How do I solve problems? 8. How do I see the world? 9. What are my gifts? The discussion also includes the unique gifts each Enneagram type brings to the world, and analogies that demonstrate how each Type sees the world differently and how to use that information to better understand yourself and others.

Nurse practitioner Surani Hayre-Kwan discusses her article "Are you protecting your career? 5 essential questions about your NP liability insurance." Surani discusses the critical need for nurse practitioners to secure their own professional liability insurance, highlighting how relying solely on employer-provided coverage can leave significant gaps. She provides insights into common pitfalls, such as employer policies often excluding licensing board complaints or having shared liability limits. Surani explains the crucial differences between occurrence and claims-made coverage and the importance of understanding "tail" and "nose" coverage to ensure continuous protection when switching jobs or carriers. She also offers actionable advice on how robust documentation, including adherence to SOAP note standards and careful patient engagement, can serve as a powerful defense against legal challenges. Surani emphasizes that comprehensive malpractice coverage is vital for protecting an NP's license, career, and financial stability. Our presenting sponsor is Microsoft Dragon Copilot.

In part two of our conversation with author Samira Ahmed, we deep dive into the genre of Internment—is it dystopian, speculative, or realistic fiction?—and why that label matters in the classroom. What starts as a conversation about shelving quickly becomes an exploration of how genre influences student thinking, how we can break down subject silos in education, and why teaching through inquiry is more critical than ever. Samira shares insights on the emotional toll of teaching today, the urgency of connecting past and present injustices, and her belief that “teaching is a revolutionary act.” This episode is a reminder of the impact educators have and the power of stories to spark resistance, reflection, and change.Resources:Camp BNTInternment, by Samira AhmedThe Grace Year, by Kim LiggettProphet Song, by Paul LynchRelated Episodes:Episode 155, Powerful Female Voices in YA Lit: An Interview with Yamile Saied MendezEpisode 171, New Dystopian Texts & Supplements for Your ELA ClassroomEpisode 230, Building Trong Writers: An Interview with Author Christina Schnider of The Daring English TeacherEpisode 260, Samira Ahmed: A Conversation About Internment Part 1SHOW NOTES: https://www.bravenewteaching.com/home/episode261"Send us a message - please include your contact information so we can chat soon!"Get your FREE Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs gateway lesson: shop.bravenewteaching.com/cloudyCheck out Curriculum Rehab here!Support the show

On an Essential Football special and only days before Thomas Tuchel becomes the third foreign coach to sit in the home dugout for an England Men's national team game, we're going on a deep dive into why there are so few English coaches at the top of the game.At the start of the Premier League in 1992, only one of the 22 managers was from overseas - and that was Irishman Joe Kinnear.But as the game has grown more global, Englishmen have fallen by the wayside. How do England make sure when they make their next appointment after Tuchel, they have a pool of English coaches to choose from - or is it even possible?Hear from Eddie Howe, Graham Potter, Roy Hodgson, Harry Redknapp and more, as we get to the bottom of why English coaches are on the decline.Watch the accompanying documentary, English Coaches: The Decline, on YouTube or On Demand.Presented by Ron Walker, with Sky Sports News Reporter Rob Dorsett. This episode was produced by Daniel Eales for Sky Sports.

Make sure to email david@parallelfinancial.comFollow us on Instagram Join our FACEBOOK GROUPTakeaways: In times of stock market volatility, it's important to ask how it impacts your personal financial situation. Consider potential opportunities in the market; downturns can lead to undervalued assets worth investing in. Diversification is key; make sure your investments are not overly concentrated in one area or asset class. Evaluate your investment time horizon; long-term investors might tolerate short-term volatility better than short-term ones. Have a solid investment strategy that aligns with your goals and avoid impulsive decisions based on trends. Your financial habits should reflect your long-term goals; prioritize needs over wants to reduce stress. Mentioned in this episode:Weekly Wealth Website

What does it take to ensure a "good death"? Join us as we explore this profound question with our esteemed guest, Susanna Bryan, a transformative figure in end-of-life care. Drawing from her rich experiences as a former hospice and oncology nurse, and founder of the Doula Givers Institute, Susanna offers enlightening insights into making the end-of-life experience more human-centered. Inspired by her volunteer work in Zimbabwe, she advocates for changes in the American system to focus on clarity, comfort, and dignity, and shares the nine essential questions that guide this process. Her journey underscores the importance of presence and a supportive community for those nearing life's end and provides a roadmap to align end-of-life experiences with personal values. This episode delves into the delicate task of discussing end-of-life wishes with loved ones, focusing on maintaining quality of life and ensuring wishes are respected. We recount the heartfelt story of Mary, who faced terminal cancer with grace and celebrated her life through a living funeral. Mary's journey is a testament to the power of prioritizing personal comfort and symptom management over medical interventions. We also explore the role of palliative care in enhancing quality of life, encouraging listeners to consider practical, physical, and emotional preparations for future decisions. Listeners are invited to consider their own end-of-life care preferences, from choosing a healthcare proxy to exploring environmentally friendly body disposition options. We highlight the significance of legal documents like the POLST form in ensuring wishes are followed and emphasize the value of clear communication with family. As we explore alternative end-of-life celebrations, such as body donation and living funerals, we encourage embracing personal choice to honor life and death.

Every year I host an Annual Planning Workshop for my business coaching clients. This is a time for folks to look back at their wins from the past year, do some visioning for the upcoming year, and get crystal clear on the specific strategies and action steps they want to take to be successful in the new year.   As I was leading this workshop in early December, it occurred to me that you all, my lovely leader listeners, could benefit from the same exercises I take my business coaching clients through. In this episode, I walk you through 10 simple, but essential, questions to ask yourself as you plan your upcoming year.   I don't believe in resolutions. I don't believe you need to flip your life upside down and make 734 changes on January 1st. I do believe you need to own wins from the past year so you can see the proof of what you're capable of moving forward. And, I do believe that you should take some time to reflect on what you want to make happen over the course of the next year sometime in the month of January so you can begin to build the necessary momentum to actually accomplish all you want to accomplish in the next year.  Here are the 10 questions I walk you through in this episode: What are my 2024 wins? What do I want more of in 2025? What do I want less of in 2025? What do I want to be most proud of on December 31, 2025? What are my Big 3 for 2025? Why do these Big 3 matter to me? What support do I need to go after and accomplish my Big 3? What will change for me when I attain my Big 3? What are the costs of not attaining these Big 3 this year? What specific steps will I take in the next 90 days to work toward my Big 3? Like many recent years, 2025 will be a year of change, uncertainty, and quite possibly chaos. The more you can be clear on what you want to accomplish, why you want to accomplish it, and how you're going to accomplish it, the more you can stay grounded when the going (inevitably) gets tough.  Happy 2025! You got this and I'm thrilled to be on this journey with you!
