sales enablement when people had to call in a paper order was processed. So as you can mention, this is a big evolution that we’ve moved to such automation, such efficiency, and so from a go to market perspective, sales hasn’t changed. From the standpoint that a seller must know their product and service, they must bring value to the table so that the customer really perceives them as adding value and being a consultant, being a partner, and making the right business decision. But what has changed dramatically, even in the last five years and is continuing to move at an amazing pace, is that buyers don’t really wanna engage with the seller until it’s much further along in the process. So the buying cycle is still a pretty long period of time, but the sales cycle when the customer and the seller engage is really much further down the pipeline than it normally was. So from a go-to market perspective, our sellers have to know that and know what assets, what webinars, what podcasts, what materials has the prospective customer engage with through their self discovery. And it really precedes ai. But this desire to say, let me educate myself in what’s available before I start talking to a prospective vendor. And from that standpoint. When we do have that first engagement, it’s got to be solid. It’s got to be really a opportunity where we distinguish ourselves from the other vendors that that prospect or customer might be thinking about talking to. RR: Yeah, I think that’s certainly a common challenge that a lot of businesses are seeing, and I think that need to be agile, to be effective, to be efficient in that moment where you’re allowed as a seller, to have that first touch with a buyer is so crucial. I know that kind of as a solution to that. Sales efficiency is kind of a key priority for you. So can you maybe talk us through why sales efficiency is a priority and then how you’re focusing on that and what initiatives you’re using to help you achieve it? KE: Sure. So understanding the prospect. So we have a really strong demand gen organization that is trying to provide leads or prospective leads to our sales team, but that still requires that our sellers really get to know again, who that company is. What industry are they working in? Who are the decision makers? There’s a considerable amount of research and data accumulation that has to take place so that, again, when that seller has that first opportunity, that phone call, that business meeting, that they come prepared. And I believe that customers also expect. That individual to come already knowing quite a bit about them, because again, we work under this kind of accelerated cycle. And so the efficiency part is how do we assemble all that information, how do we synthesize it? And then simultaneously using things like our business use cases, our understanding of the industry, how do we prepare our seller so that they’re not having to do that all on their own? We are providing them those materials and resources so that they can, again, bring their best, you know, representation for that first meeting. So there’s a lot of pressure on that first call, but I think the sales efficiency is building all around, making our sellers. Informed. Knowledgeable and impactful. RR: Yeah, definitely. I think thinking about that sales efficiency and all the support levers that you’re pulling to help sellers drive it, I’d like to maybe talk about enablement technology and how you’re using that to create efficiency. I know you actually switched off of a previous enablement platform and moved to Highspot just recently last year, so I’d love if you could talk us through maybe what motivated the change, how you reevaluated, and then what that process was like. KE: Absolutely. I joined Peg in June of last year and it just so happened the sales enablement platform we were using was coming up for an annual renewal. So there was a natural event that said, you know, I’m new in the role. I was given a new responsibility of sales enablement, so let me test. Whether or not we had the right product, right tool for what we needed. And so I went out and spoke to pretty much the top three or four companies giving our current vendor every opportunity to also come forward and demonstrate what they had that perhaps we weren’t utilizing in that system. So it was really about were there things that we weren’t using, not optimizing in the system. And it was through that process that really Highspot. Distinguish themselves, and I just emphasized that first meeting being so important and really our account executive came prepared, had done some research, was sharing with us ideas that we hadn’t had, even though I had researched all the vendors independently myself, and so they stood out. And that continued through the next engagement and the next engagement. And as the account executive brought in other resources from Highspot through the solutions team, everybody came prepared and demonstrated to me an interest. They were interested in what we needed and they wanted to showcase how they thought the Highspot solution could meet the business needs that we defined. And that really just. Changed the kind of trajectory. So it was up for our incumbent to really lose the business, and unfortunately they did because they didn’t really fight hard enough to sustain it. And again, across the vendors, a lot of common functionality. But it was the way. That the Highspot team was able to really demonstrate what did they think that their solution could do that would be different? And it was, uh, a couple things. Digital rooms. It was the close integration with Salesforce. Were, were really two of the key decision makers, the decisions for us. RR: Wonderful. Well, I first of all am so happy to hear that you had such a fantastic experience with our team, and I think that, you know, kind of speaks to the value of enablement in the work that you do of. How else are you getting sellers ready to deliver these experiences? And then also congratulations on one year. Super exciting. Just past that mark. So gotta call that out. I’d love to know maybe drilling a little bit further into that process of switching. So when you switch an enablement tech stack, what maybe are some of the best practices that you would share for managing that change and empowering reps through that transition? Because I know that’s probably not an easy process. KE: Agreed. That’s probably the biggest challenge with any technology transition is implementation and then change management. So from the implementation side, again, I think Highspot had a great enablement support where the project plan was clear. The kickoff was good. I did have a partner at the time who was working with me on the transition so that I was able to focus on the enablement side. The other person was able to focus on the content. Implementation. So I would say having a good project team internally was really important because you really wanna have people who can focus on the different elements of that transition. But the thing I also focused on was ensuring that our sales leaders really understood why we’re making the change. That they were also helping to articulate the business decision and the value. And then it all came down to just communication, really keeping the sales team well informed why we were making the change, what were some exciting things they could look forward to. And then once we made the change, supporting them through multiple hands-on sessions. So that they could get familiar with the system. And so I was doing, you know, weekly sessions, small group sessions, really to make sure people understood the new navigation, how to find the resources. And then, uh, the big one was introducing the digital rooms. So it was really just about. Change management 1 0 1, communicate, implement, and support. RR: Yeah. Amazing. I think changes in the tech stack are a pretty common scenario that you’ll encounter, but I feel like there’s not so much in the way of guidance or best practices out there for how to do it, so thank you so much for sharing that. I’d love to know, maybe just one more question on this topic, in your opinion. What is the advantage of an enablement platform? How does it help you with sales efficiency? And then maybe a little bit, if you can, share about how switching to Highspot helped you amplify that advantage. KE: Sure. So we were using multiple resources. Our tech stack is pretty, I should say, it’s either deep or wide, whichever way you want to define it, but the ability to compress and integrate. To demonstrate a seamless experience, whether you’re using Highspot through Outlook or through Salesforce or teams, but trying to minimize that feeling of a seller going to multiple systems to achieve something. And more importantly, we have our collateral, our marketing content. We have product information, we have sales process information. We have the ability to collect how to information. And so by putting that all into one system, that’s easy to navigate. Is also giving that seller that kind of efficiency, which is if they have confidence that they can come into one system, quickly, find the answer to the question, whether it’s, how do I, what’s the next step? Particularly for things which maybe they don’t do on a high frequency basis. So they need to come back to how to find that resource. Previously, you know, it was all via SharePoint, which it definitely has some value. But now being able to put everything kind of into one basket, meaning one system, we’re able to provide them, I think a more unified user experience. And then the efficiency of being able to say, I can do multiple things with this one tool that I previously had to go to, maybe three or four different resources, or even people to find the answer to a question. RR: Wonderful. Well, I’m so glad that you’re seeing the degree of success that you are already and that the switch has kind of been a fruitful one. Speaking of some of the work that you and the team have been doing with the platform, we’ve heard that sales plays have been a key lever in helping you improve sales efficiency. So I’d love if you could talk us through how you’re leveraging them to support your sales efficiency initiatives and then how maybe they’re helping you drive. More consistent execution across your sales teams? KE: Yeah, absolutely. So as I mentioned previous to me joining the organization a year ago, we didn’t really have a dedicated sales enablement function. Of course, sales enablement was being delivered by different individuals. And so one of the things that was, you know, my primary objective was improve the onboarding experience and then also help document the processes, or in this case, the sales place. So there really wasn’t a repository or a collection of that. I love the way, it’s what do I need to know, show, say, or do? And I’ve used that so many times, even in my own enablement sessions, because I think that routine, that practice starts to build that understanding of how we break down a sales play. And so first and foremost, brought the right people together through a series of workshops. So that we could create the sales plays. And so the way we started was we used both industry and business use case as the formula for defining the sales plays, and that enabled the team to kind of hyperfocus on for this specific industry and this specific peg use case or solution. How can I define the things that that seller would need to know? And so once we produce a couple of sales plays, that made it a lot easier us for us to template that moving forward. And in fact, that’s all been on the like pre-sales side on winning new business. And now we are moving into building sales plays around the post-sales process about customer onboarding and customer engagement and time to first value. So we’re using those same principles now. Through another portion of the buyer life cycle, so I’m excited to start documenting those processes as well. RR: Amazing. Well, I love to hear that the no say show do structure is so ubiquitous in enablement at Prote. It’s such a useful framework and it really does work. Maybe shifting gears a little bit, besides sales plays, we’ve also heard that you’ve had quite a bit of success, as you mentioned earlier, with things like digital rooms, and you’ve achieved an 83% external share. Adoption rate. So I’d love if you could share some best practices for helping reps regularly use external sharing features, and then maybe how you’re seeing that engage buyers. KE: Digital rooms are by far my favorite. Not only because you can get a little creative, and we’ve created a digital room template for different business use cases or for different customers at the different intervals of where they are in their buyer journey, whether it’s for prospecting or it’s for contract management or responding to a request for proposal. So we look at each one of those buyer seller engagements. As a unique opportunity to define a digital room, and they essentially sold themselves. So I think our sales teams immediately got how valuable these could be compared to, you know, the old school method of emailing customers serially, you know, having to search through your email to find out what was the last communication, looking for resources. And so everybody just really, I think, inherently understood the. Value of a digital room. And again, going back to saying how do we hyper-personalized, how do we customize something for a customer or a prospect, which will help distinguish peg from potentially other vendors that they’re talking to. And in fact, I was onboarding a new solutions engineer just a week or so ago, and when I introduced him to Highspot and the use of digital rooms. The fact that that individual repeated back to me, oh my gosh, I can see the value of this. I was like, alright, you got it. And so I think that it’s not a leap for people to know how valuable digital rooms can be. And the second part of your question is, you know, how did it when the adoption one is, I think there was genuine need in an interest. So those people ran toward it. But I hosted a couple enablement sessions and then. I highlighted the individuals who were doing unique things, they really made their personality stand out in the digital room. They added some stuff that sometimes was funny, you know, or engaging. So using successful sellers to showcase best practices to the rest of the team. I’ve always found that that tends to be more impactful than me sharing my recommendation or even a vendor sharing a recommendation. So when they see another respected seller is doing something and having success with it, then they’re more inclined to say, let me check that out. Let me adopt that practice as well. And so I hosted a enablement session called the Digital Masterclass. Where we took it to, you know, how can we use some higher end functions and features, and I’ll continue to do that as Highspot continues to release some new features and functionality with the digital rooms. RR: Well, I love to hear that, especially I feel like the best part of digital rooms is that they kind of marry, flash and function. So when you can show off a really cool one, everybody’s like, ah, why am I not doing this? And so it seems that’s very much how you’re getting that engine moving. So having heard a little bit about your strategy and the work that you’re doing to drive it, I’d like to know maybe since implementing Highspot, what business results you’ve achieved, any wins, achievements that you’re particularly proud of, programs that you’re running really successfully, that you’d like to share with us. KE: Yes. Well one is, I, I think just the, the adoption rate that you mentioned and the high rate of external shares is indicative of that. The team has adopted this as a, a distinguishing sales function, so that’s one thing. I did take a look at it, and although I can’t give you very specific numbers, I looked at our pipeline from a year ago, you know, year over year, and what I was able to see was double digit growth in both new opportunities created. And new opportunities, not only with existing customers, but what we call net new logos. And so, although there’s other contributing factors, I definitely think that the use of the digital rooms has helped advance the opportunity from say, qualification into then our next opportunity stage. And that’s reflective of the fact that that’s when we say, this is when you now create the digital room. To move a customer from, you know, once we’ve identified there’s a business value that we can deliver to them, is now let’s start to move them into a digital room, start to share more assets and information, which again, can help them inform themselves and be a great place where we can keep a record of recorded meetings, action items, next steps. And it just helps facilitate, you know, the sales process motion and sales tactics. RR: Well, I think. To start. That sounds like you’re making amazing progress and I am sure that’s just reflective of the great work that you’re doing. I really appreciate you walking through kind of that enablement action to then this is how we’re seeing that impact on the outcomes that the business really cares about. And it seems like to your point, the data is reflecting the value of your work. So speaking of kind of seeing that data and being able to. Validate the work that you’re doing. I’ve heard that you’re currently working, as you mentioned on that integration between Salesforce and Highspot. So as you’re making progress on that, I, I’d love to know what value you’re seeing in the integration and then as you’re going, what outcomes you’re hoping to achieve down the line. KE: Yeah, absolutely. So right now we are actually in production. Our integration’s complete. We just haven’t rolled it fully out to the organization. As I continue to fine tune a few things. What I think I’m more excited about now is that it wasn’t how I thought we would be using it. Let me clarify that by saying, you know, floating content, floating recommended sales plays over to the opportunity or from Highspot to Salesforce is. You know, one of the things we expected, but it was a sales operations leader who said, well, can we give them the process guidance as well? And I said, well, sure we can. So this was something that we’ve implemented and we’re now testing out, but this is where I’m also floating over the how to guide, on how to perform the next step. What are the things that you need to do from a Salesforce. Process standpoint as one of the recommended assets. And although we had those materials and we’ve had a lot of how to guides produced in the past, it was always the challenge of somebody going to find the guide at the time that they needed it. And by using the Highspot integration. It is surfaced right there on the opportunity. So it’s literally, you know, look at the opportunity, click on the resource guide, and now we can give them the guidance that they’ve been looking for, or that they maybe stopped doing something and called somebody to get the guidance. So again, I think that highlights the efficiency because we have sellers all around the globe, and we want them to be able to work and not be delayed in what they’re doing because they’re waiting for somebody to answer a question. If they can get the information right when they need it, and again, at the point of use, which in this case would be within Salesforce, within the opportunity. So looking forward to releasing that really in the next, uh, week or so, and I’m sure the team is gonna see the value there as well. RR: Well, I know I, for one, can’t wait to hear about how that goes with the team in the next week. Best of luck to you. But if you’re already finding surprise use cases and additional values popping out at you, I’m sure as sellers are getting in there and using it, you’re gonna find new things pop up that they’re using that you aren’t even expecting. Well, one last question for you before we let you go. For organizations aiming to improve their operational efficiency through an enablement platform. What is maybe one or two pieces of advice you would offer when selecting that tool to partner with? KE: It’s a good question. You know, one, I’m gonna point back to what I said in the beginning, which is really trust, maybe your instinct, which is, if the very initial engagement with a prospective supplier is good, that tends to be somewhat indicative that that business relationship will continue on. If you find that you’re not getting the information. Or you’re struggling to see the value in the tool. It’s not being conveyed to you in a way. That may also be an early indication that, that that could paint how this engagement with that prospective supplier is gonna be so lean into, you know, how does the company represent themselves? Because if they’re successful using an enablement system, it’s gonna be reflected in their own account. Executives do talk to a couple other, uh, referrals. I think it is also helpful. I don’t think a company’s gonna give you a referral that’s not gonna give you a good assessment. But speaking to other companies that are using the product. Particularly if they’re in the same industry, I think is beneficial. And then of course, I would ask to really understand what the implementation plan is. So, and do that early enough when you’re doing the vendor review. Not just what is the product solution, but what is their implementation strategy and plan. How long will it take? And then what is their transition after you have your instance up and running? What are the resources that they provide? And that has also been something that has been really valuable to me, is having the continuing relationship when we transitioned out of our implementation. And then over to the customer support team, CSM. Um, it’s been a good relationship and that’s how we’re continuing to look at how do we leverage the system? How do we continue to optimize Highspot to get the most value out of it? RR: Amazing. Well, I think that’s fantastic advice, and I just have to say thank you again, Kim, for joining us. It’s been so lovely to chat with you and I think we’ve got some great best practices to share with our audience. Really appreciate it. KE: Thanks Riley. I enjoyed being here. RR: To our audience, thank you for listening to this episode of the Win-Win podcast. Be sure to tune in next time for more insights on how you can maximize implement success with Highspot.

This morning, our guest speakers Neil and Janet Young remind us of what truly distinguishes us on this earth. It's not our morality. It's not our brilliance. It is His presence. His presence — always available, always near. Whether it's a Monday morning at work or a Saturday afternoon at the store, we can live aware of Him. So take your everyday, ordinary life, and place it before God as an offering.

Ajahn Dhammasiha is asked:"How do we observe the mind?"Ajahn offers some reflections on superficial layers of the mind (like thinking) and deeper layers that can only be accessed in Samādhi. Ajahn also responds to a second question on mindfulness of feelings:"How to Distinguish wordly and spiritual feelings?"Spiritual happiness generated through good karma, generosity, virtue, sense retraint and samādhi/jhāna is so important, as it provides us with a superior happiness than sensuality.

Boom shakalaka! Dive into Ep 1,022 of The Clay Edwards Show, July 17, 2025 – 2 hrs of unfiltered reality radio with Clay Edwards firing on free speech, local scandals, & cultural clashes. Kicking off with a passionate defense of uncensored platforms amid AI de-ranking for taboo topics like COVID & crime. Local Roundup: Rudy Warnock's guilty verdict on corruption charges spirals into tragedy – post-trial car wreck & suicide attempt on I-20 near Pelahatchie. Clay unpacks the "victimless" white-collar crime, long federal sentences (20-50 yrs), & painful recovery ahead. Sympathy for family, but accountability stressed: "Nobody deserves that, but suicide isn't the way out." Breaking: Possible raid on Savannah Street – JPD activity, news crews; ties to roadblocks hunting escaped New Orleans prisoner Derek (last seen in MS). "They're doing cop stuff – welcome to the party!" FAFO Champ: Brandon block party shooting (June 21, Mary Miles Dr.) – city-permitted event turns deadly. Ryan Mosley (31) arrested for 1st-degree murder & felon w/ firearm after killing one, injuring another. "Don't go to parties needing a gun – rethink standards for permits!" Shrimp Scandal: Study reveals 30/44 Jackson-area spots serve imported shrimp despite "wild-caught" claims. Kudos to 14 authentic ones (e.g., Drago's, Half Shell, Shaggy's) – call for transparency under new MS labeling law. Immigration Truth Serum: Border chaos blamed on Dems' open policies; regrets good folks caught in crackdown. "No negative Hispanic interactions ever – hard workers, accountable. But illegal entry = crime; come through front door!" Obama's Masculinity Critique: Ex-prez urges men to get gay friends for empathy, share feelings, ditch provider roles, & embrace arts over sports. Clay fires back: "Already have gay alpha friends! This attacks manosphere – ironic from fragile Barry. Distinguish from LGBTQ agenda; assumptions offend conservatives." Epstein Ties: Listener nods to connections & suicides – "Weird how they're linked." Clay's Rants: Offense at sensitivity over words ("gay" as ball-busting, "retard" for stupidity – not targeting disabled). Stereotypes earned; force acceptance backfires (e.g., Redskins name – Indians want it back!). Raw, chaotic vibes on politics, culture, & accountability.

In this edition of UBC "Sermon Discussions" Pastor Jason answers questions related to his Genesis 32:1-21 sermon.The main idea for the sermon was: When you're fearful of the things ahead, look to your faithful God instead.Questions discussed in this episode: Distinguish fearing God vs fearing man?What does it tell us about our mighty big God that he desires to carry our anxiety?How should it look like for a Christ follower who struggles with fear and anxiety, act obediently according to the Word?What if God doesn't take away the anxiety, pain, or mental illness, when we cry out to God? I did what he asked, but my struggle is real and keeps getting worse.Jacob's fear not only affected him but his family. How does a spouse, family member, friend, etc who is directly affected by the fear of the person they love biblically respond (deal) with it?Was Jacob wrong for making plans? Is there a way to properly plan while also trusting God at the same time?As a reminder we have created a place where you can send us your questions regarding the sermons or topics we discuss in these podcasts.

Hey Team! This week, I'm talking with Dr. Ari Tuckman, a psychologist, certified sex therapist, and one of the most well-known voices in adult ADHD. Ari brings over 25 years of clinical experience to the table, along with his new book, The ADHD Productivity Manual, which takes a honest look at the tools we use, and why they sometimes don't work the way we want them to. It was actually funny, before the call, we were joking about how it's funny that our orbits hadn't crossed before - well, I do get into one anecdote about attending a talk he gave in 2019, but that's basically as close as we'd interacted before this. In our conversation, we unpack how shame and comparison can hijack our energy, how to set reminders that actually help instead of hinder, and why simple doesn't always mean easy. We also touch on what it means to communicate your needs assertively (without over-apologizing) and why trying to do everything perfectly is the fastest route to doing nothing at all. There's a ton of easy-to-access, actionable advice in this episode. I had a ton of fun with it, and I think you'll love it too. If you'd life to follow along on the show notes page you can find that at HackingYourADHD.com/228 YouTube Patreon This Episode's Top Tips 1. Include contextual details in your reminders. Put the address, building name, or even office location in the event title so you don't show up on time or in the wrong place. 2. Distinguish between “simple” and “easy.” Just because a task is straightforward (like taking out the trash) doesn't mean it's easy to do, especially with ADHD. 3. Be strategic with your best focus time. Don't “spend gold on garbage” - use your high-focus hours for harder tasks, not emails or unloading the dishwasher. Do less, but do it on purpose. Sometimes productivity means pulling back and intentionally choosing what not to do, instead of doing everything poorly.

Leave Health Bite a Feedback.Click This Link.What if the key to living a life without regret isn't avoiding failure, but embracing the courage to try - especially when you're "too old" to start something new?In our achievement-obsessed culture, we're conditioned to believe that transformation should happen seamlessly, that successful people have linear paths, and that reinvention gets harder with age. But what if everything we've been told about change, identity, and "appropriate" timing is keeping us trapped in lives that no longer fit?In this deeply personal and universally inspiring episode of Health Bite, Dr. Adrienne Youdim sits down with keynote speaker, mindset coach, and author Petra Kolber to explore what it really takes to transform your life - not just once, but multiple times, and especially later in life.Who is Petra Kolber?Keynote speaker and mindset coach specializing in transformation and resilienceAuthor of "The Perfection Detox" - a guide to breaking free from perfectionist patternsFormer Reebok fitness athlete with over a decade representing the brand globallyAt age 61, boldly pivoted to become a DJ - proving reinvention has no expiration dateRecovering perfectionist who has navigated multiple major life transitionsWhat You'll Discover in This Episode:How perfectionism becomes a prison that keeps us from trying anything we might not excel at immediatelyWhy women especially struggle with owning their ambition and drive without apologizingHow our American obsession with work-based identity becomes a barrier to reinventionWhy This Episode Matters: Whether you're a high-achiever feeling stifled by your current success, someone navigating midlife transitions, or anyone who's ever thought "it's too late for me," this conversation offers permission to redefine what's possible at any age.This episode will help you:Distinguish between healthy ambition and perfectionist paralysis that prevents actionUnderstand why clinging too tightly to current identity blocks future growthLearn to create runway for exploration rather than burning bridges impulsivelyNavigate the spiritual and existential shifts that often accompany midlifeConnect with Petra Kolber:Website: PetraKolber.comLinkedin: https://www.linkedin.com/in/petrakolber/ Book: "The Perfection Detox" - https://www.amazon.com/Perfection-Detox-Critic-Bravely-Unleash/dp/0738234850 Ways that Dr. Adrienne Youdim Can Support You Join the Monthly Free Mind-Body Workshops: Participate in engaging mind-body practices designed to help manage your stress response.

This week on TOWTW Podcast, Chelsea sits down with integrative bodywork and somatic therapist Joshua Marable for a serendipitous conversation about the messy realities of human connection. Joshua challenges us to go into our pain rather than around it, exploring how synchronicity, self-awareness, and somatic healing intersect with relationships. They dive deep into maintaining your sense of self within partnerships, the real talk about sex and intimacy, conflict resolution beyond surface fixes, and why infidelity is often about unmet needs rather than simple betrayal. This raw, unfiltered discussion transcends judgment and approaches relationships with the kind of radical honesty that transforms pain into growth – because sometimes the conversation you're avoiding is exactly the one you need to have.SUBMIT YOUR OWN STORYhttps://www.theotherwomanandthewife.com/submitASK US A QUESTIONWe answer questions from other women and wives on our podcast:Submit yours hereHOW WE CAN HELPJoin the Other Women Community: Use Code PODCAST to receive $10 off a community membershipApply for 1:1 CoachingOUR LINKSWebsite: https://towtw.com/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/theowandthewife/ TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@theowandthewifeGUEST BIO:Joshua Marable is Somatic Therapist at WellessenceMDWith over 20 years of experience in the somatic-related fields of integrative bodywork, therapeutic massage, mindfulness coaching, and personal training, Joshua Marable brings a wealth of expertise and dedication to WellessenceMD.  https://wellessencemd.com/about/joshua-marable/

The Rebbe directs him to the teaching of the Tchernerblier Rebbe (and in Hayom Yom, 23 Sivan) to discern between Yetzer Tov and Yetzer Hara. He adds that not only is it permitted, but it is an obligation to learn Tanya with others, as studying Chassidus strengthens Torah observance and mitzvos. https://www.torahrecordings.com/rebbe/igroskodesh/015/010/5519

In episode 204, Coffey talks with Rosalind Chow about the distinct roles of mentorship and sponsorship in advancing careers and building more inclusive workplaces. They discuss the distinction between mentorship (which helps grow the mentee) and sponsorship (which seeks to change how others see the protege); how sponsorship functions like marketing or PR campaigns for high-potential employees; the four types of sponsorship - creating, confirming, preventing, and protecting; why sponsors risk their own credibility and reputation when advocating for others; how sponsorship doesn't require formal hierarchical relationships but depends on trust and status; how to become more "sponsorable" by being a top performer with clear values and compelling personal story; the risks of having the wrong sponsor or appearing as the "teacher's pet"; and how sponsorship creates inclusion by ensuring high performers are seen, valued, and given opportunities regardless of their background or circumstances. Good Morning, HR is brought to you by Imperative—Bulletproof Background Checks.

While mentorship can change mentees for the better through valuable coaching and encouragement, sponsorship takes it one step further — sponsors can change the social environment around their proteges by actively advocating for, raising the social visibility of, and protecting them. Put simply, while mentors act on mentees, sponsors act on external observers – audiences - to change how they see proteges.  We don't just have the ability to change other people; we also have the ability to change other people's relationships with one another. This ability - the power we have as sponsors - is something we can leverage to better ourselves, other people, and our communities. Rosalind Chow can be reached athttp://www.rosalindchow.com/https://www.linkedin.com/in/rosalind-chow-6b25541b0/  About Mike Coffey: Mike Coffey is an entrepreneur, licensed private investigator, business strategist, HR consultant, and registered yoga teacher.In 1999, he founded Imperative, a background investigations and due diligence firm helping risk-averse clients make well-informed decisions about the people they involve in their business.Imperative delivers in-depth employment background investigations, know-your-customer and anti-money laundering compliance, and due diligence investigations to more than 300 risk-averse corporate clients across the US, and, through its PFC Caregiver & Household Screening brand, many more private estates, family offices, and personal service agencies.Imperative has been named a Best Places to Work, the Texas Association of Business' small business of the year, and is accredited by the Professional Background Screening Association. Mike shares his insight from 25+ years of HR-entrepreneurship on the Good Morning, HR podcast, where each week he talks to business leaders about bringing people together to create value for customers, shareholders, and community.Mike has been recognized as an Entrepreneur of Excellence by FW, Inc. and has twice been recognized as the North Texas HR Professional of the Year. Mike serves as a board member of a number of organizations, including the Texas State Council, where he serves Texas' 31 SHRM chapters as State Director-Elect; Workforce Solutions for Tarrant County; the Texas Association of Business; and the Fort Worth Chamber of Commerce, where he is chair of the Talent Committee.Mike is a certified Senior Professional in Human Resources (SPHR) through the HR Certification Institute and a SHRM Senior Certified Professional (SHRM-SCP).

We start a new segment of Leviticus, looking at what is “clean” and “unclean” for the Israelites. We must remember that “unclean” is not necessarily bad, it just means that it is not holy or fit for use in worship of God in the tabernacle. Being “clean” or “unclean” was a designation related to someone's ability to participate in the worship at the tabernacle. If you were “unclean,” you had to go through the cleansing process to become “clean” in order to enter the tabernacle courtyard. It was all about being set apart and prepared to approach the Lord. In this Bible study, we look at the first of 5 chapters on cleanliness, looking at what foods are clean and unclean. Outline:06:16 - Overview of Leviticus 11-15Leviticus 11 - food - what is clean and may be eaten, and what is unclean and not to be eatenLeviticus 12 - cleanliness and purification after childbirthLeviticus 13 - skin diseases, fungus & moldsLeviticus 14 - cleansing skin diseases, fungus & moldsLeviticus 15 - discharges causing uncleanness01:17 - Why are these chapters on cleanliness here? Why are they so odd at times? What was their purpose? Why did all this even exist in the first place - IT MAKES NO SENSE. Give me just a few minutes and I will give a quick explanationThe principal duties of the Israelite priesthood1. Distinguish between the Holy and the common2.

KJV - Schoolmaster. AMP - tutor and our disciplinarian. RSV - Custodian. TLB - teacher and guide.Application:This call to be set apart did not just exist for the Jews in Moses' day. It exists for us today. Jesus, in the opening of the Sermon on the Mount, he said, Mat 5.14-16 - “You are the light of the world. A town built on a hill cannot be hidden.

Then someone speaks up: “I'm feeling overwhelmed because I need some clarity. Would you be willing to give us a two-minute summary?” No blame. No drama. Just clarity and connection. That's the transformational power of what Clarice Belcher calls the language of compassion. Why You Need This Episode Leadership isn't just about metrics and meetings—it's about human connection.

Episode OverviewThis week, I consider the Stoic philosophy of Marcus Aurelius' Meditations and Epictetus' Enchiridion, part of Ted Gioia's Humanities List (link below!). Moving from Greek dramas to 2nd-century Roman Stoics, we first talk about the move from Greek lit to Roman, how the mindset and history will impact what we read. I cover Marcus Aurelius and Epictetus in depth, mention Admiral Stockdale (a modern Stoic) and end the episode with Rudyard Kipling's poem "If." Marcus Aurelius' MeditationsMeditations, the private journal of a Roman emperor, emphasizes self-focus, humility, and inner peace. Key takeaways include: Focus on your own mind and skills, not others' actions or opinions. Embrace nature to cultivate curiosity and appreciation for the world. Accept life's brevity and smallness, acting virtuously without expecting rewards. Find peace within, not in external escapes like vacation homes. Hold pleasures loosely to achieve contentment in the present moment.I note the surprising modernity of Aurelius' advice but question its contradictions, like the futility of life versus the call to virtue.Epictetus' EnchiridionEpictetus, a former slave turned philosopher, offers a direct, practical guide in The Enchiridion. I prefer Epictetus' straightforward style, finding it more relatable than Aurelius' introspections. Highlights include: Distinguish what harms the body from what affects the will—Epictetus' own lameness adds poignancy to this teaching. Know your limits and operate fully within them, committing wholeheartedly to your purpose. Avoid excess in speech, laughter, or indulgence, embracing simplicity.Consider the parallels to Biblical teachings like Colossians 3:17.Reflections and ChallengesI don't love Stoicism, as I think it sacrifices deep love and beauty. But there's no doubt that its ideals have a place in society--Stockdale and Kipling both reflect that. Translation struggles (George Long's arcane 1877 version versus Gregory Hays' readable Meditations) and time management issues due to travel delayed this week's reading. Classical music (Haydn's Symphonies 45, 94, and 104) enriched the experience, though I skipped the art.What's NextNext week, I explore Suetonius' Twelve Caesars with Mozart's symphonies and Italian art by Botticelli and Caravaggio.

That Solo Life, Episode 294: National Days and Awareness Months and How to Manage in 2025   Summary: This podcast episode discusses the abundance of "national days" and how PR professionals and marketers should approach aligning their client initiatives with these events. The key points are: There is an overwhelming number of these "national days" which can become diluted and ignored by the public. These days can be divided into two categories: awareness/educational campaigns vs. marketing-driven events. For awareness months/days related to important causes, it can make sense to align content and messaging if it's relevant to the client's business. However, marketers should be cautious about aligning with more frivolous "national days" just for the sake of participation. The most important factor is whether the client's news, announcement, or content is truly newsworthy and valuable, regardless of whether it aligns with a designated national day or month. Forcing an announcement to fit a particular calendar event is not advised. PR professionals should set clear expectations with clients about which national days/months are worth aligning with versus when it may be better to simply focus on the strength of the news itself. In This Episode Are you overwhelmed by the never-ending list of national days, weeks, and months? From National Hot Dog Day to Domestic Violence Awareness Month, it feels like every moment in the calendar is claimed by something. But does your brand have to jump on every single one?  In today's episode, co-hosts Karen Swim, APR (Solo PR Pro) and Michelle Kane (Voice Matters) discuss how to strategically decide which awareness and marketing campaigns to align with (and when to pass). They share practical advice for PR pros, marketers, and business owners on how to cut through the clutter while staying authentic to your brand. What We Discuss in This Episode: The evolution of National Days and how their popularity has changed over time.  The difference between awareness campaigns that educate (e.g., Autism Awareness Month) versus marketing-driven moments (e.g., National Ice Cream Day).  Why staying true to your brand's mission is key when deciding whether to participate.  Evaluating client expectations and helping them decide if their campaigns align with specific days or months.  How doing something outside of a marketing or awareness month can sometimes help your message stand out.  Tips for advising clients on when their big news deserves attention at the right time.  Key Takeaways: Not every campaign is necessary. Assess whether a national day or awareness month is relevant and meaningful to your brand or clients before joining in.  Awareness vs. gimmicks: Distinguish between educational campaigns that offer real value and marketing "fun" that may not add much.  Timing is everything. Great news is great news, no matter what day you share it. Don't feel tied to these campaigns if they don't serve your goals.  Listener Reminder: We're not throwing shade at National Donut Day (a very worthwhile occasion, honestly!), but don't feel obligated to latch on to every trendy day in the calendar. Use these moments as tools—but only when they make sense for your brand!  Mentioned in This Episode: How to align content with National Days effectively without overwhelming your brand strategy.  Examples of when leveraging awareness months like Domestic Violence Awareness Month can reinforce your brand's values.  Special Invite: If you found value in today's conversation, we'd love for you to share this episode with your network!

We discuss the evaluation of and treatment options for acute back pain. Hosts: Benjamin Friedman, MD Brian Gilberti, MD https://media.blubrry.com/coreem/content.blubrry.com/coreem/Acute_Back_Pain.mp3 Download Leave a Comment Tags: Musculoskeletal, Orthopaedics Show Notes **Please fill out this quick survey to help us develop additional resources for our listeners: Core EM Survey** Clinical Evaluation: Primary Goal: Distinguish benign musculoskeletal pain from serious pathology. Red Flags: Look for indicators of spinal infection, spinal bleed, or space-occupying lesions (e.g., tumors, large herniated discs). Assessment: A thorough history and neurological exam (strength testing, gait) is essential. Additional Tools: Use bedside ultrasound for post-void residual assessment in suspected cauda equina syndrome Imaging Guidelines: Routine Imaging: Generally not indicated for young, healthy patients without red flags. ACEP Recommendations: Avoid lumbar X-rays in patients under 50 without risk factors, as they do not change management and may increase costs and ED time. Advanced Imaging: Reserve MRI for patients with red flags, neurological deficits, or suspected cauda equina syndrome; CRP may be a part of your calculus when evaluating for infectious causes of back pain Treatment Options: Evidence-Based First-Line: NSAIDs offer modest benefit.

In episode 618, Megan chats to Nora Bourdeau about balancing a blog with other commitments, highlighting the significance of living one's "why" and the value of small, consistent actions to propel progress over time. Nora Bourdeau started Balancing Bowls in 2022 as a way to record her recipes and share them with friends and family. Balancing Bowls is the product of a slightly chaotic life, a need to make and grow things, and a love of creative cooking. While the blog has a flexitarian approach to cooking, Nora loves to cook with beans and lentils so you will find lots of legume recipes and information on the blog. Living outside of Boston, Ma, with her husband and three kids, she is also a full-time high school art teacher. In this episode, you'll learn about creating routine that serves your ‘why', recognizing daily wins, regardless of how small they are, and focusing on the process over perfection. Key points discussed: - Embrace mini momentum: Recognize that progress is made through small, consistent steps rather than giant leaps. This gradual growth can be seen in your analytics over time. - Live your 'why': Identify your deeper motivations and purpose, and make sure your daily actions align with and bring that 'why' to life. - Distinguish goals from milestones: Understand the difference between your ultimate goals and the smaller milestones you can achieve along the way. - Celebrate small wins: Take time to acknowledge and appreciate even the smallest accomplishments, as they contribute to your overall progress. - Prioritize progress over perfection: Focus on continuous improvement rather than striving for an unrealistic ideal. Perfection is fleeting, but progress is lasting. - Leverage daily practices: Implement habits like journaling, gratitude, and tracking progress to amplify your mini momentum. - Protect your sleep: Ensure you get adequate, quality sleep, as it is essential for your productivity, efficiency, and overall well-being. - Embrace the option to quit: Recognize that you have the freedom to walk away from things that no longer serve you, which can be liberating.

Dating can be emotionally intense, even for those who've worked on themselves. Sabrina explains that dating triggers are normal, but trusting your instincts is crucial. Building a healthy relationship takes patience, self-awareness, and emotional regulation. Distinguish between anxiety (which spirals) and intuition (which feels calm). Set boundaries, stick to routines, and invest your emotions wisely. To manage overthinking, try journaling and mindfulness. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy can help break negative thought patterns. Stay present, be vulnerable without seeking validation, and take things slow. Focus on self-awareness and self-trust for a healthy start.
