HOSTS: Miranda Reiman and Mark McCully GUESTS: Scott and Andrew Foster At Seldom Rest Farms the business model is different than many: Angus youth are their main target demographic. Selling Angus show heifers across the United States allowed brothers Scott and Bruce Foster to bring the next generation back to the Michigan farm. Today Scott's son, Andrew, and his family are active in the day-to-day management of the nationally renowned operation. Phenotype matters, but having an end product is also important. Hear how they balance it all, the reason they're so invested in the next generation of Angus enthusiasts and why they believe opening their farm gates to beef marketers makes a real difference.  Scott Foster is a Niles, Mich., native and second generation Angus breeder. He and his siblings grew up on a row crop farm with a small herd of Angus show cattle, which first sparked his interest in the ring. Scott earned a degree in animal husbandry from Michigan State University, married his wife Elaine and raised their children, Andrew and Danielle, with a strong involvement in the National Junior Angus Association. Along with his brother, Bruce, Scott grew Seldom Rest Farm into a nationally recognized program, which has received many honors including 2023 Certified Angus Beef Ambassador of the Year and 2022 Master Breeder of the Year Award at the All-American Angus Breeders' Futurity show in Louisville.  Andrew Foster grew up in the National Junior Angus Association, serving as vice chairman of the National Junior Angus Association Board. After earning an animal science degree from Oklahoma State University, he returned to become a partner in Seldom Rest Farms. He was honored as the 2013 Herdsman of the Year and is a well-known cattle judge across the United States. He and his wife, Emily, are raising their three daughters in the lifestyle he grew up in.  SPONSOR: Deer Valley Farms invites you to their Spring Cow Sale on Saturday, May 10th, at 11 a.m. at the farm near Fayetteville, Tenn.  Several of the donor females have been huge contributors to their program — see what they can do for your herd!

This Podcast Is Episode 623, And It's About The Art Of Giving And Receiving Constructive Criticism In Construction Think about the last time you gave or received feedback. Did it inspire growth and improvement or leave someone feeling deflated? When done right, constructive feedback is a powerful tool for driving success. But it's a fine line – getting it wrong can do more harm than good.   For business owners, managers, and team leaders, effectively giving and receiving constructive feedback isn't just a nice skill; it's a necessity. Feedback shapes stronger teams, builds trust, and moves companies forward.    In the construction industry, where projects are often complex and involve numerous stakeholders, giving and receiving constructive criticism is essential for success. Feedback can significantly impact safety, quality, and project timelines, making it crucial to foster a culture where constructive feedback is the norm rather than the exception.   Understanding Constructive Criticism Constructive criticism in construction focuses on performance, processes, and safety rather than personal attributes. It aims to highlight areas for improvement while providing actionable suggestions to enhance skills and procedures. This feedback cultivates a transparent work environment where team members feel empowered to address challenges without fear of personal confrontation. Constructive Feedback vs. Destructive Criticism Not all feedback is created equal. Constructive feedback is designed to promote growth. It's specific, actionable, and focuses on behavior or outcomes, not personal traits. Destructive criticism, on the other hand, often comes off as judgmental and unhelpful, targeting the person rather than the problem. Consider these examples: Constructive Criticism: I noticed a few inconsistencies in the framing of the last project. Let's review the measurements to improve them for the next build and ensure we're aligned. I believe this will help enhance the overall quality of the work and avoid any potential issues during inspections. Destructive Criticism: The framing on that last job was terrible. You need to get it right, or this line of work isn't for you. In the first example, the feedback focuses on improving the work and offers support, while the second example is judgmental and demoralizing, focusing solely on the individual's shortcomings. Constructive feedback opens the door to improvement, while destructive criticism shuts down. By aligning feedback with a growth mindset, businesses can foster trust, encourage professional development, and build an environment where individuals and teams thrive. Why Constructive Feedback Matters Great feedback isn't just about pointing out mistakes – it's a catalyst for growth. Here's how constructive feedback benefits construction businesses: Improves employee performance: Identifies strengths, weaknesses, and areas for improvement. Enhances team dynamics: Encourages open communication and collaboration. Builds trust and engagement: Employees feel valued when their growth is a priority. Fosters continuous learning: Positioned as a tool for development, feedback encourages individuals to keep improving. Drives business success: Growth at the individual level contributes directly to company goals. Employees need to know their work matters, and constructive feedback signals that their success is tied to the business. How to give constructive feedback effectively: Providing great feedback takes preparation, empathy, and a strategic approach. Here's a breakdown of how to deliver it successfully: 1. Choose the right time and place Deliver feedback privately where the person feels comfortable and safe to discuss openly. Avoid giving feedback in the heat of the moment; instead, allow emotions to settle so the conversation remains productive. 2. Be specific and focused Vague feedback like "You need to do better" isn't helpful. Instead, reference specific situations and actions. For example, say, "During yesterday's client call, I noticed some confusion about the project timeline. Preparing a detailed overview beforehand might help in future calls." 3. Use "I" statements Frame feedback with "I" statements to avoid sounding accusatory. For example: Instead of "You're always interrupting me," say, "I felt interrupted during our meeting, and it made it difficult for me to express my points." 4. Balance positives and negatives Use the feedback sandwich technique: Start with a positive comment. Address the area for improvement with actionable suggestions. End with encouragement. For example Positive Comment: The team did an excellent job with the safety protocols on the last project. Everyone was vigilant about wearing helmets and harnesses, which helped create a safe work environment. Area for Improvement: However, I noticed a few delays in material deliveries that could have been better managed. For future projects, let's improve our communication with suppliers to make sure everything gets on time, as this will help keep us on schedule. Encouragement: Overall, I'm really impressed with everyone's dedication. If we can tighten up the logistics of material deliveries, we'll see even greater success on our projects. Keep up the great work! This structure helps maintain morale while addressing areas for improvement, fostering a constructive atmosphere for the team. 5. Offer solutions and support Feedback shouldn't just point out issues – it needs to provide solutions. For instance, suggest additional training, offer to share the workload, or brainstorm ideas together. This shows a commitment to the person's growth. 6. Follow up Check in after the feedback conversation to see how the individual applies the advice. This shows that your feedback wasn't a one-off critique but part of an ongoing growth process. Receiving constructive feedback positively: Feedback is a two-way street. Learning to receive it with an open mind is just as crucial. Here's how to ensure you're extracting the most value from feedback: 1. Listen actively When receiving feedback, focus on understanding rather than responding. Avoid interrupting or dismissing the feedback outright. Instead, paraphrase to confirm understanding, e.g., "I'm hearing that I should work on communicating deadlines more thoroughly. Is that correct?" 2. Avoid defensiveness It can be tempting to explain away criticism, but doing so may make you seem resistant to growth. Accept feedback with humility and thank the individual for pointing out opportunities for improvement. 3. Reflect on the information Take time to process the feedback before acting on it. Ask yourself: What specific actions can I take to improve? Is there a pattern in the feedback I've received? How can I use this information to grow? 4. View feedback as an opportunity Having a growth mindset is key. Look at feedback not as criticism but as an investment in your potential. 5. Implement changes Feedback without action benefits no one. Develop a clear plan to address areas of improvement and track your progress. Building A Feedback-Positive Environment To truly unlock the power of feedback, create a culture where feedback is valued, sought after, and given freely. Here's how: To make feedback a regular part of your business culture, hold routine one-on-ones, team debriefs, or anonymous surveys. Celebrate employees who both give and act on constructive feedback. This reinforces its value and shows that it's a tool for growth, not punishment. When leaders seek and act on feedback, it sets the tone for the entire business. An open and transparent leadership style fosters a safe environment for feedback. Equip managers and team members with the skills to give and receive feedback effectively. Training in conflict resolution, active listening, and emotional intelligence can be game-changing. Final thoughts By prioritizing constructive criticism, the construction industry can improve individual performances and enhance overall project outcomes, ensuring that teams work more effectively together and that projects are completed safely and on time. Constructive feedback is more than a tool – it's a mindset. It encourages growth, builds trust, and empowers you to achieve your full potential. Whether you're delivering it to your team or receiving it from others, the key lies in empathy, clarity, and a focus on solutions. Here's your actionable takeaway: Start small. Use the strategies in this blog to have one meaningful feedback conversation this week. Observe the impact, refine your approach, and make feedback a regular part of your leadership toolkit. The benefits will cascade beyond your expectations – for your people and construction business.

QFF: Quick Fire Friday – Your 20-Minute Growth Powerhouse! Welcome to Quick Fire Friday, the Grow A Small Business podcast series that is designed to deliver simple, focused and actionable insights and key takeaways in less than 20 minutes a week. Every Friday, we bring you business owners and experts who share their top strategies for growing yourself, your team and your small business. Get ready for a dose of inspiration, one action you can implement and quotable quotes that will stick with you long after the episode ends! In this episode of Quick Fire Friday, host Amanda Jones interviews Scott Ko of The Curiosity Mindset and explores how radical curiosity fuels innovation and business success. He shares strategies to balance creativity with operational efficiency and adapt systems for modern challenges. Scott emphasises questioning norms to stay relevant in a fast-changing market. His insights on leadership, innovation, and growth offer actionable advice for entrepreneurs. Discover how a mindset of curiosity can transform your approach to business. Dive into thought-provoking content and subscribe for fresh perspectives via Scott's Substack newsletter, a hub of powerful insights on business, leadership, education, systems-thinking, and personal growth.  Key Takeaways for Small Business Owners: Question Your Status Quo: Regularly ask why you do things the way you do. Put your business under the microscope with the classic 5 Whys. This practice can uncover outdated methods, inefficiencies, and create opportunities for innovation. Shorten Business Planning Cycles: Business lifecycles are drastically shortening. Trends can come and go within a quarter. Keep an eye on your destination, but hold your operational business planning lightly so you can adapt to change nimbly. This isn't about constantly redesigning your business; it's about a mindset that keeps you open to change. Before You Scale Your Business, Know Your Business: Scaling your business isn't just about 10x-ing your clients. If you don't understand how your business is put together and how it can adapt to growth, adding more clients can be a recipe for disaster; like adding jet fuel to a car engine. Understand your business and how it fits together, then you'll be ready to tackle growth in a genuine, sustainable way. Our hero crafts outstanding reviews following the experience of listening to our special guests. Are you the one we've been waiting for? Curiosity Will Be Your Competitive Edge: Curiosity isn't about asking more questions or just taking an interest in new things; it's an ongoing practice of thinking differently, of thinking better. Curiosity is about deeply understanding what you know, why, and how you integrate new information into your business. Businesses don't transform until leaders transform their thinking first.  Reassess Regularly And Holistically: Look at both your business and your people. Your business is nothing without your people, and your people work together because your business. So take time to check-in on both, to see if your efforts are aligned with your goals, ensuring they are both meaningful and sustainable for long-term success. One action small business owners can take: According to Scott Ko, one action small business owners should take is simply to question a key process in their business. Ask, "Why do we do it this way? Is it still effective or relevant?" Whenever you feel stuck, unclear, or frustrated, this simple act of curiosity can empower you to uncover opportunities for improvement and drive meaningful change.

"The feeling I hope people will have on this farm is that deep sense of safety and surrender. The feeling of being deeply nurtured and nourished. That feeling you get from visiting your great aunt or your grandmother. That one elderly female family member where you go when you just want to be deeply nourished and you feel completely at ease and safe. All your worries just sort of dissolve instantly.”We're in great company with Fleur and Nicole, partners in life and in profession who serendipitously found and meticulously stewarded Sterrekopje Farm in South Africa, a biodiverse farm and soulful sanctuary where curiosity blooms, creativity flourishes, and laughter is ever-present.Here, they have carefully curated a community of chefs, farmers, holistic practitioners, and artists to share, teach and connect with guests– in an environment where every ritual, every bite, every breath is a chance to celebrate the gifts of Mother Nature, from 'soil to soul'.In this episode, as we celebrate Women's History Month around the world, Nicole and Fleur share with us their serendipitous story, their thoughtful travel tastes, their everyday rituals—providing us with the fertile ground and nourishing energy we crave to pursue our own dreams and desires. Top Takeaways[1:45] A story of how two Dutch women, since early childhood, fell in love with travel to cultures beyond their familiar Western world and how a serendipitous flight became fate that would lead them on their next big adventure together. [6:30] How Nicole knew Sterrekopje Farm, ‘the bright star above the little mountain,' was the sanctuary she had been searching for—a beloved family farm dating back to the 17th century that once produced wine and olives and was in need of nurturing back to health. [10:15] Over the course of five years, Nicole and Fleur have grown alongside the farm itself—transforming monoculture into biodiversity, harvesting their first honey, and witnessing a beautiful season of abundance that extends beyond the land to the guests who visit—which today flourishes as a wild, fertile sanctuary.[13:20] Nicole reminds us all, “What is so important is to get people out of their heads and into their bodies because we're living so much in our heads these days. And to really connect with your body—that opens the ability to connect to other people, but also to yourself and to nature.”[16:50] Close your eyes and listen as Fleur transports us all to a day in the life at Sterrekopje Farm, painting a stunning picture with a palette of serene senses. [22:00] What some may call “a beautiful mess,” is intentionally a curated collection of fabrics and antiques from a multitude of cultures—creating not a standard hotel with sterile rooms, but a soulful place with personal sanctuaries.  [27:20] Discover what makes Sterrekopia a playground for adults to relearn the art of play—a place where curiosity and creativity blossom.[32:20] Here, ‘farm to table' tastes more like ‘soil to soul' as Nicole and Fleur invite their guests to satiate conscious indulgences and savor communal dining experiences.Notable Mentions Jennica Arazi of Marbella Club in SpainVisit For YourselfSterrekopje Farm Website | @sterrekopjefarm

Episode Notes S6E9 -- Join us as we sit down with the one and only Rico Anderson. He'll be in the house telling tales from S.W.A.T to Get Gone and beyond. As an award winning actor, a sci fi nerd, the oldest of 11 children on his mothers side (6 biological / 5 adopted) and the 3rd of 4 children on his fathers side, Rico was born in Seaside/Monterey, CA and raised on the south side of Chicago as well as the San Francisco Bay Area. It was in Chicago where Rico's love for the arts began. As a little boy, his 3rd grade class went to a touring performance of The Wiz, starring Stephanie Mills. Even at that early age, Rico sat there mesmerized and amazed at the performances. Memories from that performance stuck in the back of his mind and would not surface until a few years later when his family moved to Berkeley, California. The bug bit again and Rico started performing in several plays and Independent films. Rico also majored in Theatre Arts at San Francisco State University. Eventually, Rico moved to Los Angeles and has been blessed to have many film, television, voice over and theatre credits to his name.

Dr. Ranjbar defines embodied leadership as a holistic integration of mind, body, and spirit, rooted in indigenous wisdom and community-centered leadership. She shares how her upbringing in post-revolution Iran, immigration to the U.S., and experiences in medicine exposed her to systemic oppression and disembodied leadership, fueling her commitment to transformative leadership.She talks about shifting away from traditional, rigid medical models and embracing a more holistic way of supporting patients and communities. Throughout the conversation, she emphasizes the importance of intuition, emotional awareness, and non-hierarchical collaboration. She also shares how reconnecting with her Iranian heritage has fueled her passion for liberation and healing on a global scale.BioBorn and raised in Tehran, Iran until immigrating to the US in adolescence, Dr. Noshene Ranjbar developed a passion for a holistic view of medicine and healing from early on in her life. Throughout her studies and life experiences, including her own illness as well as caring for her mom who suffered from several autoimmune illnesses and cancer, to fostering refugee children with PTSD, to working with American Indian communities across the U.S., she developed a keen interest in approaches to healing trauma and advocating for holistic mental health in empowering, culturally appropriate ways.Dr. Ranjbar completed undergraduate and medical school at the University of Virginia, followed by Family Medicine Internship at Middlesex Hospital/Hartford Hospital, Psychiatry Residency at the University of Arizona-Tucson, and Child and Adolescent Psychiatry Fellowship at Boston Children's Hospital/Harvard Medical School. Board Certified in General Psychiatry, Child & Adolescent Psychiatry, and Integrative Medicine, Dr. Ranjbar currently serves as Associate Professor of Psychiatry and Director of the Integrative Psychiatry Program at the University of Arizona. She also serves on Faculty with The Center for Mind-Body Medicine, the Andrew Weil Center for Integrative Medicine, and the Integrative Psychiatry Institute.Her research focuses on training the next generation of psychiatrists to offer a holistic approach to mental health, while serving children and families most in need.

Animal products are the only source of dietary cholesterol; they are also the primary source of saturated fat in our diet, which is associated with higher blood cholesterol levels.  Helps prevent type 2 diabetes  Approximately one in three American adults has prediabetes—a risk factor for developing type 2 diabetes.   Kidney health In the United States, about 30 million adults have chronic kidney disease—and most aren't aware of it. One in three American adults are at risk for chronic kidney disease. Risk factors for kidney disease include diabetes, high blood pressure, heart disease, obesity, and family history.  Boosts immune system function  A healthy plant-based diet can help strengthen your immune system to aid in fighting viruses and help you recover more quickly from illness.   Supports a healthy weight Maintaining a healthy weight can reduce the risk of serious health problems. Substituting more plant-based foods in place of meat can help contribute to a healthier body weight.  Lowers greenhouse gas emissions  Nearly 15% of global greenhouse gas emissions come from the production of meat, dairy, and eggs—more greenhouse gases than the world's entire transportation sector—cars, trucks, planes, trains—combined. Eating more plant-based foods can help reduce emissions associated with meat production.  Saves water  Meat, particularly beef, has the highest water footprint of all foods. Eating a more plant-based diet has the potential to decrease agricultural water use by 50%.  Prevents deforestation  Livestock production uses 75% of the Earth's agricultural land. Shifting to a more plant-based diet reduces deforestation while decreasing agricultural land use by 80%.  Reduces species loss Livestock production is the biggest human contributor to species decline and has led to an over 60% decline in species populations since 1970.   Meatless Mondays Helps build healthy habits  Research suggests that people are more open to trying healthy behaviors at the start of the week. Monday offers a weekly opportunity to “reset” and get back on track. Studies show that people who restart a healthy habit at the beginning of the week are better able to maintain progress over time.  Fosters discovery of new foods Use Meatless Monday as an opportunity to explore new types of recipes, ingredients, and cuisines. Experiment with unfamiliar foods to find new favorites.    Saves money Foods like beans, lentils, and tofu are cost-effective protein sources that are typically less expensive than many types of meat, seafood, and poultry. One study found people saved 16% on food costs by switching to a plant-based diet.  Expands culinary skills  With new ingredients comes the need for new cooking methods. Try using different techniques like braising, air frying, stuffing, and puréeing to make meals more exciting.   Strengthens a growing movement Meatless Monday is active in more than 40 countries and available in countless schools, companies, and communities around the world.  Photo: www.twospoons.ca Recipe “Creamy Vegan Mushroom Pasta” https://www.twospoons.ca/creamy-vegan-mushroom-pasta/

The tree-like crystals featured in the dendritic mineral habit branch in one or more directions from a central point. Keep reading to discover the powerful healing properties of Dendritic Agate!

Dendritic Agate encourages you to branch out and explore your family tree or your lineage if you feel called to connect with this part of yourself (it can also help support you as you work on healing ancestral wounds if that feels more appropriate).  Keep this stone on the ground while you're researching your family to stay grounded and rooted in your family's history while you're branching out and exploring your family tree. Place it between or under your feet to keep you connected and centered while journeying into your ancestry.  It will help you stay focused on what is most important for you to discover and reflect upon. Placing a Dendritic Agate close to the windows or doors in your home can help facilitate energetic cleansing to draw unwanted energy out of your space.     When you're just starting out with crystal healing, the wealth of information out there can make it tricky to know where to start.

On this episode of the Another Way To See It podcast, we talk about the concept of Kinkeeping. Kinkeeping is a term brought into modern consciousness by Sociologist, Caroline Rosenthal in 1985 in an article called "Kinkeeping in the Familial Division of Labor".  ”Kinkeepers play an important role in maintaining family cohesion and continuity. Their efforts contribute significantly to the family's social capital, providing emotional support and a sense of belonging to family members.” Kinkeeping: ·      Helps extended family members of stay in touch with one another. ·       Facilitates the transfer of family, traditions, values, and histories from one generation to the next.·      Fosters the well-being of the familial unit.Kinkeeping activities include: writing letters, telephone calls, visiting, sending gifts, caregiving, providing financial help.  Kinkeeping is largely the role of women or the feminine in relationship and is seen as unpaid labor.   We always love to hear from you, reach out:https://www.instagram.com/anotherwaytoseeitpodcast/Support our show:   https://www.buzzsprout.com/1694878/supporters/new Coaches: Kim Moranhttps://www.kimmorancoaching.com/https://www.instagram.com/kimcalifornia/ Tracy Holemeyerhttps://www.uncontrollablyme.com/https://www.instagram.com/uncontrollably_me/ Produced by: Kim MoranMusic: A Rush of Inspiration by Evan Mac Donald Support the show
