Are you struggling to pull your family together to create a working support system for someone living with dementia? Do you find family members disagreeing on what needs to be done or how to help? You're not alone, and there's a path forward. We are Sue Ryan and Nancy Treaster. As caregivers for our loved ones with Alzheimer's and other types of dementia, we've learned that transforming family dynamics into effective teamwork is one of the most challenging—yet most rewarding—aspects of the caregiving journey. In this episode, we spoke with Dr. Barry Jacobs, a clinical psychologist and family therapist who brings both professional expertise and personal caregiving experience to this conversation. Barry cared for his mother with vascular dementia and his stepfather with Alzheimer's disease for seven years, and he co-authored the AARP Caregiver Answer Book with his wife, psychologist Julia Mayer.

In the 930th episode of the PokerNews Podcast, Chad Holloway and Mike Holtz are joined by 2024 World Poker Tour (WPT) World Champion Scott Stewart at Level 9 Studios in Las Vegas. The trio offers an update regarding the home game fight between Maurice Hawkins and aggressor Eugene Castaneda, namely a warrant out for the latter. They then dissect the controversial hand played by Ryan Depaulo, Andre Moreira, and James Caputo in the 2025 World Series of Poker (WSOP) Paradise $25K Super Main Event. Who was in the right? Who was in the wrong? Speaking of that tournament, Jesse Lonis made a big fold that sparked a heated rivalry with Shaun Deeb. Even Daniel Negreanu weighed in with his thoughts about the play. Speaking of Kid Poker, he fired away in the Super Main Event, which shed light on so many poker pros firing multiple bullets into the uniquely-structured tournament. Some players fired 11, 12, and even 14 bullets throughout the various flights. Is it good or bad for poker? How might recreational players interpret it? Down in the Bahamas, Charlie Hook, Koray Aldemir, Joao Simao, David Coleman, and Aleksejs Ponakovs have all captured gold bracelets, while Matan Krakow took down the EPT Prague Main Event. From there, it's over to the WPT World Championship at Wynn Las Vegas, where the WPT Prime final table is set, Lily Lofty took down the WPT Ladies Championship, and a new WPT Ambassador was named in the special Mystery Quest event. Finally, Jonathan Little is coming out with a new book, so we thought it'd be a good time for another giveaway. It's your chance to win a copy of Little's book 100 Essential Tips.

Are you feeling overwhelmed by the complexity of dementia care? Do you find yourself wishing you had more support navigating medical decisions and planning for the future? You're not alone - and there's specialized help available that many caregivers don't fully understand. We are Sue Ryan and Nancy Treaster. As caregivers for our loved ones with Alzheimer's and other types of dementia, we both wish we had understood what palliative care is and how to leverage it earlier in our journeys. Unfortunately, when palliative care was first explained to us, it was explained incorrectly, and neither of us took advantage of all the great things palliative care has to offer. We recently spoke with Dawn Kolderman, a registered nurse and Senior Clinical Director of Palliative Care Services at Avow, who has more than 30 years of nursing experience with the last 20 focused on palliative and hospice care. Dawn shared invaluable insights about palliative care that we wish we had known sooner.

Palliative care is a holistic approach to a life-limiting disease. This includes dementia — which is indeed a life-limiting disease. The key difference between palliative care and hospice care: Palliative care patients are at the beginning of their journey and are still seeking aggressive, curative treatment while seeing all their providers and specialistsHospice care patients are generally at the end of their journey, no longer seeking aggressive treatment, and focusing on comfort care. Palliative care is an additional supportive layer of care that works collaboratively with all your existing medical providers. Most importantly, palliative care focuses heavily on the caregiver. Tip 2: Call Palliative Care In — Here's How Many caregivers don't realize how accessible palliative care is or when to call it in. The answer is simple: the earlier, the better. Tip 3: Understand the Goals of Palliative Care Palliative care has specific, comprehensive goals that address both immediate and long-term needs. Primary goals include: Relieving physical symptoms first Supporting the caregiver and family Education and collaboration Advanced care planning (ACP). This crucial component involves sitting down with the patient, caregiver, and family to discuss important decisions while your loved one can still participate in these conversations. Tip 4: What Else You Need to Know About Palliative Care There are several important aspects of palliative care that many people don't realize. Your loved one won't look sick. The goal is to help them live their life fully. Early intervention builds stronger relationships. The nurse navigator's role is specifically to connect you with community resources you might not know about. Read More in This Blog here

“In the marathon that is caregiving, the difference between exhaustion and endurance isn't willpower, it's the strength of the support network we build around us.” Sue Ryan Are you feeling overwhelmed by the responsibilities of caregiving?

If you answered yes to any of these questions, it's time to ask for help. Tip 2: Create a List of Who Can Help and What They Can Do Think about all the people who have offered to help or who might be willing to help. Map your list of potential helpers to your list of needs. If multiple people can help with a particular task, list them all—it's better not to rely on just one person. Tip 3: How to Effectively Ask for Help Recognize that some people want to help your care receiver, while others want to help you. Be specific and direct about what you need and why you need it.Remember that the people on your list have likely already offered to help or have shown willingness to support you.Adapt your approach based on the person you're asking. Tip 4: When People Offer to Help, Say "Yes" Avoid these common traps: "It would be easier just to do it myself.""No one can care for my loved one like I can.""I should be able to do this myself.""I feel guilty—they have their own busy lives." Tip 5: Maintain Your Support Network and Adjust as Things Change Encouraging open communication with your support team membersBeing proactive about finding new support team members when neededChecking in regularly with your helpers to keep them informed and engagedWatching for signs of burnout in your helpers—they may experience caregiver fatigue tooAddressing inflection points in your loved one's care needs Read More in This Blog https://sueryansolutions.medium.com/36-building-your-personal-caregiving-support-network-9f9639e9ae87

Puglia is one of Italy's most surprising destinations. Many travellers arrive expecting the familiar rhythms of "Italian tourism", only to discover that Puglia follows its own patterns: slower, more local, more traditional, and far more community-shaped than you might expect. For many travellers from the USA, Puglia feels both new and authentic — a place that hasn't been shaped around international tourism. But with this enthusiasm comes a learning curve. Puglia is not Tuscany. It is not Rome. It is not the Amalfi Coast. It has its own rhythms, its own cultural logic, and its own deeply-rooted way of life. Understanding those rhythms is the key to a richer, smoother, more meaningful trip. Welcome to Puglia 101: Essential Tips for First-Time Visitors. Everything you wish you'd known before your trip to the heel of Italy's boot. Follow us on Instagram for reels, stories, and daily inspiration. Use our Puglia Guide to plan your trip with confidence.

Every traveller carries a mental list of places they long to see, from childhood dreams to newly discovered wonders. These bucket lists reveal our deepest fascinations and evolve as our relationship with travel changes.Tracy and new permanent co-host Melissa share their own wishes, from African safaris to singing along while landing in Anchorage, Alaska. They reflect on how priorities shift over time. Many start with iconic sights, then find deeper joy in slower, more immersive trips to less visited places. As Melissa says of a month in India, “What surprised me wasn't the destinations or attractions, but the interactions we had with people.”Our rapidly growing Ladies Who Travel community (5,000+ members in six weeks) echoes this shift. Members are organising meet-ups across continents and joining group trips to Morocco, helping each other realise dreams like the Northern Lights, European Christmas markets, or long-awaited Greece.Whether you keep a written list or a mental one, this episode celebrates destinations that call to you. As Tracy says of finally seeing the Golden Gate Bridge after nearly forty years, “Sometimes you don't get to them straight away. But eventually you can, and that dream never went away.”Ready to turn your travel dreams into reality?

How to Do a Full Day at Magic Kingdom in OrlandoFor many travelers, Magic Kingdom is the heart of Walt Disney World — the park that captures the essence of Disney storytelling and wonder. With iconic attractions, timeless parades, and dazzling nighttime fireworks, it's where fairytales truly come to life.Trying to see and do everything in one day can feel overwhelming, but with a solid plan and a few insider tips, you can experience nearly all of the park's highlights without feeling rushed. Here's our complete guide to doing a full day at Magic Kingdom in OrlandoArrive Early and Plan AheadTo make the most of your visit, arrive before park opening. Give yourself time for parking, security, and transportation to the park entrance via ferry or monorail.If you're staying at a Disney Resort, you'll have access to Early Entry, which allows you to enter select areas 30 minutes before the general public — an excellent advantage for tackling the most popular rides first.Before arriving, download the My Disney Experience app. You'll use it for everything from checking wait times to ordering food, making Genie+ selections, and finding character meet-and-greet schedules.Morning: Tackle the Big AttractionsThe first few hours after opening are the best time to check off the most in-demand attractions, especially before the midday crowds arrive. Begin in Fantasyland and Tomorrowland with:Seven Dwarfs Mine Train – The most popular ride in Magic Kingdom; do this first or reserve a Lightning Lane.Peter Pan's Flight – A whimsical classic that fills up quickly.Space Mountain – A must for thrill-seekers, this indoor coaster is best early in the day.Buzz Lightyear's Space Ranger Spin – A fun, interactive game that families love.If you're using Genie+, schedule your first Lightning Lane for Jungle Cruise or Big Thunder Mountain Railroad later in the morning.Late Morning: Adventureland and FrontierlandOnce the early rush fades, head to Adventureland and Frontierland for a mix of action, humor, and nostalgia.Top attractions include:Pirates of the Caribbean – A fan favorite with an immersive atmosphere and cool indoor queue.Jungle Cruise – Famous for its witty skippers and lighthearted storytelling.Big Thunder Mountain Railroad – A high-energy ride through the Old West.Tiana's Bayou Adventure – The newly reimagined log flume experience based on The Princess and the Frog.After these, you'll be ready for a well-deserved lunch break.Lunch and Midday RestFor lunch, Pecos Bill Tall Tale Inn and Café in Frontierland offers quick, customizable Tex-Mex dishes. If you prefer a sit-down meal, The Crystal Palace on Main Street serves a buffet with Winnie the Pooh and friends — great for families and air-conditioned comfort.Use the early afternoon to slow down. Orlando's heat and crowds peak between 1 p.m. and 3 p.m., so plan indoor attractions or shows:Haunted Mansion – A spooky but family-friendly favorite.It's a Small World – Classic Disney charm and a great place to rest.Mickey's PhilharMagic – A 3D show that offers both entertainment and a cooldown.Afternoon: Explore and EnjoyBy mid-afternoon, take time to explore smaller attractions or revisit a favorite ride. Grab a refreshing Dole Whip from Aloha Isle or a Mickey pretzel from The Lunching Pad.Keep an eye on the Festival of Fantasy Parade schedule — it's worth seeing at least once, especially for first-time visitors. The best viewing areas are near Liberty Square or Frontierland, where crowds are lighter.Evening: Dinner and FireworksPlan your dinner around 5:30 or 6:00 p.m. so you can enjoy the nighttime entertainment afterward. For quick service, Casey's Corner offers classic hot dogs and a great view of the castle. For a quieter sit-down meal, The Plaza Restaurant provides a relaxed atmosphere and comfort food favorites.After dinner, claim your spot for “Happily Ever After,” the park's signature fireworks and projection show. For the best view, stand in the hub area in front of Cinderella Castle or along Main Street, U.S.A. Arrive at least 30–45 minutes early for the best experience.End of the Day: Last Rides and FarewellWhen the fireworks end, linger a bit. Crowds will surge toward the exit immediately, so this is a perfect time to enjoy one or two final attractions. Rides like Pirates of the Caribbean, Haunted Mansion, and Space Mountain often have much shorter waits late at night.Before leaving, take a slow walk down Main Street, U.S.A.. The lights, music, and view of the castle make for a peaceful and memorable ending to your day.Essential Tips for a Perfect Magic Kingdom DayWear comfortable shoes – Expect to walk several miles.Stay hydrated – Bring a refillable bottle; there are plenty of water stations.Use Genie+ wisely – Prioritize high-demand attractions for maximum value.Take breaks – Duck into shows or shops to recharge.Enjoy the atmosphere – The best moments aren't always on rides.A single day at Magic Kingdom can be as magical as an entire vacation if you plan it right. With an early start, a flexible itinerary, and a few well-timed breaks, you can experience the best rides, shows, and dining without feeling rushed.Magic Kingdom remains the most iconic of all Disney parks — and even one full day here is enough to remind us why it's called The Most Magical Place on Earth.
If you're a newer coach, it's easy to get stuck in what I call pre-launch limbo — spending months (or years) working on things that feel productive but don't actually get you paying clients. I call this Shiny Object Paralysis: the pull toward fun, pretty, or “safe” tasks that eat up your time, money, and energy while you avoid the real work that will actually get your business off the ground. In this episode of The Coaching Edge, I'm breaking it down into two clear lists: 10 things you actually need to launch your coaching business 10 things you don't (even if you've been told otherwise) We'll cover what's essential to protect yourself legally, start attracting clients, and feel confident in your skills — including why knowing your scope as a coach is just as important as having a booking link or a payment processor. And we'll bust some of the most common myths keeping new coaches stuck (hint: you don't need a $5K logo, a massive Instagram following, or a perfectly dialed niche before you start). If you've been spinning your wheels, feeling overwhelmed, or wondering where to even start — this is the reality check you need to move forward with clarity and focus. In this episode, you'll learn: The 10 practical, non-negotiable elements you really need to start a coaching business Why scope awareness is critical for your confidence and credibility How to spot the Shiny Object Drain before it drains your momentum 10 common “must-haves” you can skip (and what to do instead) Links and Resources:

Join Marvin Cash and Mac Brown on another segment of Casting Angles on The Articulate Fly fishing podcast as they tackle the technical challenges of North Carolina's extremely low water conditions during delayed harvest season. Mac Brown, veteran guide and casting instructor, shares essential leader construction techniques for technical low-water presentations, breaking down common misconceptions about leader design and energy transfer. Learn why adding tippet to store-bought leaders creates presentation problems, and discover Mac's proven formula for building effective 20-foot leaders using stiff monofilament like Maxima Chameleon—10 feet of 15-pound butt section, 5 feet of 12-pound, 2.5 feet of 0X, then your tippet of choice. Mac explains why modern nylon doesn't require complex tapered sections like old gut leaders did, debunks the "leader hinge" myth and reveals why he keeps the same leader on his rod for the entire fly line's lifespan. The discussion covers critical low-water stealth tactics including staying out of the water entirely, lengthening leaders for distance and using lighter tippets down to 7X and 8X nylon for superior knot strength over fluorocarbon in small diameters. With DH season underway and freestone streams running low across the Smokies, these expert adjustments will help you adapt your approach and connect with selective trout in challenging autumn conditions.Related ContentS7, Ep 41: Navigating High Water: Strategies for Success with Mac BrownS6, Ep 130: Casting in Color: Mac Brown's Fall Fly Fishing StrategiesS7, Ep 20: Practice Makes Perfect: Mac Brown on Mastering Casting TechniquesS6, Ep 141: Mastering Cold Weather Fly Fishing with Mac BrownAll Things Social MediaFollow Mac on Facebook, Instagram and Twitter.Follow us on Facebook, Instagram, Twitter and YouTube.Support the Show Shop on AmazonBecome a Patreon PatronSubscribe to the PodcastSubscribe to the podcast in the podcatcher of your choice.Advertise on the PodcastIs our community a good fit for your brand?

You might have seen those viral articles promising a mysterious multi-thousand-dollar Social Security “bonus,” but are they actually legit? On the show this week, I separate fact from fiction, debunking the myths and sharing seven actionable strategies to help you get the most out of your Social Security over your lifetime. Whether you're curious about how working longer, delaying your benefits, checking your earnings record, or understanding tax implications can impact your retirement paycheck, this episode is packed with valuable tips to help you make sure you're not leaving money on the table. You will want to hear this episode if you are interested in... [00:00] Retirement Planning Misconceptions Explained. [03:25] Filling in or replacing "zero" or low-earning years boosts benefits. [04:26] Reasons for and against early collection. [06:48] Repay benefits within one year of starting to “reset” your claim. [08:15] Eligibility requirements for spousal benefits. [12:28] How to check your Social Security earnings. [13:00] Strategies to delay taxable distributions and reduce Social Security taxation. Debunking the Social Security "Bonus" Myth Many retirees have seen headlines promising a massive Social Security “bonus" that most people don't collect. Let's be real, this so-called "bonus" isn't some sort of secret benefit; it's a reference to the cumulative value you could gain over your lifetime by paying a little attention to your Social Security strategy and reducing your tax liability. In other words, there's no one-time check or hidden program, just savvy planning that can add up to tens of thousands more in your pocket. 1. Work Longer, Maximize 35 Years of Earnings The Social Security Administration calculates your benefit using the highest 35 years of your working life. If you retire with fewer than 35 years of work, the missing years count as zero, lowering your benefit. Even for those with a full 35-year history, additional years of higher earnings (often later in your career) can replace lower-earning years, bumping up your monthly check. Working a little longer not only increases your benefit but may also put you in a better position for retirement overall. 2. Delay Claiming Benefits While you are eligible to start at age 62, waiting until your full retirement age (typically 66 or 67), or even delaying to age 70, can significantly increase your monthly benefit. For every year you wait past full retirement age (up to age 70), you receive an 8% credit, on top of any cost-of-living adjustments. There are some exceptions where it may make sense to claim early, such as serious health issues or unique family situations. 3. Unwind an Early Claim with Repayment If you've already claimed Social Security but then realize you made a mistake, there is a potential do-over option. If you started benefits within the past year, you can repay the benefits received (without interest) and reset your claiming strategy to earn a higher benefit later. This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity and includes repayment of any Medicare premiums withheld, so be sure this move fits your broader financial plan. 4. Don't Miss Out on Spousal and Survivor Benefits If you're married, you can claim a spousal benefit up to 50% of your spouse's benefit at your full retirement age. This strategy can be a huge game-changer for non-working or lower-earning spouses. When a spouse passes away, the survivor can step up to the higher of the two benefits, which is why it's important to maximize the higher earner's benefit for long-term security. 5. Check Your Social Security Earnings Statement Regularly Mistakes happen, even with Social Security's generally high record-keeping accuracy. Reviewing your annual earnings statement ensures all your income is being counted, and thus, your benefit is maximized. Errors not caught early can seriously reduce your benefit down the road. 6. Be Tax-Smart About Social Security Benefits By smartly timing IRA distributions, capital gains, and part-time work, you can potentially reduce or even eliminate the tax owed on your benefits for several years. For couples with a combined income under $32,000, none of the benefit is taxable, while at higher incomes, up to 85% can be taxed. Knowing these thresholds is key to tax-efficient retirement income planning. 7. Get Advice When Needed Social Security may be just one piece of your retirement puzzle, but it's a critical one. Consulting with a financial advisor can help you coordinate claiming strategies, minimize taxes, and make the right decisions for your unique situation. While there's no hidden "Social Security bonus" waiting to be claimed, a thoughtful approach to your Social Security strategy can result in thousands, even tens of thousands, of dollars more in your retirement years.
