It takes a village to raise a child... or does it? In this episode, Loree and Lauren look into the chaotic world of modern parenting, where networking feels impossible, and isolation is just part of the gig. They chat about the struggle of asking for help (because who doesn't love pretending they've got it all together?), and how grandparents fit into the equation, no matter where they may be geographically.The duo also tackles the role of technology in making family bonds stronger (or just sending your kids into a YouTube rabbit hole for hours), and the ever-elusive balance of power between parents and schools. Loree and Lauren remind us that it's okay to question the rules—even your own. By the end of this episode, you'll be ready to take on parenting (maybe) with a village of support or at least a group text chain that kind of counts as a community. Get ready for some real talk about the messiness of raising kids, finding your people, and learning that asking for help is not a sign of weakness—unless you're asking your toddler to help clean up their toys. In that case, good luck!To schedule a private coaching session with Loree visit https://www.loreebischoff.com/Suffer less & experience happiness more: ‘Common Sense Happiness' on Amazon: https://amzn.to/2GIQOPF T he Teen Life Coaching course is available here: https://www.tlccourse.com/

While the IDF has struck over 7,000 targets and hit over 40 senior Hizbullah commanders since October 7, this was not demonstrating any strategy to bring 60,000 Israeli back to their homes along the frontier. This according to reserve Lt.-Col. Sarit Zehavi, a former intelligence officer and today president and founder of Alma research and education center. She told reporter Arieh O'Sullivan that Israel needed to work with international communities to reach long-term arrangements dealing with Iran and going beyond just a ceasefire. She also said that it was Hizbullah's policy to fire on populated towns. (photo: IDF spokesman) See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Have you ever stopped for a second and thought about all of the things you do at work in a week? There are some tasks most of us need to do to be successful at our jobs. But do you also find yourself doing other tasks like administrative work, planning and setting up for parties, or training new employees? And have these responsibilities started to take over your work days? If so, you're not alone. These types of tasks are called “non-promotable tasks” and women volunteer for them far more often than men. Dorie Clark's new book, The Long Game: How To Be A Long-Term Thinker In A Short-Term World delves into how the little tasks we do day to day at work may be harming our long-term career strategy. Chapters: 00:00: Introduction 02:57: Busyness as an Anesthetic 07:42: Defining Long-Term and Short-Term Thinking 14:56: The Importance of Saying No 18:32: Optimizing for Interesting 25:56: Career Waves and Making Smart Choices 28:51: Conclusion Takeaways: Non-promotable tasks, such as administrative work and planning office parties, can take up valuable time and prevent you from focusing on tasks that align with your long-term career goals. It is important to recognize and address overworking as a coping mechanism. Long-term thinking involves considering the big picture and making choices that optimize for interesting and meaningful work. Saying no can be challenging, but it is important to set boundaries and prioritize tasks that align with personal and professional goals. Asking important questions, such as the total cost and physical/emotional impact of a task, can help evaluate requests and make informed decisions. Navigating different phases of a career involves transitioning between learning, sharing, connecting, and reaping phases, and being willing to disrupt oneself to avoid stagnation.

The crucial debate between organic and paid advertising. Paid ads are quicker and more predictable results, but organic has the potential to produce an even higher roi. Paid advertising allows for consistent traffic flow and scalable sales, which are essential for building a real business as opposed to a hobby. Paid ads provide control and predictability, making it easier to achieve revenue goals and demonstrate profitable acquisition channels, a critical factor when selling a business to potential buyers. Organic growth, while valuable in the long run, is less predictable and takes longer to yield significant returns.Successful businesses need a balance of both paid and organic strategies. While paid ads offer immediate returns and scalability, organic content is a long-term investment that enhances brand value and trust. Effective paid advertising requires testing, optimization, and a solid product or service. By understanding and leveraging both paid and organic methods, businesses can achieve sustainable growth and improved valuations.CHAPTER TITLES1:17 - The Importance of Both Paid Ads and Organic Growth 1:50 - Why Paid Ads are Essential for Business Consistency 2:51 - Comparing Paid Ads to Organic Growth4:03 - Analogies: Paid Ads vs. Organic Growth4:29 - The Challenges and Benefits of Paid Ads 5:10 - The Long-Term Value of Organic Growth6:17 - Building a Balanced Strategy 6:56 - Organic Growth as a Long-Term Strategy 7:15 - Paid Ads and Business Valuation 8:44 - Examples of Big Brands Using Paid Ads9:10 - The Role of Different Types of Paid Traffic 10:39 - The Myth of Affording Paid Ads 11:58 - Personal Success Stories with Paid Ads12:42 - Integrating Organic Growth and Paid Ads 12:56 - Creating Viral and Branded Content for Organic Growth14:33 - The Importance of Testing in Paid Ads 14:51 - Guidance for Members on Paid and Organic Strategies 16:06 - Summary and Final Thoughts on Paid vs. OrganicConnect with Rudy Mawer:LinkedInInstagramFacebookTwitter
