Kathryn interviews Entrepreneur, Speaker Jim Marggraff.How can grandparents help keep students engaged in schoolwork and eager to learn more? Researchers say it's something surprisingly simple: Play with them. Studies suggest that movement activities have a highly positive influence on a child's overall physical activity and learning ability. Educational innovator Jim Marggraff, known to millions of kids as the inventor of the LeapPad (and the voice of The Narrator), is here to share fun facetime activities to help our kids become better students by enhancing their activities at home. He's a serial inventor, entrepreneur, philanthropist, author, speaker, and an energized dad and husband. He holds 56 issued patents, is an Ernst and Young Entrepreneur of the Year, one of MIT's top 150 inventors, and was declared a Father of the Year by the National Father's Day Council.Kathryn also interviews Author Michael Schnabel. In each person's life there are events that forever change their course. Twenty-seven year old Stephanie experienced two of these events in fourteen days; the birth of her only child and discovery that she has an 8 percent chance of living. She is haunted by the thought that this baby will only know her through pictures, until she makes that thought her motivation to survive. Michael Schnabel, Stephanie's father, tells the story of survival and how three generations of a family respond to crisis. Stephanie's courage is fueled by her son's deep brown eyes and unconditional love. Her faith comes from the belief that something greater than us provides what we need, when we need it. A graduate of Northern State University, Schnabel developed his passion for writing and storytelling during his thirty-year career at Bristol-Myers Squibb.

In this episode, Carrie and Blake discuss: What exactly is "deviceless remote patient monitoring"?Why did CareSignal choose to focus in the value-based care space as early as 2015 -- and how did they succeed there?What role do Social Determinants of Health play in value-based care models?Key Takeaways: Deviceless remote patient monitoring strikes a good balance between remote monitoring and patient engagement for value based care without relying on peripheral devices. When a product is designed to be easy to use, it becomes accessible to as many people as possible and therefore has the potential to help as many people as possible too.CareSignal decided from a risk-reward perspective that it was optimal to take the risk that the value based care trend wouldn't pan out. The reward if they could build the first product that could really scale for remote monitoring and engagement in a true value based care arena would make that risk worthwhile.A lot of physicians and clinicians are experiencing burnout as well as staffing shortages. This fear that technology will displace them actually allows for companies to position their technology as a way to allow physicians and clinicians to operate at their highest level of practice while some of the other things are taken care of by technology. “Improving health equity by supporting social determinants of health is the right thing to do clinically, as humans. But now, it's the right thing to do financially as well. And it's just going to become more and more so.” - Blake MarggraffConnect with Blake Marggraff: Website: https://caresignal.health/ LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/marggraff/ Twitter: https://twitter.com/blakemarggraff Learn more from Carrie and Rebecca: Healthcare Insights (a monthly deep dive into specific topics for innovators): https://nixongwiltlaw.com/healthcare-insightsTelehealth/Virtual Care Mgmt Update (a biweekly LinkedIn newsletter tracking legal and policy changes across the nation): https://www.linkedin.com/newsletters/telehealth-virtual-care-update-6901900767960068096/ Website: https://nixongwiltlaw.com/ Carrie on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/carrienixon/ Rebecca on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/rebeccagwilt/NGL on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/nixon-gwilt-law/

There’s that lovely saying that goes something like, "One man’s weed is another man’s wildflower".   This is especially true in the case of Queen Anne’s Lace.   In the Facebook group for the show, listener Danny Perkins shared how much he enjoyed allowing Queen Anne’s Lace to reign all over in his garden. I feel the same way. But, others do not.... and, I respect that.   I think one of the reasons I personally enjoy Queen Anne’s Lace is because it reminds me of Baby's Breath - which does not like to return as a perennial in my garden. On the other hand, this year, I started growing Valerian and I would say that it is another alternative to Baby's Breath and it is similar to Queen Anne’s Lace.   Another charming characteristic of Queen Anne’s Lace  is that it’s a member of the carrot family. If you crush the leaves and stem, you’ll notice a carrot odor.   It's no wonder the scientific name for Queen Anne’s Lace is Daucus carota and the common name is wild carrot.   Here’s a fun fact: the Romans ate Queen Anne’s Lace as a vegetable.   And here’s an herbal application: the root juice of Queen Anne’s Lace is wonderful for treating itchy skin.       Brevities   #OTD    It’s the anniversary of the death of Andreas Marggraff who died on this day in 1782.  Marggraff was a German chemist. In 1747, he figured out a way to isolate glucose from raisins. That same year, he announced his discovery of finding sugar in beets and he came up with a way to use alcohol to extract it.   Marggraff’s discovery was not used commercially while he was alive. It wasn’t until 1802, that the first beat sugar refinery opened its doors... and the modern sugar industry was born.       #OTD  Today in 1840 the world lost a wonderful physician and botanist by the name of Henry Perrine. As a botanist, Perrine was first recognized for his work with quinine as a cure for malaria.   Perrine also served as a US Ambassador to the Yucatán. As a result of his position, Perrine was able to bring many tropical plants from Mexico and Caribbean to the United States.   In 1838, the United States Congress gave Perrine a land grant which he used to establish a place to grow plants in the Florida Keys.   At the time Florida was a territory. Perrine believed that the Florida Keys and  South Florida offered the perfect climate for creating what he hoped would be one of the great botanical gardens of the world.   Perrine's vision was to turn the wasteland into a tropical paradise   Perrine shared his hopes when he wrote to Congress, saying:   “This land will grow every tropic a growth in abundance… With settlers on 5 acre parcels, growing such plants - this South Florida area [can] support more population than any... area in the entire south end [as well as] the happiest living conditions…"   On Christmas day and 1838, Dr. Perrine and his wife and their children moved to Indian key   Perrine was in love with his new surroundings. Unlike many South Florida settlers, Perrine believed that he could live in peace; side-by-side with the local American Indians.   Perrine's work was showing promise until this day in 1840.    Perrine ’s neighbor was a radical named Jacob Hausman. Hausman had gathered a small militia and had offered Congress a deal; he would kill every American Indian in South Florida and they would pay him $200 per body. Congress never got Hausman's letter, but the Seminole Indians in Florida had learned of Hausman’s plan.   It's no wonder, then, that on this day in 1840, they attacked Indian key. But, their chief target, Hausman, had escaped the attack by slipping away in a boat.   Dr. Perrine could hear the attack happening outside his house. He quickly tucked his wife and children into a turtle crawl beneath their house and he slid a chest of his Mexican seeds over the trap door in order to conceal it.   When the opportunity presented itself, Dr. Perrine spoke to the Indians in Spanish identifying himself as a friend and a doctor. The Indians left... but they returned that evening. They chased Perrine to the cupola of his house where they killed him. Then they set the house on fire.   Perrine's wife and children survived the entire ordeal in the turtle crawl, making their way through a narrow tunnel to the sea along side the turtles.    The following day a naval vessel rescued Hester Perrine and her children.   Today, Perrine and his legacy lives on in the botanicals he brought to Florida: the avocado, the key lime, the mango, and numerous agave.     #OTD   Today is the birthday of the Indian geneticist MS Swaminathan.   Swaminathan is the father of India’s Green Revolution; a movement which distributed high-yield wheat and rice varieties to poor farmers    When Swaminathan had graduated from college, he recognized that the number one issue facing his country was food scarcity. While others were concerned with independence, Swaminathan felt that agriculture was the country's highest priority.    Instead of pursuing medicine, which was his natural inclination, he decided to pursue degrees in agriculture. And, he continued to get a variety of degrees from numerous top universities from around the world. Swaminathan felt he could best help his country by solving the food problem.   On January 4, 1968, Swaminathan gave a lecture at the Indian Science Congress where he first coined the term Green Revolution. Swaminathan wanted to marry technology development and dissemination with ecology.  By developing high yielding wheat and rice varieties that small farmers could afford, the people of India became more independent.   Today, Swaminathan believes that every person has the right to have food.  This belief was forged during what he calls India’s ship to mouth existence - when India had to wait for ships from America, or other parts of the world, to bring in food. The journey from ship to mouth to seeing food as a right is a huge paradigm shift; one which professor Swaminathan has so humbly lead.        Unearthed Words "In August, the large masses of berries, which, when in flower, had attracted many wild bees, gradually assumed their bright velvety crimson hue, and by their weight again bent down and broke their tender limbs." - Henry David Thoreau "Summer is delicious, rain is refreshing, wind braces up, snow is exhilarating; there is no such thing as bad weather, only different kinds of good weather." - John Ruskin   Today's book recommendation: The Evening Garden: Flowers and Fragrance from Dusk Till Dawn by Peter Loewer   This book reveals both the history and science of the night garden. The topic of night-blooming plants has always fascinated gardeners. For example, newspaper articles over the past two centuries have shared excited reports of blooms on the night blooming cereus.   This book came out in the early 90's and was advertised to gardeners who found themselves working long hours during the daytime which equated to little time for gardening.   This book offers information about the history and the raising of night blooming plants as well as chapters on night fragrances, wildlife, and plans for outdoor lighting. It’s an oldie but goodie.   You can get copies of this book on Amazon using the today show notes for as little as $.25      Today's Garden Chore Add another layer of layer of mulch to your summer garden.   Just adding an extra layer of mulch helps keep the roots of your plants cooler and more moist during hot weather. In turn, that helps to lower the stress level of your plants during this time of the year.   This is also a good time to cover up some of the unsightly areas in your garden (spots where you have divided or harvested).   Or you can also refresh areas where your mulch has decomposed. Don’t forget that organic mulch is continuously decompose in your beds which in turn helps feed the soil. That said, you don’t want to go into fall or winter with your soil uncovered because open soil is an invitation for weeds - and that's a party you do not want to have to clean up after.         Something Sweet  Reviving the little botanic spark in your heart   Here's a little story about the New Zealand botanist Lucy Cranwell who was born On this day in 1907. Imagine yourself at 21? What were you doing? Well, at 21, Lucy was appointed the curator at the Auckland Museum. Barely more than a child herself, Lucy had a special talent for engaging young students.  Ever-encouraging and relatable, Lucy sparked a love of horticulture in her students.   Lucy, herself, had an excellent teacher growing up in the form of her father who was a trained nurseryman. Lucy grew up helping with the large orchard on their property.    It's no wonder then, that Lucy loved exploring and being in the field. During her days at the University Field Club, her peers knew her as the strongest and fastest walker at the University.   One of Lucy‘s dearest friends was the botanist Lucy Beatrice Moore. The two Lucys went on many botanical field trips together. It was a common practice during these trips to sleep out in the open in a sleeping bag. There were many mornings when the the women woke to find themselves covered in frost.   Lucy Cranwell served as the curator in Auckland for 14 years. During that time she collected over 4,000 plants for the herbarium and she created something she called "Botany Trots" - a term I absolutely adore.   Botany Trots were these little botanical excursions for the children of New Zealand. Now, isn't that sweet?     Thanks for listening to the daily gardener, and remember: "For a happy, healthy life, garden every day."

How Dreams Take Flight at Midlife Interview by Chicke Fitzgerald of the Game Changer Network as a part of the Best of the Game Changer series, showcased on C-Suite Network Are you going through your life on autopilot? Are you doing the day-to-day things that need to be done, but not doing what your heart is telling you to do? Finding the Wow is the uplifting story of a mom who realizes that she's not happy, just busy. When MJ and her friends—the Chicks in Charge—fight to redefine their second acts, they discover their strengths as they face their individual challenges—a failing marriage, long-forgotten dreams, and illness. MJ shares her own moments, harrowing and wonderful, great and small, on her journey to becoming a pilot. On these pages, you will find tales of humor, tragedy, excitement, disappointment, vulnerability, and the friendship of the invincible Chicks who battle obstacles, find courage, and triumph! Like the Chicks, you may find purpose in unexpected ways. But whatever your airplane is, fly it! MJ Marggraff is a commercial pilot, author, and a project leader who has created a unique and new space experiment which is currently on the International Space Station. Twelve years ago MJ would not have listed these things about herself; but that was before making a major course correction and adding something new to her calendar —Flight School— that changed her life completely. Her latest book, Finding the Wow – How Dreams Take Flight at Midlife, tells how, at age 45 and while an at-home mom of two young children, she decided to follow her childhood dreams, overcome her fears, and learn to fly. Making a change following a passion, and learning how to fend off fear and doubt began when MJ lost her planning book, decided to refill it with her dream and then make a remarkable experience come true for others. And there were plenty of fears: starting something new, being the only mom-female-older member in a flight class of young men, worrying her family, and wondering how she could pull over if something went wrong flying solo. Over the years, and after receiving several pilots' licenses, more doors opened to even higher dreams. MJ became a mission support assistant and trained for sub-orbital spaceflight, published articles on her flying stories, received an award for best humor in aviation, and keynote speaker at several events. Her stories inspire others to not let fear rule our life and to realize that we can reinvent ourselves at any age. Most importantly, she hopes that readers of Finding the Wow will be motivated to do what they love. Her experiment to space is underway as a pilot project that has already inspired students to touch the stars; NASA's education center is interested in offering it to thousands of students nationwide. Her background includes FAA Flight Instructor, M.Sc. in Education, and leadership and management positions at Hewlett-Packard and Genetics Institute where she worked to create better teams. She is currently researching issues on long-duration space flights and the ways to help on-board crews succeed on their difficult missions. MJ has been accepted to a doctoral program where she will continue her research, during which time she will find herself in strange and distant places.

Chicke is a philanthropreneur • she zigs where others zag, creating value, growth and bringing to life crazy good ideas that will leave a legacy

Simon Heijmans, maker van de podcastserie De Brand in het Landhuis, is te gast! Wrok, accenten, angst en muziek, landhuizen en branden en klimaat en scooters, en natuurlijk liefde: alles komt aan bod in deze aflevering.

In deze slotaflevering doet kunstdetective Arthur Brand een opzienbarende onthulling over de verdwenen schilderijencollectie van Marggraff. Er duikt een nieuwe bron op die uit de school klapt over de stichting die het beheer voert over het nagelaten vermogen van de exentrieke Brabantse grootgrondbezitter. De Marggraff Stichting heeft laten weten dat wij hetgeen wij in deze podcast vermelden ten aanzien van de statutenwijziging, het handelen in strijd met de wens van de familie en het doorsluizen van gelden naar andere stichtingen en activiteiten niet juist is. De statutenwijziging kent volgens de stichting praktische, fiscale en juridische gronden, is met de familie besproken en afgestemd met de Belastingdienst. Op https://marggraffstichting.nl/nieuws is het persbericht te lezen met daarin verwoord de mening van de Marggraff Stichting.

De zoektocht naar Boudewijn Reijenga, de huisvriend van Marggraff, voert Simon naar Gert-Jan van Beijnum in Den Bosch, een voormalig kraker van een van de vele panden van Ewald Marggraff. Van Beijnum blijkt een schat aan informatie te hebben. Geeft hij Simon een sleutel in handen? Heijmans wordt benaderd door iemand die ooggetuige was van de brand en komt in contact met Rob Bartol, een journalist van Omroep Brabant die wel even denkt te weten hoe het allemaal zit. Maar is dat wel zo? Wie liegt er en wie vertelt de waarheid?

Simon Heijmans gaat op zoek naar de huisvriend van Ewald Marggraff. Deze Boudewijn Reijenga blijkt zich jarenlang te hebben ingezet om de waarheid rond de verdwenen miljoenen en schilderijen boven tafel te krijgen. Zijn Youtube-kanaal staat vol met filmpjes over Marggraff. En Simon volgt het spoor van de verdwenen documenten van de ridders van de Duitse Orde. Om wat voor documenten gaat het? Hoe waarschijnlijk is het dat die in het landhuis bewaard werden en heeft de Duitse Orde die dan nooit gemist? Verder vraagt Simon zich af hoe Ewald Marggraff eigenlijk zo'n enorm fortuin vergaarde. Was het familiekapitaal? Hoe kwamen ze daaraan?
