The Body Positive Community was a saving grace for me for several years. It helped me find peace and freedom and hope in moving away from being diet addicted and body obsessed. But, it also became another space where there were rules to follow and right and wrong ways to be body positive. Following the body positive “rules” blindly felt good, until they didn't. I had to do some work around what being body positive meant to me. And how could I be body positive and *still* want to lose weight. This exact discussion came up in one of my 1:1 sessions this week, so this week I'm bringing it to you. Inside this episode I teach you how to shift things around in your brains so the even if you're someone who wants to lose weight, you can still do it from a place of gratitude and respect, even if the body positive police disagree. This message, like all of my messages, come down to: decide what makes YOU feel good and what feels good for YOU to think. And then, let the others think whatever. As long as you're doing what feels right to do, you can't mess it up. I've also launched my latest offering, Intuitive You. A four week course where we'll dive into how to onboard and insource more of your thoughts, feelings and actions, so that you can live your life with intention and purpose.

Welcome to Episode #144 of the Digible Dudes podcast, hosted by David Staley and Reid Wicoff. In this session, we dive deep into the world of insourcing versus outsourcing in business operations and how this dynamic develops as you scale. Gone are the days of a simple debate. This discussion has taken on extra dimensions in the business world. From real estate to marketing, we explore the benefits and drawbacks of this approach for you. We begin by reflecting on the year that was 2020, which has undoubtedly shaped the landscape of in-sourcing versus outsourcing decisions. The emergence of third-party management companies and their ability to add revenue sources has had a profound impact. We shed light on the value of professional services and resource allocation in executive hiring. Specialized insights like tax strategies can yield substantial cost savings, making it crucial to consider the benefits of bringing in outside providers. As we navigate these decisions, we also explore the influence of technology on the industry and its implications for third-party management companies.

His work takes an unapologetic stand for freedom, free speech and encourages people to live free from fear. His content has served over 4 million followers and acquired 600 million views. So, I must not be the only one who gets a kick out of his content. The topics in this episode were so fun it's hard to only highlight a few. We talk about why poking fun at ourselves is important, what marks JP's shift toward political satire, how he summoned the courage to speak out against Convid when so many influencers remained silent, the dangers of voices like his being censored by big tech, and his message for people who are still afraid to speak their truth. Plus, he shares how he manages to stay abreast of current events without getting depressed, stays immune to online trolls, and how to avoid letting the media further divide us. I dig the way JP manages to convey his message without falling into the morass of doom and gloom, because sometimes when you're a truth seeker, you find out some pretty depressing facts about world affairs. It's important to find a balance when it comes to staying informed and also taking decisive action to preserve your rights. I think JP does a great job of doing just that, and I'm stoked that he paid us a visit to share some thought provoking ideas, served up with a hefty dose of humor.

The top healthcare cost savings strategies for 2023. Episode Introduction As hospitals struggle with spiraling costs, Lisa Miller reveals seven key ways to save money in the next 12 months. Topics Include how ‘'flickering'' helps to reflect on cost initiatives, the need for a Chief Expense Officer, the midterm contract reviews that helped to save one hospital over $19 million, and how data creates a 14% cost shift when presented to physicians. Show Topics Adopt a comprehensive approach to cost savings Hospitals need a Vice-President of Costs (or equivalent) Successful contract management requires a mid-term review strategy The benefits of zero based budgeting Insource versus outsourcing Raising physician cost awareness Creating a cost-conscious culture in hospitals O1:30 Adopt a comprehensive approach to cost savings Lisa challenged hospitals on how much insight they have into their cost savings projects. ‘'So what I mean by this is today, if you're a C-suite leader or you're a supply chain leader, if you wanted to know every single cost savings project that's going on in your organization, could you open up an Excel, some kind of dashboard, platform or something, and have line of sight into every single one? And my experience has said, when I've asked that question, that 100% have said, "No. We do not house every single initiative that's going on in the organization." And I think that bringing these initiatives all together so you get a complete picture with complete visibility, cohesiveness, understanding what's going on, and of course that terrible A-word which is accountability, bringing it all together, we'll have just another level of savings because you just have a complete view. And so I challenge anyone that's listening to the podcast today… I'm going to tell you that the effort to just house everything together is literally ... game changing for a lot of reasons. And I'll talk about those for a moment. But I want to give you one more nuanced thought…..Could you go back 12 months or go back in the last six months and say, "Okay, what are all the initiatives we worked on and what will be completed?.....my number one advice is to pull those projects together…. get a complete picture, invest in that time.'' #2 Hospitals need a Vice President of Costs (or equivalent) 09:00 Lisa explained why every health system would benefit from a position that focuses on costs ‘'This vice president of costs or this person who just focuses on costs where they can have line of sight to everybody and they work with everybody. …. last month, just by accident, I came across somebody, and I'm hoping that I get that person on this podcast soon…they do have a title and I've researched it since then. And there's a few of these titles out there. The title is Chief Expense Officer. I've taken an excerpt from their LinkedIn page and it says, "Senior leader collaborating with the health systems' clinical and administrative leadership to identify opportunities to create value." There's also this really great line, and I think I'm going to say this super slow. I might repeat it. It says, "Leveraging experience in expense management and analytics to reduce waste and unwarranted variation and eliminate excess cost. Leveraging experience in expense management and analytics to reduce waste and unwarranted variation and eliminate excess cost." .. their job is a Chief Expense Officer. So I feel like that's an innovation for hospitals. Again, an innovation is a process. It's a way to think about their business, a new position, right? Innovative positions. And I think that Chief Expense Officer is an innovative position. And I had in years past said there really needs to be this Vice President of Cost or of Costing or Cost Structure. But you can have a VP of Expense, but this, another CEO, Chief Expense Officer, I think makes a whole lot of sense.'' 12:00 Successful contract management requires a midterm review strategy Lisa shared how her team identified over $19 million of cost savings carrying out midterm contract reviews for one hospital. ‘'Everybody has a strategy for contract renewals. So when renewals come up there's a strategy, an RFP strategy or a renegotiation strategy. There's a strategy for net new, going out to the market. And again, it could be RFP or it could be a rigorous internal process. But I does feel like there's really, again, an innovative process to look at your contracts, and that's having a midterm strategy. And so having a midterm agreement strategy means that you've got probably a large amount of your agreements now, maybe 50 to 60% of them that aren't coming due in the next year, 18 months. They're in that three to five year, three to seven-year cycle. And so that usually gets tucked away and like, "Oh, we're going to do that in the next two or three years." But I think every hospital at some point or other, you can't do this all the time, but at some point they put a stake in the ground and say, "We're going to look at all of our agreements that are in midterm and we're going to benchmark them. We're going to analyze them." And we had done that for a lot of our hospitals. We actually did this for one health system just for their IT. They were a large IDN, several hospitals. The CIO wanted to look at all their agreements. In particular, wanted a company that had expertise looking at contracts midterm and could renegotiate them... we looked back after about two and a half years and saved them over 19 million dollars.. some of the greatest savings came from the midterm agreement renegotiations. Now if you think about it, these are agreements that wouldn't have been looked at for years.'' 19:00 The benefits of zero based budgeting Lisa outlined the financial benefits for hospitals adopting zero based budgeting. ‘'..Zero based budgeting essentially is assuming, given your budget is zero, and now you've got to explain everything you want to put into your budget versus having a budget and saying, "I'm going to keep that same budget for 2023 or 2024 and I'm going to plus or minus five or 10%," or there's some kind of way you look at it. You can look at it rolling 12 months, rolling three months, versus saying, "I've got to explain everything I'm going to put in." And that is just a really high performing way to look at your budget. And we've done that with hospitals, taken away the heavy lift part of it because it is a bit of a heavy lift and really it's just been remarkable how much we take out by taking that approach.'' 20:00 Insourcing versus outsourcing Lisa said hospitals that outsource should make 2023 the year to carry out an in-depth analysis to ensure it is still cost effective. ‘'You could, right now, insource your dietary and you may in the past have taken analysis to look at, well, what it would save us or what would be the benefits of outsourcing? I think this year we've got to look at that again. And so much has changed. It may be very beneficial to outsource dietary or, for your hospital, it may be really beneficial to insource. Lisa, you and I talked on the past episode about food costs and maybe it would make sense to bring in dietary and use local providers for dietary that could bring down costs. Years ago, I remember having school lunches and I've had community members or family members who actually did the cooking for the school. This is way back because I'm aging myself a little bit, where you would have people cooking in the back and you'd have really well prepared lunches for schools versus some of the things that may happen now versus home lunch. So what innovative ways could a hospital say, listen, maybe we want to insource it and maybe we want to use the local community. Maybe that's the way you don't want to outsource anymore because the outsourcing costs too much. But I think the whole idea around this is that whatever you're looking at internally that you've insourced, that's not a core business, consider the analysis to outsource.'' 24:30 Raising physician cost awareness Lisa explained why consistency in providing cost data to physicians can result in significant cost savings. ‘'Physicians, their decisions drive about 70% of costs in organization. And so I feel like we don't do a good enough job at showing physicians their cost. It's not telling them how to do business. We, of course, sometimes have to get them aligned when there's a cost savings initiative. But sometimes it's simple as just telling them, showing them where their costs are and showing them the numbers. And I feel like ... I often say they're scientists. If you give them the data and the information and given some comparisons in a very smart analytical way, they're going to make some really great decisions. We just don't do it, give it to them in a way that's meaningful and then we don't do it consistently, if we do it at all. And they were frustrated that when we come to them for a cost savings initiative, maybe there's a little bit of conflict because that's the only time we come to them. So I think this physician cost awareness, in a really collaborative way, getting a champion and putting that together, again, it requires some planning and maybe some outside resources to help you with that, but it's really important. There's a study that shows that they had two groups of physicians in a surgical line in the OR, and just by showing this one group of physicians their cost ... they just showed it to them, they didn't tell them they wanted anything. They reduced their costs by 7.2%, just showing them the data. The control group, which didn't get the pricing data, the cost, they had an increase in that same time period of like 6.7%. So if you can imagine, there's this shift of 14%, right, by just showing physicians the cost information. And the ones who didn't see it, they just had a natural increase in their cost. So why aren't we just using this very innovative, simple way? ‘' 29:30 Creating a cost-conscious culture in hospitals Lisa said the key motivator for a cost-conscious culture is the delivery of better patient care. ‘'I think we just need to have more cost conversations. Everything from what a welcome bag may cost. You want to have welcome bags, what are included. To these higher cost items, to being on the front lines and seeing things that somebody could raise their hand and say wait a minute, I want to be a part of this culture of cost awareness and cost consciousness, but I have to have an environment there's safety in that environment. Where people are going to listen and kind of support that. But I think there's a lot that goes on in the front lines that have a tremendous magnitude overall. So we've got to have this culture. So it's a positive culture. Listen, we're doing this for patient care. It's cost aware for patient care. It's something I've written about quite a bit. That's why we're doing it. We're not doing it for any other reason. It's not to be a downer, but it's really to uplift the organization, save jobs, really be great stewards.'' Connect with Lisa Miller on LinkedIn Connect with Jim Cagliostro on LinkedIn Connect with Lisa Larter on LinkedIn Check out VIE Healthcare and SpendMend You'll Also Hear: How ‘'flickering'' can help hospitals in their reflections on cost savings initiatives. ‘'That's why I if you have a plan, You can go back and flicker back and forth to say, "Well, what do we do? What did we thought we were going to do? Why didn't we do it?" The need to be aware of price creep in every contract – and how a monthly or quarterly review can prevent that. Why it always comes back to the data in every cost analysis. ‘'… look at the data and then you might make the decision that you may not want to do that this year, it could be a 2024 project.'' Becoming wiser in engaging physicians. ‘'We wouldn't walk in to any kind of store and just not look at a price tag. I just don't think we're being wise about how we engage physicians.'' Creating a movement within a hospital: cost savings innovation from Lisa Larter. ‘'My idea for hospitals is when you explain to people what the cause is, what the mission is and why it matters and you get people to understand and then you reward and celebrate people when they have cost savings ideas, you start to really change the culture.''

I was born a beautiful baby, full of confidence that my needs mattered. Like most of us, I screamed when I was hungry, tired, uncomfortable or bored. And I was taken care of. But, somewhere over the next few years I learned to look out more than I looked in. I started prioritizing the needs of others over the needs of myself, and because I was a child, this seemed like the right thing to do. I didn't know any better. But, as an adult I've learned that that outside in living led me to abandon and reject myself. And that rejection led to depression and an awful inside voice. It was from the bottom of that black hole that I started my journey of insourcing- of changing the story I had come to believe about myself. And in doing so, I went from a serial dieter who checked all the “right” boxes but found herself depressed and suicidal, to someone who is thriving in her body and life- with 100% certainty that I matter. On todays show I walk you through what my story of insourcing looked like, and I hope you can see some of your own story within mine. See you inside!

Welcome to Grit & Growth's masterclass on the effectiveness of small business interventions in emerging markets — with hard data to back it up. Thanks to researcher Stephen J. Anderson's studies with African entrepreneurs, you'll hear why having a coach, getting classroom training, and learning how to delegate can drive growth and impact your bottom line.Stephen J. Anderson has spent his entire career trying to bring rigorous research to international development efforts, whether at the World Bank, Stanford Graduate School of Business, or his current post at McCombs School of Business at the University of Texas at Austin.Anderson makes his case for research on the effectiveness of growth interventions. He explains, “In the development sector someone says, “I have this great program,” and then they show you the best cases. But did this program or intervention really lead to that increase in firm sales and profits? I can't just cherry-pick or look at it anecdotally.”Top Six Masterclass Research-Based Takeaways Remote coaching works. The study of 930 Ugandan businesses proved that those companies that received coaching over six months increased sales, profits, and employment — by up to 50 percent!Coaching on your value proposition had the biggest effect. Anderson advises entrepreneurs to ask themselves, “What am I offering? Who am I offering it to? And why should they buy from me?” Think about your business model, think about the strategic shifts that you might have to make in the value proposition. Coaching or access to coaching can help you do that.In-person classroom training increases profits. The study of small firms in South Africa showed that those who received training — whether finance & accounting or marketing — increased profits by about 25 to 30 percent. Networking with other entrepreneurs enhances learning. “We're social beings,” explains Anderson, “and we still want to network. I learn a concept, I take it out to my business. I come back a week later and share what worked and what didn't work. I'm also going to hear from 10 or 15 other entrepreneurs. And so I'm going to learn the theory from whatever the instructor's telling me, but I'm also going to learn practically from others.” Entrepreneurs need to delegate to scale. Anderson's study of hundreds of businesses in Nigeria proved that to scale up, you need to let go. Anderson says, “Providing entrepreneurs with access to the expertise they need, that they can insource or outsource, grows the team, the managing team, and eventually grows the sales and profits of those firms.”Try not to hire family or friends. Anderson urges entrepreneurs to think hard before they hire and to look for ways to professionalize their workforce with the specific skills they really need to grow the business.Hear more about how Anderson's research can be the basis for more effective entrepreneurship programs across the world and apply his findings to your own entrepreneurial journey.Research Links:Pathways to Profits: the Impact of Marketing vs Finance Skills on Business Performance, by Stephen J.

Better Profitability Through Insourcing Episode #424 with Brenda McNulty There are things not getting done in your practice. But what if there was a way to get a team member to do exactly what you need at your budget? Well, there is! And Kirk Behrendt brings in Brenda McNulty, the dental group director from Support DDS, to tell you all about insourcing — a great way to help your team members free up their time. If you want a remote, certified, trainable team member who can work on your schedule to increase profitability, listen to Episode 424 of The Best Practices Show! Main Takeaways: Insource what your team members don't like doing. Support DDS offers complete front desk support. There is a large pool to choose from in Support DDS. You can customize when and how they work for you. They will be trained to represent your brand. Quotes: “Right now, burnout is happening at a huge rate. People are leaving a dental office to go get paid $0.50 more an hour down the street. I live in Colorado. There's a big, huge sign out in front of Target that says $24/hour starting wage. It took me years to get $24 an hour! And let's face it, if I was working at Target, or if I'm working at Dollar Tree or In-N-Out Burger, I'm pretty much leaving all my cares at my job when I leave. Dentistry is not like that. We have things that carry over day to day. It is very stressing on the body, on the mind, on the communication, vocal skills — everything. It's stressing. And so, people that are really good are demanding a lot of money, or they're going to go somewhere else for $0.50 more.” (4:17—5:06) “Imagine that you put out an ad for exactly what you want, and within two days, you had three people to interview that matched your skillset, that matched everything that you want perfectly, all well below the budget of what you want to spend. Imagine that. And that's why [Support DDS] is so popular. Because you're not getting a service, you're getting a team member that represents your team, and they do whatever it is that you want them to do.” (5:31—6:03) “I tell the dentist, ‘Go to your team and say, ‘What are you doing right now that you don't like to do?' And they'll give them a list of all the things they don't like to do. And then, have the dentist say, ‘If we took those things off of your plate, what could you be doing?' And you'll find out all the things that should be getting done that aren't.” (6:49—7:06) “We have some offices that are paying thousands of dollars in marketing each month, and yet their phones are going unanswered. We have other offices that team members are sitting on hold for 45 minutes with Aetna, or Cigna, or fill-in-the-blank of whatever insurance company, all because the office needs to know whether something is covered or what the history is. But the team members don't have time to serve both the patient in the office as well as the back side of it. So, I think where the value comes the most comes from knowing what the need is of the dental practice.” (7:36—8:14) “[My favorite position we have is] the director of first impressions. The new patient phone calls are routed to our team members in Zimbabwe who speak with a beautiful accent. It kind of sounds British-Australian squished together. So, it's an accent that people want to listen to. They take the new patient phone call, and they ask all the questions that normally, in office, they don't have time for, like, ‘What are your expectations of us as your new dental home? What inspired you to contact us?' They're also able to spend as much time as they need to develop that connection with the patient.” (8:19—8:54) “By implementing this director of first impressions, what we're doing is we're rolling out the red carpet long before [patients] even walk up to your front door.” (10:28—10:36) “The people that are the director of first impressions, one of the first things that they do is create a list of the top 20 things about the practice.

In today's episode of Ritter On Real Estate, we interview Max Sharkansky. Max is the co-founder, managing partner, and oversees all aspects of acquisition, disposition, and property analysis for Trion Properties. Since the firm's founding in 2005, Max has led the acquisition, renovation, and disposition of more than $1,200,000,000 in mismanaged, distressed, or under-valued multifamily assets yielding an average IRR in excess of 25%. Trion currently has over $1,000,000,000 of assets and approximately 5,000 multifamily units in its portfolio. Max, along with partner Mitch Paskover, initially formed the Company to acquire properties in Los Angeles. Max led Trion in the execution of several acquisitions in the firm's first two years of existence, exiting the portfolio prior to the economic crisis. With cash on hand and no resources tied up in workouts, Max led an acquisition strategy of targeting distressed debt secured by multifamily REOs, which led to the ultra-successful campaign of the acquisition of 20 properties throughout the downturn. Since the recovery, Trion has shifted strategies to the acquisition of value-add properties where value can be created through extensive renovations, hands-on management, and improvement of operating efficiencies. Max's ability to identify then acquire distressed multifamily properties and his expertise in the marketplace have been instrumental in the success of Trion Properties. Welcome to the show, Max!

034 What if you consistently felt like you were important, cared for, valued and like you deeply matter to your partner, and to all the people you care about? Like, all the time...no matter what happened?How would that change your marriage….your life?In a nutshell, it would free you up to have so much more fun, lightness, connection, love, and passion in your marriage, and simple enjoyment of your partner day in and day out. Listen to learn how!Unfortunately, most of us, especially as HSPs, don't feel this steady sense of being valued, and loved enough. Not even in our marriage, where we want to feel that way the most. Yes, we can sometimes feel it when others applaud us for something, or when we finally reach that goal we had...But that feeling of validation comes and goes...right? To maintain it, or feel more of it, we often end up chasing it, doing things to earn that validation….or working to get our partner to show us we're valuable…This is a setup for an exhausting power struggle and endless emotional turmoil, because…your husband, like so many, might not be so good at always saying the loving thing, listening well, complementing or hugging you, and appreciating you out loud for all that you are and do. It puts a lot of pressure on your partner and totally disempowers you.it leaves you super vulnerable to feeling unimportant and unvalued. And you're likely to feel resentful, super frustrated with your man, and quite disappointed in him and your marriage, to boot...….Because (today or one day down the road) he's going to be bad at this job of making sure you feel valued all the time!If this sounds at all familiar, you are outsourcing your value. Most people do! But it's a completely unsustainable, unreliable way to go about feeling how you deserve to feel as a highly sensitive woman: deeply valued, valuable, and like you matter!And guess what? Even if your partner does well at this job much of the time, he's actually never the reason you feel valuable or not. This turns out to be very good news for you and your marriage...Listen in as I teach you where your sense of value really comes from, how much better you --and your marriage will feel-- when you know how to insource your sense of feeling deeply valuable in your life and marriage, and how easy it actually is to do once you learn how to begin.SHOW NOTES:Click to schedule your consultWebsite: lifeisworthloving.comContact: hannah@lifeisworthloving.com
