In this empowering episode, Brand Expert Ushi Patel joins me to discuss how women can break free from the habit of shrinking and start standing tall in leadership roles. She shares strategies to build confidence from within and create habits that support stepping fully into our greatness, rather than holding back. We dive into the challenges women face in male-dominated industries, from bias to the subtle (and sometimes not-so-subtle) pressures to silence our voices, and emphasize the importance of “going for gold”, advocating for yourself, and setting boundaries—like asking others to truly see you by looking you in the eye. We also tackle the difficult topic of isolation and the societal stigma around asking for help, offering strategies to help you connect, self-advocate, and embrace your own strengths as a leader. Join us to discuss building healthy habits, surrounding yourself with supportive evidence of your capabilities, and taking ownership of your greatness.  We dive into: Ushi's career journey and her passion for helping women The habit of shrinking and its impact on women in leadership roles Bias in tech, confidence challenges, and building evidence of your greatness Self-advocacy, vulnerability, and the “going for gold” mindset Asking for help and overcoming isolation And more   **Useful links** Connect with today's guest and sponsor, Ushi:  https://ushi-ink.com/  https://www.linkedin.com/in/ushipatel/ Ushi's current read: Dragons Love Tacos by Adam Rubin If you are ready to uplevel your career, get unstuck or you are simply ready to unlock those leadership time-management techniques then join us in my monthly career & leadership coaching program exclusively for women in tech: https://www.tonicollis.com/academy  Catch the show notes, and more details about today's episode here: https://tonicollis.com/episode226 Check us out on Youtube.

The taco loving dragons are back!

Dragons love tacos. They love chicken tacos, beef tacos, great big tacos, and teeny tiny tacos. So if you want to lure a bunch of dragons to your party, you should definitely serve tacos. Buckets and buckets of tacos. Unfortunately, where there are tacos, there is also salsa. And if a dragon accidentally eats spicy salsa . . . oh, boy. You're in red-hot trouble.

When we overlook little things, the results can be disastrous. And even when we do good things, what's our motivation?

It's Carmela's birthday, and she's finally old enough to tag along with her big brother as he runs the family errands. Passing by the bodega and the lavanderia, Carmela picks a dandelion and makes a very important wish… Carmela Full of Wishes illuminates the beauty of working class neighborhoods and the power of community and family. Told through the lens of a heartfelt sibling story, this endearing play explores what hope looks like in a migrant community steeped in Mexican culture. CARMELA FULL OF WISHES Adapted by Alvaro Saar Rios From the book by Matt de la Peña Illustrated by Christian Robinson Tony Diaz Writer and activist Tony Diaz, El Librotraficante, is a Cultural Accelerator.

These show notes contain affiliate links. Thank you for your support of Prep Dish! Whether your oven is broken or you just don't want to turn it on because it's too hot outside, these 5 recipes are perfect! Tacos - Tacos are a natural choice for the stovetop and there are so many variations! Use ground beef, ground turkey, ground pork or a big roast for carnitas. Mix up the veggies - I recommend trying poblanos! Stew in the Instant Pot - Imperfect Foods has some really good lamb stew meat. I combine it with root veggies and water or broth in the Instant Pot, sometimes with crushed tomatoes. Chicken stew is also great in the Instant Pot. Oatmeal - Steel Cut oats are great in the Instant Pot, especially with canned pumpkin and raisins! Hamburgers - These are great served with baked potato fries or sweet potato fries but if you don't have an oven, you can serve with a salad or sauteed veggies. Snapper in Crazy Water: This one is from the February Week 4 Super Fast Prep Dish menu. It was so good!

On this mini-episode of Up To The Moon And Back, Eden improvises two new songs about one of her favorite foods: Tacos. In "Asking Place" Eden takes taco-related calls from her friends and family including a special audio demonstration of how to make tortillas by her good friend Sol. "Book School" reviews Dragons Love Tacos, and Arlo doesn't know what's going on in the garden.

Welcome back, spelunkers! This week is a real milestone for us, as we've now certainly passed the first year mark from the inception of Reality Quest as a shared collaboration. We both feel this episode is our most genuinely unadulterated Jay & Kelly conversation space yet. From the beginning of this endeavor, we strove to reach a comfortable recording headspace which could bring the listener as close to the dinner table as is possible, and this might be the closest to the real deal. With a few tangents as is natural, the premise of this conversation began with a question: What is the value of XR? We immediately had to dive deeper to find the roots of that inquiry. Why should it become widespread? What benefit does it have over other mediums for experience, and where does it differ? How should we be communicating that value to people outside of this nascent industry? We ended up starting from a clean slate, laying out some common language, and set upon the task of breaking it down piece by piece. We began forming a mental model of XR & content, then attempted to define some of the basic components of Storytelling & Gameplay. Ultimately, our stack of questions grew far higher than we started with, but with the modest reward of new lenses through which to examine XR and stories in general. The riddle is by no means solved in the end, but we'll continue this examination in future #ToTs episodes and with more guests to come. So sit back and enjoy a glass with us. Thanks for listening!

Desmond, 6, has some strong opinions when it comes to food, and to children's literature. New episodes publish every Tuesday through Sep. 19. Subscribe, rate, review, tell your friends about a show that gives kids the chance to share what's best about reading, in their own words.

Our guest this week is Adam Rubin. Adam is the New York Times best-selling author of Dragons Love Tacos, Robo-Sauce, and half a dozen other critically-acclaimed picture books. He is also a world-renowned inventor of illusions and was recently named Director of Puzzles and Games for ArtofPlay.com.

On today's episode of THE FOOD SEEN … FLASH! BANG! BOOM! … author Adam Rubin & illustrator Daniel Salmieri, transform the classic picture book into Robo-Sauce, a recipe about a boy who became a robot. Also during storytime, Adam & Daniel's New York Times bestseller Dragons Love Tacos (note: dragons hate spicy salsa), as well as Secret Pizza Party, which follows a masked raccoon's ruses all due to his deep love of pizza. Adam & Daniel's books are novel additions to a long legacy of food-focused children's books like Dr. Seuss Green Eggs & Ham, Judi & Ron Barrett's Cloudy With a Chance of Meatballs, Tomie dePaola's Strega Nona, Eric Carle's The Very Hungry Caterpillar, and Maurice Sendack's In The Midnight Kitchen. Raid your pantry for plaxico powder, gluten-free kookamonga flakes, tumble berries, sparkenfarfle, all the ingredients you'll need for a piping hot pot of Robo-Sauce and read along!

Join all three of us as we discover things about dragons, tacos, and the love dragons have for tacos. Turns out there is a lot of dragon love when it comes to tacos. Rachel & Sam Read a Story is about the fun of reading children's books, and also about how little sense these books make when you read them 20 years later. We read the books aloud and make fun of them while we do. Enjoy! Follow Sam (@SamGasch) or follow Rachel (@Sknowite). Either way, please subscribe!
