This week my girl Rachel Sheer returns to BlackBeltBeauty Radio. Rachel is a former model, bikini competitor, and fitness instructor now serving as a well-respected certified functional medicine dietician, speaker + business coach. Inspired by her own journey of being seen as the poster girl for women's health externally but struggling with severe gut issues, overtraining, and emotional havoc internally, Rachel was determined to discover the root causes for her illness and get rid of all of the band-aid solutions that had been presented to her. After successfully healing herself, she became deeply passionate about helping others do the same. Rachel's personal health journey was the catalyst to getting a degree from Baylor University in Nutrition Science and Dietetics + begin her mission of helping others reach optimal health through a combination of functional medicine, with a focus on gut health, lifestyle and emotional healing. In this conversation, we get to experience the conscious evolution Rachel has encountered that empowered her abundance, energies, and overall peace and allowed the shedding of past limitations. Key takeaways from this episode are: How to escape the ego cycle of external self-worth validations + “I am” identities Embodiment practices to become more conscious and release unconscious self-beliefs How to harmonize masculine + feminine energies to fully experience the flow of abundance Ways to operate with alignment and intentionality to find your true SELF The power of asking potent questions that assist in your transformation Let us know how this episode impacted you via IG in the comments, DMs + story shares and tag @roxylook + @blackbeltbeauty + @rachelscheer -- we LOVE connecting with you.

And I say it's the darling because even before you and I were law partners, I started the practice only dreaming about doing special ed. I still, oh, Kristina Supler: How could there be life before us together? Susan Stone: What there was,there was you and my three kids. Everyone says that. But there was. And it started with special education and one of our guests here today who you'll introduce, Tammie. I remember reaching out to her years ago when I was just a newbie. Trying to break in and create a name for myself and saying, can I come talk about special education? And you were so gracious, Tammie, to host me to give a primer. And I look back then and I think, wow, what I, I wish I had the knowledge and the mileage of life experience and working with clients that I do today. But you gotta start somewhere, right? Supler? That's right. So today we're gonna do a little special ed work. Why don't you introduce it. Kristina Supler: Today we're joined by Tammie Sebastian, Louise Lutz and Marbella Cáceres, who are all with the Ohio Coalition for the Education of Children with Disabilities, which is a statewide nonprofit organization that serves families of infants, toddlers, children, and youth with disabilities in Ohio. And they also provide services O C E C D. That's a mouthful. That is a mouthful. Much all of special ed alphabet soup we say, right? Yep. They work through a coalition effort with parents and other professional disability organizations. They have individual members. It's been around since 1984 to help with parent training, and we are really pleased to be joined by three fabulous women today. Welcome. Tammie Sebastian: Hi, how are you guys? Susan Stone: We're doing great. We actually just finished recording a whole speech for milestones for their conference. We did a virtual lecture. So we are just back to back today. But to start out, could one of you lovely guests, explain what the Ohio Coalition for the Education of Children with Disabilities. O C E C D is what you do and what your given roles are within the organization. That's a mouthful. But you guys can handle it. Tammie Sebastian: I'm sure Marbella's gonna do that. And I'm sure she's gonna give you the correction on the 1984 when she, so I'll hand it over to Marbella, but 1984 is when we became a P t I. Is that correct? Marbella? Marbella Cáceres: Yes, that is correct. thank you. First of all, I wanna thank you for the opportunity that you're giving the three of us to come and talk about the services. Our pleasure. The most important part. Yes. as you mentioned at the beginning, the coalition has been around long, long time. Early seventies. We became Wow. Yes. And then we were so lucky enough to apply for the federal funded grant to become the parent training information center for Ohio since 1984. So yes, we have been around for over 50 years. Assisting families, assisting educators with anything that has to do about their responsibility that parents have under the special education process. But the most important piece is the rights that the parents have in this process and how they can become informed so they can participate in this important, decision making meetings, for the benefit of the child children. We take our job very seriously. There is not enough that I can tell you about being involved at the coalition. I first became, part of the coalition just to be an interpreter translator. I've been with the coalition of over 17 years now. And I have the privilege to be serving, The stay under my executive director, Dr. Lisa Hickman as the assistant director. Right now I'm the assistant director of the coalition. I have been for the past three years. And I also oversee the multicultural department as the statewide multicultural coordinator, assisting families that do not have English as the first language, or they are limited English proficient. So that's a Tammie Sebastian: big role. it Marbella Cáceres: is. Lisa, Tammie. Tammie Sebastian: Yeah. So Lisa, do you wanna Go ahead. Go ahead Tammie. That's fine. Okay. So yeah, this probably would be the even flow going to, so I actually, and as Susan had mentioned, so I had actually previously served in Lisa's role. And then I'll hand it over to Lisa. But I had covered Cuyahoga County as an information specialist for about nine years. and what did you do? So an information specialist is very unique. So as the state parent training information center, we empower parents to become effective representatives for themselves. And there's really a lot of confusion around advocacy or advocates and information specialists. And what we do is at no cost to parents and alsodistinction between advocate and information specialist. A as you heard, I said we empower parents.We do not come in and speak for parents. We do not act as attorneys for parents. We do that through education, technical assistance, and I'll let Lisa get into that a little bit more, as her role now as the information specialist in Cuyahoga County. But my role now, with the Ohio Coalition is I am the statewide program coordinator and that I wear many different hats. I provide professional development to staff. I also, create and update trainings. look for host, partner with different agencies to bring in statewide webinars. And also we have a lot of project work that we do. We collaborate with the State Department of Education, the Ohio Department of Education, and many other agencies, and do a lot of project work. We're working on some cross agency training right now with empowering families. Just, we have so many things going on. And I don't wanna take up all the time talking about all those things. I wanna give Lisa an opportunity and maybe we could come back around to that. And then also a big part of my role is networking and building those relationships. And that is so that parents can have a seat at the table, and that they can have a voice. Lisa, Lisa Lutz: Hi, I, am Lisa Lutz and I am an information specialist and trainer. I cover not only Cuyahoga County, but Ashtabula, Lake Gaga, Portage Trumbo, Mahoney. So it's a very, wide and busy area. I do a lot of work with the parents. I do go into meetings with parents. I do primarily all virtual at this point because I can't get from one end of my area to the other. And parents seem to feel that they're treated differently when somebody comes in with them. So that support is really important to help them feel more comfortable and more heard and that their voice does have meaning. So that's, Susan Stone: So would you actually file a due process complaint if necessary and serve as an advocate at a hearing? Lisa Lutz: I do not file due process complaints. I am not a lawyer. If a family wants to file a formal complaint with O D E, I will do some suggestions. But I don't write it for them. I can walk them through that. But, that is for them to have that power to say what they wanna say. Tammie Sebastian: And a big part of our role, too, as the state Parent Training information center is offering that conflict resolution, facilitation, mediation, and looking into all those things. We cannot tell a family what to do. But we wanna provide them with all the options. And as you guys are aware, there's administrative review. There's the state complaint process, due process. And so we try to work through all those through training, and through information. Cadre has a lot of resources. The na I think that's the Center for Dispute Resolution, the National Center for Dispute Resolution. So we really try to work through the process with parents. But if that's where they land, we will certainly help and support them through the process. We just don't file on behalf. If that helps. Marbella Cáceres: Obviously, the work that we do, we recognize that sometimes there is systematic issues that need to be resolved for the benefit of that group of children and parents. So in those situations we partner with agencies that do that type of work. We're very familiarized with Disability Rights, Ohio, the Civil Rights office. So we are a center also that provides resources to families. So if they come to us with specific questions like Tammie and Lisa were saying, we guide parents. We give parents options so they can make informed decisions. That is the responsibility that we have as the parent training center for Ohio. Kristina Supler: I really like that all three of you have really in your comments heavily emphasized the importance of parents having a voice in the education of their children. So can you give us some more specifics on how you work with parents to empower them so that they do have voice to make sure that their child is receiving the necessary support and resources. Susan Stone: To make a meaningful benefit for their education post injury? Tammie Sebastian: Yes. Yeah, that's, I'm glad you guys mentioned that. And I, something we probably should have said, cuz I think we just dove right into the work, is we are all uniquely, parents of children with disabilities ourselves. So number one, that is the number one thing that we bring to the table is that lived experience. And when you have that lived experience,it's much easier, for parents to have that trust in knowing that you went through the process, that empathy, that you've went through that process. So I just wanted to come back to that and let you know that I am also a parent of two children with disabilities. My oldest has ADHD and my youngest has autism. And Lisa, also, I, if we could probably go back around and let you know that Lisa, If you wanted to talk about your children too. Lisa Lutz: I have four kids. My oldest has ADHD and dyslexia. had to fight tooth and nail to get him the supports he needed. And all three of my boys have type one diabetes. So I have that medical piece. Susan Stone: And my Interesting, so do you deal with the interplay between Section 5 0 4 of the Rehabilitation Act? The a d a and i d e A? Lisa Lutz: Yes. Yes. Susan Stone: Okay. A lot of people. that's a whole podcast on of itself, how those stages run together. Lisa Lutz: I do a lot of, explaining the difference that, Section 5 0 4 is not the ugly stepsister of the I IEP. Kristina Supler: No, it's all about access, right? Susan Stone: So yes, that is, that is another part of our work as well. And explaining letting them know the difference, helping them understand that, and that you're not gonna have a 5 0 4 and an ip, but,Yeah, and you may not, sometimes you want one over the other. Depends. correct. Love that. Marbella, can you, give us a little personal Marbella Cáceres: Yes. I'm also a parent of three children. My oldest child is 28 now. But she was identify, and that is the unique expertise that I bring because 25 years ago I wasn't able to speak English. And I was the parent that was trying to look for assistance, but, no one opened the door other than the coalition to provide me with my rights in my native Spanish language. So that is the expertise that I bring. I work with families. I have my child who 14, was diagnosed with a specific learning disability because they thought that was just the fact that she was learning English. And Oh my gosh, wow. And then my male child is gifted, so I have that expertise. Also to navigate that is another elephant in the room with a gifted education. And my little one was diagnosed when he was three with ADHD and is under the spectrum autism spectrum disorder. So like Tammie and Lisa, the experience is very personal. So it is the unique characteristic that sometimes bring us to the level of understanding parents, what they go through and how much they struggle. Susan Stone: Yeah, and I just wanna point out that parents of what we call two E twice exceptional kids have their own struggles. Because a lot of schools, if a student is doing well and getting good grades, what's the problem? What's the problem? It's almost impossible. Those are our biggest fights with school are those two we kids. Yeah. Tammie Sebastian: Yeah. we do. So we're all shaking our heads, because we all are relating because if we had even a penny for every time we heard about the grades. The grades, yes. Susan Stone: The yes. But Johnny has no friends and can't sit still. Tammie Sebastian: Yeah. That there's no other impact but grades. And yeah, I think we've all experienced that. I could just tell you from personal experience, my daughter, unfortunately was identified very late as gifted in her 11th grade year. what? That's great. Wow. Yeah. Yeah. Yeahinteresting interesting. It was in, I should, let me back up. It's not, she was gifted in one area. But the psychologist was so shocked to find out that nobody thought to give her this test and this assessment, and wanted to know why she wasn't in honors. And I said, they. her ADHD was so glaringly obvious that nobody could see that giftedness and they didn't test. So I think we've all experienced that at some level. But yeah, it's, the grades, the, our choice exceptional children. there's so much, we could probably do this podcast once a week with you. let's save our topics. Yeah. Susan Stone: So the parents who suspect their child has a learning disability, what would you describe as the first steps a parent should take? Kristina Supler: What does that look like? Lisa Lutz: To request a meeting with the school to, if they feel like they have a learning disability, to say that you,want a me a team meeting to discuss what interventions and different supports have already been put in place. And then possibly getting a multi-factor evaluation. Susan Stone: Lisa, can I press you a little bit because I think a lot of parents don't know that even before the I E P process, in the planning meeting in the E T R, can you go through what an response to intervention is and what the tiers are? Because I think sometimes we overlook those options. Lisa Lutz: We do. it's a three-tiered, system similar to the P B I S program. That the tier one is what everybody gets. It is the general education. The tier two is some when a student is struggling a little bit to see what other supports they might be able to put in place, whether it's math or ELA or what area that might be in, but adding additional supports, not in place of, but additional supports. And then the tier three is when you really need direct instruction. basically through an I E P. Tammie Sebastian: And if I could just add, I don't know if you were gonna go to go any further with this, Susan. But a lot of times we see our children, being stuck in that R T I process. Oh yeah. I'm well aware. Sometimes for years. And one of the things that we always bring up is that the federal law does say that they cannot use response to intervention to delay an evaluation. And I think that's really important to talk about. And I always say, when we're supporting parents, I always say, that's great. Keep collecting your data. But let's go ahead and evaluate, keep, go, keep doing the response to intervention. But let's go ahead and evaluate. Susan Stone: And I've had denials to evaluate because they're saying the response to the tier two works so well, why do you need us to evaluate? That's a goodie, huh? Tammie Sebastian: Yeah, because, Lisa Lutz: yeah, that's there, the response to intervention, you're not going to have those through high school. They're not going to be doing those response to interventions on that level as in first and second grade. And if they need that in order to be successful within that school class, in that school system, then they need to see what other supports and services that they're gonna need ongoing. Marbella Cáceres: For my, because the approach that sometimes I have for my families, many of my families are immigrant families that come here to assist them that probably is a non-existent system in our countries. Okay. So try to understand how everything connects and how everything works and what the responsibilities for a school the schools are is a very Outside subjects for them. Even, some of the terms that we use in special education do not exist, in other languages. So trying to understand that. One way that I present it to my families is always, that is help that the schools use for struggling learners, for somebody that is having a hard time that, need that direct instruction, very specific guided instruction that has a beginning, that has a middle, that has an end. And also, that is followed with fidelity. So those are the things that sometimes I cannot bring down to my families for them to understand how those systems connect with each other. Everything has to be in harmony for the student to have gain and education. And then it's not, the academics is the social-emotional part of the student as well. Tammie Sebastian: Yeah, I, and I just, I wanted to just add one more thing to response to intervention. If a child's in response to intervention for three years, then I guess they're not responding to intervention. That's just, you think well, So that's just my simplistic, Kristina Supler: I think that's well said. I'm wondering for a, again, a theme of this discussion has been parents having voice and empowering them. So when parents are navigating this process of obtaining services for their children, what are some of the key rights that parents should keep in mind and not lose sight of? Tammie Sebastian: Honestly, every parent comes to us and we talk a lot about this amongst us as staff and as parents. Every parent comes to us at a different, where they might be in the process. It really depends. But one of the first things and I know we all have different ways of working parents. But I think collectively as an organization is the first thing we do is let that parent just release everything they need to release. When they come to us, they, it's, there's a lot going on. We just listen. Sometimes the first phone call, we're just listening to them. Maybe the first couple of phone calls. But then I think the key things that we want them to to know is we reallythey we really have to emphasize their rights and that is so overwhelming. That is such an overwhelming process. So we try to break it down. And we do a really good job of like, when we go through, And we start working through the process. Now, if they're a parent that's new in the process, obviously, we're gonna talk about whether or not, they, whether or not what, you know, what's been going on. And I think Susan had said, you know what? I, Susan and Lisa were talking about initially, what do you tell the parents to do? And so we talked through that process. A lot of data collection, making sure that they're collecting data. So documentation is huge. We tell parents, that's one of the ver the very first, simplest, simplistic things that they can do is make sure they have documentation and data collection. Because so many times parents are like, we've had these conversations. I've had these conversations. What was the response? I don't know. Or they told me they were gonna do this. And really, if we can get them anywhere, just say, collect that data from the beginning. and then again, just, Susan Stone: and Tammie, I just wanna interrupt. You're assuming the parents have the executive function skills to do that? Kristina Supler: Oh, great point, Susan. Because I often, it's, yeah, it's a big assumption that the parents are able to navigate this. Cuz this can be a very complex and overwhelming process. Susan Stone: And a lot of disabilities are, you oftentimes we'll see a parent with a similar disability. And they can't get organized or they don't have the luxury of getting organized. I wanna many children, jobs, parents. Yep. Yep. And to juggle Team meetings, by the way, are in the middle of the day. It's hard. I know districts will try to make it early or late at the end of the day. But the executive function skills you need when you have a student with issues, it can be quite overwhelming. Tammie Sebastian: That's right. And that's why I said we really have to meet the parent where they are at. And sometimes it is. and I know Marbella can speak to this too. Because she has a barrier with some of her families with the language. So that takes an extra layer of being able to develop. start starting that process. Susan Stone: and Marbella I just wanna ask, does what languages can be assisted by your organization? Obviously Spanish, but I know that we really live in a very multicultural world. So what other languages can you help Marbella Cáceres: Any language. Any language that is spoken. Any parent. We obviously have multicultural information specialists that speak for Somali, French, Italian, spanish, Arabic and the ones that we don't have in the house that are working part-time or full-time, we contract with agencies across the state that can provide interpreter agencies that can provide. So no family that comes through our door is left with no help. And there are some times,many times we deal also with parents that are struggle with literacy that cannot read and write. Parents with special needs their themselves, like you were mentioning. Like Tammie said, we meet the family with the family is, for instance, my family. Sometimes, if you start talking to them right away about these are your rights, they're going to shut down. So we need sometimes to a, identify those barriers, respectfully, work with them as much as possible to overcome some of the challenges because parents need to be engaged, parents need to participate, and many limitations that they have is due to a school's not doing the right thing either. So it's okay, now you are aware that every single school district needs to have a language access plan. Now you know that. Now it's not a favor that they're doing to you by you requesting an interpreter. But you requesting this support for you to be engaged, for you to be involved, for you to be a fully participant in those meetings, you need to have this support. So the school is mandate to provide you that support. I So once they know that they are empowered, at least to start this conversations. Susan Stone: Yeah. I wanna share a personal story. My grandparents. My grandmother especially spoke initially very little English. And my mother said that when she went to kindergarten they thought she was cognitively impaired because she really spoke yiddish, which is really interesting cuz it's an almost dead language now. But they viewed her as, Having special needs, but really it was because she was raised and English was not the primary language of the home. So I hear ya. Tammie Sebastian: We've done a lot of work around that, bringing in Steven Gill,national speaker, and, talking about the over-identification. So especially when it comes to language. And whether or not that is you know, the process that they need to go through, whether or not that is a, true learning disability or language issue. And I just wanted to say something to come back really quick on this is, I wouldn't say a personal story, but an advocacy story. That when we work with parents and meeting them where they're at, I actually, in Cuyahoga County worked with a lot of families who, in underserved communities and, also coming from an underserved community myself. And mom was, or grandma I should say, I'm sorry, had full custody, was not able, very little reading, very little writing. But as we walked through the process every step of the way, even though she was not actually writing those things or,she was verbally telling me what to write, how. And she, and even in the places when we started, we had to go file a complaint. And even then I did not take over for her. I had her sitting with me and she was part of the process whether she was organizing papers, whether she wasjust helping,to tell the story along the way. She was part of writing that complaint and it empowered her so much that she's gone on to actually be a great collaborator with the district she's in because they held her in such high regards after she fought so hard for her grandson. So I. I think it's even more important to empower those parents who might not be,who might not have those executive, who might have a disability just as their child. I think even more and I think that we talked a little bit about that Marbella and I, about that empowering piece of just starting off with giving them where they're, or meeting them where they're at, giving them what they need to get onto the next piece. Kristina Supler: That's a really nice, uplifting story, Tammie, and listening to the three of you, you're a wealth of knowledge individually and even more so collectively. And so tell our listeners a little bit about how you collaborate with other organizations and agencies to advocate the needs for, the needs of children with disabilities at the state and national level. Tammie Sebastian: Ooh, so we got a really good one. I love a Susan Stone: who, you got an we have a really big moment. Tammie Sebastian: I know, and I hope parents and professionals will be excited as well. It's no secret. But the Ohio Coalition,was asked to partner with the Ohio Department of Education to look at our parent notice, which is our procedural safeguards. And our last parent notice was called a guide. And for those of you who really have been through the process of special education, they'll probably remember whose idea. And so the procedural safeguards have to have those, so those that's the parent notice. And it has to be provided to parents andat an initial evaluation,when they request, when they provide consent, pretty much every time they turn around. And I have to tell you, and we're trying to get away from the stigma or the joking of you could probably paint your house with these. Because it takes away the seriousness of how important this document is. And so we got have been given the opportunity to partner with the department and rewrite the parent notice. And, that started a year ago, that process. And there was rule revisions from the operating standards that needed to be changed every five years. The Ohio Operating Standards go through a rule revision process. And we, just completed that this week we will be presenting it at the state advisory panel for exceptional children. How exciting. Exciting. Yes. And then we are going to be doing a series of trainings and rollout. It's, it will roll out next year. But there's gonna be a lot coming with this to educate parents. We're very excited about that. I couldn't think of a better way to talk about a collaboration. And this is very, very important because we we really want to model for parents that you can honestly be in disagreement with your district and you're gonna have up and downs and there might be conflict. But you can still partner with them and make sure that the child is always the goal. And we've done that with the State Department of Education. So we hope we can model that to parents and districts alike to make sure that they're working through that process. I'm sorry, I got a little long-winded. I'm very excited about. Susan Stone: I think we asked the right questions. I'm loving the responses. I'm gonna conclude with a final question to all three of you lovely ladies. What can Kristina and I as attorneys in this space, what's the most important thing you'd like to see from us? Kristina Supler: Ooh. That's a good question. I like it. Susan Stone: I'm bringing it back to us, it is our podcast Tammie Sebastian: Oh we're thinking hard? Kristina Supler: Yeah, I can tell. I can tell. Lisa Lutz: I think one of the things that is overwhelming for parents when they feel like the council, when they see council is the monetary commitment. And a lot of my families do not have that. I don't know how you structure your financial pieces. But keeping that in mind and possibly having a plan and a program to help families that do not have that, those resources. Susan Stone: And that's a, that's, and I agree that is a serious issue that Kristina and talk about Of course. We are lawyers. That's our job. We're not funded by an agency. And I think the biggest challenge we have is that we have seen attorneys immediately move to filing a new process complaint because that's the only mechanism that they can think of that if they prevailed, they would get attorney's fees. I'm gonna be very, this is real talk. We won't do that we won't sue just for the sake of getting our fees. In fact, I refuse to do that because you couldn't that's not ethical to me. Kristina Supler: and it's often not in, in the best interest of meeting and serving the needs of the child. Susan Stone: So we just don't do that. Tammie Sebastian: we say, I'm so excited to hear that I, yes, Susan Stone: So we are hourly. and we are sadly, we're not a resource for someone who cannot, a family that cannot pay our fee because of course, it's our job and that's how we get paid. On the other hand, we don't file lawsuits that don't have merit.It's a real issue. And I think that's what we try to do as a other solution, is that we work with on our own staff a parent advocate who's at a lower rate than ours. So we try to, what we call staff responsibly. The problem we have is a lot of times people want us. Yeah, and it's a real challenge. It's, this is a real challenge and our hearts go out, but Right. Tammie? Marbella, what are your thoughts? Tammie Sebastian: If you don't mind, Marbella. Do you mind if I, because I can answer. Go ahead, Iggy. Back off of, yeah, I can piggyback off of that. I, It was interesting because, you had said at the beginning that we, did a, had a training years ago, and it ties into what you're saying. You're not filing for the for the sake of filing. It's whether it's, in the best interest of the family. I. that would go to say that you would love to be proactive in the process and and I think actually having us here today speaks volumes to that. Me, as the person who needs to bring in statewide presenters, I think I would love to bring you guys in, to do some statewide webinars. And maybe collaborate on some trainings. So that's, Susan Stone: That would be our way of Wonderful. Yeah. Yeah. We would love to train people to advocate. It's a, if you's great. Thanks Tammie. For sure. Yeah. This was incredible. Ladies, do you have any final parting words that you would wanna share? And we'll send you this podcast so you can share it around. Because I think we've touched on a lot of important issues. Tammie Sebastian: We have. Marbella, did you wanna go since you were, Marbella Cáceres: I just want to tell parents, if they're listening to this, that every day is a day of an opportunity to know a little bit more of what you know, what you knew the day before. Cause sometimes as parents will feel guilty of not knowing what is the right thing to do for our children. I tell my, my families, you know your child better. And we always repeat that anybody here you have the best interest in the child. And go by your gut instinct. As mothers we're very unique, situated. God give us an extra sixth sense to follow that direction. So I just wanna encourage parents, if they have questions, anything that we can do as an agency for them. We are here to support you and empower you every way possible. Tammie Sebastian: And I would just say the same thing. I would just just go a little bit deeper and say, that if you think, like Marbella said, she said if you have that gut instinct to go on it, it never hurts to get the information. And sometimes it's just coming to get some information and empowering yourself. Opening yourselves up to that. And I also wanna put, if you don't mind our intake, number out there, so please, that way please. yeah, so it's 1-844-382-5452 and you will be connected with Martha Lausé. She is our intake referral specialist. And so anywhere in Ohio you're at, she'll be able you to direct you. Like Marbella said, we cover the entire state of Ohio. There's not a language out there. we don't turn anybody away that a language out there that we don't serve. And again, just thank you guys for giving us the opportunity to reach parents. Because that's always that's always the challenge is we get parents that come to us and say, I wish I would've known about you guys. And it's so hard for us to hear. So this helps us with our outreach. And then I'll hand it over to Lisa. Susan Stone: And this is our podcast is our way of really talking about the issues that need to be talked about. Opening up up the idea of resources, opening up minds. And so for those parents who need free or and affordable resources. We are so grateful to the coalition. Lisa, what are your thoughts? Lisa Lutz: I just wanna thank you for having us and,tell parents that w we're here, we're, we are here for you and, we're here for your child. We want the best for them. And, we will help you learn to be their best advocate. Susan Stone: And, again, we would, Kristina and I would love to come in and train people to be self-advocates. So thank you for that idea. Kristina Supler: This was a real treat. Thank you for taking time out to speak with us today.
In today's digital age, data privacy and security have become critical concerns for companies of all sizes. One way for companies to demonstrate their commitment to protecting customer data is by achieving SOC-2 compliance. But what exactly is SOC-2, and how can companies achieve it? To answer these questions, Daniel Wong, Head of Security and Compliance at Skyflow, joins the show to share his insights into SOC-2 compliance and the steps companies can take to achieve it. Throughout the interview, Daniel explains what SOC-2 compliance is, why it's important, and how it differs from other compliance standards. He also walks us through the key steps businesses can take to achieve SOC-2 compliance, including risk assessment, gap analysis, and remediation. Daniel also highlights the benefits of using Skyflow's platform to achieve SOC-2 compliance, such as its ability to help companies protect sensitive data while still enabling secure data sharing. He also discusses the challenges that businesses may face when pursuing SOC-2 compliance and how to overcome them. Whether you're a business owner or a data privacy professional, this interview with Daniel Wong provides valuable insights into SOC-2 compliance and how to achieve it. Topics: Can you explain what SOC-2 compliance is, and why it's important for businesses to achieve it What's the difference between SOC-2 Type 1 and Type 2? How do these compare to ISO 27001? How does SOC-2 compliance differ from other compliance standards, such as PCI DSS or HIPAA? What are some common challenges that businesses face when pursuing SOC-2 compliance, and how can they overcome them? Can you walk us through the key steps that businesses need to take to achieve SOC-2 compliance? Skyflow Data Privacy Vault is SOC-2 compliant, how long did that take and what was involved? What's that mean for our customers that want to achieve SOC-2 compliance? What advice would you give to businesses that are just starting their SOC-2 compliance journey? With something like a car, I can't just manufacture a car in my house and start selling it. There's certain inspections from a safety perspective that I have to pass. Do you think software needs more requirements like this before you can just launch something and start having people use it? Where do you see standards like SOC-2 going in the future?

EPISODE 84 | Sound Advice: A440 vs. A432 Guest: Andrew Currie, Owner & Lead Sound Engineer of Mechanizer Studios Today, most musicians use 440Hz as the reference pitch for orchestras, but they use to use all sorts of different ones, especially 432Hz. Wow, that's interesting, I guess. But even something as seemingly innocuous as international musical pitch standards can be fair game for the conspirasphere. Sure, maybe the switch happened because of the physical properties of musical instruments as they warm up. Or maybe it was all part of a plan to separate humanity from the healing frequencies of the universe, making us both more aggressive and more docile. And maybe this evil plan was hatched by none other than Reich Minister of Propaganda for the Nazis, Joseph Goebbels. Like what we do?

In this episode of the Ern and Iso podcast, the duo had originally planned to close out their "What's your rank?" series. However, the conversation takes a turn when Ern goes on a passionate rant about the harmful effects of one-dimensional thinking on both men and women. He talks about how some men feel the need to be number one but fail to live up to the expectations of a top-ranked person, especially in terms of intimacy. Ern and Iso then engage in a light-hearted discussion about the "missionary mindset" and how it can limit a person's perspective and experiences. While this may not be the episode listeners were expecting, it is a much-needed conversation about breaking free from limiting beliefs and exploring new possibilities. Tune in to this thought-provoking episode to gain valuable insights into how you can expand your mindset and enhance your relationships.

The How of Business - How to start, run & grow a small business.
Risk Management for Small Business with John Morlan, an insurance and risk management industry expert with over 20 years of experience. John shares his experiences with helping small businesses reduce their risks, creating safer and more productive work environments, and potentially reducing the ever-rising cost of business insurance. He started his risk control career with ISO (Insurance Service Office). After five years at ISO, he consulted independently for another seven years. During that time, he provided safety consulting services for some of the largest insurers in the country. Next, he worked one-on-one with businesses to develop and implement safety and risk control programs. The result was a 50-80% reduction in their insurance premiums, saving them millions. Most recently, he launched Smarter Risk, which has developed a self-serve app that automates the development of these programs. This solution helps small businesses adopt risk control programs that drive down claims, enabling organizations to qualify for the best rates and allowing insurers to offer premium pricing.

The blitzscaling funding model failed news companies. Vice Media — which raised more than $1 billion from the likes of TPG, Technology Crossover Ventures, and Disney — is reportedly preparing to file for bankruptcy. BuzzFeed — which raised hundreds of millions of dollars from investors like Andreessen Horowitz, General Atlantic, and NBCUniversal — just shut down its news division and has watched its stock price sink 95% since going public via a SPAC.Meanwhile, Gawker, which successfully avoided the cash-burning approach, was brought down in a lawsuit funded by tech billionaire Peter Thiel.

(Of course, for all his insistence that that spendy era of media is over, Smith is the co-founder of Semafor, a company that raised $25 million — including about $10 million from Sam Bankman-Fried — to build a new digital media business.)I invited Smith on the podcast to talk about his new book. I started the discussion by going back to David Carr's 2012 profile of BuzzFeed. Carr wrote at the time:[W]ith the addition of Mr. Smith and his new hires, BuzzFeed is growing some serious news muscles under a silly, frilly skin, and added the header “2012” for election coverage. (More traditional news verticals will be rolled out in the coming months.) It's gone well so far, with comScore showing 10.8 million unique visitors in December, more than double that of the same month in 2010.Its business model, in part, capitalizes on the mix of high and low content; instead of banner ads, BuzzFeed works with companies like Pillsbury to create content ideal for sharing, including “10 Things You Never Knew You Could Do With a Crescent Roll.”If it is successful, BuzzFeed will generate the kind of traffic that will rival behemoths like, yes, The Huffington Post. Mr. Peretti says that BuzzFeed makes a profit some months, but given the level of investment and growth — there are now 78 people in its Flatiron offices — the burn rate on that new chunk of capital is significant. “It's fun to watch them make all these hires,” said Choire Sicha, the founder of The Awl site and a veteran of the New York Web scene. “But it's important that they don't overspend. Web ad rates are what they are and that isn't going to change.”Then I turned the conversation to former Gawker editor Max Read's review of Traffic. Read writes: In the end, only one character in “Traffic” can really be said to have any vision. In 2013, Disney CEO Bob Iger offered to buy BuzzFeed for $650 million. In the book's strangest and funniest scene, a nightmare blunt rotation of Smith, Peretti, BuzzFeed video chief Ze Frank and BuzzFeed president Jon Steinberg get high on a hotel balcony in Los Angeles and discuss the offer. Frank and Smith urge an ambivalent Peretti to turn down the offer, worrying that “Disney's corporate culture would stifle” Buzzfeed's creativity. Not so much Steinberg, the company's money man, who gets “down on his knees on the balcony to plead with Jonah to take the deal.”Frank and Smith would go on to win the argument; they and Peretti saw BuzzFeed's monster traffic as the key to their dreams of a burgeoning, independent media empire. As we now know, they were wrong. Steinberg is far from a genius — after leaving BuzzFeed, he joined the Daily Mail's U.S. operation, and then founded the cosmically annoying CNBC-for-millennials brand “Cheddar,” whose videos can be found on gas pumps across the country — but he alone managed to see that traffic for what it really was: the “pump” phase of a pump-and-dump scheme that Peretti never had the vision to complete.In my conversation with him, Smith, the former media columnist for the New York Times, also offered his thoughts on the upcoming presidential primary and Tucker Carlson's departure from Fox News.

Wednesday is do-or-die time for the Cleveland Cavaliers. "Must-win" is an overused phrase in sports, but the Cavs find themselves officially in must-win territory, facing an elimination game against the New York Knicks down 3-1 with Game 5 on Wednesday night at 7 p.m. EDT in Cleveland. Chris Fedor joins Ashley Bastock to discuss how the Cavs have gotten themselves here in the latest episode of the Wine and Gold Talk Podcast. The two dig into the Xs and Os of how the Knicks have been able to limit some of what the Cavs do best, including the rebounding disparity in the series, and Jalen Brunson's effectiveness in ISO situations. They also discuss some of the biggest questions they have heading into Game 5, most notably with Cleveland's rotation. Finally, the duo talks about what it takes to come back from a 3-1 deficit -- something Cavs fans are very familiar with already. Want to become a Cavs Insider?

In the dimly lit dining area of Oscar Christiansan's heavily fortified penthouse, Mavis and ISO stand wearily in front of a cold metal blast door, their bodies battered, bruised, and creaking from over-exertion. Mavis steadies herself against the polished metal of Oscar's safe room, her breath ragged and adrenaline still coursing through her veins. The sharp smell of gunpowder and blood fills her nose as she takes a deep breath, and the sensory reminders kick-start something inside Mavis' memory...
In Episode 1388, Sean Woodley goes solo to quickly address the news of Ime Udoka getting hired by the Houston Rockets and thus no longer being in the running to replace Nick Nurse with the Toronto Raptors, before diving into the 2022-23 season of Pascal Siakam and what comes next for him. Siakam was better than ever this year, and turned in one of the best individual seasons in Toronto Raptors franchise history. He remains a good ISO and post-up hub, and is still comortably the best player on the team. But will the fit issues with the Scottie Barnes, Pascal Siakam and Jakob Poeltl front court force the Raptors front office to make a tough decision regarding the two-time All-NBA forward who is up for a pivotal extension this summer? Could a new coach weaponize Siakam as an off-ball scorer akin to what he was back from 2018 through 2020? And does the Siakam-Barnes-Jak trio need one more year to see if the fit can be massaged -- ideally with a three-point shooting uptick on the part of Siakam? Lastly, Sean examines the two potential roads the team could go down with Pascal this summer. Extend or trade? What are the arguments both ways? And why does a trade make less sense this summer than it might make sense if Siakam were on a longer term contract? All that, plus a Discord listener question about Siakam's odds of finishing Top-5 in MVP voting some day.

The Ern and Iso show is back with a brand new episode titled "What's Your Rank PT 2". In this episode, the duo delves deeper into the topic of how women rank men based on their own criteria sets. Building upon the success of the first part, the show explores the nuances of how a woman's ranking of a man doesn't necessarily equate to him being her number one choice. Ern and Iso discuss recent incidents where men have been asking their partners about their ranking and how it has affected them. Iso offers valuable insights and reassurance to men, explaining that not being ranked as a woman's number one is not a measure of one's worth or desirability. She emphasizes that every woman has her own set of criteria, and her top pick may be someone who is deceased or has moved on from her, with no intention of coming back. Through their witty banter and informative discussions, Ern and Iso provide a refreshing perspective on the dynamics of relationships and how they are not simply black and white. Their show continues to be a beacon of light for listeners who seek to understand the intricacies of the human experience. Tune in to "What's Your Rank PT 2" and join in on the conversation!

Clinical Trial Podcast | Conversations with Clinical Research Experts
In this episode, we're going to talk about Postmarket Surveillance Studies. In light of the EU Medical Device Regulation (MDR), medical device manufacturers are required to implement a Postmarket Surveillance (PMS) plan, which in turn may require them to conduct Postmarket Surveillance Studies. The importance of such studies has grown in recent years as regulators want to know about the safety and effectiveness during the lifetime of a medical device. To learn about Postmarket Surveillance Studies regulatory requirements, process for collecting clinical data for such studies, key elements of PMS plan, and more, I invited Dr. David Rutledge on the podcast. David is the President & CEO at Global Strategic Solutions, where he works as a global consultant for clinical evaluations, clinical risk management, regulatory, quality, and clinical investigations. David brings over 25 years of experience and knowledge in product-level analysis, clinical protocol and case report form development, scientific data analysis, organizational design, integration of science with business needs, quality management systems, signal detection, global clinical evaluations, clinical risk management, and regulatory affairs. David is Six Sigma and CAPA certified, an ISO 13485 lead auditor, and author of Mythical Medical™: Revelations from a Global Product Approval Consultant. * This podcast is brought to you by Florence Healthcare.

Throughout the series, we have been discussing the INNOVATION ROADMAP™ and its application in Medical Device Development. In previous episodes, we explored the first two stops on this journey, which did not require deployment under FDA-QSR and ISO-13485 Design Controls and Risk Management. These stops allowed us to investigate the market, identify opportunities, and refine them through exploratory technology investigations and interactive MVP breadboarding. In this episode, we are joined by Wolfgang Huber, Co-Founder of Matrix Requirements, who has created a unique and effective cloud-based tool to support companies in the process we discuss. Follow the INNOVATION ROADMAP™ to Stop 3 by listening to this episode.

Pivot the conversation to a purely financial decision, where an investment of a few hundred or a few thousand dollars can generate awesome returns through dual pricing. There are three ways I see these type of deals getting done. The merchant pays early termination and other costs incurred breaking the contract, and recoups multiples of that amount by eliminating most of their interchange costs. The merchant and agent share the quantifiable costs of breaking a contract and any needed upgrades to the merchant's POS solution, as well as returns on the investment. Ask your ISO/processor to cover the cost of breaking the merchant's existing contract and any required hardware and software upgrades. Or work out a deal where you pay back some or all of those costs to the ISO from future residuals. If your ISO or processor doesn't want to work with you on these type deals, it may be time to start looking for a new partner.
"There's a move towards digital transformation. And there's two aspects of that. There's digitisation and there's digitalization." "If it's digitized, you're simply taking, like a hardcopy, and you're scanning it near attaching it to a record of some sort." "By digitalizing, it, I'm actually putting it in a format that the computer can process. It's much more efficient..." In this episode, I'm in conversation with Tony Ciliberti, who is the founder of Reliability Dynamics. Tony is an authority on digitalization of equipment operating data, which is near and dear to my heart. Without good data, you can't really get the full benefits of digitalization. Worse, poor quality reliability data costs money, and carbon, as engineers have to drive to visit facilities when they don't need to. Better quality reliability data pays back very quickly. "[Reliability] means is being able to make equipment perform better by having the information necessary to make better decisions for the equipment." Tony Ciliberti is the Founder and Principal of Reliability Dynamics. He is a chemical engineer with 30 years of experience in equipment reliability and risk management in the petrochemical and oil and gas industries. He is an authority on data digitalization and the application of ISO 14224 methods. He developed and patented engineering methods that resolve pervasive equipment performance data quality issues in EAM solutions. He chairs the CCPS Process Equipment Reliability Database (PERD) Project. He participates actively in ISO technical standards development as the ANSI-appointed US Expert in ISO/TC67/WG4/PG1 and is a contributing author of the ISO 14224:2016 standard. He teaches the ISO course on how to apply ISO 14224 in enterprise software. "If I'm thinking that I'm gonna get information from the field, and I want to be able to validate it with a system, which I do, right, I've got to make sure that the data requirements aligned with the type of work."

"What's Your Rank?" is an episode of the Ern and Iso show that explores the complex world of relationships and rankings. In this episode, Ern and Iso continue a conversation from their previous Q&A session where they discussed a man who discovered that his wife had been contacted by an old flame on Instagram, and she had replied that he was the love of her life. Iso takes the conversation further by explaining that women often have ranking systems for men, and just because a man is with a woman or married to her does not necessarily mean that he is her number one. Women may choose partners for various reasons, such as survival or routine, which may not necessarily coincide with their ranking system. As the show progresses, Ern and Iso delve into the upcoming HULU Freaknik documentary and discuss the Greek picnic, which was similar to Freaknik but located in Philadelphia. The hosts leave their audience with thought-provoking ideas about relationships, ranking systems, and how to navigate the complexities of modern-day romance.

In April this year UTD went through an audit with EUF, the European Underwater Federation and received certification that the UTD training systems are in compliance with ISO standards. ISO, the International Organization for Standardization, creates standards for many industries, including scuba training. However ISO does not certify or confirm that a company is operating with the scope of those standards. That's where the EUF comes in. EUF is a certification agency that certifies that scuba training agencies are meeting ISO standards.Which all means this is a big deal for UTD.In this episode Jeff sits down with EUF auditor Martin Denison to talk about ISO, EUF, the audit, the certification process, and how UTD met compliance.

Welcome to the Ern and Iso podcast! In today's episode, we're talking about a fascinating show called 1-800-DIXXMAN. This show centers around a man who has an incredible expertise in the bedroom, and his services are only used by women seeking sexual satisfaction. Now, you might be thinking that this guy isn't as smart as your go-to person for intellectual conversations, or as charming as your favorite entertainer. But make no mistake - he is just as important in a woman's roundtable of men. In fact, some women become addicted to this person, and are even given a special title - "PIPER" - if they exhibit certain symptoms. If you or someone you know is experiencing these symptoms, it's important to seek help. We must give credit to rapper Kevin Gates, who has coined the term "DIXXMAN" to refer to this type of person.

Locked On Giants – Daily Podcast On The San Francisco Giants
The San Francisco Giants didn't just lose to the Los Angeles Dodgers last night—they were embarrassed, again, by their rivals. The Giants-Dodgers rivalry has been one-sided since the Dodgers defeated the SF Giants in the NLDS in 2021. Last night, the San Francisco Giants lost 9-1 despite having their ace, Logan Webb, on the mound. A couple of trends have emerged for the Giants. Their strikeout rate as an offense is the highest by far of any major league team. The good news is that it's likely not going to stay that way, since several players are simply striking out at a much higher rate than their career averages, and we should expect them to regress toward the mean. Also, the Giants have managed to be among the league leaders in key offensive metrics like wRC+, wOBA, OBP, SLG, and ISO despite the high K rate. However, in addition to the strikeouts, the run scoring has been very inconsistent. On the pitching side, the only things holding the Giants back are a high HR/FB ratio and a low left-on-base percentage—two metrics that are slow to stabilize, particularly the HR/FB ratio. The Giants led the majors with the fewest home runs allowed in each of the last two seasons, but this year so far they're near the top. That very likely won't last, and their other numbers (like K%, BB%, and GB%) look strong. Find and follow Locked On Giants on your favorite podcast platforms:
