New Hope Tallmadge

In a world of pain, polarization, and political struggles, a remnant waited for salvation. A promise had been given to restore, heal, and deliver, yet the poor, the captive, and the oppressed had been anticipating their day of freedom with no hope on the horizon. When suddenly royalty in swaddling cloths appeared and light shone upon the darkness and divide. A King had come, proclaiming a new way of Good News, freedom for prisoners, and Jubilee to all. And this King's proclamation still rings today, His prophetic movement is alive and well, and this Good News is for all people. Come join us as we start our new conversation in Luke: A King for All.

How often do you feel like you're unable to focus or even think clearly? Do you get distracted by the abundant information out there and have a hard time discerning what's valuable and what's not? Do you sometimes feel like you're going down rabbit holes just by paying attention to all the unimportant details?   The truth is, everyone experiences brain fog from time to time, but if you consistently lack mental clarity, it can have a big effect on your emotional health. This lack of clarity can be detrimental on your productivity and your personal relationships also.   What is mental clarity? When your mind is clear, you have the ability to put aside the distractions and focus on what's in front of you/what's important. You have the ability to tune out all the external distractions. When you have good mental clarity, you can focus on the tasks, make sound judgments, and remember important things.   However, anxiety, depression, and burnout can make it very difficult to think straight. If you start feeling mentally exhausted, or you're unable to focus on your daily tasks, and you're losing interest in tasks that used to excite you, these are all telltale signs that you're experiencing mental fatigue.   If you want to have better attention, then a mentally fit brain is key. Try to switch up your routine and pay slightly more attention to your own self-care routine. Eliminate any unnecessary distractions that don't serve you and quiet your phone. These are all little things that can help you get mentally clear and feel more restored when you're flat out drained.     Continue Your Growth Journey: Kaminiwood.com

Are your reps as productive as they can be, or do they get distracted by the technology they have to use in their role? My guest this week is Dr Jeremy Noad, Global Director of Growth Productivity at Linde. Jeremy is going explain why you should coach around the benefits of focus, to make it as easy for your reps to do their job. "Technology is something we absolutely need to have. Over time each technology we've bought has been designed to save us time, but as a sales person we have to pursue a lot more opportunities to be successful. A task may have taken you 15 mins, but in reality it's probably taken you more like 40 mins because we have this thing called attention lag. If you move around different systems frequently throughout the course of the day, this multi-tasking idea makes you less effective. Therefore you've got to think about what you have to do to with your tech stack and help your people manage this."

Happy Hour with Nir Eyel author of Indistractable on Trending with Timmerie answering the question “what motivates us to be distracted?” (2:25).   He answers questions about distraction, productivity, to-do lists, ADD/ADHD, keeping kids and teen boys focused, and his email philosophy (20:27). Timmerie discusses how prayer & confession help us deal with discomfort and distraction (36:43).

Lisa is joined by Kathleen Nadeau, PhD, who talks about her latest book, STILL DISTRACTED AFTER ALL THESE YEARS: Help and Support for Older Adults with ADHD.Dr. Nadeau is the founder and clinical director of the largest private ADHD specialty clinic in the US. She has practiced psychology in the Washington, DC area since the early 1970's and is the author or co-author of many books on ADHD including the bestselling ADD-friendly Ways to Organize Your Life, Understanding Girls with ADHD, and Understanding Women with ADHD. She received the CHADD Hall of Fame Award in 1999 for her groundbreaking work on girls and women.STILL DISTRACTED AFTER ALL THESE YEARS explains:·       Possible signs and effects of adult ADHD: ADHD in adults is severely under-diagnosed, and the name ‘attention deficit disorder' can be misleading: most think ADHD's main issue is causing difficulty in ‘paying attention.' To the contrary, ADHD can also impact almost every aspect of your life.·       Extra challenges of retirement for people with ADHD: According to the National Council on Aging, at least one-third of boomers over age sixty-five live near or below the poverty line. Impulsivity and money-management struggles are a hallmark of adult ADHD, so those with ADHD are often less financially prepared for retirement.  ·       How the life of a US adult has changed significantly in the last generation.  There are many cognitive demands placed on seniors – new methods of social connection, hundreds of new emails to sort through, etc. – and ADHD can make these changes even more difficult to navigate. ·       ADHD, marriage, and compromise: ADHD can bring challenges to a relationship, and a better understanding of the disorder can lead to healthier relationships between equal partners. ·        How living with ADHD in later years is hugely influenced by multiple factors: co-occurring issues, such as anxiety, depression, low self-esteem, and learning disorders combined with a heightened level of stress, the presence or lack of support from others, and the number of people we are responsible for can all complicate and intensify the effects of ADHD.·       …and much more.

Many female solopreneurs start a business with nothing more than a good idea, a lot of passion, and a strong sense of purpose. Then they start collecting free and low-cost information and advice, followed by courses and massive group programs that can get them out of the starting blocks but will leave them stuck, stranded, or spinning their wheels at some point because they don't actually know what they need to succeed or how to implement the information they have and in what order. The bottom line is that every single one of us is experiencing what I call “The Gap”, the space between where you are and where you want to be. It might be aspirational, motivational, financial or simply the ultimate expression of your potential or purpose, but however you define it, the gap is painful, especially if you are idealistic, and have a big bold vision for your business and the mark you want to make in the world. So, let's dig into the 6 common problems that hold women back… The first 3 often travel together, like an unholy trinity, but I will address them one at a time because even though they frequently show up in our business and life, we don't always have the entire cluster fuck to contend with at any given time. Procrastination You mean to do it. You know you should. It's not even that big a deal, but you just keep putting it off. This pattern of waiting until the last minute is called procrastination. It's very habit-forming, stressful, and causes a lot of shame. The good news is that it's learned behavior and what is learned, can be unlearned. You don't need to wait until you feel more motivated to deal with your procrastination, because putting off something you can start doing now is the whole problem. Just identify the first step and take it. Taking action is habit-forming too.PerfectionismOther people may sing your praises, but nothing you ever do feels like it is quite good enough for you. One of the problems with perfectionism is comparing ourselves to others, so try comparing your abilities today to where they were a year ago. Since your internal set point isn't working very well, you can also just decide on an objective measure like the amount of time spent on a task or project, instead of waiting to feel that internal sense of approval. Dealing with perfectionism frees up so much energy and joy, so take the first step. It's worth it.People-pleasing You are the kind of person that is always there for everyone and is known for being dependable and hard-working. You really do try to set boundaries and limits on how much you do for others, but it's just so hard to let anyone down. It's becoming increasingly hard to focus on your own goals and sometimes you really do feel resentful, even though you do what is expected of you anyway. A great way to start unlearning the habit of people-pleasing is deciding for yourself what your limits will be and gaining some practice communicating them to others. Maybe a first step would be to tell that colleague who always asks you to help out that you really can't this time. No excuse, no apology. It is hard at first, but with practice, it gets easier and you gain time, energy, and self-respect in the process.DistractibilityMost entrepreneurs and creatives have so many ideas on their minds that they have a hard time staying focused. Distracted by social media, their environment, other people and even their own thoughts is a constant struggle. It's time to stop chasing so many rabbits! Learn to recognize what is stealing your attention so you can tame the ones that are holding you back. Creating boundaries means you get your most important stuff done.ImpulsivityOrdering or buying stuff impulsively instead of thoughtfully can become a real problem. Stop and pause for a moment...

For all the effort it takes to find a job in the sports industry, the workplace you land with needs to be the right fit. Carol in Washington is having that issue and seeking advice from the WorkInSports Podcast:"Hi Brian, I'm 25 and have had two jobs in the sports industry so far. Both have been a nightmare. I'm not losing hope, but I'm wondering how I could have sniffed out these bad opportunities before accepting the job. It really sucks to put a miserable year in at a place and then realize it's a terrible fit and a wasted step. Help. I don't want to make the same mistake again."How to Spot a Toxic Workplace Before Taking a JobAfter interviewing for any job, you need to ask yourself questions if you get an offer to determine whether or not you mesh well with a potential employer. These questions include:Does the salary meet your expectations?Do you like and respect your potential co-workers/supervisor?Are there opportunities for growth in the organization?Beyond weighing the pros and cons of joining a company based on your expectations, several interview red flags can signal that a work environment is not a good fit for you.

The coughing, the sneezing, the snot, the sore throats...this viral season has been A LOT. I invited Dr. Krupa Playforth, board certified pediatrician and mom of 3 back on to the podcast to help us navigate the load of caring for our sick kids while navigating all the stress of being a parent (and possibly sick yourself!) We discuss: *Proactive steps we can take to boost immunity and protect our family from all the germs going around *Caring steps we can take once the illness hits our home, and the data behind some recent trends *Supporting our children in building a healthy relationship with illness while building connecting rituals around illness within our families *Navigating the mental, physical, and relational load of parenting with sick kids or while sick yourself Social media and the internet can be powerful, but they can also be a mine of misinformation. Dr Playforth believes every parent deserves clear, evidence-based, nuanced answers to common child health questions to help them feel empowered and equipped on their parenting journey.
