Almost nobody does the same for the last — and it's costing them more than they think.In this episode, Sylvia Garibaldi breaks down why the end of a case isn't the end of the relationship. She covers why referrals quietly leak business even when clients love you, how to build natural moments for past clients to come back, how to layer in services your clients already need, and how to turn a closed file into your best source of new business.You'll walk away with a way to spot where your practice is losing returning clients, a framework for adding services that fit your existing client base, and a shift from constantly chasing new clients to getting more out of the relationships you already have.

Good afternoon, I'm _ with today's episode of EZ News. Tai-Ex opening  The Tai-Ex opened down 185 points this morning from yesterday's close, at 46,833, on turnover of 11.8 billion NT.

Presidential Order removes top trade representative from office  The Office of the President has issued a Presidential Order formally remove the government's top trade negotiator from office. The move comes after Premier Cho Jung-tai suspended (停職) Yang Jen-ni on Monday. An investigation (調查) found Yang had bullied her late deputy, Yen Huai-shing, at work. Yen died in March at the age of 53, shortly after resigning from her job as the deputy chief of the Office of Trade Negotiations. A Cabinet report said Yang created a difficult workplace for Yen. Yang has repeatedly denied doing anything wrong. She is threatening to take legal action, saying the case has hurt her reputation (名譽). Philippines extends 14-day visa-free entry for Taiwanese travelers The Philippines has extended (延長) its 14-day visa-free entry program for Taiwan passport holders (護照持有人) until June 30, 2027. The Manila Economic and Cultural Office says the move gives Taiwan passport holders the same special treatment (待遇) they received last year. The office says the extension follows the Philippine government's order to give equal visa-free benefits (好處 / 優惠) to Taiwan. That is because Philippine passport holders can also travel to Taiwan without a visa. The Philippines first allowed Taiwan travelers to enter visa-free for up to 14 days on July 1, 2025. The program was originally set to end on June 30 of this year. Qatar declares 'positive progress' in indirect US-Iran talks Qatar's Foreign Ministry says there has been "positive progress" in indirect (間接的) talks between the United States and Iran in Doha. Mediators (調停人 / 調解人) have been moving between the two sides to discuss issues linked to a memorandum of understanding. US President Donald Trump says denuclearisation is "moving along well." But Iran's Deputy Foreign Minister Kazem Gharibabadi says official talks have not started yet, and working groups are still being formed. The two sides seem to disagree on more than the main issues. They also disagree on whether important topics have even been discussed. Mitch Mccann reports from New York. Ivory Coast floods kill 59 Floods in Ivory Coast have killed at least 59 people this year, according to a government spokesperson. The announcement came after a Cabinet meeting, where officials discussed the high number of deaths. On Monday, heavy rain caused floods and landslides (土石流 / 山崩) in the capitals of Ghana and Ivory Coast. At least 24 people died. The government urged people to follow safety rules and evacuate (疏散 / 撤離) high-risk areas. The World Meteorological Organization says Africa is one of the parts of the world most at risk from extreme weather. But Africa produces only a small share of the world's greenhouse gas emissions (排放). Rising number of whales spotted off Brazil A conservation (保育) group says humpback whales are now seen more often off Rio de Janeiro. It says their numbers are recovering after years of commercial whaling in the past. The Humpback Whale Project says the population (族群數量) has grown from about 2,000 to 35,000 in 40 years. In 1982, the International Whaling Commission ordered a pause in commercial whaling. That pause began three years later. Between June and November, humpback whales move through Brazilian waters. Their return is helping tourism. Some companies now offer whale-watching trips. That was the I.C.R.T. EZ News, I'm _. -- Hosting provided by SoundOn

Mediators involved in the US-Iran peace negotiations say both sides have agreed to a new 60-day roadmap toward a final deal.

Modern wars are supposed to end with victory, defeat, or peace. But what if that entire idea is outdated? In this episode of The Valley Current®, host Jack Russo examines two wars, two mediators, and two uneasy truces through the lens of game theory and geopolitical strategy. Why do some conflicts drag on despite overwhelming force, endless diplomacy, and public promises of resolution? From Iran's long-game survival strategy to the grinding realities of Ukraine, Jack explores a controversial argument gaining traction among strategists: modern conflict may be governed less by politics and more by cold mathematical equilibrium. If today's ceasefires are not endings but carefully managed stalemates, are world leaders solving crises or simply learning to live with them?

Was die Aussenministerinnen und -minister der Mitgliedstaaten des Europarates beschlossen haben, wirkt zunächst unspektakulär. Doch die «Deklaration von Chişinău» könnte die europäische Migrationspolitik verändern und menschenrechtliche Standards im Umgang mit Zuwanderung relativieren. Weitere Themen: Die Affäre um Andrii Jermak erschüttert die Ukraine: Der einstige Vertraute von Präsident Selenski muss weitere zwei Monate in Haft bleiben. Der Korruptionsverdacht wirft Fragen auf und belastet auch den Präsidenten. Der Ton wird rauer, in der Politik wie im Alltag. Konflikte landen oft vor Gericht.

Most of us have been trained to see the body in silos: diagnose the problem, treat the symptom, move on. But what if that model is missing the bigger picture?In this episode of The Ready State Podcast, Dr. Jeffrey Bland – widely recognized as the father of functional medicine – joins Juliet and Kelly Starrett to unpack a more complete, systems-based approach to health. From a simple (and surprisingly accessible) blood test that can reveal your inflammatory status, to the real role of inflammation as both a healing response and a hidden driver of chronic disease, this conversation challenges everything you thought you knew about “being healthy.”Dr. Bland also shares the deeply personal story that reshaped his entire career and led him to question conventional medicine's focus on downstream symptoms instead of root causes.You'll walk away understanding why everyday choices – like sugar intake, sleep, stress, and even your sense of self-agency – play a far bigger role in longevity than most people realize. Because at the end of the day, health is something you actively create.What You'll Learn in This EpisodeWhy chronic inflammation is both a healing response and a hidden driver of diseaseHow a standard blood test (CBC) can reveal your body's inflammatory stateThe difference between treating symptoms vs. addressing root causes (upstream vs. downstream health)Why your body is a system – and not a set of isolated problems to fixHow everyday habits like sugar intake, stress, and sleep quietly accelerate agingKey Highlights: (0:00) Intro & Teaser Clips(0:35) Introducing Dr. Jeffrey Bland, Father of Functional Medicine(3:11) Dr. Bland Joins the Show / Earth Day Connection(3:50) How Dr. Bland's Career Began in 1970(7:33) What's Most Urgent for People to Understand About Health Today(9:13) Systems Thinking vs. Siloed Medicine(12:43) A Seismic Life Event That Changed Everything(15:19) Finding Purpose After Tragedy — The Birth of a Mission(17:35) Origins of the Term "Functional Medicine"(19:03) Functional Medicine in The Lancet — 1874(31:15) Understanding Good vs. Chronic Inflammation(38:30) The Ibuprofen Epidemic in Youth Athletes(39:59) The Functional Medicine Model: Antecedents, Triggers & Mediators(42:47) Big Bold Health & Testing for Inflammaging(43:33) The CBC with Differential — A $6 Test Everyone Already Has(45:08) The SIRI Index — Calculating Your Inflammatory Status(46:25) Immune Cells Renew Every 90–120 Days(56:03) The 850-Person Clinical Trial on Food & Immune Health(56:56) Tartary Buckwheat — A 3,500-Year-Old Immune Superfood(1:02:57) The Healthcare System Isn't Working — A Seismic Change Is Coming(1:08:13) Rapid Fire: Blue Zones & Eating a Rainbow of Polyphenols(1:09:47) The #1 Lever for Aging Well — Starting With How You See Yourself(1:10:56) Where to Find Dr. Jeff Bland & Closing ThoughtsHuge thanks to our sponsors, Kreatures of Habit, LMNT, and Momentous.

Ella Al-Shamahi talks to women in Latvia and the UK whose work as mediators is about trying to find calm and co-operation in conflict.Evija Kļave is a certified mediator and sociologist. She's also an associate professor teaching mediation at masters level at Turiba University (a business school) and sits of the Commission of Certification and Attestation of Mediators which regulates mediators in Latvia as well as running her own private practice.Romina Kamran is an accredited family and children mediator in the UK and member of the Family Mediation Council. She also heads the National Family Mediation training academy. Her own experience of divorce negotiations was tough, and she works to make decisions around separation ones that both parties can be comfortable with.
