Why would a person working under the rules and purpose of statistics for 30 years want something more than what she has been an expert with for many years? Do you want something more out of your statistician background? What could statisticians offer outside of the field of statistics in healthcare? How does leadership in statistics bring you to embrace more exciting journey outside of statistics? What does passion have to do with making statistics work for statisticians trying out new avenues of opportunities? No matter how boring it may seem to others, statistics is certainly an exciting field for those who enjoy numbers and the analysis of the data collected from samples that are worked on. From the point of collecting data to studying what they mean, statisticians are certainly considered leaders who are able to utilize data to drive change for the benefit of the patients and the general public. But there is more to statistics than simply dealing with the numbers. It gives statisticians a direct connection with the issues giving them a chance to see things more clearly. In this podcast episode on steeping outside of statistics, Alex sits down to connect with Liz Thompson who has a strong 30-year background in statistics to understand why statisticians embrace the option of stepping outside of their expertise in the hope of bringing more value to what they do. In this discussion, Liz presents some of the most distinct reasons as to why a statistician may want to embrace other options of growth in the healthcare industry as an advocate for distinct purposes. Here are the bullets of lessons you will get from this TES podcast episode:

Today people look inside themselves and decide who they are. And sometimes they even REdefine themselves based on how they feel. I recall that internal conflict in my early teens when I wondered who I was and what I was supposed to do on earth.  Sometimes during transistions, we rethink all those issues. My guest this week, Liz Thompson, didn't know who she was. She went through a crisis when she realized her parents didn't give birth to her. Liz told her story and explained how she resolved her concerns. 

Today, Tes speaks with Chef Liz Thompson. Liz, a native New Yorker, started her first career in Advertising and Product Management after receiving her MBA in Marketing and Finance from Fordham University before she switched gears and attended the French Culinary Institute to become a pastry chef which has been her career path for the last 25 years. She worked in restaurants in New York for a few years before moving to Los Angeles to do an internship with Michelle Richard at restaurant Citrus. After that, Liz did a quick stint with Food & Wines from France doing wine and food pairings, worked at Tryst Restaurant then moved to Checkers Hotel, a 5-star hotel, as pastry chef, for 5 years. She then went out on her own and opened “The Pig, Memphis Style BBQ” in West L.A. and Universal City Walk as co-owner which received accolades in The New York Times, Newsweek, Bon Appetit, Gourmet and was named “Best BBQ in Los Angeles” by Los Angeles Magazine 3 years in a row. Liz then taught pastry and restaurant management at The Art Institute of California for 4 years before moving on to Recipe Formulation and New Product Development, which has become her passion. She loves to hyper focus on one ingredient and create countless different recipes which allows her head to spin out creatively which is another area of her expertise. Baking with Herbs Liz is passionate about Baking with the natural flavor of fresh herbs from her garden which creates a unique taste experience. She takes any of her recipes, be it pastry or custards and infuses them through sugars, dairy and simple syrups to even make cocktails. Imagine going into your garden and grabbing a handful of fresh basil, lemongrass, lavender and even rose petals to transform your already fabulous crème brulee, into something even more fabulous. The same goes for ice cream, cookies, chocolates and of course cocktails. How about a Rose Petal and Lime Cosmopolitan in a glass rimmed with Rose Sugar? Dive into the world of Baking with Herbs with us that has been in existence going back 2000 years ago to the Spice Trade when herbs were more valuable than gold. You will learn which ingredient in to infuse depending on recipe, be it heavy cream, sugar or butter and the differences in the methods of doing so. We will create the following simple recipes that will awaken both your sense of taste and smell!

Traditionally, Black-led nonprofits have only received 2 to 4 percent of total philanthropic funding nationally. That's in part why Liz Thompson co-founded The 1954 Project, which seeks to radically redesign how philanthropy connects with Black leaders in education.

In this episode, host Aimée Eubanks Davis is in conversation with Liz Thompson about her organization's impact on the community.

To all those who have served our country, Happy Veterans Day. On Episode 78 of No Rain Date--in our interview with Hellertown resident, Marine Corps veteran and yoga instructor Liz Thompson--our focus is on veterans and their health. After serving a tour of duty during the Iraq War in 2004-2005, Liz returned to the U.S. and civilian life, only to gradually discover that she hadn't left the horrors of war behind. Despite some initial reluctance, she decided to try yoga as a means of reasserting control over her life. The rhythmic breathing and thoughtfulness of this ancient form of physical fitness helped her focus on her mental health and healing. Eventually she became a certified yoga instructor so she could help other veterans experience the same benefits from it. Today, she gives back to members of the local military community by leading a free yoga class for fellow veterans at the Hellertown American Legion, and through the nonprofit she founded, Balanced Warriors.

Blackstick and Olympian Elizabeth Thompson is one of New Zealand's most experienced defenders. If I were to use a word to sum her up, it would be “resilient.” Extremely resilient. Winning Gold at the 2018 Commonwealth games in the Gold Coast, Thompson is a seasoned and successful veteran of the New Zealand women's hockey team. Debuting at the age of 18 for her country, since then, the 25-year-old has accumulated 187 caps for New Zealand. Known for her silky drags and a cool head under pressure, Liz is a dynamic and lethal player on the field. In the podcast, we discuss not only the good times but the tough times too. Liz has experienced a number of setbacks in her career, and in this episode, we touch on these. Injury has been something she has had to deal with in the last four years. Tune in to hear how she has learnt to manage injuries, but more importantly, how she has cultivated and championed a mindset of resilience.

At Bass Coast, a beautiful boutique festival in the forests of British Columbia, everyone is a babe. What is a babe? A Bass Coast babe is a person of any gender who’s really feeling themselves. This party is so full of embodied bodies that it’s often affectionately referred to as “Babe Coast.” The festival is also famously run by women, Liz Thompson and today’s guest on the show, the beloved Andrea Graham, aka The Librarian. On the podcast, Andrea and I chat about the unique alchemy of safe, sexy, and silly that creates a liberated vibe. We get nuanced on feminine leadership, gender parity in festival lineups and the tedious questions posed to women who produce electronic music. Andrea also generously models a balanced life of adventure and does it with the coy humor that is iconic of both her and her festival. Also, at the end of the podcast we get a tasty bite of Andrea’s track Blue Tusk so stick around for the beats! Everyone can be a babe at Bass Coast and that’s an ethos we can all bring into our daily lives.

In 2015, on a state visit to Great Britain, Chinese Premier Xi Jinping called 17th-century Chinese playwright Tang Xianzu the “Shakespeare of the East,” and ever since, the Ministry of Culture for the People’s Republic has made a concerted push to elevate Tang to the status of Shakespeare. This episode explores just who Tang Xianzu was, and – more broadly – looks at what role Shakespeare plays in modern-day China. Our guests, Wei Feng and Alexa Alice Joubin, study the intersection of China and Shakespeare. They are interviewed by Barbara Bogaev. From the Shakespeare Unlimited podcast series.

  Ever thought about writing a book? Never thought about writing a book? Today's guest Liz Thompson from House Style Editing is introducing us to the world of writing a book; she shares reasons why you might want to write your very own book. She takes us through the complete writing process and shares her secrets all around finding the right editor for your first book.   Takeaways from today's show: Writing a book is a project with multiple phases, you can't skip or blend the different periods without messing up the result. Finding the right editor for your book is essential. Talk to as many editors as you need to talk to, to find one that speaks your language, has experience in your genre and just feels like the right fit. During the writing process, it makes sense to let members of your audience proofread your book. Make sure you give the book to people that aren't loved once that would prase your work even if it was awful. To make the proofreading process easier give them specific questions they can answer about every chapter of the book. So you can find out where exactly you need to go in and improve your work.   Mentioned in the Show: House Style Editing: http://www.housestyleediting.com/ Grammarly https://app.grammarly.com The Sparkling Creative Community: https://www.facebook.com/groups/243968072673994/ The Mini Sessions: https://app.acuityscheduling.com/schedule.php?owner=12775174&appointmentType=1895716 I've been working with so many creatives that thought the next grand business strategy or a new creative product they're going to offer would bring them more of what they wanted.  More money!  More fulfillment!  More time!  More happiness!

As new entrepreneurs, we are hungry for clients. It can be tempting to take on a project that doesn’t feel quite right because we need the money and want the experience. But today’s guest argues that a poor fit leads to immense frustration, and she is here to offer strategies that will help you determine whether a client is a good match on the front end so that both parties feel comfortable moving forward. Liz Thompson earned her undergraduate degree in communication, then pursued master’s degrees in English and literature. She worked in editing and communication in the corporate world for 15 years before taking the leap into entrepreneurship. When Liz got married two years ago, the timing was right to start her own firm so that she would have the flexibility to stay home and raise her new blended family. Liz is on a mission to help writers find and refine their voice and share their stories with the world. She takes on fiction and non-fiction projects, and she loves to edit cookbooks. Today Liz shares her secrets around building a clientele, online networking, and pricing her services. Listen in and learn how Liz approaches scheduling clients and the process she employs to choose clients who are a good fit.   Key Takeaways How Liz built a clientele Got connected with entrepreneur groups early on (primarily online) Enlisted help of business coach Found Facebook groups where ideal clients ‘lived’ Offered authentic help on platform Subsequent clients through referrals   The value of online networking groups like Boss Mom Going through similar things (parents building businesses) Wide range of experience Experts in different areas of need (i.e.: designing websites)   How Liz made the decision to invest in a business coach Had already invested in several courses 15-minute coaching call with Dana Malstaff led to Liz's first client Made sense to invest up front on person who would help grow business   How Liz structures the working relationship with writers Phone call to get overview of project, type of editing necessary Perform sample edit to determine fit Work on front-end helps avoid bad experiences   How Liz prices her editing services Rate per word depends on experience of writer, condition of manuscript Quote encompasses two rounds (developmental and copy editing)   Liz’s approach to scheduling clients Cap out number of projects per month Map out how much want to make, how many projects can take on Booked two to three months in advance   Why Liz only accepts clients that feel like a good fit Early on, took on client who requested partial edit of manuscript Many mistakes in portion she hadn’t edited, but name on project ‘If it doesn’t feel right, don’t do it’ Refers science fiction, highly technical business projects to other editors (not her interest, strength)   Resources Boss Moms Course: Slaying the Enemies of Good Writing   Connect with Elizabeth Thompson House Style Editing Facebook Instagram Twitter

Do you believe that you have a story to tell or a message to deliver to the world? Even more importantly, do you believe that you can get that message out as a bestselling book? It’s possible. Not only is it possible, today I’m going to introduce you to two people who can show you the exact way you can make it happen. My 4 guests on this episode are people I dearly love and care about - My two children, Kira and Kyler, and Rick and Liz Thompson, co-founders of Done For You Solutions and Next Best Sellers. That may sound like an unusual combination of people to have on one show, but if you take the time to listen it will make perfect sense to you because this edition of Growth to Freedom is not only about getting a bestselling Amazon book published, it’s also about balancing your business and entrepreneurial drive with the need for your family to be healthy and strong. Ric and Liz are experienced entrepreneurs and run a company that enables people just like you to get their story into book form and onto the Amazon bestseller charts. They’ve done it with over 100 books so far, and can do it with yours. Ric and Liz are also dedicated to their family and are very skilled at living out the entrepreneurial life and lifestyle with their family in tow. They are the first to admit that there are struggles and challenges when it comes to mixing entrepreneurism and family life, but they’ve been able to do it so far with great success and are eager to share that not only should that be the case for every entrepreneur, but that it CAN happen as well. In this conversation I chat with my kids about what it’s like to live in my home, which as you can imagine, is very much impacted by the world of business and entrepreneurism, and I ask Ric and Liz to pipe in with their insights regarding the struggles involved in doing both business and family as well. My kids are able to share their dreams for the future and Liz and Ric are able to share their great advice about communication, understanding, patience, and hard work that go into making the home/business balance a reality that actually works. And mixed in with all of that is Ric and Liz’ advice about how you can get the ideas and experience that is inside of you, out, and onto the pages of a book, and get it to the top of the Amazon bestseller list. That may sound like a pipe dream, or like something you’re not skilled enough to do, but I think by the end of this conversation, you’ll be a believer in what Ric and Liz can do for you, just like I am.   Here’s a glimpse of what you’ll learn in this show: [0:33] Dan’s introduction to today’s show and guests: Kyler and Kira, his children - AND Ric and Liz Thompson, founders of Done For You Solutions!
