Preserving season can be incredibly rewarding, but when the garden is producing faster than you can keep up, it can also become overwhelming fast!Over the years, we've learned plenty of lessons the hard way about what makes harvest and food preservation season easier... and what makes it much harder than it needs to be.In this episode, we're sharing some of the biggest food preservation mistakes we've made and the practical habits that now help us manage the abundance without burning ourselves out.We'll talk about why you shouldn't wait until the produce piles up, how to choose the best preservation method for each food, preparing ahead for a preserving day, and why we always think about dinner before we start!We also discuss something that's easy to overlook: whether you're preserving food your family will actually eat and whether doing it yourself is truly saving you money.Whether you're putting up a few jars from the garden or preserving a year's worth of food, we hope these lessons make your harvest season a little easier.Check out the blog post for more information and any details mentioned: https://homesteadingfamily.com/tips-for-a-busy-preservation-day/Links Mentioned:- School of Traditional Skills Annual FREE Summit: Keep an eye out in future podcast episodes for a link to sign up for the free summit!

In today's episode, Brock Johnson breaks down eight mistakes that are quietly hurting your Instagram growth, even if you don't realize it's happening. He covers why deleting underperforming posts is a mistake, since bad posts can teach you just as much as your hits, and why chasing algorithm changes instead of studying your actual audience behavior keeps creators stuck. He also gets into inconsistency in posting and niche, the trap of mono-posting the same type, format, and style every time, and why hunting for hacks like hashtags and trending audio distracts from what actually moves the needle. Brock closes out with two mistakes that trip up even experienced creators: never reusing your best-performing content or reworking your flops, and misunderstanding what actually makes Stories work. He breaks down the three things Stories are built around, watch rate, tap backs, and replies, and walk through exactly which habits, like sharing feed posts to Stories or skipping engagement stickers, are working against you without you knowing it.

Episode Description: You are probably taking melatonin wrong and it is almost certainly not your fault. Most people take it like a sleeping pill every night, wake up groggy, and eventually need more and more to get the same effect. That is not a melatonin deficiency. That is melatonin being used for something it was never designed to do at a dose your body would never produce on its own. The amount of melatonin your brain actually releases at night is about 3 tenths of 1 milligram. Your gummy says 10. The research is humbling and the label may not even be accurate. Researchers tested 30 melatonin products off store shelves and found the real content ranged from 83% below the label to nearly five times above it. In roughly one out of four products they found serotonin, a compound that was not listed on the label at all. In this episode, you will learn: • Why melatonin is a timing hormone and not a sedative, what it is actually designed to do in the body, and why taking a giant dose expecting to be knocked unconscious was never how it works • Whether long term melatonin use shuts down your body's own production, why the answer is no, and what the real risks actually are • Why Dr. G never raises the dose when a patient says melatonin has stopped working, what he does instead, and the specific scenarios where melatonin is genuinely the right tool Plus the warning every parent needs to hear before giving melatonin to a child. Product reviews assess both brand transparency and product quality. If a company doesn't respond to our outreach, it doesn't automatically mean their product is low quality but it does mean they're failing their customers on transparency and communication. We reach out multiple times. No response isn't an oversight, it's a choice. And consumers deserve better.

In this episode of the Lead Up Podcast, host Mike Harbour challenges the familiar idea that people quit jobs and argues that, more often than we realize, they're responding to the leadership environment around them. Turnover may be the number that eventually gets an executive's attention, but it's often a lagging indicator. The conditions that lead a good employee to disengage, lose trust, or eventually leave can begin months—or even years—before a resignation ever hits your desk. Drawing from more than 30 years of his work with healthcare leaders, Mike shares eight critical leadership failures he continues to see across teams and organizations. More importantly, he challenges leaders to stop looking only at the metrics and start paying attention to the leadership behaviors that may be predicting where those metrics are headed. In this episode, Mike discusses: Why turnover should be viewed as a lagging indicator What leaders should be watching before engagement and retention begin to decline Why leadership isn't a “soft skill,” but an essential business skill How seemingly small leadership behaviors can quietly shape culture Why trust, accountability, growth, and communication matter to retention How urgency can sometimes create unintended leadership problems Why leaders need to examine the environment they're creating—not just the employees who leave A simple way to grade yourself, your leadership team, and your organization before the metrics tell you there's a problem As you listen, Mike challenges you to be honest about what's happening inside your organization and ask: If your best people left tomorrow, what would they say they were really leaving? If you're working to improve retention, engagement, culture, and organizational performance, this episode will help you look beyond the numbers and identify the leadership behaviors that may be influencing them long before they appear on your dashboard. If you found this episode valuable, please leave a 5-star review and share it with another leader.

A solo breakdown of one of the most debated topics in long-range shooting: leveling, or "truing," your rifle scope. The host walks through the difference between a scope that's level and a reticle that's true to the world, why even a few degrees of unnoticed cant can quietly wreck your elevation and wind dope past 300 yards, and the build process used when setting up rifles for clients, from plumb-bobbing the reticle to fitting bubble levels to a shooter's natural point of aim.

You know what? I thought the Prime Minister was right to rule out working with Opportunity, until that One News-Verian poll. Now, I think he might have made a mistake. I'm not 100 percent sure, but I'm starting to lean towards this being an error. If you didn't catch the poll, the screaming message from it was that nobody gets to govern unless they have Opportunity. The centre-right bloc has a combined total of 57 seats. That's not enough. You need 61-plus to govern. The centre-left, once you take out the ridiculous thing TVNZ does by counting six Māori Party seats, which is just unreasonable, probably has about 55 seats. Again, that's not enough. Opportunity has nine. Both sides of the political divide need Opportunity's seats to form a Government. Now, look, things are going to change. One poll does not mean that's what happens on November 7 and Opportunity will almost certainly come back from this. This is probably too high for them. But I think the message here is clear: this scenario is now a live possibility in a way it wasn't before, especially after the failed coup, which must almost certainly dent the chances of an outright centre-right victory. That poll will have scared National Party MPs for two reasons. First, the centre-right doesn't win in that poll. Second, Opportunity did not die after Chris Luxon ruled them out. In fact, they went up instead. What he would have hoped is that by ruling them out, they would fade away as a political force. Instead, they shot up to 8 percent. Now, look, Opportunity is a pretty radical left-wing party, okay? They sit more comfortably on the left. But the fact is, the policies they're spruiking, the ideas National will say no to, are also ideas Labour will say no to. Chris Hipkins knows that if he says to Opportunity, "Yep, absolutely fine. Let's roll out a universal basic income. Let's introduce a land tax. Let's lift the age of youth crime to 25," he'll only last one term in Government because that stuff is nutty. It's nuttier than anything the Jacinda Ardern Government did with the Greens. Because of that, because Labour will say no and National will say no, it neutralises Opportunity. Neither side is going to put up with their more radical ideas. Both sides will only agree to the more sensible proposals. Which means Opportunity possibly becomes a viable support partner for the centre-right as well. And that raises the question: has the Prime Minister made a mistake by ruling them out? And does he now need to row that back? LISTEN ABOVESee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Every hunter who's spent enough time in a stand knows this moment: the wind switches, the deer aren't moving right, something's off, but you've already invested the time. You climbed the tree, you sat through the cold, you've got two hours in already. So you stay. Not because staying is the right call, but because leaving feels like admitting you wasted the sit. That's the sunk cost fallacy showing up in real time, in a tree, with a bow or a rifle in your hands. And it's not the only bias working against you out there. Ego does the same thing from a different angle. You don't want to be the guy who moved and missed the shot, or the guy who backed out right before the buck showed up. So you push when you should reset, or you sit tight when you should be moving. I built a framework this season to cut through that noise, and it's simple. Before I commit to sitting tight, pushing forward, or backing out, I run through it. What does the wind and the animal's behavior actually tell me right now, not what I hoped they'd tell me an hour ago? What would I do if I hadn't already invested this much time? And am I making this call because it's right, or because I don't want to feel like I failed? That third question is the one that gets me. Ego doesn't announce itself. It just quietly convinces you that pushing is confidence when it's actually stubbornness. None of this replaces scouting or being prepared before you ever climb into the stand. Preparation is what gives you a filter to trust in the first place. But even with the best prep, you're going to hit moments where the hunt is on the line and your gut and your ego are pulling in different directions. Having a filter you trust, built before the pressure hits, is what separates a good decision from a costly one. This episode is about that filter, the biases working against it, and how to build one that actually holds up when it matters.

How can a boutique consultancy scale beyond founder-led growth without losing the culture that made it successful?Rob Ferrone is a product data and PLM strategy advisor who founded and led Quick Release, a specialist engineering consultancy focused on product data management and product data flow. In this episode, he explains how the firm grew through referrals before developing a structured, consultative approach to business development and expanding to more than 200 people across the UK, US, Europe and Australia.Rob discusses how technical consultants learned to contribute to sales by diagnosing customer issues, consequences and value rather than relying on conventional sales techniques. He also shares lessons from international expansion, including the importance of repeatable recruitment, cultural ambassadors, clear leadership responsibilities and greater employee autonomy. The conversation examines Quick Release's acquisition by ALTEN, the value of preparing for a sale before a buyer appears, and the operational foundations that can reduce acquisition risk.

今回のエピソードでは、Norikoがスペインのアリカンテへ旅行した経験を通して、学習中の言語を実際に使うことの大切さについて話しています。Norikoは約20年前にスペイン語を熱心に勉強していましたが、イギリスへ移住してからは英語学習を優先し、長い間スペイン語の勉強をしていませんでした。しかし、今年アリカンテへ旅行することが決まり、もう一度スペイン語の勉強を始めました。旅行中はレストランやカフェで積極的にスペイン語を使うことに挑戦しました。その中で注文の言い方を間違えることもありましたが、現地の人に訂正してもらいながら学ぶことで、強く記憶に残ったと話しています。また、教科書だけでは学べないリアルな言葉やアクセント、騒がしい環境での会話などを体験し、旅行は最高の言語学習の機会だと感じました。最後に、日本へ旅行する機会があれば、小さな日本語チャレンジを作り、失敗を恐れずに実際に日本語を使ってみてほしいと伝えています。

Joel McKelvey, VP of Product Marketing at Glean, shares why the enterprises winning with AI right now aren't the ones chasing the latest model—they're the ones who got their context layer right first. He explains why AI has moved from experimentation to company-wide production almost overnight, and why the biggest mistake enterprises are making is one they'll only recognize in hindsight. Key Takeaways Why the model you're running matters far less than the context you're feeding it How to think about AI ROI across three levels: individual, team, and organization What actually breaks employee trust in AI agents Why being model-agnostic is the best future-proof decision How fear of AI disappears quickly once employees get firsthand experience of a productivity win Guest Bio: Joel McKelvey is VP of Product Marketing at Glean, where he helps organizations turn AI initiatives into practical, metrics-driven business transformation. He brings more than 30 years of experience across engineering, marketing, and strategy, with deep expertise in AI, machine learning, analytics, and data architectures.

If relationships built your real estate business, what are you doing today to make sure those relationships still remember you when their next move happens? In this episode of the Real Estate Excellence Podcast, Tracy Hayes sits down with Tracy Frandsen. Tracy Frandsen is a Northeast Florida real estate professional with 20 years of experience navigating booming markets, the foreclosure crisis, changing technology, and the constant evolution of the real estate industry. Her career began in 2006 in Green Cove Springs and quickly put her in the middle of one of the most challenging periods in housing history, where she worked inside a Fannie Mae brokerage managing foreclosed properties, complicated transactions, distressed homeowners, renters, repairs, valuations, and investor offers. Over the years, Tracy built a business heavily driven by repeat clients and referrals while learning that relationships alone still require consistent nurturing. She shares how working alongside her daughter in law Holly expanded the business, allowed them to combine complementary strengths, and strengthened their marketing and social media presence. Tracy also explains why brokerage support, continuous education, collaboration with other agents, neighborhood farming, staying top of mind, adaptability, and strong negotiation skills remain essential regardless of how experienced an agent becomes.

Most communication problems aren't really about what happened. They're about what happens next. In this episode of Truth Be Told, Dave Thompson sits down with communication expert Alex Perry to explore why even well-intentioned people misunderstand each other — and what we can do differently. From difficult conversations and feedback to active listening, empathy, body language and leadership presence, Alex challenges some of the assumptions we've been taught about what “good communication” actually looks like. They explore why curiosity may be more valuable than certainty, why listening doesn't always mean fixing, how leaders can show empathy without lowering expectations, and why our desire to quickly reach an answer can prevent us from actually understanding the person in front of us. The conversation also tackles communication myths — including the often-cited 93/7 rule — and examines how the same principles apply across leadership, relationships, sales and investigative interviews. Because sometimes the most important question isn't, “What should I say next?” It's: “What am I missing?” Want to improve how you handle difficult conversations, workplace conflict, and high-stakes communication? Wicklander-Zulawski & Associates (WZ) provides evidence-based training for leaders, HR professionals, investigators, and organizations looking to strengthen communication, active listening, rapport, and decision-making. Explore WZ's training and resources to build practical skills for navigating the conversations that matter most.

Change is inevitable and, these days, seemingly constant. The responsibility to manage change effectively is a large one that can weigh heavily on the shoulders of a conscientious leader. There are many ways to get it right and many ways to get it wrong when it comes to guiding your team or organization through change. What I see too often is leaders announcing a new direction, initiative, or process without helping employees understand the larger context (what I call “the why behind the what”), or recognizing and honoring the impact the change will have on the people closest to the work. When leaders aren't intentional and strategic in leading change, employees can be left carrying confusion, frustration, and an ever-growing workload. Over time, the costs of poorly managed change can undermine trust and organizational integrity, resulting in anything from decreased morale to a mass exodus of high-performing employees. In this episode, I'm breaking down five common change-management mistakes that may be exhausting your team. I'll talk about the key and critical difference between communicating change and managing change, what leaders miss when they underestimate the frontline experience, and why resistance isn't necessarily a sign that employees are unwilling to adapt. Sometimes, what looks like resistance is actually a request for more information, more involvement, or more time to process what is being lost. I'll also share how leaders can create more thoughtful and sustainable change by communicating the bigger “why,” involving employees earlier, making space for questions and grief, and honestly assessing the team's capacity before introducing another initiative. If your organization is navigating ongoing change - or your employees seem increasingly disengaged, cynical, or depleted - this episode will help you lead the transition with greater clarity, empathy, and intention.

You banned social media. You set the rules. You thought the biggest danger was over. It isn't. Award-winning journalist Madonna King has spent more than a year speaking with hundreds of children, parents, teachers, psychologists and researchers. What she uncovered will change the way you think about every screen in your home. This conversation goes far beyond social media. From AI doing our kids' thinking for them to the quiet loss of patience, creativity and resilience, Madonna explains why the biggest risks are often the ones no one is talking about. Most importantly, she shares practical ways to reset your family's relationship with technology without constant battles. If you've ever wondered whether screens are changing your child, this episode will leave you seeing them differently. KEY POINTS Why banning social media doesn't solve the bigger problem. The hidden risks inside gaming platforms and AI. How AI is teaching children to stop thinking for themselves. Why instant gratification is reshaping behaviour, resilience and learning. Simple ways to reset screen habits without creating daily conflict. The small family rituals that build patience, connection and confidence. Why your own screen habits matter more than you think. The shocking amount of data already collected about the average teenager. QUOTE OF THE EPISODE "Parents really want their children to grow up kind, curious and clever. Yet we're risking that by allowing strangers and algorithms to shape who they become." — Madonna King RESOURCES MENTIONED Screen Wise: Take Back Control of Screen Time for Toddlers to Teens by Madonna King Happy Families Screen Smart Series ACTION STEPS FOR PARENTS Look beyond social media and review every screen your child uses. Choose one family habit that teaches patience, like cooking together, waiting before buying something or playing board games. Create regular screen-free family time where everyone puts their phone away. Replace some screen time with creative hobbies that slow life down. Take an honest look at your own screen habits. Your child is watching. Start conversations about AI instead of assuming your child knows how to use it safely. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Retirement tax planning isn't simply about following IRS rules or minimizing what you owe this year. Jeremy Keil answers three listener questions that demonstrate why focusing on one tax return at a time can lead retirees to miss opportunities to manage their taxes over the course of retirement. Jeremy breaks down two different five-year rules that can apply to Roth IRAs, including what happens when you complete a Roth conversion after having an existing Roth IRA for years. He then explains why taking only the required minimum distribution from an inherited IRA isn't automatically the best strategy under the 10-year rule, and how qualified charitable distributions may be available from inherited IRAs for eligible account owners.

In just 11 years, Aaron Murphy has replaced his and his wife's income with repeatable, long-term rental properties. No complicated strategy. No huge windfall of cash. He made serious mistakes on his first true investment property, but quickly developed a “foolproof” system that allowed him to scale to an impressive real estate portfolio and gave him a sustainable exit path out of his W-2 job. After getting tired of the “do this or don't get paid” mentality at his job, Aaron realized he needed another source of income. Stocks required too much upfront cash, homes in his city were too expensive, but what if he looked outside the city? He bought his first property with around $12,000 down, saved up more money, repeated it, made mistakes, succeeded, failed, and did it again, until he had a process that built wealth on repeat. Now, Aaron has an entire rental portfolio to rely on for income as he takes this interview from Portugal as part of a one-year trip around the world. It's only possible because he took the first step—buying just one property. In This Episode We Cover Aaron's repeatable BRRRR method that helped him scale to 75 rental units The biggest mistakes you can avoid on your first rental property (Aaron learned the hard way) One thing you always account for when analyzing a rental property (or it'll cost you thousands) Want a mentor? The “foolproof” system to finding the best ones in your area The secret to getting low offers accepted that's so simple, most investors skip over it And So Much More!

The number on your scale tells you almost nothing about your actual health. You can lose weight while becoming less healthy—or stay the same weight while dramatically improving your metabolism, reducing your risk of disease, and adding years to your life. In today's episode, I discuss: Why the scale can completely miss what's happening inside your body and the hidden health risks it can't measure The dangerous difference between muscle and visceral belly fat, and why one protects you while the other drives disease The five health markers I pay attention to instead of body weight—including one simple measurement you can do at home How insulin resistance develops years before diabetes and the early warning signs you can catch before it's too late The goal isn't simply to lose weight; it's to build a healthier metabolism. The healthiest body isn't always the lightest one—it's the one that's functioning the way it was designed to. Resources Mentioned: Want to dive deeper into why muscle is the key to longevity?
