We love to talk about setting each other up for success and pursuing excellence in what we do. In some ways we are like the person trying to order food in english to a server who does not understand the language, instead of translating, we think we should just say it louder and slower. Which makes things way worse. They are fine words, but without telling people what they mean, they become meaningless.  On today's shift break we will be talking about why defining these terms before we use them in the shop is necessary for buy-in, good communication, and to achieve a specific level of excellence and success.  Related episodes: 424: Developing Menu and Hospitality Guides 123 : The 10 Essentials of a Barista Manual 167 : Handing off the Shift : 4 Tips to Avoid Chaos

"The biggest problem that I have with standardized testing.. is whether parents and educators mean to do this or not... a child's entire sense of self-worth is predicated on their performance on the standardized test.

According to Merriam Websters dictionary, the word Intentional is defined as “done by intention, intended” In other words, not random, not by chance, and not accidental. And according to the ancient Greek philosopher, Aristotle, “Excellence is never an accident. It is always the result of high intention, sincere effort, and intelligent execution. It represents the wise choice of many alternatives. Choice, not chance, determines your destiny.” On today's episode I welcome career coach, yoga instructor, TED-X speaker coach, and host of “The Intentional Mind” podcast, my good friend, Angela Barnard. We discuss how she has evolved into a living breathing example of ambition, intentionality, and humor, and how applying an intentional mindset to your life can yield a fulfillment and freedom that will open up doors you never knew existed. Enjoy!

Welcome to the World Extreme Medicine podcast. In today's conversation, we'll tackle a complex question: How do we define excellence in emergency care? We'll explore the idea that true excellence isn't just avoiding mistakes - it's actively balancing safety and proficiency. We'll look at how individuals and teams evolve in crisis situations, becoming more excellent versions of themselves. And we'll address the unique challenges of cultivating excellence among "swarm" teams that rapidly assemble for emergencies. To guide us, we have a remarkable guest: Dr. Dan Dworkis, founder of The Emergency Mind Project. As Chief Medical Officer at the Mission Critical Team Institute, Dan knows a thing or two about achieving excellence under pressure. He's a board-certified emergency physician, assistant professor of emergency medicine at USC's Keck School of Medicine, and completed his residency at the Harvard-affiliated emergency medicine program at Massachusetts General Hospital and Brigham Health. With an MD and PhD in molecular medicine from Boston University, Dan brings a wealth of clinical and scientific expertise to our discussion of excellence today. Dr. Dworkis is the author of The Emergency Mind: Wiring Your Brain for Performance Under Pressure.

Understanding and addressing the tongue's role in orthodontics is essential for achieving long-term stability and preventing relapse.Tune in to learn from one of the leading experts in our profession.Key Takeaways- Meet the world-renowned Dr. Luis Carriere (01:19)- Difference between practicing in Spain and the USA (06:58)- What we must do as a profession to educate our patients (10:08)- The Motion Appliance (17:39)- The 5 components of Class II correction (19:39)- TMJ disorders and mandible position (25:58)- Orthodontic treatment and tongue positioning (34:26)Additional Resources

The Hiding Place by Corrie ten Boom with John and Elizabeth Sherrill is a remarkable story of an amazing family's dedication to serving God wholeheartedly. Join Kate and I as we discuss the impactfulness of Casper ten Boom and his family while they operate their watch shop in Holland. The family is always on the alert for ways to be the hands and feet of Jesus. Aristotle said, “We are what we repeatedly do. Excellence, then, is not an act, but a habit.” The ten Booms were unwaveringly solid in this area. They started each day focused on God and His word and ended each day the same way! What an amazing example of the power of routines! Have you wondered what enables ordinary people to do extraordinary things? Corrie gives readers the prepwork for being 'all in' as disciples of Christ. I think that is the linchpin! The linchpin keeps the wheels turning through dust and mud. If an axle's linchpin is removed, even 50%, the results are catastrophic. Our linchpin is God and living a life to glorify Him is the purpose for our existence. The ten Booms were ready, willing to hide Jews even at their own peril. The family successfully hid many Jews during a year and a half before a traitor exposed their operation. The story doesn't end at the raid, it just changes direction. In prison, Betsie and Corrie were able to hold Bible studies, and time after time the demeanor of the women changed and they became more Christ-like. Denying self is a concept that society has really muddied the waters on, but this family clearly had it figured out. This inspiring book is one that readers will not soon forget. It will bless you and your family greatly! --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/recapbookchat/message

Amy Edmondson is the Novartis Professor of Leadership and Management at the Harvard Business School, renowned for her research on psychological safety over twenty years. Her award-winning work has appeared in The New York Times, The Wall Street Journal, the Financial Times, Psychology Today, Fast Company, Harvard Business Review, and more. Named by Thinkers50 in 2021 as the #1 Management Thinker in the world, Edmondson's TED Talk “How to Turn a Group of Strangers into a Team” has been viewed over three million times. She received her PhD, AM, and AB from Harvard University. Her latest book is titled: The Right Kind of Wrong: The Science of Failing Well.    Some interesting insights from this episode: ·         A good failure is an undesired outcome that brings you new knowledge that could have not been gained any other way. It should be just big enough to get new information without wasting unnecessary time.  ·         Most of us have shifted from curiosity and learning in our childhood to defensiveness and self-protection in our adulthood because of the belief that we had to be right or successful to be worthy. ·         Psychological safety Is a belief that one can take interpersonal risks without the fear of punishment or rejection. ·         You need psychological safety in order to cultivate a culture of intelligent failure.  ·         Reframing is one of the techniques we can use to learn from failure. It's the ability to challenge the automatic thinking and come up with a healthier, more productive way to think about the same situation.  ·         A culture of accountability and high-performance standards can coexist with a culture of psychological safety and embracing failure.  ·         “The easiest way to not fail at all is to not take risks at all.”  ·         “Excellence is doing as well as you can in your chosen field and making a positive difference.”   Notes: Books: Right Kind of Wrong: The Science of Failing Well The Fearless Organization: Creating Psychological Safety in the Workplace for Learning, Innovation, and Growth   Websites: Amy Edmondson personal page Harvard Business School bio

She lives in Minnesota, where twenty-three of her books are also set.  Jess Lourey shares some backstory on her crime fiction: “I grew up in St. Cloud, MN, in the ‘70s, at a time where there were at least two serial killers operating in my neighborhood. We then moved to Paynesville, MN in the ‘80s, when eight boys were abducted and returned in this small town, leading up to the murder of Jacob Wetterling, an eleven-year-old boy who lived nearby. There was so much violence all around me. My entire childhood, I saw women and children being harmed and not much in the way of justice or accountability. That has left an indelible mark on me, and in my thrillers, I strive to give a voice and perspective to those who are hurt.”  This book will be a favorite of true crime lovers as will this interview!
