Power Quote: I noticed… and I wonder…Description:Welcome to the third and final part of my interview with Elena Aguilar. Today we dive into how we can reconnect people with their sense of power – building teacher self-efficacy through reflective questions. Decades of research identifies teacher self-efficacy – the belief that what teachers do has an impact on student learning – as the bedrock for good teaching. Recent research suggest a large part of the leader's impact on student growth (which is second only to the teacher's impact) is a result of the leader's ability to build teacher self-efficacy. So, today's episode offers some essential information and techniques to unlocking teachers' potential and fulfilling your leadership purpose.Show IntroSponsor Spot 1:Being an assistant principal means that safety is a quadrant 1 activity – in your building and beyond its walls.

I love this episode because it contains a call to dig deeply into ourselves as leaders and give some very practical advice on how to help teachers.

In this episode of Talk of Fame, Kylie Montigney talks with Annie Scherer! Annie Scherer merges her love of rock ‘n roll classics with her passion for alternative music to produce her own unique sound. Her evocative lyrics and haunting melodies have been heard live from New York to Tennessee.  In May 2025, Annie had the honor of performing at the 40th Annual Harvard Mayfair in the heart of Harvard University. She also celebrated her Chinese American heritage with her performance at the CMP gala in New York, NY and the Boston International Asian Music Festival. Annie is currently gearing up to release her EP this fall.  In 2023, Annie was the runner-up in Lightning 100's Music City Mayhem competition in Nashville, which had 430+ entries. The finale included a performance at 3rd & Lindsley, where the five remaining artists battled it out live. First and second place were determined by voters and judges, including some of Nashville's top music industry members. Following the competition, Annie performed at the annual festival series, Musician's Corner in Nashville. She played the festival again on the main stage in 2024. Annie's single, "Everywhere I Go (Everybody's the Same)" earned her the #1 spot on aBreak Music, the number one music platform for independent artists, in August 2023. The song was aired internationally via iHeart Radio, and received press coverage throughout the nation.  Annie released her first full-length album “Garden Bed” in March 2021. The album features previously released singles, "Andy Warhol," "Take Me Places," and "After Rain," along with six brand new tracks. Annie wrote and produced all the songs. Garden Bed showcases her skills as a composer and multi-instrumentalist, performing the trumpet, piano, guitar, and ukulele, while arranging string quartet scores for songs like "Kaleidoscope" and "Ashamed." The album was widely praised by American Songwriters, the Times Union in Albany, NY, and NYS Music. A month after its release, Annie was voted the best local musician in New York's Capital Region according to readers of the Times Union.  In 2020, three of Annie's songs, including "Kaleidoscope," "After Rain," and "Roses and Lies" received honorable mentions at the international and notable songwriting competition, SongDoor. "After Rain" was selected for special recognition. Annie was awarded the 2018 Producer's Choice for the 'Celebration of Music' PBS special in Troy, NY, hosted by Ethan Bortnick. She won a trip to LA where she was taped performing "Andy Warhol."    Annie's musical career began at age six, when she started classical piano lessons. She devoted 12 years to classical performance. At seven, she wrote her first song, a holiday tune that she sang for a two-person audience: her mom and music teacher. By age 12, Annie had taught herself guitar, and started gigging and writing more seriously.  In addition to her musical aspirations, she is a visual artist and practices with charcoal portraits. She is also a fashion model with Rune Models.Listen in as we discuss Annie's  journey and her new music.

Could the brain rewire itself for lasting transformation? Are we missing the root cause of attention, anxiety, and learning challenges?   In this episode of Kaleidoscope of Possibilities – Alternative Perspectives on Mental Health, Dr. Adriana Popescu sits down with Dr. Connie McReynolds, licensed psychologist, certified rehabilitation counselor, and expert in neurofeedback. With decades of experience in helping clients address ADHD, trauma, learning challenges, and more, Dr. Connie introduces a radically different way to look at these issues—not as permanent disorders, but as patterns that can be changed. Together, they explore how understanding auditory and visual processing—and training the brain to function differently—can offer real and lasting transformation for children and adults alike. Dr. Connie's work is helping change the narrative around mental health, empowering people to recognize their potential and reclaim their lives.   In this episode: • What neurofeedback is and how it works to rewire the brain • The root causes of ADHD and why they are often misunderstood • How trauma, anxiety, and learning disabilities relate to brain processing • The importance of a personalized assessment to find hidden challenges • Why the brain can continue to improve and heal—even decades later • Real-life client success stories, from children with dyslexia to veterans with PTSD • How neurofeedback can reduce the need for medication and improve daily functioning • The crucial role of empowering clients beyond diagnostic labels   Resources mentioned in this episode: • Dr. Connie's website: https://www.conniemcreynolds.com • Dr. Connie's book: Solving the ADHD Riddle • Dr. Bessel van den Kolk's Book: The Body Keeps the Score   About Dr. Connie: Dr. Connie McReynolds is a Licensed Psychologist & Certified Rehabilitation Counselor with over 35 years of experience in rehabilitation counseling and psychology. She is the founder of neurofeedback clinics in Southern California, helping children and adults reduce or eliminate ADHD, anxiety, anger, depression, chronic pain, learning challenges, and trauma. Through groundbreaking research, Dr. Connie has uncovered the underlying cause of ADHD, offering solutions that address its root rather than just managing symptoms. Her work equips individuals, parents, and educators with powerful strategies to transform learning, focus, and daily life. A sought-after speaker, she is dedicated to lasting change.   “The implications are so vast and the possibilities are endless for how this work could really help people—and help our society as a whole.” – Dr. Connie   Would you like to continue this conversation and connect with other people who are interested in exploring these topics?

Power Quote: “How do you want me to listen?”Description:Today's guest is someone I consider to be a master at the art of coaching, which is appropriate as she wrote the best-selling book titled The Art of Coaching. I Had Elena Aguilar on the show a little over a year ago and we split the interview into two parts, episodes 204 and 205 (link in the show notes) because it was so rich and packed with powerful thoughts and techniques. This interview with Elena is even more dense – so much so that we are splitting it into three parts. In today's section Elena and I dive into listening and there is so much packed into the span of fifteen minutes that I decided to release it as a full episode. If you listen closely, you'll recognize that the discussion is embedded within the intro section of celebrations and stories. We didn't even get to the main interview before Elena shared some wisdom that I wanted to put on its own, for your benefit.After this conversation, I've added Elena's thoughts on “the one thing leaders should take away.” It is consistent with today's main topic, but I will also include it in each of the next two part of our discussion because it is so powerful I think we all, myself included, need to listen to it once a week.Sponsor Spot 1: I'd like to thank Kaleidoscope Adventures for sponsoring today's show.

Despite the different setting, the leadership lessons will sound familiar to you. I think this discussion with someone coming from a different place invites us to reexamine fundamental leadership themes from a slightly different perspective.Sponsor Spot 1:Administrators, you walk through classrooms, take notes, and you plan to follow up… but how much of that feedback actually reaches teachers in a meaningful way?With digiCOACH, you don't just observe—you coach in the moment.

Having successfully driven explosive growth for healthcare organizations—from start-ups to industry leaders — Jim is a trusted expert in building high-performing teams, revitalizing underperforming businesses, and guiding organizations through transformational change. Jim's core philosophy—leaders aren't born; they're developed—challenges the myth of innate leadership. In his book, The Six Pillars of Effective Leadership: A Roadmap to Success, Jim delivers a practical and inspiring guide for leaders at every stage of their journey. His approach focuses on six essential traits that empower individuals to embrace leadership as a skill that can be learned, honed, and mastered through experience, mentorship, and intentional growth.Warmup questions:We always like to start with a celebration. What are you celebrating today?Is there a story that will help listeners understand why you are doing what you do?Questions/Topics/PromptsYou've written a book based on your experiences and the leadership lessons you've learned from others.

I am really intrigued by this as my immediate reaction was, “aren't these the same thing?” Help me understand…You shared with me in our email exchange you had a story involving a middle school principal that related to empathy and compassion. Can you share it?Your background is in the private sector and I noticed you were a VP of Client Development for Health Management Systems. I've done some work with corporate leaders and have been amazed at how similar being a VP is to being a school administrator.

Building Gene's Dispensary: Community, Curation, and Creating New Art Spaces in Los Angeles with Keith J Varadi In this wide-ranging conversation on What's My Thesis?, host Javier Proenza welcomes artist, curator, and writer Keith J. Varadi, founder of Gene's Dispensary, for an illuminating discussion on forging alternative pathways in the contemporary art world. Through candid reflection, Varadi shares their journey from painting to sound art, music, and ultimately to the establishment of their independent gallery space in Los Angeles—a project that has rapidly become a vibrant hub for creative cross-pollination. Drawing on years of experience as both a practicing artist and an accomplished curator—with writing credits in Carla, Flash Art, Kaleidoscope, and Los Angeles Review of Books—Varadi discusses how health challenges, a deep commitment to community-building, and a rigorous interdisciplinary ethos led to the creation of Gene's Dispensary. Operating in the heart of Los Angeles at 2007 Wilshire Boulevard, Unit 820, Gene's Dispensary takes inspiration from DIY spaces, Black Mountain College, and the inclusive spirit of early L.A. dispensary culture. Over the course of the episode, Varadi reflects on studying at Rutgers and Virginia Commonwealth University, their experience living in New York and Pittsburgh, and the evolving sense of belonging they found upon relocating to Los Angeles. Topics explored include the challenges and possibilities of starting an art space without institutional funding, building a collector base from scratch, integrating musicians, comedians, and writers into gallery programming, and the nuances of L.A.'s cultural landscape compared to New York. Highlights include a behind-the-scenes look at Gene's Dispensary's chess tournaments, multidisciplinary performances, and the gallery's mission to dissolve boundaries between visual art and other forms of creative practice. Varadi also offers insight into the gallery's namesake, paying homage to socialist leader Eugene V. Debs and affirming a commitment to equitable practices within the art market. Whether you are an artist seeking alternative models of sustainability, a curator interested in community engagement, or simply an art lover curious about the dynamic intersections of creativity in Los Angeles, this episode offers a compelling portrait of persistence, generosity, and invention.

To watch the video of this podcast, please go to: https://youtu.be/Kn79hPNXaXU   Have you ever felt disconnected from your intuition or unsure how to reclaim your personal power? What if the answers you're seeking are already within your energetic field? Could exploring energy healing help you tap into your truth and transform your life?   In this week's episode of Kaleidoscope of Possibilities – Alternative Perspectives on Mental Health, Dr. Adriana Popescu interviews Lauren Morgan, intuitive energy healer, spiritual mentor, and creator of the Inner Voice Process. Lauren shares how, after years of people-pleasing, emotional burnout, and feeling disconnected from her voice, she found her way back to herself by tuning into her body's wisdom. She opens up about how learning to listen to her body and intuition helped her shift out of codependency, reclaim her power, and reconnect with her truth. Together, they explore how energetic healing can support trauma recovery, self-trust, and deeper spiritual awakening.   In this episode: • What it means to “reclaim your voice” through energy healing • The role of intuition in breaking codependent patterns • How energetic tools can shift stored trauma and emotional patterns • The link between authenticity, boundaries, and healing • Lauren's method: the Inner Voice Process and how it works   Resources mentioned in this episode: Lauren's Website: https://wildwisdomcoach.com/home Inner Voice Process: https://wildwisdomcoach.com/speaking Lauren's Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/laurenswildwisdom/   About Lauren: Lauren Morgan is a Trauma Recovery & Business Coach, an Energy Master & Mystic, and the founder of Wild Wisdom, LLC.

When Country Is One Color in a Grand Kaleidoscope: Wrangling Multiple Genres With Neon Cowgirl Tami Neilson

In 2024, I had the idea to produce podcasts based on interviews from MerleFest, with the theme being a focus on both first-time performers and veterans. Combining two artists who made their debuts resulted in the episode “Rural Roots That Run Deep With Nick Shoulders and Adeem The Artist”, we followed that with two of the festival's mainstays in the episode “Jim Lauderdale, Donna the Buffalo and the Many Collaborations Of MerleFest”. It was great fun to compare and contrast artist experiences at the venerated event between newcomers and returning veterans, as well as dive into their stories and music along the way. This year, I picked up on the approach once again, interviewing bluegrass heroes Woody Platt and Buddy Melton in the episode that immediately precedes this one, titled “A New Team For Two Heavy Hitters Of Bluegrass: Woody Platt and Buddy Melton”. Now, we celebrate another MerleFest newcomer, Tami Neilson. Although she just made her first stop at the festival, she is no novice in the roots music scene, having grown up in a family band and having made records since 2008; I was all smiles when I saw her on the MerleFest lineup for 2025. Fun fact: when I sent in the request to feature Tami on this podcast, her publicist replied, “So just to be clear here — Tami is for Southern Songs & Stories? She is originally Canadian and lives in New Zealand so just checking!” I chuckled and replied, “Yes, that's correct. I break my own rules every so often. I've featured Ruen Brothers, Colin Hay and others over the years. New Zealand is south too right? ;-)”I spoke with Tami Neilson late at night, after her rousing Dance Tent performance, where she talked about her love of wide ranging musical journeys, her own journey to her adopted country of New Zealand, growing up in a family band and now bringing her sons on stage from time to time, playing the Grand Ole Opry and making music with greats like Willie Nelson, and a whole lot more. Tami Neilson playing her first of two sets at MerleFest on April 25, 2025.
