Podcasts about Foundation

You've set goals before and watched them fall apart six months later. Maybe you thought you had a solid foundation. Maybe you didn't. I'm pulling from 25 years of coaching experience and thousands of hours working with people just like you. What I've learned is this: you need a peaceful base before you chase any goal. Six domains of life that have to be balanced first, or everything crumbles. Think of it like an audio console. Get the levels wrong at the start, and everything downstream is a mess. Get them right, and you can reach for anything. Featured Story My daughter invited me to help with the audio at her church. I produce, I direct, I've got the background. So I stepped in. When you're the audio guy behind that big console, two things are true. You get all the blame. And if you lose control of the balance, you're in serious trouble. Every service starts the same way. You've got 8, 10, 12 people on stage. The very first thing I do is set the foundation - the input levels for every mic, every instrument. Get that wrong, and everything downstream falls apart. Feedback, hot mess, scary stuff. I started thinking about how this applies to life. What if we got the levels right from the beginning? What if we balanced everything before chasing the big goals? That's when the peaceful base concept clicked. Important Points Most people fail at goals because their foundation has cracks they don't even know about. Six domains need balance: time, body, mind, money, relationships, and spirit - in that order. Get these levels right first, and you can chase the biggest goals without upsetting your peaceful base. Memorable Quotes "Time is yours. It's limited in what you have. There's only so much time in the day, and everything you do will take time." "Financial security provides true choice. It's mobility in life." "Connections that are nurtured, not sacrificed." Scott's Three-Step Approach Take inventory of the six domains and identify where you're out of balance right now. Fix the small challenges first before setting any big goals for next year. Maintain that peaceful base as you grow so you don't mess up what you've got.

Your body is the only place you have to live. Isn't it time to start listening to what it's telling you?Dr. Sherry McAllister, President of the Foundation for Chiropractic Progress and author of "Adjusted Reality," joins Brigitte Cutshall to discuss the transformative power of chiropractic care. Both women share their journeys from a debilitating car accident to discovering drug-free healing through proper spinal alignment. Dr. McAllister explains how modern sedentary lifestyles, poor posture, and daily choices impact our nervous system and overall wellbeing. 3 Key Takeaways:(1) Prevention over reaction. Chiropractors focus on keeping you healthy rather than just treating illness, addressing the root cause of discomfort before it becomes chronic pain or disease.(2) Small daily choices compound. Everything from your shoes and pillow to your desk setup and posture affects your body's alignment; making one small improvement each day creates significant change over time.(3) The body heals itself. Proper nervous system alignment enables your body's natural healing abilities to function optimally, often eliminating the need for pain medication and supporting overall vitality.Find a chiropractor near you at https://f4cp.org/findadoctorLearn more about preventative care and optimal living at https://f4cp.org/adjustedreality and to get Dr. McAllister's book.

Fashion Week may spotlight bold heels, sculpted silhouettes, and statement accessories—but once the runway lights fade, a deeper question remains: what are these trends doing to our bodies? Dr. Sherry McAllister, president of the Foundation for Chiropractic Progress and author of Adjusted Reality: Supercharge Your Whole-Being for Optimal Living and Longevity, brings more than 25 years of clinical expertise to the conversation. After attending Fashion Week this year, Dr. McAllister shares eye-opening insights on how fashion choices—on the runway and in everyday life—affect posture, spinal alignment, breathing, and long-term health. From how high heels can dramatically increase spinal load, to the hidden strain caused by handbags and tight clothing, she explains how small, intentional adjustments can help anyone move with greater ease, confidence, and longevity. Blending real-world observations from conversations with New Yorkers during Fashion Week with practical, science-backed guidance, Dr. McAllister offers a fresh perspective at the intersection of style, whole-being health, and presence—proving that looking good doesn't have to come at the cost of feeling good.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/i-am-refocused-radio--2671113/support.Subscribe now at YouTube.com/@RefocusedNetworkThank you for your time. 

Acts 2:1-13; Ephesians 2:19-22 // Brooks NesseThis sermon connects the Day of Pentecost (Acts 2:1-13) with the imagery of the Church as God's Temple (Ephesians 2:19-22). Acts describes the arrival of the Holy Spirit with wind and fire, enabling believers to speak in other languages, breaking down barriers of nationality and race. Ephesians explains the profound result: we are no longer strangers but fellow citizens and part of God's household, being built together on the foundation of the apostles and prophets, with Christ Jesus as the cornerstone. Discover how the Spirit's power unites a diverse people into one dwelling place for God.SERMON NOTES (YouVersion): https://bible.com/events/PRAYER REQUESTS: https://ccefc.ccbchurch.com/goto/forms/2509/responses/new25.12.21

THE AUTONOMOUS MIDDLE CLASS AS THE REPUBLIC'S FOUNDATION Colleague Victor Davis Hanson. Victor Davis Hanson argues that a stable republic relies on an autonomous middle class, which serves as a buffer between the wealthy and the dependent poor. Drawing on classical history, he warns that modern policies are "hollowing out" this class, creating a peasantry dependent on the state for survival, illustrated by government campaigns depicting adults in a state of perpetual adolescence and reliance. He contends that high taxes and regulations in places like California are driving this productive class away, leaving behind a stratified society of the very rich and the subsidized poor. NUMBER 1

From Swiss banker to international bestselling author, Nathalie Botros shares how choosing self-love over external success became the catalyst for a life and business rooted in joy, authenticity, and impact.In this episode, I sit down with Nathalie Botros, known globally as The Bon Vivant Girl and a powerful Happiness Activator. Nathalie is an author, psychotherapist, mindset architect, and the Executive Editor of Ageless Living Magazine, where she curates stories that celebrate unapologetic living at every age. Our conversation begins with the magic of being together in person and the energy of women truly supporting women, not transactionally, but from a genuine place of “how can I help you.”Nathalie opens up about the pivotal moments that reshaped her life, from leaving a prestigious banking career in Switzerland to searching for fulfillment through fashion, success, and external validation. Despite checking all the “achievement” boxes, she found herself deeply unhappy. That awakening led her inward, where she began dismantling perfectionism, diet culture, and self-criticism, and replacing them with radical self-love. One simple mirror practice changed everything, transforming not only how she saw herself but how the world responded to her.We dive into the science of happiness, the myths women are conditioned to believe, and why self-love is the foundation of confident leadership, healthy relationships, and sustainable success. Nathalie also shares powerful insights for women entrepreneurs: why authenticity fuels growth, how setting boundaries protects your business, and why saying no, especially to unpaid labor, is an act of leadership, not selfishness.This episode is a reminder that true success means building a life where joy, impact, and alignment coexist. Nathalie's story will inspire you to stop chasing validation and start leading from a place of love, clarity, and self-worth. Tune in and let this conversation reset how you live, love, and lead.Chapters

Andy Linerud, Chair of the RCC Foundation Board joins the Exchange along with Randy Weber, the president of Rogue Community College.

Doug Green, Publisher of Technology Reseller News, sat down with Jeff Pulver of the vCon Foundation for an in-depth conversation on the rapid emergence of virtualized conversations (vCons), the intersection of AI and communications, and why the industry is standing at the threshold of an entirely new era. Pulver, widely regarded as a pioneer of internet communications and an early architect of Voice over IP, reflects on how lifelong curiosity—from amateur radio to building the first internet-based telephone networks—shaped his belief that communications innovation is always about enabling connections that were previously impossible. Today, that same philosophy underpins his work with vCons, which he describes as a foundational building block for the AI communications age. At its core, a vCon is a standardized container for conversations—voice, video, text, email, and more—designed to securely capture not only what was said, but also who participated, the context, consent, purpose, and related metadata. Often described as “a PDF for conversations,” vCons make it possible to preserve truth and memory across every interaction, while enabling AI systems to analyze conversations consistently and at scale. Pulver emphasizes that this matters because large language models were trained on open standards, including IETF specifications, making vCons uniquely well suited for reliable AI analysis without constant retraining or hallucination. Pulver argues that while 2025 marked the mainstream adoption of large language models, 2026 will be the year of the vCon, leveling the playing field between small and large organizations by giving all businesses access to deep conversational insights. From customer engagement and compliance to internal collaboration and operational efficiency, vCons allow organizations to move at the speed of AI—without sacrificing trust, consent, or accountability. A major focus of the discussion is the need for education and ecosystem building. Pulver describes the vCon Foundation's mission as combating the biggest obstacle to adoption: ignorance. By promoting interoperability, standards-based development, and collaboration among competitors, the Foundation aims to ensure that vCons become a shared industry asset rather than a fragmented set of proprietary tools. Pulver also previewed the upcoming Spring '26 vCon event in Dallas, scheduled for March 23–26, 2026. The conference will include pre-conference sessions on vCon strategy and theory, the first-ever vCon hackathon, deep dives into AI in business, and a vCon Foundation meeting—bringing together technologists, service providers, policymakers, and innovators to define what comes next. Looking ahead, Pulver believes vCons will soon become a strategic checkpoint for vendors, service providers, and investors alike. As AI and communications converge, organizations that embrace virtualized conversations will be positioned to create smarter services, scalable compliance, and entirely new business models. As he puts it, learning how to spell V-C-O-N is fast becoming another way to spell AI opportunity.

Branch Lotspeich is co-founder and Director of the Rescue Tube Foundation, a non-profit based on Kauai, Hawaii, whose mission is to save lives. Is there a more important purpose for an organization? I don't think so. If you've spent time on the Hawaiian islands, there is a good chance that you've seen, or been in close proximity to a Rescue Tube. Hopefully you've not needed to use one or be saved by one; but that's what they are there for… and that's exactly what they do. Hundreds of these “public access rescue devices” are strategically placed on beaches around the islands (and on the mainland) where there are typically no lifeguards. These Rescue Tubes provide a safe and effective way for a family or community member or any Good Samaritan to save lives when professional lifeguards are not present. Countless rescues have been made with these tubes, and dozens of lives have been saved with their assistance; and no rescuers have been hurt in the process while employing a rescue tube on a rescue. Amazing. Branch tells his story and how he was compelled to jump in deep with the Rescue Tubes and ultimately co-found the Foundation many years ago. Incredible safety statistics have driven significant awareness, accolades and recognition; and it is not slowing down. Branch's legacy and that of the Rescue Tube Foundation will continue to save lives across the Hawaiian Islands and well beyond. Hallelujah.

"None of This Is an Individual Process" (Season 5, Episode 1) welcomes Andy Horwitz, a writer and cultural producer whose work bridges experimental theater and Jewish communal practice in unexpected ways. From his tenure at the Foundation for Jewish Culture during the era of contemporary Jewish cultural renaissance to his current explorations of theatrical form and Jewish thought, Horwitz offers a unique perspective on how Jewish collaborative traditions might reimagine theater-making itself. In this conversation, Horwitz discusses Joe Chaikin and the Open Theater's connection to Jewish communal structures like the morning minyan, why he's more interested in forms that embody Jewish thought than simply Jewish stories, and how theaters might learn from Jewish institutions about collective leadership and sustained community. Drawing on his influential essay "The Theater(s) We Need Now" and his JTS lecture on Jews, Theatre and Performance in an intercultural world, we explore concepts like midrash and tikkun olam as frameworks for understanding theater's civic potential. "On the Bimah" continues to showcase the diversity and depth of contemporary Jewish theatre, led by your host Danielle Levsky. This podcast is an Alliance for Jewish Theatre program, produced by Danny Debner and Danielle Levsky. Our theme music is by Ilya Levinson and Alex Koffman.

On November 8, 2019, 24-year-old Morgan Patten made the long trip from her home down to Jacksonville, NC to visit her fiancé, Phil Brandon, a Marine training at Camp Geiger. After she arrived at her hotel that night, she decided to go out to the nearby Applebee's for a quick dinner before turning in for the night. When she was in the restaurant, she quickly became the target of two predatory Marines who were prowling the area for a victim.

In this episode of The Articulate Fly, host Marvin Cash welcomes Robbie Kroger, founder and Executive Director of The Origins Foundation, for an in-depth conversation about hunting advocacy, wildlife conservation and the sustainable use model that's shaping the future of global conservation efforts.Guest Expertise: From Wetland Scientist to Conservation AdvocateRobbie Kroger brings an unconventional background to hunting advocacy. With a PhD in wetland ecology and aquatic biogeochemistry from the University of Mississippi, six years as a professor in the Wildlife Fisheries Department at Mississippi State and over 100 peer-reviewed publications, Robbie served as chief scientist for the BP oil spill restoration framework. His science-based, measured approach to communication sets The Origins Foundation apart in the hunting advocacy space.What You'll Learn: Reframing the Conservation ConversationDiscover how The Origins Foundation communicates with non-hunters (not anti-hunters) using honesty, respect and scientific reasoning rather than emotional arguments. Robbie explains why sustainable use of wildlife isn't a silver bullet but rather one of only seven critical tools in the limited conservation toolbox. Learn why value-based wildlife management - whether protecting elephant habitat in Africa or managing wolf populations in the American West - creates incentives for local communities to coexist with wildlife rather than eliminate it.Featured Conservation Projects: Global Impact Through ActionRobbie details the world's largest cheetah relocation project, having moved 17 cheetahs into 500,000 acres of Mozambique habitat buffered by 10 million acres of protected land, with three more relocations planned for 2026. Hear about upcoming documentaries including "Sauvons Bambi" (debuting June 2026 in Paris) about European hunters using thermal drones to save roe deer fawns from farm equipment and "In My Footsteps" profiling the first scholarship recipient from a South African hunting charity who became a successful architect. The Foundation is also building schools and clinics in South Africa and Zambia while working on rhino and lion conservation initiatives.Public Lands and Management Philosophy InsightsDrawing on his experience growing up under South Africa's private wildlife ownership model, Robbie contrasts it with America's revolutionary public trust doctrine where wildlife belongs to everyone. He discusses the chronic underfunding of agencies like USFS, USFWS and BLM, arguing that public-private partnerships, biodiversity credits and creative funding models could dramatically improve stewardship. The conversation explores complex topics like fair chase ethics, social media responsibility for hunters and anglers, wolf management controversies and why both sides being upset with you often means you've found the right position.Join the ConversationThe Origins Foundation actively engages with supporters across all social media platforms, typically with Robbie responding personally to messages. Whether attending major hunting shows from Wild Sheep Foundation to Safari Club International or meeting supporters for roadside coffee in Australia, the Foundation maintains an accessible, ego-free approach focused on lifting up the entire conservation community rather than self-promotion.SponsorsThanks to TroutRoutes for sponsoring this episode.

Choosing Yourself Isn't Selfish — It's Necessary In this episode of The One Day at a Time Recovery Podcast, I sit down with Hakeem to talk about what happens when performance, substances, and distractions can no longer protect us from unresolved pain. Hakeem shares how the death of his younger brother, years of buried grief, elite athletics, addiction, and eventually incarceration led him to a moment of total reckoning. Sitting alone in a jail cell — without substances, screens, or distractions — he was finally forced to face himself. What stood out to me most is Hakeem's belief that recovery isn't just about abstinence. It's about returning to our natural state — mentally, emotionally, and physically. Key Takeaways From Our Conversation 1. Addiction Is About Toxic Consumption Many people quit drinking but replace it with sugar, gambling, porn, caffeine, or overworking. The substance changes, but the avoidance doesn't. 2. The Work Has to Happen Before the Trigger If the inner work isn't done first, triggers become breaking points. When the work is done, triggers become opportunities for growth. 3. The TEFIC Framework Triggers – noticing what activates you Environment – what and who surrounds you Foundation – sleep, routines, structure Invest – time, energy, and money into growth Contribution – giving from overflow, not depletion 4. Community Is Where Healing Accelerates There's something powerful about being seen and understood by people who have lived it — not just professionals talking at you, but peers walking alongside you. Action Steps I Encourage You to Try Identify one "acceptable addiction" you might be using to avoid discomfort Build a minimum daily foundation you can keep even on hard days Journal on this question: What keeps showing up as a trigger in my life — and what might it be pointing to? Seek connection, not just more information    

Welcome to Dark Work Daily! Tune in to explore the secrets of resilience and perseverance needed to unlock your full potential.

If you've ever wondered why so many young people are confused about capitalism, skeptical of markets, or convinced that government control is the answer to rising prices and shrinking opportunity, this episode gets straight to the root of the problem.Economic ignorance isn't accidental. It's the predictable outcome of bad policy, bad education, and a culture that treats inflation and government growth as unavoidable facts of life rather than man-made choices. That's why this conversation matters.My guest is Diogo Costa, president of the Foundation for Economic Education (FEE)—one of the most important institutions advancing free markets, individual liberty, and economic understanding. Diogo didn't come to these ideas through theory alone. He lived through inflation firsthand while growing up in Brazil, watching savings evaporate and trust in institutions collapse. That experience shaped his worldview long before he ever led one of the most influential freedom organizations.Today, Diogo is focused on a long game most politicians ignore: building a liberty pipeline by educating students before politics hardens their views and bad ideas take root.

“People are not looking for a perfect, polished answer. They're looking for a human to speak to them like a human,” says Jessica Malaty Rivera, an infectious disease epidemiologist and one of the most trusted science communicators in the U.S. to emerge from the COVID-19 pandemic. That philosophy explains her relatable, judgement-free approach to communications which aims to make science more human, more accessible and less institutional. In this wide-ranging Raise the Line discussion, host Lindsey Smith taps Rivera's expertise on how to elevate science understanding, build public trust, and equip people to recognize disinformation. She is also keen to help people understand the nuances of misinformation -- which she is careful to define – and the emotional drivers behind it in order to contain the “infodemics” that complicate battling epidemics and other public health threats. It's a thoughtful call to educate the general public about the science of information as well as the science behind medicine. Tune in for Rivera's take on the promise and peril of AI-generated content, why clinicians should see communication as part of their professional responsibility, and how to prepare children to navigate an increasingly complex information ecosystem.Mentioned in this episode:de Beaumont Foundation If you like this podcast, please share it on your social channels.

In this final episode of Season 8, you'll get a powerful, inspiring discussion on defending the nonprofit sector amid political intimidation and retrenchment, with a call to action for funders to act with courage rather than caution. The message is clear: a strong democracy depends on a strong, well-resourced nonprofit workforce, and philanthropy must choose to lead boldly in this moment. Host Rusty Stahl, Fund the People's President and CEO, speaks with Dr. Sherece West-Scantlebury, President and CEO of the Winthrop Rockefeller Foundation, as part of the Defend Nonprofits, Defend Democracy series. Reflecting on more than 30 years in philanthropy and her forthcoming retirement at the end of 2025, West-Scantlebury offers a candid assessment of what has — and hasn't — worked in the sector. She traces the evolution of the foundation's equity-centered mission, its focus on working families who are struggling in Arkansas, and how COVID reinforced the urgency of addressing low wages, systemic inequities, and the root causes of poverty.Throughout the conversation, she challenges philanthropy to confront the real costs of sustaining a healthy civil society and to move beyond outdated, restrictive funding models.Dr. West-Scantlebury also details the Winthrop Rockefeller Foundation's commitments to capacity building, nonprofit workforce pay and benefits, leader wellness, and innovative approaches such as enterprise capital. She argues that investing in people — through living wages, flexible funding, wellness stipends, and long-term balance-sheet investments — is essential to nonprofit sustainability and impact.The episode closes with a powerful discussion on defending the nonprofit sector amid political intimidation and retrenchment, with West-Scantlebury urging funders to act with courage rather than caution. Her message is clear: a strong democracy depends on a strong, well-resourced nonprofit workforce, and philanthropy must choose to lead boldly in this moment.Download an edited transcript of this episode⁠This is part 2 of our 2-part Season 8 Finalé.

In this powerful and refreshingly honest episode of What Are You Made Of?, Mike “C-Roc” sits down with Marina Ortega, founder of Scottsdale Hydrotherapy and co-creator of Trust Your Gut, to unpack the real, often unspoken truth about gut health, detoxification, and resilience. Marina shares her deeply personal journey through chronic constipation, black mold exposure, and being bedridden with no clear medical answers, experiences that ultimately pushed her to reclaim her health and dedicate her life's work to helping others do the same. Drawing from nearly 30 years of experience and over 30,000 colon hydrotherapy sessions, Marina explains why the gut is the foundation of vitality, how colonics, castor oil therapy, coffee enemas, and lymphatic support actually work, and why opening detox pathways is critical before any cleanse. The conversation also explores entrepreneurship, fear, and courage — from leaving a secure corporate career to building a trusted wellness community by showing up authentically and talking about the things most people avoid. Known affectionately as the “Poop Fairy,” Marina brings science, compassion, and humor to a topic that affects everyone, empowering listeners to trust their gut, advocate for their health, and take control of their healing journey.Website-www.scottsdalehydrotherapy.comwww.trustyourgut.shop Social Media Links/Handles- https://www.instagram.com/trustyourgutshop/ https://www.instagram.com/scottsdalehydrotherapy/ https://www.instagram.com/marinathepoopfairy/

In this special podcast for the Cloud Communications Alliance (CCA) and Technology Reseller News, Doug Green speaks with Jeff Pulver of the vCon Foundation about the accelerating momentum behind vCon technology and why it will play a defining role in the next era of cloud and AI-powered communications. The conversation was recorded in advance of Cloud Connections 2026, where Pulver will be a featured speaker. Pulver, a long-time pioneer in internet communications and standards development, explains that vCon—short for virtualized conversation—is fundamentally a new way to capture, secure, and analyze conversations across voice, video, messaging, email, and other communication modes. Often described as “a PDF for conversations,” vCon provides a tamper-resistant, optionally encrypted container that preserves not only the dialogue itself, but also participants, attachments, metadata, purpose, consent, and AI-generated analysis. The result, Pulver says, is something businesses have never truly had before: truth and memory for every conversation. Why vCons matter now, Pulver explains, comes down to AI. Large language models were trained early on using open standards, including IETF specifications. Because vCon is emerging as an IETF standard, AI systems already “understand” its structure. This dramatically reduces ambiguity and hallucination when conversational history is analyzed at scale. Instead of constantly retraining AI to interpret proprietary formats, organizations can rely on a standardized conversational container that delivers consistent, reliable results across platforms. Pulver believes this shift creates an opportunity as significant as the rise of cloud communications itself. As AI and communications converge, new services, new revenue streams, and entirely new business models become possible. From “smart” SIP trunks and AI-enhanced collaboration tools to enterprise-wide conversational recall, vCons enable organizations of any size—from solopreneurs to global enterprises—to operate with greater efficiency, compliance, and intelligence. “The people who lose out,” Pulver notes, “are the ones who don't embrace AI.” Looking ahead, Pulver predicts that 2026 will be the year of the vCon, as the ecosystem matures and channel partners, service providers, and enterprises begin turning virtualized conversations into real-world value. For members of the CCA community, he sees vCon as a practical, accessible way to add intelligence, differentiation, and new revenue to existing cloud communications offerings.

In this episode of the EMS One-Stop podcast, host Rob Lawrence revisits an issue close to the heart of every EMS professional: creating a permanent National EMS Memorial in Washington, D.C. Rob is joined by Tony O'Brien and James Robinson from the National EMS Memorial Foundation to provide a clear, candid update on where the project stands, why it matters, and what still needs to be done. From the Weekend of Remembrance to the dream of a year-round place of solace and reverence in the nation's capital, this conversation lays out the long road from idea to reality — and why EMS, as James puts it, truly deserves this. Tony and James walk listeners through the 24-step federal Commemorative Works Act process, the hard work of narrowing 312 potential sites down to three, and the current push to reauthorize the Foundation's federal authority through House Resolution 2196 and Senate Bill 2546. They explain the preferred site in front of the Hubert H.

In this episode of The 10 Ninety Podcast, Mason sits down with Dawn Simmons and her daughter, Katie Derouen, from Louisiana. Dawn and Katie lost three members of their family—Lindy Rae Simmons (20), Christopher Simmons (17), and Kamryn "Kam" Simmons (15)—in a 2021 head-on collision caused by a wrong-way drunk driver, John Christopher Lundy. Dawn shares what she remembers from the night of the crash, the extent of her injuries, and what it was like waking up in the hospital and learning her children were gone. Katie walks through the unthinkable reality of identifying each of her siblings at different hospitals, navigating chaos, confusion, police reports, and the long hours of not knowing who survived. Together, they talk about grief timelines, survivor guilt, community support, faith, anger, and the complicated "what if" spiral that follows catastrophic loss. They also discuss the differences between a mother's grief and a sibling's grief, how holidays and birthdays have changed, and how losing three children at once creates a grief experience unlike anything they'd ever imagined. Dawn and Katie now speak across the country—at schools, hospitals, recovery programs, and safety trainings—sharing their story to help prevent impaired driving and to honor the legacy of Lindy, Christopher, and Kamryn. Their work through the Simmons 3 Foundation continues to impact thousands of students and families. It's a heartbreaking conversation and a powerful reminder that life is 10% what happens to you, and 90% what you're going to do about it.
