Jesus isn't impressed by big numbers or loud moments—He notices trust and surrender. In a temple culture where giving had become a show, a poor widow quietly drops in two tiny coins—everything she had—and Jesus calls it “more.” Her story flips our idea of value and success, challenging us to loosen our grip on control, comfort, and security. God's math is different: He weighs trust and multiplies surrender. Even small, hidden acts of faith can move big things when placed in His hands. (Talk by Joshua Ott)

Kae Williams is a global software marketing executive on a mission to empower women in their careers through her work and her forthcoming book, Not Made For You. Kae works diligently to raise awareness about bias and hostile work cultures so that every woman will feel supported, respected, and enabled to achieve her full potential. Here are three key takeaways from the conversation about measuring organizational culture: Culture Needs Tangible Metrics, Not Just Talk: Organizations must treat culture like a business outcome, measuring it with the same rigor they apply to revenue and profit. This means looking at metrics such as retention rate and understanding that the main drivers of people leaving are burnout, not feeling supported, and lack of career growth. Focus on the "How," Not Just the "What": Performance reviews and rewards must balance the results an employee achieves with how they achieve them. A high performer who creates a toxic work environment will ultimately cost the company more in lost talent than the revenue they generate. Companies should actively reward behaviors like leading with empathy and being a "culture maker". Support and Train Your Managers: Middle managers are essential to the employee experience, but are often stuck without the right tools. Equipping them with skills like giving constructive, behavior-based feedback and knowing how to coach their teams is vital. Furthermore, organizations must audit workloads to prevent burnout and shift non-promotable tasks to avoid over-burdening women and marginalized employees.

Argentina Lithium CEO Nikolaos Cacos joined Steve Darling from Proactive to unveil the company's first-ever Mineral Resource estimate for its Rincon West lithium brine project located in Salta Province, Argentina—a key step forward in advancing the company's lithium portfolio within the heart of the “Lithium Triangle.” The inaugural resource estimate, completed for the West Block properties—including the Villanoveño II and Rinconcita II mining concessions covering 2,931 hectares—marks a significant milestone for Argentina Lithium. The estimate excludes the Paso de Sico concessions to the north, which add another 3,742.9 hectares of prospective ground at the Rincon Salar, representing future upside for the project. The resource was defined through 14 exploration boreholes totaling 4,823.2 metres of diamond drilling and one production well extending 470 metres. Based on this work, the company reports: Measured and Indicated Resources: 0.15 km³ of brine averaging 296 mg/L lithium, equivalent to 238,000 tonnes of Lithium Carbonate Equivalent (LCE). Inferred Resources: 0.08 km³ of brine averaging 216 mg/L lithium, equivalent to 64,000 tonnes of LCE. Cacos emphasized that the results demonstrate Rincon West's potential as a scalable, high-quality lithium asset within one of the world's most prolific brine districts. “This maiden resource lays a solid foundation for our next phase of development as we work toward building a sustainable, high-value lithium operation capable of generating long-term returns,” he said. As the company moves ahead with Preliminary Economic Assessment (PEA) studies and evaluates advanced direct lithium extraction (DLE) technologies, exploration teams will also target deeper drilling below the current resource boundary—where geologic data indicates open mineralization at depth and significant room for expansion. With a strong technical foundation and growing land position, Argentina Lithium is positioning Rincon West as a key contributor to Argentina's emerging lithium supply chain, supporting the accelerating global demand for electric vehicle and energy storage materials. #proactiveinvestors #argentinalithium&energycorp #tsxv #lit #otcqx #lilif #proactiveinvestors #argentinalithium&energycorp #tsxv #lit #otcqx #lilif

Gunnison Copper Corp CEO Stephen Twyerould joined Steve Darling from Proactive to announce that the company has launched a non-brokered private placement to raise gross proceeds of up to C$15 million, with Red Cloud Securities Inc. acting as finder in connection with the financing. Twyerould explained that net proceeds from the offering will be allocated toward drilling, metallurgical testing, and permitting activities, all of which will feed into a Pre-Feasibility Study (PFS) for the company's flagship Gunnison Copper Project in Arizona. In addition, a portion of the proceeds will be used for the partial repayment of outstanding debt owed to Nebari Holdings. The Gunnison Copper Project is among the most advanced in-situ recovery copper projects in North America, with a Measured and Indicated Mineral Resource of over 831.6 million tons grading 0.31% copper, including 640.2 million tons at 0.29% copper in the Indicated category. The company's Preliminary Economic Assessment (PEA) highlighted robust project economics, including an NPV (8%) of US$1.3 billion, an internal rate of return (IRR) of 20.9%, and a payback period of just over four years. Twyerould emphasized that this raise represents an important step in advancing the Gunnison Project toward pre-feasibility, positioning Gunnison Copper for the next stage of development in a rising copper price environment driven by the global energy transition. #proactiveinvestors #gunnisoncoppercorp #tsx #gcu #otcqb #gcumf r #CopperMining #USMining #CopperProject #MiningInvestment #CommodityMarkets #CopperProduction #ArizonaMining #ResourceDevelopment #MiningStocks #CopperDemand #MetalsAndMining

On this Make A Difference Minute, I'm reminding listeners that success isn't defined by titles, positions, or wealth, but by the obstacles we've overcome along the way. Drawing from the wisdom of Booker T. Washington, this segment celebrates perseverance, resilience, and the strength it takes to keep going when life gets hard. True success is found in the climb, in the moments of struggle that shape who we become. Sponsor: Athens Bible School AthensBibleSchool.org

Send us a textA four-day work week is not a gimmick. Done right, it can reduce burnout, stabilize output, and help you keep great people. Our guest today shares that after two years of doing a 4-day work week model, they saw a 46% increase in staff morale and wellbeing. This is only one of the many amazing benefits Imagine Canada has seen! In this episode of The Small Nonprofit Podcast, Maria Rio sits down with Jodene Baker, Vice President of Research, Advocacy and External Relations at Imagine Canada. Jodene oversees national research and policy efforts supporting Canada's nonprofit sector. Imagine Canada also builds tools like Grant Connect and advocates federally to strengthen the sector. Maria and Jodene discuss the challenges of starting, decent work practices, and how to measure the unmeasurable. 4-Day Work Week for Nonprofits - The Highlights: Why try a four-day week in the first place The sector is stretched: lower average pay, rising demand, and chronic burnout. Imagine Canada saw the same internal pressures and chose to test a four-day week to improve staff wellbeing and retention while holding impact. Their model is 100 percent pay, 80 percent time, 100 percent outcomes Imagine Canada works Monday to Thursday and closes Fridays. There is no pay cut and no compressed schedule. This pilot began in January 2023 and is now extended through 2026. It remains a pilot so they can keep measuring and adjust if needed. Preparation made the shift workable They joined the Four Day Week Global pilot, created a cross-functional staff group, set clear goals, and defined success metrics. They also cleaned up calendars: Audited and shortened meetings Made Monday afternoons meeting-free internally Blocked Fridays well in advance to build the habit Measured results: wellbeing up, sick days down, impact stable They track roughly 50 metrics across wellbeing, productivity, and outputs.  Recruitment and retention improved Candidates now cite the four-day week as a reason to apply. Staff attrition has dropped exponentially.  

Today marks two years since I started serving on the Haslett School Board.It also marks about a decade of my fascination with education in the United States.I consider myself lucky to be in Haslett. We're not perfect, and COVID definitely impacted our kids, but our academic performance has been stronger than almost all of the surrounding communities.Especially compared to Holt, where I graduated. I say this with sadness, not superiority. Holt has not been doing well lately.This journey has taken me deep into the world of education. I've asked hard questions like, why did schools move away from using phonics instruction to teach reading?Books like The Knowledge Gap and podcasts like Sold a Story helped me understand the system, and more importantly, helped me intervene to teach our 7-year-old how to actually read.I also became a Certified School Board Member through MASB, which opened my eyes to how school districts really operate, the trade-offs, the complexity, the constraints.One of the most inspiring examples I've found is what people call the Mississippi Miracle.In 2013, Mississippi ranked 49th in 4th grade reading scores. By 2022, they were 21st overall, and top 5 in the country for Black, low-income, and special education students. They focused on direct instruction, phonics, teacher training, and retention policies. It worked.All of that has been fascinating.But nothing has impressed me as much as Alpha School.What Is Alpha School?Alpha School is a high-end private school, built from the ground up like a product, designed to make school awesome for kids. At the center is a powerful learning engine they call, Time Back. Students come in and spend just two hours a day with the AI-powered tutor. This tutor delivers direct instruction, constantly adapting based on what the student needs. As Joe puts it, your age grade and your knowledge grade are two totally different things. The system teaches to mastery, not to the average. Every lesson is personalized, every gap is closed. Students learn 10 times faster, and consistently perform in the top 1% nationally. The real unlock is time back. With core academics finished in two hours, students have four more hours each day to focus on “life skills” workshops. Getting their Time Back is a huge motivation for the students. Life skills workshops include things like leadership, financial literacy, public speaking, entrepreneurship projects like running a food truck, robotics, sports, and chess tournaments. The rest of the day is team-based, project-based, and fun. It's not screen time — it's real-world preparation. As Joe says, the key to motivation is progress and choice, and Alpha delivers both.Here's how Alpha works, and why it's blowing my mind.Alpha's 5 Core Commitments* Kids Must Love SchoolNot tolerate it: love it. Alpha students are asked, would you rather go to school or go on vacation? Last year some of their high schoolers said, can we skip summer break because we don't want to stop. That kind of love.* Kids Must Learn 10x FasterAlpha has built a two-hour academic model using AI and learning science. Students spend two hours a day with their AI tutor, and that's it. Their academic performance is in the top 1% nationally. It's not that the kids are smarter, it's that the model works better.* The Rest of the Day Is for LifeWith the academic work done in the morning, the rest of the day is for life skills. Workshops on leadership, public speaking, entrepreneurship, personal finance, and teamwork. Real skills, no busywork, no screens.* Guides Instead of TeachersAlpha doesn't have traditional teachers. They have Guides. These adults are responsible for making sure kids love school, learn quickly, and grow as people. They don't lecture. They coach, support, and hold students to high expectations.* High Standards Create Happy KidsThis one is the most opposite of all. Alpha believes happiness comes from high standards, not low ones. Kids struggle, fail, cry, and then succeed. That builds real confidence and resilience. That's the kind of happiness that lasts.What Joe Discovered About EducationJoe is not an educator. He's a systems guy. A product builder. Which means he noticed things that others missed.Here are some of the biggest things Alpha has uncovered:* Motivation is 90% of the solutionThe problem isn't attention span or tech, it's motivation. When school only takes two hours a day, every kid wants to learn. Giving kids their time back is the unlock.* Swiss cheese knowledge doesn't workIn the traditional model, kids move onto the next grade even if they only understand 70% of the material. That creates holes in knowledge and those holes lead to failure later. Alpha on the other hand, enforces mastery. Students must get over 90% before they move on.* “A” students can still be behindAlpha has seen students with 4.0 GPAs at other schools, who are actually two or three years behind in core subjects. The old system rewards compliance, not mastery. One girl had a 740 on the SAT. She went back to third grade math, fixed the foundation, and scored a 790.* Catching up takes less time than you thinkA student who is three years behind can often catch up in 60 hours. One subject, one grade level, done in 20 to 30 hours. It's not magic. It's just focus and a system that works.* Every kid can be top 10%Research shows that with a tutor and mastery-based learning, average students can outperform 90% of their peers. Alpha believes 95% of eighth graders in America could be top 10% performers with the right system.* IQ doesn't limit outcomes anymoreIn the old model, your performance was tied to your IQ. At Alpha, it's tied to your effort. That shift makes achievement a decision, not a destiny.* AI unlocks personalized learningAlpha uses generative AI to build custom lessons based on each kid's interests and knowledge gaps. They've even taught World War I through Taylor Swift metaphors. That's not a joke. It's real.Why It MattersAlpha isn't just a different school, it's a different category.This isn't an experiment. It's a product. Built with intention. Measured by results. Scaled with clarity.They're opening new campuses. They're launching specialty models like the Texas Sports Academy for D1-bound athletes. They're not slowing down.We need more conversations about this. More public awareness. More experiments. Because what we're doing isn't working. Not for kids, not for parents, not for teachers.Alpha feels like the opposite of what we've accepted as normal.And maybe that's what we need most.— What do you think about Alpha School?

“Use AI to augment people, not replace them.” “Windshield time is 30% of a tech's day—let's turn it into sales prep.” “Proposals should translate specs into homeowner value—comfort, savings, and choices.” In this episode, recorded live from the NCI Summit 2025 in Round Rock, TX, Bill and Eric sit down with Winston Chi, co-founder of NOSO Labs, to explore how AI can augment (not replace) HVAC technicians. Winston shares his path from a Google-backed, AI-driven startup in food wholesale to building tools for the trades, inspired by ride-alongs and family ties to hands-on work. His core thesis: most techs aren't well trained in sales or structured communication, yet that's precisely what turns field data into homeowner decisions. The goal is to streamline processes and eliminate friction, allowing techs to communicate clearly, follow up reliably, and close deals ethically. NOSO's mobile-first app tackles three pain points:  (1) windshield time becomes prep time via short audio job briefs (history, likely issues, “don't forget the maintenance plan” cues);  (2) on-site conversations (or quick self-notes) are recorded and auto-structured into clear summaries and proposals—with visuals instead of math walls—plus rebate and tax credit logic that stays current as programs change; and  (3) follow-ups are auto-scheduled and teed up as texts or calls so opportunities don't leak.  A service manager dashboard displays follow-up activity, and there are native integrations (e.g., ServiceTitan and Housecall Pro).  Winston also previews their massive manuals brain—~15 million HVAC/water-heater manuals searchable by photo/nameplate—so techs can look up specs fast. Early users span from San Diego to New Jersey; NOSO offers a short trial, then annual contracts.

We're joined by Jack Schwager—author of the legendary Market Wizards series and co-founder of FundSeeder—along with his partner and fellow co-founder & CEO, Emanuel Balarie. Jack shares what it really takes to be considered for a Market Wizards book: not one formula, but a mix of standout performance, disciplined risk, and an almost obsessive commitment to process and adaptation. Along the way, we dig into why survival so often hinges on position sizing and pre-planned exits, whether strategies like trend following can still hold up today, and the paradox of how fundamental convictions can actually work against risk management. Emanuel then explains how FundSeeder discovers talented but undiscovered traders worldwide, using analytics to measure performance and the FundSeeder Rise accelerator (now part of RQSI) to help top performers make the leap from trading their own accounts to managing outside capital. Think of it as a “farm system” for the next generation of fund managers. Few will ultimately make the cut, but every great manager starts somewhere—and if you've been honing your craft and building a real track record, this episode might spark the thought: why not you?

'For the sake of what am I doing this?' is the question that animates this week's conversation. For the sake of fitting in? Of having feelings that I want to have? For the sake of serving? Of bringing the unique gifts I have to offer? For the sake of doing the big jobs, the ones that make a difference over the long term - such as pursuing love, justice, peace? Rather than pursuing quick wins that shrink our ambitions, might we find courage to take on impossible jobs and measure our lives not by immediate results but by unwavering dedication to the particular gifts that each of us has to bring? This week's conversation is hosted, as always, by Lizzie Winn and Justin Wise of Thirdspace. Episode Overview 00:00 Introduction and Welcome 04:14 Introducing Parker Palmer and this week's Source 08:52 The Concept of Faithfulness vs. Effectiveness 15:42 The Challenge of Complex Issues in Life 22:33 Finding Fulfillment Beyond Short-Term Goals Here's our source for this week: Faithfulness and Effectiveness Take on big jobs worth doing, jobs like the spread of love, peace, and justice. That means refusing to be seduced by our cultural obsession with being effective as measured by short-term results. … Our heroes take on impossible jobs and stay with them for the long haul because they live by a standard that supersedes effectiveness. The name of that standard is "faithfulness" - faithfulness to your gifts, to the needs of the world, and to offering your gifs to whatever needs are within your reach. The tighter we cling to the norm of effectiveness, the smaller the tasks we'll take on, because they are the only ones that get short-term results. Public education is a tragic example. We no longer care about educating children - a big job that's never done. We care only about getting kids to pass tests with measurable results, whether or not those tests measure what matters. In the process, we're crushing the spirits of a lot of good teachers and vulnerable kids: there are millions of kids in this country who long to be treasured, not measured. Care about being effective, of course. But care even more about being faithful, as countless teachers do - faithful to your calling and to the true needs of those entrusted to your care. You won't get the big jobs done in your lifetime. But if, at the end of the road, you can say, "I was faithful", you can check out with a sense of satisfaction.

Leif Nilsson, CEO & Director of Surge Copper (TSX.V:SURG – OTCQX:SRGXF), joins me for a comprehensive update covering ongoing field activities, 3 types of drilling, and various derisking work initiatives and development work streams all building towards their updated Resource Estimate and Pre-Feasibility Study (PFS), at their flagship copper-molybdenum-silver-gold Berg Project in British Columbia.   We start off reviewing the resource size and different metals contributions as well as the key economic metrics from the Preliminary Economic Assessment (PEA) that was released in June 2023. The updated Mineral Resource Estimate includes combined Measured & Indicated resource of 1.0 billion tonnes grading 0.23% copper, 0.03% molybdenum, 4.6 g/t silver, and 0.02 g/t gold, containing 5.1 billion pounds of copper, 633 million pounds of molybdenum, 150 million ounces of silver, and 744 thousand ounces of gold, plus an additional 0.5 billion tonnes of material in the Inferred category.  Leif reviewed some of the results from their substantial metallurgical testing program, where a bulk concentrate has been successfully separated into a copper concentrate containing the precious metals and a high-value molybdenum concentrate.   Next we shifted over to the 3 different types of drilling that have been ongoing or are still underway at the Berg Project. Leif highlights that there has a been a fair bit of infill drilling completed over the last 2 years, including the recent 1,500 meter 5-hole program from this summer's program, where more ounces will be moving from the inferred category into the measured and indicated category when it gets updated along with the coming PFS. In addition to this infill and definition drilling, there has been a fair bit of geo-technical drilling to characterize ground conditions at proposed infrastructure areas of the project footprint, including the first-ever uphill-angle drilling at Berg. Lastly there in ongoing ARD drilling using an underground drill, testing the outer margins of Berg mineralization to evaluate acid rock drainage potential within the conceptual pit's waste rock zone.   Additional workstreams remain active across the site, including geophysical surveys, environmental baseline studies, and logistical field preparations such as pad construction and line cutting. The Berg camp is currently a hub of coordinated technical activity, with drill contractors, field geologists, environmental and geotechnical engineers, helicopter crew, line cutters, pad builders, geophysical crews, and camp support staff all contributing to the program. Collectively, these efforts are generating the critical datasets required to support robust design parameters and reduce risk ahead of the upcoming pre-feasibility study.   Wrapping up we discussed a number of factors from what the permitting process will look like for EA readiness, the value in the strategic partner they have in African Rainbow Minerals Limited (“ARM”) assisting the Project both financially and technically, and an overall sense of how the size and scale of the Berg stacks up to other large copper development assets in Canada.     If you have any follow-up questions for Leif regarding Surge Copper, then please email them to me at Shad@kereport.com.   In full disclosure, Shad is a shareholder of Surge Copper at the time of this recording, and may choose to buy or sell shares at any time.   Click here to follow the latest news from Surge Copper

Think your pediatrician has all the breastfeeding answers? The truth is, most don't and that's not a knock on them. It's a reflection of the limited lactation training in pediatric residency. That's why I sat down with Dr. Lauren Hughes, founder of Bloom Pediatrics and a double threat: pediatrician and IBCLC. Together, we unpack the myths, the mental load, and the real deal about breastfeeding support that parents deserve but don't always get in those early days. We talk about: Why pediatricians often give confusing (or just plain wrong) advice around lactation How the term “nipple confusion” creates shame instead of support and what's really going on with flow preference How pumping, pacifiers, and supplementation can all fit into a successful feeding planWhy protecting a parent's mental health is just as important as protecting their milk supply To connect with Dr. Lauren Hughes follow her on Instagram @bloomdcp and check out all her resources at https://www.drlaurenhughes.com/ We'd like to know who is listening!
