Today I have the privilege of speaking with the divine Juliet Doherty. Juliet was born in Albuquerque, New Mexico, which is slightly more Breaking Bad than “Swan Lake,” but Juliet's grandparents owned a ballet studio which passed to Juliet's mother, and so the artistic genes ran deep. Juliet was renowned worldwide from an early age, competing in competitions around the world, winning the Youth America Grand Prix twice, and appearing in the cult movie First Position. By 16, Juliet was dancing with the San Francisco Ballet, where after training as an apprentice, she accepted a contract into the company, but company life wasn't for Juliet. In this most beautiful conversation, Juliet talks about her road to the stage, her diverse training, and her decision to branch out and carve her own artistic life away from the ballet. We discuss her reasons for leaving the San Francisco Ballet, diving into the wild of freelance work, the joys and the burdens of social media, and what continues to drive her passion as a freelance dancer and actress.Juliet continues to perform and act around the globe, while continuing as an MDM Dance Muse. Juliet has just finished a tour with Ballet International Gala in Brisbane. To continue to follow all of Juliet's wonderful adventures, you can find her on Instagram @julietdoherty.Follow @talkingpointespodcast and never miss an episode!

Dance is a part of my background that I don't talk about often. Years of formal ballet training, pointe classes and company performances. The world of dance always captivated me, felt a part of me, and when it came time for college it presented me with the choice to continue with it or pursue another career. At this time I turned in my ballet shoes and picked up some books. Left always wondering, how differently my story would have looked if I went that route, I always will welcome a conversation about the arts, especially ballet. Join us for a captivating conversation with Melanie Hamrick, a former principal dancer with the American Ballet Theater, who has gracefully transitioned from the stage to the page. Discover Melanie's riveting journey from a young ballet dancer in Virginia to a celebrated 16-year career with one of the world's leading ballet companies. After an injury shifted her path, Melanie turned her creative energy to writing, resulting in her debut novel, "First Position." This episode not only highlights her impressive professional achievements but also opens a window into her personal life, including her role as a mother and life with her partner Mick Jagger. Peek behind the curtain of the ballet world as Melanie shares the relentless schedules and physical demands that dancers face daily. From early morning rehearsals to evening performances and the mental strain of switching between different dance styles, her story shines a light on the often unseen aspects of a dancer's life.

Marcus and Corey's What You Know 'Bout That? trivia game for Wednesday, July 31st, 2024

In this session of Property & Paper Live, Ken brings up a pending foreclosure. He really wants the property, and is considering bidding at the Trustee Sale. There is a 2nd that is in danger of being completely wiped off. He could offer to buy the 2nd at a discount and foreclose from that position to greatly increase his opening bid and almost guarantee he'd get the property with the opening bid. But then he'd have to start the foreclosure timeline over again. Maybe if he'd thought of that earlier on, it would have been a good option. We also talk with others on the call and end with sharing a way to get help submitting owner financing offers so you can buy your home or investment property without asking a bank for a loan!

Have you ever heard the saying, “You've got to fall in love with yourself first?” Many women reject this idea, but the truth is, the longest relationship you will have during your time on this earth is the relationship you have with yourself. Therefore, nurturing yourself is highly important, and if you want to have a life that is together, abundant, and truly in alignment, you must put yourself first. Margaret from Austin, Texas, wrote in and said, “Danielle, in the year that I've been following your work, I've been working toward owning my life and caring deeply about myself. I've made my mental health, emotional well-being, sleep, nutrition, physical activity, and relationships a priority. However, I still struggle to put myself first in all areas of my life. I know you've said multiple times that we must hold space for ourselves and our needs, but honestly, I still find myself giving more than I should because I want to be a good person. How can we hold space for ourselves without feeling selfish or guilty? And, are there ways that I can check in with myself to know if I'm putting myself first?” Fantastic question, Margaret. Many of us need a matrix to know if we have put ourselves in first position, and that's exactly what we will work through and reset today! Doing this work comes in a few different simple and easy ways. As for holding space for ourselves, I love this is a focus of Margaret's, and I hope it's one of yours, too. For those that don't know what the means, holding space for yourself means to be present with yourself, without judgment. It means you are willing to listen to your own needs, act from a grounded place of self-love, trust, and respect, and ultimately practice empathy and compassion. This is the essential act of putting yourself first. And before we dive into the rest of the question, I want to touch on quote “being a good person” quickly. First, understand that being a good person has different definitions for each of us. One may think that being a good person means doing the right thing at all costs, even the cost of yourself. You know, doing things you dislike. Others see being a good person as not speaking up for themselves, or staying small to make others comfortable with their own unwillingness to take control of their lives. Others believe it's living as you are and trying to do your best. There are so many definitions. The problem with being a quote “good person” is that we often do unkind things to ourselves while we serve others without question and without realizing the long-term impact. The deal is this; when we put ourselves first in a genuine way, we realize that being a good person starts with how we treat ourselves. When we treat ourselves well, we have the ability to engage with others in a grounded and heartfelt way. We also realize that no one else will save or do the work for you. With this understanding, you also realize that you cannot be the one who does all the work for someone else. It's that a-ha moment that you are the knight in shining armor—the princess who has to pick up her sword and slay her own dragons, right?   With that understanding on the table, let's jump to the next part of Margaret's question. Are there ways to check in and know if you are putting yourself first? And the answer is, yes, absolutely there are! And, to be honest, there's a simple practice that you may be doing First, I want you to think of yourself and your life in the first position. The first position is the “I” perspective. I need, I want, I am. This is getting into a place where you do not see your goals, needs, and desires as something separate then yourself, but instead in the mindset of how this impacts me, and only me. “I!” To help you know if you are in the first position when you are doing something for others, they would be the second position. Instead of “I,” this is the “you” perspective of point-of-view, so you would say, “You are doing this.” Or “Are you doing that?” This you is someone else. The third position is the “he/she/it/they” perspective. So, more of a collective group. As to ways to check in and know that you are putting yourself first, we literally tune in and turn inward in the first position. Anytime someone comes to you and says, “I need your help,” you would tune in and ask yourself a series of questions. Now, these questions are mere examples. You can certainly change them and make them work for you. But I may ask myself, through the lens of the first position: How do I feel today? Do I have space mentally, emotionally, and physically to help someone else? If your immediate answer is no, you must hold space and boundaries with a simple “no.” So often, it's here in the thoughts of being a good person that we push aside the first person, go into the second position, and make the second the priority over your own needs.  You can also ask: what is important to me today? Do “I,” in first position, have an agenda that will help support my life in the short-term and long-term. If I push it aside, will this impact me negatively or positively? This is a great way to check-in and gauge your energy and time. We often do not do so when new things are offered, and then we become upset when we cannot focus on our original needs. A few other questions that we can engage in while holding space and keeping in the first position are: What do I need to do for myself today to make it the best experience? When was the last time you asked yourself this question? Most people never ask this question. Yet, focusing on how you can engage with yourself is a powerful tool that serves your self-esteem, self-love, trust, respect, and so much more beyond holding space. The next question: How can I best care for myself today? This is a straightforward way to tune in, put yourself first, and become mindful of what you need and want. When I've worked with women, they have brushed off this simple practice because it seemed a bit too easy. But, after some time, they have engaged with the practice and realized that sometimes the simplest things make the biggest impact. What's the other old saying, “You can't pour for an empty cup…” You can't serve others if you don't fulfill your needs and desires. As to how to hold space without guilt—saying no isn't really about the “no.” Instead, it's about: standing up for your own values, principles, and needs. It's also about prioritizing what's most important to you, as I mentioned. Once you have clarity around what you want and why and then create clear standards around them, it's easier to say no. There's deep meaning behind the “no.” With that, you'll feel empowered instead of fearful and worried, which allows guilt to fall away.  More importantly, you'll be focused on what you're saying yes to, which will be your priorities and values.  The way to approach a “no” that best keeps you in the first position is:  #1 Delay your answer: If you hold space, you can allow yourself to remove the pressure. This gives you time to think about how the ask will impact you. You can simply say: I need to think about it. Can I get back to you in the next few days? Or I need to check my schedule. Things are pretty full right now. Immediate answers often put us in positions we do not want to be in and fill our time with things that do not best serve us. #2 Make a counter-offer if this is something you do want to do but don't have all the time to commit. Offer to take on a smaller role. Give the person time to ask questions or connect them with someone that can better serve them. This removes guilt, too. #3 Be firm in your answer. Meaning, that it's okay to start with No. You don't have to justify your answer or your reasoning. Just offer your firm answer. Guilt comes in when we offer doubt. #4 If you need to explain, keep it brief. Often when we are trying to be kind, we go into depth justifying and opens the door for wiggle room. Instead, keep it brief. One of my favorite things to say is: I just don't have the bandwidth for that right now. We hold space for ourselves without guilt by: Being honest Don't apologize for taking and owning our own space. And we are firm in keeping ourselves a priority. Holding space is necessary. Putting yourself first is a necessity, and there's nothing wrong with it. You can offer to yourself in all the kindness you do for others.   Thank you to Margaret from Austin, Texas, for the question! I challenge you to hold space for yourself and put yourself in the first position!

Something I learned from my good friend Tom Krol is the principle of putting revenue first in your real estate business. Whether you flip land or houses, coach, or sell widgets, you always have to put revenue in the first position. So what does that look like? Well, it can mean a lot of different things, and I get into them here. It could be as simple as making a list of the most important things to do each day and getting them done. I also talk about revenue-generating activities and why you should make them your priority. Remember, if you're not talking to sellers or making offers, you're not bringing in revenue. Make sure those activities are on your list. Once you put revenue first, you can start making money hand over fist. Your business will start growing, and you'll have tremendous breakthroughs.

73. SPECIAL EPISODE: No.11: A Journey in German-Learning, Musik auf Deutsch. "Position" This is the last of the introductory pages of musical instruction in writing from Heberlein's Self Instructor for Cello, Op. 7. (There are still more pages of writing instruction sprinkled throughout the 60 page method. More to come.) In this episode, I learn more about the cello in the First Position and the notes that go along with it--in C major. There are some exercises as well. --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/forgottencellomusic/message

65. SPECIAL EPISODE: No. 4: A Journey in German-Learning, Musik auf Deutsch "Die Töne der vier Saiten" This episode will cover all the pitches of the four strings in First Position. I begin by introducing the purpose of this special series as well as asking if this is doing any good for learning musical terminology in German. Perhaps you would like to weigh in on that thought question and give your comments to me. This section in Heberlein's Self Instructor, Op. 7 is the lengthiest yet with lots of musical examples to accompany the reading. Each time the text gives some notes I inject them into the episode so that the reading stays as true to the text as possible.

Have you ever heard the saying, “You've got to fall in love with yourself first?” Many women reject this idea, but the truth is, the longest relationship you will have during your time on this earth is the relationship you have with yourself. Therefore, nurturing yourself is highly important, and if you want to have a life that is together, abundant, and truly in alignment, you must put yourself first. Margaret from Austin, Texas, wrote in and said, “Danielle, in the year that I've been following your work, I've been working toward owning my life and caring deeply about myself. I've made my mental health, emotional well-being, sleep, nutrition, physical activity, and relationships a priority. However, I still struggle to put myself first in all areas of my life. I know you've said multiple times that we must hold space for ourselves and our needs, but honestly, I still find myself giving more than I should because I want to be a good person. How can we hold space for ourselves without feeling selfish or guilty? And, are there ways that I can check in with myself to know if I'm putting myself first?” Fantastic question, Margaret. Many of us need a matrix to know if we have put ourselves in first position, and that's exactly what we will work through and reset today! Doing this work comes in a few different simple and easy ways. As for holding space for ourselves, I love this is a focus of Margaret's, and I hope it's one of yours, too. For those that don't know what the means, holding space for yourself means to be present with yourself, without judgment. It means you are willing to listen to your own needs, act from a grounded place of self-love, trust, and respect, and ultimately practice empathy and compassion. This is the essential act of putting yourself first. And before we dive into the rest of the question, I want to touch on quote “being a good person” quickly. First, understand that being a good person has different definitions for each of us. One may think that being a good person means doing the right thing at all costs, even the cost of yourself. You know, doing things you dislike. Others see being a good person as not speaking up for themselves, or staying small to make others comfortable with their own unwillingness to take control of their lives. Others believe it's living as you are and trying to do your best. There are so many definitions. The problem with being a quote “good person” is that we often do unkind things to ourselves while we serve others without question and without realizing the long-term impact. The deal is this; when we put ourselves first in a genuine way, we realize that being a good person starts with how we treat ourselves. When we treat ourselves well, we have the ability to engage with others in a grounded and heartfelt way. We also realize that no one else will save or do the work for you. With this understanding, you also realize that you cannot be the one who does all the work for someone else. It's that a-ha moment that you are the knight in shining armor—the princess who has to pick up her sword and slay her own dragons, right?   With that understanding on the table, let's jump to the next part of Margaret's question. Are there ways to check in and know if you are putting yourself first? And the answer is, yes, absolutely there are! And, to be honest, there's a simple practice that you may be doing First, I want you to think of yourself and your life in the first position. The first position is the “I” perspective. I need, I want, I am. This is getting into a place where you do not see your goals, needs, and desires as something separate then yourself, but instead in the mindset of how this impacts me, and only me. “I!” To help you know if you are in the first position when you are doing something for others, they would be the second position. Instead of “I,” this is the “you” perspective of point-of-view, so you would say, “You are doing this.” Or “Are you doing that?” This you is someone else. The third position is the “he/she/it/they” perspective. So, more of a collective group. As to ways to check in and know that you are putting yourself first, we literally tune in and turn inward in the first position. Anytime someone comes to you and says, “I need your help,” you would tune in and ask yourself a series of questions. Now, these questions are mere examples. You can certainly change them and make them work for you. But I may ask myself, through the lens of the first position: How do I feel today? Do I have space mentally, emotionally, and physically to help someone else? You can also ask: what is important to me today? What do I need to do for myself today to make it the best experience? When was the last time you asked yourself this question? Most people never ask this question. Yet, focusing on how you can engage with yourself is a powerful tool that serves your self-esteem, self-love, trust, respect, and so much more beyond holding space. The next question: How can I best care for myself today? This is a straightforward way to tune in, put yourself first, and become mindful of what you need and want. As to how to hold space without guilt—saying no isn't really about the “no.” Instead, it's about: standing up for your own values, principles, and needs. It's also about prioritizing what's most important to you, as I mentioned. Once you have clarity around what you want and why and then create clear standards around them, it's easier to say no. There's deep meaning behind the “no.” With that, you'll feel empowered instead of fearful and worried, which allows guilt to fall away.  More importantly, you'll be focused on what you're saying yes to, which will be your priorities and values.  The way to approach a “no” that best keeps you in the first position is:  #1 Delay your answer: #2 Make a counter-offer if this is something you do want to do but don't have all the time to commit. #3 Be firm in your answer. #4 If you need to explain, keep it brief. We hold space for ourselves without guilt by: Being honest Don't apologize for taking and owning our own space. And we are firm in keeping ourselves a priority. Holding space is necessary. Putting yourself first is a necessity, and there's nothing wrong with it. You can offer to yourself in all the kindness you do for others.   Thank you to Margaret from Austin, Texas, for the question! I challenge you to hold space for yourself and put yourself in the first position!

Note investing is one of those options and contrary to what many believe, it's not really that hard to get started in this space.

Composer Chris Hajian's talent and versatility can be heard in films like The Take, Yonkers Joe, First Position and now The Infiltrator among many other great projects. He is reconnecting with director Brad Furman for the new crime thriller starring Bryan Cranston. We chat about Chris' approach to the film including how he aimed to make the score feel vintage but not distinctly of the time period. Chris also discusses many other topics like why ambient scoring can be more appropriate versus using melodies, why he thinks there is too much music in modern films, and how he was able to build a successful career in his hometown of New York City when many people only see Los Angeles as the film capital of the world. Chris is such an inspiring composer, and getting a little glimpse into his processes is extremely enlightening. It was such a pleasure to have Chris return as a guest.

He also talks about scoring a handful of direct to video Disney sequels and what that entails when a composer jumps into a big name franchise for the home video market. Chris is a great and charismatic guy and his passion for his work speaks for itself.

She’s sacrificed creature comforts, a social life, as well as her own physical well-being for perfection in dance. Even her reputation as The Ice Queen doesn’t faze her. Though Ana’s at the peak of her career, competition from a new and noteworthy dancer puts all she’s worked for in jeopardy.  While Natalie has shown herself to be a prodigy when it comes to ballet, she much prefers modern dance and living on her own terms. Life is too short for anything else. However, when the opportunity to dance with the New York City Ballet is thrust upon her, it’s not like she could say no. Dealing with the company’s uptight lead is another story, however. When the two are forced to work side-by-side, sparks begin to fly onstage and off.  Why it made this list  It is a charming story of two women who are really different and yet they are drawn to one another with a power that can’t be denied even when tragedy occurs.  Plus they live literally across the hall from one another.    Get it on Amazon.com | Amazon.co.uk | Amazon.ca      Check out Tara’s full review here    2 Hidden Truths by Jae  Published by Ylva Publishing  This book is a: story about coming to terms with who you are because the girl who moved in next door is irresistible.  What it’s about  Hendrika has nothing left after her best friend Johanna dies, she loses her job, and is kicked out of the boarding house she’s been living in.

With nothing but her meager belongings in a carpet bag and trepidation for taking a dead woman’s place at a stranger’s side, she hops on the train to begin her journey.  When she arrives at the ranch she discovers that her husband to be has left the ranch for a journey to deliver some horses. But she is welcomed in by the resident ranch owners, the Hamiltons and she meets Amy, their oldest daughter and a force of nature in her own right.

Gretchen Kaiser is a workaholic corporate honcho with issues – she’s got daddy issues, she’s got female-executive-in-a-man’s-world issues, and she’s got one night stand issues. What she doesn’t have are love issues. She isn’t looking for it, she doesn’t feel she needs it, and she doesn’t expect to find it…certainly not right under her nose. Kylie O’Brien is the kind of girl who believes in true love and is willing to wait until it shows up at her door. Her best friend Mick would sweep her off her feet given the chance, but Mick doesn’t make Kylie feel the way true love should. And now Kylie has to worry about her new boss – Gretchen Kaiser’s icy reserve makes life as her administrative assistant a challenge.

In fact, she’s so adept at trying to stamp out her feelings that she could probably write a How-To guide on the subject. One, move 3,000 miles away from your best friend. Two, get a time-consuming job so you don’t have time to think about your best friend. Three, hang out with new friends who aren’t anywhere as enchanting as your best friend. Four, get involved with a striking woman who is smart, sexy, caring and, most importantly, available, unlike your best friend. Five, hope the new love interest doesn’t find out about your pathetic best friend obsession before you have time to replace it with actual life-altering love.  Even following her own step-by-step process, Austy may not be able to redirect all of her misguided feelings. Becoming involved with Elise Bridie helps her realize how pointless her pining has been. But when Elise suspects that she harbors feelings for someone else, will their new found love survive the unrequited infatuation of Austy’s fantasies?    Get it on Amazon.com | Amazon.co.uk | Amazon.ca    10 Just Jorie by Robin Alexander  Published by Intaglio Publications  What it’s about  Some believe that special someone is out there just waiting to be found.

Her dream of finding a husband is dwindling with every year that passes. Despite what her friends say, Lena doesn’t believe she has a fear of commitment, she simply hasn’t found a man she wanted to commit to. It comes as a surprise that in fact it is a woman who stirs those desires. For Lena, it’s not really a matter of sexuality, it’s just Jorie.  Travel the road to happiness with Jorie and Lena.

With Mark Lawson Director Oliver Stone's latest project is an ambitious ten-part TV documentary series called Oliver Stone's Untold History of the United States. He's teamed up with writer Peter Kuznick to look back at events that at the time went under-reported, but that shaped America over the 20th century. Oliver Stone and Peter Kuznick discuss the challenge of such a large undertaking and the inevitable controversy that it has attracted. First Position is a film about the ballet world. It shows a group of 11-17 year olds as they prepare to enter the Youth America Grand Prix, where scholarships to ballet schools and dancing contracts can be won.
