One of the absolutely, positively MOST important qualities that you can encourage in your child (or any child that you know or work with) is high self-esteem.  A deep feeling of confidence and self-esteem will last a lifetime and help a child weather life's storms with the strength to keep going.   Helping a child develop self-esteem does not need to be a grand, extravagant gesture. More effective are frequent small words, actions, and experiences that encourage positive feelings and real confidence.  In Rebecca's not-too-serious but still informative tone, she gives loads of ideas to adults for ways that they can help children feel more confident and develop self-esteem to last.  Spread the positivity.   Follow us on Instagram or Twitter at parentingaaah.   Email with questions or topic ideas to parentingaaah@yahoo.com or leave a voicemail at 650-880-1155.

“Understudy” premiered on April 9th, 2012. It was written by Jerome Hairston, and directed by Adam Dernstein. The viewership dipped yet again from the previous week, premiering to an audience of 5.99 million viewers. Songs this week featured one cover of Kelly Clarkson’s “Breakaway” and two original songs by Marc Shaiman and Scott Whitman: a sort of reprise of Marilyn’s very first song in the series, but this time Katherine McPhee singing “Never Give All the Heart,” and a new song featuring stand-in Christian Borle called “Don’t Say Yes Until I Finish Talking.” The episode opens with a room of cast, creatives and investors waiting to start a reading of the Bombshell script. Waiting, that is, on Hollywood star Rebecca Duvall - who misses playing Marilyn in the reading because she’s stuck in Cuba. In Rebecca’s absence, Tom, Julia and Derek come to Karen telling her that “they want her to understudy Marilyn.” Many of her ensemblist cohorts giggle with Karen excitedly, but Bobby and Sam note that “she’s never going to hack it - especially after Ivy breaks her kneecaps.” Ivy is furious that Karen has been given the job, even when Derek tells her that her outburst at Heaven on Earth means he can’t “even hire her for the chorus.” Derek verbally assaults Karen in rehearsal, which causes Bobby and Jessica and place bets on whether Karen will cry. Later at her apartment, Ivy shows a moment of kindness and advises Derek that “the only directors that were ever successful with Marilyn were the ones who babied her.” She continues her rebranding campaign, joining Karen and the ensemblists of Bombshell for appletinis after rehearsal and bringing her once-rival a pair of Monroe-inspired sunglasses.  Back in rehearsal, Derek calls the cast to run “the Zanuck number” about Darryl R. Zanuck, producer of All About Eve and The Grapes of Wrath. When Derek asks “Where is Zanuck?,” Tom replies “You don’t want to know, but I’m standing in today.” The steam room-inspired number is performed full out by Manuel Herrera, Curtis Holbrook, Keith Kuhl, Spencer Liff, Leslie Odom, Jr., J. Manuel Santos, Phillip Spaeth and Wesley Taylor, One run through seems to be good enough, as Derek gives no notes and quickly moves on to Karen to guide her with kindness. When Rebecca Duvall’s return is imminent, Derek shows up at Karen’s apartment to thank her for her good work. Not only that - he apologizes to Karen for his behavior back in the pilot episode. When Karen’s boyfriend Dev sees Derek walking out of their building, the two men get into a sidewalk fist fight. Dev floats the idea that she quit the show to avoid Derek. She argues back, telling Dev “Marilyn is everything I came to this city to do - everything that I want to be.” She goes to rehearsal the next day, covering the role of Marilyn until Rebecca Duvall shows (played by real life star Uma Thurman!)

Human trafficking is a massive, worldwide problem. It's estimated that 20-40 million people are victims of this form for modern slavery, and our communities are not exempt. Today I welcome survivor Rebecca Bender to share her harrowing journey from being human trafficked for nearly six years to now helping other survivors escape + rebuild their lives. In Rebecca's story, you're going to hear what she's been through, what she learned along the way and most importantly that you're not defined by what you've been through.  My friends, today's conversation is incredibly emotional, important and timely. Human trafficking, specifically sex trafficking is a topic we seldom talk or think about, but one that's happening, quietly, all around us. SHOW NOTES: Rebecca grew up in the Pacific Northwest as a typical  "small-town farm kid" until her parents divorced when her father became an alcoholic and her mother became involved in a series of unhealthy relationships. Wanted + engaged: In high school, Rebecca was not considered "at-risk" because she was a varsity athlete and even graduated high school as a junior. Unexpectedly, Rebecca became a teen mom, pivoting from attending Oregon State University to staying in her small town for community college.   "It was all a trick." Rebecca moved to Las Vegas with her boyfriend where immediately their relationship drastically changed.  "You think your situation is different the whole time until you meet other girls just like you." Power + control wheel: Rebecca refers to domestic human trafficking as a mixture of domestic violence, cult-like behavior, and prostitution.  "If you give me the same amount of time you gave the enemy, I will never be outdone." Rebecca's advice for anyone feeling hopeless: There is nothing that you have been through or done that can't be undone and redone. Redemption is available for everyone; start today.  Have grace for yourself and others. "I want people to know they are more than what they've been through." After Rebecca escaped, she created Elevate Academy and has helped hundreds of survivors of the commercial sex trade industry by providing resources to explore new careers and professional development. Learn more about Elevate Academy here. "There are 25 different forms of human trafficking and it's happening in every community in America." Today, Rebecca is married with four daughters and through the Rebecca Bender Initiative, works with law enforcement, FBI, Homeland Security and aftercare programs to provide expert testimony, trainings and consultation across the globe.

Jakes. 2. What is a characteristic or trait that you possessed as a child that you wish you still exhibited today? Innocence and trust. I wish I walked into situations almost more expecting the good. 3. Your house is on fire, all living things and people are out. You have the opportunity to run in and grab one item. What would it be? The Bible from when I got saved 17 years ago. It has every note and every promise God has ever given me, highlighted and dated. 4. You are sitting on a bench overlooking a gorgeous beach. You have the opportunity to have a long conversation with anyone living or dead. Who would it be? Martin Luther King Jr. and I'd ask how he got through the pressure, how he radically changed a nation, where did he start... I have so many questions! 6. What advice would you give your 20-year-old self? "Run now, you can do it." If I couldn't run, I'd say, "It's going to be okay. You're going to be okay. Your daughter is going to be okay. You're going to get through this." 7. It’s been said that all great people can have their lives summed up in one sentence. How do you want yours to read? Against all odds, I will shine. *** Did you enjoy today’s episode? Subscribe, rate + review on Apple Podcasts!

This week, Rebecca Sutherns is joining your host, Dan Neumann, on the Agile Coaches’ Corner Podcast! Rebecca Sutherns is a strong strategic analyst and Certified Professional Facilitator, trained in numerous facilitation methodologies. She has conducted community consultations, strategic planning, research and evaluation exercises for a range of clients in Canada and internationally. She is an Instructor of a Facilitation Skills course within the Conflict Management Diploma program at the University of Waterloo, the CEO of Sage Solutions (where she bring her expertise as a professional facilitator to help purpose-driven leaders align what’s important to them with what they actually do), and the author of her new book, Nimble: A Coaching Guide for Responsive Facilitation.   In this episode, Rebecca and Dan are focusing on all things related to nimble facilitation! Though her background is not in Agility, her insights around nimble facilitation greatly align with the Agile value of “responding to change over following a plan,” and apply to what Agile coaches do daily.   Tune in to get Rebecca’s insights on what facilitation is, what separates a good facilitator from an average one, how to bring a meeting back on track through nimble facilitation, what facilitation should look like after a meeting, her tips for creating psychological safety, and all about her new book, Nimble, and the key lessons about facilitation from there as well!   Key Takeaways What is facilitation? Giving people a structure by which to get things done as a group What separates a good facilitator from an average one? A good facilitator is someone who can adjust in real time to what’s going on in the room The ability to respond to change over following a plan Knowing yourself well and knowing how you work under pressure By not being the “Oblivious Facilitator” (Example: If you’re not going to adjust based on the feedback that the group is giving you, don’t ask for the feedback) How to bring a meeting back on track through nimble facilitation: Set expectations at the beginning (both in your own head and for the group) about what constitutes being on and off track Understand that things will go differently than you thought Give people starting and end times but not detailed agendas (because that can stress some people out) Plan for multiple scenarios Break down your main objective into smaller objectives What should facilitation look like after a meeting? Ask yourself how it went and how do you know how it went Follow-up with people whose opinion matter to you Become a reflective practitioner and update your plans In Rebecca’s book, Nimble, facilitation is broken down into these three phases: In advance: Anticipation In the room: Agility Afterward: Absorption And below that, there are four facets to each of those phases: People, Purpose, Place, and Process Rebecca’s pro facilitation tips: Good process and good facilitation is the best antidote to a heckler or nay-sayer Part of skillful facilitation is self-regulation and having the mental discipline to not let distractions bother you Always have your plan A, B, C, D, etc. ready to go Do whatever prepping you need prior to the meeting to make yourself the most relaxed that you can possibly be Rebecca’s tips for establishing psychological safety: As a facilitator, give roughly equal airtime (because if only one or two people dominate, others may feel like they don’t have space) Set norms for respectful behavior Make your shared purpose very explicit Let people put their own thoughts up on the board or ask for clarification; don’t edit their words   Mentioned in this Episode: Rebecca Sutherns Sage Solutions Nimble: A Coaching Guide for Responsive Facilitation, by Rebecca Sutherns The Fearless Organization: Creating Psychological Safety in the Workplace for Learning, Innovation, and Growth, by Amy C.

Hatched at Home-Midwife Carrie LaChapelle: www.hatchedathome.com https://www.facebook.com/MidwifeCarrieLachapelleLMCPM/ 864-907-6363   Stephanie Sibbio's Glowing Mama To Be Course: https://glowing-mama-courses.thinkific.com/  (15% off with the code: happyhomebirth15 ) Instagram: stephsibbiofitness   Mama Moon Birth Photography: www.mamamoonbirthstories.com Instagram: mamamoon.birthphotography     What motivates you to share your story?  In Rebecca's case, she knew that she couldn't be the only one who struggled to conceive.  She and her husband tried to become pregnant for several years before putting away the idea and beginning to consider adoption.  To say that they were surprised several months later when Rebecca became pregnant would be an understatement.  In this episode, Rebecca reveals her struggle, her faith, and her eventual success.  She shares her story to provide comfort to those who, like her, have experienced deep hurt over infertility.    Show Notes -Rebecca and her husband were married in 2013 -Because they were 34 and 35, they both thought it would be possible that they could struggle with becoming pregnant, so they began trying soon after their marriage. -Rebecca discusses the incredible discomfort after getting off her birth control- she likens it to going through withdrawals.  Her body was acting as though it was pregnant when she knew she was not. -She discusses the grief and pain she felt as all of the newlywed couples around her so easily go pregnant, while she and her husband struggled and received the news that IVF was going to be their best option. -Rebecca says she learned that she had to trust the Lord, and he took her to a place where in December of 2015, she remembers realize her self-worth was not tied up in motherhood, her career, or even womanhood.  Rather, her self-worth was completely tied up in God. -She remembers making a facebook post on December 12, 2015 stating that she had peace and had come to terms with her journey…. And exactly one year from that date, December 12, 2016 Rebecca gave birth to her first son. -At that point (Dec 2015), they had decided that they were going to stop trying and pursue adoption. -In April of 2016 Rebecca returned from a conference feeling rather “crummy.”  She assumed she had picked some type of bug up on the trip.  Her nursing coworkers begged her to take a pregnancy test.  She finally did, and it was positive! -“I choose to speak about the infertility, because so many women feel like they’re alone, and feel like they’re the only one walking this path…. And they’re not.” -Rebecca was seeing an OB at the time, but decided to switch to a homebirth midwife.  She connected very deeply with her midwife and had an amazing prenatal experience -Labor, however did not go according to plan: She went into labor around 10:00 on a Friday night.  By 3:00 am, everything had stopped.  Contractions were completely gone.  This lasted all day Saturday and into Sunday afternoon.  She did everything she could to get labor to progress: Walking, birthing ball, position changes… nothing would get contractions to come back consistently. -On Sunday afternoon, Rebecca decided she needed to get out of the house and walk (in the freezing cold!!). -By 11:30pm on Sunday night, Rebecca was at 8 cm.  After hitting 8 cm, she once again would not progress.  -By 9:00 am, Rebecca’s midwife mentioned to her that it might be time to head to the hospital to receive some rest with an epidural, and Rebecca agreed. -She went to the hospital, received the epidural, was able to sleep for several hours, and then was able to push her baby out by 6:00 that evening. -With her second child, she found out that she was pregnant in a very interesting way!  After having a fall through a step in her house, she began taking Motrin for the pain. A few days in, she had the random thought, “Maybe I shouldn’t be taking this Motrin… Maybe I should take a pregnancy test.” No other symptoms, yet the test came back positive! - For their second birth, Rebecca’s mother came over in the morning to pick up her 2-year-old, as she keeps him while Rebecca works.  -At 7:30 am Rebecca was having small contractions that were irregular and not very timeable.  This continued until about 2:00 pm. -At 2:00 contractions quickly began to become consistent, longer, stronger and closer together. -With things suddenly moving so quickly, Rebecca was worried her midwife might not make it!  When she heard her midwife’s voice in the house, she was completely relieved and ready. -Within 10 minutes, Rebecca had the baby! -She had no tearing, no complications, and Donovan was wide awake and crying when he was born. -“I was on such a high after it was all over—that I had done it—completely at home, completely unmedicated.” -Her second birth was 11 hours, start to finish. -When describing the emotions after she gave birth, Rebecca says, “it was both powerful and euphoric all at the same time.” -Rebecca and her midwife laugh about the fact that they’ve had the birth pool set up twice and never used it… this time she gave birth on the couch! -When commenting on her story, particularly with infertility, Rebecca says, “There is power in knowing that you’re not alone.”   Episode Round-up: Have faith in the hard times Sharing your story, even the struggle, removes the crippling grip of isolation and builds stronger communal bonds Open communication and trust in your care provider are key to a successful birth

In Rebecca's first episode, she introduces Ashley and Tiffany to Dr. James Barry. As they nervously drink wine, the ladies wonder who this doctor is, why he is important, and what all this buggering is about.

This week’s conversation is with Rebecca Rothstein, a private wealth advisor focused on helping high-net-worth individuals, families and institutions pursue their financial goals through wealth management, tax minimization strategies and legacy planning services.In 2017, Forbes named Rebecca one of “America's Top Wealth Advisors" and this year recognized her as the #1 “Top Women’s Wealth Advisor.”What stands out in this conversation is while Rebecca’s area of expertise may appear on the surface to be wealth management, her true gift is her ability to build relationships with her clients, her team, and her family.One of Rebecca's key indicators for success is maintaining a high retention rate -- which she has.When I asked her why her client retention was so high, it of course came down to quality relationships: her ability to listen, communicate, and develop trust with her clients.In Rebecca’s words, “The most important thing that you learn when you’re taking on someone’s money, is that you have to make them explain to you what their point of view is and not give them your point of view.”I think you’ll notice some parallels between Rebecca’s relationship-oriented approach to business and successful coaches that have previously come on the podcast such as Pete Carroll, Luke Walton, and Shaka Smart.This episode is brought to you by WHOOP and Athletic Greens.WHOOP: Starting today you can join WHOOP for $30 a month, six month minimum to begin.
