In this bonus episode, host Dane Groeneveld sits down with producer, Dr. Alicia McCraw and colleague David Bumby for a practical, behind-the-scenes walkthrough of how to identify the values that guide any team. Rather than brainstorming lofty ideals, David demonstrates a process listeners can use themselves: revealing the values already at work, pressure-testing them, translating them into observable behaviors, and integrating them into daily decision-making. Through real examples from the podcast, moments of tension, and candid reflection, the team uncovers how values quietly influence decisions long before they're documented. They explore how curiosity shapes guest selection, how psychological safety drives production choices, and why doubling down on the human has become a recurring theme in their work.Whether you're defining values for the first time or clarifying what your team already believes, this episode gives you the questions, steps, and mindset to do it with intention.This episode includes visuals. Images referenced during the conversation: our Mural board, value ranking, and River MoonShine are shared in Dane Groeneveld's LinkedIn post. The link is included in the show notes.

Ist Scrum nur etwas für Vollzeit-Teams? Ein klares Nein! Doch wenn Teammitglieder nur 50 % bis 80 % ihrer Zeit zur Verfügung haben, gerät der klassische Scrum-Rhythmus oft ins Stolpern – besonders bei synchronen Events wie dem Sprintwechsel. In dieser Folge von Agile Unfiltered widmet sich Marc einer Hörerfrage von Micha: „Wie involviert man Teammitglieder, die beim Sprintwechsel nicht anwesend sind?“ Marc zeigt auf, warum Anwesenheit verhandelbar ist, aber Engagement und Transparenz nicht. Er liefert dir konkrete Strategien, Tools und Methoden, wie du Teilzeitkräfte nicht nur „duldest“, sondern als vollwertige Mitglieder integrierst – ohne dass Wissensinseln entstehen oder das Sprintziel gefährdet wird. Das erwartet dich in dieser Folge: Das Teilzeit-Dilemma: Warum Teilzeit im Scrum Team nichts mit „Multitasking in 5 Projekten“ zu tun hat und warum wir uns darauf einstellen müssen. Synchron vs. Asynchron: Kreative Lösungen für Reviews und Retrospektiven, wenn der Kalender „Nein“ sagt (Stichwort: Loom & Mural). Das Buddy-System: Wie ein rotierender Partner im Team dafür sorgt, dass keine Infos verloren gehen. Erwartungsmanagement: Was das Team von der Teilzeitkraft erwarten darf – und umgekehrt. Warum Proaktivität hier die wichtigste Währung ist. Dokumentation statt Flurfunk: Warum „haben wir kurz besprochen“ in hybriden Setups tödlich ist. Zitate aus der Folge: "So eine Teilzeitkraft soll halt nicht nur geduldet sein, es ist ja am Ende trotzdem Teil vom Team." "Anwesenheit ist verhandelbar [...] Aber Engagement und Transparenz sollte eben nicht verhandelbar sein." "Wissensinseln sind immer ein Riesenproblem. Und je mehr wir in Silos arbeiten [...] umso höher ist die Gefahr, dass Probleme auftreten."

Top Stories for December 2nd Publish Date: December 2nd PRE-ROLL: BUFORD HOLIDAY FESTIVAL From the BG AD Group Studio Welcome to the Gwinnett Daily Post Podcast. Today is Tuesday, December 2nd and Happy Birthday to Nelly Furtado I’m Peyton Spurlock and here are your top stories presented by KIA Mall of Georgia. Coca-Cola Caravan coming to Lanier Islands Resort Suwanee’s new ‘Bookshelf’: A mural that lets you judge a wall by its cover Gwinnett native Brandon Brigman changes life through CrossFit All of this and more is coming up on the Gwinnett Daily Post podcast, and if you are looking for community news, we encourage you to listen daily and subscribe! Break 1: Kia Mall of Georgia - Downtown Lawrenceville Holiday STORY 1: Coca-Cola Caravan coming to Lanier Islands Resort The Coca-Cola Holiday Caravan is rolling back into Lanier Islands Resort on Saturday, Dec. 13, lighting up the night alongside the resort’s Magical Nights of Lights. Picture it: a glowing 18-wheeler, mile after mile of twinkling displays, and all the holiday vibes you can handle. From 5 to 8:30 p.m., the Caravan will park outside Game Changer, where you can snap pics with Santa, sample new Coke flavors, and browse holiday merch. Beyond the Caravan, there’s Game Changer—an indoor playground with arcade games, axe throwing, and festive cocktails—and License to Chill Snow Island, featuring snow tubing, skating, and carnival rides. Magical Nights of Lights runs nightly through Jan. 4, with carload pricing starting at $35. Discounts are available for military, first responders, educators, and toy or food donors on select nights. For details, call 770-945-8787. STORY 2: Suwanee’s new ‘Bookshelf’: A mural that lets you judge a wall by its cover A bold new mural now greets visitors at Suwanee’s Town Center on Main, and it’s a stunner. Titled “Bookshelf,” the piece was created by renowned artist Pat Perry, whose jaw-dropping, photorealistic murals have popped up all over the globe. Back in early 2025, Suwanee put out a call for artists, and nearly 90 submissions poured in. Perry’s work stood out—his knack for blending realism with thoughtful, site-specific designs won over the Suwanee Public Arts Commission (with a little help from the Gwinnett Creativity Fund). Over two and a half weeks, Perry turned the walls outside the Suwanee branch of the Gwinnett Public Library into a vibrant tribute to storytelling. The mural’s placement—right by the pedestrian bridge—was no accident. It ties together the library, the park, and the new Town Center on Main. But here’s the cool part: “Bookshelf” isn’t just a mural. It’s a puzzle for book lovers. Perry didn’t paint books or readers; instead, he filled the piece with objects that hint at famous works of literature. A pearl for Steinbeck’s The Pearl. Chewing gum for To Kill a Mockingbird. Matches for McCarthy’s The Road. Over 20 literary Easter eggs are hidden in the mural, waiting for sharp-eyed readers to uncover them. It’s not just art—it’s a celebration of imagination, curiosity, and the stories that shape us. STORY 3: Gwinnett native Brandon Brigman changes life through CrossFit For Brandon Brigman, CrossFit isn’t just a workout—it’s his whole world. It’s where he transformed his body, met his wife, and found his calling. Back in 2010, Brandon, a former 270-pound offensive lineman from West Georgia, stumbled into NoExcuses CrossFit in Suwanee. He was bored of treadmills and marathon training, so he gave CrossFit a shot. Ten minutes into his first workout, he was wrecked. “I thought I was in shape—I’d just run a marathon. Nope.” Fast forward: he became a trainer, then the gym’s general manager, and in 2018, he bought the place. Now, NoExcuses is thriving, with 100 members, six employees, and a whole lot of heart. “It’s not just fitness,” Brandon says. “It’s accountability, community, and people who actually care if you show up.” We have opportunities for sponsors to get great engagement on these shows. Call 770.874.3200 for more info. We’ll be right back Break 2: Ingles Markets - Sugar Hill Holiday STORY 4: McClure High senior earns statewide recognition for leadership Jasmine Osorio-Antonio is already making waves—and she’s just getting started. A senior at McClure Health Science High in Duluth, Jasmine juggles more than most adults. Coding Club founder? Check. DECA leader? Yep. Junior Achievement honoree? Absolutely. In October, she was named one of Junior Achievement of Georgia’s Nineteen Under Nineteen, a recognition for students who are shaking things up with leadership and innovation. Her résumé is stacked: Horatio Alger Scholar, Alexander Hamilton Scholar, NCWIT Honorable Mention, and finalist in the Girls Who Code AI + Sustainability Challenge. Oh, and she’s in the top 10% of her class. But Jasmine’s not just about accolades. She’s hands-on. Her Coding Club, which she started with a teacher, gives students real-world experience—projects they can actually show off. And somehow, she still finds time to work three jobs: as a “FANgineer” at Georgia Tech games, a parking lot ambassador near Mercedes-Benz Stadium, and helping with her mom’s cleaning business. Her future? Computer science and business. STORY 5: Strickland says Georgia’s future ‘on the line’ in attorney general race State Sen. Brian Strickland is running for Georgia attorney general, and he’s got a lot to say about why. “I want my boys to grow up in the same Georgia I did,” he said. “We’ve got a good thing going here, but it’s a pivotal time. The wrong person in this seat could change everything.” Strickland, who’s been in the General Assembly since 2012, has a packed résumé: chair of the Senate Judiciary Committee, former floor leader for two governors, and now a candidate to replace Chris Carr. His campaign? Focused on public safety, defending state laws, and tackling new threats like AI-driven crime. But it’s not all politics. Strickland’s a dad of two young boys, one of whom is autistic. He wears a faded autism awareness bracelet daily, a reminder of the work still needed. His campaign is grounded in what he calls “common sense” values: supporting law enforcement, protecting families, and ensuring Georgia stays a place people want to call home. We’ll be right back. Break 3: Sugar Hill Ice Skating Rink STORY 6: GCPS sets new calendars, but religious holiday debate lingers Gwinnett County Public Schools just rolled out its calendars for the next two school years, and, well, not everyone’s thrilled. Board member Tarece Johnson-Morgan called it “disappointing” and “non-inclusive,” pointing out that the calendar still leans heavily on Christian holidays while leaving out major ones from other faiths, like Ramadan or Rosh Hashanah. The district says they surveyed families, and most prioritized longer breaks and fewer digital learning days over adding religious holidays. But Johnson-Morgan argues there’s room for a “Yes/And” approach—keeping the current structure while recognizing key non-Christian holidays. It’s a debate that’s not going away anytime soon in one of the nation’s most diverse districts. STORY 7: Gwinnett schools preparing to adopt cell phone ban policy Gwinnett parents, it’s time to weigh in: should cell phones be banned in schools? The school board is considering a new policy—Policy JCDAF—that would ban personal devices like phones, smartwatches, and tablets starting in the 2026-2027 school year. Exceptions? Only for students with medical or learning plans. This isn’t just a local idea. It’s tied to Georgia’s new Distraction-Free Education Act, which requires elementary and middle schools to ban phones by 2026. Gwinnett’s proposal goes further, extending restrictions to high schools. For younger students, the ban would last all day—class, recess, assemblies, everything. High schoolers? They’d get a little more freedom, with phones allowed during lunch. The district says the goal is to cut distractions and reduce bullying, citing studies showing phone bans can lower bullying by nearly 45%. Parents, students, and staff can share their thoughts by emailing myschoolboard@gcpsk12.org. We’ll have closing comments after this Break 4: GCPS Hiring Signoff – Thanks again for hanging out with us on today’s Gwinnett Daily Post Podcast.

If I had to start completely over with zero mural experience, zero clients, and zero momentum in 2026… what exactly would I do to rebuild my mural business back up to $50,000 in the first year?In this episode of the Artist Academy Podcast, I break down the exact steps I'd take—numbers included—to go from day-one beginner to a fully booked muralist with steady income and growing confidence. Whether you're brand new to murals or looking to reboot your art business, this is the roadmap I wish I had when I started. Let's talk numbers first. To make $50,000/year, here's what it actually looks like: $136/day if you worked all 365 days OR $200/day working 5 days a week Which equals $1,000/week — or just two $500 jobs per week Two small $500 projects each week is incredibly doable when you know where to look and how to market yourself. STEP 1: Start With $500 Jobs Your first goal is simple: book consistent $500 projects. These usually include: Kids' rooms Bathrooms Interior accent walls Small logos for businesses Window art Simple custom pieces Anything custom you can complete in about two days Why start here?Experienced muralists rarely want $500 jobs.These beginner-friendly projects help you build a portfolio, gain confidence, and learn to work efficiently. STEP 2: Raise Your Prices as Soon as You're Booked Out Once you have one month of $500 jobs lined up, you're done taking $500 jobs.At that point, $500 naturally becomes: $700… then $850… then $1,000… You don't need a new year, a new portfolio, or a special reason. You can raise your prices mid-year, mid-month, or even mid-week. Your schedule will tell you when it's time. How do you actually GET these jobs? NOW Marketing (focus on this first): Social media (Instagram, Facebook, LinkedIn depending on your area) Posting in local Facebook groups Sending DMs to local businesses Reaching out to interior designers Public art calls Thumbtack Pro (the fastest way to get ready-to-buy clients) LATER Marketing (you don't need this yet): Website & SEO Referrals Separate art accounts Fancy branding Business cards These things matter later—but beginners often hide behind them and slow themselves down. Feeling overwhelmed? Here's how to simplify it. NOW Strategy: Build a portfolio Say “yes” to most things Try out different styles Work with a variety of people Practice, gain speed, build confidence Network everywhere LATER Strategy: Niche down into your signature style Choose your ideal customer Create a targeted marketing plan Specialize and scale STEP 3: Shadow an Experienced Muralist Shadowing—even for a single day—is one of the fastest ways to shorten your learning curve. You'll learn: The tools and supplies they actually use How to scale artwork onto a wall Which brushes and rollers make the job easier How to paint efficiently How to handle real client interactions What a full mural workday actually looks like One day of shadowing can save you months of trial and error. Want Me to Mentor You Through This? My new coaching program begins January 1, designed specifically for artists who want to start or grow their mural business with clarity, confidence, and accountability.

En este episodio, conversamos con Ricardo Silva Romero sobre Mural, su libro más reciente: una obra que se mueve entre la memoria personal, la novela y el relato histórico para reconstruir, con profundidad y humanidad, uno de los episodios más estremecedores de la historia reciente de Colombia A través de su escritura, Ricardo Silva Romero logra lo que solo la buena ficción puede hacer: devolver la vida a quienes ya no están, iluminar los matices que suelen perderse en el ruido del pasado y recordarnos que la historia necesita ser contada una y otra vez para que el olvido no termine imponiéndose.En la conversación, exploramos cómo Mural reinterpreta la tragedia del Palacio de Justicia, cómo combina voces, memorias y silencios, y cómo el autor transforma los hechos en una narración que invita no solo a entender, sino a sentir. Hablamos también del poder de la literatura para sanar heridas colectivas, del deber de preservar la memoria y del desafío de narrar un país que aún intenta explicarse a sí mismo

Transcript:Es: En el barrio vibrante de La Boca, donde las casas se pintan con colores vivos y el eco del tango resuena en las calles, Cecilia soñaba con dejar su marca.En: In the vibrant neighborhood

Ever look back at your first mural and cringe just a little? In this episode of the Artist Academy Podcast, I'm taking you behind the scenes of my very first paid mural—the $350 job that had me spending three scorching days in the sun, a sketchy ladder, and a whole lot of “what was I thinking?” moments.I'll share what that project taught me about pricing, safety, and preparation—lessons I wish I'd known before climbing that ladder with the wrong paint and too much optimism. These early mistakes shaped how I run my mural business today, from choosing the right materials to confidently quoting big projects and staying safe while doing what I love. Whether you're just starting out or looking to fine-tune your process, this episode will help you skip the struggle and learn from my first-mural fiasco. Resources mentioned: Mural Supplies → artistacademy.co/supply Mural Pricing Guide → artistacademy.co/pricingguide $17 Audio Book → MuralMoney.com HEADS UP! I will be taking on a new small group of artists to coach more intimately with meetings every week starting January 1st. If you are interested, message me and I will put your name on a list to let you know as soon as it becomes available. You are perfect for this coaching if you have a few photos of your work and need guidance on bigger projects, what to say to customers, how to land jobs, or if you get stuck not knowing what to do—I'm on call.
