Organic land represents years of investment in soil health, certification records, and the markets that reward that work. When that land changes hands, protecting that investment requires the right lease language, the right records and conversations that start well before anyone signs. This episode features Glennis McClure, farm and ranch management analyst at the Center for Agricultural Profitability at the University of Nebraska-Lincoln, and Carla McCullough Dittman, a Lancaster County landowner and advisor to the Nebraska Organic Program and the Transition to Organic Partnership Program. They walk through what it takes to keep certified organic acres organic through a land transition, from working with certifiers and documenting production history to writing lease terms that spell out compliance responsibilities and protect both parties. They also discuss what retiring organic farmers should be doing now to find the right successor and keep their land in organic production for the long term.Read more: https://cap.unl.edu/news/lease-considerations-and-communications-when-transitioning-organic-production/

Act MP Laura McClure joined Green MP Ricardo Menendes March on the NZ Herald this morning and accidently said the quiet part out loud confirming the only "minority" that ACT is ever focused on is Māori, which we've always known, but fascinating to hear the list MP publicly state it.Chris Penk joined Keiran McAnulty on Breakfast this morning where Penk spent a lot of time explain what he meant when he spoke of a conversation around NZ's nuclear free status and both members of parliament traded thoughts on the ongoing controversary between Fonterra and the PM's office.The country's political reporters are in a stand-off with the Speaker Gerry Brownlee over his contemplation of a temporary ban of Stuff Digital from Parliament. Brownlee is set to make a ruling on Stuff's access to the Parliamentary precinct after raising concerns about some of its reporting last month.++++++++++++++++++++Like us on Facebook.com/BigHairyNetwork Follow us on Twitter.com/@bighairynetworkFollowing us on TikTok.com/@bighairynetworkSupport us on Patreon www.patreon.com/c/BigHairyNewsCheck out our merch https://bhn.nz/shop/Donate to our work https://bhn.nz/shop/donation/

An MP facing Chinese sanctions is refusing to apologise for visiting Taiwan. ACT's Laura McClure has been banned from China for a year, along with NZ First's David Wilson, Labour's Duncan Webb, and National's Maureen Pugh. The four visited the self-governing island territory last month. McClure told Heather du Plessis-Allan it's an intimidation tactic – likely to put people off visiting Taiwan, but she hopes that won't happen. She says Taiwan has long-been an important economic and cultural partner, like China itself. LISTEN ABOVE See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

The ACT Party is defending voting in favour of homeschooling legislation before it was scrapped after pushback from families. The amendments announced last week would've increased checks on children taught at home. Education Minister Erica Stanford now concedes homeschooling is more complex than first thought. ACT's Laura McClure told Ryan Bridge they were rushed into voting for it. She says they didn't have a lot of time to consider the changes and how they would've worked, and whether the homeschooling community was given enough of a say.

Women's health is a team sport. That's something we've all learned the hard way—not in residency, but years later when we realized how much we weren't taught about vulvovaginal health.In this episode, I sit down with Dr. Meredith McClure from Dallas and Dr. Ashley Fuller from Seattle. They co-host the Labialogic podcast and both specialize in treating the conditions that most doctors either miss or dismiss—lichen sclerosus, desquamative inflammatory vaginitis, recurrent BV and yeast infections that won't go away.All three of us left obstetrics years ago and now run gynecology-only practices. And we've all come to the same conclusion: what we learned in training wasn't enough. We were taught not to examine the clitoris. We weren't taught proper vulvar anatomy. We weren't taught how to diagnose or treat the complex cases that show up in our offices every single day.We talk about why there's no one-size-fits-all approach to recurrent infections. We discuss the tests that doctors over-rely on for BV diagnosis that aren't actually accurate. And we share some of the worst medical gaslighting stories we've heard—like telling a PGAD patient "you've been through childbirth, how bad could this be?"We also discuss AI in medicine, why private equity is a problem, and how teaching women proper anatomical language changes outcomes.Highlights:We were all trained in residency not to examine the clitoris, which means many vulvar conditions get missed.Recurrent BV has no one-size-fits-all approach. Some DNA tests only check for Gardnerella and lead to false positives and overtreatment when what works depends on each person's unique microbiome.Don't use one-dose Monistat. It can cause severe inflammatory reactions in the vulva.Some vaginal inflammation doesn't show up on swabs and requires a microscope exam to diagnose properly.Teaching women proper anatomical language (knowing vulva vs. vagina, labia minora vs. majora) actually improves treatment outcomes.Lichen sclerosus is one of the most commonly missed diagnoses because doctors aren't examining the vulva properly.We hope that this episode gave you information that can help you understand that there are clinicians out there that want to help and find answers to your vulvovaginal health concerns.I appreciate everyone who is part of this community, and if you haven't already done so, I would appreciate you subscribing as it helps more women find the show so that they can get the information that they are looking for.Connect with Dr. Fuller:Website PodcastInstagramFacebookConnect with Dr. McIntireWebsiteInstagramGet in Touch with Me:WebsiteInstagramYoutubeSubstack

Packinghouse's Sunday morning worship service from April 19, 2026. Acts 20:24 becomes a defining lens for understanding a life that is steady, surrendered, and rooted in the grace of God. As Paul faces uncertainty, suffering, and even death, he declares that none of these things move him because his life is no longer his own—his aim is simply to finish his course with joy and faithfully testify to the gospel. This message explores how that kind of stability is formed, not through ease but through trials that deepen dependence on God, reminding us that nothing we face is outside His control or beyond His sustaining grace. Rather than resisting hardship, believers are invited to see it as part of God's shaping work, producing endurance and maturity. In the end, a life anchored in Christ is not defined by comfort or circumstance, but by a steady resolve to walk faithfully with Him and finish well. - Don McClure - Sunday, April 19, 2026

Quotes from the episode: "The emotional side of letting go and the identity shift is something nobody really warns you about."   "Clarity is kindness, especially when the chips are down." "Intelligence gets beaten by emotional regulation and patience every day." (Tommy Mello)   This episode is a true "collab" between Building HVAC Science and HVAC School Podcasts, with Bill Spohn Sr. and Bill "Billy" Spohn Jr. (TruTech Tools) joining Bryan Orr and his dad Robert Orr (Kalos Services) to talk candidly about family business succession. They dig into the part nobody really warns you about: the emotional identity shift of letting go, moving from decision maker to advisor, and the weird tension of still being "the face" of the brand while your successor has to establish themselves.   From there, the conversation gets practical. The group compares how succession looks in a 24-person company versus a 400-person contractor, and why the fundamentals still rhyme: role clarity, accountability, and the right people in the right seats. Bill and Billy share how EOS helped "bake in" structure that made the handoff less chaotic, including accountability charts and more frequent performance conversations. Bryan and the Orrs add their lens on stewardship, culture, and doing right by people when the chips are down.   They wrap with advice for other family businesses: start earlier than you think, make a public commitment so you cannot quietly back out, seek outside counsel to keep your head from lying to you, and do not carry unresolved issues into family life. The final note lands on something bigger than succession itself: prepare for "what's next" so retirement does not become fading away, and keep relationships, forgiveness, and emotional regulation at the center if you want the business and the family to survive the transition   Bryan's LinkedIn:https://www.linkedin.com/in/bryanorrkalos/ Robert's LinkedIn:https://www.linkedin.com/in/rborr/ Billy's LinkedIn:https://www.linkedin.com/in/billy-spohn-jr-a06201a3/ Bill's LinkedIn:https://www.linkedin.com/in/billspohn/ Books we referenced: Traction By Gino Wickman RocketFuel by Gino Wickman & Mark Winters Succeeding.

In this special collaborative episode between the Building HVAC Science Podcast and HVAC School, host Bryan Orr sits down with his father and co-founder Robert Orr (Kalos) and Bill and Billy Spohn, the father-son duo behind TruTech Tools, for an in-depth conversation about the realities of running, transitioning, and ultimately passing the torch in a family-owned business. What makes this episode particularly compelling is that both pairs are actively living through their own succession journeys in real time, offering listeners an unusually candid and personal look at the emotional, structural, and cultural dimensions of handing off a business you helped build from the ground up. The conversation begins with each participant sharing where they stand today. Bill Spohn Sr. is transitioning into semi-retirement as CEO and co-owner of TruTech Tools, which has tripled in revenue since his son Billy joined the company in 2018. Billy Spohn has stepped into the role of President and co-owner, focusing on working on the business rather than in it. Robert Orr, co-founder of Kalos alongside Bryan, has similarly stepped back after a formalized three-year succession plan, with Bryan now holding majority ownership and day-to-day control. Together, these four men represent two different approaches to the same deeply human challenge: what does it really mean to let go of something you built, and how do you do it in a way that honors both the past and the future? A major theme throughout the episode is the emotional weight of identity and transition that founders and long-time leaders rarely talk about openly. Both Bill Spohn Sr. and Robert Orr reflect candidly on how much of their personal identity has been wrapped up in their respective companies, and how surprising it has been to grapple with the shift from decision-maker to advisor. Robert speaks movingly about health challenges, including having suffered strokes, that accelerated his thinking about succession and mortality. The group explores how no amount of business planning fully prepares you for the emotional reality of stepping back, and yet both men express genuine peace and gratitude for how their transitions have unfolded. The honesty in these reflections is rare and refreshing, especially in business media that often skips the messy human middle. The discussion also digs deeply into the operational and cultural infrastructure that makes a successful handoff possible. TruTech Tools implemented the Entrepreneurial Operating System (EOS) starting in 2022, a framework that Billy says was one of the greatest gifts his father could have given him before assuming leadership. EOS brought role clarity, accountability structures, and regular team rhythms that transformed how the company functions. Bryan and Robert took a more organic approach at Kalos, leaning on trust, a shared value system, and clearly defined responsibilities that evolved over years of working side by side. Both companies emphasize that clarity and accountability are non-negotiable, regardless of company size, and that culture is not a poster on the wall but a reflection of how leaders actually behave when things get hard. The episode closes with practical advice for other family business owners navigating similar journeys. Key takeaways include starting the conversation early, building an advisory board outside the company, making public commitments to accountability, investing in business reading and peer groups, holding regular family meetings so that everyone understands the plan, and above all, prioritizing emotional health and the ability to have hard conversations before they become festering resentments. Bryan offers a memorable point: intelligence gets beaten by emotional regulation and patience every day. The group is unanimous that succession planning is not a single event but a thousand small handoffs, and the best time to start preparing is well before you feel ready. Topics Covered Introductions: Bryan Orr (Kalos), Robert Orr (Kalos co-founder), Bill Spohn Sr. (TruTech Tools CEO), and Billy Spohn (TruTech Tools President) TruTech Tools 3x revenue growth since Billy joined in 2018 The emotional side of letting go: identity shifts, loss of relevance, and the unexpected grief of stepping back from a business you built Moving from decision-maker to advisor: how both Bill Sr. and Robert are navigating this transition Legacy vs. transactional business: building to keep versus building to sell, and the stewardship mindset The baton handoff metaphor: why succession is a thousand small transitions, not one dramatic moment Robert Orr on health challenges (strokes) that accelerated his thinking about succession planning EOS (Entrepreneurial Operating System) at TruTech Tools: what it is, how it was implemented over two years starting in 2022, and why Billy credits it as the single biggest gift for his leadership journey Role clarity and accountability charts versus traditional org charts Quarterly employee check-ins as an alternative to annual reviews How Kalos grew organically without a formal EOS framework, and the value of building structure around trust and shared values GWC framework from EOS: Gets it, Wants it, Capacity to do it Kalos hitting 400+ employees and the challenges that come with scale Culture preservation through succession: how core values survive a leadership change Faith-based principles in business culture: loving your neighbor, leading with grace, clarity as kindness The concept of stewardship: feeling responsible for a business rather than simply owning it Separate job descriptions for CEO vs. President at TruTech Tools and why it mattered for the whole team Bryan on having five family members working at Kalos and maintaining clear boundaries between family and professional roles Advice for family businesses: start early, overcommunicate, make public commitments, seek outside advisors Building a small advisory board outside the company for outside perspective Recommended resources: business peer groups, books on succession planning, and the EOS/Traction framework by Gino Wickman The importance of family meetings for keeping non-active family members informed and aligned Forgiveness and reconciliation as a foundation for healthy family business relationships Having hard conversations proactively so tension does not carry into family life Bill Spohn Sr.'s closing reflection on what comes after stepping back, and the importance of preparing for your next chapter in life Resources mentioned: Traction by Gino Wickman Rocket Fuel by Gino Wickman & Mark Winters Succeeding by Albert Ciuksza Good to Great by Jim Collins Family Business Succession: The Final Test of Greatness by Aronoff, McClure, & Ward Process! by Mike Paton and Lisa Gonzalez The Business Transition Handbook by Laurie R.

Michi McClure is the founder of Consivian, where she helps leaders and organizations bridge the gap between compliance and culture through leadership development, coaching, and operational strategy. With a law background and decades of experience advising startups, medical groups, and corporations, she brings a steady, practical framework rooted in integrity and accountability. Key discussion themes Resilience as a skill built through real-world bumps and adjustments “Truth to power” and why staff often feel unsafe speaking honestly How unclear rules create “box-checking culture” and disengagement Alignment between leadership intent and staff experience Why compliance can be a growth strategy by forcing better creativity Starting before you're ready—and finishing with intention Listener takeaway If your culture feels stuck, don't start with motivation posters. Start with the rules, expectations, and conversations people don't feel safe having. Alignment is operational—and it's fixable.
