In this episode, I sit down with Darius Goldman, founder of Career Bond, to expose the biggest enrollment killer—lack of financing options. Schools aren't just losing students; they're losing revenue because marketing, admissions, and financial aid teams are stuck fighting a battle they can't win without the right tools.Darius shares his journey from Meratas to Career Bond and why he's doubling down on solving this problem. We break down the brutal reality of the enrollment funnel—students want to enroll, but without flexible funding options, they disappear. We discuss the direct impact on lead conversion, the student journey, and how schools can flip the script by offering smarter financing solutions.We also get real about pushback—what went wrong with Meratas, concerns about Career Bond, and why institutions need to rethink their approach before they bleed out more enrollments. If you're in marketing, admissions, or financial aid, this episode is your wake-up call. Tune in and take notes!

Episode 69: Six Years in a 24/7 Dom/sub marriage In this episode, we reflect on six years since the beginning of our Dom/sub dynamic. When we began this journey together, we were already 8 years deep into a very vanilla, and very unconscious relationship. And the process of integrating power exchange dynamics into our marriage has made every part of our relationship better. We had to learn new skills. Unlearn old ways of connecting and experiencing intimacy, and find a deeper, more honest, transparent way of relating each other in order to make D/s work. We've experienced such drastic improvements in every part of our relationship as a Dom/sub couple, compared to our relationship as it was before. Power exchange, and Dominance and submission, have led to better communication, relationships with ourselves, ability to speak up and express our true desires with each other, brought us closer together, reignited our sex life, more respect for ourselves and each other, healing from past traumas, and so much more. Tune into this episode and witness how these power exchange dynamics have improved a marriage and brought us to new levels of intimacy, passion, and connection, even after 14 years of marriage and commitment.

Crisis Alert: Navigating Plan Closures and Provider Disruptions As agents in the ever-evolving landscape of Medicare, staying ahead of substantial changes is critical. The latest episode of Insurance Business Babes tackled urgent and pressing issues of plan closures and provider disruptions, highlighted by hosts Kathe Kline and Joanna Wyckoff. This year, Kathe Kline faced the daunting reality of 18 Medicare plans closing in her area. It's not just about informing clients; it's about comprehensive client care. Preceding the Annual Enrollment Period (AEP), Kathe's assistant diligently sent out notifications and made follow-up calls to ensure that no client was left uninformed. Kathe emphasized transparency, informing clients that certain actions, like using a guaranteed issue letter, meant she wouldn't earn a commission. Ensuring clients grasped the gravity of their choices was crucial in maintaining trust and service integrity. Adding another layer of complexity, some clients are also facing hospital and provider exits from networks. Joanna Wyckoff shared her experience with an entire county's primary hospital system severing ties with a major insurance provider. These disruptions don't come with guaranteed issue rights, complicating the scenario significantly. The urgency is palpable—clients are in a scramble to either switch plans or face out-of-network costs. These cases illuminate the importance of proactive client communication and a robust contingency strategy. Both hosts highlighted the profound impact automation has had on their business processes. Joanna discussed her success with bulk emailing Scope of Appointments (SOA) through her imo software, saving valuable time and avoiding the tiresome click-after-click manual method. Meanwhile, Kathe embraced creating automated systems for her client management, notably processing Facebook group requests efficiently through integrated software solutions. Artificial Intelligence (AI) is making notable inroads, although it remains a field of cautious optimism. Joanna's exploration of AI-driven voice assistants showcased potential but also flagged latency issues that might be disconcerting for clients. For now, AI is intriguing, perhaps not yet ready for prime time in customer-facing roles, but it is certainly worth keeping a pulse on advancements. In an environment replete with changes, an agent's responsiveness, streamlined operations, and ensuring they communicate effectively with clients are paramount. Plan closures and provider exits might be the current storm, but embracing automation and staying adaptable ensures agents like Kathe and Joanna can navigate such challenges efficiently and maintain their hallmark of exceptional client service.

The modernization of Benson Polytechnic High School is nearing completion. Originally budgeted for $202 million in 2016 and funded by a voter-approved bond in 2017, the scope of the project was subsequently expanded along with the cost. The revised budget, partially paid for through another bond in 2020, was $410 million. Part of the problem is that the school is oversized. Benson enrollment last year was 823, but the new school was designed for 1,700. Enrollment has decreased by almost 50% over the past 30 years, and there is little chance that it will grow significantly. Many of the classrooms will simply be mothballed. The next school up for modernization is Jefferson High School, and the Board plans to make the same mistake. The target enrollment is 1,700, but there were only 481 students in May. The construction budget has grown from $311 million in 2020 to $491 in 2024. Since the District doesn't have the money, the Board plans to ask for an additional $125 million in May of 2025, as part of a much larger bond request of $2.9 billion. School board members are required to manage public funds as a “prudent person” would, but overbuilding schools by 100% or more is the opposite of prudent behavior.

The Justice Minister's looking at rolling back the option to enrol on election day.   An Auditor-General report's identified multiple errors with the vote counting process, including miscounts, data entry mistakes, and the misplacement of one ballot box, which was not counted.   It's also found the official result was rushed through within a few hours on the day it was announced.   Paul Goldsmith told Mike Hosking that New Zealand is one of the only countries that allows people to enrol to vote on election day.   He says that applies enormous pressure to the system and is why it took three weeks to count the votes last election, and mistakes were made.  LISTEN ABOVE See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

There are many tough decisions on the horizon for Michigan school districts. Schools are facing massive sums of federal pandemic relief funds ending at the same time that many they are facing declining enrollment, partially also due to the pandemic. Approximately 50% of K-12 budgets are allocated on staff salaries, with another 20% to 30% allocated for benefits. Added together, salaries and benefits – people -- account for about $4 out of every $5 dollars in school budgets, spread across a variety of programs. Not surprisingly, many, many districts used the additional resources to grow their staffing, leading to what will now be exceedingly tough decisions on staffing levels. Bridge Michigan education speaks with Council Research Director Craig Thiel about his recent papers on this imminent, critical issue and what we can expect from school district budgets for the coming year. They discuss how districts programmed federal (and state) pandemic resources over the last three years as they crafted their budgets. They speculate about the number of districts who accounted for the limitations of the one-time federal funding and that the federal deadline for allocating it all is this September. They also discuss how parents and members of school communities can get involved and get engaged in the process. This includes everything from reviewing and looking for spending red flags in public documents online, such as schools' budgets past and present, as well as financial statements, to attending their local school board meetings where budgets get adopted. Even better: attending their local school or district finance committee or budget committee meeting, where budget proposals are crafted. Other “red flag” warnings in budgets include a reliance on Rainy Day funds to support operations. While this is justifiable when needed – to transition to a new budget norm – Rainy Day funds are not designed to support ongoing programming in a district because those one-time resources will run out too. Districts with stronger Rainy Day fund balances will not have as many, if any, painful cuts. Those that don't have a robust Rainy Day fund and used federal pandemic resources for ongoing costs are going to be challenged. For example: districts that allocated pandemic funds to one-time programming or services – facility upgrades, equipment and curricula purchases – will not face as many, if any, painful cuts.

Inglewood Unified School District currently has 16 schools serving approximately 7,000 students, down from 18,000 students in 2002. Long troubled financially, the district has been in state receivership since 2012. In response to declining enrollment and significant debt obligations (the district owes the state $21 million), Inglewood Unified announced last week that it will close three TK-6 grade schools, Crozier Junior High, and Morningside High School. State-appointed County Administrator James Morris outlined these changes in a letter to parents, staff, and students, saying “These are not easy decisions to make. The time has come to make decisions. The data tells the story and the time for action is now.” Joining us to discuss is James Morris, county administrator of Inglewood Unified School District.

Enrollments at public schools continues to drop, drastically in some districts. The causes are numerous: population declines, lower birth rates, and the move to charter, private and home schooling.

All state residents from new high school graduates to adults enrolling part-time will be eligible regardless of family income. The program is also open to immigrants regardless of their immigration status. 一項新的州法在兩黨罕見合作下通過，將州預算的1%用於支付公立大學、社區大學與部落學院的學費。所有州民，從剛畢業的高中生到參加兼職教育的成人都有資格參加，無論家庭收入。該計畫也向移民開放，無論他們的移民身分如何。 Some legislators and other critics question whether there should have been income caps and whether the state, newly flush with oil and gas revenue, can secure long-term funding to support the program beyond its first year. The legislation, which seeks to treat college as a public resource similar to primary and secondary education, takes effect in July. 一些議員和其他批評人士質疑是否應設所得限制，以及剛獲大量石油與天然氣收入的該州是否能在計畫實施第一年後，獲得長期資金支持。這項立法將於7月生效，旨在將大學視為與中小學教育類似的公共資源。 Although nearly half the states have embraced similar initiatives that seek to cover at least some tuition expenses for some students, New Mexico's law goes further by covering tuition and fees before other scholarships and sources of financial aid are applied, enabling students to use those other funds for expenses such as lodging, food or child care. 儘管近半的州已採取類似舉措，想幫一些學生支付至少部分學費和雜費，新墨西哥州法律更進一步，在申請其他獎學金和學費補助前，先支付學雜費，讓學生能使用其他資金，支付如住宿、食物或兒童照顧等費用。 “The New Mexico program is very close to ideal,” said Michael Dannenberg, vice president of strategic initiatives and higher education policy at the nonprofit advocacy group Education Reform Now. Considering the state's income levels and available resources, he added that New Mexico's program is among the most generous in the country. 非營利倡議組織Education Reform Now策略倡議暨高教政策副總裁丹能貝格說：「新墨西哥的計畫非常貼近理想。」他表示，考量收入水準與可用資源，新墨西哥州的計畫是全美最慷慨的。 Dannenberg emphasized that New Mexico is going beyond what larger, more prosperous states like Washington and Tennessee have already done. Programs in other states often limit tuition assistance to community colleges, exclude some residents because of family income or impose conditions requiring students to work part time. 丹能貝格強調，新墨西哥州正超越華盛頓和田納西這些更大、更繁榮的州所做的事。其他州通常限制對社區大學的學費補助，因家庭收入排除一些州民，或要求學生兼職。Source article: https://udn.com/news/story/6904/6329103 Next Article Topic: Colleges Slash Budgets in the Pandemic,With ‘Nothing Off-Limits' Ohio Wesleyan University is eliminating 18 majors. The University of Florida's trustees last month took the first steps toward letting the school furlough faculty. The University of California, Berkeley, has paused admissions to its doctoral programs in anthropology, sociology and art history. 美國俄亥俄衛斯理大學取消了18個科系。佛州大學董事會9月採取初步措施，目標是讓校方有權放教師無薪假。柏克萊加州大學則暫停招收人類學、社會學和藝術史的博士班學生。 As it resurges across the country, the coronavirus is forcing universities large and small to make deep and possibly lasting cuts to close widening budget shortfalls. By one estimate, the pandemic has cost colleges at least $120 billion, with even Harvard University, despite its $41.9 billion endowment, reporting a $10 million deficit that has prompted belt tightening. 由於全美各地新冠肺炎疫情再度惡化，美國各大學不論規模大小，都被迫大砍支出，以彌補逐漸擴大的預算缺口，刪減的支出可能長期都不會恢復。有人估計，疫情至少使美國各大學合計損失1200億美元，就連坐擁419億美元辦學基金的哈佛大學也出現1000萬美元預算赤字，被迫勒緊褲帶。 The persistence of the economic downturn is taking a devastating financial toll, pushing many to lay off or furlough employees, delay graduate admissions and even cut or consolidate core programs like liberal arts departments. 經濟持續疲軟造成極其嚴重的財務災情，迫使許多大學裁員或放無薪假，推遲研究所學生入學，甚至取消或合併文科等核心學程。 The University of South Florida announced last month that its College of Education would become a graduate school only, phasing out undergraduate education degrees to help close a $6.8 million budget gap. In Ohio, the University of Akron, citing the coronavirus, successfully invoked a clause in its collective-bargaining agreement in September to supersede tenure rules and lay off 97 unionized faculty members. 南佛州大學上個月宣布，其教育學院將只留下研究所，分階段取消大學部，以彌補680萬美元的預算缺口。在俄亥俄州，艾克朗大學以疫情為由，在9月成功援用團體協約一項條款取代任期規則，裁掉97名加入工會的教師。 “We haven't seen a budget crisis like this in a generation,” said Robert Kelchen, a Seton Hall University associate professor of higher education who has been tracking the administrative response to the pandemic. “There's nothing off-limits at this point.” 西東大學高等教育副教授柯爾欽一直在關注校方對疫情的反應，他說：「這是一個世代以來從未見過的預算危機，在這種關頭，沒有什麼不能碰。」 Even before the pandemic, colleges and universities were grappling with a growing financial crisis, brought on by years of shrinking state support, declining enrollment, and student concerns with skyrocketing tuition and burdensome debt. Now the coronavirus has amplified the financial trouble systemwide, though elite, well-endowed colleges seem sure to weather it with far less pain. 早在疫情爆發前，美國大專院校就為日益嚴重的財務危機而掙扎，原因是州政府補助日漸減少，學生註冊數下滑而且介意學費高漲和學貸負擔沉重，如今，疫情擴大了整個高教體系財務問題，不過，辦學基金厚實的菁英大學似乎可度過難關，且承受的痛苦會少得多。 “We have been in aggressive recession management for 12 years — probably more than 12 years,” Daniel Greenstein, chancellor of the Pennsylvania State System of Higher Education, told his board of governors as they voted to forge ahead with a proposal to merge a half-dozen small schools into two academic entities. 賓州高等教育體系董事會表決通過，大力推動將6個小規模學院併為兩個學術單位，當時總校長葛林斯坦對董事會說：「我們積極從事於衰退問題管理已有12年，應該還不止12年。」 Source article: https://paper.udn.com/udnpaper/POH0067/359091/web/ Next Article Topic: Remember the MOOCs? After Near-Death, They're Booming Sandeep Gupta, a technology manager in California, sees the economic storm caused by the coronavirus as a time “to try to future-proof your working life.” So he is taking an online course in artificial intelligence. 美國加州科技業經理古普塔認為，新冠肺炎引發的經濟風暴是「防止職業生涯被未來淘汰」的時機，所以修讀了一門關於人工智慧的線上課程。 Dr. Robert Davidson, an emergency-room physician in Michigan, says the pandemic has cast “a glaring light on the shortcomings of our public health infrastructure.” So he is pursuing an online master's degree in public health. 密西根州急診室醫師戴維森說，疫情「使我們公衛基礎設施的弱點顯而易見」，所以他在修讀線上公衛碩士學位。 Children and college students aren't the only ones turning to online education during the coronavirus pandemic. Millions of adults have signed up for online classes in the past two months, too — a jolt that could signal a renaissance for big online learning networks that had struggled for years. 在新冠肺炎大流行期間轉而接受線上教育者，不限於兒童和大學生。過去兩個月，數以百萬計的成人也註冊參加線上課程，這令人驚訝的事實可能意味苦撐多年的大型線上學習網路即將再起。 Coursera, in which Gupta and Davidson enrolled, added 10 million new users from mid-March to mid-May, seven times the pace of new sign-ups in the previous year. Enrollments at edX and Udacity, two smaller education sites, have jumped by similar multiples. 古普塔與戴維森註冊的Coursera，從3月中旬到5月中旬增加1000萬新用戶，是去年同期新增註冊人數的七倍。edX與Udacity這兩個規模較小的教育網站，新註冊人數也以類似倍數暴增。 “Crises lead to accelerations, and this is best chance ever for online learning,” said Sebastian Thrun, a co-founder and chairman of Udacity. Udacity共同創辦人兼董事長史朗說：「危機導致改變加速發生，這是線上學習業未曾遇過的最佳良機。」 Coursera, Udacity and edX sprang up nearly a decade ago as high-profile university experiments known as MOOCs, for massive open online courses. They were portrayed as tech-fueled insurgents destined to disrupt the antiquated ways of traditional higher education. But few people completed courses, grappling with the same challenges now facing students forced into distance learning because of the pandemic. Screen fatigue sets in, and attention strays. Coursera、Udacity和edX近十年前出現，嘗試與大學合作推出線上課程而備受矚目，這類課程名為 「大規模開放線上課程」，簡稱「磨課師」。這種課程被描述為獲得科技支持的反叛者，意在顛覆傳統高等教育過時的授課方式。不過，很少有人能修完課程，這些人窮於應付的挑戰，與目前因為疫情被迫遠距學習的學生一樣。長時間盯著螢幕造成疲勞，而且注意力難以集中。 But the online ventures adapted through trial and error, gathering lessons that could provide a road map for school districts and universities pushed online. The instructional ingredients of success, the sites found, include short videos of six minutes or less, interspersed with interactive drills and tests; online forums where students share problems and suggestions; and online mentoring and tutoring. 不過這些線上企業透過反覆試驗來調整，並且積聚了可供被迫線上授課的學區和大學參考的知識和經驗。這些網站發現，線上授課成功的要素包括：短片時間不超過6分鐘，穿插互動練習和測驗；設立線上論壇，讓學生提出問題和建議；並提供線上指導和輔導。 A few top-tier universities, such as the University of Michigan and the Georgia Institute of Technology, offer some full degree programs through the online platforms. 有幾所頂尖大學，如密西根大學和喬治亞理工學院，透過這些線上平台提供一些正式學位學程。 While those academic programs are available, the online schools have tilted toward skills-focused courses that match student demand and hiring trends. 這些線上學校雖提供學術性學程，卻更傾向開設符合學生需要和雇用趨勢的技能課程。 The COVID-19 effect on online learning could broaden the range of popular subjects, education experts say. But so far, training for the tech economy is where the digital-learning money lies. With more of work and everyday life moving online — some of it permanently — that will probably not change. 教育專家指出，新冠肺炎可能會使線上課程熱門科目範圍變得更廣。不過到目前為止，針對科技經濟提供的訓練課程，才是數位教學業的金雞母。隨著更多的工作和日常生活轉移到線上進行，有些是永遠轉到線上，這種情況大概不會改變。 Source articles: https://paper.udn.com/udnpaper/POH0067/354879/web/

The state of Wisconsin is expanding farmland preservation agreements and increasing the tax credits. Farmland Preservation is a voluntary program that started in the 70s. It gives financial incentives for farmers to keep their land in production while preserving soil and water quality. Some of the new changes in recently passed legislation are that the time commitment to the program is shorter and the financial incentive is higher. Farmland Preservation Program Manager Tim Jackson says there's room for more farmers to enroll with only about 20% of eligible acres in a preservation program. Farmland Preservation Program Manager Wednesday Coye says she hopes these changes will help boost enrollment numbers. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Online marketing strategies you can use for a wildly successful course launch Warning: This episode is juicy.  And when I say juicy, I mean jam-packed with online marketing strategies that you can use to boost enrollments for your digital course in a really big way.  In fact, these are the exact strategies that I used for my most recent Digital Course Academy launch, and let me tell you, they are *fire.* If you've been with me for a while, you know that our previous DCA launch left us a little underwhelmed, so for this most recent one, we decided to shake things up a little bit.  We made tweaks to our marketing, community, and customer support strategies, and holy smokes, I'm so glad that we did. In this episode, you're going to get all the strategic details on the pivots we made  – down to the why, the how, and the results.  You'll also learn how you can apply the lessons we learned to your own business, whether you've had zero course launches, or a handful of them.  What you're about to hear will help you to plan a wildly successful launch, or majorly enhance the one you already have planned – Scout's honor! P.S. You're definitely going to want to take notes on this one. So open up that Google Doc and get ready to type your heart out!  Here's a glance at this episode... [03:00] I'm revealing a few strategies that we made in my September Digital Course Academy launch that made all the difference.  [05:41] We moved the pre-launch runway quiz to the top of the funnel. We also moved away from scheduled Facebook Live videos. [06:07] Some of our best ad costs are from quiz leads.Putting the quiz at the top of the funnel allowed us to fill up our list with great leads. [11:10] I offered three different surprise Lives hosted on Zoom. Each one had a different call to action at the end.  [19:32] Sometimes I try marketing strategies that make me feel a little anxious. I'm willing to get feedback and then evaluate how I feel about certain strategies. [23:03] We made three big changes to our Facebook community.  [31:16] We were able to completely pivot our customer experience on the fly. That's why I always say leave room for magic.

Jessica Norris (my old school friend and workmate) had no interest in learning to run. From a young age, she told herself (and was told) a story about her size and ability. That's why I was desperate for Jess to test it out. Run With Turia is an inclusive running program, for all women, no matter their size, background, or starting point. This episode is about what happened next for Jess and how she transformed, in so many ways. Running isn't about being fast. It's not even about looking great in activewear. It's about showing up. Taking time for yourself. Then building on that confidence a little bit every day. You will surprise yourself. Enrollments for my running program close TODAY, Jan 24.
