Adam Robinson spent a decade on Wall Street trading credit default swaps, then walked away to build a company out of his own apartment. Today he runs a $35 million business with 32 people and lives in Aspen with his family. Getting there was no easy feat.In this episode, Adam and I go back in time to where he first learned what success looked like watching a neighborhood orthopedic surgeon to how his father, an oil trader, shaped what he expected from work-life. We talk about brute-forcing his first company into revenue by running a call center out of his own apartment, the two in-person mass layoffs he had to deliver years apart, and the identity crisis that hit after he left Wall Street, one he describes as the closest he's come to depression. We trace how his relationship with money changed over time, from the trading floor's need to always make more, to a point today where he says he's no longer attached to any number at all.Adam opens up about what it felt like the day his first company sold, why it didn't feel like real success at the time, how Retention.com was born as a result, and what he's building now with his fourth company, MoltSets. This is a conversation about what happens on the inside as a founder finally makes real money and starts living the dream.

The Secondary Teacher Podcast explores how to take the planning process from one finished unit and carry it into the next course, the next standard, and the next prep without rebuilding everything from scratch.The common mistake is assuming that planning one unit means planning the whole year. That was never the goal. One unit gives you something more useful: a practiced decision-making process. You've identified what students are working toward, mapped the flow of the unit, sorted the materials you already have, and decided what is ready enough to teach. The next unit still has different content, different standards, and possibly a completely different course. But you're no longer facing a blank page. You have a process to follow.That matters because secondary teachers rarely have the luxury of repeating the same course all day. A middle school or high school teacher might move from an intro engineering class to a foods class, an elective, or a mixed-level course. The content can feel unrelated. The planning decisions aren't. Every course asks you to figure out what students should be able to do by the end, what materials are already available, what can be adapted, what genuinely needs to be created, and what can wait. A repeatable planning process across multiple preps gives those questions a home.The episode points to a familiar scene in teacher Facebook groups. Someone asks, “What is everyone using for this course?” Another teacher asks whether anyone has a unit for a particular standard. Someone else has just found out they're teaching something new and needs help immediately. Those aren't bad questions. They come from teachers who care and are trying to make a responsible plan. But a borrowed curriculum or shared unit rarely solves the long-term problem by itself. The stronger answer is knowing how to look at what you already have, evaluate what you find, and make decisions quickly and confidently.That shift starts with one unit at a time. Before opening another resource site or collecting more ideas, write down what students should be able to do by the end of the unit. Then pull together the materials you already have. Use the Ready Enough Sort to separate what is ready to teach, what is close enough to adapt, what needs more work, and what can wait. The point isn't to produce a perfect unit with every minute planned. The point is to reach a real finish line called ready enough to teach.The same questions can guide a second unit, a third unit, and a second prep. What are students working toward? What do you already have that can be reused or adapted? What genuinely needs to be created? What can wait? What does ready enough look like for this unit? The decision-making framework stays steady while the content rotates. That's why the process works for a CTE class, an elective, and a mixed-level course, even when those classrooms appear to have little in common.The first unit in each course will usually feel like the hardest one because you're making content decisions while also learning the planning process. The second unit becomes lighter because you already understand more about that classroom. You know what students are working toward. You know what materials you have. You have a clearer sense of what ready enough looks like in that context. The workload doesn't disappear, but the decision-making gets faster. Instead of asking, “Where do I even start?” you can ask, “What's the next decision?”That is the practical value of a repeatable planning process across multiple preps. Four preps still mean four sets of content. The process doesn't pretend otherwise. But four preps don't have to mean four complete reinventions of planning. The same structure can travel from one course to another. You can clarify the produce, map the introduce, practice, produce flow, sort what you have, decide what is ready enough, and keep moving. One unit teaches you how to plan the next one without consuming every planning period and Sunday night.The episode also connects this process to teacher work life balance, especially the low hum of unfinished planning. That background process can follow you out of school, continue through dinner, and show up on Sunday night as the feeling that next week still isn't quite ready. Early in the school year, that hum may still be present. Nobody has everything figured out after a few days or a few weeks. A planning process doesn't magically make every task disappear. It gives uncertainty somewhere to go. You know the questions to ask, the order to ask them in, and the next decision in front of you. That can make the background noise quieter.The approach is especially useful for teachers who keep collecting ideas but still don't feel ready to teach. More curriculum doesn't automatically create clarity. More tabs open on a computer don't necessarily create a unit. The better move is to stop searching long enough to identify the finish line. Decide what students should be able to do. Gather what is already there. Sort it. Reuse what works. Adapt what is close. Identify what is actually missing. Let the rest wait. Planning becomes a sequence of decisions instead of an endless hunt for the perfect resource.This is also where the idea of ready enough matters. Ready enough doesn't mean careless, incomplete in a way that harms students, or unwilling to improve. It means you have made the decisions needed to teach the unit and have stopped treating every possible improvement as an emergency. You can teach what is ready, notice what students need, and make adjustments from there. The finish line protects planning from expanding forever. Without a finish line, every unit can remain half-planned indefinitely.For middle and high school teachers, that distinction has real weight. A single-prep mindset can make it seem as if every course needs the same depth of preparation at the same time. A multi-prep teacher doesn't have that option. There are several classrooms, several sets of students, and several unit sequences competing for attention. The answer isn't to plan every unit in every course all at once. The answer is to carry the same questions from one unit to the next and work through them in order.The episode's practical advice is simple: before asking what everyone else is doing, ask what students need to be able to do by the end of the unit. Before creating new materials, inspect what you already have. Before rebuilding an entire course, decide what this unit needs. Before spending another evening mentally solving the plan, identify the next decision. Those teacher tips are grounded in the actual work of a secondary classroom, where planning time is limited and the next course is already waiting.A repeatable planning process across multiple preps also helps teachers stop measuring progress by how much of the year is complete. The better measure is whether you can make the next unit's planning decisions with less friction than the last one. Maybe you now recognize which materials are ready enough without rereading every page. Maybe you can identify the produce before getting lost in activities. Maybe you can tell the difference between a missing resource and a resource that simply needs adaptation. Those small decisions compound across the year.The Ready Enough Sort is part of that practical structure. It gives you a way to handle the materials already sitting in your files, folders, drives, or classroom. Not everything deserves equal attention. Some resources are ready to teach. Some are close and need adaptation. Some need to be created. Some can wait. When every item feels equally urgent, planning stretches into the evening. When materials are sorted by what they require, the next action becomes clearer.That clarity matters across courses. In an intro engineering class, students might be working toward a design or production task. In a foods class, the unit might have a different kind of produce. In a course you've taught for several years, the content may be familiar while the unit still feels underdeveloped. The examples change, but the planning questions hold. What is the destination? What is the flow from introduce to practice to produce? What do students need to do? What materials can support that work? What can be ready enough for this unit?The...

Not your whole curriculum, not every prep, and not the entire school year mapped out before September. For middle and high school teachers managing multiple preps, that smaller target can feel almost too simple. It can also be the first target that gives planning a real finish line. This episode of The Secondary Teacher Podcast takes on the question sitting behind every multi-prep teacher's work: what can one unit actually solve when you still have four preps waiting? The honest answer is that one unit won't magically plan every course. It can give you proof that a repeatable planning process works, and that proof matters more than one beautiful lesson plan.The common mistake is treating every course like a separate creation project. With three, four, or five courses, each class can begin to feel like its own world. The activity structure that worked in engineering may seem useless in CAD. A routine from an introductory course may appear impossible to transfer to an advanced one. A planning approach that helped in one prep can feel as though it has to be reinvented for the next. Before long, every unit starts from zero. That's the part that makes planning relentless. The work isn't only the volume of lessons, materials, and decisions. It's the constant rebuilding of how to plan whenever the content changes. Teacher time management starts with one strong unit because that unit can interrupt the cycle of starting over.The better way is to separate content from the process used to make planning decisions. Content changes from course to course, but the way you decide what students are working toward, what materials are usable, and what still needs attention can travel. The Introduce, Practice, Produce structure is presented as a structure that can work in a CTE course, an elective, a mixed-level class, or a singleton course nobody else in the school has taught. The Ready Enough SORT, reuse, adapt, create, find, decide, wait, gives you a way to examine the materials in front of you without assuming everything must be built from scratch. These are planning decisions you can carry into another unit, even when the topic and course change.That transfer is the point. After one unit, the next planning session doesn't begin with an empty page. You have a structure to put materials into. You have a framework for deciding what you already have. You have a finish line you've reached before. This is what makes teacher time management starts with one strong unit more than a catchy episode title. The first unit serves as evidence. It shows that planning can move through an order instead of scattering across every possible task. The next time you sit down with a different unit in the same course, or with a completely different course, the content may be unfamiliar, but the planning process doesn't have to be.The decision-making gets faster because you've practiced it, not because you're rushing. The first time you sort materials through reuse, adapt, create, find, decide, and wait, you're learning the framework while applying it. The second time is faster. By the third time, the framework can begin to feel like the way you naturally think about planning. That progression is especially important for multiple prep teachers because a planning process can't depend on having endless time to make every choice from scratch. “Ready enough” becomes something you can identify rather than a finish line that keeps moving. You know what questions to ask, the order to ask them in, and what enough looks like for the unit in front of you.There's an emotional shift here, too. Multiple prep teachers often carry the feeling that they're always behind, always underprepared, or always one unit away from feeling okay. A clear process doesn't mean everything is finished. It means the decision that needed to be made has been made, while the rest can wait. That distinction changes the work. The materials don't necessarily change. The way you look at them does. In the episode, teachers who once said, “I need to create everything,” began saying, “I already have this, I can adapt this, this can wait.” That is the move from planning as a creation project to planning as a series of decisions.One specific moment captures the shift. A teacher can look at a unit and initially see a long list of things to invent: lessons, slides, activities, and documents. The process asks that teacher to slow down and sort the work instead. What is the unit trying to accomplish? What are students working toward? What materials already exist? What needs adapting? What genuinely needs creating? What can wait? When those questions have answers, the unit is ready enough to teach. It may not be perfect, completely polished, or arranged in a perfectly organized Google Drive. The deliverable is the decision. Teacher time management starts with one strong unit when you stop measuring progress by how finished the files look and start measuring it by whether the important planning decisions are clear.This episode is for middle and high school teachers juggling multiple preps, especially teachers who feel every new course demands an entirely new system. It's for the teacher with four preps who hears “focus on one unit” and immediately thinks, “I still have four preps.” It's for the teacher who has collected materials but can't decide what to reuse, adapt, create, find, decide, or postpone. It's also for the teacher who has tried programs that felt bigger, more general, or less practical than expected. The Unit Planning Lab is named as the place to bring one unit, work through the planning decisions in order, and leave with something ready enough to teach and a process to repeat. All content is available as soon as you join, with the link in the show notes.You don't need to plan everything this summer. Build one unit well, with a clear process underneath it, and let that unit prove that planning doesn't have to be hard in the same way every time. The next unit can be lighter because you're no longer starting from scratch. The one after that can be lighter still. That doesn't promise that teaching becomes easy. It means planning becomes more manageable when you work with intention instead of treating every course as a brand-new creation project. For teacher time management starts with one strong unit, finish something that makes tomorrow lighter.Plan less from zero. Teach with more room to breathe.

This episode of The Secondary Teacher Podcast makes the case for knowing when to stop planning, especially when every new unit feels like the first unit you've ever planned. You may know your content well, care deeply about your students, and still find yourself rebuilding everything from zero before you feel allowed to teach it.The usual standard for a “planned” unit is impossible to satisfy. Every lesson must be complete. Every resource must be created. Every example must be found. Every possible classroom decision must be made ahead of time. That version of planning never ends because there's always something else to add, improve, or prepare. The more you care, the more missing pieces you can see. That doesn't mean you're disorganized or failing. It means thorough teachers need a finish line that actually exists.The better standard is ready enough. Ready enough means you know what you're introducing and how you'll introduce it. You know how students will practice. You know what students are working toward producing. The structure is settled, even when every detail isn't predetermined. That's the point of knowing when to stop planning. You're not declaring the unit perfect. You're deciding that you know enough to teach it well and make the next decision when better information becomes available.This matters even more in a secondary classroom, where multiple preps can make every planning session feel like a negotiation with the clock. Starting with produce gives you a useful filter. First, identify what students are going to make, do, demonstrate, explain, design, or perform. Then ask whether the introduce phase gives students what they need to begin and whether the practice phase builds the skills they'll need. If a decision doesn't affect that path before day one, it may not belong on today's planning list.A major source of planning overwhelm is trying to predict what can only be learned through teaching. You might plan a practice structure, but you can't know in advance whether students will need to do it once, twice, or three times. You may need to watch the first round before deciding what happens next. Students might be ready to move on. A misconception might need attention. The class might need another round of practice. That isn't incomplete planning. That's teaching. Spending hours deciding before you have the evidence isn't preparation anymore. It's prediction.The episode also challenges the habit of collecting every engaging example ahead of time. One summer, the speaker spent significant time searching for movie clips to connect with future units. The goal was to find relevant examples before they were needed, but most of the clips didn't quite fit because the search happened without classroom context. Later, while watching a movie with a child, a moment on screen immediately stood out as exactly the example needed for the next day. The connection was easier to recognize because the learning was happening right then and the need was clear.That story changes what being prepared can mean. Stopping your planning doesn't mean you stop noticing useful ideas. It means you stop demanding that every possible good idea be found before a unit can be called ready. A little space can make you more responsive to what's actually happening in the room. It can also leave room for a connection to appear while you're living your life, watching a movie, driving to school, or doing something unrelated to teaching. Not every valuable classroom idea has to be manufactured during a Sunday planning session.This episode is for middle and high school teachers who keep extending the work because “finished” always moves farther away. It's for the teacher with several courses to prepare, the teacher who knows the content but keeps second-guessing the plan, and the teacher who wants effective classroom routines without turning every unit into a complete production before students arrive. The conversation offers practical teacher tips for deciding what must be settled now, what can wait until students begin practicing, and what may not need to happen at all.Before closing the laptop, replace “Is this completely finished?” with a more useful question: “Do I know enough to teach this well and make the next decision when I have better information?” That question protects your standards while giving planning a boundary. A ready unit has a direction, a way for students to get there, and enough structure to begin. It doesn't need every possible example, resource, or decision. Ready enough is a professional judgment call, not what happens after you run out of energy.If you want to work through the process with an actual unit, the episode points listeners to the Unit Planning Lab. Inside, the work centers on clarifying your produce, mapping the flow, sorting what you already have, and deciding what ready enough looks like for that unit before you walk into the classroom. The goal is a process that can travel across courses, preps, and content areas, including the courses that seem to have nothing in common. One well-built unit can give you more than something to teach. It can give you a repeatable way to decide, prepare, and stop.Stop planning like the finish line is allowed to run away.

Everybody fantasizes about being their own boss, but nobody fantasizes about standing in front of a field at 6 AM wondering if you made the right call, or about the part where you clean the toilets. After a decade interviewing farmers who made the jump from employee to owner, the same seven walls come up again and again. Watch the episode here!

What does it look like when an organization truly lives its values? For Human and Organization Performance (HOP) consultant, Steve Scott, it starts with trust: trust workers to know their jobs, trust workers to treat mistakes as opportunities to learn, and create enough trust for people to speak up about risks. Drawing on thirty years of experience at Alcoa, from the factory floor to leadership and continuous improvement roles, Scott shares how HOP can help organizations move beyond simply preventing incidents, to understanding how to truly protect workers and organizations. He explores the benefits and challenges that come with putting HOP into practice, and why, as he puts it, “Telling people we're going to make a change is not enough. You gotta demonstrate it.”

Host Todd talks with safety professional and singer-songwriter Toni Vere about human and organizational performance (HOP), accountability, and the power of fixing systems instead of blaming people. Toni performs "Don't Shoot the Dog," a song that turns shop‑floor experience and worker expertise into a memorable lesson on creating safer, smarter workplaces.

But as host Khristen Massic points out, this approach just buries you under an endless to-do list. The real shift? Start with the end. Ask yourself, “What will my students actually be able to do by the end of this unit?” That's your north star, cutting through the noise and helping you ditch anything that doesn't get students to that outcome.It's a rebellious move to let go of that beloved activity you've saved for years or to admit that some glittery resource just won't move the needle. But planning is about decision-making, not collecting. Khristen gives a real-talk example from a world language classroom: it's not enough to finish “Unit 4” or knock out every vocab worksheet. The key is whether students can actually use the language to communicate or understand. Suddenly, every activity, resource, and lesson has to earn its spot—and as soon as you know the end goal, the rest is so much easier to sort.She breaks it down with the introduce, practice, produce framework. Before picking any resource, get crystal clear on what students should demonstrate as their final product. Only then can you build backward—deciding what background knowledge to introduce, the skills to practice, and which opportunities will let students show what they've learned. This progression keeps your units focused and, more importantly, teachable.If your gut reaction is to pile on more—just in case—slow down. The power of “this can wait” is your new best friend. As Khristen admits, there's always another extension, activity, or project you could add, especially if you care deeply about your content. But piling on extras only muddies the waters and makes it impossible to finish anything. Giving yourself permission to wait or set something aside doesn't lower the bar; it sets a much-needed boundary so you can actually finish the unit and get your life back.Middle and high school teachers with multiple preps, this advice hits even harder. When your courses feel like separate universes, it's tempting to reinvent your planning systems for every class. Khristen's approach—focusing every course around the same core questions about the end goal and sorting your resources accordingly—lets you reuse your decision-making process instead of reinventing the wheel every time your subject changes. That's what makes all those preps manageable, not multiplying.She shares an anecdote from the Unit Planning Lab, where teachers' thinking changed drastically—not because they found more resources, but because they learned to match activities to stages of learning. Instead of treating each lesson as a stand-alone event, they could finally see where everything fit, and what just didn't belong. That “aha” moment is the kind of clarity every secondary classroom needs to avoid overwhelm and actually build momentum.So, before you click open Google Drive or start trolling for more worksheets online, pause. Ask yourself: if students finish this unit, what can they do now that they couldn't do before? That's the filter. Build your unit around that. Every resource, every lesson, every shiny new idea—run them through that lens. Only keep what moves students closer to the end goal, and push everything else to the “maybe later” pile.This episode is for every secondary teacher tired of endless planning, especially those stuck in the trap of “one more thing.” It's for the multi-prep warriors who don't want to sacrifice work life balance for the sake of coverage, and for anyone who wants real, practical teacher tips that actually lighten the load. Host Khristen Massic doesn't just hand you inspiration, she gives you a process that works in real secondary classrooms, with all the mess and pressure that comes with middle and high school teaching.Ready to rebel against overwhelming planning and make tomorrow lighter? Start with the end in mind, eliminate the excess, and watch your classroom—and sanity—fall into place.Keep teaching like you've got nothing to prove.

(8/27, pt. 2 of 2) Barry Bicker, Moonlight Brewing co-owner and President, joins Herlinda Heras and her other guests on Brew Ha Ha. Also in the studio for today’s show are Ron Silberstein and Kim Sturdevant from Admiral Maltings. This is part two of their conversation. Part one is right here. On September 19, Admiral Maltings is putting on a promotion called “It’s the Malt!” Moonlight Brewing will be one of the breweries at the party on September 19. Moonlight Brewing Co. will be holding their 34th anniversary party, on Saturday, August 29. Brian Hunt founded Moonlight Brewing in 1992. They are releasing a new beer called Deep Cut Lager, with Deep Cut Cascade hops from Yakima Valley. They have DJs and live bands. It is family friendly and dog friendly. Herlinda first met Barry Bicker when he was at Lagunitas. She remembers bringing Moonlight and Lagunitas to a beer festival in Lithuania. The Moonlight beer never got out of customs, but the Lagunitas got through and it was a hit. They were so excited to get Lagunitas which they had only heard of at that time. Sweden was Lagunitas’ first export market. Herlinda met Ron when he was doing Thirsty Bear Beer in San Francisco. Unfortunately, the pandemic got it.  Change Is the Only Constant Herlinda has seen so many changes in the craft brewing business since she started doing this show over a decade ago. Firestone-Walker has taken over the brewing for Stong. She has seen Kim’s career progress too through several different breweries. Herlinda noticed a comment on Sayre Pietroski’s blog saying that things are going local. The guests agree. ++++++Visit Russian River Brewing Co. in Santa Rosa on 4th St. and at their big Windsor location. Check out their website and socials for up-to-date hours, menus, beers and more.++++++ As people drink lower ABV beers, lagers are more popular again. Hop farmers are also planting grain. Growing barley is a great rotator crop for farmers. Some people can make beer from hops and grain from the same farm. As the great imaginary pendulum of changing tastes swings slowly back and forth, lagers and subtle flavors are more popular again. ******Visit our sponsor Pro Chiller online for all the info about their new CO2-based Pro Green Solutions.****** Herlinda notices how the careers of her three guests have progressed. Barry sees more consolidation happening, but not for Moonlight. They believe that local is important and there is more quality and good, fresh products. There is great beer being brewed in a lot of places now. But now that people are used to having craft beer, the bar is set higher for quality. Also, the personal touch of local people is priceless. They taste a Moonlight beer called Working for Tips, which is flavored with the tips of redwood trees. Ron says it is the best non-hopped beer he has ever tasted. Brews have been flavored with spruce and juniper branches in Nordic countries. As people drink lower ABV beers, lagers are more popular again. Hop farmers are also planting grain. Growing barley is a great rotator crop for farmers. Some people can make beer from hops and grain from the same farm.

Ilias Contreas bootstrapped Mixology Academy from a garage in Rome into the leading bartending training school in Italy. €4 million in annual revenue, 10,000 students, half the Italian market. Then he moved to Costa Rica, kept the business growing at startup speed from 10,000 kilometers away, and by every external measure was living the dream. And then one morning he opened his email and found a letter. After 18 years, he had lost control of the company he founded.In this episode, Ilias and I go into what it actually feels like to build a life you designed and then discover the thing that funds it is no longer yours to decide on. We talk about the 100-hour weeks in the beginning and what was really driving him back then, why he chose Costa Rica for a month and never left, the stimuli he was missing while the business was growing 43% a year without him in the building, and why after the shock of the lockout his dominant feeling was relief.We also get into how his sense of purpose shifted from being the face of an industry to being useful without being indispensable, why he started building again within six months even though he didn't need to, and what he's chasing now that money is no longer the goal.If you've ever built the dream and wondered what comes after because something was missing, this one's for you._______(01:35) The son of a doctor who wanted to be a writer (03:06) Why he went to London at 20 (05:37) His first 18 minutes behind a bar (07:04) The 100-hour weeks he doesn't wish on anyone (10:32) Working 24 hours straight without knowing why (14:28) The garage where Mixology Academy started (17:34) Why entrepreneurs aren't heroes in Italy (19:53) The moment he burned out (20:23) One month in Costa Rica, and never the same (26:08) Eight days after moving, the pandemic hit (27:41) Turning a physical school into a virtual one overnight (30:24) What €4M did to how he saw himself (31:03) Ragione sociale: what a company owes the community (34:00) The stimuli he was missing while living the dream (36:42) When the purpose stopped matching the work (38:12) The morning he couldn't log in (41:04) Why he was relieved before he was angry (42:14) Selling his shares, and starting over in six months (45:10) What he's chasing now that money isn't the goal (47:38) The one thing he would do differentlyShow notes:Find show notes of each episode on ProfitLed.fm. Connect with our host:Follow Melissa on LinkedIn where she shares stories & lessons from her founder journey weekly.Connect with Melissa at melissakwan.com and subscribe to  'your founder next door', Melissa's weekly newsletter on what it's like to build a company without an abundance of resources and friends in high places.Follow @themelissakwan on Instagram and YouTube where she shares short videos of business advice and other truth-bomb sound bites.This podcast was brought to you by eWebinar:Find out how you can turn pre-recorded videos into interactive experiences with chat so you can run your demos, onboarding calls, and training sessions on autopilot, 24/7, without being there.

In this episode of The Secondary Teacher Podcast, host Khristen Massic takes you behind the scenes of smarter lesson planning with an approach called the “Ready Enough Sort.” If you've ever searched for “secondary teacher planning starts with sorting, not creating,” you're in the right place. Khristen isn't here to sell you on yet another endless to-do list—she's showing you how to break the cycle and actually reclaim your evenings.We all fall for the trap: thinking effective teaching means fresh, stunning resources for every unit, every year. Host Khristen Massic is calling BS. Before you pour hours into that next project or activity, hit pause and sort what you have. Pull every single resource for your unit out of its hiding spots—Google Drive rabbit holes, forgotten email threads, dust-covered folders, even that TPT download you never opened. The magic isn't in making more stuff, but in seeing what's actually there.Here's the heart of it: planning isn't just about creation. It's about making decisions. Most teachers, especially those juggling multiple preps, walk into planning thinking almost everything belongs in the “create” pile. Khristen calls that out—your teacher workload explodes when you default to creating. Sorting unlocks the truth: you already have more than you think, and a lot of what you planned to build, you just don't need.Want a more concrete approach? Picture this: you've gathered all your unit materials into one spot. Instead of diving straight into fixing or organizing them, you sort. Host Khristen Massic breaks it down into six clear categories—reuse, adapt, create, find, decide, and wait. Maybe you've got last year's activity that hit all the right notes—reuse it. Got something that almost works, but needs a tweak? Adapt. Have a genuine gap? Fine—create, but only what's actually missing.Finding resources doesn't have to hijack your prep time, either. Make a running list of what you still need to find—a video, a demonstration, an example. Don't let yourself get sucked into an endless Google search spiral when you should be making a decision about your unit. The way Khristen puts it, identifying the hole is enough for now. Filling it? That can wait until you actually have the headspace.One of the most revolutionary parts? Not everything needs to be done before day one. Some decisions you're better equipped to make after you've met your students; some materials may never get used at all. The “wait” category is key to classroom routines that actually work and to protecting your work life balance as a secondary teacher.Khristen also distinguishes between two powerful frameworks. Introduce-Practice-Produce tells you where something belongs in your student's learning journey, while the Ready Enough Sort tells you what you, as the teacher, actually need to do with it. A teacher who went through this process noticed right away: planning got easier when she matched activities to the learning stage, instead of treating every lesson as a stand-alone event. Activities didn't have to be brand new—they just had to do the job at that point in the unit.If you're a middle or high school teacher tackling multiple preps, especially if you've been handed a new class with barely any resources, this episode delivers practical teacher tips for bringing order to chaos. The six categories—reuse, adapt, create, find, decide, wait—are your planning lifeline.So, before you build one more worksheet, look at your own unit. Do the sort. See what you can reuse. Decide what can wait. Save your energy for the things that actually move learning forward in your secondary classroom.The smart way is rarely the easiest at first, but it's a hell of a lot lighter in the long run. Don't just survive your prep load—beat it at its own game.You know the drill: rebel against busywork, sort before you build, and don't let classroom planning rent space in your head rent-free. Teach strong.

In follow-up to some thoughtful considerations from our friend Odessa in response to our first Kinship Lab discussion on the Future of the Side B project, we continue the conversation around a potential covenant that could bind this nascent movement together. Our particular focus is on the dynamics and risks of harm (with and without) defined boundaries.This is Part 1, so stay tuned for part 2 in September! (We are taking September off from recording.)One thing we neglected to discuss a little more was a biblical explanation for covenants and how they work in Scripture and for people today. It's super valuable to understand the way that God builds covenant as he brings us into deeper relationship with him. Anyone have a favorite resource on this?

This week on Scream Queens Horror Road Trip Podcast, we hit the road and head to Tulsa, Oklahoma, for a powerful and deeply meaningful visit to the Greenwood Rising Black Wall Street History Center, which honors the history of Tulsa's Greenwood District and remembers the victims and survivors of the 1921 Tulsa Race Massacre.Along the way, we discuss the 2025 horror film Sinners, Ryan Coogler's acclaimed vampire thriller starring Michael B. Jordan. With its themes of Black identity, community, music, generational trauma, and the forces that seek to destroy what people build together, Sinners gave us plenty to talk about as we made our way to Greenwood.It's another Scream Queens road trip where horror, history, culture, and the places we visit all come together. We talk about the film, the history behind Greenwood, what we experienced at Greenwood Rising, and why this particular road trip felt especially important.Hop in the car, turn it up, and come along for the ride.

This episode of The Secondary Teacher Podcast tackles “what happens when planning stops following you home”—a shift every teacher craves.The truth is, teacher planning that lingers in your head all evening isn't a boundary problem—it's a process problem. Host Khristen Massic gets real about how lesson planning for multiple preps can bleed into your home life, even when you're not physically working. It's not just the laptop on your lap; it's the hum of “what's tomorrow supposed to look like?” running in the background.A common mistake? Plugging away on one class, mapping out a whole week or even a unit, and convincing yourself you're ahead—only to get slammed by that “oh no” moment when you realize your other classes are still up in the air. That false sense of security can leave you scrambling at the last minute, stealing time from your family, hobbies, or just your sanity.Khristen Massic paints a vivid contrast between two styles of planning. In version one, your planning hour gets sucked up by blank templates, endless Googling, and “just one more resource” rabbit holes. You close your laptop feeling like you barely made progress. Sounds familiar, right? In version two, you work from a clear structure: you decide what students need to achieve, map out the big pieces, identify what you already have, and pinpoint what can actually wait. That way, the big decisions actually get settled, and your mind gets a rare break.One powerful moment in the episode is Khristen's memory of Netflix “watching”—really, just background noise while lesson tabs filled the screen and no task got full attention. That's a teacher-specific exhaustion, and it only multiplies for those managing multiple preps or teaching electives without a textbook or curriculum team.This episode is gold for any middle or high school teacher who's tired of lesson planning stealing their evenings—especially if you juggle several classes or subjects. Khristen doesn't promise that planning will be quick or effortless, but lays out that the goal is “repeatable, not invented.” You don't need five courses prepped in thirty minutes, but you do need clarity about what's done, what's missing, and what can wait without guilt. That's the difference between always chasing your to-do list and finally being “done” enough for today.With practical teacher tips and a grounded perspective on work life balance, The Secondary Teacher Podcast dares you to look at your own planning routine and ask: what unfinished planning are you carrying every night? Khristen doesn't want you to squeeze more work into your day, but to create more clarity during your planning time—so the work stops following you home. That's how you finish something that makes tomorrow lighter, in the real world of secondary classrooms.Ready to stop letting planning run the show after hours? The revolution starts here.Shut the laptop. Let your brain off the hook. You've got this.

t has been a rough summer weather-wise for so many areas of the U.S. and around the world, from wind to fire to floods.

Your farm has a salary cap. Land and time are finite, and every crop you plant spends some of both. The question isn't "what makes me the most money," it's "what makes me the most money per day it occupies my bed."
