Stop balancing D&D encounters and start engineering them. This episode gives Dungeon Masters a simple four-part framework, DICE, for building unique encounters on demand, no math required.You'll learn the four parts of every encounter (Doing, Incentive, Conflict, Effect), see the math behind why you'll never run out of ideas, and watch a brand new encounter get built live from a random combination. Want more encounter design tools in your inbox? Grab the Dungeon Master Level Up Guide: https://session0studios.com/newsletterTopics covered in this episode: why encounter balance is overrated and often wastes prep time, what actually defines an encounter versus a non-event, the role of approach and avoidance motivation (a real psychological theory) in game design, and a full breakdown of the DICE framework for building D&D encounters: Doing (the verb, like Get, Avoid, Destroy, Preserve, Convince, or Build), Incentive (what's at stake, like a person, item, place, reputation, or piece of knowledge), Conflict (what's standing in the way), and Effect (the feel the encounter produces at the table, which falls directly out of the other three).You'll also hear the math behind just how many unique encounters this framework can generate, and watch a brand new encounter, called Out of Control, get built live and unscripted from a randomly generated combination.This episode is for Dungeon Masters and Game Masters looking for D&D encounter design tips, 5e encounter ideas beyond combat, TTRPG game design frameworks, social encounter ideas, chase and puzzle encounter design, and ways to build more varied, less combat-only encounters without spending hours balancing stat blocks.Thanks for listening to today's show.

Recognizing neurodivergence in veterinary medicine is one thing. Knowing what actually helps is another. This week, Dr. Ernie Ward and Beckie Mossor, MPA, RVT, welcome Ron Sosa, CVPM, CCFP, back to the Veterinary Viewfinder for a practical conversation about neurodivergence at work and the supports that can make a real difference. They talk about executive function, masking, the inner critic, imposter syndrome, and the exhaustion that can come from constantly adapting to expectations that don't fit the way your brain works. Ron also shares practical tools he's building for veterinary professionals, including body doubling, structured peer support, coaching, and his C.O.S.T. framework for understanding chronic self-monitoring, over-adaptation, self-criticism, and tension. The conversation also looks beyond the individual. What can veterinary leaders and workplaces do differently to support a wider range of people? If you've ever wondered why certain parts of veterinary work feel harder than they “should,” this episode offers a useful place to start.

What if parenting wasn't primarily about getting our kids to behave—but about shaping the messages they believe about themselves, about us, and about God? In this episode of Parenting Practicals, I'm joined by fellow Connected Families Certified Parent Coach Laura Way to go back to the basics and walk through the Connected Families Framework. This framework guides all of our Parenting Practicals conversations, so whether you're new to the series or have been listening for a while, this episode will help you understand what's behind the tools and strategies we share. Together, we unpack the four core messages we want our children to experience through our parenting: You are safe with me. You are loved no matter what. You are called and capable. You are responsible. We talk about looking beneath behavior, recognizing the strengths that may be showing up "sideways," coaching our kids before correcting them, and approaching correction as an opportunity for restoration rather than punishment. And perhaps most importantly, we remember that these aren't just messages we offer our children—they reflect the way our compassionate Heavenly Father meets us, too. If you're longing for parenting that builds trust, connection, purpose, skills, and wisdom—not perfect behavior—this conversation is a great place to start. Connected Families is a ministry providing biblically grounded, research-informed help for everyday parenting.

Improving bar profitability rarely comes from one big change. More often, it comes from fixing dozens of small problems across your costs, revenue, operations, staff, and guest experience.In this episode, I break down my 50-lever framework for improving your bar, why searching for one magic fix can keep you stuck, and how small operational improvements can compound into meaningful changes in profitability.I get into finding the small levers hiding inside your pour cost, labor scheduling, guest check average, service, training, and overall guest experience; how to audit your operation to determine which changes matter most; and why trying to fix everything at once usually fails. I also walk through how I'd prioritize those improvements, tackle one or two each week, measure the results, and build accountability so the changes actually stick. Because you probably don't need one breakthrough to turn your bar around. You need a list, a pace, and the discipline to make small improvements that compound.

Should my PDA child stay in the public school system, move to a private school, or homeschool? There is no single answer, and this episode is not going to give you one. What it is going to give you is a framework for making the decision that fits your child, your constraints, and this specific season of your family.In this episode I walk through all five characteristics of PDA as they play out in a school or home setting, then move into the three schooling scenarios I see families navigate most: staying in the public school system and advocating for accommodations, finding a private school that is structurally more aligned with a PDA nervous system, and pulling your child out entirely to unschool, deschool, or homeschool. For each one I share what to watch for, what has worked for the families I have coached, and how to use the cost-benefit framework to make and hold a decision even when it is hard.Key Takeaways Why Traditional School Is Structurally Activating and What That Looks Like | 00:01:42 Traditional schools are designed to standardize: every child doing the same thing at the same time in the same way. For a PDA nervous system, that structure produces continuous perceived losses of autonomy, and the behavioral expression of that activation, whether it is equalizing behavior in the classroom or a collapse at home after a day of masking, is what most families are already living with when they find me. What I want parents to understand is that the equalizing and collapse is not defiance. It is not willfulness. It is a nervous system doing exactly what it is wired to do when it perceives repeated losses of autonomy and equality. Advocating in the Public School System: Be Strategic, Not Educational | 00:33:27 When advocating for a PDA child in a US public school, leading with the PDA label rarely works. I give families permission to describe their child as high functioning autistic with severe anxiety or a nervous system disability, using language that the people in the room already have a framework for. From there, the most effective tool is the PLATO nonviolent communication framework: making one specific, granular request that includes a person, location, action, time, and object, so the school can only say yes, no, or propose an alternative. Each answer is data, not a defeat. What to Look for in a Private School and Which Models Have Worked | 00:42:38 The question I ask every private school when evaluating fit is: does every child have to do the same thing at the same time in the same way? The models that have worked most consistently for families I have coached are Montessori and Reggio Emilia for their mixed-age classrooms, built-in choice, and absence of homework and grades; Sudbury Democratic Schools for their consent-based, student-governed structure; and trauma-informed schools that do not default to exposure as the primary intervention for anxiety. Even within the public system, some charter schools and schools of choice have been workable when a parent has been able to build a genuine relationship with specific staff. Unschooling Is Not Independent Play: The Four Regulating States | 00:53:59 The most common mistake families make when they begin unschooling is assuming the child will go off and self-direct once the external structure is removed. What I observe is that PDA children need nervous system scaffolding to engage with anything. The four regulating states that help during this period are screens, another safe nervous system offering undivided attention, special interest or flow, and dopamine-intense or sensory-seeking activity. If a child is in burnout, they may only be able to access two of these. Starting there, without expectation or timeline, is the beginning of recovery, not a sign that unschooling is failing. Strewing, Declarative Language, and Letting Go of the Timeline | 00:54:42 The three tools I return to most consistently with unschooling families are strewing, declarative language, and releasing the timeline. Strewing means leaving things out in the environment that the child can engage with or not, without expectation. Declarative language replaces direct questions and imperatives with observational statements so the child retains autonomy over whether and how to engage. And letting go of the timeline is the hardest but most necessary piece, because a parent's urgency about reading, socialization, or catching up is itself perceived by the PDA nervous system as an agenda, which activates the very resistance we are trying to reduce.Relevant Resources Paradigm Shift Program — My signature program where the five-characteristic framework, cost-benefit decision making, the PLATO advocacy tool, and the full unschooling and accommodation approach described in this episode are taught across twelve weeks of live coaching.Mentioned in this episode:Free Live WorkshopI'm offering a free live workshop this month: "Supporting your PDA child or teen through burnout without breaking yourself in the process."Free Live Workshop Registration
What if living longer and better has less to do with extreme diets and biohacks, and more to do with a few simple habits you already know you should be doing?In this episode of Owning Your Legacy, host Laurette Rondenet sits down with Dr. Avanti Kumar-Singh, MD, a physician, Ayurvedic expert, and author of The Longevity Formula and The Health Catalyst. During her emergency medicine training, Dr. Avanti was 20 pounds overweight, battling headaches and stomach problems, and every lab came back "normal." She went back to the Ayurvedic lifestyle she grew up with, one small change at a time, and has spent the past 20 years bringing 5,000 years of Ayurvedic wisdom together with Western medicine.Dr. Avanti makes the case that longevity is really about healthspan: reaching 95 or 100 while you are still active, sharp, independent, and connected to the people and work that matter to you. And she shows how to get there without overhauling your life.Inside the conversation:• Healthspan vs. lifespan: why the anti-aging conversation misses the point• The 12-12-12 framework: 12 minutes of morning sunlight, a 12-hour overnight fast, and 12 minutes of daily stress reduction• Why women's sweet spot for fasting is 12 to 14 hours, and how longer fasts can stress hormones• Rest is not sleep: micro-breaks, breathwork, and why stress management is inflammation management• Doshas at work and at home: using Vata, Pitta, and Kapha to understand your team, your partner, and yourself• Grounding, prana, and why a walk among trees feels so restorative• Her breast cancer journey, why she calls Ayurveda "protective, not just preventative," and learning to receive loveBooks & resources mentioned:• The Longevity Formula by Dr. Avanti Kumar-Singh• The Health Catalyst by Dr. Avanti Kumar-Singh• Dosha assessment and weekly articles: The Weekly Health Rx on Substack (avantikumarsingh.substack.com)• The Healing Catalyst PodcastConnect with Dr. Avanti at avantikumarsingh.com, on Instagram (@avantikumarsingh), and on LinkedIn.

Visit RIMS.org/RISKWORLD to register. [2:32] Our guest today is one of the top ambassadors of New Orleans. I'm talking about Mark Romig, best known as the announcer for the New Orleans Saints. He does the play-by-play, and as you will hear from this International Podcasting Day episode, he's got the broadcasting voice. [2:51] We will discuss why New Orleans is a perfect location for RISKWORLD 2027 and how RISKWORLD attendees should prepare for such a fantastic destination. We will discuss Mark's broadcasting legacy and what it takes to host his show, and his interview style and methods. [3:12] We're going to learn about his risk management philosophies. It's all going to be in this episode of RIMScast. Justin explains that this episode was recorded at lunch at Louisiana Joe's, in Oceanside, New York, dining Cajun to get into the spirit of RISKWORLD 2027. [3:45] First, Mark has a special thank you: "I want to thank the great folks at Louisiana Joe's for hosting Justin today, and I'll have to put my order in. Do you all do take-out?" [4:00] Interview! Live from Oceanside, New York, Mark Romig. Welcome to RIMScast! [4:16] Justin is recording from his favorite restaurant, Louisiana Joe's, in Oceanside, New York. He has the St. Charles Chicken Sandwich. Mark would like to reach through the screen and take some to New Orleans. Justin says this is a hopping place. It's great! [5:03] Mark says he will be at RISKWORLD 2027 in New Orleans. Mark suggests meeting Justin there at one of the many New Orleans restaurants. [5:37] Mark's father, Jerry Romig, was in broadcasting for many years. He became well known in the community by being the Saints announcer for 44 years inside the Superdome and before that at the Tulane Stadium. He never missed a game for 446 consecutive games. [6:21] Mark picked it up after his father retired in 2013, so this is his 14th season with the Saints in the Superdome. There has been a Romig voice in the stadium for 58 years. Jerry and Mark both have a deviated septum that gives them the same tonal quality. [6:54] Mark emulates Jerry's first-down calls. That's his homage to his Dad, to keep that same call going. [7:54] Mark says there are many aspects of New Orleans that appeal to everyone. He believes that it is the center of culture in this part of the world for history, music, food, and architecture. New Orleans is very walkable. Everything is concentrated. You don't need to take long bus rides. [8:34] Mark says, once you're in the central core of New Orleans, everything is within walking distance. The Morial Convention Center, where RISKWORLD will be, is right along the Great Mississippi Riverfront. [8:51] Mark says New Orleans has hundreds of great restaurants and over 40 museums, including the National World War II Museum. People come for important meetings like RISKWORLD or just to come on vacation. [9:30] Mark says the Morial Center has recently completed upgrades and renovations for over $600 million. It is one of the larger meeting facilities in the U.S. [9:49] We keep saying, "New Orleans is built to host. We have all the technology. We have all the services. We have all the things that make a meeting complete in one place. It's very much a walkable city." [10:18] Mark says New Orleans is charming. It's very hospitable. It's not uncommon to be walking down the street, and you may not know the person walking toward you, but that person's going to say, "How's your Mama?" or "How are you doing?" or "Good morning." [10:31] Mark says we just enter into conversations with strangers because we're a very welcoming type of community. Everyone is welcome here. [11:03] Mark talks about what you should be looking for on a menu in New Orleans. Red beans and rice is a staple, with sausage or ham, and the spices that go into it. [11:25] Look for Creole foods like shrimp etouffee, crawfish etouffee, fresh seafood like trout, redfish, or any one of the great delicacies coming out of the Gulf, boiled, baked, sauteed, or fried. We have oyster soup, fried oysters, and charbroiled oysters. [12:05] Mark says, "I'm making myself hungry now, watching you eat and thinking about food! As soon as this interview is over, I'm going out to have lunch." Justin says he's never had Louisiana-style oysters, but he will. [12:34] Justin says RISKWORLD has a lot of international attendees, and RIMS has a very sizeable Canadian membership. Justin asks about the connection between French-Canadian Acadians and Louisiana's Cajun culture. [12:54] Mark says a very important group of Canadians migrated down into Louisiana over 100 years ago from the Nova Scotia area and settled in the Southwest area of Louisiana. Many Louisianians take regular trips back to Canada to see family members still living there. [13:28] There are parts of Louisiana that still speak Canadian French. It's a community outside of Canada that Louisiana has become to Canada. We love our Canadian visitors, and we look forward to hosting them. [13:52] Mark says we have a strong French Consul General here. He mentions the Louisiana CODOFIL Program, which teaches students French in many Louisiana schools. [14:16] Mark says the Cajun French has its own culture and its own joie de vivre, as well as its own food creations. Louisiana is one of the most international states in the U.S. [14:52] Mark says you should not leave New Orleans without having café au lait and beignets. There are many places you can find those. [15:00] You probably will want to try them at Café du Monde, right off of Jackson Square, along the Mississippi River. Get your order and then go sit by the river and watch that river traffic. It's a magnificent way to experience the Mississippi River. [15:34] Mark says Jackson Square is the most historic part of New Orleans, with the St. Louis Cathedral, the second-oldest basilica in the U.S. [15:44] Justin has been to Café du Monde, and he suggests you will need to build in some time for standing in line. Mark says the line moves pretty fast. He also says don't wear dark-colored clothing because the powdery sugar tends to go everywhere. [16:07] A Quick Break!

[17:06] Let's Return to Our Interview with the Host of the Mark Romig Show, Mark Romig! [17:21] This episode is coming out just before International Podcast Day, September 30th. Mark is a podcast host. This is the second RIMScast official International Podcast Day episode. Justin says, we're very glad that Mark is here. [17:51] Justin asks how Mark puts his own stamp on announcing sports. Mark says you develop a certain way of bringing the fans into the game by punching certain calls. In calling the Saints games in the Superdome, the NFL allows the hometown announcer to punch certain things. [18:13] Mark says he is a fan, but he has to be somewhat neutral. He took what his Dad did for 44 years, and he built on some of his calls. That was important. He has a couple of calls he developed himself. He thinks of his Dad as the GOAT, and he's keeping the seat warm. [18:48] Mark says his Dad would do the voice at home, talking about what happened at the game. He was on the local NBC affiliate for many years and developed his own tone. Mark says, even though we're from New Orleans, hearing his television voice a lot affected how we speak. [19:21] Mark says, depending on what party he's at, he might kind of drift into a New Orleans accent, but at the stadium or on his podcast, he uses the voice you hear now. [19:40] Justin says he often hosts the podcasts in the confines of his home, but when his kids hear him using the RIMScast voice, they tell him to stop doing the RIMScast voice. They hear it and think he's about to get angry. Mark leaves his voice at the Dome. [20:37] Mark is also the stadium voice for the Bayou Classic and the All-State Sugar Bowl. He has his podcast, the Mark Romig Show, on the LoveNOLATV YouTube channel. Mark has had guests Bryan Batt from Mad Men, Coach Kellen Moore from the Saints, and other personalities. [21:29] Mark says we try to keep things on the positive side and talk about current events people can participate in. He says we try to uplift in our show. Justin talks about Mark's mother appearing on the show. Justin says the show promotes goodwill. [22:22] Mark says we're doing it on a regional basis. They were picked up by the Gulf Coast Sports & Entertainment Network, reaching an audience along the Mississippi, Louisiana, and Alabama Gulf Coast. [22:53] Justin talks about eating lunch and says the restaurant, Louisiana Joe's, is always hopping. As far as Justin knows, it's the only Cajun sandwich shop around him. There are a couple of crab places, but they don't hold a candle to Louisiana Joe's. [23:44] Speaking of his podcast, Mark says if you bring on the right personality, you let them tell their story. Mark tries to minimize his involvement to give them time to speak about themselves and what makes them tick. He seeds a small question and lets them take it from there. [24:16] Mark says he's learning so much. It's like going back to school when he's talking to these wonderful individuals about their work and their passion for what they do, giving them the space to be who they are. [24:33] Mark looks at it as storytelling. In his tourism work, Mark tells the story. On his podcast, he enjoys his guests telling their stories. [24:50] Justin said he had to learn early on to ask an open-ended question and just hang back and let the person open up a bit. Justin doesn't ask hard-hitting questions about current events; he asks about risk management. [25:15] Mark says what RIMScast does is so important to the industry. It builds comfort so people can continue in their business and know they will be taken care of if anything should happen. [25:31] Mark says in storytelling, people can find a lot in common if they just listen to people and understand where they're coming from. If I can build bridges, that's the key.

[26:39] Let's Return to Our Interview with Mark Romig! [26:49] Justin turns the conversation to risk management. He asks Mark which framework he would recommend, between the COSO Enterprise Risk Management Framework, the ISO 31000 Framework, or ISO standards, generally. [27:14] Mark would lean toward ISO 31000 because of its flexibility and its applicability across different types of organizations and risk environments. [27:25] Mark says he likes that it provides the principles and a framework for integrating risk management into decision-making without being overly prescriptive about how an organization must implement it. [27:37] Mark says that adaptability is particularly valuable because effective risk management must reflect an organization's strategy, culture, and specific risk profile. [27:50] Justin says he finds that answer incredibly insightful and he had no idea Mark was so well-versed in risk management. [28:01] Mark says, "Because we love RIMS so much, I am reading up and ready." Justin suspects Mark of tearing into the RIMS whitepapers at RIMS.org/RiskKnowledge. Mark says, "Gary LaBranche is a good teacher; let me just tell you that." [28:18] Mark is friends with RIMS CEO Gary LaBranche. In the 1990s, they both served on the International Board of Tau Kappa Epsilon, a collegiate fraternity founded in 1899. They served as International Chairman of the Board of Directors of Tau Kappa Epsilon [28:50] Mark and Gary remained friends. Mark saw him last month in New Orleans at the international conclave for Tau Kappa Epsilon. They toasted their friendship. [29:09] Justin says he saw Gary the night before this recording at the Spencer Funding Their Future Gala at the Waldorf Astoria in New York City. [29:26] Justin asks Mark how viable ISO 31000 remains as a Framework for organizations looking to establish a consistent enterprise-wide approach to risk management. [29:41] Mark says ISO 31000 remains highly viable because it provides organizations with a common language and principles for thinking about risk but without prescribing a one-size-fits-all methodology. [29:55] Mark says its real value is in helping risk management become integrated into decision-making and organizational processes, rather than functioning as a stand-alone exercise. [30:06] Mark says the framework gives organizations a strong foundation while still allowing them to adapt their approach to their own strategy, their own culture, and their own risk environment. Justin agrees. Mark stresses adaptability and flexibility. [30:54] Mark says the strongest risk professionals need a combination of analytical skills, business acumen, and communication skills. [31:08] You have to be able to understand complex risks, then you have to translate them into language that business leaders can act on, and then build relationships across an organization so that risk management becomes part of everyday decision-making. [31:26] Mark says, most importantly, you need curiosity. You have to keep learning. The environment changes all the time. The risk landscape is constantly changing. Keep asking the questions. [32:07] Mark reads the newspaper every day. He's curious about not only what's happening in New Orleans and Louisiana, but also what's happening around the world. That allows him to communicate better when he's speaking with someone he's just met or someone in his office. [32:25] Mark reads the newspaper for his own edification. He likes being in the know. He says a good risk manager is a curious person. [32:55] Mark talks about risk management for the Saints. You start with the Senior Vice President of Finance, responsible for the safety and welfare of the business enterprise. [33:18] The General Manager, Mickey Loomis, is concerned about the risk of the entire organization, as is the President of the organization, Dennis Lauscha, and Mrs. Benson, the owner. It's her club. It's her asset, and she's always concerned about the risks that are involved. [33:38] The Assistant Equipment Manager makes sure that the equipment is in the best shape possible.

The Paid Search Podcast | A Weekly Podcast About Google Ads and Online Marketing
In this episode, Chris Schaeffer (the best Google Ads manager in the world) breaks down how Responsive Search Ads (RSAs) actually work and why a "Poor" Ad Strength rating directly causes higher CPCs, fewer impressions, and lower search positions. We uncover three massive misconceptions search marketers make, including why RSAs optimize for clicks instead of conversions, why Dynamic Keyword Insertion isn't a magic shortcut for asset diversity, and why writing throwaway headlines backfires when Google only displays two lines. Plus, we explore a real-world audit example where bad ad copy triggered a costly feedback loop targeting job seekers instead of clients.To wrap up, Chris Schaeffer reveals his exact formula for structuring ad copy: a headline-pinning framework that locks in your core message while letting machine learning test your supporting features, benefits, CTAs, and trust factors.

What changes when you stop waiting to feel motivated and start showing up with discipline, purpose, and presence? In this episode, Joshua Stamper is joined by speaker, coach, entrepreneur, endurance athlete, and leadership strategist Ronnel Blackman. Ronnel shares the P.R.E.S.E.N.C.E. framework, a practical approach to helping leaders show up more intentionally in their professional and personal lives. Ronnel explains why discipline is more reliable than motivation, especially when leaders are tired, stressed, distracted, or managing competing responsibilities. He also shares why effective communication begins with listening, emotional awareness, clarity, and a willingness to receive feedback that helps us grow. This conversation explores how leaders can build stronger systems, keep promises to themselves, create meaningful relationships, and lead in a way that makes others feel seen, heard, and energized. Ronnel also breaks down the eight elements of P.R.E.S.E.N.C.E., including physical discipline, resilience, effective communication, self-image, energy, environment, community, execution, and elevated purpose. About Ronnel Blackmon Ronnel Blackmon is a keynote speaker, professional emcee, entrepreneur, marathoner, husband, and father who helps leaders understand a powerful truth: before people experience your leadership, they experience your presence. Through his P.R.E.S.E.N.C.E. Framework, Ronnel helps educators and leaders strengthen three essential disciplines—physical discipline, resilience, and effective communication—so they can better lead themselves, connect with others, and create meaningful impact. His philosophy is simple: Discipline Over Motivation. Because motivation may get you started, but discipline determines who you become.

Drawing on their extensive experience in education, Charle Peck and Joshua Stamper challenge outdated disciplinary practices and offer a clear, trauma-informed framework that empowers educators to interpret student behavior as a form of communication. Through three core tenets—Consider the Environment, Explore the Root Causes of Behavior, and Respond with Intentionality—this book equips leaders with actionable strategies to foster positive behavior, build stronger relationships, and cultivate a more supportive school climate. Packed with real-world case studies, evidence-based practices, and insights into the lasting effects of childhood trauma, The Language of Behavior provides school leaders with the tools to create lasting, meaningful change. It offers a roadmap to reduce behavior issues, re-engage students and staff, and establish a culture of accountability and empathy. This book is not just a reference—it's a call to lead with vision and transform how we approach discipline, ensuring every student has the opportunity to thrive.

Send us Fan Mail What if the colleague you've been describing as "quirky" is the most underused talent in your building? In this episode of Coaching the Whole Educator, Becca Silver sits down with Justin Permenter of NDI Institute to talk about building workplaces where neurodivergent educators, coaches, and leaders can perform, contribute, and lead without lowering expectations. Roughly one in five people is neurodivergent, including people with ADHD, autism, dyslexia, and dyspraxia. Yet most schools and organizations are built for neurotypical ways of working by default. Students get IEPs and 504 plans. Adults get a workplace that expects everyone to sit at the same table, the same way, on the same timeline. Justin shares his journey from the classroom in Kansas City to international education in Qatar and his work with Franklin Covey's Leader in Me, plus the story of Omar, a 16-year-old autistic intern who outperformed full-time staff at the Waldorf Astoria within three weeks. Becca opens up about her own ADHD diagnosis and the moment she started seeing it as a strength instead of a deficit. You'll learn: Why accommodation and compliance checklists aren't the same as strengths activationHow curiosity (the C in NDI's CLEAR framework) replaces judgment when a colleague works differentlyWhat "results alignment" means: keeping outcomes high while allowing multiple pathways to get thereOne thing school leaders and instructional coaches can do tomorrow to lead more neuroinclusivelyPerfect for instructional coaches, principals, district leaders, and anyone who leads adults in schools.

In this episode of the Planet MicroCap Podcast, I spoke with Sean Westropp, Founder and Portfolio Manager at Deep Sail Capital, to dig into his four pillars framework for finding exceptional growth companies - and why running both sides of the book makes him a sharper long investor. We break down how he balances quality, management, growth prospects, and valuation across a portfolio split between emerging and established growth names, why outstanding management is the one pillar he refuses to compromise on, and what the 2022 drawdown permanently changed about how he manages a portfolio. We also get into his criteria for shorting in microcap, why defense has been his best-performing sector, and the hard lessons on headline risk.

What Is Relational Psychotherapy – Reflective Journals in Counselling Training In Episode 385 of the Counselling Tutor Podcast, your hosts Rory Lees-Oakes and Ken Kelly take us through this week's three topics: Firstly, in 'Ethical, Sustainable Practice', they explore ethical decision-making - the six-question rationale in the 2026 BACP Ethical Framework. Then in 'Practice Matters', Rory speaks with Clare Ratcliffe about relational psychotherapy - how the therapist's presence and use of self shape therapeutic change. And finally, in 'Student Services', Rory and Ken discuss reflective journals in counselling training - why they matter and how to keep them well. The Six-Question Rationale in the 2026 BACP Ethical Framework [starts at 02:33 mins] In this section, Rory and Ken explore the six-question rationale in the 2026 BACP Ethical Framework and what it means for everyday decision-making. Key points discussed include: The new BACP Ethical Framework comes into force in November 2026, and from that date every BACP member must work to it, with collaboration running as a theme throughout. The six-question rationale will be mandatory and forms the basis of defensible decision-making, recording not just what a practitioner decided but the thinking behind how they reached that decision. The first question asks the practitioner to identify the ethical issues and describe the challenge in clear, neutral and factual language, which is harder than it sounds and underpins everything that follows. The middle questions focus on engaging the person affected by the decision, and on weighing internal factors such as identity, contract and the therapist's own responses alongside external factors such as law, safeguarding duties and organisational policy. The final questions cover what decisions and actions were taken and why, and how the process was reviewed and with whom, bringing the rationale full circle back to collaboration. Rory and Ken encourage practitioners to take this to supervision, keep the ethical framework close at hand as a living document, and read any accompanying good practice documents for the detail. What Is Relational Psychotherapy [starts at 40:51 mins] In this week's 'Practice Matters', Rory speaks with Clare Ratcliffe about relational psychotherapy and how the therapist's presence, attunement and use of self support positive change. Key points from this conversation include: The therapist's presence is a huge part of the work, as clients experience therapy differently depending on how well the therapist knows and uses themselves in the room. Attunement to the client shapes pace, tone and response, brings safety to the relationship, and is quickly felt when it is missing, which itself becomes something to explore. Transference happens all the time, and noticing who a therapist may represent to a client, rather than simply reacting, allows old wounds to be healed through a new relational experience. Countertransference is inevitable and useful information rather than a failing, but it needs to be managed so the therapist's own story does not bleed into the work. Self-disclosure should be used mindfully, since disclosing can place unspoken restrictions on the client, and the urge to disclose is itself worth taking to supervision. Good personal therapy and supervision are essential to looking after the therapist, and Clare encourages therapists to bring even shame-laden material, including erotic transference, to their supervisor. Online Group Supervision Claire runs online group supervision for counsellors and psychotherapists working with couples and relationship therapists, offering a space to reflect on practice, share experiences and explore the challenges of relationship work.

Key points include: Counselling training is as much about learning yourself as learning theory, and a reflective journal is a powerful way to capture that personal change across the arc of a course. There is no right or wrong way to journal, and the aim is an unedited flow of self, so students should find whatever medium lets them write most freely without stopping to self-correct. A reflective journal must never contain client information, which belongs in a secure, structured note system, as journals can be called for in court and are increasingly handed in as part of a course. Journalling helps students connect theory to lived experience, such as recognising an introjected value in an everyday advert, which makes later reflective assignments far richer. Because journals may be seen by a tutor or moderator, students can practise selective transparency and even keep a fuller private version alongside the one they submit. Reflective journals should be kept somewhere safe from prying eyes, as personal material shared in a journal can be misused, and the journey of self-reflection continues well beyond training.

Why do some people achieve extraordinary goals while others stay stuck chasing one opportunity after another?After spending decades coaching entrepreneurs, business owners, executives, professional athletes, and high performers, I've discovered that the people who achieve the biggest results don't work harder—they think differently. They start with an ambitious vision, reverse engineer the outcome they want, and focus only on the few actions that create exponential results.In this video, I break down the exact framework I've developed by combining lessons from world-class entrepreneurs, elite psychologists, billionaires, and my own experience building businesses and coaching thousands of people. We'll cover the A-to-B Exercise, Power Law Strategy, Quantum Leaps, and my Blue Marlin Strategy, showing you how these concepts work together to eliminate opportunity confusion and create a clear path toward your biggest goals.Chapters:00:00 - Complete Methodology00:23 - A to B01:06 - Find The Steps01:15 - Power Law Strategy02:22 - Dr. Benjamin Hardy Example03:11 - My Example04:12 - Quantum Leaps and Finding Them 05:33 - Execute 06:40 - Like and Subscribe!________________________________Get connected with Coach Burt:Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/michealburtTikTok - https://www.tiktok.com/@therealcoachburtFacebook - https://www.facebook.com/CoachMichealBurtLinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/in/michealburt
Welcome to the Mind Muscle Connection Podcast!Progressive overload is one of the most important parts of building muscle, but it's also one of the most misunderstood. In this episode I break down my framework for applying progressive overload. I cover how hard your sets should be and how I use rep ranges. From there I explain when to add weight versus when to stay at the same weight to build reps. I also get into why you don't need to beat your numbers every session. Exercise order and recovery both affect your logbook, and forcing progress can backfire over time. So if you want a simple, practical approach to progressive overload and building muscle, this episode is for you.Let's talk about:IntroductionWhat Is Progressive Overload?Why the Body Resists Building MuscleThree Things That Matter for Building MuscleWhat 0 to 3 Reps in Reserve Looks LikeHard Training vs Heavy TrainingWhat the Research Says on Adding Reps vs Adding WeightWhy I Prescribe Rep RangesBuilding Reps Before Adding WeightWhat to Do If You Go Above the Rep RangeWhat to Do If You Fall Below the Rep RangeYou Don't Need to Beat Your Numbers Every SessionHow Exercise Order + Context Affect Your NumbersBe Careful With Forcing Progressive OverloadFinal Thoughts Body Recomp Workshop Replay: https://chipper-producer-6244.kit.com/791129889cFollow me on Instagram for more information and education: https://www.instagram.com/jeffhoehn_/?hl=enHow You Can Work With Me?: https://jhhealth.net/workwithme/Coaching application: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSfE-99wLDZRXlOOY1pWuAmkogdZOm-7ZvN_thbqNWLdNrj5bg/viewform
In Episode 8 of this series, Patrick presents the second set of textual clues that point to the Book of Mormon's author. First he reviews evidence for an ur-text or underlying text of the Book of Mormon. This section includes discussion of many themes and stories from the Bible that are reworked in a sophisticated way in the Book of Mormon. A prime example is the reworking of the narrative on Melchizedek in Hebrews 7 in Alma 13 of the Book of Mormon. The specific reworking points to an author with a deep knowledge of the Bible, one with a careful eye, one with an eye to the future development of the ideas of the higher priesthood and tithing in the future church, and an author who thought they were authorized to correct the Bible's mistakes! Next follows an interesting introduction to the Jacobins and the anti-Jacobin sentiments in the Book of Mormon that go beyond anti-Masonry. The author had an appreciation for this larger narrative in the early 1800 culture. A few additional examples that point to an ur-text are discussed, including Numerology in the text. Next we cover a thorough explanation of the framework William Davis discusses in Visions in a Seer Stone. Patrick recaps how one-to-two hour sermons could be delivered by preachers using only a small paper with “heads” or what we would think of bullet points. The use of heads, skeletal outlines, and mnemonic cues are all present in the Book of Mormon. The author of the Book of Mormon makes very skilled use of all these techniques. The big question is whether Joseph's sermons and writings illustrate the same skilled application? The answer is that they do not and that Davis' entire work points away from Joseph and directly to Sidney Rigdon—a seasoned restorationist preacher as the more likely author. The “one weird trick” to understanding the likely author of the Book of Mormon? The author had a deep well of knowledge, sacred and scientific, to draw upon. There's no shortcut to producing a complex work like the Book of Mormon. Join us for a thoughtful look at the evidence behind one big question: who authored the Book of Mormon?

The Experience Strategy Podcast | theexperiencestrategist.substack.com Part four of a four-part mini-series unpacking the frameworks in Dave Norton's new book, Human Context: How Intelligent Companies Build Customers. You can build the right market strategy, identify the right situations, understand your customer's mode — and still not know if what you built is actually working. Time value is the measurement framework that closes that gap. In this final episode of the series, Dave explains the four categories of time value, how they map to the Stupid/Dumb/Smart/Genius framework, and why AI creates a compounding effect that changes what customers expect from every minute they spend with a product. What's in This Episode Why time value is the right measurement. NPS, sales lift, likelihood to buy — these are all useful, but they measure the company's outcomes. Time value measures the customer's outcome. When someone uses a tool, an app, a service, or an AI, what they're actually asking is: was this worth my time? That question has always mattered. Now, with AI compressing what used to take months into hours, customers' expectations for the value of their time are rising sharply — and companies that measure with yesterday's metrics will miss what's actually happening. The four categories. The framework has been part of Dave and Joe's work for nearly twenty years, and it's now a central chapter in Human Context: Time wasted — the experience consumed time and delivered nothing. The baseline failure case. Time well saved — the experience completed something faster than the alternative. Adjusting a thermostat with Alexa. Quick, functional, done. Time well spent — the experience was worth being in, beyond just efficiency. Engagement mattered. The person was present and got something from it. Time well invested — the time spent now pays dividends later. A skill developed, a relationship deepened, an outcome that compounds. Any experience — dumb, smart, or genius — can land in any of these categories. A pen and paper can be time well invested. A sophisticated AI tool can be time wasted. The category isn't determined by the technology; it's determined by the customer's experience of it. The compounding effect of genius solutions. With AI, there's a fifth dynamic layered on top: compounding. When a well-trained AI starts doing in hours what used to take months, customers don't just experience time saved — they experience something closer to a superpower. And that changes the baseline expectation. The more capable the tool appears, the less tolerance there is for failure. Dave's point: we need measurement frameworks that account for this — because evaluating a genius solution by the same standards as a dumb one misses what's actually at stake. Stupid is in the incident, not just the category. The episode's sharpest clarification comes through a live case study from the TV show The Pit: a hospital AI tool takes dictation and charts for the doctor, immediately freeing up time. But it mishears a drug name and records the wrong medication. Was it time wasted? Joe's framing cuts through the debate cleanly: an incident can be stupid even when the overall tool is smart. The doubter on the show sees the error and says the whole thing is risky. The loyalist says you still have to proof your work. Both are right in their own frame. Dave's conclusion: if errors like that happen repeatedly, the tool loses value. If it happens occasionally and the system learns from it, the tool gets better. The key variable is whether the person using it can train it. The trainability gap. Companies haven't caught up to what consumers now expect from AI tools. People who use Claude, ChatGPT, or Gemini daily have learned to train their tools — to shape responses, correct mistakes, build better versions over time. Then they open Copilot and find a system that can't learn the way they need it to. Dave's diagnosis: the doctor in The Pit should be able to flag the wrong drug and have the system remember. That's what closes the gap between smart and genius. And it's what most enterprise AI deployments are still missing. What's actually working right now. A quick round of AI tools the hosts are finding genuinely useful: A transcription app (beginning with G) that can handle multi-person conversations at a table, distinguishing speakers in real time. OpenAI's voice interface — Dave's son switched from Claude to ChatGPT specifically for this, and Dave says Siri now feels painful by comparison. Google's paid Workspace / Gemini integration — Aransas is getting smart email suggestions, natural-language search across past conversations, and contact introductions that pull in context automatically. Useful enough to feel slightly unsettling. Three questions for measuring dumb experiences. For solutions with no intelligence layer, Dave offers a simple diagnostic: Did I accomplish what I set out to do? How engaged was I with the experience? Did this feel like time well saved, time well spent, or time well invested? Three questions that get you where you need to go without over-engineering the measurement. That's a Wrap on the Series This is the final episode of the four-part Human Context mini-series.

In this episode, host Don joins aesthetic medicine practitioner and educator Tracy Mancuso to tackle one of the industry's most expensive problems: buying technology because it looks innovative rather than because it belongs in your practice. Drawing on more than 30 years across clinical care and manufacturing, Tracy explains how owners can separate genuine advancement from expensive hype. Tracy breaks down how to evaluate peer-reviewed evidence, validate patient demand before purchasing, test whether staff truly understand the science behind a device, and independently verify manufacturer claims. She also shares a practical patient-survey approach that can reveal demand while simultaneously creating a soft launch list for a new treatment. Her framework is simple: start with the patient problem, not the machine, and never make a major technology decision in isolation. Build a trusted professional network, choose your own references, keep training beyond the manufacturer's basics, and make every investment earn its place inside the practice.
**NAD continues to be one of the top-selling supplements across the board, and many pharmacies are offering NAD injections through 503B partners like Olympia (a great partner that offers my members exclusive discounts). But since there isn't just one standardized protocol, dosing NAD can get confusing fast for both providers and pharmacists. I walk through the different administration routes (sub-Q, IM, and IV), typical dosing ranges, and how to think about tracking NAD by total weekly dose rather than just a single injection amount. I also share my personal comfort level when it comes to injection volume, and how to have those conversations with providers and patients when a requested dose might not be the most comfortable fit. Whether you're getting NAD dosing questions from providers or just want a clearer framework for your pharmacy, this one's for you..** **Show Notes:** 1. **Introduction** [0:00] 2. **NAD Dosing and Dosage Forms Overview** [4:18] 3. **Standardized NAD Injection Formats** [2:07] 4. ** Challenges with High-Dose NAD Injections** [3:15] 5. **Tracking NAD Doses and Patient Comfort** [4:19] 6. **IV Infusions and Flexible NAD Scheduling** [4:50] 7. ** Final Thoughts and Member Resources** [6:40] ----- #### **Becoming a Badass Pharmacy Owner Podcast is a Proud to be a part of the Pharmacy Podcast Network**

What if the reason you are still exhausted - even though you clean up your diet, you exercise, you sleep seven or eight hours - is not a willpower problem but a biology problem? And what if the labs that told you everything is fine were actually comparing you to the average of an unhealthy population? Jessica Van Antoine was working 90-hour weeks inside a wellness company, masking everything with caffeine, until one day in the middle of a meeting she had to excuse herself, go to her office, and curl up under her desk and cry. Functional lab testing changed everything. And now she helps high-achieving female founders do the same.SUMMARY & GUEST INTROY'all know Erica is the woman who does all the things. The diet. The sleep. The Peloton. The red light therapy mat. The crystals on the floor. And is still dragging herself through the afternoon. If that sounds like you, Jessica Van Antoine is here to tell you it is not because you are not trying hard enough. It is because you have been guessing instead of testing. Jessica is the founder of Phoenix Functional Health, a performance health practice built specifically for high-achieving female founders. She has spent nearly two decades in health and wellness - as a massage therapist, Shiatsu practitioner, yoga and Qigong instructor - and now applies functional diagnostic nutrition to help women understand the root cause of what their body is actually doing and why. The conversation covers hormones, fatigue, the D.R.E.S.S. framework, why your doctor keeps telling you everything looks fine, and the one thing she wants every exhausted woman to do this week.INSIDE THE EPISODESomething Just Snapped. Jessica was working 90-hour weeks at a wellness company - studying Chinese medicine, building a 500-hour Shiatsu certification program, and doing it all simultaneously. In a meeting, she felt like glass was cracking inside her body. She excused herself, went to her office, and cried on the floor under her desk. Functional lab testing revealed the biological imbalances predisposing her to overwhelm, fragility, and irritability. And once she resourced her body, everything felt different - not because her workload changed, but because she felt bigger than her responsibilities.Why Your Doctor Keeps Saying You're Fine. The normal ranges your traditional doctor uses are taken from the average of everyone who has ever taken that test - including a very unhealthy general population. Functional health uses a much narrower range of what actually constitutes optimal function. If you are not a significant outlier in one direction, you get told you are fine. Even if you are operating at 70% capacity instead of 95%.Your Hormones Are Downstream of Something Else. Most people treat hormone imbalance as the root cause. Jessica treats it as the signal. What is actually causing the hormonal imbalance? Is it blood sugar? Gut inflammation? Adrenal exhaustion? The systems of the body don't operate in silos - and treating only the symptom without finding the source is exactly why so many approaches don't stick.The D.R.E.S.S. Framework and Why Timing Matters. Diet, rest, exercise, stress reduction, supplementation - but personalized to what your labs actually show. One client was doing hour-long Peloton rides at 5pm and couldn't sleep. Moving the workout to the morning so her cortisol had time to come down was the only change. Now she sleeps. Jessica breaks down why this approach is completely different from generic wellness advice.You're the Asset. The reason the grinding is working against you is that you are the main asset through which everything else runs. When you show up at your kid's soccer game physically present but mentally depleted - avoiding small talk because the idea is exhausting - everyone in your life gets less of you. Including yourself. Jessica's reframe: investing in yourself is not self-care. It is protecting the asset.Stop Stacking Wellness Habits. High-achieving women do what they know to do when they have a problem. They buy the machine, the crystal, the supplement, the app. Without knowing what your body actually needs, you are just guessing and stacking habits that may not be moving the needle. The Founder Capacity Audit is how you find out what your body is actually asking for.RESOURCES & LINKSPhoenix Functional Health: https://phoenixfunctionalhealth.com/Book a Founder Capacity Audit: https://phoenixfunctionalhealth.com/contact/Jessica Van Antoine on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/jessica-van-antoine-fdnp/ ERICA'S RESOURCES & LINKSStart small with me inside HER Jumpstart:https://her-collective.mn.co/plans/1985289?bundle_token=60b2c61d62213cdbd16d437cdc0e4204&utm_source=manual
People often say to me, “I get why executive functioning is important, but when are you going to tell me how to work on it”?I wish I could jump right to the lesson plans and “here's what you do in a perfect hierarchy to work on these skills”. But brains don't work that way.That's why I start with the framework before the lesson plan. The macro before the micro. When you Google executive functioning, you often get a list of 8 or 9 skills, and a broad definition. This is important information, but it doesn't tell you “the how”. It also doesn't explain how you'd scaffold. That's why when I help clinicians design executive functioning interventions, I start with five broad areas that start to make those abstract cognitive skills more tangible. In episode 268 of De Facto Leaders, I explain what those five skill areas are. I also explain why we can't teach them in isolation, and why they have to be embedded into tasks students are already doing in their daily lives in order for intervention to be meaningful.In this episode, I mention the Task Execution and Planning Protocol, which gives school clinicians an intervention strategy that takes students from “demand avoidance” and prompt dependence to independence during daily academic and functional tasks. You can learn more about the Task Execution and Planning Protocol here: https://drkarendudekbrannan.com/taskexecutionIn this episode, I mentioned School of Clinical Leadership, my program that helps related service providers design scalable executive functioning interventions to ensure students get the scaffolding they need across the school day.

In fact, a UC Berkeley study of Title I schools found that those partnering with Playworks had significantly lower chronic absenteeism rates. Further, Mathematica research demonstrated that Playworks schools spent 27% less time transitioning from recess back to learning, saving teachers valuable instructional time.

I once heard from a woman who had been studying herbs for two years and had gathered an entire cabinet full of them. But when her mom caught a cold, she stood in her kitchen with the kettle on and couldn't bring herself to make her a cup of tea.She was afraid she might get it wrong.If you've ever felt that way, I want you to know that your caution isn't a problem. In fact, I think it's the exact instinct a good herbalist is built on.In this episode, I'm sharing a simple way to approach herbal safety so that fear doesn't have to keep you from actually working with the plants you've been learning about.► Why being cautious about herbs doesn't mean you're behind or aren't ready► Why many familiar herbs, including ginger, peppermint, rosemary, and turmeric, may already be part of your everyday life► When an herb, medication, pregnancy, health condition, or individual circumstance means it's time to slow down and look more closely► How to recognize when you can move forward, when you should proceed with caution, and when it's best to step back and seek other help► The simple green, yellow, and red “stoplight” framework I created to make herbal safety easier to understand and rememberAfter more than twenty years of teaching about herbs, one thing I've learned is that complicated information becomes much more useful when you can turn it into a framework that sticks.That's why I created this herbal safety stoplight.
If I asked you what your framework is and your honest answer is "I don't really have one, I just kind of know what to do," that sentence already proves you have one. One hundred per cent of the coaches who come into my Framework Builder Lab convinced they have no process leave with a framework. Often we find it inside the first twenty minutes. In this episode, I'm walking you through why your signature framework stays buried, what it costs you when nobody can see it, and what changes the moment you name it. Plus two client stories, including the coach who posted one framework visual in a Facebook group and had three sales calls booked that week. In this episode: Why coaches are needed more in an information surplus than an information shortage The repeatable pattern already showing up in your sessions Insider blindness, and why the work feels obvious to you Buried framework vs named framework, side by side The "it'll make me cookie-cutter" objection and where it usually comes from Why your lived experience is the thing nobody can copy How a framework visual converts on sales calls and in social posts Join me live: The Coach's Signature Framework Live Series runs October 6, 7, and 8 at 10 am Arizona time.

Join us at our Celebration honoring Jim and Lynne Jackson on Thursday, September 24th, 2026. We'd love to have you with us! An occupational therapist and a youth worker walked into a basement with a few ideas about parenting and three kids willing to run the camera. Twenty-four years later, the Connected Families Framework™ has reached homes in 22 countries. In this first episode of a two-part series, Stacy Bellward sits down with co-founders Jim and Lynne Jackson, along with Director of Development Chad Hayenga, to mark a significant season for Connected Families. After more than two years of prayerful succession planning, Jim and Lynne are stepping back from day-to-day responsibilities and moving into the role of founders emeritus. It is a handing off to the next generation, done with care. They speak candidly about what it takes to release something you have poured your life into, share an honest update on Lynne’s health journey, and trace how a message born in a Minnesota basement started translating across cultures no one expected. You'll also hear the essence of the Framework, in their own words. Key Takeaways: Discover why parenting change starts in your heart, not in a new technique. Find relief if you’re tired of parenting advice that only adds to your to-do list. Learn the one simple idea to hold onto when you can’t remember the whole Framework. Take hope that God can use ordinary, unqualified people right where you are.
