Can estranged family relationships actually be repaired? Drawing from research on reconciliation, Whitney outlines the five core ingredients necessary for genuine repair - active empathetic listening, accountability, behavioral change, mutual willingness, and safety. Whitney distinguishes between genuine repair efforts and surface-level compliance, explains when relationships are likely unsalvageable, and provides practical guidance for assessing whether reconciliation is truly possible or if it's time to accept the relationship's limitations. Whitney Goodman is a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) and the founder of Calling Home, a membership community that helps people navigate complex family dynamics and break harmful cycles.

A Note from JamesThere's always been debate about whether college is worth it. But what if there's a better alternative—one that actually prepares you to become the person you want to be? My good friend Matt Smith just wrote a book with Doug Casey called The Preparation. It's not theory—he's been putting his own son through it as a real-world experiment. Instead of college, Maxim has spent the past two years learning skills like EMT training, firefighting, building houses, working cattle, and even launching a business. This is a practical roadmap for turning those years of 18–22 into a hero's journey. I loved this conversation, and I'm sending the book to all of my kids.Episode DescriptionJames talks with entrepreneur and writer Matt Smith about his new book The Preparation, co-authored with Doug Casey. The book lays out a four-year alternative to college built around “cycles”—three-month intensive experiences designed to build practical skills, personal codes, and real-world wisdom. From earning an EMT license to fighting wildfires, training in Muay Thai, or running a small business, these cycles are designed to help young people become independent, capable, and resilient. James and Matt discuss why the traditional college path often fails, how to build a personal code of values, and why the future belongs to “expert generalists” who know how to learn across disciplines.What You'll LearnWhy “be, do, have” is a more powerful framework for life than chasing possessions or credentials.How creating a personal code builds self-respect and identity.Why intergenerational relationships matter more than peer validation.How cycles of hands-on learning—from EMT work to entrepreneurship—prepare young people better than a classroom ever could.Why becoming an expert generalist is the best hedge against a future dominated by AI and automation.Timestamped Chapters[00:00] A Note from James: College vs. alternatives[01:00] Introducing Matt Smith and The Preparation[03:00] Origins of the book and Doug Casey's vision[05:00] Writing the book for his son Maxim[06:00] Why homeschooling replaced high school[07:00] “Be, Do, Have” explained[09:00] Stacking cycles vs. stacking skills[10:00] Why the book focuses on young men (and how women can adapt it)[11:00] How to build your own cycle[13:00] Why traditional education fails to prepare people for real skills[14:00] Establishing a personal code[16:00] Examples of personal rules for self-respect[18:00] Practicing courage and choosing virtues[20:00] Skills Maxim has gained so far—EMT, chess, horses, firefighting[22:00] Adventures with Doug Casey and small-country nation building[24:00] Maxim's cycles: EMT work, ranch apprenticeship, wildfire EMT[27:00] Structure, resistance, and learning by doing[28:00] Shelter Institute and learning to build a house[29:00] Entrepreneurship cycle: precision agriculture with drones[31:00] Lessons from entrepreneurship[32:00] Muay Thai training in Thailand[33:00] Cooking school in Florence[34:00] Travel with purpose vs. aimless wandering[36:00] James on biographies and meaningful decisions[37:00] Preparing for AI and the future of work[39:00] Why being an “expert generalist” matters[41:00] Learning how to learn across environments[42:00] The problem with peer-only education[44:00] Intergenerational relationships as mentorship[45:00] What comes after the preparation[47:00] Why the program can work for adults too[49:00] Rethinking retirement as another cycle of preparation[56:00] Matt's personal growth through writing and learning new skills[58:00] Designing The Preparation as a beautiful, interactive book[59:00] Closing thoughts and sending the book to the next generationAdditional ResourcesMatt Smith & Doug Casey — The PreparationDoug Casey's Take (Podcast): YouTube ChannelDoug Casey's Official Site: internationalman.comThe Shelter Institute (Learn to Build a House): shelterinstitute.comMuay Thai Training in Thailand (Example School): Santai Muay Thai GymFlorence Cooking School Example: Apicius International School of HospitalityStripe Press (Books mentioned by Matt): stripe.pressDoug Casey's Classic Book — Crisis Investing: AmazonSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

How can we build strong intergenerational teams in the workplace?Instead of viewing generational differences through the lens of stereotypes or a “competition of pain,” we can approach them as a form of cultural diversity. By fostering cultural competence, validating each generation's unique experiences, and leveraging friction for growth, organizations can build stronger, more innovative teams. Strategies like two-way mentoring, having open conversations about values, and being curious about different perspectives can help organizations “future-proof” their culture, ensuring it is resilient and inclusive for everyone.On this episode of Just One Q, Dominique chats with guest Natasha Sharma, a DEI professional and the founder and CEO of Power in Progress. They explore how to move beyond common generational stereotypes by treating intergenerational differences as a form of cultural diversity. Natasha shares practical strategies to foster empathy, leverage friction for growth, and build stronger, more innovative teams that are inclusive for all ages.Keep Up with Natasha:https://powerinprogressinc.com/Try Learning Snippets:https://dialectic.solutions/signupContact Us to Be a Guest on Just One Q:https://dialectic.solutions/podcast-guest

The real estate market is finding balance with inventory up 27% across regions and over one million listings nationally for the first time since 2019. Despite more inventory, we're still in a soft seller's market with approximately three months supply, though competition among sellers is increasing as listings outpace sales growth.• Inventory up 27% with over one million listings nationally for the first time since 2019• Months supply of inventory at approximately 3 months in most regions, 5-6 months in mountain areas• Days on market stabilized around 50 days, returning to more normal pace• Pricing is critical - properties priced right still sell quickly, but overpriced listings face multiple reductions• Sales pace up about 9% across regions during Q2• Median price appreciation averaging around 2% with average price appreciation around 4%• First-time homebuyers now averaging 36 years old and representing only 24% of transactions• Intergenerational wealth transfers provide opportunities for parents/grandparents to help with down payments• New construction and resale markets moving in same direction with builders offering significant concessions• Interest rate buy-downs are effective negotiation strategies for both new construction and resale propertiesPrice strategically, understand your hyper-local market conditions, and don't fall victim to misleading headlines.

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.

This rich, gorgeous conversation will fill your soul. The singular and beloved Joanna Macy died at home at the age of 96 on July 20, 2025. She has left an immense legacy of beauty and wisdom and courage to sustain us. A Buddhist teacher, ecological philosopher, and Rilke translator, she taught and embodied a wild love for the world. What follows is the second and final conversation Krista had with Joanna, together with Joanna's friend, psychologist and fellow Rilke translator Anita Barrows, in 2021. Joanna and Anita had just published a new translation of Rilke's Letters to a Young Poet. At the turn of the last tumultuous century, Rilke was prescient in realizing that the world as he'd known it was passing away. Joanna's adventurous life and vision took shape in the crucibles of the history that then unfolded. Relistening to her now is to experience a way of standing before the great, unfolding dramas of our time — ecological, political, intimate. We stand before the possibilities of what Joanna called “A Great Unraveling” or “A Great Turning” towards life-generating human society. All of this and so much more comes through in the riches of this life-giving conversation. Sign yourself and others up for The Pause to be on our mailing list for all things On Being and to receive Krista's monthly Saturday morning newsletter, including a heads-up on new episodes, special offerings, recommendations, and event invitations.Joanna Macy was the root teacher of The Work That Reconnects. Her books include Active Hope and four volumes of translated works of Rainer Maria Rilke, together with Anita Barrows: Rilke's Book of Hours: Love Poems to God;  In Praise of Mortality; and A Year with Rilke. Krista's previous "On Being” episode with her is “A Wild Love for the World.” That's also the title of a lovely book of homage to Joanna that was published in 2020. Anita Barrows's most recent poetry collection is Testimony.

In this episode of Beautiful Work, Beautiful Life, Laurel Holland and Laurel Boivin reflect on the importance of staying true to yourself through the ever-evolving stages of life. As they wrap up Season Four, they explore how inner work shifts over time and how embracing your current phase—whether defined by age, career, or emotional growth—can bring clarity, fulfillment, and connection.

Are the best days of the church behind us? Or ahead? Kara Powell and Ray Chang join Mark Labberton to discuss Future-Focused Church: Reimagining Ministry to the Next Generation, co-authored with Jake Mulder. Drawing on extensive research, practical frameworks, and decades of leadership at Fuller Seminary and the TENx10 Collaboration, Powell and Chang map a path forward for the church—one rooted in relational discipleship, kingdom diversity, and tangible neighbour love. In a moment marked by disaffiliation, disillusionment, and institutional fragility, they offer a hopeful vision: churches that are brave enough to listen deeply, lead adaptively, and partner with the next generation in mission. This conversation unpacks their “Here to There” framework, the role of human agency in ecclesial change, and why honouring young people isn't pandering—it's planting seeds for the future of faith. Episode Highlights “We believe the best days of the church are ahead.” “Leadership begins with listening.” “Unless strategy emerges out of culture, or unless the culture is changed, it's really hard to lead.” “Everything rises when we focus on young people.” “Agency is the intersection of knowing, being, and doing.” Helpful Resources and Links Future-Focused Church by Kara Powell, Jake Mulder, and Ray Chang (InterVarsity Press) Fuller Youth Institute—Research and innovation for youth ministry TENx10 Collaboration—Movement to help faith matter more for ten million young people over ten years Asian American Christian Collaborative—Equipping Asian American Christians for faithful public witness ”Churches and Change: Adaptive Leadership”—Heifetz on adaptive vs. technical change (Harvard Business Review) Rethinking Church in the 21st Century (Fuller Seminary)—Ongoing work in contextual theology and church innovation About Kara Powell Kara Powell is the chief of leadership formation at Fuller Seminary, executive director of the Fuller Youth Institute, and founder of the TENx10 Collaboration.

A pastor, activist, and writer, Ray's work focuses on racial justice, next-gen discipleship, and building churches that reflect the diversity of God's kingdom.

Show Notes Kara Powell is chief of leadership formation at Fuller Seminary and executive director of the Fuller Youth Institute Ray Chang is executive director of the TENx10 Collaboration and president of the Asian American Christian Collaborative Future-Focused Church offers a framework for adaptive change, grounded in Scripture, research, and practical leadership “Leadership begins with listening”—Kara shares the importance of appreciative inquiry and asking youth what matters to them Ray describes today's church as “a church actively trying to define and redefine itself in tumultuous and complex times” Simple but powerful framework: Here to There—understanding where we are and where God is calling us next Three checkpoints of a future-focused church: relationally discipling young people, modelling kingdom diversity, tangibly loving our neighbours “Everything rises when we focus on young people”—churches flourish when the next generation is centered Data shows only one in three senior pastors rank young people among their top five priorities Kara: “I wish the problem was that young people were overly prioritized—sadly, it's the opposite” Church innovation isn't just strategic, it's adaptive: “Culture eats strategy for breakfast.” Ray explains why Covid exposed the difference between technical and adaptive change in the church Kara: “We overestimate what we can accomplish in one year and underestimate what we can do in three to five.” Biblical foundations explored—Paul's epistles blend being and doing; Galatians 5 offers a model of fruitful action Human agency as divine invitation—Ray: “God invites us to partner in God's work for the flourishing of humanity” Kara's church story: youth sat in the front, fully engaged—“They prioritized us” Simple action steps from churches include showing up to youth events and publicly celebrating young people's milestones Mark Labberton challenges the idea of “pandering” to youth—Kara responds with data and theological reflection Ray reflects on the complex dynamics in immigrant and second-gen Asian American churches—“placelessness” and a search for belonging Importance of community: following Jesus together, across generations, cultures, and neighbourhoods Kara reframes giving: “Young people want to give to people and to purpose—not to perpetuate programs” “Culture is where values are held; unless strategy aligns with culture, it will be resisted”—Ray on organizational change Intergenerational relationships are critical—older adults model faith and love through presence and commitment The book offers not just direction but formation: process, practice, and people matter as much as the goal “If there's ever a moment to care about the church—and young people—it's now.” Production Credits Conversing is produced and distributed in partnership with Comment magazine and Fuller Seminary.

We're now on the brink of what could be the biggest shake-up to the Australian tax system since the GST was introduced back in 2000. Federal Treasurer Jim Chalmers has signalled that tax reform is not just on the agenda - it's a priority. But what kind of reform are we really talking about here? If you dig beneath the headlines, this isn't just about closing loopholes, it's about reshaping how wealth is taxed and redistributed in a very different economic and demographic Australia. Whether you're a business owner, property investor, or self-funded retiree, you may be directly in the firing line. And while Chalmers says this isn't about a ‘tax grab', many of us know that when Canberra talks about ‘fairness,' it often means someone else is footing a larger bill. So today, Ken Raiss, Director of Metropole Wealth Advisory, and I discuss what's being proposed, what the real motives might be, and how you can future-proof your wealth and estate plans amid the uncertainty.”   Takeaways  ·         Debt burden is driving government tax reform discussions. ·         Australia's gross debt is projected to exceed 100% in five years. ·         Government spending is increasing significantly, impacting taxpayers. ·         Tax reforms may target wealth rather than income. ·         Family trusts could face changes that affect small business owners. ·         Intergenerational wealth planning tools may be eroded by new taxes. ·         Financial health checks are essential for optimizing wealth structures. ·         Proactive planning is crucial in anticipation of tax changes. ·         The government is exploring new revenue sources to manage debt. ·         Economic policies may shift towards taxing wealth rather than work.   Chapters  00:00 Understanding Tax Reform Priorities 04:29 The Debt Tsunami and Its Implications 09:17 Exploring Tax Strategies and Alternatives 12:10 The Future of Family Trusts and Wealth Distribution 14:45 Taxing Wealth vs. Taxing Work 16:57 Government Pressures and Potential Changes 19:35 Proactive Tax Planning Strategies 22:14 The Importance of Financial Health Checks 24:37 Looking Ahead: The Future of Taxation in Australia   Links and Resources:   Michael Yardney Get the team at Metropole Wealth Advisory create a Strategic Wealth plan for your needs Click here and have a chat with us    Ken Raiss, Director of Metropole Wealth Advisory   Get a bundle of eBooks and Reports at www.PodcastBonus.com.au   Also, please subscribe to my other podcast, Demographics Decoded with Simon Kuestenmacher – just look for Demographics Decoded wherever you are listening to this podcast and subscribe so each week we can unveil the trends shaping your future.

Jeannette explores the transformative power of generational diversity in sports and business leadership. She delves into how understanding the unique strengths and perspectives of different age groups can serve as a competitive edge for organisations. By challenging stereotypes and fostering an inclusive environment, leaders can harness the complementary strengths of older and younger generations to drive innovation and collaboration Jeannette explains why: Generational diversity goes beyond stereotypes and is shaped by the social, technological, and economic forces each generation experiences. Recognising these differences can enhance collaboration and innovation within teams. Instead of viewing generational differences as gaps to bridge, they should be seen as opportunities to leverage the unique strengths of each generation, combining the agility and digital fluency of younger leaders with the strategic oversight of experienced leaders. Establishing a culture where all team members feel safe to share ideas and express themselves is crucial for fostering innovation and collaboration across generations. Effective leadership of multigenerational teams involves strategies such as reverse mentoring, facilitating cross-generational communication, aligning on shared values, and adapting leadership styles to empower creativity.

In this episode of the Glowing Older podcast, host Nancy Griffin interviews Ashton Applewhite, author of 'This Chair Rocks: A Manifesto Against Ageism.' They discuss Ashton's journey into understanding ageism, the current state of awareness, the importance of policy, and the intersectionality of ageism with other social issues. Ashton introduces her initiative, YODA, aimed at fostering intergenerational connections to combat ageism. About AshtonAn internationally recognized expert on ageism, Ashton Applewhite is the author of This Chair Rocks: A Manifesto Against Ageism and a co-founder of the Old School Hub. She speaks widely at venues that have included the United Nations and the TED mainstage, and is at the forefront of the emerging movement to raise awareness of ageism and make age a criterion for diversity. In 2022 the United Nations named Ashton one of the Healthy Aging 50: fifty leaders transforming the world to be a better place to grow older.Key TakeawaysOldSchool.info is an anti-ageism clearinghouse—a central repository of tools and resources for the emerging movement against ageism.Ageism is a pervasive issue that affects all aspects of life. We are all biased, but we can control our attitudes about aging. The first step in any social change is awareness, because most bias is unconscious and we can't challenge something when we don't even know exists. Building intergenerational connections is vital for combating ageism. The YODA initiative (Youngers and Olders Dismantling Ageism) aims to connect younger and older generations as a tool to end ageism.Older people resent younger people for having more social and cultural visibility, and young people resent older people for having more political access and moreeconomic clout. Both are true.Fear divides us and people make money off fear. When people are divided, they tend to not come together to change ways of thinking or the ways institutions work.
