Coming to us from the Front Range of Colorado we dive into issues affecting the great resource rich state of Colorado.

Two-time Emmy and Three-time NAACP Image Award-winning, television Executive Producer Rushion McDonald interviewed Dennis Earl (Chairman & CEO) and Mike Pyles (Vice President) of The Haltere Group. They are a Black-owned real estate syndication and investment firm. Hosted by Rashad McDonald, the conversation centers around financial empowerment, real estate investment, and community uplift, especially within the Black community.

Russell Marsan, a distinguished expert from IPX 1031, shares the intricacies and significant advantages of 1031 exchanges, which facilitate the deferral of capital gains taxes on real estate transactions. He emphasizes the common misconception that only properties of the same type can be exchanged, clarifying that any property utilized for investment or business purposes qualifies as like-kind. This episode serves as a critical resource for real estate professionals, particularly those engaged with baby boomer clients, who may be underutilizing their real estate assets. Russell advocates for proactive engagement with these clients to help them recognize the potential benefits of their holdings and the opportunities afforded by 1031 exchanges. With nearly three decades of experience, he provides invaluable insights that can significantly enhance an agent's ability to assist clients in navigating the complexities of real estate investment.Marsan begins by addressing a prevalent fallacy regarding the 'like-kind' requirement of 1031 exchanges, clarifying that the true essence of 'like-kind' pertains to the investment or business nature of the properties involved, rather than their physical characteristics. This pivotal clarification empowers realtors and investors to explore a wider array of investment opportunities, thereby enhancing their financial portfolios. Marsan encourages real estate professionals to engage with potential clients who may own underutilized properties, such as raw land, which could be transformed into lucrative investments through the strategic application of 1031 exchanges. The conversation further delves into the demographic trends influencing real estate transactions, particularly the significant role of baby boomers in the current market landscape. Marsan's assertion that this demographic holds a substantial portion of real estate assets underscores the urgent need for targeted outreach and education to facilitate their transition into more suitable investment vehicles.Takeaways: The 1031 exchange allows investors to defer taxes by swapping investment properties, enhancing their financial strategies significantly. A common misconception about the 1031 exchange is the belief that only similar property types can be exchanged, when in fact, any investment property can qualify. Educating realtors about the benefits of 1031 exchanges can help them gain new clients and offer valuable advice to property owners. Baby boomers hold a significant amount of real estate and are increasingly looking to reposition their assets to align with their retirement goals. Time constraints are crucial in 1031 exchanges; investors have only 45 days to identify new properties after selling, which can lead to failed exchanges if not properly managed. Utilizing 1031 exchanges effectively can dramatically transform an investor's financial landscape, shifting stagnant assets into productive income-generating properties.

In this important episode, David sits down with recipients of the 2024 Shine A Light on Antisemitism Civic Courage Award, Dr. Devin Randolph and Rabbi Dr. Meir Muller. Together, they discuss ways to combat prejudice, racism, and antisemitism by searching for the commonalities in Black and Jewish fights for freedom and liberation.  Dr. Randolph and Rabbi Dr. Muller encourage us to move away from black and white thinking and, instead, be vulnerable with each other, so that our human experiences may educate each other. Particularly in a post-October 7th landscape, the tension that may accompany Jewish education can create space for curiosity, support, and solidarity. Through historical and personal examples, this conversation explores the goal of promoting justice and understanding different perspectives.  This episode was produced by Dina Nusnbaum and Miranda Lapides. The show's executive producers are David Bryfman, Karen Cummins, and Nessa Liben. This episode was engineered and edited by Nathan J. Vaughan of NJV Media. If you enjoyed the show, please leave us a 5-star rating and review, or even better, share it with a friend.

“The basis of chinuch is that all the child's needs are being met - physical, emotional, spiritual.”“Educating children and influencing others brings you personal redemption."This sicha spoke about "pintele yid chinuch"A comment from when we first discussed it " i was listening to the part abt holding high standards like the kohen even when the child doesn't understand and doesn't want that. Today one of my students shared a story abt the group that was brought after the Chernobyl disaster to kfar Chabad. The organizers were concerned abt a huge group of girls that came with their own clothing. Should they have standards of tznius? The Rebbe answered that the standard should be high to the level of the community. But they should buy the girls really nice clothing. Thought that was a nice example of this type of chinuch. Going for the high standard but making it something that works for this child."

Every Nigerian child has the constitutional right to free and compulsory primary education, and free secondary education, yet there remains a huge gap between that law and the reality. One in every five of the world's out-of-school children lives in Nigeria. In a nation with one of the world's youngest populations, this lack of access to education could potentially cost the country its future. Its government recently acknowledged that there are 10.5 million children not being educated. It's a complex picture which includes underfunding, a lack of skilled teachers - and an issue of safety. BBC Africa journalist Yemisi Adegoke hears from parents and students at the sharp end of this crisis and asks the difficult questions to those in power.

Nonprofit mergers and acquisitions aren't a sign of weakness—they're a powerful strategy for long-term viability and community impact. In this leading edge conversation, we bring together two sector leaders: Tim Davis, President and Managing Partner of Glick Davis and Associates, and Jeffrey R. Wilcox, CEO and Founder of Interim Executives Academy. Together with host Julia Patrick, they chart a bold roadmap for organizational transformation through strategic partnerships, timely interim leadership, and cultural integration.As Jeffrey begins, “A sustainable nonprofit must first be viable. And to be viable, you must be survivable.” He challenges nonprofits to move beyond survival thinking and embrace strategic collaboration before financial or leadership crises strike. Tim Davis builds on that, offering a real-world example of three regional nonprofits merging their missions to secure larger grants and extend their reach: “Instead of three groups asking for $10,000 each, they made a unified ask for $100,000—and won.”The conversation digs into the uncomfortable truths of nonprofit M&A—ego, fear, and lack of information—but offers actionable strategies. Tim emphasizes that success is cultural, not just financial: “Unless you build the culture between organizations, one side is always unhappy.” Meanwhile, Jeffrey explains the unique power of interim leaders to guide organizations through this kind of transformation: “Interims help people reach the conclusion themselves—it becomes their idea, their ownership.”This episode doesn't just present M&A as a lifeline for nonprofits in distress—it reframes it as a proactive, bold strategy for those who want to own their future. With funding shifts, demographic changes, and leadership transitions accelerating across the sector, Tim and Jeffrey argue that now is the time to build viable, mission-driven collaborations that will withstand what's ahead.Whether you're a board member, CEO, or funder, this conversation will challenge your assumptions and equip you with the mindset and tools to explore mergers—not out of desperation, but from a place of strength. 00:00:00 Welcome and introduction of guests 00:01:50 What is transitional leadership and why it matters 00:03:14 How Glick Davis supports nonprofit mergers and turnarounds 00:04:23 Rethinking sustainability: viability vs survivability 00:06:02 Why nonprofits must start M&A talks sooner 00:08:10 Real example: nonprofits merging for financial literacy impact 00:10:13 Navigating ego and mission in M&A conversations 00:11:35 The interim leader's role in M&A facilitation 00:13:04 Educating stakeholders before merger decisions 00:15:55 Secret sauce of nonprofit M&A: culture building 00:18:27 Knowing when your org is no longer viable 00:22:54 What great interim leaders really do #NonprofitLeadership #StrategicMergers #InterimExecutivesFind us Live daily on YouTube!Find us Live daily on LinkedIn!Find us Live daily on X: @Nonprofit_ShowOur national co-hosts and amazing guests discuss management, money and missions of nonprofits! 12:30pm ET 11:30am CT 10:30am MT 9:30am PTSend us your ideas for Show Guests or Topics: HelpDesk@AmericanNonprofitAcademy.comVisit us on the web:The Nonprofit Show

Have you ever wondered why anxiety in children can look and feel so physical—and what we as pediatricians, parents, or caregivers can do about it? We're visiting a fan favorite from Episode #26 of Pediatric Meltdown, Dr. Lia Gaggino sits down with Dr. Colleen Cullinan, a leading pediatric psychologist, to dissect the powerful 3 B's approach: Brain, Body, and Behavior. Together, they reveal eye-opening truths about integrated behavioral health, the ways anxiety manifests in kids, and practical, actionable strategies for managing emotional meltdowns in real-time. This is not just about recognizing anxiety—it's about transforming how we support kids inside and outside the exam room. If you want to empower families, level up your clinical skills, and make a tangible difference, don't miss this conversation. This episode could change the way you think about pediatric care—forever.[00:00 - 11:35] Integrated Care Foundations: Building Partnerships in Pediatric PracticeIntegrated behavioral health bridges the gap between physical and mental health, creating seamless care experiences for families.Primary care is often the first—and sometimes only—entry point for children facing emotional or behavioral challenges.Partnerships between pediatricians and behavioral health providers increase accessibility, reduce stigma, and foster earlier intervention.The synergy and trust between pediatricians and psychology professionals leads to holistic, effective patient care.[11:36 - 15:49] The Role of Primary Care in Managing Anxiety and Emotional HealthPrimary care providers serve as trusted anchors, introducing mental health as an essential component of overall health.Familiarity with a child's history allows pediatricians to recognize subtle behavior changes and collaborate meaningfully with behavioral specialists.Normalizing physical symptoms of anxiety (like stomachaches and headaches) helps bridge conversations from medical to emotional concerns.Educating families on the inseparability of physical and emotional health empowers them to seek support without shame.[15:50 - 28:55] Anxiety Explained: The 3 B's and Practical Strategies for KidsThe "3 B's": Brain, Body, and Behavior, are interlinked—anxiety in the brain triggers body sensations, which guide behavior, often leading to avoidance.Psychoeducation is key: Emphasizing to families and youth that everyone experiences anxiety validates their feelings and reduces shame.Simple, actionable distress tolerance tools—breathing exercises, grounding techniques (like the “five senses” method), and focusing attention—can be taught in minutes during a regular visit.Providers can help children recognize “worry thoughts” and redirect their response before anxiety spirals into withdrawal or meltdown.[28:56 - 49:20] When to Escalate: Distress Tolerance, Prevention, and Team-Based SolutionsDistress tolerance techniques can bridge the gap until a child can access specialized behavioral care—or be sufficient for milder cases.Functional impairment is the marker for when anxiety moves from “manageable” to requiring traditional CBT or higher-level intervention.Exposure therapy explained: At its core, CBT for anxiety involves identifying fears and encouraging gradual, manageable exposure to them, with improvement through repetition.Advocacy for integrated behavioral health, resource sharing, and ongoing partnerships with community therapists are essential for sustainable, high-impact child mental health care.[49:21- 53:34] Dr. Lia's...

The mission is to keep girls in school and stop teenage marriages, because school isn't free in over 50 countries around the world and when parents have to make the difficult choices of feeding their kids or paying for school, food wins. And when the girls hit their teen years, they will often be married off so that someone else becomes responsible to feed them. Keeping girls in school instead creates a generational ripple effect, because an educated girl is more than twice as likely to ensure her on children are educated. Educating girls also grows the GDP of countries, when they get into the workforce. This is how together, we can change the world. Guests on this podcast are invited to donate to this important cause.

These courses teach life skills and anyone can take them, if you wanto be a better leader, parent, partner, be empowered in your own life, these courses are for you!Melissa's passion project is her non-profit, Girls Matter (www.girlsmatter.ca), breaking the poverty cycle 1 girl, 1 family, 1 village at a time. The mission is to keep girls in school and stop teenage marriages, because school isn't free in over 50 countries around the world and when parents have to make the difficult choices of feeding their kids or paying for school, food wins. And when the girls hit their teen years, they will often be married off so that someone else becomes responsible to feed them. Keeping girls in school instead creates a generational ripple effect, because an educated girl is more than twice as likely to ensure her on children are educated. Educating girls also grows the GDP of countries, when they get into the workforce. This is how together, we can change the world. Guests on this podcast are invited to donate to this important cause.

Hey Rainmakers! It's Chelsey and Stephen here—and if you've ever dreamed about launching a product that changes lives and makes a global impact, you're going to love this episode. We sat down with Cherie Hoeger, founder of Saalt, a game-changing period care company that's shaking up the industry with sustainable, empowering products—and purpose at the core. Cherie shares how a simple conversation with a family member in Venezuela opened her eyes to the global crisis of period poverty—and inspired her to take action. Her passion led her to launch Saalt, a B Corp that's now found in Target, Walgreens, Amazon, and soon Walmart. With a mission to make high-quality, sustainable period care available to everyone, Saalt has donated over 130,000 products in more than 50 countries. Talk about legacy! In this episode, we go behind the scenes on what it really takes to bring a purpose-driven product to life—how Cherie went from technical writing to launching FDA-regulated products, and why “starting from stupid” actually worked in her favor. From her trial-and-error journey to building US-based manufacturing relationships to developing industry-first technology in their period underwear, her story is full of grit, grace, and incredible innovation. You'll also hear how customer education played a huge role in growing the brand, why they offer real-time support with “cup coaches,” and how Cherie and her husband built a pro-family workplace—complete with an in-office preschool. Moms, if you've ever felt pulled between purpose and family, this one's for you. This episode is proof that you can do it differently, create a brand that reflects your values, and serve your family and the world at the same time.  Links for this episode: Check Out Saalt & Get 10% Off: Saalt | Reusable Period Care | Period Care Simplified - https://www.saalt.com/rainmaker  Connect with us: ► Rainmaker Instagram: @therainmakerfamily ► Chelsey Instagram: @chels_diaz ► Stephen Instagram: @steezdiaz ► TikTok: @therainmakerfamily ► Facebook: @diazfamilylegacy ► Website: therainmakerfamily.com   Join Our Next Rainmaker Challenge - How To Make Passive Income From Home: https://therainmakerchallenge.com Save On Our Favorite Things: https://rainmakerfamily.com/deals Watch The Million Dollar Mama Case Study: https://www.makeitrainmomma.com/casestudy   Episode Minute by Minute:  0:00 - Meet Cherie Hoeger, Founder of Saalt 1:30 - The Conversation That Sparked a Global Mission 3:00 - What Is Period Poverty (and How Saalt Is Solving It) 5:00 - Cherie's First Steps in E-commerce 7:00 - Building with Passion (Not Just Profits) 10:00 - Becoming a Certified B Corp 12:00 - Educating the Market Without Shame 16:00 - Manufacturing in the U.S. and Innovation Hurdles 20:00 - Launching a Second Product: What Worked (and What Didn't) 24:00 - Why Customer Empathy Leads to Better Products 27:00 - Delight Budget + Real Human Support 29:00 - Work-Life Integration and Disrupting the 9-to-5 32:00 - The “Vital 5” and Structuring Your Life with Purpose 33:00 - Where to Find Saalt Products
