Feeding hay to livestock in the winter is very expensive, and often results in a sacrifice lot where manure gathers. At the same time, manure is considered gold because of its nutrient content, ability to supply organic matter, and to build soil life. In this second episode, Dr. Summer Thomas, education and outreach specialist with the Virginia Soil Health Coalition, takes us on a deeper dive into her research on the benefits of round bale grazing and how it pertains to the four core soil health principlesSummer explains how livestock and round bale grazing are land and soil health management tools for reducing machinery costs, better distributing manure and essential nutrients across pastureland, and truly energizing the system with biodiversity. Overall, round bale grazing is a sound management practice that leads to healthy soils, healthy plants, and healthy animals. As always, we encourage you to cooperate with other farmers, graziers, and gardeners for peer-to-peer learning and to follow the four core soil health principles: 1) Keep the soil covered -- Cover crops are our friends and allies;2) Minimize soil disturbance -- Practice no-till or gentle tillage in your field or garden as much as possible;3) Maximize living roots year-round -- to improve biodiversity, soil structure, and life in the soil; and4) Energize with diversity -- through crop rotation, farm enterprises, and/or livestock integration.More details about the Virginia Farm-to-Table Harvest Celebration scheduled for Saturday, October 25, 2025, from 4:00 to 8:00 p.m. at On Sunny Slope Farm in Rockingham, Virginia, can be found at https://virginiafarmtotable.org/2025vaf2tharvestcelebration/To enjoy recent 4 The Soil blog posts and additional soil health resources, please visit https://www.4thesoil.org/blog and https://www.virginiasoilhealth.org/.

Everything good starts with the soil and a conservation stewardship mindset. In the 101st episode, Dr. Summer Thomas, education and outreach specialist with the Virginia Soil Health Coalition, explains how agriculture and soil health are good for everyone. As a third-generation farmer from Delaware, former watermelon queen, a trained soil scientist and educator, and an overall advocate for agriculture, Summer shares some of her earliest experiences of 4-H and FFA with Jeff, Mary, and Eric in public speaking, youth education, and land stewardship.These early education and outreach experiences were a launch point for her passion for agriculture and career pursuit. Summer emphasizes that soil health and agriculture provide many positive community connections and must be fun for the next generation of farmers. Additionally, soil health is foundational to resilient farm businesses and systems.   As always, we encourage you to cooperate with other farmers, graziers, and gardeners for peer-to-peer learning and to follow the four core soil health principles: 1) Keep the soil covered -- Cover crops are our friends and allies;2) Minimize soil disturbance -- Practice no-till or gentle tillage in your field or garden as much as possible;3) Maximize living roots year-round -- to improve biodiversity, soil structure, and life in the soil; and4) Energize with diversity -- through crop rotation, farm enterprises, and/or livestock integration.Yes, soil health is a great conversation starter.

They cover everything from choosing the right Marley floor to preventing injuries, cleaning and maintenance tips, and the latest innovations from Gerriets. Bill's technical theater background and passion for helping studios shine make this a must-listen for any studio owner.   Episode Timestamps [00:28] – Meet Bill Brown from Gerriets Dance Floors [01:36] – Bill's background in technical theater and his journey with Gerriets [03:52] – History of Gerriets: From curtains to Marley dance floors [06:00] – Why flooring matters: Cushioning, subfloors, and injury prevention [08:09] – Challenges of multi-use floors: Tap vs. ballet needs [09:36] – The Vario Beat floor: Balancing slickness and grip [09:58] – Overview of other popular Gerriets products like Vario Pro [12:19] – Common mistakes studio owners make when installing floors [15:45] – Cleaning tips and Gerriets new Vario Care product line [18:16] – Gerriets new dedicated dance floor website [19:22] – Rapid-fire Q&A: Mistakes, installation tips, and favorite projects [24:13] – Bill's favorite part about working in dance flooring [24:55] – Coolest venues Gerriet's has worked with [26:25] – Final thoughts and how to connect with Gerriets   Key Takeaways Subflooring is critical – Concrete floors can cause long-term joint issues without proper cushioning. Marley floors vary by dance style – Ballet, tap, and multi-use studios require different traction levels. The Vario Beat floor balances slickness for tap with grip for ballet thanks to its innovative embossing. Proper cleaning is essential – Use pH-neutral, non-abrasive cleaners to maintain Marley's surface. Gerriets Vario Care line includes daily and deep-clean products plus a protective finish to extend floor life. Ask questions before installing – Delivery logistics, subfloor prep, and correct flooring choice are key. Gerriets new website specifically for dance floors https://gerrietsdancefloors.com/ makes it easier for studio owners to find flooring solutions and request quotes. Bill's philosophy: The right floor supports dancers' health and enhances performance while lasting for years.   Links Mentioned in This Episode Gerriets Dance Floors: https://gerrietsdancefloors.com/ Energize Conference and Expo: https://www.energizeconference.com/ Dance Studio Owner: https://www.dancestudioowner.com/public/joinnow.cfm Rate, Review & Subscribe!

Meg walks us through her powerful REAL Change Framework (Rebel, Energize, Align, Leap) for navigating life transitions with clarity and courage. Whether you're standing at the edge of a career change, an identity shift, or a cross-country move, her insights will help you challenge the stories you've been carrying and step into your next chapter with purpose.We especially dive into the first stage of her framework—Rebel—which is all about uncovering the beliefs you didn't even realize were shaping your decisions. We talk about how to rewrite the narrative, how to recognize when you're living someone else's version of success, and how to start honoring what you truly want. If you've ever caught yourself thinking, “Wait… is this even my voice, or someone else's expectation?”—this episode will hit home.This conversation is real, raw, and full of tangible coaching insights. Meg shares client stories, mindset reframes, and the exact process she uses to help women rise in the middle of uncertainty. If you're feeling pulled toward something more but don't know where to begin—this is your invitation to trust the nudge, rebel a little, and rise a lot.

In this episode of the podcast, Jeff Ishee chats with Susan Watkins of Watkins Farms in Dinwiddie County Virginia, a 3500 acre farm growing soybeans, corn, and wheat. Susan shares information about the long history of her family far, their transition to cover crops and no till over twenty years ago, and their approach to cover cropping. She shares about the cost and labor savings that have come from transitioning to these practices. Watkins Farms is located in the Chesapeake Bay watershed, which means conservation practices like no-till planting and the use of cover crops have an impact beyond the soil health of the land itself. Farmers play a key role in improving the water quality in the Bay.

Navigating the CEO Journey: Expert Insights from Loic Potjes of Disruptive LeapIn this episode of The Thoughtful Entrepreneur, host Josh Elledge speaks with Loic Potjes, Founder and Managing Partner of Disruptive Leap. Loic brings decades of executive experience and coaching insight to the conversation, sharing what it really takes to lead effectively in today's high-pressure business environment. From managing overwhelm and isolation to enhancing team engagement and time mastery, this episode offers a powerful roadmap for CEOs and founders who want to lead with greater clarity, balance, and impact.The CEO's Challenge: Moving from Reactive to Intentional LeadershipLoic opens the conversation with a personal note—his love of wine and community, especially as part of a wine club in Johannesburg. For Loic, passion outside of work fosters connection and personal renewal—qualities that matter just as much in leadership. But when the topic turns to the realities of being a CEO, the tone gets deeper: leadership is often lonely, reactive, and draining.He explains how many CEOs find themselves overwhelmed, stuck in the busyness of daily operations, and losing clarity on what truly drives business growth. According to Loic, one of the most effective strategies for reclaiming purpose and focus is to transition from reactive task management to a proactive leadership rhythm. That starts with self-awareness: understanding what energizes you, what drains you, and how to build a team that fills your gaps. By making space for strategic thinking and empowering complementary teams, CEOs can realign with their zone of genius and free themselves from burnout.Loic also discusses the power of consistent communication and engagement. Disengaged teams, he notes, are a global epidemic—with only 8% of French employees reportedly feeling engaged. To counter this, CEOs must not only lead with clarity but also create environments where employees thrive. Engagement starts at the top, and Loic shares practical steps for CEOs to model intentional leadership while nurturing team motivation and accountability.About Loic PotjesLoic Potjes is the founder and managing partner of Disruptive Leap, where he coaches CEOs and executive teams to lead with clarity, resilience, and impact. Drawing from his extensive background in leadership, Loic helps clients unlock their potential, align their priorities, and scale both personal and professional growth.About Disruptive LeapDisruptive Leap is an executive coaching firm focused on helping CEOs and leadership teams transition from reactive management to high-impact, purpose-driven leadership.

These turn off the melatonin faucet in your brain which allows you to kind of clear the brain fog and wake up. The more consistent you are with it, the more your body can expect when to turn off the melatonin faucet.

They are called UFPs, or "Unexplained Phenomena," and they can range from unidentified flying crafts to paranormal events like telekinesis, the ability to move objects with your mind. The term UFP has replaced 'Unidentified Flying Object', or UFO, to encompass all things possibly witnessed but not explained. In the past few years, Congress has held hearings to hear witness and expert testimony to look into the sometimes unexplained. FOX's Chris Foster speaks with Dr. Julia Mossbridge, the executive director of The Institute for Love and Time (TILT), a fellow at the Institute of Noetic Sciences, and an associated professor at the California Institute of Integral Studies and the author of 'The Calling: A 12-Week Science-Based Program to Discover, Energize, and Engage Your Soul's Work,' who has testified before Congress and says modern day science is catching up with UFP theories for possible answers.
