In this episode of the Peaceful Parenting Podcast, I bring back one of my favourite holiday episodes, which is an interview with my kids, where we talk about ‘people, not stuff'.Every year around the holidays, I hear from parents who are worried their kids are too focused on presents, too greedy, or too materialistic — and they're afraid they're getting something wrong. I made this episode to offer a long-term perspective. I interviewed my own kids (then 14, 17, and 20) about what holidays and gifts felt like when they were little — and what actually mattered as they got older. Us last year at Christmas- on one of the Christmas Day walks we discussed on the podcast:In the episode, we talk about why “wanting stuff” is normal in childhood, how values really develop over time, and why parents can relax a lot more than they think.

Specialiștii în fiscalitate au așteptat cu nerăbdare să vadă rezultatele pentru România ale raportului Comisiei Europene referitor la gap-ul de TVA, capitol la care România este de mulți ani pe primul loc în Uniunea Europeană sperând într-o îmbunătățire a procentajului. Gap-ul de TVA, se știe deja, reprezintă diferența dintre cât ar trebui să încaseze bugetul de stat din TVA și cât încasează efectiv. Rezultatul studiului european este dezamăgitor pentru România care nu doar că rămâne pe primul loc, ci chiar înregistrează o creștere în anul 2023 față de 2022, de la 26,7% la 30%. Nivelul redus din anul 2022 este, însă, pus pe seama schimbării metodologiei de calcul. În termeni nominali, neîncasarea TVA înseamnă aproximativ nouă miliarde de euro, care, însă, să fim realiști, sunt doar teoretici. Degeaba se fac calcule referitoare la cât de multe ar putea realiza România cu nouă miliarde de euro, pentru că realitatea ne arată că suma nu este decât o simplă variantă ipotetică. Tema gap-ului de TVA se inflamează periodic, atunci când experți sau oameni politici încearcă să explice de unde vine diferența de încasare la buget. Au fost opinii care au susținut că este vorba despre cote prea mici de TVA (fapt puțin probabil), o altă cauză este evaziunea fiscală și, în fine, recent șeful fiscului a adus în discuție autoconsumul sau mai exact metodologia de calcul a TVA potențial de încasat. Raportul Comisiei Europene trece în revistă factorii care influențează nivelul de încasare a TVA. Creșterea PIB induce o creștere a gradului de conformare, dar în anii 2022-2023 s-a înregistrat o decelerare a economiei europene ceea ce ar fi putut duce la un efect invers, de creștere a gap-ului de TVA. Scăderea consumului de alimente și băuturi nealcoolice poate arăta o orientare spre o piață nefiscalizată și deci o creștere a gradului de neîncasare. Totodată, este importantă ponderea serviciilor în PIB și în special a serviciilor susceptibile de neconformitate. De exemplu, o activitate turistică în creștere poate ridica riscul de neconformitate. De asemenea, creșterea numărului de falimente duce la riscul de neplată a TVA. În fine, creșterea nivelului de plăți digitale reduce riscul de neconformitate. După cum se poate vedea, sunt factori care acționează diferit de la stat la stat și care sunt activi și în economia locală. La nivel european, Malta (24%) și Polonia (16%) sunt, după România, statele cu cele mai mari rate ale gap-ului de TVA. Cele mai performante sunt Austria (1%), Finlanda (3%) și Cipru (3,3%). Interesant este că studiul Comisiei Europene include și statele candidate, iar în aceste cazuri cifrele sunt mici, cu excepția Albaniei care are un gap de 24,6%. O veste rea nu vine niciodată singură și un alt raport european, referitor la impozitul pe profit, plasează România pe același loc 1 de la gap-ul de TVA și la neîncasarea impozitului pe profit. În 2019, anul analizat în raport, România a încasat cu 35% mai puțin decât suma care trebuia să ajungă la buget. Raportul menționează că în cazul României diferența neîncasată la buget este din cauza evaziunii fiscale, în schimb pentru alte state cauza principală este optimizarea fiscală făcută de companii. Datele europene ne arată că este ceva în neregulă cu economia românească și cu sistemul de administrare fiscală. Adevărul însă este clar ca lumina zilei: cele nouă miliarde de euro, lipsă la buget din TVA, rămân în economia reală la marii evazioniști și la micii oportuniști. De acești bani beneficiază companii fantomă, care apar și dispar peste noapte, IMM-uri, mici meseriași, persoane fizice autorizate sau neautorizate. Acesta este modul în care funcționează economia românească și care lasă în buzunarele companiilor sau ale cetățenilor nouă miliarde de euro. De aceea, nimeni nu vrea de fapt să schimbe sistemul și să reducă gap-ul de TVA.

In this powerful conversation, I'm joined by international mindset and business coach Shelley Bosworth to unpack the real work behind building a courageous mindset. We dive into the practical side of mindset growth — what it looks like day-to-day for ambitious clinicians in business, and how confidence isn't the prerequisite for action — it's the result of it.Shelley shares her leap-from-corporate story, the link between mindset and burnout, why fear of success is more common than you think, and how to stop comparing yourself to others. If you've ever said “I just need more confidence,” this episode will help you reframe that thinking and offer a clear path forward.

Part 4 of Jen Suzuki's 4-part mini-series gives managers a simple, repeatable structure for teaching one of the most stressful skills in sales: handling customer objections. In this episode, Jen breaks down how to coach your team through pushback without pressure — using a calm, confident, 4-step framework: Acknowledge → Reframe → Offer → Close the Gap. You'll learn exactly how to teach the structure in minutes, demonstrate both strong and weak examples, and set up fast role-plays that build confidence instead of anxiety. Jen also shares practical ways to evaluate tone, body language, pacing, and delivery using quick checklists and 10-minute coaching drills. Plus, she reveals her favorite contest ideas to keep the skill top-of-mind and drive real behavior change. This power session helps salespeople, BDC agents, service advisors, and anyone facing customer objections turn stressful moments into calm, controlled wins. Dealer Talk with Jen Suzuki Podcast |

Silence never felt so loud. In Pluribus Episode 7 (“The Gap”), the show dials down the dialogue and cranks up the emotion. With Carol wandering alone through New Mexico and Manousos crossing continents to find her, Pluribus delivers its most poetic, gut-punching hour yet — and Rhea Seehorn and Carlos-Manuel Vesga are jaw-droppingly good.Time Stamps:Pluribus Recap Started at (8:50)Brandon and Chanel Talk about what they Watched This week (52:00)Brandon & Chanel break down this word-light, emotion-heavy installment:Carol sings her way through grief: from R.E.M. to “Hot in Herre” to Sousa's greatest hitsManousos practices English across the Darién Gap — “I am not one of them.

And Brandon & Chanel are here to unpack every lingering glance, aching lyric, and wilderness scream.

Manousos is the only person who seems to surpass Carol's level of stubbornness. A.Ron can't help but notice the parallels between Manousos and Christ-like imagery.

Did Manousos just walk into the trap of a lifetime? Welcome back to the deepest dive into the shadowy world of *Pluribus*! Episode 7, titled "The Gap," delivers seismic shifts that threaten to unravel everything we thought we knew about the core relationships in this terrifying dystopia. The episode's title is truly apt, highlighting the growing chasm between perception and reality, and the emotional distance characters are desperately trying to bridge, or exploit. The central, most heart-stopping plotline revolves around Manousos, who initiates a truly dangerous and arguably crazy trek to meet Carol. We dissect why this decision feels like a literal death sentence. But the biggest revelation lies with the enigmatic Carol. For the first time, we see the cracks form in her impenetrable facade. The dangerous truth about Carol isn't just her manipulative nature; it's the raw, undeniable realization of her own profound loneliness and sadness.Don't miss our full character breakdown and deep dive into the underlying themes of trust and betrayal.

On this episode of Mind the Gap, Tom Sherrington and Emma Turner are joined by Jude Arkwright, headteacher of St Michael's CE, Aldbourne, to explore how a strong culture of professional trust, research-informed practice, and professional development can transform teaching and learning. Jude shares how long-term staff stability and coaching triplets have created a school where teachers openly examine the smallest instructional details in real time, and where feedback is immediate, supportive and precise. The conversation then turns to St Michael's much-admired approach to continuous provision through to the end of Year 2, unpacking what high-quality, well-planned play looks like in practice, how it builds knowledge and self-regulation, and why it is anything but low-rigour. Packed with concrete examples - from tutor tables and small-group teaching to deliberately designed environments and routines - this episode offers a compelling picture of how alignment between curriculum, pedagogy and culture can create calm, purposeful classrooms where children and adults thrive.Jude Arkwright is Headteacher of St Michael's CE Aldbourne. She leads the school's successful Year One and Year Two continuous provision. Here is the way it is described: Research and our school experience tells us that young children learn best through play and exploration, this is why we have built on the excellent practice found in Reception. We have found our approach gives the children time to think and explore, in a culture, which supports both the adults and the children. We have seen close relationships build, a strong sense of well-being as well as greater levels of enthusiasm for learning by adults and children alike. The curriculum is exciting, creative and dynamic enabling skills and knowledge to be applied so that children can purposefully build on what has already been learnt as well as identifying what the children need to learn next to ensure they are all successful learners.

When you Bridge the Gap, you step into the space between who you were and who you are called to be. In the Trap, we learn that wealth is not just about the numbers on a chart. It is about the mindset, the discipline, and the spiritual conviction that you deserve more than survival mode. GOD did not design you to stay stuck on the sidewalk of your story. He built you to cross over, to elevate, to move from confusion to clarity, from fear to faith, from consumer to owner. In the market, just like in life, your breakthrough comes when you stop reacting and start owning. Every share you buy is a declaration that you refuse to be trapped by circumstance. Every investment is a seed you plant in the soil of your future self. Bridge the gap by aligning your spirit, your strategy, and your sacrifices. And once you cross, do not just level up. Bring your people with you. That is how we build wealth. That is how we build legacy. That is how we Trap differently.Closing the GAP | Wallstreet Trapper (Episode 171) Trappin TuesdaysJoin our Exclusive Patreon!!!

In January, Kecia Steelman became one of the most powerful executives in beauty.  After more than a decade at Ulta Beauty in positions like COO and head of international, she stepped into the president and CEO role with an uphill battle ahead of her.  That's because sales at Ulta tumbled during the 2020 pandemic, and despite an uptick in 2021, year-over-year sales had been steadily falling for nearly three years. She took over as CEO in January, and by March, she unveiled her Ulta Beauty Unleashed comeback plan — and in just 11 months, her strategy has paid off.  As part of her vision, Steelman expanded Ulta's e-commerce and product assortment with a new online marketplace, led the acquisition of U.K. specialty beauty retailer SpaceNK, expanded internationally into Mexico and the Middle East, and shepherded a shop-in-shop breakup with Target, all while dramatically improving revenue. Sales at Ulta Beauty have been on a continuous upward swing since Steelman took over as CEO in January. In May, the retailer reported 4.5% net sales growth. This doubled to a 9.3% net sales spike, reported in August, and the company nearly tripled that growth in last month's earnings report.  Host Lexy Lebsack sat down with Steelman to unpack her first year in charge and look ahead to 2026 (16:50). But today's episode also celebrates Glossy 50, our annual award list honoring business leaders, changemakers and insiders behind the beauty, wellness and fashion industries. Steelman's interview is a special Glossy50 preview with the full list publishing next week.  But first, Lebsack is joined by co-host Emily Jensen to break down the news of the week. This includes the novel launch of a new "bedtime fragrance" from the U.K. sleep-solution company This Works. The brand is known for its pillow spray and body oil, which include ingredients such as lavender and magnesium, but this week it expanded into fine fragrance designed to be applied before bed to improve sleep. Lebsack and Jensen also discuss the newest spokesperson for Estée Lauder-owned M.A.C. Cosmetics, pop star Chappell Roan, and the mixed response from her fans online. In addition, they analyze an unexpected collaboration between The Gap and beauty brand Summer Fridays, which includes clothing but not beauty.

3 big ideas discussed in this episode: BIG IDEA #1: There is a GAP in the Systems: Most advice after divorce assumes both parents want peace, but with a toxic or high-conflict ex, there is One parent thrives on Chaos. This gap in the system leaves kids vulnerable to invisible emotional harm unless the healthy parent learns how to shield them. Leading to bleak future outcomes. BIG IDEA #2: The Good News: Resilience isn't luck, it's built. Research shows kids can thrive when the 8 Pillars of Resilience are reinforced, even when a high-conflict parent creates weak spots. It has been shown that One stable, caring adult who knows how to strengthen those pillars can change a child's future for the better. BIG IDEA #3: The How: By combining resilience research with my expertise in child development, behaviour, and the effects of separation and divorce, I provide parents with concrete, practical strategies to counteract the invisible emotional harm toxic co-parents cause. Because almost no real help exists in this area, these tools give parents a way to cut through the chaos and give their kids clarity, stability, and hope.

This week Leland and Joe discuss Gap's playoff run coming to an end. CFB, JMU is in. All this and more on this week's episode.

In this month's Living in Sync girl chat, I'm sharing what's been on my heart as we wrap up the year — from staying consistent with my goals to not getting caught in the holiday comparison trap. This episode was sparked by a sweet compliment someone gave me about my consistency, which led me to reflect on why I've been able to stay on track (even when life feels full and unpredictable). I'm talking through the systems and mindset shifts that help me keep showing up — and how you can make them work for your season too. Inside this episode: My honest December reflections and how I'm checking in with myself Thoughts on social media, comparison, and how I'm staying grounded A peek at my Spotify Wrapped + the music that's been on repeat How I set intentional, realistic goals — and why writing things down matters Why I do quarterly reflections (and how it keeps me from drifting) A little celebration of this month's “praise reports” — big and small wins Final encouragement to stay focused on your own pace, your own growth, and your own story This one's part personal catch-up, part pep talk, part planning session — grab your coffee and come hang out with me.

Ending another year setting goals and working really hard.. but still feeling behind?You don't need more motivation. You need a Growth Map.In Day 1 of the CEOs Don't Wait Till Jan 1st Masterclass, we break down how real CEOs evaluate the past year so they actually grow from it — instead of repeating it.Download the CEOs Don't Wait till Jan 1st Playbook here: https://redeemhertime.com/january-playbookYou'll learn:Why being busy is not the same as being productiveThe difference between measuring the GAP vs the GAINHow to evaluate your goals without shame or self-doubtThe 3 main reasons most women don't hit their goalsWhat Lamentations 3:40 teaches us about CEO-level reflectionBecause real growth doesn't come from hustle — it comes from honest evaluation + God-led realignment. CEO action steps: – Write 3 words to describe the CEO you were in the past year – Discern the goals you set vs. the goals you actually reached – Identify 1 area where God is inviting you to realign moving forwardAnd if you want a simple system + support to set clear goals, build a realistic plan, and actually follow through — join me inside CEO Focus, where I'll help you install the Growth Mapping Method so you can see measurable results every 12 weeks.

For artists, dreamers, and thinkers who feel creatively blocked or restless — this sleep hypnosis is your invitation to return to stillness. Listen before bed or during quiet reflection to release overthinking and rediscover the effortless current of inspiration.Inspired by Rick Rubin's The Creative Act: A Way of Being, and infused with Dr. Wayne Dyer's “Gap” meditation technique, this session merges deep hypnotic relaxation with meditative awareness. The voice and music together guide you into the stillness between thoughts... where inspiration, peace, and creative renewal are born.The tone is poetic, reflective, and immersive... a journey that feels like floating through light. Gentle harmonies, layered breath rhythms, and subtle binaural depth help the mind unwind and the body surrender completely.You will awaken lighter, clearer, and more connected to the quiet source of creativity within. Flow, presence, surrender, receptivity, and play — the five creative currents — continue to move through you long after sleep, bringing clarity and renewal to every day.

What if the birth trauma you've been carrying isn't just from this lifetime? This is the first time I'm publicly sharing my birth story. After holding onto the emotions from my birth with Rui for 3.5 years,what was meant to be a planned home birth that turned into an emergency category 1 caesarean (a situation that was life threatening to both Rui and myself), the universe kept putting Shari Lyon in my path... and when I finally surrendered to doing the work with her, what we uncovered changed everything. I've never been able to openly talk about that day without crying and truthfully, I've been terrified of having a second baby. The shame, guilt, sadness, fear and grief has consumed me. But in this deeply vulnerable and transformative episode, I sit down with Shari Lyon... a leading coach, educator, and advocate for women through conception, pregnancy, birth, and postpartum. Through Timeline Therapy and the Emotional Change Technique (ECT), Shari helped me heal at the deepest root cause level... and thanks to her work, the anxiety surrounding birth has not only been released but deeply healed, and I can now see the total perfection in the turn of events that took place. In this episode, we dive into: → Why even the most prepared women can experience birth trauma → The gap in traditional Hypnobirthing education → How Timeline Therapy works to heal emotional root causes → My experience being taken back to a past life during one of our sessions → Why your baby might be guiding you to do this healing work → How generational patterns can be passed down to our children in the womb → How to become the circuit breaker for ancestral trauma → The emotional "strings" we carry throughout our lifetime → Why healing before conception creates a clearer channel for your spirit baby About Shari Lyon: Shari Lyon is a leading coach, educator, and advocate for women through conception, pregnancy, birth, and postpartum. With over 13 years of experience supporting families, she brings a unique fusion of evidence-based childbirth education, therapeutic hypnosis, and trauma-informed coaching to every woman she serves. Shari is the founder of Belly2Birth, a highly reputable Hypnobirthing and childbirth education program in Australia, and is also a co-founder of Fertile Birth & Beyond, a transformative multi-modality practitioner training company that is redefining how women are supported across their perinatal journey. Deeply passionate about healing and transforming birth trauma, Shari's mission is to ensure every woman feels informed, safe, connected, and powerful in her choices — no matter how her path unfolds. She believes birth is both a rite of passage and a profound opportunity for personal and generational healing, and she is dedicated to guiding women back to their voice, their intuition, and their innate capability to birth and mother with confidence.

Mike Palmer returns to the Thanksgiving table to serve up a side of applied neuroscience. Powered by the recently released Gemini 3, he examines the "gratitude cocktail," a potent neurochemical mix of dopamine, serotonin, and oxytocin that mimics the effects of antidepressants and strengthens social bonds. Beyond the chemistry, Mike explores the psychological framework of The Gap and the Gain by Dan Sullivan and Dr. Benjamin Hardy. He explains how measuring progress against an ideal future creates unhappiness, while measuring against the past generates resilience and satisfaction. The conversation shifts from theory to practice, detailing why gratitude stories are more effective than rote lists and how specific "Notice, Think, Feel, Do" protocols rewire the brain. Mike also debunks the tryptophan myth, explaining how carbohydrates and compelling narratives—like football—actually drive the post-meal nap. Finally, he reflects on the origins of Trending in Education, shares updates on the new Trending in Higher Ed feed, and previews upcoming live events from SXSW EDU to Alexandria, Virginia. Key Takeaways The Gratitude Cocktail: Gratitude activates the brain's reward centers. Dopamine drives motivation, serotonin stabilizes mood similar to SSRIs, and oxytocin fosters trust and bonding. Mindset Shift: "Gap thinking" focuses on the distance between your actual self and an unreachable ideal, leading to burnout. "Gain thinking" measures your actual self against your past self, highlighting progress and abundance. Stories Over Lists: Rote gratitude lists often lead to mechanical habituation. Constructing gratitude narratives creates stronger neural pathways and emotional connections. The Science of the Nap: It isn't just the turkey. Tryptophan is a precursor to serotonin and melatonin, but the heavy carbohydrate load and the relief of social bonding are the real drivers of sleepiness. Podcast Expansion: Trending in Education is expanding its network with a dedicated Trending in Higher Ed feed to allow listeners to dive deeper into specific verticals. Why You Should Listen This episode moves beyond the platitudes of "giving thanks" to reveal the biological mechanisms that make gratitude a high-performance tool. If you find yourself doomscrolling or fixating on what you haven't achieved, the "Gap and The Gain" framework offers a practical method to reset your cognitive baseline. Mike connects these mental models to tangible brain health, offering a compelling argument for why gratitude is essential fuel for resilience and innovation.
