Common Core math has a reputation, but what does it actually say? In this first of two episodes on Common Core, we're digging into the math standards to help homeschool parents understand what's expected and how to make sense of the structure. We'll show you how to interpret the standard codes, translate the language into plain English, and use the goals as a springboard for meaningful, hands-on math learning at home. Whether your state follows Common Core or not, this is a practical guide for teaching with confidence.

What does it really mean to be a professional in the pet care industry? In this episode, Jenn Dahinten, Chair of PACCC, joins to explore the importance of third-party certification in setting industry standards. She shares how PACCC was founded to support experienced pet care providers with recognition, ethics, and continuing education. The conversation dives into the rising pressure from legislation, public expectations, and why certification helps build trust with clients and lawmakers alike. Jenn also offers practical steps for those ready to elevate their professionalism. Main topics: Third-party certification vs. online courses Legislative pressure and industry regulation Career progression in pet care The role of ethics and continuing education How professionals can influence legislation Main takeaway: “There is a skill set, both taught and intuitive, that's required to provide care for a pet when their owner is away.”– Jenn Dahinten Too often, pet care is seen as simple or instinctual—just for “animal lovers.” But Jenn Dahinten reminds us that caring for someone else's pet isn't the same as caring for your own. It demands education, experience, and emotional intelligence. Certification through PACCC proves that you take your role seriously, and that you're committed to excellence in your profession. When pet parents leave their pets in our care, they deserve nothing less than a certified professional. About our guest: Jenn Dahinten became the owner, and operator of Royal Pets Hotel and Enrichment in 2009 and founded the charitable “Racers Fund”, for retired service dogs shortly after. Having been a pet parent and client of pet care facilities on four different continents she relished the opportunity to provide the kind of loving care, expertise, and professionalism that she always felt our fur family deserved. Before joining the pet care industry, Jenn first was a paramedic (human). Jenn studied Biochemistry at the University of Guelph, Ambulance and Emergency Care at Conestoga College, and then Advanced Life Support Paramedic (L3) at the University of Natal. During her years of providing air/ground emergency care across continental Africa, Europe, and the UK, Jenn was also active in providing veterinary assistance at local small animal practices and shelters. During a subsequent career in pharmaceutical sales, marketing, and training, Jenn returned to Canada and discovered her calling in the pet care and education industry. From the start, Jenn has been an advocate for fear free practices across grooming and training and has ensured that Royal Pets has been at the forefront of setting the standard in pet care. Royal Pets has been a part of both the IBPSA and The Dog Gurus since their inception and is proud to be an active member of the APDT, Fear Free ™ Organization, and PACCC. Jenn continues to provide education and training opportunities locally and within her industry and continues to champion continuing education, certification, regulation, and professionalism as some of the many necessary means to guarantee our pets get the care and attention they deserve.

Negotiate Anything: Negotiation | Persuasion | Influence | Sales | Leadership | Conflict Management
AI can write, edit, even cast—but it still can't do what made TV legend Bonnie Hammer unstoppable: read the room. In this candid conversation with Kwame Christian, Bonnie unpacks the human meta‑skill behind great leadership and negotiation—reading people and context in real time—and how it powered her “Blue Skies” era at USA & SYFY (Monk, Psych, Burn Notice). She shares why “fake it till you make it” fails (and what to do instead), how to hire for humility and team-first culture, why presence matters (“be in the room”), and how to build a spider‑web career that thrives through industry upheaval, streaming shakeups, and the rise of AI. What you'll learn Reading the room: the irreplaceable skill that beats AI and drives better decisions, deals, and teams. Face it till you make it: Bonnie's upgrade to the old career cliché—and how to apply it immediately. Hiring & culture: spotting humility, collaboration, and truth‑tellers (not cheerleaders). Media shifts: streaming, bundling, budget pressure—and what creators should do now. AI & guardrails: what to protect, what to embrace, and where human storytelling wins. Presence & influence: first impressions, listening deeply, and speaking the language of the room. Mentorship that works: why challenging mentors accelerate growth (Barry Diller story inside).

AI can write, edit, even cast—but it still can't do what made TV legend Bonnie Hammer unstoppable: read the room. In this candid conversation with Kwame Christian, Bonnie unpacks the human meta‑skill behind great leadership and negotiation—reading people and context in real time—and how it powered her “Blue Skies” era at USA & SYFY (Monk, Psych, Burn Notice). She shares why “fake it till you make it” fails (and what to do instead), how to hire for humility and team-first culture, why presence matters (“be in the room”), and how to build a spider‑web career that thrives through industry upheaval, streaming shakeups, and the rise of AI. What you'll learn Reading the room: the irreplaceable skill that beats AI and drives better decisions, deals, and teams. Face it till you make it: Bonnie's upgrade to the old career cliché—and how to apply it immediately. Hiring & culture: spotting humility, collaboration, and truth‑tellers (not cheerleaders). Media shifts: streaming, bundling, budget pressure—and what creators should do now. AI & guardrails: what to protect, what to embrace, and where human storytelling wins. Presence & influence: first impressions, listening deeply, and speaking the language of the room. Mentorship that works: why challenging mentors accelerate growth (Barry Diller story inside).

Back in the day, Trump used to puff up his wealth to get on the Forbes list. Lately though, he doesn't talk about how much money he has, especially now that he and his family have pocketed an estimated $3.4 billion off his time in the White House. The bulk of those billions comes from various crypto-related ventures—and money from foreign nationals and some adjustments at the S.E.C. have helped grease the wheel. At the same time, the Trump Org is making development deals directly with dictators in the Middle East. Meanwhile, his supporters may think they're helping MAGA by buying hats and beer koozies, but their money is all going to Trump. Plus, the European leaders had their flattery game down in the Oval Office on Monday.

Interview with Andrew Ferrier, Managing Director of Global Uranium & EnrichmentRecording date: 23rd July 2025Global Uranium (ASX:GUE) has emerged as a compelling investment opportunity in the rapidly evolving uranium sector, strategically positioned to capitalize on America's growing need for domestic uranium production. Led by managing director Andrew Ferrier, the company has assembled a portfolio of assets and partnerships that address critical gaps in the US nuclear fuel supply chain.The centerpiece of Global Uranium's strategy is the Pine Ridge project, a massive 70,000-acre uranium property in Wyoming's prestigious Powder River Basin. Acquired through a 50/50 joint venture with NASDAQ-listed Snow Lake for US$22.5 million, the project targets 24-51 million pounds of uranium potential, positioning it among the basin's top development opportunities. The strategic location, sitting between Cameco's Smith Ranch facility and Energy Fuels' northern operations, provides exceptional infrastructure advantages and geological confidence.Global Uranium's competitive edge stems from proven permitting expertise that many uranium developers lack. Ferrier's team previously navigated the complex regulatory process to permit the Reno Creek uranium project, bringing rare technical knowledge to an industry where permitting failures have derailed numerous competitors. This expertise has already enabled rapid progress, with exploration permits secured and drilling operations commenced targeting a JORC resource by Q4 2025.The company's investment strategy extends beyond traditional mining through its 22% stake in Ubaryon, a cutting-edge uranium enrichment technology company recently backed by Urenco, the Western world's largest enrichment operator. This partnership validates Ubaryon's chemical enrichment process, which could revolutionize nuclear fuel processing by bypassing traditional conversion steps.With geopolitical tensions highlighting America's dangerous dependence on foreign uranium supplies, Global Uranium's domestic focus aligns perfectly with government priorities for energy security. As Ferrier notes, "The environment is very ripe in the US to support domestic production of US uranium," positioning the company at the forefront of America's uranium renaissance.View Global Uranium and Enrichment's company profile: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/companies/okapi-resources-limitedSign up for Crux Investor: https://cruxinvestor.com

Phil Gervasi sits down with Kentik Product Marketing Manager Eric Hian-Cheong to discuss why data enrichment is the "secret sauce" that turns raw flow logs, metrics, and cloud telemetry into true network intelligence. They explore how tagging telemetry with human-readable context—such as customer names, app IDs, Kubernetes labels, and more—shrinks mean-time-to-insight, empowers cross-team troubleshooting, and lays the groundwork for AI-driven operations.

You've heard it before: “Don't comfort a scared dog, you'll just reinforce the fear.” But… is that true? In this episode of Enrichment for the Real World, Allie and Emily break down the science behind fear, behavior, and reinforcement and why that common advice just doesn't hold up.They'll explore how fear functions differently than you may think, why your emotional state also matters, and how to tell if your pet actually wants your comfort. Plus, you'll learn how to comfort your dog in a way that supports their wellbeing and builds resilience. Whether you're navigating thunderstorms, vet visits, or everyday stressors, this episode is packed with actionable advice for the pet parent who wants to help their pet. TLDL (too long, didn't listen): 1️⃣ Fear is not a behavior and can't be reinforced like oneFear is a physiological and emotional response, not a behavior that can be increased with rewards. However, behaviors associated with fear can be reinforced, which is where people often get confused.2️⃣ Your emotional state matters just as much as your pet's“Your stress travels down the leash” isn't just a cute saying. If you're anxious, your pet likely will be too. Comforting your dog starts with regulating your own nervous system first.3️⃣ Learn when and how to comfort your petSome pets want snuggles, others want space. Comforting isn't a one-size-fits-all approach. Learn how to listen to your learner and become the safe space they need when they are ready for it.For the full episode show notes, including additional resources, join us here.Join our upcoming free live webinar for force-free behavior professionals!3 Strategies to Uplevel Your Consulting Skills to Solve Behavior Challenges: Happier pets, enthusiastic clients, and a more rewarding career using the Pet Harmony Enrichment Framework covers our #1 tip to keep clients happy, working with you, and ultimately referring to you, and so much more.

Whether you're neurodivergent, easily overstimulated, or just someone who really values a quiet house, this episode gives you practical ways to navigate the noise—without sacrificing your sanity or your pet's wellbeing.Because enrichment isn't about trading your discomfort for your pet's comfort. It's about finding solutions that work for everyone. TLDL (too long, didn't listen): 3 Key Takeaways 1️⃣ Sound enrichment is personal – Don't just copy what you see online; test what works for your ears and your pet's comfort.2️⃣ Start with what feels manageable – Consider your own sound preferences and experiment with those before trying anything new.3️⃣ Find middle ground – When your needs and your pet's don't match, use creative solutions or professional guidance to make it work for both of you.For the full episode show notes, including additional resources, join us here.

In this episode, I chat with the founder and managing director of WOW Saddles: David Kempsell. WoW is a revolutionary saddle brand known for its fully adjustable, modular design that supports both horse and rider through every stage of development and performance. We dive into the inspiration behind WoW, the technology that sets it apart (like carbon fiber trees, Flair air flocking, and interchangeable seats and panels) and how this system helps improve comfort, movement, and balance. I've personally ridden in WOW Saddles for over 10 years and have always appreciated their adjustability, comfort, and unique look. Saddle fit is such a personal and important part of horse welfare, and when you find something that works, it's a huge relief. This episode isn't sponsored, I simply love talking about things I genuinely use and believe in. If you're curious about saddle fitting, have a tricky horse to fit, or are tired of trialling saddles that never quite work, you'll enjoy this conversation!

Todd Baylis is the Chief Customer Officer of Bloomerang, a data management system designed to "manage your entire constituent ecosystem, including donors, volunteers, sponsors, grant givers, and more. Your result: higher fundraising revenue and less donor attrition. " Todd joins host Steve Boland to talk about encouraging your audiences (supporters, first-time donors, recurring donors...) to share more information with your charity to improve your connections and outcomes. Todd talks about how much information to ask for at the outset, a willingness to come back to audiences and request more information over time, communications preferences, and much more. Todd emphasizes the maxim that "if it's not in the database, it didn't happen" - meaning an emphasis on recording interactions with community (phone calls, personal meetings, handwritten notes) in a data tool allows a better connection over time.
This week we're diving into the art of asking good questions. This is one of the most powerful tools for building reading comprehension and critical thinking. We'll explore how to model curiosity, guide kids beyond “yes or no” answers, and help them interact with texts in a meaningful way. Whether you've got a brand-new reader or a middle schooler flying through novels, asking better questions can change the way your homeschool approaches reading.
