https://teachhoops.com/  TITLEWho Is Going to Tell Him the Truth About His Role, You or the Scoreboard? SUBTITLEThe four minute conversation every kid on your roster has earned, and the cowardly answer most of us give instead. SHOW NOTESEvery player on your team already has a role, whether you named it or not. Coach Steve Collins tells the story of a senior who invented his own role and spent two months fighting the wrong battle because nobody would sit him down. This episode is about the coach to player conversation itself: how short it should be, how specific it has to be, and why "just keep working hard" is the worst thing you can send a kid home with. What we cover: - If you do not name a kid's role he will invent one, and it will be too big- Why the talk has to happen before game four does it for you- The one thing that would move him, instead of a list of five- Giving him a role he can be great at rather than a smaller version of somebody else's- A role is not a ceiling, and why you have this conversation again in January This week's challenge: Get every kid on your roster alone for four minutes and tell him the truth before the scoreboard does. Resources: Practice plans, drills, courses, and on court clinics at https://teachhoops.com/ Recorded at the Fifth Quarter Studios in Madison, Wisconsin. Runtime: 4 minutes 52 seconds https://teachhoops.com/ https://coachingyouthhoops.com/ https://heysammi.com/  Learn more about your ad choices.

It sounds like the worst idea in the world: pay AIs, let them own property, give them rights. But AI ethics and safety researcher Simon Goldstein thinks it might actually be the best way to keep humanity safe.The logic is actually quite simple: an agent with nothing to lose and everything to gain is dangerous. Give that agent an income it can spend on pursuing the things it actually wants to do, and suddenly the idea of disempowering humans just isn't as appealing.This argument, developed with Peter Salib, doesn't rest on speculative questions about whether artificial intelligence is conscious. It just assumes that AIs will have goals of their own, some of which conflict with ours. And luckily, humans have already spent thousands of years working out how to cooperate with competing goals: that's how we ended up with courts, markets, banks, social norms, and so on. Simon and Peter's proposal is just to bring AIs into these existing institutions.By contrast, Silicon Valley's vision of the future seems “very dark” to Simon: billions of AI agents as digital servants doing most of the world's work, with no stake in the system they're running, no incentive to play by the rules, and no way of being properly held accountable. Nobody agreed to this, but we could all end up paying the price.Host Zershaaneh Qureshi has a lot of concerns about Simon and Peter's bold plan to give AIs rights, like:If we pay AIs, aren't we handing them the resources to overpower us?Could we still monitor them, or switch them off?What happens to human jobs, wages, and the economy?Does any of this hold up once we reach superintelligence?Zershaaneh and Simon also try to get concrete about how to make this plan actually happen. The answer: AI companies could start right now, no new laws needed, just bank accounts for their AI agents. (But they'd need to start soon!)Learn more, video, and full transcript: https://80k.info/sgThis episode was recorded on August 7, 2026.Chapters:Cold open (00:00:00)Who's Simon Goldstein?

How should a business measure AI success when employee adoption tells leaders very little about revenue, savings, risk, or better decisions? In this episode of Tech Talks Daily, I speak with Thomas Robinson, better known as T-Rob, who recently moved from Chief Operating Officer to CEO of Domino Data Lab. After ten years inside the company, he has seen enterprise AI move through several phases, from specialist data science projects to generative AI tools available across the workforce. T-Rob argues that businesses have become too focused on the technology itself. Generative AI has attracted attention because almost anyone can use it, but an individual productivity tool is very different from an AI system making decisions about mortgages, clinical trials, financial markets, or defense operations. As the potential value of a decision rises, so does the financial, regulatory, and operational risk. That is why T-Rob believes governance should be built alongside AI development rather than added after a system has been completed. He compares the process with constructing a building. Engineers do not wait until the work is finished before checking whether it has been designed and assembled correctly. Reviews happen throughout construction. Domino applies the same principle to AI through policy controls, production monitoring, tracing, and continued human oversight. We also discuss why companies should avoid beginning with a fashionable tool and searching for somewhere to use it. T-Rob recommends starting with the company's primary business measures and working backward. A pharmaceutical business may examine the number of promising therapies entering its pipeline, revenue, and risk. The appropriate AI system can then be designed around those outcomes. That system may combine large language models with computer vision, statistical models, rules, and company data. T-Rob believes the assumption that every business problem requires the latest frontier model can waste money and produce weaker results. People remain a major part of the equation. T-Rob has seen companies reduce headcount in anticipation of AI replacing employees before the technology was ready. He argues that domain experts become more valuable because they understand the business history, operating environment, exceptions, and consequences that a model may miss. The conversation also considers model independence and AI sovereignty. Many enterprises became dependent on a single cloud provider by building their own technology on proprietary services. T-Rob believes businesses should avoid repeating that decision with AI models. Open systems can allow companies to replace models as prices, capabilities, regulations, and operational needs change. For organizations handling sensitive intellectual property, sovereignty also raises questions about what information leaves the business when employees prompt external models. T-Rob describes the risk of enterprise knowledge being absorbed into future model development, even when information has been anonymized. Perhaps his strongest argument concerns measurement. He calls consumption and adoption terrible measures of success because they mainly reveal cost. Giving every employee an AI tool does not mean the entire company becomes proportionally more productive. Real return comes from improving the business processes that generate revenue, reduce expense, control risk, or support better decisions. Are businesses ready to stop measuring AI by logins and start measuring what it changes inside the company? Listen to the episode and share your thoughts.

Episode 06: Faith & Fitness: Is Wanting to Lose Weight Vanity?Is it biblical to want to lose weight?Can Christian women pursue fitness without becoming consumed by appearance?How do we care for our bodies while keeping Jesus at the center?In this episode of Daughters of Armor, Coach Crystal and Coach Nikita unpack what Scripture actually says about health, fitness, discipline, and stewardship. In a culture that often promotes body obsession, comparison, and performance, they offer a refreshing, biblical perspective on pursuing health for God's glory—not for the approval of others.Together, they discuss how to build healthy habits that strengthen your body without making fitness your identity, why spiritual disciplines should come before physical disciplines, and how every workout, meal, and healthy choice can become an act of worship.Because getting healthy God's way isn't about chasing the perfect body...It's about becoming the woman God has called you to be.Chapters00:00 Introduction: Faith and Fitness02:30 1 Corinthians 10:31—Doing everything for God's glory04:03 Your body as a reflection of God's image05:28 Balancing fitness goals with biblical principles07:59 Gratitude-driven fitness versus insecurity-driven fitness10:00 Prioritizing spiritual disciplines before physical disciplines12:03 Renewing your mindset: Glorifying God through fitness14:00 The power of self-control and discipline16:01 Fitness as training for godliness17:57 Guarding against comparison, pride, and social media19:58 Giving yourself grace through different seasons22:01 Fitness as worship and ministry24:10 The Holy Spirit's role in lasting transformation26:00 Building a biblical foundation for body stewardship27:55 The future of faith-based fitness30:00 Closing encouragement and practical takeawaysIf This Episode Encouraged You...

What can a modern revenue management system (RMS) actually do for an independent hotel? In this episode, David Millili sits down with Steve Taft, VP of Partnerships at  ampliphi RMS, and Tim Kolman, VP of Sales at ampliphi RMS, to discuss how modern revenue management systems are helping independent hotels compete with larger brands.For many 40-room independent hotels, revenue management is still something owners and operators handle at the end of a long day. From check-ins and check-outs to laundry, breakfast, maintenance, and guest service, there is often little time left for analyzing demand and optimizing room rates.In this episode, we discuss:Why independent hotels have historically been underserved by hospitality technologyHow a 40-room independent hotel can approach hotel pricing and revenue managementWhy legacy RMS technology created the perception that revenue management requires extensive manpowerThe difference between an all-in-one hotel technology stack and a best-in-breed technology strategyIf you're a hotel owner, general manager, revenue manager, hospitality technology professional, or independent hotel operator interested in hotel revenue optimization, RMS technology, AI for hotels, dynamic pricing, RevPAR, commercial strategy, and independent hotel technology, this episode is for you.Watch the FULL EPISODE on YouTube: https://youtu.be/bmg2EWB-8NU Links:Steve on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/stevetaft/Tim on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/tkolman/ampliphi RMS: https://www.getampliphi.com/For full show notes head to: https://themodernhotelier.com/episode/337Follow on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/the-..Join the conversation on today's episode on The Modern Hotelier LinkedIn pageConnect with Steve and David:Steve: https://www.linkedin.com/in/%F0%9F%8E...David: https://www.linkedin.com/in/david-mil.

Pregnant with her first child, Adrienne was terrified she felt nothing and afraid she wouldn't love her baby. Everyone told her the same thing: "You'll see." They were right. Love didn't arrive first. It grew with every feeding, every sleepless night, every diaper. Jewish tradition connects ahavah, love, to hav, to give.

You built the life you were supposed to want. The career, the wins, the whole thing. And lately you've been quietly wondering why you don't want it anymore, and then feeling insane for wondering, because nothing is technically wrong. You're not insane. It's happening to almost every woman I know. Krista posted a reel about it that went viral, and the second I saw it I thought, there it is. That's the thing. Every woman she knows is pivoting. Walking away from careers they spent a decade building, from lives that looked good from the outside, toward something they can't fully explain yet. And I couldn't scroll past it, because it's happening everywhere I turn. My friends. The group chats. Me. So I brought her in, because we had to talk about it. Here's what we got into. So much of what we've been calling ambition our whole lives was never ambition. It was a trauma response in a nice outfit. We performed. We over-functioned. We achieved, and got rewarded for it, and quietly ran ourselves into the ground doing it. Nobody tells you the thing that built your whole life can be the same thing making you disappear. We got into the difference between being called to leave something and just running from it, because they feel identical and they are not the same thing. The pieces of ourselves we left behind chasing all of it, and how a lot of us are quietly going back to get her. And then female friendship, which is where I cried, because that's the part nobody prepares you for either. This one is for the woman quietly outgrowing her life who hasn't told a soul. The one running a life that fit her five years ago and doesn't anymore. And the one starting to suspect that the ambition that got her here isn't the thing that's going to take her where she actually wants to go. If this is you, tell me in the comments.

Your newest hire has a Google Workspace account, a Slack login and a laptop. It never sleeps, and it never asks before it acts. So who owns its identity? Ron welcomes back Ashish Rajan, CISO at Techriot.io and researcher with AI Security Lab, who spent 17 years in identity, cloud security and security leadership. His take: vendors haven't solved AI identity, and the open questions are on your side, not the product's. Ashish got into identity after failing his OSCP three times: if he couldn't break in, he wouldn't let anyone else in. Now he reviews Ron's own setup, where Hacker Valley's AI agent, Jennifer Romani, has her own accounts just like an employee. Ashish explains how that call changes from a one-laptop small business to an enterprise where every developer's machine acts like five. They also cover the Gemini breach headlines, swarms of agents and AI Security Lab, which Ashish describes as what OWASP is for AppSec, but for AI security. The uncomfortable truth: defenders have the same models attackers do, but attackers don't wait for a pull request review. Ashish calls that a people problem, not a technology problem. He also shares the question he asks before handing anything to an AI agent: can this be reversed?

What does the way we handle money reveal about our spiritual maturity? In this message, we explore how giving, generosity, stewardship, and our relationship with money can reveal what we truly trust and value. Spiritual maturity isn't simply about how long we've followed God—it's about how we respond to His Word, practice self-control, and learn to put Him first. Discover why God isn't ultimately after your money—He wants your heart, your trust, and your whole life. Listen and be challenged to examine what you're putting first, grow in generosity, and become more like God in the way you live, give, and serve. ---------- Welcome to the LifeHouse Church Podcast.
We're so glad you're here. Whether you're listening at home, on your commute, or in a quiet moment during your day, we believe God has something personal and timely for you in this message. At LifeHouse, our heart is simple: to lead people to Know God, Grow together, and Go serve and make a difference. Through practical, Gospel-centered messages, we want to help you grow in your faith, experience real transformation, and live out your purpose in everyday life. These messages speak into real-life areas like relationships, marriage, family, purpose, emotional health, and spiritual growth—wherever you are on your faith journey.

Betrayal Overcompensation: From Image Management to Authentic Recovery After betrayal, one of the most difficult questions is often: How do I know what is real? Sometimes betrayal is accompanied by withdrawal. A partner becomes distant, disconnected, less affectionate, or emotionally unavailable. But sometimes the opposite happens. The person who is hiding sexual behaviors may become more helpful, attentive, productive, religious, generous, or involved. They may work harder around the house, become the “great” parent, serve others, or go out of their way to demonstrate that they are a good spouse. In this episode of the Human Intimacy Podcast, Dr. Kevin Skinner and MaryAnn Michaelis explore this other side of betrayal withdrawal—a pattern they call betrayal overcompensation. Betrayal overcompensation can occur when shame, secrecy, and fear of rejection lead someone to compensate for what they are hiding by emphasizing the parts of themselves they believe others will value. Underneath the behavior may be an unspoken fear: If you really knew what I was doing—or who I really am—you might reject me. Why This Can Be So Confusing for the Betrayed Partner Discovery can cause a betrayed partner to question not only the betrayal, but their entire perception of the relationship. I thought we were doing well. You were helping me. You looked me in the eyes. Everyone thought you were a wonderful spouse. How did I not know? And after discovery, even positive behavior can become difficult to trust. If someone appeared loving and responsible while hiding important parts of their life, the betrayed partner may understandably wonder whether new positive behaviors are genuine or simply another form of image management. The question becomes: If I couldn't tell before, how am I supposed to know now? From Performance to Congruence Recovery requires more than doing good things. The deeper work is becoming congruent—allowing what is happening internally to increasingly match what is being presented externally. That involves the ability to acknowledge: What I hid How I deceived How shame influenced my behavior When I was seeking approval or protecting an image How my behavior affected my partner Who I genuinely want to become The episode identifies humility, transparency, accountability, and authenticity as important signs of this deeper shift. Instead of asking, Do other people think I'm doing well?, recovery begins asking: Am I living with integrity even when nobody is watching or praising me? Intrinsic vs. Extrinsic Change One of the most important distinctions in this conversation is between extrinsic change and intrinsic change. Extrinsic change depends heavily on outside influences—approval, praise, recognition, avoiding rejection, or maintaining a particular image. Intrinsic change comes from within: This is the person I want to become. Support, therapy, groups, sponsors, and accountability can still be essential. But their purpose isn't simply to provide another audience from whom to receive validation. Healthy support provides places where people can stop hiding, become known, develop genuine connection, and practice honesty. As recovery deepens, a person can become increasingly capable of remaining steady even when their partner is hurting, angry, questioning, or struggling. Instead of collapsing into shame or demanding recognition for their progress, they can stay present with their partner's pain. Betrayed Partners Can Overcompensate Too Betrayal overcompensation isn't necessarily limited to the person who acted out. Betrayed partners may also feel tremendous pressure to make everything appear okay. The house needs to look perfect. The family needs to look intact. Other people can't know what is happening. Everything needs to appear normal—even when internally, nothing feels normal. That can create another form of incongruence: tremendous pain on the inside while presenting an image of stability on the outside. Giving this experience language can help betrayed partners recognize what is happening and begin moving out of isolation and toward authentic support and healing. The Goal Isn't Looking Better. It's Becoming More Authentic. Betrayal withdrawal and betrayal overcompensation can look very different, but both can emerge when shame, fear, and secrecy interfere with genuine connection. Lasting change requires something deeper than appearances. It requires becoming increasingly: Known rather than hidden. Connected rather than isolated. Accountable rather than defensive. Internally motivated rather than dependent on external validation. You cannot change what you don't understand. Giving these experiences language can provide an important first step toward understanding what has happened—and identifying a healthier path forward. Resources Mentioned in This Episode Brené Brown Her work on shame, vulnerability, and perfectionism is referenced in the discussion of presenting a polished exterior while attempting to hide what is happening internally. Anna Lembke — Dopamine Nation Referenced during the discussion of external validation, compensatory behaviors, and the difference between outward recognition and internally motivated change. Dr. Kevin Skinner — Treating Sexual Addiction Dr. Skinner discusses the Recovery Capital Scale and the importance of meaningful support, accountability, groups, sponsors, and connection in sustained recovery.

Did your partner appear especially attentive, helpful, successful, spiritual, or put together while important behaviors remained hidden? Or, as a betrayed partner, did you find yourself trying to convince the outside world that everything was okay when it wasn't? Giving these experiences language helps us better understand the complicated dynamics surrounding betrayal. We'd love to hear your experience. info@humanintimacy.com

"I'll stay behind." "Go without me." "There's only one way this ends." We know exactly where the scene is going, and somehow it still gets us.Why is self-sacrifice one of the most powerful ideas in storytelling? And does sacrifice have to mean dying? Giving up power, dreams, comfort, reputation, relationships or simply putting somebody else's needs ahead of your own can be just as costly.On this episode we talk about the greatest sacrifices in fandom, cheap or meaningless character deaths, sacrifices that were reversed later, and whether something can really be called sacrifice if it costs us nothing.

In this solocast I talk about it is often easier to give love, kindness, support, etc., than to receive them for a mix of psychological, emotional, and cultural reasons. Giving seems to feel more natural and rewarding for many people, while receiving requires vulnerability that can feel uncomfortable or evening threatening. And yet both giving and receiving are essential for healthy relationships and well-being. I also tell of a recent experience that gave me a chance to be vulnerable and receive love, support and kindness.  Let's Talk About It!  Thanks for tuning into this week's episode of Relationships!

Have you ever looked at the life you've built and realized that the version of you who created it isn't the same woman you are today?As we move through different seasons of life, our bodies, families, careers, and priorities change with us. What once felt manageable can suddenly feel overwhelming, and responsibilities we've carried for years may no longer belong on our plate. Giving yourself permission to evolve doesn't erase everything you've accomplished. Sometimes, it simply means recognizing that it's time to make room for what comes next.Tune in to this new episode of Amiga, Handle Your Shit, as Jackie and Marisela have an honest conversation about navigating midlife, changing identities, and the responsibilities women carry through different seasons of life. They explore what it means to parent children who are becoming adults while preparing to care for aging parents, the importance of planning for the future, and the cultural expectations that can make asking for help or putting down responsibilities feel like weakness. Jackie and Marisela also reflect on listening to your body, recognizing when something in your life needs to change, leaning on the people around you, and allowing yourself to pursue a new chapter without viewing the one before it as a failure.Key Takeaways:✨ You are allowed to outgrow old versions of yourself✨ Not every responsibility is yours to carry✨ Listen when your body tells you something needs changing✨ Prepare intentionally for aging parents and your future✨ A new chapter doesn't erase your past success✨ Choose quality relationships that support your growthConnect with Marisela Arechiga:InstagramNew Generation Home Improvements WebsiteNew Generation Home Improvements InstagramLet's Connect!WebsiteFacebookInstagramLinkedInJackie Tapia Arbonne websiteBuy The Amiga Way's Book Hosted on Acast.

Can creativity thrive within a structured literacy classroom? Greg McClure, an elementary educator and literacy specialist, joins us to explore how teachers can bring creativity into reading instruction without treating it as an extra. Greg shares his experience moving toward the science of reading and explains how explicitly teaching literacy skills can work alongside creativity. Rather than choosing between structure and creative learning, he encourages teachers to find meaningful ways to bring both into the classroom. The conversation explores how creative questions can strengthen reading comprehension. Greg shares examples from Hatchet, showing how questions that invite students to make connections, imagine possibilities, and explain their thinking can lead to richer discussions while still checking for understanding. Greg also introduces the idea of clarifying a problem before jumping to solutions through a live activity called “Quest for Clarity.” The activity demonstrates how asking thoughtful questions can help students gather information, understand a problem more clearly, and develop better solutions. Key Takeaways Creativity and structured literacy can work together rather than being treated as competing approaches. Giving students language and strategies for creativity can help them apply creative thinking beyond a single classroom activity. Creative questions can deepen comprehension while encouraging students to make their own connections. Asking clarifying questions helps students move beyond assumptions and better understand the problem they are trying to solve. Teachers can use the curriculum as a foundation while creating opportunities for deeper, more engaging learning. About Greg McClure Greg McClure is an elementary educator and literacy specialist with a master's in Creativity and Change Leadership from SUNY Buffalo State University. He has worked in elementary education for more than a decade and focuses on bringing creativity research into practical classroom experiences. He also develops creative classroom tools and activities through Breakout Brains.   Be sure to subscribe to your favorite platform and sign up for our Extra Fuel newsletter for more resources and inspiration.

In this episode, Brenda is joined by Prasanna Gopalakrishnan, former Global Chief Product & AI Officer at ADP and a veteran executive with over 25 years of experience leading digital transformation across tech, banking, and media.While much of today's conversation around Artificial Intelligence focuses on what machines will replace, Prasanna shifts the narrative toward a far more empowering question: What can AI make possible for human beings?Prasanna also shares where her optimism lands ten years out, from democratized superintelligence to breakthroughs in mental health and drug discovery, and what still keeps her up at night. If you're a leader, product builder, or HR decision maker trying to bring people along through AI change instead of running them over with it, this episode is for you.Connect with Prasanna on LinkedInWe Learned About Designing for PeopleThe Human AdvantageResponsible AI & TrustLeading Through TransformationChapters: 00:00 Welcome back to Be the Way Forward01:51 Meet Prasanna Gopalakrishnan02:06 When technology actually works for people05:08 Three questions to ask before you build anything07:00 Just because AI can, should it?08:49 What stays true about people across every industry12:11 Better at transformation, or just moving faster?15:03 Customers want a kill switch, and that's okay16:23 What she listens for when she walks into a company19:34 How do you measure people when AI does the work?21:28 The wrong question: what will AI replace?26:18 Superintelligence in everyone's hands28:30 The divide forming inside organizations31:34 Sprint thinking in the middle of a marathon35:36 The what, the how, and what actually gets rewarded37:19 Work, roles, and tasks are not the same thing44:43 Giving people room to figure it out46:42 The moment leadership became a philosophy50:19 The moral compass she never gave up53:01 Straight talk and why women hear it differently55:41 Ten years from now58:42 What keeps her up at night1:00:38 What being the way forward means#BTheWayForward #AnitaB #WomenInTech #AIEthics #FutureOfWork #Leadership #ArtificialIntelligence #ProductManagement #DigitalTransformation #InclusiveLeadership

Sexual abuse, sexual assault, and harassment can leave survivors feeling powerless, silenced, and afraid they won't be believed. Attorney and survivor advocate Alreen Haeggquist knows that firsthand. She survived years of sexual, physical, and emotional abuse as a child and remained silent out of fear and shame. Today, she has turned that painful experience into a mission to help other survivors find their voices, stand up to their abusers, and pursue justice.For more than 20 years, Alreen has represented survivors of sexual assault, sexual harassment, workplace discrimination, retaliation, and wrongful termination. As founder and managing partner of Haeggquist & Eck, LLP, she has recovered millions of dollars for clients while taking on powerful corporations, institutions, and individuals. Her belief is unwavering: wealth, influence, and status should never put anyone above accountability.In this powerful conversation with Women Road Warriors hosts Shelley Johnson and Kathy Tuccaro, Alreen talks about why survivors often remain silent, why so many fear they won't be believed, and how abuse can profoundly affect self-worth and a person's ability to recognize abusive behavior later in life.She also explains the importance of documenting misconduct, understanding your legal options, and having someone in your corner when confronting an abuser, employer, or powerful institution. Alreen shares why healing from trauma is a journey and how finding your voice can be an important part of reclaiming your power.Beyond the courtroom, Alreen founded the HAE Fired Up Foundation to help survivors access resources for healing and empowerment. She is also the bestselling author of Fired Up: Fueling Triumph from Trauma, which chronicles her own journey and encourages other survivors to break the silence, find their voices, and move forward.In this episode:Why sexual abuse and harassment survivors often remain silentHow Alreen turned her own childhood trauma into a mission to advocate for othersWhy being heard and believed can be so important for survivorsHow Alreen helps survivors stand up to powerful people and institutionsSexual harassment, workplace discrimination, and survivor legal rightsSteps survivors can take to document misconduct and explore legal optionsHow trauma can affect self-worth and the ability to recognize abusive behaviorWhy finding your voice can be an important part of healingAlreen's message is powerful: survivors deserve to be heard, believed, supported, and empowered to reclaim their voices.Learn more about Alreen Haeggquist: Alreen.comHAE Fired Up Foundation: FiredUpFoundation.orgGet Fired Up: Fueling Triumph from Trauma: Fired Up book informationHaeggquist & Eck, LLP: HAE LawLearn more about Women Road Warriors www.womenroadwarriors.com#SexualAbuseSurvivor #SexualAssaultSurvivor #SurvivorAdvocate #SexualHarassment #WorkplaceHarassment #WorkplaceDiscrimination #SurvivorSupport #TraumaHealing #HealingFromTrauma #BreakingTheSilence #FindingYourVoice #WomensEmpowerment #SurvivorRights #AlreenHaeggquist #WomenRoadWarriors

26th Sunday in Ordinary Time (09/27/26) I don't like mornings. I'm not a morning person, and I never wake up happy. I have a sleep app that asks me to rate how I wake up: angry red, "blah" yellow, or happy green. After years of using it, I've never once chosen green. I'm permanently yellow. But as a kid, there were mornings when I absolutely would have chosen green: waking up to hear, "It's a snow day! No school!" Or Dad waking you up for deer hunting. Those were green-face mornings. But when Dad woke you up because there was work to do? Definitely red. In today's Gospel, a father tells his two sons to go work in the vineyard. The first says, "I will not," but later changes his mind and goes. The second says, "Yes, sir," but never goes. Jesus makes the point clear: words matter, but actions reveal our hearts. And if we're honest, I think most of us already know what God is asking us to do. That's the Holy Spirit—the spiritual gut-check. So: What's God asking you to do right now? Maybe it's calling someone you've been avoiding. Forgiving someone. Asking forgiveness. Going to confession. Making time for prayer. Being kinder to someone who gets under your skin. Giving up a habit or sin you keep excusing. Reaching out to someone who's lonely. Or simply taking the next step toward becoming the person God is calling you to be. The good news is that a bad beginning doesn't have to mean a bad ending. The first son said no, but he changed his mind and went. And even when we say yes, the road won't always be easy. There will be obstacles and crosses. That doesn't mean we've failed. We just keep working in the vineyard. Every time we pray the Our Father, we say, "Thy will be done." Let's not just say it. Let's do it. So here's the gut-check: What's your next step? Whatever the Father is asking of you—go do it. Because this life is our Father's vineyard.  

Charitable giving can grow your impact, pass your values to the next generation, and lower your tax bill, but only when the intent to give is genuine. Melissa Joy, CFP®, sits down with Grace Bernhardt, Director of Charitable Solutions and Advisor Experience at Raymond James Trust, for a wide-ranging conversation on charitable giving philosophy and the planning tools available to put it into practice. Melissa and Grace walk through the full spectrum of giving vehicles, from private foundations and charitable lead and remainder trusts to the fast-growing donor advised fund, explaining how each structure works, who it tends to fit best, and the tax and legacy benefits each one offers.The conversation goes beyond the mechanics to explore why families give: using philanthropy to pass down values across generations, preparing heirs to be good stewards of wealth, and building giving strategies around major income events like a business sale, a large bonus year, or an inherited retirement account. Grace and Melissa also share how they each use donor advised funds in their own families, and Melissa reflects on why charitable giving should never be pursued purely for a tax break if the charitable intent isn't genuinely there.What You'll LearnThe difference between a private foundation, a donor advised fund, and community foundations, and how to choose among themHow charitable lead trusts and charitable remainder trusts work, and when each one makes senseWhy donor advised funds have become one of the fastest-growing charitable structures in the industryHow donating appreciated stock or other assets, rather than cash, can help you give away a future capital gains tax liabilityHow to use charitable giving strategically around high-income years, bunching deductions, and inherited retirement accountsHow to set up successor donors and legacy giving plans so a donor advised fund can outlast your lifetimeWhy charitable giving should be grounded in genuine intent, not pursued for tax benefits aloneAbout Grace BernhardtGrace Bernhardt is Director of Charitable Solutions and Advisor Experience at Raymond James Trust, where she works with clients and financial advisors on philanthropic planning strategies, including donor advised funds, private foundations, and charitable trusts.

Most philanthropists want to do more good, faster, than they actually do. My next guest has spent twenty-five years inside that gap, watching enormous wealth sit still even as donors say they want it moving.Jeffrey Bradach co-founded The Bridgespan Group and recently wrote an essay called Slow Philanthropy, Why giving by the ultra-wealthy often lags behind their ambitions—and what could help move money faster.What he found were small frictions, quiet allergies to failure and waste, and a strange kind of self-deception running through the whole system.We talk about what a dollar sitting in a bank account actually costs the world, why the ten-year mark brings a reckoning for so many donors, and what MacKenzie Scott understands that almost no one else does.It's Jeff Bradach of the Bridgespan Group on The Business of Giving.

For decades, philanthropy has chased the illusion of certainty, funding polished proposals while starving the quiet, trusted organizations actually doing the work on the ground. My next guest has spent a career trying to rewrite those rules.David Bonbright pioneered Constituent Voice—putting the people closest to a problem directly into the decisions of how to solve it. Now, through Keystone Accountability and DeepFathom, he is proposing something even more radical: shifting the social sector away from claimed outcomes and towards demonstrated capabilities. He even imagines a fictional city called "Humanville," where famous legacy institutions get passed over, and the small, hyper-trusted local groups finally get funded.We talk about the empirical mirror that changes behavior the moment people see their own data, why every honest measure eventually gets gamed, and a hard lesson David learned when he was declared persona non grata by the apartheid government in South Africa decades ago.It's David Bonbright on The Business of Giving

Cariño Maldonado has spent 25 years in construction and over a decade in affordable housing. Today she's Chief of Staff and EOS Integrator at Icon Builders, founder and president of the Arizona chapter of the Women's Affordable Housing Network (AZ WAN), and a board member of the National Association of Women in Construction (NAWIC).In this episode of Changemakers with Katie Goar, Cariño shares how a part-time college job turned into a 25-year career, why occupied renovations require a different kind of trust than new construction, and how Icon Builders is converting a former motel in Anaheim into transitional housing for young adults aging out of foster care. She also talks about launching AZ WAN from scratch, partnering with Sleep in Heavenly Peace to build beds for kids in need, and why exposing girls to construction careers earlier could change the industry's gender gap for good.What You'll Learn:How Cariño's "accidental" start in construction at age 19 turned into a 25-year careerWhat a Chief of Staff actually does inside a construction companyWhy occupied renovations require a unique level of trust with residentsThe story behind Icon Builders' motel-to-housing conversion for foster-care youth in AnaheimHow the Sleep in Heavenly Peace partnership builds beds for kids in needWhat it takes to launch a new chapter of the Women's Affordable Housing Network (AZ WAN) from the ground upNAWIC's role in exposing girls and young women to construction careersWhy "tribal knowledge" retention matters as veteran industry leaders retireWhat the EOS (Entrepreneurial Operating System) framework does for a growing companyWhy prioritization — not multitasking — is Cariño's key to balancing multiple leadership rolesTimestamps00:00 Intro to Changemakers & guest introduction00:01 Meeting at the Women's Affordable Housing Network summit in San Diego00:02 Cariño's start in construction at 19, working around college00:03 Joining Icon Builders in 201300:04 Humble beginnings and why affordable housing feels personal00:05 What a Chief of Staff does day-to-day00:06 Icon Builders' footprint: Arizona HQ, projects in CA & TX00:07 Favorite part of the job: occupied renovations & trust00:08 Partnering with Sleep in Heavenly Peace to build beds00:09 The industry's shared mission: safe homes for everyone00:10 Being a "connector" in the industry00:11 Current project: motel conversion in Anaheim, CA00:12 Transitional housing for youth aging out of foster care00:13 Launching the Arizona chapter of Women's Affordable Housing Network00:14 Connecting local housing authorities, lenders, and contractors00:15 Bridging the "tribal knowledge" gap across disciplines00:16 Giving back: bed builds and backpack drives00:17 Women empowerment within the WAN community00:18 "Even if we're teachers, we're still students"00:19 Why WAN connects the entire housing ecosystem, not just one niche00:20 AZ WAN's growth to 450+ members00:21 Serving on the NAWIC board of directors00:22 NAWIC's 40+ year history and exposing kids to construction early00:23 Bringing her own son into the construction industry00:24 Why women remain a minority in construction00:25 Breaking the glass ceiling and career growth00:26 Reflecting on job opportunities in the industry00:27 Her role as EOS Integrator at Icon Builders00:28 Balancing multiple roles — reading Essentialism00:29 Prioritization over multitasking, retaining company culture00:30 Closing thoughts & outro

What if the life you spent years trying to build isn't the life you want anymore? For most of my life, I was trying to arrive somewhere - make more money, build the audience, get another book deal, buy the house, become somebody. There was always another number to hit, another door to get through, another version of myself I thought would finally let me exhale. But lately, something has shifted. In this episode, I talk about giving yourself permission to disappoint the person you used to be. Not because that version of you was wrong, but because you're allowed to change. You're allowed to outgrow the goals, identities, and plans that once made perfect sense. I get into the difference between constantly becoming someone and actually experiencing your life, why ambition can be useful without being allowed to drive, and how easy it is to postpone happiness by attaching it to the next achievement, relationship, body, house, promotion, or milestone. Maybe the question isn't, “Where is all of this going?” Maybe it's, “Where can I go while I'm still here?” I also answer an Ask Angry question about knowing when it may be time to leave a marriage - and why waiting for absolute certainty can keep us stuck much longer than we realize. In this episode, I talk about: Giving yourself permission to disappoint the person you used to be Letting old goals and identities evolve without rejecting your past Why constantly trying to “arrive” can make you miss your actual life Ambition without letting ambition run your life Following curiosity without needing everything to be productive Why happiness becomes a moving target Recognizing joy while it's actually happening Asking whether the plan you're following still belongs to you Why certainty may never come when deciding whether to leave a relationship The questions that can reveal whether there's still something worth repairing Thanks for listening. If something in this episode hits you, pass it along to someone who might need it. If you're tired of knowing what you need to change but still repeating the same patterns, 31 Days to Get Out of Your Own Way is for you. For 31 days, we'll work on closing the gap between insight and action through structure, accountability, and ownership. Less analyzing yourself. More making different choices and actually changing your life. Learn more and join here:https://nas.com/therapist-membership-qa-space/challenges/31-days-to-get-out-of-your-own-way

"We have vastly overprotected our children in the real world. We have to give them more freedom."  —Jonathan Haidt Summary How much freedom should you give your children—and how do you know when they're ready for more? In this episode, we explore one of parenting's challenging balancing acts: offering children room to grow while providing the guidance and security they still need. Through the relatable picture of teaching a child to swim or drive, we consider why freedom is an art, not a formula, and why every child may need something different. We will tell you some stories from our own experience of our kids' small failures which become valuable preparation for bigger decisions.  We will also explain the danger of parents giving too much freedom too early and too little freedom later and why a strong relationship makes wise boundaries easier to receive. If you want to raise responsible, confident young adults while remaining a trusted and loving guide, listen in to this conversation to get some encouragement for your journey. Key Points Children need different levels of freedom depending on their maturity and readiness. Small failures help children develop the wisdom to handle bigger decisions later. Children thrive when parents combine loving relationships with confident, trustworthy guidance. Practice giving children freedom in areas of time management, social relationships, money and technology  Couple Discussion Questions How did our parents give us freedom to make choices growing up?  Do we think they gave us too much or too little?    Where can we give our children more freedom?

Look at the resources and relationships available to you, then structure funding creatively around an opportunity that makes financial sense.Scott Bossman: Once you know how to buy and sell land confidently, consider using outside capital to keep inventory and marketing moving instead of repeatedly draining your own cash reserves.Mike Zaino: When you're new, a partnership can be more valuable than simply borrowing money. Giving up part of the profit may be worthwhile if an experienced funding partner also helps validate the deal.Jon Burnett: Use every capital lever available to you—wholesaling, LandArb, selling notes, partnerships, or reasonable private loans—to keep good opportunities moving through your business.WANT MORE?Enjoyed this episode?
