This week on Nintendo Pow BlockThis week on Nintendo Pow Block, ⁠⁠⁠⁠Edward Varnell⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ and ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Corey Dirrig ⁠⁠⁠⁠ dive into a massive week of Nintendo and gaming news. The show kicks off with the surprise Nintendo Direct for The Super Mario Galaxy Movie, featuring a brand-new trailer introduced by Miyamoto and Illumination's Chris Meledandri—plus a hilarious cameo from Jack Black. We also got big casting confirmations, with Brie Larson as Rosalina and Benny Safdie as Bowser Jr. The crew also breaks down the unexpected reveal that Pokémon Pokopia will launch on a Game-Key Card for Switch 2, marking The Pokémon Company's first GKC title. This caused a massive conversation from physical game fans, wondering if Nintendo is going back on their word on all first party games will be on full cartridges. In another social media announcement, LEGO and Nintendo showed off their second LEGO Zelda set, coming in 2026 and featuring Link battling Ganon from what looks like the end of Ocarina of Time-inspired scene.Beyond Nintendo, the guys dig into Valve's newly revealed Steam Box, Steam Controller, and Steam Frame, the next evolution of their gaming hardware ecosystem. They discuss how these new devices integrate with the Steam Deck, how Valve's hardware lineup will stack up against what Nintendo is doing with Switch 2, and how it compares to Microsoft's current "Play Anywhere" strategy.Plus, Atari opened pre-orders for RollerCoaster Tycoon 3: Complete Edition, getting a physical Switch release via Limited Run Games in March 2026. And to wrap things up, they react to the leaked footage from the upcoming Zelda movie, showing Zelda and Impa on horseback in New Zealand.

In this episode of Innovation Meets Leadership, host Natalie Born sits down with Jolynn Ledgerwood, learning and development expert, certified Gallup Strengths coach, and founder of Elevate Your Talent. With over 25 years of experience working with global brands like PepsiCo, Frito-Lay, and Toyota, Jolynn introduces us to a transformative methodology called LEGO® Serious Play, a hands-on approach that sparks creativity, strengthens collaboration, and unlocks hidden insights within teams.Together, Natalie and Jolynn explore how “thinking with your hands” activates up to 80% more brain power, why play is vital for innovation and well-being, and how leaders can create environments where every voice, from the CEO to the intern, has a seat at the table. From high school athletes to corporate teams, this episode proves that the opposite of play isn't work, it's stagnation.[00:00 – 03:00] Jolynn's Journey into LEGO® Serious PlayFrom corporate learning roles at PepsiCo and Toyota to creative facilitation.How LEGO® reinvented itself and how Jolynn discovered its team-building power.Only 100 certified practitioners in the U.S. versus 15,000 in Europe, why Americans still struggle to see “play” as productive.[03:01 – 07:00] The Science of Thinking with Your HandsUsing LEGO® unlocks up to 80% more brain power.The four-step methodology: question → build → share → reflect.How creativity allows all personality types, even quiet thinkers, to express themselves fully.[07:01 – 10:00] Building Trust and Curiosity Through PlayLEGO® Serious Play creates safe, judgment-free conversations.Why every build is “right” for the person who made it.Metaphors and subconscious meaning in simple pieces and the power of asking, “Tell me more about what you built.”[10:01 – 14:00] Real-World Example: A Basketball Team's TransformationFacilitating a workshop with a high school girls' team to build unity.How players gained empathy and emotional awareness through their builds.Discovering that supporting teammates means seeing beyond performance.[14:01 – 18:00] Courageous Leadership and Unexpected InsightsWhy it takes a brave leader to invite play into the workplace.LEGO® as a tool for perspective-taking and emotional intelligence.Seeing the same model from different angles and how it changes interpretation.[18:01 – 22:00] Building Culture in Times of ChangeHow LEGO® sessions rebuild morale after layoffs or restructuring.The danger of calling connection “fluff” and why it's business-critical.Creating “simple guiding principles” from each session to carry forward.[22:01 – 25:00] Play as a Pathway to InnovationThe opposite of play isn't work, it's depression.Inviting creativity through LEGO®, Play-Doh, or even watercolor.How play fosters engagement, focus, and retention in teams.[25:01 – 27:00] Final Reflections and Call to LeadersWhy leaders must make space for curiosity and fun at work.Mary Poppins wisdom: “In every job that must be done, there's an element of fun.”When teams play together, innovation follows naturally.Quotes:“It takes a courageous leader to bring play into the workplace.” – Jolynn Ledgerwood“Leaders who embrace creativity give permission for authenticity.” – Jolynn Ledgerwood“You never know what your team is capable of until you invite play into the process.” – Jolynn LedgerwoodWebsite: elevateyourtalent.coLinkedIn: Jolynn Ledgerwood Podcast: Play for PerformanceIf this conversation inspired you, leave a review and share this episode with a leader who's ready to reimagine what creativity and connection look like at work.

Darf man sich uneingeschränkt über LEGO freuen und wann hört man vermutlich keine Musik? Warum investiert Japan Millionen in einen Felsen und weshalb ist selbst Sigmund Freud an den Aalen verzweifelt? Warum ist gelootetes loot das beste loot und zu welchem Arzt gehen Halter von imaginären Tieren? Was ist das Zentrum der Schönheit und welchen Podcast können wir in diesem Zusammenhang empfehlen und warum reichen die Betten bei der Weltklimakonferenz nicht aus? Der Podcast der Schönheit lautet ganz klar ZDP!

Issu d'une famille emblématique de la voile française, Antoine Carpentier a construit depuis trente ans une carrière aussi discrète qu'immense : triple vainqueur de la Transat Jacques Vabre, triple vainqueur du Tour de France à la voile, quintuple vainqueur du Fastnet - entre autres.Fils de Jean-Michel et neveu de Patrice Carpentier, il grandit entre La Trinité-sur-Mer et les pontons de la SNT avant de devenir un équipier recherché. De l'habitable en baie de Quiberon au Tour de France à la voile, il s'impose très tôt comme un régatier complet, capable d'évoluer sur tous les postes et tous les supports.Dans cet épisode, il revient longuement sur cette trajectoire singulière, façonnée par une culture de l'équipage et un goût prononcé pour les projets collectifs. Devenu pro presque naturellement après es études, il raconte ses années structurantes en ORMA au début des années 2000, puis l'aventure exceptionnelle de Courrier Dunkerque, avec Daniel Souben, où il remporte plusieurs Tours de France à la voile. Une période qu'il décrit comme la plus formatrice de sa carrière, tant l'exigence y était élevée.Au fil des saisons, il glisse vers le large : premières transats en Class40, découverte du solitaire, et une série remarquable de résultats. Trois victoires consécutives sur la Transat Jacques Vabre – deux en Class40 (2017 et 2021), une en Ocean Fifty (2019) – assoient définitivement son statut de marin polyvalent, capable de briller aussi bien en multicoque qu'en monocoque. Il évoque aussi ses deux Routes du Rhum, 7e puis 5e, en Class40 - sans cacher sa préférence pour le duo ou l'équipage - des saisons où il déroge un peu à sa règle : naviguer beaucoup, sur de nombreux supports, pour apprendre et progresser, encore et toujours.Aujourd'hui, à 50 ans, Antoine navigue en Class40 aux côtés de Ian Lipinski sur Crédit Mutuel depuis 2023 et s'apprête à poursuivre la Globe 40, le tour du monde en Class40 en double.  L'entretien se referme sur une réflexion plus personnelle : celle d'un marin comblé, conscient du temps qui passe, partagé entre sa passion intacte pour la compétition, l'envie de transmettre et un rapport lucide à la vie de famille. Un parcours dense, simple et droit, à l'image du marin.Diffusé le 14 novembre 2025Générique : In Closing – Days PastPost-production : Grégoire LevillainHébergé par Ausha.

Life 2.0: Love, Loss and Second Chances Each of us has experienced some sort of grief in our lifetimes. We often think of grief as death but there's grief in divorce, leaving your family home, moving to a new location, even in losing dreams or versions of ourselves. In this episode we are joined by Melissa Stein, creator of My Life 2.0 to hear her story of loss, renewal and second chances. With more than 30 years in entertainment publicity and brand storytelling, Melissa Stein has spent her career helping some of the world's most beloved franchises connect with audiences. As Vice President, Publicity for TV, Animation & Originals at Warner Bros., she oversaw campaigns across TV, Genre, Family, and Animation, including Warner Bros. Animation, DC Comics, Hanna-Barbera, and LEGO. Now, she is channeling that same storytelling instinct into her next act: My Life 2.0, a lifestyle blog and community for women starting over in midlife.  It's there that she shares her reinvention journey with humor and heart covering everything from love and loss to motherhood, fashion and the gadgets that make life a little easier. Whether in the boardroom or on the blog, Stein's mission remains the same, to connect, inspire, and remind us it's never too late for a reboot.

In fact, some sets of these simple toys can now cost thousands of dollars.  Learn more about Legos and how the company started and grew on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.  Sponsors Quince Go to quince.com/daily for 365-day returns, plus free shipping on your order!

This is a free preview of a paid episode. To hear more, visit innovabiz.substack.comOur guest in this episode is Scott Levy, the founder and CEO of ResultMaps. Scott is on a mission to help the world be its “inspired best” by architecting systems that clear away the “friction” of modern work. He combines a deep understanding of neuroscience with a pragmatic approach to technology, helping teams stop “fighting the currents” of their own biology and start surfing them.We had a fascinating chat about why most of us feel so burnt out (a hint: our work models are stuck in the 1920s) and how to use new tools, especially AI, as a “Lego set” to build better, more human-centric workflows.Key points discussed include:* Working with your brain, not against it, by understanding your natural peak performance cycles.* Using AI as a “Lego set” to build small, focused solutions that solve real friction points.* How AI forces us to be clearer, accidentally training us to be better human communicators.Listen to the podcast to find out more.Innovabiz Substack is a reader-supported publication.

Scott's mission is a big one: to help the world be its “inspired best.” Now, that's a goal I can truly get behind. But as we dug into our conversation, it became clear that the biggest thing holding most teams back isn't a lack of drive or even a lack of tools. It's the invisible, day-to-day friction in how we work.Scott has this fantastic way of looking at the modern work environment, and he kicked things off by explaining that most of us are, quite frankly, just “swimming upstream” against our own biology. We're fighting a battle we can't win, and it's leading to massive burnout. It's a feeling I think we all know well, that sense of being completely overwhelmed and overworked, which, as Scott so perfectly put it, “just plain sucks.”Now, as for the antidote to things that ‘plain suck'...That feeling of being overwhelmed... it's also the exact starting point for the rest of our fascinating conversation, and for the deeper work I'm exploring.This podcast is the beginning of the conversation, but the personal reflections—the “why” behind what was said—are where the real journey begins.If you'd like to read the rest of this post, where Scott shares his brilliant “surfer” and “Lego” analogies for navigating our brains and our technology, I'd love to invite you to become a paid subscriber.A subscription unlocks these full, detailed show notes, but more importantly, it welcomes you into a quieter space. It's where I share my private, 3x-a-week reflections on these conversations about AI, the “behind-the-lens” stories from my photography, and the personal meditations that connect them all.It's a place for the curious, and I'd be honoured to share it with you.

Joshua shares how his passion for stop-motion videos, sparked by a gift from his parents of LEGO at age 13, evolved into a creative tool for sharing biblical truth in fresh, engaging ways. Discover how animation captures attention, communicates complex ideas, and connects with younger audiences in today's digital world. This conversation inspires ministry leaders to embrace creativity and see how God can use art, motion, and imagination to reach hearts with the gospel. Have you seen animation or visual storytelling used effectively in your church or ministry? How do you think animation could help your church connect better with younger audiences? Why or why not?

I want to talk about play and why adults need it in their lives. During COVID lockdown, I had this insight that part of our cultural depression wasn't just fear or worry, it was that we weren't enjoying ourselves enough. Since becoming a parent, I've experienced a huge sense of loss for opportunities to play, and I think many of us feel this way as adults. I have a challenge for you. Think back through your entire life and remember what you did for play. Construction and Lego, imaginative role play, physical games, sports, social activities, dancing, reading, hiking, music. Not everything works for everyone, but what are your things? What gets your heart racing and connects you to your wants and desires? Spend time fantasizing about what you miss most, then figure out what aspects you can still fit into your daily routine, weekly schedule, or monthly calendar. If you're a parent thinking you have no time, I understand completely. It's not all or nothing. We owe it to our children and ourselves to carve out space for play, to access those parts of ourselves that aren't responsible or in service of others' needs. You come back better, stronger, more fulfilled, and able to give more to the people in your life. As a parent, it's actually our responsibility to offer this to ourselves.

Jim Hill and Dan Graney unwrap a stocking full of Marvel mayhem in this fourth episode of the Marvel Us Disney reboot — a show equal parts MCU, theme-park history, and pop-culture cheer. They start with LEGO's new Marvel Avengers: Strange Tails (yes, that's T-A-I-L-S), plus a check-in on Jeremy Renner, David Harbour, and this year's Marvel merch blitz, Unwrap the Universe. From there it's on to the big one: Avengers: Doomsday. The Russos return, Robert Downey Jr. re-enters the MCU — as Doctor Doom — and the franchise looks to reset the board ahead of Secret Wars. Later, Jim and Dan explore Simu Liu's “love letter to superhero movies,” Patrick Stewart's possible farewell, and a “What If” worth debating — would Marvel even exist without the MCU? Finally, Jim opens the vault for Theme Park Archaeology, uncovering the Marvel attractions that never were — from Hong Kong's Oscorp Tower of Terror to Disneyland's unbuilt Wakanda expansion — and a first look at Rocket & Groot's Galaxy Spin coming to Disney Cruise Line. HIGHLIGHTS LEGO Marvel Avengers: Strange Tails debuts Nov 14 on Disney+ Avengers: Doomsday trailer drops Dec 19 with Avatar: Fire & Ash Simu Liu's “love letter” to superhero movies & Patrick Stewart's rumored retirement MCU legacy talk: Kang, Shuri, and the future of Black Panther Theme Park Archaeology: the Marvel rides that never made it to the parks Rocket & Groot's Galaxy Spin sets sail March 10, 2026 aboard the Disney Adventure Hosts Jim Hill — @JimHillMedia | @JimHillMedia | jimhillmedia.comDan Graney — @TheHubbubbery | @TheHubbubbery | thehubbubbery.com Support the Show Enjoy Marvel Us Disney?

Welcome back to another episode of the Peaceful Parenting Podcast. Today's episode is about why you shouldn't do special time, which is, I admit, a little bit of a provocative hook here. But it's something that Corey brought to my attention that we have been talking about a lot. And then after last week's podcast, we both agreed—after the podcast with Joanna and her complex kid—we both agreed we have to talk about this, because this is something that probably a lot of parents are feeling a lot of conflict, guilt, and shame around: not doing special time or not wanting to do special time or not being able to do special time.Sarah: Hey Corey. Welcome back to the podcast. Tell us a little bit about who you are and what you do.Corey: Hi, I am Corey Everett, and I am a trained peaceful parenting coach, and I work for Sarah. I live in Ontario, but I work with clients all over the world doing one-on-one coaching. And I myself am complex and have a complex child. And I have two kids. I never can remember this, but I have a 7-year-old and a 10-year-old.Sarah: I am glad you're not the only one who can't remember their kids' ages. I have to stop and think. Okay. Well, I'm so excited to talk about this. And this is actually something that you and I have talked about over the years, because you have found it really difficult to do special time with your complex kid. Maybe just tell us a little bit about what happened when you tried to do special time and why you eventually sort of gave it up. And, you know, this is something that Joanna in the podcast last week—the coaching podcast—she was talking about how she didn't want to do special time with her kid because she was so exhausted. So I think this is sort of like a two-part: why sometimes special time doesn't work for the kids and why it doesn't work for the parents. So let's start by talking about what happened when you would try to do special time with Big C, who's your 10-year-old.Corey: Okay, so when I would try and do special time with Big C, I actually found—first of all—I didn't really feel very present in it. I felt like I was trying to do it, but I felt like I didn't have a lot of energy for it. I think he could feel that. So I just didn't feel very engaged in it and I just felt exhausted, and it just felt like another thing on my to-do list. And so therefore he didn't necessarily enjoy it as much either.We did do a podcast—it'd be really great, I can put it in the show notes—where we talked about some things for peaceful parenting that aren't working, and I did a really good description in that one of why special time didn't work for him.Sarah: Okay.Corey: And so we can have them listen to that if they want more details on that part. Instead, I think I want to really focus on why it didn't work for me and why I'm finding with my clients it's not working for them either.Sarah: You know what, sorry to interrupt you. I realize we should really just say what special time is, in case—like it's such a gold standard of peaceful parenting—but there could be some parents listening to this, parents or caregivers who are newer to special time and might not know what it is.Special time—and there are, I think, some other brands of parenting that might have other names for it—but basically the gold standard is 15 minutes a day of one-on-one time with you and your child, where you put aside the to-do list, put away your phone, and some people suggest that you set a timer and say, “I'm all yours for the next 15 minutes. What do you want to play?” It's really immersing yourself in the child's world. That's one of the main ideas of special time: that we're immersed in our child's world of pretend play or some kind of play. It can be roughhousing or it can be playing Lego or dolls—something that is really child-centered and child-led.So that is special time. And let's take it from there. You had mentioned already that energetically it was really hard for you.Corey: I think the best way that I can explain this is if I paint the picture for you of what it looks like to be a parent of a complex kid. And—Sarah: Wait let's give a definition of complex—we've got to make sure we're covering the basics here. What's a complex kid?Corey: Okay, so a complex kid. This term, I first heard it from Elaine Taylor-Klaus—and we can also put in the show notes when you had her on the podcast. She is amazing. And basically, we're really often talking about neurodivergent kids here. But it can be more than that. It's just kids who need more.Sarah: It's that 20% of kids that we talk about—the 80% of kids who, you know, you say “Go put your shoes on and wait for me by the door,” and they go and do it and they don't have the extra big feelings. So in my idea of it, it can be neurodivergent and also spirited, sensitive, strong-willed. The kids who are not your average, typical kids. And I always say that when I tell people what I do—parenting coach—some people look at me like, “Why would anyone need a parenting coach?” and other people are like, “Oh, I could have used you when my kids were growing up.”So really there are kids who are—I'm sure they're wonderful—but they're not as more or complex as some other kids.Corey: Kids that you almost don't have to be as intentional about your parenting with.Sarah: Yeah. You don't have to read parenting books or listen to parenting podcasts. I would hazard a guess that most people who listen to this podcast have complex kids.Corey: Yes. They're our people. We always say the people who are our people are the ones who don't have to talk about challenges around putting on shoes.Sarah: I love that.Corey: That seems to be the number one thing we're always talking about.Sarah: We always use that as an example, whether it's sensory or strong-willed or attentional. It is kind of like one of those canary-in-the-coal-mine things. Will your child go and put their shoes on when you ask them to? If the answer is no, you probably have a complex kid.Corey: Yes, I love that it is the canary in the coal mine. So that's what our complex kids are. And for the parents of these kids, I think of these parents as being absolute rock stars. They are just trying so hard to peacefully parent their kids. And, like we said, they're reading all the books, they're listening to this podcast, they've probably signed up for all sorts of online seminars and courses and just do all of the things.Often these parents were not peacefully parented themselves. Most people weren't. So they're learning a whole new parenting style. And a lot of people today are getting all their information off Instagram and TikTok reels that aren't very nuanced, so they're also not getting really full information. They're trying so hard off of all these little sound snippets.Sarah: Or the peaceful parenting or gentle parenting advice that they're being given, and what's supposed to happen just doesn't look like that for their kid. And that reminds me—the other podcast that we did about when peaceful parenting doesn't “work,” we could link to that one too.Corey: Yes. Parents of complex kids are also trying to problem solve so many challenges because the world is often not designed for their kids, and it's often not designed for them.Sarah: Say more about that—about “not designed for their kids.” What's an example of how that might show up?Corey: So an example is conventional schooling. They're expected to go into this noisy environment and just be able to eat the food they've been sent and listen all day and stay in their seats and learn the same way that everyone else is learning. I didn't really realize how complex my kid was until I tried to send him to daycare.Sarah: I was just thinking about the spirit days at Big C's school, and how you've shared with me that those spirit days—like pajama day or “everyone wear the school colors day”—for some typical kids can be exciting and fun and a diversion. And for complex kids that can cause a whole level of stress and anticipation and the change of routine. Other parents of non-complex kids might be like, “Whatever, it's not a big deal.” For our complex kids, it throws them for a loop.Corey: Yes. My first moment of starting to realize there was something I needed to pay more attention to was they were having a movie day at Big C's daycare, and they said he kept covering his ears and hiding. And that was my first idea that every other kid was so excited that it was movie day. They'd been looking forward to it. And for my child it was just so loud, and then suddenly the lights were turned off, and the whole situation was throwing him off.So that's what I mean. We're designing the world for kids who are excited about movie day or special event days. But for complex kids, this is a complete change in their routine and all sorts of different sensory things that are happening that can make it really hard for them.Sarah: Or that they can't handle as much as other kids. I have a client who was just talking about how she's realized for her son, who's nine, that they literally can't do anything after school. They can't stop at the store and run in and grab a few things. They really just have to come straight home and not do anything extra or different. And he does so much better when he can just come home and unwind and needs that.Corey: Yes, exactly. So the world wasn't designed for them. And then consequently, the world was often not designed for those parents either. So many of the people we work with—including ourselves—only start to realize how complex we are once we start identifying it in our children. So it's just not really an accommodated world.Sarah: So talk about how that has led to burnout for you. And by the way, when you started talking about rock stars—in the membership the other day, in office hours, one of our members, I'll call him D, who works incredibly hard and has two very complex kids, was just sharing how dark and hard life had been feeling for him lately. And I said, honestly, I just want to give you a medal. And I grabbed this off my desk and held it up—this silver milagro from Mexico that's a bleeding heart. It was the closest thing I had to a medal.But I really feel like so many parents who have hard or more complex kids, all they feel is that they're doing a bad job. They don't realize that they're up against something other people are not up against. They don't realize that because that's all they know—unless you have one kid that's not complex and one that is—you just don't know that you're working so hard and things are still hard. It feels like you must be doing something wrong or failing. What they don't realize is that you can do everything “right” in peaceful parenting, and things are still really hard if you've got a complex kid.Corey: Yes. And the last thing I want to say to help paint this picture is that these parents—part of what they're dealing with, and I actually think this is huge—all parents today have a huge amount of family admin: managing appointments and things from the school and all those kinds of things. But that's this other crushing weight we're carrying as parents with complex kids: the admin.Sarah: Right.Corey: The amount of communication we have to do with daycare providers and teachers almost every day at points—Sarah: And also the searching. I've watched you go through this, and I watched my sister go through this, and countless clients. The searching to try to figure out what exactly is going on with my kid so that I can best support them. And even with the privilege you have and my sister has in terms of being able to access specialists and testing and all of that—even with that privilege—it's still almost a full-time job. And then getting the OT or the supports too.Corey: Yes. I started for this podcast listing some of the people I've had to coordinate with over the years, and I was like: different types of medical doctors, occupational therapists, speech-language pathologists, psychologists, social workers, dieticians… so many. And just so much coordinating and searching. And the other thing that's hard is you also then have homework from each of these people. So not only do you have to make appointments and get your children to appointments, you then have to fill out all this paperwork to get reimbursed or get payment sorted. Then there's all the paperwork they want you to sign for ongoing parts of that. Then they have homework for the kids that they're supposed to be doing all the time to help them with whatever's going on. It's endless.Sarah: Yeah. And then there's the day-to-day. Tell us—paint a little picture of the day-to-day living. Not only do we have the world that isn't built for them or for you, and then all of the extra stuff that goes along with having a complex kid, but then the day-to-day life. Speak to that a little bit.Corey: Yeah. I think that's the thing you just see is so painful to talk about for all the people in our membership and our clients, and I've experienced it firsthand. You had children to add love to your family. And then you love them so much and you're struggling because there's chronic dysregulation, and they're having such a hard time getting through your daily routines, and they need more supervision than the average child does. Just getting through the day can be really challenging when you have a complex kid. And then if you yourself are complex, your nervous system is getting completely overwhelmed by trying to be the calm for everyone's storms.Sarah: It's a lot, Corey. I understand why you get emotional about it. It's a lot. And you're still in the thick of it with two young kids. I think everyone who's listening to this can relate.Okay. So how and when did you decide that you were going to quit special time, and what does that look like? And—I just want to center us here—the reason why we do special time is for connection, right? Complex kids need connection just as much or more than typical kids. And so just because we're saying you might want to quit special time, it does not mean we're saying you want to quit connection. So what does that look like? What have you found? Because I know you're super connected with your kids. I've seen you together. I know the things they say to you and about you, and that you have an awesome connection. So what do you do for connection when special time does not work?Corey: A big thing that I've been telling clients and that I've done in my life is—first of all, I had to acknowledge to myself, it felt like shame. Because here I am—it's one of the first things we tell everyone we work with: “Are you getting one-on-one time doing special time with your child?” And then I'm sitting there being like, but I don't really do this. I get a ton of one-on-one time with my children. And I think that's at the heart of it. But what I realized is because we're carrying all those weights we talked about, your whole life feels like it's all about this kid. And then to be like, “You know what? Let's make it more about you and give you another 15 minutes,” just feels—I almost felt like I don't have this in me.So I realized: let's pick things that we can do together that are interesting for both them and me. Instead of getting locked in their play and being led by them, I'm finding things that we're co-creating together.Sarah: And can I just note too that you've told me—and I know you said you talked about this in another podcast—but I just want to say it again: a lot of times complex kids' play doesn't look like typical kids' play. So you might be like, “What do you want to play?” and they're like, “I don't know.” They don't have the same kind of “Okay, let's play store and you be this and I'll be this.” Or they play with their toys in a different manner. So it can also be just awkward to insist that you play with them when that's not their style anyway. I just wanted to throw that out there.Corey: Yeah. And, or if I did, they're always telling me I'm doing everything wrong.Sarah: Right. Because I do think that play—I do think that for most kids, even though we're saying don't do special time—I do think that for most kids it is important to put yourself in their world. And I don't want people to think, like, “Okay, this means I never have to try to do special time.” We're just saying if it's not working for you for these various reasons—whether it's because of your own constraints like it was for Joanna, or because it doesn't work for your kid—it doesn't mean that you're doing it wrong and that there's no way to connect and that you should just give up.But I do think that—just a side note—I'd say the majority of kids, play in their world is the key to a lot of connection. But for some complex kids, that just isn't their mode. For some of them.Corey: Yeah. Because I think we were coming out of special time feeling angry.Sarah: Right?Corey: Because we were coming out of it like, “I'm trying to get lost in my child's world,” and he's just like, “You're not doing anything right, Mommy.” It was frustrating for him because he had these ideas and he couldn't really get me to do it right. And I think for some kids that can be really empowering, where they like that feeling of being in control and telling them. But for him it was frustrating because he's like, “I had this vision, and you are just not executing.” I'm like, “I don't know, I'm trying to execute your vision.” So I think that's why for us, I could just tell it wasn't just me—neither of us were finding it was working.Sarah: But—Corey: We were desperately wanting to be together.Sarah: Okay. So you said “finding,” right? I interrupted you when you were talking about finding things that were co-interests—things that work for both of you, co-creating.Corey: Yes. When they were younger, one of the big things I did was buy myself really special pencil crayons and nice watercolor paints because both of them loved doing art. So I could sit and do art with them and use my fancy coloring books and feel very “we are together doing something” that was making me feel really good, but they also felt really happy, and they loved showing me what they were making.Sarah: And did you let them use your stuff? Because I think that would be really hard for me, because you can't really be like, “These are my special things, and you use these Crayola ones.” How did you navigate that?Corey: Okay, so that was really hard. This never would work for my husband, so I'm going to acknowledge for some people this wouldn't work. I let them grab my crayons, and they dropped them a lot. I acknowledged that they were not going to last. But I still wanted good ones available to me. So I had to be flexible. They definitely grabbed them, and the watercolors were wrecked really quickly. But they respected not touching my special brushes for some reason. So I kept my own special brushes for the painting.Sarah: You know, that reminds me—one of our members has a just-newly-3-year-old who's super complex, and she was talking about how she was doing a jigsaw puzzle, like a proper adult thousand-piece jigsaw puzzle. And she was really worried that—since it was on the table in a room where the parents could be—her kid was just going to come in and wreck it. Instead, her child is really good at jigsaw puzzles and is doing them with her. So I think sometimes—she's totally shocked and thrilled that this has become something—and this is clearly a case of coming into the adult world of a thousand-piece jigsaw puzzle. You just reminded me—she put a post in our Facebook group about how… I don't know, did you see that post?Corey: Yeah, I did.Sarah: About how wonderful it's been to have her just-turned-3-year-old do these adult jigsaw puzzles with her. So that's a perfect example of what you're talking about, I think.Corey: I think it's—so I love what you're saying here, because we're always told “go into their world,” but there's something really powerful about letting them into yours. I didn't actually realize that's what I was doing—I've been bringing them into my world with me, and then they feel really special being allowed in there with me. And so it creates this really beautiful thing, but I'm flexible about letting them in there, knowing it's going to look different.Sarah: Right. What are some other things that you've done besides art that might be inspiring?Corey: I realized a long time ago I had to let go of the idea that I needed to read really interesting books to my kids so that every night we could look forward to reading beautiful stories that drew me in. We actually realized bedtime has started getting hard again, and we realized it's because we're in between books. So that is something—and a shout-out to my mom; she's really good at researching books—she's come up with some really cool books that have really diverse characters and really interesting stories. That's been another really important thing: don't just read. I've picked really good books that draw me in.And so last night we actually just started a favorite series of mine. I kid you not, I'm reading to my 10-year-old a feminist fantasy book that I read when I was a tween. It's called Dealing with Dragons, and he actually is loving it.Sarah: Nice. So you're saying—maybe you misspoke—you said you had to give up on reading books that you… beautiful books that you liked. But did you mean that you were finding beautiful books that you liked?Corey: Yeah, sorry, that's—earlier on I felt like I was just reading, you know, books that I thought they would like.Sarah: Oh, okay.Corey: But instead I was like, “The heck with that,” and I found books that I loved, and I started reading those to my kids. And then they loved them. And then that really got us so excited about bedtime.Sarah: Great, great.Corey: We got through it, and we would read that together, and it became—I actually think reading books that I love to my kids has become one of the most important special times that we have each day.Sarah: So another co-creating—something that's interesting to both of you. And it's not necessarily going into their world and reading the Captain Underpants or something that they might like that you find mind-numbingly boring. And maybe Captain Underpants isn't boring—I've never read it—but I'm just using that as an example.Corey: That's a perfect example. So it's like, here, I'm providing those books for them to read to themselves for their reading time. Absolutely—read all the Captain Underpants, the Dog Man you would like. But my goodness, when I'm reading to you, I'm picking something. And look, we've abandoned lots of books that we started reading that they couldn't get into. We keep—we just keep trying.Sarah: Okay. What else—what else is next?Corey: Exercise.Sarah: Okay.Corey: I've realized exercise for me is the number one way for me to deal with stress. Of all things, I need to exercise to help manage stress. And it's very hard to fit in exercise when you have complex kids. So from the time they were little, we've been very flexible about how we've done it. But my husband and I have—once again, instead of picking things they're naturally into (this is starting to sound really funny)—we just brought them into our exercise with us, and they love it. From the time they were little, we had a balance bike for my littlest guy. He was on that balance bike, and we were riding bikes together.So my littlest one ended up being able to ride a regular bike before he was three.Sarah: Same with Maxine. Those balance bikes are amazing. She just—yeah. It's crazy.Corey: Yeah. And sometimes—Sarah: Sometimes you're like, “What have I done?” The 3-year-old is riding off.Corey: It's true. It was unbelievable, though. So we just rode our bikes together. From the time ours were very little, we had them as little guys on—you can get an attachment to your bike—and my husband put them on his road bike with him and would take them for rides on his road bike.Sarah: There's also the trailer bike too, which we had, which is good.Corey: So we did that. We had our youngest on skis when he was two. COVID kind of interrupted some of that, but now we ski every weekend with our kids, and we decided to do that instead of putting them into organized sports so that we would all be doing it together.Sarah: Oh, I love that. Instead of dropping them off and they're playing soccer, you're all doing stuff together.Corey: Yes.Sarah: I mean, and you could—and, you know, for other families—you could just go and kick the ball. Or I always say, chase your kids around the playground if you feel like you don't have time to exercise but you need to. It can be that simple, right? Kicking the ball around, chasing them around the playground—get some exercise and have some connection time too.Corey: Yeah. One of the ways we got our one son kind of good at running is taking the kite to the park, and we just ran around with the kite. But we started even going to—and I advised another family to do this—going to a track together, because it's a contained area where everyone could run at different speeds. And the really little ones were playing on the inside of the track with soccer balls and things like that, and then everyone else could be running around the track.Sarah: Love it.Corey: So getting really creative about literally bringing them into our world of things that we love, and then connecting deeply. And it's one of those things where it's an investment you make over time. It starts small, and you have to be really flexible. And there are these little hands grabbing all your fancy pencil crayons, and you're having to deal with it. And then one day you're sitting beside them, and they're using them themselves—drawing works of art.Sarah: Yeah, yeah.Corey: And it's happening now where my older son and I have been going for runs together around the neighborhood, and we have the best talks ever because I'm sideways listening. We should talk about sideways listening, actually.Sarah: Okay.Corey: So I learned about this from you. You have a great article—I recommend it to everyone—it's called “Staying Close to Your Tweens and Teens,” and that's where you talk about how it's actually easier for people, I think, to have important conversations when you're side to side, because it's not that intensity of looking at each other's faces. This is extra true for neurodivergent people who sometimes have a hard time with eye contact and talking in that way. So we go for these runs together all around our neighborhood, and I hear everything from my son during that time because we're side by side. So it's become special time, where it started when I taught him to come into my world with the track running and all the different things, and now that we're running, he's bringing me into his world.Sarah: Love it. Do you find that a lot of complex kids have special interests—do you find that there's a way that you can connect with them over their special interest? Does that feel connecting to you if it's not something—like, I'm literally just curious about that.Corey: I think that can be tricky, but I do think it's very important. I've learned that I was having a hard time with how much my kids loved video games because I've never liked video games. And, you know, as someone with ADHD, it's so hard to focus on things that I don't find interesting. And I realized that I've spent all this time cultivating bringing them into my world, and we've gotten to such a beautiful, connected space that I do need to go into theirs. And now that they're older, I'm finding it is easier to go into their world, because we're not trying to make some sort of play thing happen that wasn't natural.Sarah: Right.Corey: So I have been making a point now of—I've sat down and been like, “Show me how to play. I'm a beginner. Teach me how to do this.” And I've been playing video games with them. I'm so bad.Sarah: You know, in our podcast with Scott Novus about how to stop fighting with your kids about video games, he says how good it is for kids to see you be bad at something.Corey: They're seeing it.Sarah: I love that.Corey: I'm so bad. I cannot even a little bit. So they find it very funny. I've been playing with them and letting them talk to me about it, and I've found that's been really important too. Because I keep on saying, “Do you see why they love this so much?” And I'm kind of like, yes—and I see what skills you're learning now that I've tried it. It takes so much skill and practice to be good at these complex video games on the Switch and on the PlayStation. So I am learning a lot, and I feel like we are shifting now, where I found a way to connect with them by bringing them along with what I was into, and now that they're older, we are switching where I'm able to go back into their world.Sarah: Right. Love it. So we also—you know, I think delighting is something that probably you still do, and we always talk about that as the low-hanging fruit. If you can't do special time or it doesn't work for you, delighting in your child throughout the day—letting the love that you feel in your heart show on your face, right? And then finally, you talked about using routine—the things that you do throughout the day—as connection. Can you talk about that a little bit before we go?Corey: Yes. So this is where long-time listeners of our podcast know that although special time is a big fail for us, I'm really good at being silly with my kids. Really good at being silly. And I'm very inspired listening to Mia from Playful Heart—Playful Heart Parenting. I think I told you, listening to her talk, it was like the first time I heard someone talking about exactly how I do playful parenting. And it's just injecting play and silliness and drama throughout your everyday things you're doing together. And so we do that all the time to get through the schedule. Especially now, my 10-year-old is starting to act a little too cool for some of this, but it's still really happening with my 7-year-old, where we're always singing weird songs about what we're doing, and I'll take on weird accents and be my characters. I'm not going to demonstrate them here—it's far too embarrassing—but I still have my long-running characters I can't get over.Sarah: You've got, like, the dental hygienist—what's her name?Corey: Karen. Karen the dental hygienist.Sarah: What's the bus driver's name?Corey: I have Brett the bus driver. We have “Deep Breath,” who's like a yogi who comes in when everyone needs to take deep breaths. There's—oh, her name's So? I'm not sure why. So is the dresser who's really serious and doesn't know how to smile. So if my kids ever need help—this has also been a big way that I delight in them, I think—if they ever need help getting dressed (which complex kids need help getting dressed for a long—)Sarah: And even body doubling when they don't need help getting dressed, right?Corey: Yes. So I would always pretend to be a dresser who was sent in to get them dressed in their clothes, and they didn't know how to smile. So they're always trying to teach me how to smile when I'm keeping a serious face. And actually, recently I was doing this and I was having such a hard time not laughing that my lips started visibly quivering trying not to smile and laugh.Sarah: I love that.Corey: I think it was the hardest I've ever seen my 7-year-old laugh. He was on the floor laughing because I was like—Sarah: And for anyone who this sounds hard for—just, you know, it takes practice, and anyone, I think, can learn to be playful. And I love Mia's account—we'll link to that in the show notes. I love Mia's account for ideas just to get you started, because I know you—you're a drama kid. I'm not. But I still found ways to get playful even though it's not my natural instinct. And so you can—this way of getting playful and connecting through the day and through your daily routine—you can do that. It'll take maybe a little practice; you might feel funny at first. But I think it's possible for everyone to do that.So thank you so much. We have to wrap up, but I also want to point out that anyone who wants to connect with you, reach out to us. Corey's available for coaching. She's a wonderful coach. And I have people who specifically ask for Corey because they can relate to Corey's experience as a parent of complex kids. And so, on our website, reimaginepeacefulparenting.com, there is a booking link for a free short consult or for a coaching session. We'll also put that in the show notes. So if you want some more support, please reach out to us. Either of us are here and want to help you.And, Corey, thank you for your honesty and vulnerability—vulnerability about being a parent of a complex kid and sharing how you can do that connection, even if it feels like special time is just too hard and something that doesn't work for you or for your kid. And thanks to Joanna for also inspiring us to get this out there to you all.Corey, before I let you go, I'm going to ask the question I ask all my guests, which is: what would you tell your—you had a time machine and you could go back in time—what would you tell your younger parent self?Corey: Okay.Sarah: About parenting? What do you wish you knew?Corey: I think what I wish I knew—I think this is easier than I thought it would be, because I just told my best friend who just had a baby this—and it's: trust your intuition. I think I spent so much time looking for answers outside of myself, and I could feel they weren't right for my kid or for me, that I was so confused because other people were telling me, “This is what you should be doing.” And the more I've learned to trust my gut instinct and just connect deeply—and this special time example is perfect—I knew it wasn't working for us, and I intuitively knew other ways to do it. And I wish I could have just trusted that earlier.Sarah: And stopped doing it sooner and just gone with the other connection ideas. Yeah. Thank you so much, Corey. This has been so great. And, again, we'll put the link to anyone who wants to book a free short consult or coaching session, and also to our membership, which you've heard us mention a few times, which is just a wonderful space on the internet for people who want some community and support with their complex kid.Thanks, Corey.Corey: Thank you.>> Please support us!!!

Everyone's talking about AI like it's plug-and-play. Spoiler: it's not. In this episode, Rob digs into why Big Tech's billions in AI R&D haven't yet turned into matching revenue — and what that means for the rest of us. The truth? The real business wins don't come from off-the-shelf models; they come from smart customization. Rob breaks down the "magic Lego brick" approach that separates hype from practical reality, showing how everyday tools like Power BI and Power Automate can connect to AI in surprisingly simple (and powerful) ways. He also revisits Bill Krolicki's "Vendor Bot" example to prove that you don't need to be a researcher or a billionaire to make AI deliver real results. If you've ever opened ChatGPT, asked it to "optimize operations," and gotten nowhere — this one's for you.

This week on Better Buildings for Humans, Joe Menchefski explores the evolving world of K-12 design with Cory Boudreau, architect at SLAM Collaborative. From a Lego-loving kid to a leader in educational design, Cory shares how his winding career path—from healthcare megaprojects to transformative school campuses—shaped his belief in architecture's power to influence learning and well-being. In this episode, Cory dives into how modern school design embraces daylighting, outdoor learning, flexible spaces, and even VR labs to create environments where students thrive. He also unpacks how sustainability goals, trauma-informed design, and community needs are reshaping the way we think about the places where our kids learn and grow. Whether you're a designer, educator, or parent, this episode will make you see schools—and architecture—in a whole new light.More About Cory BoudreauCory Boudreau is a Project Architect and Associate at the SLAM Collaborative in Providence, RI.

The guys get together to discuss their weekly pickups of the Megablox Pokémon pixilated line, Lego's collaboration with the Mighty Morphing Power Rangers later in the future and the guys also unbox the last two figures in the Turtles of Greyskull line and much more on this episode that you do not want to miss and make sure to tune in!

In this episode, I chat with Akeem Harris , a triathlete and endurance athlete who also happens to be a passionate LEGO builder. Akeem shares his journey through his first Ironman, from the emotional highs and physical challenges to the what kept him going.We also talk about how building LEGO sets helps him unwind and stay grounded after intense training and races. It's a conversation about balance, mindset, and finding joy in both movement and creativity.

Real Life It's another week of real life, questionable decisions, and sci-fi tangents. Does Devon Even Like Being on the Show? We ask the question no one dared to before—and yes, Devon does like being here. Just… maybe not for the reasons you think. Ben's Apology Tour Continues Ben kicks things off with an immediate apology for this podcast. Again. But he makes up for it by diving into Apple TV's The Big Door Prize (IMDb link)—a show full of mysteries, midlife crises, and a machine that tells you your true potential. He's also been watching Zen for Nothing and Piece by Piece, and we learn something shocking: Steven hates LEGO. Steven's Space Drama Speaking of Steven, he's wrestling with another defeat in Shatterpoint (at the hands of Christina's husband, again), and somehow this leads to him buying a Camtono. Why does he have one? No one knows. But we do get a heated debate about the LEGO Enterprise and whether Ensign Ro or Tasha Yar had the raw deal in Star Trek. Devon's Hive-Mind Obsession Devon's been watching Plur1bus on Apple TV and can't stop talking about how eerily well it captures collective consciousness. For a guy who insists he's an individual, he sure sounds like part of a hive. Future or Now Ben actually brings good news this time. Seriously. His pick is a hopeful piece on how Solarpunk is already happening in Africa—how communities there are skipping the outdated infrastructure of the past and heading straight into a sustainable, decentralized future. Read it here: Why Solarpunk Is Already Happening in Africa   Meanwhile, Steven turns up the heat—literally—with a wild story out of Death Valley. Scientists studying Tidestromia oblongifolia found it doesn't just survive in brutal heat—it adapts on the fly, rearranging its cells and genes to keep photosynthesizing when everything else would fry. It's a real-life lesson in evolution under pressure. (ScienceDaily link)   Book Club This Week: In the Forests of Memory by E. Lily Yu (read here) – a haunting, quiet story about memory, commerce, and humanity told through the eyes of a trader and a stranger. It's as poetic as it is unsettling. Next Week: City Grown From Seed by Diana Dima (read here) – content warning for domestic violence and abuse. It's an eerie, metaphorical story that we'll unpack next episode. Between Ben's apologies, Devon's hive talk, and Steven's LEGO rage, it's another week of chaos, sci-fi, and accidental enlightenment. You can listen to the full episode wherever you get your podcasts—or watch our faces slowly melt under studio lights on YouTube.

Government data doesn't just live in vaults anymore, and the latest suspected foreign cyberattack at the Congressional Budget Office proves how fragile our policy pipeline can be. We unpack why breaches keep landing on core agencies, what “zero trust” actually changes, and how identity, patch cadence, and monitoring fit together when the stakes are Congressional forecasts and budget models.Then we pivot hard into the human side of tech: a Detroit police officer's pantsless Zoom court moment. It's funny until you realize how remote optics shape trust in high-stakes settings. We share practical rules for video etiquette, attention, and boundaries that actually stick. From there, we wade into the strangest product of the week: IKEA's $200 “phone bed” that gamifies bedtime with vouchers. Silly? Maybe. But the ritual taps real sleep science, and we explain cheaper ways to build the same habit without feeding your charger a duvet.We also bring a hands-on pick from Gadgets & Gear: Raycon's Essential Open Ear earbuds. Open-ear audio makes more sense for city walking and office life than full isolation, and the battery life plus sub-$60 sale price make them an easy upgrade. Between sips of Remus Repeal Reserve Series 5—a blend that rewards a little air time—we revisit Microsoft's early tablet misfire and how Surface ultimately learned the right lessons. And yes, we end with a grin at LEGO's lavish Star Trek Enterprise set, because sometimes tech joy is the point.If you enjoyed the mix of sharp takes, practical gear, and a little levity, follow and subscribe. Share this with a friend who needs better Zoom habits or better earbuds. And drop a review with the one habit you're changing this week—camera angle, sleep ritual, or both.Support the show
