Podcasts about engaging

This week, Jake and Bob welcome Dr. John Bishop, founder of FORGE, to continue their series on healing in men. John shares his perspective on why so many men today lack a clear picture of what it means to be a good man. He begins with the story of Adam, uncovering God's original design for masculinity—one rooted in work, responsibility, and the courage to engage in the world and the people entrusted to him. From there, he describes the wounds men experience from Adam's fall: fear, shame, and the tendency for men to withdraw, hide, or dominate rather than love. Yet, with Jesus Christ as a model, whose life and sacrifice reveal the true strength of a man, they reflect on how men can recover a living image of faithful, engaged, and restored masculinity.   Key Points: There is a widespread struggle to engage men in the life of the Church. A central problem facing men today is the lack of a clear and compelling picture of what it means to be a good man. Without strong masculine examples in families, churches, and schools, many men turn to cultural voices that offer distorted visions of masculinity. Adam is the first image of authentic masculinity and reveals a masculine inclination towards responsibility and stewardship. The Fall reveals a core masculine temptation: disengagement, as Adam remains passive when evil enters the garden. Fear and shame often drive men to withdraw emotionally or hide behind work, distractions, or performance. True masculinity requires engagement with both the external world and the interior life of relationships. Jesus Christ, the New Adam, reveals the ultimate image of masculinity through sacrificial love and radical trust in the Father. Fathers ultimately help their sons become men by guiding them toward the deeper truth that their identity is rooted in being beloved sons of God.   Resources: John's Ministry: Forge New Adam: God's Plan for Men by Dr. John Bishop   Chapters: 00:00 Introduction 07:22 Seeing Our Identity as Son, Brother, Bridegroom, and Father 12:17 What's Going On with Men in Our Current Age? 25:07 Adam: The First Image of Masculinity 35:44 Engaging with the World as a Man 47:38 Learning to Trust the Creator of the Universe   Connect with Restore the Glory:  Instagram: @restoretheglorypodcast  Twitter: @RestoreGloryPod Facebook: Restore the Glory Podcast   Never miss out on an episode by hitting the subscribe button right now!

Pregnancy doesn't just change your life—it transforms your entire biology. Hormones shift, metabolism adapts, nutrient needs increase, and your nervous system recalibrates in ways most women are never fully prepared for. And after birth, the postpartum phase can be one of the most overlooked and underserved stages of a woman's health. In this episode, I answer your most common questions, including: • How to choose the right prenatal vitamins—including why methylated folate matters and the difference between folate and folic acid • Natural ways to manage common pregnancy symptoms like nausea, heartburn, sciatica, and fatigue • Key nutrition strategies during pregnancy to support both mother and baby • What happens during postpartum—from hormone and thyroid shifts to hair loss, immune changes, pelvic floor recovery, and C-section healing Pregnancy and postpartum aren't separate events—they're part of a continuous biological transition that affects hormones, metabolism, and overall health. The goal isn't perfection. It's understanding what your body is going through and supporting it with the right nutrients, habits, and care so you can recover, rebuild, and thrive.

What is the difference between hiring and outsourcing legal support for small law firms? Hiring involves bringing someone into your firm to fill a role, either full-time or part-time. On the other hand, outsourcing entails hiring an external vendor to handle specific functions like marketing, IT, or HR for your firm. The distinction is crucial as outsourcing allows firms to access expertise without the commitment of hiring full-time employees, providing flexibility and cost-effectiveness. How can outsourcing help small law firms overcome bottlenecks and increase efficiency? Smaller law firms often struggle with handling various operational functions such as marketing, IT, and HR due to limited resources and expertise. Outsourcing these functions to external vendors on a fractional or part-time basis can help firms operate more efficiently without the burden of managing full-time employees. By leveraging outsourced roles, firms can access specialized skills, reduce costs, and focus on core legal work and client service. What exercises can law firm owners undertake to evaluate tasks that drain their time and determine whether to outsource them? To identify tasks that consume excessive time and hinder productivity, law firm owners should start by assessing how they allocate their time. By categorizing time spent on client work, marketing, and administrative tasks, owners can determine if certain functions, such as troubleshooting IT issues or managing payroll, are consuming disproportionate amounts of time. Evaluating these tasks can help owners decide whether to hire part-time or outsource these functions to improve efficiency. How can law firm owners streamline the onboarding process for outsourced roles to minimize disruption and maximize effectiveness? The onboarding process for outsourced roles can be time-consuming and challenging, but selecting the right vendors from the beginning is crucial to avoid disruptions later on. Law firm owners can streamline the onboarding process by thoroughly vetting vendors, seeking referrals, and requesting references to assess their track record and compatibility. Engaging in detailed discussions with potential vendors about how they align with the firm’s operations and needs can help ensure a smooth transition and successful collaboration. In what ways can outsourcing legal functions, such as paralegals and legal secretaries, enhance profitability and operational efficiency for law firms? Outsourcing legal functions, such as paralegal and legal secretarial work, can offer law firms flexibility, cost-effectiveness, and access to specialized expertise. Platforms that connect firms with freelance paralegals and legal secretaries, both domestically and internationally, provide options for tailored support based on the firm’s needs. Additionally, outsourcing legal work to contract attorneys or specialized organizations can optimize case management, reduce overhead costs, and improve workflow efficiency, benefiting profitability and allowing attorneys to focus on core legal work and client service. How can law firm owners identify unique opportunities for outsourcing in their specific practice areas to optimize efficiency and client service? Law firm owners can explore outsourcing opportunities based on their practice areas and operational needs to optimize efficiency and client service. By evaluating tasks that are not core to legal practice, such as IT, HR, or marketing, owners can identify areas where outsourcing can enhance operational effectiveness without compromising client experience. Understanding the unique demands of their practice areas and considering outsourcing options tailored to those needs can help law firm owners make informed decisions to streamline operations and drive growth. Conclusion Outsourcing can be a valuable strategy for small law firms to enhance efficiency, reduce operational bottlenecks, and optimize profitability. By carefully evaluating tasks, selecting the right vendors, and leveraging outsourcing opportunities in legal functions, firms can streamline operations, focus on core legal work, and deliver exceptional client service. Ultimately, embracing outsourcing as a strategic approach can empower law firm owners to build successful and sustainable practices.

She shares candidly about her realization that while she loves dance, her true calling lies in nurturing others within that realm, emphasizing the importance of tradition, discipline, and ceremony in ballet education.Robin also explores the complexity of nurturing stars in the performing arts, identifying students who stand out due to their dedication, respect, and ability to absorb corrections. The episode touches on key themes such as the necessity of loving the process over the mere performance and the invaluable life skills acquired through dance training. Gutierrez and Robbins further discuss the challenges of instructing in contemporary times, noting the significance of supporting both students and parents in understanding the demands and rewards of the performing arts.Key Takeaways:Emphasizing tradition and discipline in dance education helps build character and life skills in students.Success in dance and life requires loving the process, not just the performance.Identifying 'stars' involves recognizing students who show eagerness, respect, and a capacity to internalize lessons.The arts provide invaluable experiences for dealing with rejection and persistence, crucial for life's challenges.Engaging parents in the process can enhance children's success and understanding in performing arts education.Notable Quotes:"I love dance, but I don't love to dance. And that's something I've realized is okay for me.""Our students need to learn the joy in the everyday doing of the thing, not just the performance.""The honor of ballet tradition offers something our children really benefit from in today's casual culture.""Students who show up eager to learn and respectfully interact are often those who succeed, in dance and in life.""Parents can play a vital part by resisting the urge to shield their kids from disappointment and instead coach them through it."Connect with Robin Snyder:WebsiteInstagramFacebookConnect with Rudy Mawer:LinkedInInstagramFacebookTwitter

In this episode, host J.J. Mowder-Tinney sits down with Dr. Elizabeth Skidmore, PhD, OTR/L, FACRM, FAOTA, to challenge how we view the "silent epidemic" of cognitive impairments in rehabilitation. They explore moving from traditional "drill and repeat" exercises to Strategy Training. This metacognitive approach helps clients lead their recovery through active learning. You'll discover how the START framework uncovers subtle executive function deficits, supporting greater independence for even complex patients. Learn how slowing down your clinical approach can accelerate patients' return to meaningful community participation.Addendum:This episode discusses Strategy Training for individuals who can learn new skills and generalize them, such as people with acquired brain injury. Dr. Skidmore notes that Strategy Training is not suitable for individuals with moderate to severe dementia or significant clinical apathy. For these populations, clinicians should instead focus on errorless learning and habit training to help maintain structured routines.Learning OutcomesAnalyze the evidence around attention and executive function after acquired brain injuryApply evidence-based, practical strategies to actionably improve rehabilitation outcomes for this populationSolve patient case scenarios focused on achieving community independence and participation after acquired brain injuryTimestamps(00:00:00) Welcome(00:00:05) Introduction to cognitive rehabilitation(00:02:48) Understanding cognitive impairments(00:06:00) Screening and assessment tools(00:08:50) Communicating cognitive changes(00:11:53) Interventions for cognitive impairments(00:15:10) Metacognitive strategies in therapy(00:18:00) Guided discovery in practice(00:20:59) Addressing attention and executive function(00:23:45) Real-life application of strategies(00:28:00) Building client independence(00:33:50) Engaging family in therapy(00:45:30) Impactful takeaways for therapists(00:55:18) Conclusion and reflectionsNeuro Navigators is brought to you by Medbridge.

In this episode I sit down with the SRI Education research team—Dr. Dan Reynolds, Dr. Anna Jennerjohn, and Dr. Sara Rutherford-Quach—to unpack their learning brief, Beyond the Surface. This episode explores the gap between using high-quality instructional materials (HQIM) and achieving deep, robust reading comprehension. Read the Brief Here: https://www.sri.com/publication/education-learning-pubs/beyond-the-surface-leveraging-high-quality-instructional-materials-for-robust-reading-comprehension/ Quick Summary: Actionable advice for coaches and school leaders to build systems that support genuine meaning-making in the classroom. The Study: Analyzed 111 comprehension lessons across districts with mature HQIM implementation and surveyed 500+ teachers. The Central Finding: While HQIM was consistently used, 64% of lessons focused only on surface-level objectives (completing tasks) rather than robust comprehension (building a mental model). Episode Highlights: Defining the crucial distinction between Surface and Robust comprehension. Introducing the 6 high-leverage instructional practices that move the needle toward deep understanding.

What does it mean to carry a culture in your hands — and in your sound? In this intimate and cinematic conversation, Michael sits down with Tara Connaghan, an award‑winning Irish traditional fiddler, educator, podcaster, and cultural storyteller from County Donegal. Tara's life is shaped by music, memory, landscape, and the deep-rooted traditions of Ireland's northwest coast.Together, we explore the emotional and historical threads woven into Irish traditional music — from the ancient tunes passed down through generations to the modern artists keeping the tradition alive. Tara shares stories of growing up in Donegal, the mentors who shaped her, the unique regional styles of Irish fiddle playing, and the spiritual connection between music, identity, and place.Takeaways:The essence of Irish traditional music lies in its deep emotional and historical connections, reflecting the intricate relationship between culture, landscape, and identity.Tara Connaghan's journey as a fiddler exemplifies how personal experiences and communal traditions shape artistic expression and belonging.Irish music sessions serve as communal spaces where unspoken rules govern participation, emphasizing the importance of listening and awareness in fostering connection.Through storytelling and music, individuals find healing and a sense of belonging, demonstrating the universal power of sound to transcend cultural boundaries.Mentorship and community play pivotal roles in preserving cultural heritage, as seen in Tara's upbringing in Donegal and her dedication to teaching.Engaging with music requires a balance of humility and confidence, as newcomers learn to navigate the dynamics of communal musical expression.This is a warm, lyrical, deeply human conversation — one that invites you to slow down, listen closely, and feel the heartbeat of a culture through the hands of one of its finest carriers.One more insight.

Luck seems random and unpredictable, but Tina Seelig's message is that luck is something you can control and improve. And when you improve your luck, it will increase your creative potential. In this episode, we talk about Seelig's new book, What I Wish I Knew About Luck, and the mindsets and daily practices associated with luck and creativity. Winning the lottery is pure chance, but that's not the kind of luck we're talking about. This episode doesn't tell you how to pick the winning number. Seelig's book is about how to live a life where luck consistently comes to you. We've often hear the cliche, "luck is when preparation meets opportunity." But what does it mean to prepare for luck? That's where Seelig's book comes in. She goes beyond the cliches to give you actionable advice.  Takeaways Luck is not just chance; it can be cultivated. Building relationships is key to creating opportunities. Creativity and problem-solving are essential for luck. Mindset and resilience play a significant role in luck. Engaging with the world increases your chances of luck. Luck is a long-term game; it requires patience.

In this episode of the Planet MicroCap Podcast, I'm joined by Artem Fokin, Founder and Portfolio Manager of Caro-Kann Capital, to reflect on more than a decade of running a concentrated small- and micro-cap strategy focused on finding multibagger opportunities. Artem shares how his bottoms-up approach centers on deeply understanding a handful of businesses, engaging thoughtfully with management teams while maintaining the discipline to stay objective—what he calls being “friendly, but not friends.” We also discuss why due diligence should extend beyond the CEO to the entire leadership bench, why microcaps remain one of the best training grounds for investors despite structural market changes, and how avoiding intellectual rigidity—while embracing tools like AI for research—can help investors continuously adapt and improve their decision-making. We mention several companies and sectors during this conversation, and I'm not a shareholder in any of them.

In this episode of the Gladden Longevity Podcast, Dr. Jeffrey Gladden and neurologist Dr. Majid Fotuhi discuss building an "Invincible Brain." Challenging the myth that cognitive decline is inevitable, Dr. Fotuhi outlines five pillars—exercise, sleep, nutrition, stress management, and brain training, proven to increase brain volume and neuroplasticity. The discussion highlights how racket sports and balance training activate the cerebellum to boost overall function and reduce Alzheimer's risk. By consistently challenging the nervous system, you can shift the aging paradigm, achieving mental sharpness and vitality well into your 80s and 90s.

Kids ministry has never been just about filling a room or filling time. It's about building disciples—starting with the youngest hearts in our churches and extending outward to families and communities.In this conversation, Steve Hampel brings decades of wisdom from serving faithfully in kids ministry. What I appreciate most about Steve is his steady conviction that healthy ministry begins with healthy leadership. Programs matter. Events matter. Resources matter. But leaders matter most.Steve shares how intentional leadership development has shaped his ministry philosophy. Rather than focusing solely on recruiting volunteers to meet immediate needs, he challenges us to invest in people for the long haul—raising up leaders who can shepherd kids, partner with parents, and strengthen the local church.We also talk about the strategic role of events. When done thoughtfully, events aren't just calendar fillers. They can be powerful entry points for families who may never walk through the doors otherwise. From seasonal outreaches to creative community initiatives, Steve reminds us that excellence and intentionality open doors for gospel conversations.Another key theme in our discussion is stewardship. We live in a time when ministry resources are abundant—curriculum, digital tools, media, and creative assets. The challenge is not access, but alignment. Steve encourages leaders to use resources wisely and purposefully, always asking: Does this support our mission? Does this help us disciple kids and equip families?One of the most encouraging parts of this conversation is hearing Steve reflect on serving alongside his wife. Ministry is not meant to be isolated. The partnership, prayer, and shared calling in their home have strengthened both their family and their ministry. It's a reminder that our first ministry is often right under our own roof.Finally, we explore the impact of media in today's ministry landscape. While digital tools have transformed how we communicate and connect, Steve emphasizes that relationships remain at the center. Technology can amplify the message—but it can never replace presence. Community engagement still happens through conversations, trust, and showing up consistently.If you serve in kids ministry, lead volunteers, or care deeply about reaching the next generation, this episode will encourage you to think strategically, lead intentionally, and serve faithfully.Because when we build leaders, partner with families, and engage our communities, we are not just running a ministry—we are shaping the future of the church.Connect with Lifeway Kids Leave us a voice message here with any questions or feedback!

In this episode of the Covenant Eyes Podcast, hosts Karen Potter and Rob are joined by Laurie Krieg, Director of Parent Programs and Discipleship at the Center for Faith, Sexuality & Gender. Laurie shares from over a decade of ministry experience engaging conversations around human sexuality, parenting, and the gospel — all while raising three children of her own.Laurie opens up about her personal story, including wrestling with same-sex attraction and childhood sexual abuse, and explains how the gospel anchors her approach to parenting in today's complicated cultural landscape. Rather than leading with panic or fear, she encourages parents to begin with God's good design and build conversations from a place of confidence in Christ.Together, they explore how families can move beyond a theology of “no” toward a theology of “yes” — focusing on purpose, mission, and the beauty of God's created intent. This conversation offers practical language, real-life parenting examples, and hope for moms and dads who feel overwhelmed by cultural messages surrounding marriage, identity, and technology.Episode Topics Discussed• Laurie's personal story and ministry journey• Engaging conversations about sexuality with theological faithfulness and courageous love• Why the gospel must be the foundation for parenting• Shifting from panic-driven responses to purpose-driven discipleship• Teaching kids that their mission is to glorify God and advance His kingdom• Practical, age-appropriate ways to talk about marriage and God's design• Helping children respond with both truth and love• Navigating parental shame and personal brokenness• How churches and parents can use shared gospel language• Encouragement for overwhelmed parents facing cultural pressureResources MentionedRaising Wise Kids in a Sexually Broken World by Laurie Krieg- https://lauriekrieg.com/resources/raising-wise-kids/ Center for Faith, Sexuality & Gender- https://centerforfaith.com/ The Hole in My Heart Podcast (Laurie & Matt Krieg)- https://lauriekrieg.com/podcast/why-hole-in-my-heart/ Timestamps00:00 – Leading Through Weakness & Rejecting Shame00:18 – Welcome & Introduction to Laurie Krieg01:17 – Laurie's Story & Ministry Background03:30 – Anchoring Parenting in the Gospel05:02 – Responding to a Sexually Broken Culture10:05 – Technology, Cultural Narratives & Fortifying Children16:33 – Navigating Parental Shame & Personal Brokenness21:56 – Overview of the Book & Key Takeaways23:56 – How Churches Can Equip Parents27:33 – The Hole in My Heart Podcast29:41 – Final Encouragement for ParentsSend us your feedback!Try Covenant Eyes for FREE today!Use Promo Code: FreePodcast © 2024 Covenant Eyes, All Rights Reserved

In this episode of the Planet MicroCap Podcast, I'm joined by Jim Zimmerman, Founder & Fund Manager, and Abby Zimmerman, Research Analyst, of Lowell Capital Management to talk about their disciplined small-cap strategy built around what they call the “Fort Knox” balance sheet. At its core, it's about owning resilient, cash-generative businesses with little to no debt—companies that can not only survive volatility but use it to their advantage. We dive into why they focus on operating cash flow over EBITDA, how they hunt for overlooked “boring” niche leaders trading at value prices, what they look for in management teams, and why constant re-underwriting—“buy and homework,” not just buy and hold—is critical to long-term compounding in microcaps. We mention several companies and sectors during this conversation, and I'm not a shareholder in any of them.
