Podcast appearances and mentions of elizabeth enright

We're spending the summer at Gone-Away Lake! Elizabeth Enright's classic story of creating your own adventure is rich with wish-fulfillment fantasy. Enright brings cousins Portia, Julian and Foster to life as they tromp through swampland, evade the Gulper and befriend Min and Pin, kindly siblings living out of time. We discuss the decline of American aristocracy, summer's sweet melancholy, and the complex memories Gone-Away evokes. Casual children's adventure story stuff!MUSIC - Pippin the Hunchback and Thatched Villagers by Kevin MacLeod (incompetech.com) - Licensed under Creative Commons: By Attribution 3.0 License http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0/

Do you ever feel like you are overwhelmed with the number of tasks involved in building your business? Do you realize you are not gifted in many of those tasks you are forcing yourself to do? The TRUTH is we cannot do everything if we want to accomplish our VISION. Maybe you dream of hiring someone to help but don't know how to hire someone, manage them or pay them for their work. It can be a daunting concept even though most of us recognize that we MUST hire others to reach our goals. Maybe you even feel guilt for hiring someone else (like I did). In today's discussion with Elizabeth Enright Phillips she shares amazing insights in how to hire as well as why it is VITAL to achieving our business goals! Elizabeth Enright Phillips is a full-time real estate investor and homeschool mom of 6 who thrives on delegation in the Central Ohio market and coaches other investors coast-to-coast to delegate their REI business while still making profitable community impact. Elizabeth and her husband Kurt got their start 21+ years ago by living on one side of a historic duplex in Central Ohio. When they couldn't sell the duplex, they decided to buy a few more. They only considered real estate as a full-time option once a mentor introduced them to private money and buying off-market deals. That started a journey of faith to scale and expand their portfolio so that Kurt could leave his high-paying job at UPS. Today Kurt & Elizabeth work together full time in their portfolio of 40+ doors of long-term rentals and co-homeschool their 6 children.  Elizabeth specializes in teaching delegation with virtual assistants, training tenants, creative finance opportunities, private money, tax strategies, off-market deals, buying drug houses, and changing entire neighborhoods for long-term impact.  You can find Elizabeth at: www.runningcreekco.com https://www.facebook.com/elizabethenrightphillips https://www.instagram.com/elizabethenrightphillips/ Visit our website at www.TrueWealthInvestors.com for more real estate wisdom and resources.   If you're an ambitious investor striving for significant goals, don't miss the opportunity to join our ELEVATE Mastermind Group.  Apply now at www.TrueWealthInvestors.com/mastermind and connect with like-minded individuals ready to elevate their business to new levels.

What fear pops up in your parenting again and again? Maybe it's, “how do I teach my kids that they can do hard things in a loving way?” or, “what if my kids make bad decisions?” or “what if I'm a bad mom?” These fears can feel overwhelming and that the answers to them are complicated.  My guest this week gives us an unexpected ally in overcoming the fears that grip us as moms - reading aloud. It sounds almost too simple, but author and mom of 7, Jennifer Pepito, shows us that the stories we share with our kids can help them navigate some of the tougher experiences with life. By exposing our kids to character building stories we can infuse them with perspective and thoughtfulness as they face life's difficult situations. She also encourages us that forgiveness can be an avenue to freedom from fear in our lives and specifically our parenting.  TRIGGER WARNING: This episode briefly mentions suicide. If you or anyone you know are struggling with suicidal thoughts please reach out to someone you trust.

At 72, he helped lead the effort to save the building where he taught even after learning that the fire had destroyed his home along with his personal collections and writings. Thanks to Olaus, the university library was saved. After the fire, he drew up plans to rebuild the city. (The plans were carried out without him.) Twenty-nine years after his death, Carl Linnaeus named the Rudbeckia, or Black-Eyed Susan, after him. Linnaeus wrote, So long as the earth shall survive and as each spring shall see it covered with flowers, the Rudbeckia will preserve your glorious name.   September 17, 1833  Birth of Hugh Macmillan, Scottish minister, and naturalist. In The Ministry of Nature, (1871), he wrote, Nature looks dead in winter because her life is gathered into her heart. She withers the plant down to the root [so] that she may grow it up again, fairer and stronger. She calls her family together within her inmost home to prepare them for being scattered abroad upon the face of the earth.   September 17, 1910  Birth of Patrick Millington Synge, British botanist, writer, and plant hunter. He served as chief editor for the Royal Horticultural Society. In 1934, he joined the British Museums expedition to the Ruwenzori range in Kenya and Uganda, which inspired his book The Mountains of the Moon - a nod to Herodotus's name for the area. The equatorial mountain lakes were home to six-foot-tall impatiens, 30-foot-tall lobelia, and thick, tree-like heather. The experience was otherworldly and his writing is romantic and lyrical. He wrote, Slowly we glide out through a long lane of water cut through the papyrus thicket into Lake Kyoga, where blue water lilies cover the surface with a far-stretching shimmer of blue and green... Vita Sackville-West loved his book, writing, Readers of Mr. Patrick Synge's enthralling book... will remember his photographs of this alarming plant (groundsel).  Patrick is remembered in the daffodil Narcissus hispanicus ex 'Patrick Synge' and in the exotic-flowering favorite Abutilon 'Patrick Synge'.   Unearthed Words And finally, it seemed autumn had realized it was September. The last lingering days of summer had been pushed off stage and in the hidden garden long shadows stretched towards winter. The ground was littered with spent leaves, orange, and pale green, and chestnuts on spiky coats sat proudly on the fingertips of cold branches.” ― Kate Morton, The Forgotten Garden   Grow That Garden Library Thus Spoke the Plant by Monica Gagliano  This book came out in 2018, and the subtitle is A Remarkable Journey of Groundbreaking Scientific Discoveries and Personal Encounters with Plants. In this book, research scientist Monica Gagliano explores plant communication - a subject that influenced her research and ultimately changed her life. Monica has studied plant communication and cognition for a good amount of her academic career. She shares firsthand accounts from people all over the world and then shares the scientific revelations. This book is 176 pages of plant stories - strange, beautiful, and unforgettable. You can get a copy of Thus Spoke the Plant by Monica Gagliano and support the show using the Amazon Link in today's Show Notes for around $20   Today's Botanic Spark Reviving the little botanic spark in your heart September 17, 1907  Birth of Elizabeth Enright, American writer, illustrator, and creative writing teacher. She won the Newbery Medal for Thimble Summer (1938). In book three of her popular Melendy family series called Then There Were Five (1944), she wrote, The mullein had finished blooming and stood up out of the pastures like dusty candelabra. The flowers of Queen Anne's lace had curled up into birds' nests, and the bee balm was covered with little crown-shaped pods. In another month -- no, two, maybe -- would come the season of the skeletons, when all that was left of the weeds was their brittle architecture. But the time was not yet. The air was warm and bright, the grass was green, and the leaves and the lazy monarch butterflies were everywhere.   Thanks for listening to The Daily Gardener. And remember: "For a happy, healthy life, garden every day."

The Saturdays is the first installment of Enright's Melendy Quartet, an engaging and warm series about the close-knit Melendy family and their surprising adventures.  This is Chapter 1 where we meet the Melendy children and are introduced to their clubhouse and the idea they came up to pool their allowances and take turns having adventures in pre-World War II New York City.  Hold on - The first adventure begins with Chapter #2 and you are not going to want to miss it!  This is the first of four books.

Looks Unfamiliar is a podcast in which writer and occasional broadcaster Tim Worthington talks to a guest about some of the things that they remember that nobody else ever seems to. Joining Tim this time is writer Una McCormack, who is absolutely convinced that she hasn’t just made up school songbook Ta-Ra-Ra Boom-De-Ay, Screw-Top Virgin Marys, Desert Wellies, Elizabeth Enright’s Melendy Family novels, Jackanory series Tales From The Edge Of The World, and short-lived toy craze Trick Sticks. Along the way we’ll be finding out why asking about ‘Mr. Benn Men’ in school is frowned on, how to attract boys from the school across the brook by rolling up your socks and narrowing your tie, and why you can’t hide a pierced ear from Jesus. Also, there’s LIVE YO-YO TRICKS! You can find more editions of Looks Unfamiliar at http://timworthington.org/

If you are unsure which books being published today are worth your time (or if they're worth your time at all)... then this brand new episode of the Read-Aloud Revival podcast- all about some of the best books by living authors- is for you. We're launching season 10 of the Read-Aloud Revival podcast with an episode dedicated to books that I'm confident can stand up with the classics, and that are every bit as good as your old favorites. Over the last few years, I've noticed something rather curious: I hear quite often from those who feel that old books are pretty much always better than new ones. They talk about the literary giants like C.S. Lewis, E. Nesbit, Elizabeth Enright, and J.R.R. Tolkien as though we will never see another literary genius like them again. As though one had to be born in a certain era in order to write books as profound and beautiful as theirs. I've got an Opinion with a capital "O" about this, because friends- tomorrow's classics are being written today. If you're ignoring the best modern children's books (and their authors), then you're missing out on a lot of wonderful stories. You're also missing the opportunity to support and cheer on writers and illustrators who are making beautiful books for our kids right now- who are putting wonderful work into a world that desperately needs it.
