Welcome back to the podcast! Today, we're diving into *Us: Getting Past You and Me to Build a More Loving Relationship* by Terrence Real. This book has left a deep impact on all three of us, Amanda, Laura, and Kendra, and we're excited to share key insights on how to foster deeper connections in relationships. 1. The Three Selves in Relationships Terrence Real introduces the concepts of the "Wounded Child," "Adaptive Child," and "Wise Adult" within us. Each part can impact our interactions, especially in times of stress. For example, when stress triggers the Adaptive Child, we might revert to defensive, perfectionistic, or rigid responses, limiting our ability to connect. 2. Moving Toward the Wise Adult The Wise Adult is the part of us capable of emotional regulation, grounded in the present moment, and focused on the “us” in relationships rather than just "me versus you." Practicing "relational mindfulness," as Real describes it, helps us move from reactionary behavior to thoughtful responses that prioritize the relationship. 3. Relational Mindfulness and Power Dynamics Real's approach encourages moving from a "power-over" to a "power-with" perspective. Relational mindfulness is about becoming aware of our own impulses and prioritizing the relationship ecosystem over individual needs. This doesn't mean neglecting personal needs but rather not letting those needs dominate interactions. 4. Relational Heroism Real's wife, Belinda, coined the term "relational heroism" for moments when, instead of defaulting to old habits, we choose connection and insight. This shift from automatic, defensive reactions to thoughtful, relational actions requires self-awareness and discipline. 5. Self-Responsibility and Maturity Maturity in relationships involves taking full responsibility for our actions and emotional triggers. This means acknowledging when we're operating from an adaptive, defensive place rather than our wise, grounded self. Understanding our reactions and managing triggers is essential for healthier connections. 6. Interpersonal Neurobiology Real touches on the science of how our central nervous system and relationships are deeply intertwined. Our early life experiences shape how we perceive intimacy and connection in adult relationships. Relationships are meant to be a source of co-regulation, enhancing our physical and emotional well-being. 7. The Importance of Connection Real discusses “Social Baseline Theory,” which emphasizes the evolutionary benefits of social connections. These connections help us conserve energy, regulate emotions, and mitigate risk. This need for connection is evident in research on loneliness and isolation, underscoring the importance of close, supportive relationships. 8. Understanding Subjective Reality Real emphasizes that subjective experience is often more important than objective facts. Accepting your partner's perception of reality can improve understanding and reduce conflict, shifting from a “me versus you” mentality to an “us” mindset. 9. The Framework of Connection True intimacy is built through awareness of each other's needs, emotions, and triggers. Individuality has its place, but lasting relationships thrive on mutual understanding, shared values, and a focus on connection over competition. Additional Resources and Final Thoughts As we continue our journey through this book, we invite you to explore Real's work, available in his books, online resources, and YouTube videos.

Steve Martin visited the Crop Doctors' Podcast studio in Stoneville to visit with Tom and Jason about a subject that is close to the front of the minds of everyone involved in production agriculture…the economic situation.  Topics range from a recap of 2024 to an explanation for carryover stocks to some slight positives as we think about the crop calendar turning to 2025.    Catch this episode and discover more at our website.  

Nonviolent Communication supports reframing how we express ourselves, hear others, and resolve conflict by bringing our observations, feelings, needs, and requests to our consciousness. It's pragmatic and straightforward, challenging our deeply held practices of judging, labeling, criticizing, and comparing. With practice, this tool helps us transform blame and judgment within ourselves into mutual awareness of human needs.

Love Over Fear Part 4

Stacy Benge is an ECCN favorite.  She is a frequent presenter at our events and we enjoy having her on the podcast from time to time.  She's the author of “The Whole Child Alphabet: How Children Actually Develop Literacy” – linked in the show notes.  She is passionate about whole-child development and shares her knowledge readily with practical, engaging, and fun content.  Stacy has a master of science degree in Human Development, over a decade of experience in the classroom, and another twenty years of consulting, training, and research in early childhood spaces.   Our conversation today focuses on physical development as a foundation for literacy development! Stacy is going to share with us just how important it is to allow children to engage in free movement and play to develop the necessary physical skills for literacy. We will touch on topics such as the long-term consequences of restricting physical movement in early childhood and the need for early childhood educators to understand and communicate the value of physical development to parents and administrators. Through the conversation today, we will learn that trusting children's intuitive need for movement is key to supporting their overall development. Stacy's focus on whole child development just makes sense when you think about how God designed little bodies to grow. In our quest to help children reach their full potential, we sometimes skip to the things that we can control, right?  Stacy always reminds me that the simple things matter – sometimes they matter the most! Crawling, climbing, spinning, running, leaning, reaching, grasping…all of these simple things that happen when children are playing are actually the foundation of literacy skills. When we curate environments that allow and encourage movement in children, we're actually helping them become better readers and writers in the future.   Additional Resources:  The Whole Child Alphabet  Stacy's website, Instagram, and Facebook  Child-Centered Learning: A Discussion of Emergent Curriculum (a course on our website!)

Originally uploaded September 3, re-edited September 26th. Chris Holman welcomes back Teri Sand, SHRM-CP, PHR, CBSP, CRP, Business Services Manager, Capital Area Michigan Works!, Lansing, MI, but serving Ingham Eaton, and Clinton Counties THEME: Teri discusses the influx of jobs moving away from degree requirements and toward skill requirements and Capital Area Michigan Works!'s role in connecting job seekers to these positions. ● According to the Society for Human Resource Management (SHRM), one in every 7 jobs in the country were filled using skill-based hiring last year. ● This approach opens up the workforce to a diverse range of capabilities and perspectives by removing a requirement that poses a barrier to many candidates who are not able to complete a degree. ● Additionally, according to Workforce Strategies, Inc. (WSI), corporations who implement skill-based requirements for careers are likely to see an increase in efficiency due to a better alignment between workforce needs and properly skilled employees. ● The shift toward skill-based hiring emphasizes the value of hands-on experiences and demonstrated abilities which increases accessibility for job seekers. ● Capital Area Michigan Works! offers several services and supports multiple initiatives that aid job seekers in connecting with skill based positions. ○ CAMW! has opportunities available to provide tuition scholarships through the Workforce Innovation and Opportunity Act to individuals in need of skill enhancement. ■ Opportunities under the WIOA Act include apprenticeship programs, which cover on-the-job training and classroom instruction with a full-time wage and benefits. ○ CAMW! provides personalized career counseling, skills assessments and the opportunity to speak with career advisors about resume writing, job search strategies and more. ○ CAMW! holds weekly training programs and skill development workshops at the Lansing AJC and collaborates with local businesses and educational institutions to offer unique development opportunities. ● CAMW! actively engages with local employers to stay informed about employment trends and in-demand skill requirements, which allows us to learn what skills employers in our region are in highest need of and help jobseekers develop those skills. ○ CAMW! hosts frequent Employer of the Day events with local businesses to showcase available positions in our region and provide an easily accessible networking opportunity for job seekers. ● To view more of CAMW!'s job search services, visit camw.org/career-seekers/job-search-resources or follow CAMW! on social media to receive current updates on upcoming networking events, workshops and popular job postings. Teri, feel free to expand and add additional information or thoughts. ● According to Michigan Government data, advanced manufacturing, computer systems, healthcare skills and trades expertise, like HVAC services, are in high demand across the state. ○ In the capital area, medical assistance is in the highest demand. ... ● Job seekers who are looking for skill requirement positions should actively network through job and resource fairs, social media and applying consistently to job postings. ... » Visit MBN website: www.michiganbusinessnetwork.com/ » Subscribe to MBN's YouTube: www.youtube.com/channel/UCqNX… » Like MBN: www.facebook.com/mibiznetwork » Follow MBN: twitter.com/MIBizNetwork/ » MBN Instagram: www.instagram.com/mibiznetwork/

Jim and Ray talk to Dr. Euan Graham of the Australian Strategic Policy Institute about how Malaysia's positive relations with Beijing--despite ongoing tensions in the South China Sea--may be attributed to its deep economic ties with China. In particular, Malaysia's Prime Minister, Anwar Ibrahim, has taken a friendly stance towards China and downplayed security concerns, even as China continues to press its maritime claims. They discuss Malaysia's approach to geopolitics as it is about to assume the rotating chair of ASEAN, with which Beijing has been slow-rolling South China Sea Code of Conduct negotiations for decades--a circumstance that has grated on leaders in the Philippines who have sought stronger ASEAN support. For this reason, ASEAN's centrality in managing security issues is increasingly in question.Malaysian leaders see their approach as being pragmatic and flexible, while they see the Philippine approach as being unnecessarily confrontational. In "There I was...", Jim tells the story of his meeting with Anwar's daughter and the U.S.'s efforts to secure Anwar's release from jail two decades ago.

St. Paul Asks the Church of Corinth: Are You Conscious of Living in Such a Way that You Know You Are Moving Toward Another World . . . the Kingdom of God in Heaven? St. Paul wrote the letter to the Church in Corinth 2000 years ago. He wrote to the people, and he may have written it to us in today's world. While Christians do not deny Jesus' Resurrection, we often act in a way of indifference. Many Christians take the Lord's Resurrection for granted. The point Paul makes is important to today's Church as well. We who believe that Christ died and has risen; we need to take the back part of the statement seriously once again. Paul targets not our belief in the resurrection, but the way the Church is living! Note what Paul says! If our hope in Jesus is simply for today, then we are a pitiful people. Why? Because we will live in a way where Jesus is merely a memory. Hear more within the Homily! What Does the Other Side of Death Look Like? We must recognize that death is not the end! If we do, it begs the question: What does the other side of death look like? Whatever it looks like, if we have access to it at all, it is only by what God has done through Jesus Christ. For St. Paul, saying Jesus died for us, is the easy part! Thousands saw Jesus die on Good Friday. Death is a fact of how we all live. If that is all we have …a knowledge that Jesus died for us … we have nothing! We have a story that ends in a grave. If our hope is in a dead man … than we have no hope. It is vital to include the second half of the statement. Christ has risen! To say that He has risen … means that He has still risen and is alive! He is active! Jesus is active not simply for today. He is active to bring this world to completion that God desired for it from the beginning. This world, and therefore, our lives are going someplace. This what the people of Corinth were missing! Hear more within the Homily! Christ's Resurrection was for each of us! God is moving life to a place that will not pass away! The people of Corinth forgot about this. They viewed death with pain and sorrow. But they did not look at the bigger picture and what God intends for all of us! St Paul asks the Church, are you conscious of living in such a way that you know you are moving toward another world . . . the Kingdom of God in Heaven? Listen to this Meditation Media. Listen to what St. Paul asks the Church! Are You Conscious of Living in Such a Way that You Know You Are Moving Toward Another World . . . the Kingdom of God in Heaven? -------------------------------- Image: Saint Paul Writing His Epistles: French Artist: Valentin de Boulogne: 1600s -------------------------------- Gospel: Luke: 8: 1-3 First Reading: 1 COR: 15: 12-20

This week, we search for a better professional development model in education. We begin by examining the outdated approaches and underscore the importance of respecting self-directed and active learning. The conversation emphasizes the need to capture the wisdom of teachers and provide them with choices in their professional development. It also highlights the challenges of implementing change and the role of coaches in supporting teachers. The use of technology, such as video recordings and asynchronous dialogue, is seen as a valuable tool for professional development. The conversation concludes with the idea that better-educating educators is essential for better educating students.

You are listening to our weekday Summer Podcast series where we are using this summer as a RESET — an opportunity for us to return to what matters most! This week, we are exploring being "engaged in community." Today's reading centers around 1 Corinthians 12:12-14. Jesus calls us not just to Himself, but to each other. In our divided world, that is pretty revolutionary if you think about it. God wants us moving toward others, growing in love, and reflecting His image together. As parts of Christ's body, we reflect the integrity of His image and influence of His love. The church is designed by God to be the conduit through which His love is experienced and expressed among us. It's in that community that we find our common identity and foundation for how we relate to one another. For more information, check out portcity.church/summer!

In this parasha, we read "in the wilderness of Sinai." We were taken into the desert. But ... what about when God allows the desert to close in on us?

Commentary by Dr. Candice Silversides and Dr. Ashok Krishnaswami

Mint Miller is the creator and host of the BetterMint podcast. Mint's podcast is meant to help others by letting her experience be their survival guide because in her stories and in her healing, she believes that others will recognize their own.  As a divorced, single mom of two young girls, Mint has felt stuck in her career for the past 20 years that massively triggers her anxiety. Compounded with the stress of going through a divorce, the combination has caused that anxiety to become debilitating. It wasn't until doing recent trauma healing work that she realized much of her anxiety is a trauma response to past experiences from childhood. She finally used what she learned in her healing journey and began to set limits and boundaries that changed the narrative of her life and allowed her to step into who she really is and the person she knows she was meant to be. Mint feels that her practice of setting limits and boundaries has made such a profound positive impact on her life that she wants others to learn this practice and experience the same positivity and balance in theirs. She works with successful “go-to” women by coaching them through her “3 Yes Boundary Method” to help them identify what they value most in their lives, so they can say YES to what is most important to them and have the confidence to say no to what does not align. This approach also helps women understand their own value and that their worth can be driven by happiness and purpose, not just by performance or the opinion of other people. Mint resides in the Boston area with her two little girls and their new golden retriever puppy. Michele Maguire and I talk about everything from getting unstuck in careers that don't serve for us, spirit guides, boundaries and trauma healing. Trauma healing was a major focus of our conversation and a journey that Michele has been on for a while. She realized that she wasn't just an anxious person. There was unhealed trauma behind her anxiety and it was affecting so many of the choices she was making in her life from who she chose to marry, what career she was in, poor boundaries, and how she parented. Therapy and doing the work has helped Michele gain clarity and take control of her life. She quoted a guest on her upcoming podcast (Better Mint) by saying "what we don't change we choose." What is happening in your life that you want to change, but haven't? Whatever it is, there is always an opportunity to see how our past is defining and creating our current reality, and making the choice for change. Enjoy the episode friends.

As the 2024 Iowa legislative session nears adjournment for the year, progress has been made on several high-profile, pro-taxpayer bills. ITR Live is here with an update on several pieces of legislation that are on track to be enacted in the legislature's closing days. Income Tax Changes The recent discussions on income tax changes have outlined significant adjustments towards a simpler and fairer tax system. The proposal includes an acceleration of the flat tax rate to a lower 3.8% flat tax by 2025. Property Tax Changes The ongoing efforts in property tax reform highlight the need for simplification and clarity in the tax system. The goal is to make property taxes more understandable and fair for all stakeholders. Despite the complexities involved in restructuring property taxes, there is a emphasis on streamlining the process to ensure transparency and accessibility to taxpayers. Universal Basic Income The recent legislation on universal basic income (UBI) has garnered attention for its potential impact on social welfare programs. The bill prohibits local governments from implementing UBI programs, citing concerns about traditional welfare systems and wealth redistribution schemes. The State Senate recently passed this bill which is now awaiting the Governor's signature. Regulatory Reform The emphasis on regulatory reform addresses the necessity of streamlining regulatory processes to enhance efficiency and responsiveness. By identifying opportunities for regulatory improvements, policymakers aim to create a more conducive business environment and address potential challenges in the regulatory landscape. The ongoing discussions on regulatory reform underscore the importance of adapting to changing economic dynamics and fostering innovation while ensuring compliance with regulatory standards. Boards and Commissions The proposed plan to combine and streamline boards and commissions reflects a strategic approach towards governance efficiency. By consolidating various boards and commissions, the state aims to enhance coordination, reduce redundancies, and optimize resources. This initiative signifies a broader effort to improve decision-making processes and align regulatory oversight for better governance outcomes.

Going for goals can be, well, disappointing. Trying to get something done might give you feelings of failure when you don't get it done. Are you a goal setter or do you wing it?

In this episode, we're talking about moving TOWARD the best version of ourselves! We dive into the nitty-gritty of taking steps that really matter, choosing paths that light us up, and the magic of having a vision of our finish line. It's about turning the tables on being the person who starts but never finishes, to becoming a woman of follow-through, deeply committed to the visions that matter most. We talk about the power of focusing on the joy of completion rather than getting stuck in the planning phase, and the power of having a deeply meaningful vision to propel us. Ultimately, this episode will show you why living each day with the question “What am I moving toward?” will help guide you toward a bright and purposeful life with God–a life of joy, peace, and purpose.

#Londinium90AD: GAIUS & GERMAN debate the possibility of the American Empire moving toward a military strongman like Gaius Marius 157- 86 BCE.  Michael Vlahos. Friends of History Debating Society. @Michalis_Vlahos 1695 AD

— Holotropic Breathwork is based on the belief that each of us is guided by our own intrinsic wisdom, and that the opportunity for healing past traumas of the physical and/or emotional body or opportunities for opening a new doorway to creative flow lies within us - always available - as we become more aware of our natural ability to awaken to our authentic selves and our highest potential. Journeying in this expanded state, our psyche allows select biographical, transpersonal or mythological/spiritual material from our internal landscape to float to the surface of our conscious mind. As we feel safely supported, we are more likely to give ourselves the space and permission to work with and integrate this material for deeper understanding. The term ‘holotropic' means “moving toward wholeness.” Valeria interviews Yulia Meshoyrer  — She is a Russian-born distinguished Grof-certified Holotropic Breathwork facilitator dedicated to the transformative technique developed by Stan and Christina Grof.  Her extensive qualifications include an MA degree in General Psychology from Russia and an MA in Transpersonal Psychology from Sofia University.
