We all struggle with unhealthy attachments to something. For many men, it's alcohol, sex, or pornography. For some it might be gambling, sports, or the appearance of power. No matter what your struggle is, odds are good it's really only a symptom of some deeper problem that God wants to bring healing to. If you don't fix a broken foundation of a house first, nothing else will really work. Join me in this episode as Mr. John Bacon shares his story of chasing the "goods" of the world. He found his way into many addictions and was saved by finding the Lord. He has since spent decades working in addiction recovery centers, helping many others to escape. If you cannot love yourself, you cannot be free.

On LET THEM LEAD, we talk about leading others. But what about leading ourselves? In 2020, John Bacon ran 700 miles, lost 35 pounds, and designed his own marathon. The key: Just put your shoes on. On my 55th birthday in July, 2019, I tipped the scales at 205. Not healthy when you're 5-foot-8, and not smart when you have a three-year old son. So I started running, and only eating when I was actually hungry. 35 pounds and 700 miles later, I was prepared to run the Boston Marathon, when Covid-19 postponed it.What do you do? I decided to create my own marathon, designed to see everything I care about in my hometown – starting at my parents' home, running past my schools, parks, rinks, and friends' homes, and ending on the other side of town at our home, with my wife and 4-year old son Teddy waiting for me at the finish. What I didn't expect was 100 people to come out and cheer me on every mile along the way, and 30-40 to run or bike alongside (at a safe distance!). In 2000 we were very hungry for even a little bit of good news, inspiration, and connection – and maybe we still are.The story has appeared in the Washington Post, National Public Radio, the BBC's “Stories of Hope” (it runs from 27:30-34:30, with a cameo by my 4-year old son, Teddy, Detroit News, Michigan Radio, the Clarin newspaper chain, Argentina's main media outlet, and Folha, Brazil's biggest newspaper chain.Hope you enjoy it. For info about the book or this podcast please visit our website:http://www.letthemleadbybacon.comhttp://www.johnubacon.comYou can connect with John via these platforms:https://www.facebook.com/johnubaconhttps://twitter.com/Johnubacon

With a fruitful medical practice as an orthopedic surgeon, John Bacon really had no reason to become an artist. But while on vacation and at the urging of his wife, they took a painting class together and he found a love for putting paint to canvas. He decided to pursue life as an artist as he was heading toward retirement from medicine. Making the wise choice to take a course on painting, Dr. Bacon grew in his depth and knowledge of color in ways that can be experienced through his wild abstractions. Having his art represented in galleries across Europe has given him as much pleasure as spending hours in his studio creating the art. We are also thrilled and grateful to share John Bacon's playful work in an exclusive collection in the Art Unknown Store. So, enjoy this captivating interview and enjoy his art; on the canvas and on our clothing. images: ©john bacon - used with permission john bacon instagram john bacon collection - art unknown store MORE ART UNKNOWN PODCASTS.fusion-portfolio-wrapper#fusion-portfolio-1 .fusion-portfolio-content{ padding: 25px 25px 25px 25px; text-align: center; }.fusion-portfolio-1 .fusion-portfolio-wrapper .fusion-col-spacing{padding:20px;}Crave Magazine2022-02-14T08:10:16-07:00 Ep54 John Bacon Ep54 John BaconCrave Magazine2022-01-13T16:18:18-07:00 Ep53 Heidi Luerra Ep53 Heidi LuerraCrave Magazine2021-11-18T08:12:58-07:00 Ep52 Murat Germen Ep52 Murat GermenCrave Magazine2021-10-15T08:49:37-06:00 Ep51 Monalicious Ep51 MonaliciousCrave Magazine2021-10-08T13:41:28-06:00 Ep50 Jim Wills – part 2 Ep50 Jim Wills – part 2Crave Magazine2021-09-28T15:59:08-06:00 Ep49 Angel Espino Ep49 Angel EspinoCrave Magazine2021-09-28T12:32:43-06:00 Ep48 Jesse Doyle Ep48 Jesse DoyleCrave Magazine2021-08-11T05:02:21-06:00 Ep47 Mary Bue Ep47 Mary BueCrave Magazine2021-09-04T15:29:41-06:00 Ep46 Kelly Marie | Messy Ever After Ep46 Kelly Marie | Messy Ever AfterCrave Magazine2021-09-04T15:30:29-06:00 Ep45 Steven Dossou Ep45 Steven DossouCrave Magazine2021-05-26T09:14:03-06:00 Ep44 Elizabeth Lo Ep44 Elizabeth LoCrave Magazine2021-05-12T12:33:26-06:00 Ep43 Anna Murphy Ep43 Anna MurphyCrave Magazine2021-05-11T09:02:36-06:00 Ep42 Zialand Ep42 ZialandCrave Magazine2021-09-04T15:13:01-06:00 Ep41 Cole Scheifele Ep41 Cole ScheifeleCrave Magazine2021-05-04T17:38:51-06:00 Ep40 Jensen Sutta-Part 2 Ep40 Jensen Sutta-Part 2Crave Magazine2021-03-11T09:04:41-07:00 Ep39 Jensen Sutta-Part 1 Ep39 Jensen Sutta-Part 1Crave Magazine2021-03-01T15:35:10-07:00

When you think about payroll, it is certainly an important part of your business. But what are some of the pitfalls and traps you should be aware of? John Bacon, President of PayThrive stops by to teach us about how this important aspect of running your business isn't as scary as it might sound but provides us with insight into what we should be doing right now. Bio: John S. Bacon is the president & founder of PayThrive. He was born & raised in the Detroit metro area & moved to Colorado in 2004. He currently live in the Metro Denver area with my wife and daughter. He worked briefly in the supplemental benefits space & was a group health insurance broker for a time. He then became an independent sales representative in the payroll / HCM industry, forming his own consulting company in September of 2006. Being independent & a business owner gave him a unique perspective because most industry sales professionals were employee or ‘captive' salespeople. He saw an opportunity to disrupt this dysfunction & empower the client with choices. Small to medium sized businesses needed more options & better advice when seeking a new payroll vendor. He wanted to increase candor & reduce conflict of interest – something that would benefit the industry & clients both. He truly felt that clients would greatly value this approach & see it as liberation. This was the genesis of the PayThrive business model. PayThrive was born, with Human Capital Gains, Realized.

Entering her 38th season at the University of Michigan, Carol Hutchins is just six wins away from winning more games than any softball coach at any level, nationwide. Though she couldn't guess it within a hundred, her win total currently stands at 1,631, with 31 Big Ten season and tournament titles, 18 regional NCAA crowns, 12 appearances in the College Softball World Series, and the NCAA title in 2005 – the only Eastern and Northern school to do so, the equivalent of Alabama winning a Division I hockey title. She has been named Big Ten Coach of the Year 17 times, and twice nationally, but what's more impressive is how she's done it: getting young women to take responsibility for themselves, realize they're accountable to each other, not just her, and never forgetting it's an honor, not a privilege, to be a part of the team. As one of her players said, “I came here a girl with potential and left here a woman with no limits." Hutchins is proudest of the fact her players have gone onto do great things far beyond softball.Let Them Lead is a podcast about the risks and rewards of leading today.I'm John Bacon, author of the book, LET THEM LEAD: Unexpected Lessons in Leadership from America's Worst High School Hockey Team, which led to this podcast. On Let Them Lead we talk to remarkable leaders from every field imaginable –automotive, computers, food service, education, and athletics, to name a few – and they share their hard-won wisdom, amazing stories, and a few laughs.

John Bacon and Father Daniel Kirk discuss human beings in light of Genesis 1-2 and the Catholic Church's teaching. What does Scripture mean when it says that men and women are created in God's image? What does the image of God consist of? Why is the image of God both male and female? Consider these questions and many more as we explore what it means to be human.

To get to his current post, as Vice-President of a 250-store chain, Tim Williams beat the odds repeatedly. Born and raised in inner-city Milwaukee, Williams earned an academic scholarship to a Catholic boys' school, then an athletic scholarship at the University of Michigan, where he started as linebacker and won three Big Ten titles. But Williams declined his fifth year, and a shot at pro football, to enter UM's law school, and later turned down bigger money in private practice to become Vice-President at Meijer. Contrary to conventional wisdom, Williams preaches that diversity and inclusion entails more than race, gender, and ethnicity, and embracing it is a smart business strategy. Let Them Lead is a podcast about the risks and rewards of leading today.I'm John Bacon, author of the book, LET THEM LEAD: Unexpected Lessons in Leadership from America's Worst High School Hockey Team, which led to this podcast. On Let Them Lead we talk to remarkable leaders from every field imaginable –automotive, computers, food service, education, and athletics, to name a few – and they share their hard-won wisdom, amazing stories, and a few laughs.

Text LEARNERS to 44222 for more... Full show notes at www.LearningLeader.com Twitter/IG: @RyanHawk12  https://twitter.com/RyanHawk12 John Bacon has written twelve books on sports, business, health, and history, the last seven all National Bestsellers. His latest book is "LET THEM LEAD: Unexpected Lessons in Leadership from America's Worst High School Hockey Team."  Notes: Be Patient with Results, Not Behavior - Accept where you are to get where you want to go. Be present so you can own your attention and energy. Be patient and you'll get there faster. Embrace vulnerability to develop genuine strength and confidence. Build deep community over efficiency and optimization. Move your body to ground your mind Reduce Your Rules, but Make Them Stick - Make your rules few, clear, and connected to your larger mission. They have to be within everyone's control to follow every day. When your people start enforcing the rules themselves, the culture has changed. To make it special to be on your team, make it hard to be on your team. The people who apply to the Navy SEALS and the Peace Corps are attracted to the difficulty. They know not everyone can make it, and that's what makes it special You can't motivate people you don't know - Leadership doesn't require rousing speeches; it requires that you get to know your people.  The more power you give, the more you get -Select leaders for their ability to lead, not their ability to do the job they used to have. Leaders must know their jobs, know how to do their jobs, know everyone else's jobs, and help them all do their jobs better! This is how you create “layers of leadership,” which benefits everyone, and keeps you from burning out. All credit goes to your people - If you give away the credit and accept the blame, you'll be rewarded with loyalty. If your team succeeds, you will always get more credit than you need. “The reward of a job well done is to have done it.” John's two initial goals when he took over the worst team in the state: Be the hardest working team in the state Win a state title On day 1, he set high standards -- Previously, they were 0-22-3 "Make no small plans, they lack the power to stir people's souls." John Bacon's two rules: Work hard Support your teammates "Behaviors you can always control, performance and outcomes you can't." Life advice: Focus on yourself first Work hard and support your teammates

He rose to become the youngest CEO of Steelcase furniture at the ripe age of 39, turning the Fortune 500 around during trying times. After two decades, he accepted the University of Michigan's invitation to return as interim athletic director – “Some jobs are for God and country,” as he explains -- then became Ford Motor Company's CEO, one of the world's biggest leadership jobs. One of his takeaways: “The softest pillow in the world is a clean conscience.”

When Richard speaks to MBA students, he tells them that their careers will really start after they've been fired the first time. This gets their attention – and it got ours. It happened to Sheridan when he was 43, with a wife and three young daughters,  and he got the call that his software company would be eliminating his position.  But from that low point came his best idea: Menlo Innovations, a completely different kind of software company, one they founded on an almost foreign concept: joy – joy for the creators, the users, and the sponsors. “Joy is the goal,” he says, and the high customer satisfaction, low turnover, and strong profits, happy byproducts. Almost everything your company probably does, Menlo does the opposite. Connect with Richard:https://www.linkedin.com/in/menloprez/https://twitter.com/menloprez?lang=enhttps://richardsheridan.com/

What is Theology? What is catechesis? Join Roman Catholic catechist, John Bacon, and Ukranian-Greek Catholic priest, Father Daniel, as they introduce this season of Thirty Minute Theology.

John U. Bacon is a veteran journalist and book-author. He has written on a variety of subjects, especially sports—sports at the University of Michigan, in particular. He and Jay grew up together (though on rival teams) in Ann Arbor. The athletic department at the U of M is now beset by scandal. Problems in Ann Arbor are ones being experienced all across the country. They have to do with racism, sexual abuse, the removing of names and statues, etc. John Bacon handles all these subjects with exceptional care and expertise. He and Jay also talk a bit about the old days, and the question: Should college athletes be paid? Much to chew on.

In this episode of Seated2Serve, host Jeff Bickerstaff talks with John Bacon, owner of local DFW Bacon Roofing, about the roofer-insurance relationship on behalf of homeowners. In the roofing business there are widely held misunderstandings about how to get a great deal on a roof repair or replacement. Most homeowners have a difficult time telling the real thing from a fraud, especially when it looks like they can whittle the price or deductible down.Who doesn't want a great deal on an expensive replacement? Every roofer knows their customer wants to come out ahead. A trustworthy roofing company will take the time to outline the situation for the homeowner, and work with their insurance agent to make sure every necessary structural, functional, and cosmetic need is met.Have trouble trusting that roofer-insurance relationship? Listen in, this was eye-opening for the entire studio audience. What you think is a great deal could very well be an overpriced hunk of junk, coming in at a price they'll have to cut serious corners to perform.To connect with Bacon Roofing, go to BaconRoofing.com, and find them on Twitter, Facebook, and Instagram.

Why is non-dues revenue important to associations? In addition to supporting year-round programming and keeping member dues low, non-dues revenue (the kind of revenue your association can earn from any source other than membership dues) helps associations expand programming as well as expand their membership roll. This month, Kaydee Brown and Kelly Clark talk with Tara Ericson, Group Vice President for Member Communications at Naylor Association Solutions, and John Bacon, a group publisher also with Naylor, about the ways asosciations can earn more revenue that will support their mission and goals. We cover ways of earning more revenue including the sale of advertising space in publications, charging for exhibit space at an event, and collecting fees to view content from an educational course or your association's conferences and workshops.

Good Afternoon everyone and welcome to another edition of The Avid Reader. Today our guest is John Bacon author of The Great Halifax explosion: A World War I Story of Treachery, Tragedy, and Extraordinary Heroism, published in November by William Morrow. Mr. Bacon has worked for the past two decades as a writer, public speaker and a college instructor. He has written for NYT and Time magazine. His previous works, primarily dealing in sports, include: Three and Out Fourth and Long End zone The great Halifax Explosion is something that not many of us have heard about although it was the largest conflagration caused by a weapon of mass destruction aside from the bombs dropped on Hiroshima and Nagasaki, including that hallmark of a mushroom cloud and a shock wave. After having left NY on December 1, 1917, the munitions ship Mont-Blanc, full of three thousand tons of TNT and other even more volatile explosives, made its perilous way from New York up the dangerous waters of the Atlantic Coast, always on the lookout for the accurate and almost ubiquitous German U-boats. Although it escaped storms and U-boats, it did not escape incompetence and enormous risk and, as it approached the port city of Halifax, it exploded with the force of 2.9 Kilotons of TNT-the most powerful explosion ever seen or heard by human beings whose lives were destroyed or ruined, other than, as I remarked, Hiroshima and Nagasaki. The ship itself was vaporized in 1/15th of a second. A shockwave leveled the city. But it was what happened afterward that is so astounding. So let’s talk to John about this incredible story.
