We all know we need to recover from work. The harder question is why so many of us wait until we are completely depleted before we do anything about it.  Most of us have a “tell“ letting us know we're depleted. For Crina, the “tell” may be getting short with family—or flipping off a stranger in traffic after a day that included driving a 26-foot U-Haul to Costco - so, OK, that's fair on any day. For Kirsten, the signs are also not so subtle – she hates people. The lesson? And thanks to our listener focus group who spoke about headaches and body aches, and being sick to their stomachs. Some of us speak inwardly, and some of us speak outwardly with our tells. You cannot keep priming. The pump on the well is dry. Recovery is not a reward for finishing everything. It is maintenance.   Think about training for a marathon. You don't wait until mile 22 to start hydrating and eating gel packs. You create capacity before you need it. Work is no different. Even when you haven't had a “hard day,” you have still had a day—and days take something out of us. Research on workaholism makes this more interesting. Not everyone who works a lot burns out. “Engaged workaholics”—people who work intensely because they genuinely love what they do—can fare better than people driven primarily by external pressure or compulsion. Loving your work may buffer some of the damage. But it is not a hall pass from recovery. In fact, people who see their work as a calling can be among the worst at recovery. So what actually helps us recover? Researchers point to four experiences: detachment, relaxation, mastery, and control.  Adding meaning and connection it's like adding jet  fuel - whether alongside these four experiences or on their own. The examples of this are myriad, and one wonderful participants in our focus group talked about evenings full of creative pursuits that filled the well for the days to follow.  Sounds like mastery and attachment with meaning. Detachment means your body leaves work and your brain comes too. Relaxation brings your nervous system down a notch. Mastery means doing something challenging and satisfying that has absolutely nothing to do with your job—learning Italian, gardening, pickleball, pottery, whatever. And control means getting to decide what your non-work life actually looks like. The cruel twist is the “recovery paradox”: recovery is easiest on good days and hardest on terrible ones—exactly when we need it most. Technology, unfinished work, workplace culture, and leaders who send midnight emails all make detachment harder. And leaders are always modeling a norm, whether they realize it or not. So perhaps the goal isn't simply to “repair” ourselves after work breaks us down. It's to restore ourselves continuously. Fill the well. Then prime the pump.

Great culture is not created by accident. It is built through consistent recognition, appreciation, and showing people what winning looks like.In this episode, I spoke with Alex Grande, CEO of Recognize, about why employee recognition has become such a critical part of building strong, resilient organizations. We explored how companies can improve engagement and retention by creating systems that make appreciation part of the everyday workplace experience, rather than something that only happens during annual reviews or special milestones. Alex shared the story behind building Recognize, how his early interest in psychology and positive reinforcement evolved into a platform that helps organizations strengthen culture, and why recognition can become contagious when employees feel valued. We also discussed the role of AI, analytics, and technology in helping companies understand employee contributions, maintain connection across distributed teams, and create more meaningful workplace experiences. Here are the highlights:● Recognition drives engagement and retention. Creating a culture where employees feel appreciated can improve morale, strengthen connection, and help organizations retain top talent.● Culture needs intentional systems. Great workplace cultures do not happen by accident; companies need repeatable programs that encourage appreciation, recognition, and positive reinforcement.● Peer-to-peer recognition strengthens teams. Giving employees the ability to recognize each other creates stronger relationships, supports managers, and provides valuable insight into employee contributions.● Technology can bring teams closer together. Recognition platforms integrated into existing workplace tools can help companies maintain connection and culture across locations, time zones, and remote environments.● Founders need resilience and focus. Building a company requires experimenting, learning from what does not work, finding the right partnerships, and staying committed through uncertainty. About the guest: Alex Grande is an entrepreneur and workplace innovation expert who combines gamification, HR technology, and behavioral science to help organizations build stronger, more connected cultures. As the founder of Recognize, a social employee engagement platform, he helps companies improve communication, recognition, and retention through thoughtful design and data-driven strategies. With a background in psychology and experience helping hundreds of organizations implement recognition programs, Alex brings a human-centered approach to creating cultures where employees feel valued and engaged.

Student behavior changed when the adults did: 25 discipline calls a day dropped to about one. Here's the adult-first work behind it. School discipline problems don't start with the kids. Sarah spent years answering 20 to 25 walkie calls a day for escalated students. Tokens, red-light-green-light charts, taking away recess — external systems trying to fix an internal issue. Then she started doing the work on herself first. Ten days into opening a brand-new school this fall, she hasn't answered 12 calls total. Jill Molli has taught Conscious Discipline for 25 years, and she names the leap most principals never make. They'll regulate themselves for a kindergartner. They won't do it for the teacher who yells in the hallway but posts good test scores. Sarah Sicht did it with teachers, parents, and her own superiors. At her previous school, a 100% free-and-reduced-lunch building, that produced zero teacher turnover and a move from the bottom 10% of the state to the top 10% of Title I schools with the same kids and no redistricting. Jill also breaks down SAFE, the four-domain framework Conscious Discipline built by studying principals like Sarah: Sustained leadership, Adult regulation, Foster community, Engaged classroom.

Sarah Tiana on Bourbon, the Boys Club of Comedy, and the Joke She Won't Tell Yet   Actress, stand up comedian, host, broadcaster, and self described baseball fanatic Sarah Tiana joins Drinking During Business Hours over Blackland Bourbon. Hosts Sarah Halstead and Rich Chassler get her take on the one drink she has before every set to loosen up, why she happily takes the opening spot at the Comedy Store, and how marriage and motherhood completely reshuffled her material.    Sarah opens up about growing up between a cow pasture and a sheep farm in Calhoun, Georgia after a Northern California start, the famous college radio station that turned a journalism major into a joke teller, DJing weddings and bar mitzvahs before comedy called, and the Pepperidge Farm dad who turned down the big job to coach her softball team.    Rich shares what it was really like coming up with Mitch Hedberg, Sarah talks about starting comedy in a class with Tom Segura, Anthony Jeselnik, and Christina Pazsitzky, and the three of them get into how Daniel Tosh, Jeselnik, and Bobby Lee quietly protected women in comedy, Chelsea Handler's advice to go be funny and leave, Mitzi Shore's blonde waitress rule, the six year grind to finally get passed at the Comedy Store, and the perfect storm of podcasts, Uber, and Dave Chappelle that made the Store the center of the comedy world again.   Guest Info   Sarah Tiana is a comedian, writer, actress, and sports commentator.

Send us Fan MailWhat if the best nonprofit association growth strategy is to stop obsessing over growth? Lorri Unumb, CEO of the Council of Autism Service Providers (CASP), explains how concentrating on member value, organizational standards, advocacy, and shared infrastructure helped an association that began with roughly a dozen executives grow to about 500 member organizations.CASP began as an informal gathering of autism service-provider executives who simply wanted to exchange ideas and figure out how to deliver better services. It eventually became a formal association in 2016 with a mission centered on cultivating, advocating for, and sharing better practices across the field.The business lesson is remarkably transferable!  “We think constantly about how can we do a better job for our members,” Lorri says. The surprising result? Better service to members became a membership growth strategy.The organization has also scaled dramatically. When Lorri arrived seven years ago, she was CASP's only employee. Today, the organization has 25 full-time staff, allowing specialists to concentrate on government affairs, clinical standards, education, resources, and other member needs.CASP also maintains a firm membership standard: organizations must demonstrate a commitment to evidence-based care. That means membership isn't simply about paying dues, it represents an organizational expectation!COVID provided another lesson in association value. When providers suddenly needed to know whether autism-service workers qualified as essential healthcare workers, CASP was able to obtain legal guidance quickly and distribute it nationally. . . . something individual organizations would have struggled to accomplish independently.Lorri concludes by sharing how CASP is looking ahead toward stronger state-level advocacy and better outcome measures. Key Takeaways:Create member value before chasing membership growth.Shared expertise and infrastructure can accomplish what individual organizations cannot efficiently do alone.Strong membership standards can protect both organizational credibility and mission quality.CASP scaled from one employee to 25 specialized full-time staff as member needs expanded.Engaged boards should lead work—not simply lend names to an organization.Better outcome measurement will increasingly matter when nonprofits must demonstrate value to insurers, government payers, funders, and partners. 00:00:00 — Building an Association During Rapid Change 00:02:49 — How CASP Started With About a Dozen Executives 00:05:24 — Sustainability and Better Member Services 00:05:39 — Growing to Nearly 500 Member Organizations 00:06:17 — Why CASP Doesn't Focus on Recruiting Members 00:08:05 — Holding Members to Evidence-Based Standards 00:09:33 — From Attorney and Parent to Association CEO 00:10:57 — Scaling From One Employee to 25 00:12:11 — How COVID Proved the Value of an Association 00:17:53 — What an Engaged Nonprofit Board Looks Like 00:20:46 — Favors, Fishnets and Facts: Advocacy That Worked 00:24:09 — CASP's Next Strategy: Advocacy and Outcomes #AutismAssociation #AssociationManagement #TheNonprofitShowFind 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

BETTER WAYS TO DATE Hebrews 13:4 Marriage should be honored by ALL, and the marriage bed kept pure, for God will judge the adulterer and all the sexually immoral. (NIV) 1. HONORING MARRIAGE MEANS, DON’T TREAT SOMETHING HOLY LIKE SOMETHING CASUAL Matthew 19:4–6 “Haven’t you read,” he replied, “that at the beginning the Creator ‘made them male and female,’  5 and said, ‘For this reason a man will leave his father and mother and be united to his wife, and the two will become one flesh’? 6 So they are no longer two, but one flesh. Therefore what God has joined together, let no one separate.” (NIV) 2. HONORING MARRIAGE MEANS YOU FOLLOW CHRIST’S STANDARD, NOT CULTURE'S SCRIPT 3. HONORING MARRIAGE MEANS YOU DON'T ACT MARRIED BEFORE YOU ARE MARRIED Matthew 19:4–6 “Haven’t you read,” he replied, “that at the beginning the Creator ‘made them male and female,’ 5 and said, ‘For this reason a man will leave his father and mother and be united to his wife, and the two will become one flesh? 6 So they are no longer two, but one flesh. Therefore what God has joined together, let no one separate.” (NIV) 3A. LEAVING HAPPENS AFTER MARRIAGE 3B. CLEAVING HAPPENS AFTER MARRIAGE Matthew 19:5 And said, ‘For this cause shall a man leave father and mother, and shall cleave to his wife: and they twain shall be one flesh? (KJV) 3C. BECOMING ONE FLESH HAPPENS AFTER MARRIAGE PHYSICAL ONENESS AFTER MARRIAGE Hebrews 13:4 Marriage should be honored by all, and THE MARRIAGE BED KEPT PURE, for God will JUDGE the adulterer and all the sexually immoral. (NIV) 4. HONORING MARRIAGE MEANS YOU DATE FOR DESTINY, NOT JUST DESIRES Matthew 7:16 By their fruit you will recognize them. Do people pick grapes from thornbushes, or figs from thistles? (NIV) 5. HONORING MARRIAGE MEANS YOU DATE TO PROTECT, NOT TO PRESSURE 1 Corinthians 13:4–7 Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. 5 It does not DISHONOR others, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. 6 Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. 7 It always PROTECTS, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres. (NIV) PROTECTION DOESN’T PUSH WHERE GOD HAS NOT PERMITTED! 6. HONORING MARRIAGE MEANS YOU PREPARE FOR COVENANT BEFORE YOU PURSUE COMPANIONSHIP MARRIAGE SHOULD BE HONORED BY ALL

Actor and comedian Patton Oswalt joins Sam to catch up where they left off during the first Trump administration and how they simply can't believe we're doing round two of this shit. They discuss how there's money in outrage and how it drives engagement, and how news channels take advantage of your cortisol levels to keep you engaged with constant alerts of BREAKING NEWS. Patton explains why he no longer interacts with people on X but still can't leave his followers behind, and why they both now mostly use social media to self-soothe, while others are left to raw-dog their boredom. They talk about the need for young nerds to go into politics and what Trump would be doing if Sam was still on TV. A girl can dream!

The Buddha taught a path of awakened living, but how does that manifest in today's world of constant connectivity and widespread suffering? How do we keep our hearts open without being defined or hardened by the pain that surrounds us, whether personal, collective, or historical?

Send us Fan MailHave you ever started a story with your students and felt like everything was going beautifully until you noticed the glazed expressions, delayed responses, and side conversations beginning?It is easy to assume the story is boring or that students simply do not care. But a drop in engagement does not necessarily mean the story failed.In this episode, I sit down with world language educator, author, and presenter Eric Richards to explore how we can use stories and reading to support language acquisition while keeping students engaged.Eric shares how he builds engagement through two essential elements: confidence and curiosity. We also discuss how to make stories more comprehensible, recognize when students' attention is beginning to fade, and respond with quick resets instead of falling into what I call the judgment trap.This conversation is filled with practical, low-prep strategies you can use with any story, reading, proficiency level, or curriculum.✨ TakeawaysWhy comprehension itself can make a story compelling for beginning learners.How confidence and curiosity help students continue listening and reading.Simple ways to add movement, drawing, personalization, and interaction.What to do when you notice student engagement beginning to drop.How to check comprehension without turning every reading into a test.Why the response students give should match the purpose of the activity.

Nick Lloyd continues: by late 1915, commanders on both sides realized that the trench deadlock could not be easily shattered through traditional maneuvers. During the Second Battle of Champagne, the French and Germans engaged in a constant evolution of defensive and offensive technology, with the Germans thickening their lines with pillboxes, machine guns, and barbed wire in response to massive Allied artillery barrages. Lloyd emphasizes that the war's complexity forced a logical but painful shift in thinking as the dream of a grand "shattering breakthrough" faded into a grim reality of local gains. Amidst this carnage, figures like General Castelnau emerged, representing the human side of high command; a deeply religious man who personally suffered the loss of three sons, he serves as a counterpoint to the cliché of "cardboard cutout" generals. This narrative seeks to bring these individuals to life, showing them as humans wrestling with the desolation and horror of a war they could not easily win. (2)MONASH
