Send us a textPotholes on your private road? That seemingly minor issue could cost you tens of thousands when selling your home. Welcome to an eye-opening exploration of how road maintenance agreements impact property values in ways most homeowners never consider until it's too late.When potential buyers encounter a neglected private road, nearly half will turn around without ever seeing the property. Those brave enough to navigate the obstacle course face another hurdle: mortgage lenders often refuse to finance properties without formal road maintenance agreements. This perfect storm drastically reduces your buyer pool and drives down your selling price.The solution is surprisingly simple and affordable. For just $200-300, an attorney can draft an agreement that protects everyone on your road. The document doesn't necessarily require significant financial commitments—at minimum, it's just a written plan for handling emergencies. But even modest contributions of $50-100 annually per household create a maintenance fund that ensures your road remains passable during storms, snow, or other adverse conditions.Beyond the financial implications, proper road maintenance directly affects your quality of life. Emergency services, deliveries, and visitors all depend on reliable access to your property. Informal arrangements like relying on "neighbor Bob with a tractor" create vulnerability when circumstances change. A formal agreement provides security and peace of mind for current living and future resale.Don't let your property value suffer from this easily-fixed issue. Whether you currently live on a private road or are considering purchasing property on one, understanding road maintenance agreements is essential for protecting your investment. Share this valuable information with neighbors and friends who might benefit—because sometimes the path to higher property values starts with the actual path to your front door.

Mentoring often sounds like the perfect way to steward your time in retirement—until you try it and realize it's not as intuitive as you'd hoped.For many retirees, mentoring seems like a meaningful way to invest in the next generation—a way to put their life experience to work. But what if we've misunderstood how mentoring fits into God's design for this season of life? Jeff Haanen joins us with practical stories and spiritual insight to help us reframe it.Jeff Haanen is an accomplished entrepreneur and the founder of the Denver Institute for Faith & Work. He is the author of An Uncommon Guide to Retirement: Finding God's Purpose for the Next Season of Life and Working from the Inside Out: A Brief Guide to Inner Work That Transforms Our Outer World.Rethinking MentoringRetirement is often marketed as the reward for decades of hard work—a long-awaited season of leisure and personal fulfillment. But what if there's a deeper, richer invitation waiting for us in this chapter of life? What if retirement isn't just about what we get—but what we give?Retirement isn't the end of our calling. It's a fresh opportunity to steward our lives for God's Kingdom in powerful new ways. One of the most meaningful ways we can do that is through mentoring—especially when we reimagine it as intergenerational friendship.Many of us picture mentoring as a formal, structured relationship: scheduled coffee dates where the older offers wisdom and the younger listens. While these settings can be helpful, we've found that mentoring is most fruitful when it grows from an organic, mutual friendship.Rather than casting ourselves as sages who dispense advice, we're invited to be fellow travelers—learning, laughing, sharing, and growing together. Intergenerational friendships emphasize mutual respect, shared experiences, and spiritual growth over time.This vision of mentoring as a form of friendship has deep roots in Scripture. Jesus said to His disciples, “I no longer call you servants… I have called you friends” (John 15:15). The Apostle Paul invested in Timothy, Elijah mentored Elisha, and Naomi walked with Ruth—but in each of these relationships, we find more than just a teacher and a student. We see companions whose hearts were knit together in love and trust.In God's upside-down Kingdom, wisdom flows both ways. The older bring experience and insight; the younger bring hope, energy, and perspective. Together, we become more like Christ.What Makes Mentoring Thrive?Through our own journey and through observing others, we've seen several elements that make these relationships truly flourish:Delight in the Next Generation. Mentoring starts not with duty but with joy. When we find genuine delight in those younger than us—when we enjoy being with them, listening, and learning—we build the foundation for real connection. Affirm Before Advising. Many younger adults are uncertain about their calling or whether they have what it takes. A word of affirmation can be far more powerful than advice. Encouragement builds trust and opens the door to growth. Lead with Vulnerability. We don't need to have it all together. It's our stories of failure and God's faithfulness that often minister most deeply. Humility makes room for healing and hope. Commit for the Long Haul. There's no shortcut to transformation. Mentoring thrives when we're patient and willing to walk alongside someone over time—through victories, setbacks, and seasons of change. Ask Thoughtful Questions. Jesus often asked His disciples powerful, heart-revealing questions. We can do the same. When we help others discover truth for themselves, they take greater ownership of their journey.The local church is a natural place to start. It's one of the few places left in our culture where generations regularly gather. Maybe it's time to simply show up—to attend a young adult gathering, volunteer in youth ministry, or offer to listen and pray for someone younger.Our workplaces also offer opportunities. Even in retirement, we may still have professional wisdom worth sharing. Informal conversations, apprenticeships, or consulting can all create meaningful space for mentorship.Most importantly, we must pray. We've learned to listen—not only to our mentee but to the Holy Spirit. We ask: Lord, what do You want us to say in this moment? How can we best serve this person? Prayer is the lifeblood of all fruitful mentoring relationships.What If Retirement Looked Like This?Imagine if thousands of believers approaching retirement swapped comfort for Kingdom impact. What if instead of isolating ourselves, we stepped into churches and communities, offering our time, wisdom, and presence?We believe that mentoring may be one of the most significant contributions we can make in our later years—not only for the benefit of others, but also for our own joy and growth. As we give ourselves away, we often find our richest reward.So here's the invitation: Start showing up. Start listening. Start sharing your story. And watch what God does through friendship across generations.Help Us Equip Others to Live with PurposeRight now, more people than ever are seeking biblical wisdom to navigate their finances and their calling.

In this practical episode of SLP Coffee Talk, Hallie chats with Dr. Danika Pfeiffer—preschool SLP, assistant professor, and early literacy researcher—about how we can support early writing in young kids, especially those with developmental language disorder (DLD). From understanding why name writing is more about memory than letters, to how SLPs can build in writing practice without adding to their workload, Danika breaks it all down. You'll hear simple ideas, ways to team up with teachers and OTs, and why even small moments of print awareness can go a long way. If you've ever wondered if writing is in your scope, this convo will leave you feeling inspired and ready to dive in—one crayon at a time.Bullet Points to Discuss: Why early writing starts earlier than you think—even in preschoolThe difference between name writing and letter writingHow writing challenges show up in kids with developmental language disorder (DLD)Simple ways to embed writing practice into your existing sessionsWhat SLPs can look for during evaluations—no fancy tools neededBuilding print awareness without overhauling your therapyPartnering with teachers and OTs around early writing supportThe SLP's role in preventing future writing difficultiesMaking early writing doable (and meaningful) for busy SLPsHere's what we learned: Name writing is visual recall—not true letter-sound knowledge.Letter writing is harder and needs explicit, repeated support.Kids with DLD follow typical writing development but at a slower pace.Easy, everyday strategies (like sign-in sheets or labeled items) can build writing skills.Print awareness fits naturally into speech sessions—no overhaul needed.Informal assessments (paper + crayon!) are enough to track early writing.Collaborate with teachers and OTs to target both language and motor skills.Early writing support helps prevent bigger literacy challenges laterLearn more about Dr. Danika Pfeiffer: Website: www.danikapfeiffer.com Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/danikapfeiffer.slp/ LinkedIn: www.linkedin.com/in/danika-pfeiffer Bluesky: https://bsky.app/profile/danikapfeiffer.bsky.social Podcast: https://open.spotify.com/show/444VIuWOxBzZ8fI2hqGyFj Learn more about Hallie Sherman and SLP Elevate:

What makes some leaders magnetic while others struggle to connect? On this riveting episode of Mick Unplugged, communication expert Matt Kohut reveals the surprising secret shared by presidential candidates, Fortune 500 CEOs, and influential speakers he's coached: they're exceptional listeners first, compelling speakers second. Matt breaks down his powerful framework of "strength and warmth" that defines effective leadership communication. Strength—the capability to get things done through competence and assertiveness—must be balanced with warmth—the ability to show you understand others' needs and emotions. Every leader naturally leans toward one quality, but mastering both creates an unbeatable leadership presence. Through practical examples, Matt demonstrates how finding the right balance for your specific context can transform your leadership impact. The conversation takes a fascinating turn as Matt discusses his new book "Speaking Out," exploring when and how corporate leaders should address political and social issues—a modern leadership challenge unheard of in previous generations. He provides a thoughtful framework for navigating these potentially treacherous waters, grounding decisions in organizational values while considering both internal and external stakeholders. Matt and Mick challenge outdated leadership clichés, dismantling the "open door policy" myth (truly present leaders don't need to announce their accessibility) and warning against using complex language that creates distance rather than connection. The most powerful insight? Informal conversations—whether over coffee, meals, or breaks—create the authentic connections that drive organizational success, yet many leaders fail to prioritize these critical moments. Whether you're leading a team of five or five thousand, this conversation delivers actionable strategies to transform how you communicate during chaos, build trust through genuine listening, and speak with the perfect balance of strength and warmth that today's leadership demands.

Connectedness, joy, mindfulness, and the opportunity for informal prayer are all touch on by Rev. Judith Fulp-Eickstaedt (Judith) in this thirty-minute podcast recorded in mid-April. Pastor Judith brings forth the idea that even in difficult times, experiencing joy is important. Joy, as she highlights, comes in several forms from the quiet joy of when observing beauty in nature, to effusive joy of feeling the spark of life at a wedding, baptism, or other event. And Pastor Judith shares, there is another level of joy. It is when, in a quiet and deliberate moment when gratitude is experienced. In this podcast Reverend Judith is interviewed by Rich Long.

Case Interview Preparation & Management Consulting | Strategy | Critical Thinking
For this episode, let's revisit a Case Interview & Management Consulting classic where we discuss consulting firm's training. Too often clients ask the wrong questions when it comes to assessing training at consulting firms: do smaller offices have poorer training, should I attend training as soon as I join, does BCG have better training than Bain etc. When considering training you need to both consider formal and informal training. As we show, formal training is very useful, but not at all for the hard/technical skills it purports to impart on attendees. Informal training, also known as training on an engagement, is most effective when consultants can practice under diverse conditions. In other words, the more you travel and work with foreign teams, the better will be your training. Some firms encourage more global staffing and others far less. That counts.

En entrevista para MVS Noticias con Manuel López San Martín, Eduardo Torreblanca, colaborador de MVS Noticias, habló sobre el incremento del trabajo informal en México, el cual actualmente impacta al 70% de los municipios, según datos oficiales del Instituto Nacional de Estadística y Geografía (INEGI). “El empleo formal debería ser el sostén de una economía porque garantiza condiciones mínimas dignas para los trabajadores y asegura una competencia justa”, afirmó. Sin embargo, el trabajo informal sigue ganando terreno en México, con más del 70% de la población dedicada a actividades no reguladas en la mayoría de los municipios.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Scott Rasband worked 15 years in medical device sales and leadership before transitioning to Chick-fil-A, and has spent the last 10 years operating the Chick-fil-A in Spanish Fork, Utah. In the Church, Scott has served as a Young Men president, elders quorum president, bishopric counselor, and bishop. He is the father of five and currently serves as the bishop of a Young Single Adult ward. Links Share your thoughts in the Leading Saints community Read the transcript of this podcast Get 14-day access to the Core Leader Library Highlights Scott Rasband wears two significant hats: he is both the owner of a Chick-fil-A restaurant in Spanish Fork, Utah, and a YSA bishop. He describes the values instilled by the Cathy family, owners of the Chick-fil-A brand, and how these values shape the experience for both employees and customers. He emphasizes the importance of local ownership and how it fosters a sense of community and connection. Scott talks about "second mile service," a principle derived from Matthew 5:41, which encourages going above and beyond for others. He illustrates this concept with anecdotes from his restaurant—moments that create emotional connections and leave a lasting impression on customers. Scott shares insights into his role as a YSA bishop, where he applies similar leadership principles. He discusses the importance of being present, allowing young adults to lead, and connecting them to a higher purpose. Informal gatherings, like "Straggler Sundays" at his home, foster community and build trust among ward members. Scott's approach to leadership is characterized by vulnerability and accessibility, as he actively reaches out to members through texts and personal interactions. He highlights the significance of mentorship and the power of creating a culture where young adults feel valued and empowered. 00:02:14 - Chick-fil-A Culture and Leadership 00:04:03 - Scott's Background and Experience 00:05:10 - Positive Perspectives on Young Adults 00:06:24 - Connecting Youth to Jesus Christ 00:07:13 - Chick-fil-A's Unique Organizational Culture 00:09:25 - The Importance of Sunday Closure 00:11:22 - Mission to Be the World's Most Caring Company 00:12:22 - Translating Mission Statements into Action 00:13:41 - Servant Leadership in Action 00:14:56 - The Impact of Chick-fil-A's Values 00:16:05 - Local Ownership and Community Impact 00:17:02 - The Role of Personal Connection in Leadership 00:18:10 - Examples of Chick-fil-A's Customer Experience 00:20:10 - Core Four Principles for Employee Interaction 00:22:36 - The Origin of "My Pleasure" 00:23:09 - The Significance of Culture in Organizations 00:24:26 - Retention and Employee Satisfaction 00:25:38 - Patterns of Gathering in the YSA Ward 00:27:44 - Straggler Sunday Concept 00:28:59 - Informal Gatherings and Building Relationships 00:29:20 - Digital Relationships with Ward Members 00:30:48 - The Importance of Availability 00:32:06 - Mentoring and Leadership Development 00:33:11 - Involving Spouses in Ministry 00:34:05 - Creating a Culture of Vulnerability 00:35:09 - The Role of Surprise and Delight 00:36:11 - Letting Young Adults Lead 00:39:29 - Delegating Responsibility in Chick-fil-A 00:40:39 - Building Trust Through Delegation 00:41:26 - Adapting to Change in the YSA Ward 00:42:18 - Embracing New Traditions in Worship The award-winning Leading Saints Podcast is one of the top independent Latter-day Saints podcasts as part of nonprofit Leading Saints' mission to help Latter-day Saints be better prepared to lead.

This week I'm joined by Dr Jan Eppingstall to talk about scaffolding - what it means, how it helps with hoarding recovery, and why our needs for support change over time. We break down practical, emotional, and motivational scaffolding, from therapy and peer support to self-made systems and the way we talk to ourselves. If you've ever wondered how to find the right kind of help without feeling stuck with it forever, this is the episode for you.

Origins in Lev Vygotsky's work: helping people accomplish tasks with support. Relevance to hoarding and recovery. Application of Scaffolding to Hoarding Recovery Psychological, cognitive, and emotional elements in hoarding. Physical and organisational skill deficits in people who hoard. Differences and interplay between psychological barriers and practical skills. Illustrating support levels: from high assistance to independence. Personal examples demonstrating that support needs can resurface over time. The Changing Nature of Scaffolding Scaffolding shifts in form and amount as people progress or encounter setbacks. Individualisation: What's supportive for one may not be for another. Types of Scaffolding for Hoarding Recovery External supports: therapists, peers, coaches. Direct instruction and physical assistance. Environmental modifications. Tools and resources. Social encouragement and accountability. Assessing current functioning. Matching support to challenge level (not too easy, not too hard). Gradually reducing support as independence grows. Scaffolding for Neurodivergent Individuals Adjustments for ADHD: Shorter work periods, built-in breaks. Accountability partners and visual reminders/checklists. Adjustments for Autism: Predictable routines. Clear rules and decision trees. Sensory-friendly environments. Executive Function Challenges and Tailored Scaffolding Strategies like breaking down decisions, using templates, "parking lot" systems for deferred decisions. Recognising that executive function can be context-specific and fluctuate. Importance of Emotional Scaffolding Emotional regulation during dehoarding. Need for self-soothing and distress-tolerance skills as support is reduced. Informal and Internal Scaffolding Peer support, self-talk, problem solving, reminders. Adapting systems in the home as a supportive structure. Habituation and Evolvement of Support Systems Reminder fatigue and strategies to combat it (rotating formats, colours, locations). The necessity for systems to evolve as needs and effectiveness change. Mindset Shifts and Realistic Expectations Acceptance that supports may need to be re-engaged during crises or setbacks. Not viewing return to scaffolding as failure - progress and healing aren't linear. Testing assumptions about personal limitations. Re-evaluating and Customising Support Creating, testing, and modifying practical systems in the home with or without outside perspective. Recognising the value of trying new strategies even if initial skepticism exists.

In this episode of The Consumer Finance Podcast, Chris Willis and Lori Sommerfield discuss the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau's (CFPB) recent withdrawal of more than 60 pieces of informal guidance, focusing on those related to fair lending and unfair, deceptive, or abusive acts or practices (UDAAP) issues. This conversation highlights key pieces of guidance that have been rescinded, including those concerning adverse action notices and abusive practices, in addition to insights on how these developments might influence the CFPB's enforcement priorities moving forward. This episode is part of a series across multiple podcasts from our Consumer Financial Services practice regarding the recent CFPB advisory withdrawals, and their impact in various areas.
What if family wasn't about blood, and elderly care didn't have to come from strangers? On Chinese social media, posts have surfaced about “认干亲养老”—a practice where young people form supportive, contract-like relationships with older adults. It echoes elements of godparenting and elder companionship in the West, but with key differences. Could this be a way to patch the cracks left by shrinking families and limited state support? Maybe—but it also carries serious risks. On the show: Heyang, Bob Jones & Yushun
Tired of sounding like a textbook?

There are those listed above...And then there is my guest for this episode today, courtesy to the serendipity proximate to Arne…Peter, whose full name will remain redacted - is the head of the isolation ward at Kumla prison, which is the largest maximum security prison in Sweden. We recorded this about 6 months ago, so I am very late to publish, but I hope you'll agree that the contents are evergreen. Not tied down to any particular time and news, and therefore as useful now as it would have been then as it will be in 5 years time. Pete and I sat down together to record this one in Stockholm last late Autumn, it's as many ins and outs of the prison system that I could think to ask Peter. This is an exhaustive list, but it includes inmate demographics, the impact of overpopulation, the complexities of rehabilitation, the psychological effects of prison on both inmates and staff. the crucial differences between the Swedish prison system other countries, and how it's portrayed in the media, particularly regarding sentencing and the rehabilitation processes. the challenges of institutionalisation, the dynamics of inmate behaviour. Leadership and de-escalation techniques in managing inmate interactions, as well as the influence of gangs and ethnic divides within the prison system. Informal power dynamics among inmates, the prevalence of violence, self-harm, and the challenges faced by prison officers. The changing attitudes of younger inmates towards authority, the psychological impact of incarceration, and the ongoing issues of contraband and drug addiction. The discussion also touches on the responsibility of prison staff to understand and support inmates, the metrics used to evaluate prison conditions, and the societal perceptions of crime and punishment.In between all that there is as well Peter's good humour and the natural tangents much of that may draw you down…00:00 - Who Is Peter & Intro03:02 Demographics and Overpopulation in Kumla Prison05:51 Crime Types and Inmate Behaviour09:00 Rehabilitation and Sentencing in Sweden11:59 Isolation Units and Mental Health14:48 Challenges of Overpopulation and Violence18:05 Administrative Costs and Efficiency20:56 Psychological Impact of Isolation23:53 Interactions with Inmates27:04 Handling Manipulation and Trust30:00 Sympathy for Inmates and Their Stories32:48 Mental Health and Rehabilitation Challenges35:56 Conclusion and Reflections on the Prison System45:09 The Nature of Work in Prison51:49 Rehabilitation vs. Punishment in Nordic Prisons56:08 Institutionalization and Its Effects01:01:22 De-escalation Techniques in High-Stress Environments01:08:15 Leadership in Correctional Facilities01:16:55 Gang Dynamics in Swedish Prisons01:26:13 Understanding Power Dynamics in Prisons01:29:07 The Reality of Violence in Prisons01:31:34 Addressing Self-Harm and Mental Health Issues01:34:19 The Challenge of Knowing Inmates01:36:34 Evaluating Prison Metrics and Crime Hierarchies01:38:52 Religious Practices and Beliefs in Prisons01:41:01 Changing Dyn

Use of the Sec. 321 de minimis exemption was eliminated for imports from China and Hong Kong on Friday, May 2nd. However, de minimis is still (technically) available for imports of under $800 by one person on one day from all other countries. Although it is unclear how long this will last, given the administration's intent to close that option as soon as “adequate systems” are in place. For more information, listen to today's Two Minutes in Trade.

International organisations have become major players in global affairs, with the European Union standing out as especially powerful. But the EU's decision-making processes often attract sharp criticism: requiring agreement among many states can cause paralysis, while overriding individual states raises concerns about sovereignty. This episode explores a new study that revisits how the EU has historically grappled with this tension, focusing on two pivotal moments—the Luxembourg Compromise of 1966 and the Paris Summit of 1974. The findings challenge long-held assumptions about the (in)effectiveness of decision making in the EU, and offer fresh insights into how the EU really works.Alan Renwick is joined by Dr Jonathan Golub, Associate Professor in the Department of Politics and International Relations at the University of Reading, and our very own Dr Michal Ovádek, Lecturer in European Institutions, Politics and Policy here in the UCL Department of Political Science. Mentioned in this episode:Golub, J. and Ovádek, M. (2024) Informal procedures, institutional change, and EU decision-making: evaluating the effects of the 1974 Paris summit. UCL's Department of Political Science and School of Public Policy offers a uniquely stimulating environment for the study of all fields of politics, including international relations, political theory, human rights, public policy-making and administration. The Department is recognised for its world-class research and policy impact, ranking among the top departments in the UK on both the 2021 Research Excellence Framework and the latest Guardian rankings.
When most of us think about discipleship, we quickly think about a program or programming. That's fine. There's nothing wrong with formal discipleship. But what about all the other ways we disciple others that do not fit neatly into formal discipleship plans? This is the topic of this episode of Salty Believer Unscripted. Josiah Walker and Bryan Catherman discuss the value of both formal and informal discipleship. Copyright 2025. For more information, please visit SaltyBeliever.com.

How to craft communication that your audience will remember.Why do some messages stick, while others go in one ear and out the other? When it comes to crafting memorable communication, Ada Aka says not all verbiage is created equal. “Certain words are intrinsically more memorable than others,” says Aka, an assistant professor of marketing at Stanford Graduate School of Business. In her research of consumer behavior and decision-making, she's uncovered how language shapes not just our perception of the world, “but how the world stays with us over time." From concrete terms to emotionally charged ones, certain words have more staying power than others, and to communicators who want to capture audiences (and keep them), she says, “Carefully chosen words, they're going to be taking the attention.”In this episode of Think Fast, Talk Smart, Aka joins Matt Abrahams to explore the science of memorable communication. From creating brand slogans that stick to choosing words that align with your message, she reveals how to create communication that won't be forgotten.Episode Reference Links:Ada AkaEp.80 Magic Words: Change What You Say to Inspire and Influence Others 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 >>> LinkedInChapters:(00:00) - Introduction (02:05) - The Power of Words in Memory (03:45) - What Makes Words Memorable?
