As the back-to-school season ramps up, we’re revisiting one of the most timely and practical conversations of the year—with a refreshed edition of a listener favorite! This week kicks off a two-part series all about the back-to-school shopping experience. But instead of just ticking off the supply list, what if you used this annual tradition as a powerful teaching moment? In this refreshed replay, I’ll help you turn those shopping trips into an opportunity to build lifelong financial wisdom in your children—grounded in biblical stewardship. In this episode, John discusses: Teaching kids financial wisdom through back-to-school shopping The importance of parental influence on children’s financial habits Using biblical principles to teach kids about money Actionable tips for parents to instill money-savvy behavior in their children Key Takeaways: As parents, back-to-school shopping is a natural opportunity to instill biblical principles and practical money habits that will shape your children’s financial behavior for life. Studies show that parents are the biggest influence on their children’s money habits. Your kids are watching—so use your own financial behavior to model wise choices and faithful stewardship. Teaching kids about money takes time, patience, and repetition. It’s not about one big conversation—it’s about consistently demonstrating the values you want to pass on. Try using the “Show, Tell, Point” approach to walk your kids through budgeting, understanding needs vs. wants, comparison shopping, involving them in choices, and practicing delayed gratification. Each of these teaches a deeper financial lesson—rooted in both wisdom and faith. “There is no better time of year than back-to-school shopping to illustrate some of the core biblical principles and practical money habits that you want to see in your children.”  CLICK ON THE LINKS BELOW FOR MORE MONEY MADE FAITHFUL!

In this episode of the Art of the Session series, I focus on one of the most foundational yet misunderstood CCPT skills: tracking behavior. I explain what it is, when to use it, and why it matters—even when it seems like “nothing is happening” in the playroom. I walk through examples of how to track behavior using simple, child-centered language, and I break down the structure of an effective tracking response. This episode is full of reminders about staying present, engaged, and adherent to the model, even during quiet or ambiguous moments in session. I also talk about the importance of remaining verbally active throughout the play session, even if you're not physically participating in the play. Tracking behavior helps the child feel seen without feeling watched, which protects the therapeutic relationship and keeps us aligned with the CCPT model. Whether you're a new or seasoned therapist, this episode reinforces the idea that mastering the basics—especially tracking—is essential to doing great work.

Today's episode is a must listen! Bethany tackles a subject that is near and dear to her heart – perspective/vantage points. She preaches an important thought to both her kids and her clients – at times, our perspective could be completely changed with just a simple step to the right or left. She references those mind-blowing photos that would be completely “normal” with taking the photo from a different vantage point (see link below). In this episode, she talks through several team and patient challenges that could be supported and improved with a slightly different vantage point.   Bethany references this link “18 Photos that Aren't Really What They Seem.” https://www.buzzfeed.com/hanifahrahman/confusing-pictures Previous Episodes Worth Revisiting: Appreciation Leads to Generosity How to Respond to Angry and Unhappy Patients

According to CDK Global's EV Ownership Study, more EVs are hitting the service lane — and owners are increasingly frustrated with the experience.Q2 EV sales rose nearly 5% over Q1; first-half total reached a record 607,000+ units.Only 28% of EV owners reported same-day service in 2024 — down from 40% in 2023.85% of new EV owners needed dealership service in year one, often for recalls or minor repairs.Multiple visits are becoming common: 34% of non-Tesla owners said service took longer than for gas vehicles, with 21% saying it took 4 visits or more.Our friend David Thomas of CDK: “We know dealers are prepared for EV service, but these numbers getting worse is not a good sign as more non-Tesla EVs are on the road than ever before.”Honda is taking a big step into the insurance space with the launch of Honda Insurance Solutions — a licensed agency designed to offer customers competitive, convenient coverage as part of the overall ownership experience.Available in all 50 states, the platform provides quotes from top carriers via VIU by HUB, omnichannel insurance brokerage platform backed by one of the largest personal insurance brokers, Hub InternationalCustomers can shop for coverage on autos, RVs, motorcycles, and even homes.An OEM parts coverage option helps protect vehicle value by using only Honda and Acura Genuine Parts.Future plans include full integration into Honda and Acura's digital sales ecosystem.Petar Vucurevic, President of American Honda Insurance Solutions: “Insurance is a key touchpoint in the vehicle ownership journey... promoting safer driving and increased peace of mind.”Walmart is doubling down on its AI transformation with the rollout of Sparky, a next-gen digital shopping agent set to replace traditional search. The move marks the retail giant's most aggressive bet yet on an AI-first future.Sparky will handle everything from grocery reorders to furnishing entire apartments based on budget and preferences.The new interface will be multimodal—supporting voice, images, and video—to mirror natural human shopping behaviors and eliminate the need for keyword searches.Walmart's AI framework includes four agents: Sparky (customers), Marty (suppliers/advertisers), an associate agent, and a developer agent.Join Paul J Daly and Kyle Mountsier every morning for the Automotive State of the Union podcast as they connect the dots across car dealerships, retail trends, emerging tech like AI, and cultural shifts—bringing clarity, speed, and people-first insight to automotive leaders navigating a rapidly changing industry.Get the Daily Push Back email at https://www.asotu.com/ JOIN the conversation on LinkedIn at: https://www.linkedin.com/company/asotu/

In this episode, I respond to a question from Crystal, a school-based clinician in Minnesota, about how to end sessions when a child is emotionally dysregulated. Especially in settings like schools, where transitions can be abrupt and expectations are high, it can be tricky to support a child who's deeply engaged in therapeutic work but needs to return to class. I walk through the importance of a decompression process and share how we build transition time into our sessions through rituals like handwashing and snack choices. I also talk about clinical judgment—recognizing when a child might need a few extra minutes or a gentler route back into their day—and how we can advocate with caregivers and teachers to protect that emotional space. If you've ever faced the challenge of ending a session while a child is still “in it,” this episode offers validation, strategy, and a clear CCPT-aligned approach.

The news cycle never slows down and neither does Hub Hits. Each day we provide you with quick hits on topical stories, big issues and important voices appearing in The Hub, taped live. Globe and Mail columnist Andrew Coyne reflects on George Grant's Lament for a Nation, 60 years later. He questions the value of cultural protectionism, pushes back on fears of American influence, and makes the case for a confident, civic-minded Canadian nationalism rooted in shared values—not just difference. This year marks the 60th anniversary of Canadian philosopher George Grant's Lament for a Nation: The Defeat of Canadian Nationalism, a seminal work that reshaped Canadian political discourse. Published in 1965, Grant's critique of American cultural dominance and technological modernity challenged Canadians to reconsider their national sovereignty and identity. To mark the occasion, this summer, The Hub will feature a series of essays and podcasts from big thinkers exploring the book's enduring legacy and how its insights remain vital to understanding Canada and its relationship with the United States today.

Hello Grab a pillow and lay down. Drift off. Allow yourself to dream. Such overt direction wouldn't normally feature in a Thoroughly Good Podcast introduction, but its fitting for this one with pianist Hanni Liang who, ever the experimenter with concert formats, tests out an element of her forthcoming Edinburgh Festival appearance on me in a bit of a podcast first. Liang combines a performance of Debussy Reverie with audience-led improvisation at The Hub as part of Edinburgh International Festival this year, inviting people to share their dreams so that she can improvise on the ideas that emerge from it. She does the same here with me. It's only really since recording this that I've come to understand what my recurring dream really is about - in its simplest terms its to do with the panic of time running out. And now, having understood that, it is phenomenally disappointing to realise I've been having this same dream for as long as I can remember. Even so, I've not had it since recording this episode. There is then a therapeutic impact to Hanni's work. More than that, Hanni's candid reflections on the experience of improvisation isn't that far from a theme stitched through recent episodes - leadership qualities, and specifically in this case, the need for and the experience of vulnerability.

Magnus is disappointed. James is busy and can't take him out to try his ‘superflyer' kite that Magnus has made from a broken umbrella. Suki is admiring the kite as Mack passes, and offers to take Magnus to the beach to try to fly it. Magnus is delighted. At the beach they try to launch and fly the kite several times, but each time the kite just falls to the ground. Mack thinks there's a problem with the design of the kite. Magnus is despondent, but Mack tells him that when he used to make kites he was not always successful first time. Sometimes he needed to change his design, and maybe that's what Magnus needs to do. They try to fly the kite one last time with disastrous consequences. Magnus asks if Mack will take him back to the Hub and help him re-think it. Mack agrees. They return to the beach with the new kite, proving that you don't always get things right first time.

In this episode of Alberta Edge, host Ryan Hastman flips the separatist debate on its head with Canada West Foundation CEO Gary Mar and University of Alberta political scientist Jared Wesley. They dive into what Alberta would have to negotiate: from rewriting treaties with Indigenous peoples to demanding access to tidewater, control over immigration, and a fairer deal on resources.

Over 6,500 SMEs have been directly supported by the all-of-Government National Enterprise Hub (NEH) in the first 12 months since its launch. The top grants availed of by businesses ranged in value from €3,000 to €7,000 and focused on supporting businesses with cashflow, expansion and productivity to help them deal with concerns around rising costs, and competitiveness. The National Enterprise Hub has attracted over 220,000 active online users to its website over the last 12 months and also offers a full-time dedicated phone line, connecting business owners with specialist advisors who can discuss potential grant options over the phone. The National Enterprise Hub, an initiative of the Department of Enterprise, Tourism and Employment and Enterprise Ireland, brings together information and resources on over 250 Government supports from 30 different Departments and State Agencies. Looking ahead, there will be a continued and renewed focus on simplifying business grant applications for SMEs engaging with the National Enterprise Hub. The businesses are from a range of industries however the majority fall within Tourism & Hospitality, retail & consumer products, food, health & beauty, professional services and the construction sector. This free service makes it easier and more efficient for businesses to access and avail of supports such as grants, funding, loans and expert advice across a range of sectors. Minister for Enterprise, Tourism and Employment, Peter Burke, said, "With over 6,500 companies engaging in its first 12 months, the National Enterprise Hub has proven effective in streamlining and simplifying access for SMEs to government supports, equipping them with vital digital and sustainability resources to navigate rising costs and stay competitive. Research from my Department shows that four in five businesses believe sustainability is important. An awareness campaign is currently underway showcasing how the NEH can support businesses in cutting costs through grants such as the LEO's Energy Efficiency Grant and SEAI's Business Energy Upgrade Scheme. My focus now with the NEH is on reducing administrative burdens and red tape for businesses by consolidating multiple grant applications into a single, simplified process. We must redouble our efforts to simplify processes for businesses and make sure that we think about small businesses first. I look forward to its continued growth and positive impact on Irish SMEs." Conor O'Donovan, Head of Start-Ups and the National Enterprise Hub, said: "SME engagement with the National Enterprise Hub has met and exceeded our targets to date, supporting 6,500 businesses within our first year of operation. One of the main aims of the Hub was to engage with businesses who haven't availed of government supports to date and to make the process of availing of government supports faster and easier." "We know that Irish SMEs are operating in a complex environment and being able to access grants and supports is more important than ever. Small businesses who are engaging with the National Enterprise Hub are concerned about rising cost of business and competitiveness - that is why a single source of government supports for businesses is important to ensure that accessing the right information is made easier. The National Enterprise Hub has a team of dedicated advisors who are directing SMEs to the right support that will help them. It's for every business in the country and we'd encourage every business to go online to neh.gov.ie or pick up the phone and start the conversation around your business needs today." Audrey Hughes, CEO of Principle HR, said: "Like so many Irish SMEs, we are focused on providing the highest quality of service delivery to our customers, while remaining competitive. Accessing government supports to assist can feel daunting but the National Enterprise Hub made the process so much easier by putting us in contact with the right agency whose support and expertise fitted our n...

Ever wondered why money conversations can feel so tense? You’re not alone… It often comes down to how your natural Money MOs (short for 'modus operandi') interact—with each other, or with your bigger goals. In this refreshed replay of part two in our Money MO series, we’re digging deeper into how awareness of your unique financial wiring can be a powerful step toward unity, peace, and purpose in your money decisions. This episode is about moving past the friction and into greater clarity, confidence, and connection—with each other and with God’s greater story for your life. In this episode, John discusses: Creating financial harmony in your relationships Building stronger marriages through meaningful money conversations Celebrating the uniqueness of your Money MO as a path to spiritual growth Applying your MO to build wise, aligned, and peaceful stewardship Key Takeaways: Your Money MO—whether you’re a spender, saver, investor, planner, or giver—isn’t about right or wrong; it’s about recognizing how you’re wired and using that awareness to move forward with more intention, alignment, and purpose in your financial decisions. When you start to see how your MO either blends beautifully or clashes with someone else’s, you open the door to more thoughtful conversations, less misunderstanding, and a shared path toward peace and partnership in money matters. Making space to meet regularly, speak honestly, and pray together around your finances is one of the most practical and powerful ways to reshape your habits, reduce conflict, and build a stronger foundation of trust and connection. Ephesians 4:11–16 reminds us that unity and maturity are part of our calling in Christ—and when your financial decisions are made through that lens, even money becomes a way to grow in faith, strengthen relationships, and reflect God’s greater purpose. “When you are pursuing wise and faithful stewardship through prayer about being a part of God's larger story, your differences can be strengths when they're joined together in faith and wisdom.”    CLICK ON THE LINKS BELOW FOR MORE MONEY MADE FAITHFUL!   VISIT MONEY MADE FAITHFUL: https://moneymadefaithful.com/   GET FREE RESOURCES when you join THE HUB: https://moneymadefaithful.com/resource-library-access/Landing-page   BOOK A WORKSHOP & DETAILS: https://moneymadefaithful.com/money-made-faithful-workshop-2/Landing-page   INVITE JOHN TO SPEAK at your conference, church, or event:  https://moneymadefaithful.com/services   SPECIAL SAVINGS ON JOHN'S BOOK, 'He Spends She Spends' and the small group guide: https://moneymadefaithful.com/shop   FOLLOW US ON FACEBOOK: @MoneyMadeFaithful   FOLLOW US ON INSTAGRAM: @MoneyMadeFaithful   If this blessed you today, please Subscribe, Leave a Review, and Share with someone who you believe will benefit from this message!

In this Art of the Session episode, I walk through one of the most empowering and clarifying truths about CCPT: there's a finite list of responses we use in session—and mastering those is enough. I outline what I consider to be the 11 foundational responses we pull from when working with children in the playroom, including the reflective responses, the four pillars, and several secondary but essential techniques like “I wonder” statements and narrative commentary. Rather than feeling overwhelmed or unsure about what to say, this episode is meant to lift the pressure off and help you anchor yourself in the structure and simplicity of the model. When you're truly practicing CCPT, you're not guessing or winging it—you're selecting intentionally from a consistent, skillful set of responses that uphold the relationship and give children the space to heal. If you've ever felt uncertain in session, this episode is your reminder: You already have everything you need. You just have to stay within the framework.

In this episode, I answer a unique and surprisingly common question from Zoe in Texas: what do you do when a child in CCPT is consistently farting in session—and seems to be doing it on purpose? We unpack how repetitive, attention-seeking behaviors like this often reflect deeper needs for control, power, and emotional regulation, especially in children with adoption histories or on the autism spectrum. I walk through why these behaviors don't automatically warrant a limit, how neutrality and reflective responding can actually reduce the behavior over time, and when a safety- or property-related limit might be appropriate. I also explore how even seemingly silly or irritating patterns in the playroom reveal important themes in a child's process—and why unconditional acceptance and patience are essential as the child moves toward self-regulation and growth.

On today's episode of the Candice Malcolm Show, Candice discusses why she is homeschooling her young children and why she prioritizes getting them outside to play in nature. Candice is then joined by Ginny Roth, a partner at Crestview Strategy and Pierre Poilievre's former Director of Communications. Ginny talks about her new op/ed in the Hub discussing the need for school choice in Ontario. According to her research, enrolment in Ontario public schools has only increased by 1.2% over the past decade, compared to a 22% increase in independent schools during that same period – despite the province offering no support to parents who make this decision. Candice outlines the total woke takeover of education in Ontario – the poisonous gender ideology, the hateful critical race theory, the radical climate catastrophe crowd, and the perverse cultural relativism – and discusses how Canadians oppose these radical measures in schools. Ginny adds that rigorous math and phonics lessons are also being removed from some schools, and that children are not being adequately prepared for their future. Why has this happened? Candice asks point blank: How has this happened under a so-called “conservative” government? Ginny gives the best explanation to date about the institutional takeover by extreme activists, and the lack of political will inside the Ford government to push back. Next, they discuss the disturbing rise in anti-Jewish hatred in Canadian schools, which is causing many Jewish families to leave Canada. When Jews are fleeing your country because of rampant, institutionalized intimidation, you know you have a real problem. Candice and Ginny discuss this problem and what can be done to combat it.

Money is more than math—it’s deeply personal. And for many of us, it’s also deeply patterned. In this refreshed replay of a listener favorite, we revisit a conversation that continues to resonate across seasons: understanding your “Money MO.” Your money MO—short for modus operandi—is the natural way you approach money, shaped by your upbringing, personality, and experiences. Whether you're a spender, saver, investor, planner, or giver, your MO shows up around every financial decision you make. In this first part of a two-part series, we unpack the five core Money MOs and why identifying yours (and those around you) can shift the way you manage money—and relationships. In this episode, John discusses:  What a “Money MO” is and why it matters Five distinct Money MOs and how they show up in real life The strengths and struggles of each MO How your financial tendencies impact your relationships and your faith journey Key Takeaways: Your Money MO is a deeply rooted pattern that influences how you think about, interact with, and make decisions around money, often without even realizing it. Gaining clarity about your financial tendencies can transform how you communicate and collaborate with others, especially within marriage or close relationships. Each MO carries both strengths and struggles, and recognizing these dynamics allows you to steward your financial behavior with more wisdom, grace, and intention. When surrendered within God’s bigger story, your Money MO becomes more than just a habit—it becomes a tool for spiritual growth, deeper connection, and faithful stewardship. “The goal here is not to make you into the same person, but to be the person you were made to be with your Money MOs, to have them be surrendered into the context of God's larger story.”   CLICK ON THE LINKS BELOW FOR MORE MONEY MADE FAITHFUL!   VISIT MONEY MADE FAITHFUL: https://moneymadefaithful.com/ GET FREE RESOURCES when you join THE HUB: https://moneymadefaithful.com/resource-library-access/Landing-page   BOOK A WORKSHOP & DETAILS: https://moneymadefaithful.com/money-made-faithful-workshop-2/Landing-page   INVITE JOHN TO SPEAK at your conference, church, or event:  https://moneymadefaithful.com/services   SPECIAL SAVINGS ON JOHN'S BOOK, 'He Spends She Spends' and the small group guide: https://moneymadefaithful.com/shop   FOLLOW US ON FACEBOOK: @MoneyMadeFaithful   FOLLOW US ON INSTAGRAM: @MoneyMadeFaithful   If this blessed you today, please Subscribe, Leave a Review, and Share with someone who you believe will benefit from this message!
