The challenging field of family law is a vital part of the litigation profession, demanding an understanding of both the law and the psychological trauma that can dramatically affect the well-being of children and others caught in the middle. Guest Ashish Joshi is a Michigan attorney and author who has devoted his career to helping those struggling through the most difficult situations imaginable. Family violence, coercion, and control are, unfortunately, a huge and often under recognized part of our legal reality. The field of family law can include issues including parental alienation, child abduction, the weaponization of children and their relationships with sparring parents, gaslighting and manipulation, and even complicated adjacent areas of law such as hidden assets, stalking, and pet abuse. Family law litigation requires a complex skill set and mental toughness, but it's a vital part of our lives. Joshi shares how practicing in the field involves working with people going through the worst period of their lives, the protection of innocent and powerless victims, and the field of psychology and human behavior. Looking for a challenge and the opportunity to make a difference in someone's life? Family law litigation is a demanding and rewarding field. Also in this episode, quick tips from Erin Clifford, managing director at Clifford Law Offices, about avoiding legal burnout. Have a question, comment, or suggestion for an upcoming episode?

A 4-Step Process to Stop Stressing and Your Team Start Leading What if the exact habits that built your success are now the very thing quietly holding your business back? You hustled, you solved every problem, you held the standard — and it worked, so it became automatic. But somewhere along the way the company stopped being able to run without you, your talented team stopped stepping up, and you started wondering why working harder only makes the wheel spin faster. If any of that lands a little too close to home, this week's conversation is for you. In this episode of  A New Direction, we dig into The High-Altitude Entrepreneur with Chris Clearfield — and this episode is about you, not just the book. You'll discover why what got you here won't get you there, why all your systems still leave you trapped at the center, and the uncomfortable truth that your team won't take ownership until you stop jumping in. We even go into the brain science of it: how “predictive processing” keeps you reacting on autopilot to problems you haven't even really looked at yet — and why that's the real reason willpower never broke the cycle. Most importantly, you'll walk away with a way out. We'll unpack the shift from low-altitude founder — reactive, indispensable, exhausted — to high-altitude leader who rises above the chaos, sees the whole system, and finally lets the business grow beyond them. You'll learn how to spot the conditioned instinct that's capping your growth, how to hand your team real ownership, and why personal freedom isn't the reward you earn after success — it's the precondition that makes success possible in the first place. Join us and come ready to see your own patterns clearly, bring the questions you've been afraid to ask out loud, and bring a fellow founder who needs to hear it too. This is the conversation that helps you stop running your business from the ground — and start leading it from altitude. Chris Clearfield‘s book, “The High-Altitude Entrepreneur: A Framework for Scaling Smarter, Leading Better, and Living Freer, is a book for entrepreneurs and leaders.  And quite honestly you are going to need put aside your defensiveness, which will immediately happen when you start reading this book. Why do I say that so confidently?  Because no one wants to hear that the real problem why you as a leader are always stressed, feel like you team won’t take leadership, feel like everything falls on you, is because you are the bottleneck to your business.  But you really can’t do your out of this.  Your problem is not your people the problem is the monster you created because of the way you are wired that causes your people to not want to take action and lead. The fact is when you started your business, you pushed your way through.  You had to.  Every decision fell on you. So you put in the work, and you went into grind mode.  You lost sleep.  You pushed hard!  So now when things are not going well, or things start to go south, what do you do?  You employ your old operating system of work hard, push, and grind.  The problem.  Now you have people, and they aren’t responding. Now you are under even more stress. Your frustrated. You feel more burned out than ever.  You may even slump into depression. You think your people are lazy. They’re not the problem.  You see what got you there at the beginning was great!  But now that your business is grown, what once got you there, isn’t going to get you there now.  You don’t need to do different you need to “be” different. That is the beauty of Chris Clearfield’s book “The High-Altitude Entrepreneur”.  He has to together the High-Altitude framework that takes you step by step through a process where you can start removing yourself, so you can truly rely on others. Is it easy? Nope. Is it a quick fix? Nope. Will change your business for the better? Yep.  Will it change your life for the better? You bet! This is one of those books that if you have the guts to do it, will fundamentally change your business and you.  The book is worth every penny.

The conversations go deep. We talk about the decisions that built companies, the mistakes that nearly destroyed them, and the personal breakthroughs that changed everything. But here's what most people don't know about me: the show is an extension of the work I do every day with executives behind closed doors. Who I Am I'm an Executive Performance Coach. I work with CEOs and founders of $5M-$50M companies who have hit a wall they can't explain. The marketing looks fine. The team is capable. The market is there. But the business won't move. The problem, almost every time, is the person running it. I find the personal behavioral patterns that are driving the business dysfunction. Then I help the CEO disrupt those patterns so the company can grow. That's it. No motivational platitudes. No vision boards. Diagnostics, intervention, results. Where This Comes From My approach comes from two places most coaches never set foot in. The farm. I grew up as a farmhand in Ithaca, Nebraska—population 100. I started working at nine years old. By the time I left for college, I'd spent a decade learning that you can't cheat the harvest, pain is part of the job, and the work has to get done whether you feel like it or not. I was fourteen the first time I had to castrate boars. Nobody was going to do it for me. That lesson never left: sometimes you have to do things afraid. The forensic psychology unit. In graduate school at Washington State University, I trained under Dr. Thomas Brigham—co-author of the Handbook of Applied Behavior Analysis—in a human behavior lab focused on real-world problems. I then served in a Clinical Psych II role at Eastern State Hospital in Medical Lake, Washington, a forensic setting where I conducted psychological evaluations of individuals charged with the most serious criminal offenses. Sixteen months assessing human behavior at its most extreme taught me how to cut through defenses, identify what's really driving someone's decisions, and see what they can't see in themselves.

In this episode, I am chatting with Megan Arevalo, who lives in Michigan with her husband and two children, who are three and eight. After initially homeschooling, Megan came to unschooling after her daughter's burnout, when she realised she needed to focus entirely on connection and wellbeing. Megan talks about the subsequent autism diagnoses and her own path from feeling like she had to hold everything together to understanding her own neurodivergence. And we talk about what it looks like to embrace connection over control, let go of perfectionism, and keep learning from our children. I hope you enjoy the conversation. Connect with Megan:https://megantarevalo.substack.com/If you'd like to support the podcast and the sharing of these stories, you can do that here.   Thank you!The Parent's Handbook to Unschooling Yourself.

In this episode of The Principal's Handbook, we continue the Principal Reset Series by exploring the mindset patterns of the High-Achieving Principal. While ambition and drive can be powerful leadership strengths, they can also lead to constant comparison, moving the finish line, and never feeling like enough has been accomplished. You'll learn how achievement can become tied to your identity, why that creates pressure and burnout, and how to use the TEA Cycle to uncover the thoughts driving these patterns. This episode will help you slow down, recognize the progress you've already made, and focus on leading the right work consistently rather than chasing the next initiative.

Welcome to the one hundred and seventy eightieth episode of the #Expatchat podcast where we discuss the latest tax and financial issues affecting an #Australianexpat. Managing Directors, Brett Evans and James Ridley unpack the latest developments from the Australian Federal Budget, following the passage of key CGT and negative gearing reforms through the lower house by a 92–48 vote on Thursday. They explore what the proposed changes could mean for Australian expats and non-residents, including the introduction of a cost base indexation method from 1 July 2027, resulting in a minimum 30% tax on capital gains and the removal of additional discounting strategies. The episode also highlights the next stage of the legislative process, with Senate debate expected to follow after limited parliamentary scrutiny. Despite the uncertainty, Brett and James discuss where tax-efficient opportunities may still exist, including superannuation and share investments, and caution against making major financial decisions until further legislative detail is released later in the year.

Ah, l'Égypte ancienne… Ses pyramides, ses hiéroglyphes, son papyrus, ses pharaons… Autant de choses qui fascinent et passionnent depuis des siècles. Et pourtant on ne va pas du tout en parler aujourd'hui ! Dans cet épisode, on va se concentrer sur son aspect quotidien, sur comment vivaient les Égyptiens sous l'autorité de leur pharaon et le regard plus ou moins bienveillant de leurs divinités. Alimentation, artisanat, agriculture… Pour une fois, on va détourner le regard des grands monuments et jeter un œil vers celles et ceux sans qui ils n'auraient pas pu exister ! Bonne écoute !

You Don’t Need a Business Transformation…you need a YOU Transformation Ever feel like you're doing all the “right” things—reading the self-help books, checking off your goals, grinding every day—but inside, you're still wrestling with the exact same anxieties? You aren’t broken; you’ve just hit the ceiling of what your current self can handle. Real, lasting change requires more than just adding new habits to your daily routine; it demands a total identity transformation. If you are ready to stop merely managing your symptoms and start evolving who you are at your core, it is time for a radical internal upgrade. Today on A New Direction, Coach Jay dives deep into this psychological frontier with cutting-edge mindset expert and best-selling author, Dr. Ryan Gottfredson. We are breaking open his latest, game-changing book, Becoming Better: The Ground Breaking Science of Persona Transformation. Dr. Gottfredson bypasses the usual self-help clichés to deliver the actual, hard science behind vertical development. He will show us how to achieve a deep mental transformation that rewires our internal operating systems for unprecedented success and peace. In this powerful conversation, you will discover why traditional willpower consistently fails and how your hidden mindsets are secretly sabotaging your growth. Dr. Gottfredson will reveal the neurological and psychological blueprints necessary to shed your defensive armor, heal old wounds, and accelerate your personal transformation. This isn’t a superficial conversation about doing more; it is an exploration of how to fundamentally alter how you see yourself and the world from the inside out. Do not miss this chance to experience a life-altering transformation in real-time. Join us right here on A New Direction with Coach Jay to catch every insight, absorb the science, and discover the keys to unlocking your next level. Your old self has taken you as far as it can—it is time to step into the ultimate transformation and meet the person you were actually meant to become. A FREE Transformational Offer!  If you go to RyanGottfredson.com and you click on any of the assessments and tell Ryan you heard him on my show A New Direction with Coach Jay he will give you a FREE 30 minutes call to go over your assessment! Just click here for the assessments. Ryan Gottfredson’s Book, “Becoming Better: The Groundbreaking Science of Personal Transformation” is a life changing book that will be transformational for your business.  You may be asking how can that be?  Because the fact is your business success is limited by your personal success in life.  And when you are broken (which we all are) we are never going to be as successful in life and business until we start our journey of healing from the inside out. Dr Gottfredson likes to use the analogy of our brain and reactions, and mindsets and thinking as an operating system.  That operating system has coding from birth to now.  So, anything that we react to our coding kicks in and we respond in a way that can damage our success.  So, the fact is our operating system really needs to be recoded, the problem is we don’t want to do the hard work to do it. But here is the irony.  When we have problems in life and business what do we typically do?  We try to find ways we can “do” our way out of something.  We may go to a conference to go new ways of “doing” things.  That all sounds great but let’s take the analogy one step further.  Think of it this way.  If you download another app on your phone to help you “do” something, but your operating system coding (IOS) is screwed up, and is a mess, how effective is that app… it’s not. And no transformation. That’s the point of Becoming Better.  Until you change the coding from the bad coding in your past all the “do this” and “do that” are nothing more than great apps on a horribly written operating system. And your business and life transformation is at a stand still. The brilliance of the book is that not only does Dr. Gottfredson address these issues he gives you the science behind them and offers the small building blocks and steps to start erasing the bad code in your operating system and writing new code.  But it is not easy.  And I am speaking from my own experience here.  When you realize just how much trauma in your past (that you will deny, like I did) and how it has affected your coding, you will see how much success you can achieve. Please get a copy of this book Becoming Better and do the work!

ABOUT YOUR HOST Meet Jay Izso Executive Performance Coach  |  Host of A New Direction Every week on A New Direction, I sit down with CEOs, founders, and the researchers behind the science of leadership performance. The conversations go deep. We talk about the decisions that built companies, the mistakes that nearly destroyed them, and the personal breakthroughs that changed everything. But here's what most people don't know about me: the show is an extension of the work I do every day with executives behind closed doors. Who I Am I'm an Executive Performance Coach. I work with CEOs and founders of $5M-$50M companies who have hit a wall they can't explain. The marketing looks fine. The team is capable. The market is there. But the business won't move. The problem, almost every time, is the person running it. I find the personal behavioral patterns that are driving the business dysfunction. Then I help the CEO disrupt those patterns so the company can grow. That's it. No motivational platitudes. No vision boards. Diagnostics, intervention, results. Where This Comes From My approach comes from two places most coaches never set foot in. The farm. I grew up as a farmhand in Ithaca, Nebraska—population 100. I started working at nine years old. By the time I left for college, I'd spent a decade learning that you can't cheat the harvest, pain is part of the job, and the work has to get done whether you feel like it or not. I was fourteen the first time I had to castrate boars. Nobody was going to do it for me. That lesson never left: sometimes you have to do things afraid. The forensic psychology unit. In graduate school at Washington State University, I trained under Dr. Thomas Brigham—co-author of the Handbook of Applied Behavior Analysis—in a human behavior lab focused on real-world problems. I then served in a Clinical Psych II role at Eastern State Hospital in Medical Lake, Washington, a forensic setting where I conducted psychological evaluations of individuals charged with the most serious criminal offenses. Sixteen months assessing human behavior at its most extreme taught me how to cut through defenses, identify what's really driving someone's decisions, and see what they can't see in themselves.

I walk through the story of a burned-out assistant principal and break down the hidden patterns that keep school leaders overwhelmed, emotionally exhausted, and constantly reacting. You'll learn how thoughts create emotions and actions through the TEA Cycle, and how shifting your mindset can help you lead more sustainably. We also talk about boundaries, perfectionism, urgency, and over-responsibility—and why burnout doesn't go away on its own.

What it takes to lead as a communicator and communicate as a leader.Leadership isn't just about making decisions — it's about how you communicate them. As Matt Abrahams puts it, “Communication is operationalized leadership.”At a recent Me2We event, in connection with Stanford GSB's Executive Education LEAD program, Abrahams held a live discussion with four of the podcast's most popular guests: Celine Teoh, facilitator of the GSB's famous Interpersonal Dynamics course; Huggy Rao, organizational behavior professor and co-author of The Friction Project; legendary Stanford basketball coach Tara VanDerveer; and Dave Dodson, lecturer and author of The Manager's Handbook.In this special live episode of Think Fast, Talk Smart, the panel shares frameworks and lessons for leading and communicating more effectively. From Teoh's five A's for inviting dissent to Rao's warning against “jargon monoxide,” from VanDerveer's relationship-first approach to Dodson's case for leading like a teacher, this conversation explores what it takes to communicate as a leader — and lead as a communicator.Episode Reference Links:Celine TeohTara VanDerveerHuggy RaoHuggy's Book: The Friction ProjectDavid DodsonDavid's Book: The Manager's HandbookEp.194 Live Lessons in Levity and Leadership: Me2We 2025 Part 1 Connect:Premium Signup >>>> Think Fast Talk Smart PremiumEmail Questions & Feedback >>> hello@fastersmarter.ioEpisode Transcripts >>> Think Fast Talk Smart WebsiteNewsletter Signup + English Language Learning >>> FasterSmarter.ioThink Fast Talk Smart >>> LinkedIn, Instagram, YouTubeMatt Abrahams >>> LinkedIn Chapters:(00:00) - Introduction (04:18) - Encouraging Dissent (06:40) - The Addition Bias (09:57) - Coaching Through Encouragement (12:12) - Leadership in the AI Era (16:24) - Teaching vs. Managing (17:46) - Making People Feel Appreciated (19:06) - Slowing Down Decisions (21:24) - Listening More (24:24) - Avoiding Jargon (26:31) - Giving Better Feedback (28:53) - Preparing for Communication (29:44) - Using Communication Frameworks (31:15) - Skills for Future Leaders (37:47) - Conclusion

Forget McDonald’s and Chick-Fi-A Non-Food Franchising May be a Better Bet When most people think of starting a business, their minds immediately go to fast food. We've been conditioned to associate “franchising” with burgers, fries, and massive overhead. But in his game-changing book, “Non-food franchising: The Better Path to Business Ownership,” Jon Ostenson explains why you might want to leave the grease traps behind. This isn’t just about picking a different industry; it's about a fundamental shift in how you build wealth. Non-food franchising offers a gateway to high-margin, essential-service businesses that provide the stability the food industry often lacks. There is a profound emotional cost to staying in a corporate job that no longer serves you. We all crave a sense of agency over our own lives, and non-food franchising is designed to provide exactly that. Jon explores how these businesses—ranging from home services to specialized health care—allow “corporate refugees” to stop trading hours for dollars. It's about building a legacy that supports your family and your freedom, using a proven system that doesn’t require you to be the one performing the labor. If you've ever felt like your potential is being capped by a ceiling someone else built, this conversation will be your sledgehammer. During our live deep dive, we'll look at why the most successful investors are flocking to non-food franchising. These businesses are often “recession-resistant” because they provide services people need rather than just things they want. We will break down the semi-absentee model, showing you how to scale a portfolio of businesses while keeping your day job or enjoying your retirement. By focusing on non-food franchising, you minimize the complexity of high-turnover staff and perishable inventory, focusing instead on the “boring” businesses that produce exciting, consistent cash flow. You cannot afford to miss this high-impact session on A New Direction with Coach Jay. Join us live this Wednesday, May 27th at 5pm Eastern as we interview Jon Ostenson and pull back the curtain on the lucrative world of non-food franchising. Whether you're looking to diversify your investments or completely pivot your career, this episode will give you the roadmap to move forward with confidence. Tune in and discover why your next big move doesn’t have to involve a drive-thru window. Jon Ostenson‘s book, “Non-Food Franchising: The Better Path to Business Ownership” is one of those powerful books in a short read.  The fact is I learned more about non-food franchising in this 75-page book than I had learned in my lifetime.  In fact, the book was so good, it has got me thinking about investing in to a non-food franchising opportunity. What I found so great about the book is that it is an honest, simple look at why non-food franchising is such a great opportunity.  He looks at the pros and cons of comparing to food franchises.  He also compares to the challenges of starting your own business or perhaps purchasing someone else’s business. Now don’t think that what Jon Ostenson is saying is all butterflies and roses when it comes to franchising.  Because he is not.  He points out there is a risk.  And he also points out something else.  It is not for everyone.  The fact is you could be “TOO entrepreneurial” for a non-food franchise, because you like to tweak and do things your own way.  That’s where you need to put your ego aside, accepting some humility comes in. The book talks about the subject of how to get money, different avenues to get started, and a step-by-step process he uses.  He also discusses the documents that are reviewed and specific areas to pay very close attention to.  Glad I read it twice!

In this episode, I am chatting with Carey Kirkella who lives with her husband and eight-year-old son in New York City. They came to unschooling after her son had many struggles at pre-K then in Kindergarten. Though on the outside he seemed to be doing fine, Carey saw how he was becoming more anxious and stressed and had increasing sensory issues. Carey shares how her son is doing now and how their lives look, along with all the challenges that come with accompanying a child as they recover from burnout, and how that impacts her too.

The 13-Hour Photoperiod: Breaking the traditional 12/12 cycle to achieve a 39%–50% yield increase and a 9% THC boost. Linear Light Scaling: The direct relationship between light intensity and flower yield scaling all the way up to 1,800 micromoles under ambient CO2. The UV Reality Check: Why modern high-THC genetics actually showed a decrease in final cannabinoid and terpene content under supplemental UVA and UVB. Light Response Curves: Why relying on a single leaf measurement to guide your facility's light saturation point is fundamentally flawed. The Veg-to-Flower Transition: Practical SOPs for adjusting PPFD and DLI safely without shocking your canopy. Controlled Deficit Irrigation: How a single, targeted late-flower drought stress event triggers a 12%–13% spike in final THC and CBD content.

In this episode of The Principal's Handbook, we're talking about how to finish the school year strong when everyone is tired, including you. The end of the year can bring exhaustion, increased behaviors, emotional staff dynamics, and constant decision fatigue, making it easy for leaders to slip into survival mode. This episode explores why this season feels so heavy for school leaders and how to stay grounded, intentional, and emotionally steady even when your energy is low. You'll walk away with practical mindset shifts and leadership strategies to help you protect your energy, support your staff, and lead your building with clarity through the final weeks of school.  We're thrilled to be sponsored by IXL. IXL's comprehensive teaching and learning platform for math, language arts, science, and social studies is accelerating achievement in 95 of the top 100 U.S. school districts.

The 2026 National MFT Exam isn't exactly the test you thought you were studying for. While most candidates were focused on the January handbook, a quiet, unannounced revision in March 2026 moved the goalposts while many were already mid-sprint. Whether you're weeks away from your window or just beginning to map out your licensure journey, understanding this "recalibration" is the difference between passing with confidence and being blindsided by a screen full of surprises. In this episode, Peter Fenger and Sharlee Dixon break down the high-stakes reality of the AMFTRB's silent update. We dig into the major shifts in domain weighting and why a "typical" study plan might now be missing the mark. We explore the two biggest curriculum additions: the integration of AI in clinical practice and a deeper, more intersectional focus on cultural competency. We tackle the tough questions: Why did the board change the outline without an announcement? How do you pivot your strategy when the website and the handbook don't match? And most importantly, how do you handle the "test anxiety 2.0" that comes when the testing body itself breaks standard protocol?   Follow Behavioral Health Today on Instagram at: https://www.instagram.com/behavioralhealthtoday/ Follow us on TikTok at: https://www.tiktok.com/@behavioralhealthtoday Follow us on Threads at: https://www.threads.net/@behavioralhealthtoday Or watch us live on YouTube at: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCvOeCMGsF7B2gNBHuWxt-fQ
