Sidney Snapdragon gets nervous easily, but his friends Bert Bumblebee and Sawyer and Summer Snapdragon help Sidney feel more comfortable. Hello everyone! We hope you enjoyed our new stories this week. Now, welcome to Favorite Friday! Sometimes we like to listen to our favorites again. Please enjoy “Sensitive Snapdragons,” and we'll be back with a new story on Monday! Narrator: Male Story Begins: 3:58 Sensitive Snapdragons Excerpt: Summer thought every morning was a beautiful morning. When it was sunny, she enjoyed the light and the warmth. When it was rainy, she enjoyed the refreshing water to drink, and when it was windy, Summer enjoyed the feel of the air as it circled her leaves and blossoms. The little yellow snapdragon always said the sun made her feel like dancing. The only time she didn't think mornings were beautiful was in the wintertime… and that was only because she was asleep in the ground! “It sure is a beautiful morning,” Sawyer replied, still smiling. “Say, I wonder if our friend Bert Bumblebee will visit us today,” Sawyer continued. “Bert usually visits us on sunny days, especially if it's not too windy.” Today's Meditation: Imagine you are a twinkling star, receiving and sending energy through the universe in today’s meditation.

Dragon has an epic idea to hold a game event for Ahway Island! How will it come together? Narrator: Female Story Begins: 3:33 Dragon's Epic Idea Excerpt: Dragon nodded. It sounded like a fun thing to watch and possibly to participate in. But these Olympic Games weren't being held on Ahway Island, and they probably were for humans only, so there would be no way for the creatures on Ahway Island to watch or participate. Unless…. Dragon had a thought. It was more than a thought, really. It was an idea… an epic idea, in fact. They could have their own games competition on Ahway Island, and creatures from all over the island could compete in events that reflect the skills they have practiced for a very long time. Anyone who did not want to compete could be a spectator and enjoy watching the action. Today's Meditation: Relax your whole body from head to toe in this meditation.

In this episode, you'll set up a simple 3-step follow-up system, so fewer families ghost you after a tour, and you can do it in one nap time. Whether you run a daycare center or home childcare program, tour follow-up is one of the easiest ways to improve your enrollment rate — if you do it consistently. This system takes out the guesswork so every lead gets the personal, professional follow-up they deserve (without fancy tech or CRMs). What You'll Walk Away With: A ready-to-use message template you can send same-day after a tour A reminder system to re-engage families 2–3 days later A simple tracking method to stay organized and stop losing leads

Where have I been? Life, Cousin. Life got in the way. A lot of things sidetracked me, and even though I was keeping the feed for this show active, I still had several moments of “Yeah! Gonna get back to it soon!” alongside an equal number of “why bother?” moments. I’ve also been working on a different podcast project with Mike Messner, who you might remember from a couple of Gordon Lightfoot episodes we did here. I talk about it during the episode, but you can check it out here. Mike convinced me that there was still more to say; in addition he wanted to help me say it. In addition, I wanted to move the show a little closer to its original educational roots. There’s more about that during the episode, too. So, bigger picture: Mike is going to take on some of the hosting duties, and I’m going to be doing a mix of new shows and a re-work of old shows. We have roughly the next 20 or so episodes mapped out, and while Mike will be writing and producing his own stuff, I’ll be reviewing scripts and dealing with final production, plus I’ll be dealing with the show notes (the stuff you read here) for the time being. Have a listen, get The Rest Of The StoryTM, and let’s re-light this candle!

Motherhood changes everything: your priorities, your energy, your routines, and especially your work schedule. As a health coach, I used to think I had my days planned down to the minute. Then I had a baby and realized life laughs at your routines.

I'll discuss: The constant juggle of client calls, naps, and rest (& why it's okay to admit it's hard) How I restructured my business to protect my energy and family time The mindset shift that helped me stop feeling so guilty about work & rest What my real-life wellness routines look like with a toddler in tow Why you can't pour into others (or your business) if you're running on empty --- Show Notes: Equip Protein Powder - Use code IPW!

When Ronald the Roller rushes through his work, his friends help him remember that going slow and steady builds the strongest sidewalks.
In 2010, software engineer Natalie Gordon was pregnant– and fed up with the overwhelming baby aisles in big box stores. So she quit her computer job to code the registry she wished existed. No pink-and-blue giraffes. No allegiance to a single store. Just a universal list that let friends give the real help that new parents need—from strollers to diaper services to dog-walking.Natalie coded the first lines of Babylist during her son's nap time. She managed customer support, pitched bloggers from coffee shops, and learned growth the hard way—first through affiliates, then with a pivotal Pinterest bet, and finally by taking on her own inventory (and all the headaches that come with it). Along the way she wrestled with hiring, firing, fundraising, and the identity shift from founder to CEO. Today, Babylist is one of the most trusted parenting platforms in the U.S., with a retail arm, editorial content, and a program for providing breast pumps. This is a masterclass in living a problem–and building a solution. You'll learn:How to spot a customer pain point and design an MVP around itThe power of slow viralityHow to use a small seed round without losing controlThe painful path from affiliate revenue to first-party e-commerceStumbles with hiring – and firing– as a first-time CEOHow paid growth works on visual platforms like PinterestHow “controlling your destiny” justifies a hard shift in business modelHow coaching and feedback helps you evolve from founder to leaderTimestamps:05:32 - Learning to solve hard problems at Amazon -08:28 - Sabbatical in Latin America: Natalie's first (failed) business and what it taught her17:50 - A meltdown in a superstore → the Babylist “aha” moment19:40 - Designing a universal registry, dog-walking included24:42 - Blitzing the mommy blogs, a “pregnant hacker” post on Hacker News30:01 - Why $140/month revenue felt like a victory39:18 - Going solo at an Accelerator, and the agony of early hiring and firing49:29 - From “slowly viral” to real scale, and how Pinterest helped58:09 - Affiliate links to in-house inventory → piles of bassinets in the office 1:01:57 - COVID's unexpected windfall, the health wedge (breast pumps & beyond)This episode was produced by Kerry Thompson with music by Ramtin Arablouei.

We'll start with the bad news, Lizz is out for today's podcast. But the good news is Kate from Naptime Kitchen is BACK to take her place for the day! She's been living that book tour life but managed to find the time to join Kelly to talk about all the adventures she's had since becoming a published author. Then, it's time to rundown Last Three Transactions. Kate had to break down and buy a new Apple watch since her last one broke and realized how much she misses having it on her wrist. She's also been transacting to get ready for her daughter's birthday and running by a local bakery to grab her favorite go-to quiche for a quick meal at home. Kelly is stocking up on pre-cut parchment paper that has been a game changer in her kitchen. Plus, another Facebook Marketplace haul and a major order from Athleta. In Industry News, it turns out AI is NOT good at everything - specifically designing cars. Our dreams of flying cars might be on hold for a little longer as Hyundai announced it is halting his air taxi department. Finally, in Ditch the Drive-Thru how to elevate your tuna melt and grilled cheese sandwich.
This week on Between Us Moms, we dive into a rollercoaster of emotions! We discuss Travis Kelce crying while proposing to Taylor Swift and why, as moms, we can't get enough of their heartwarming love story. Plus, why skipping nap time is a total no-go ever again —Katie's done with that chaos and shares the story that led her to this conclusion. We also share our raw thoughts on Charlie Kirk and our heartfelt prayers for the future of our children and this country. Cardi B reveals why she wants more kids. We break down the hilarious reason—and honestly, we kind of agree! Lastly, we reveal the tell-tale signs you're heading for divorce (spoiler: it's more subtle and surprising than you think). Tune in for a dramatic, emotional, and surprisingly funny episode covering love, life, and the hard truths we all face.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
I was reading a year or two ago, I can't even remember where now, but a sentence from the article has solidified itself in my memory. It said something along the lines of "Most people on social media follow someone one step ahead of them, or one financial bracket above them. Any more than that and it's overwhelming, under that and it isn't inspiring." It struck me because it named rather specifically why social media can breed discontentment. If we are only looking at the lives of people a little bit ahead of us, then we are always going to be tempted to spend above than we can afford. Maybe that's taking trips that the financial strain makes us miserable afterward. Sink a deposit into a house that consumes our whole household income. Maybe it's as simple as buying organizing systems that is totally out of reach. Kate Strickler is the creator behind Naptime Kitchen. For this book, she was just named a New York Times best-selling author! Congratulations! Her new book, "I Just Wish I had a Bigger Kitchen," tackles why we feel discontent when most of us have everything we need. -What is the first time you started noticing you were believing lies about your life? -How do you usually identify that you are believing a lie? -Do you think naming the lie helps remove its power over us? -Why is the chapter "I just wish I had more friends" resonating most with readers?

The unofficial third host of The Carpool Podcast is BACK! Kate from Naptime Kitchen joins Kelly and Lizz today to talk about something that is right up their alley - "Take Them a Meal March." Kate is encouraging people throughout the month to show someone you love them through food. Whether it's a top tier meal or a cup of coffee and a muffin, she'll share how a simple gesture can go a long way to help a family member, friend or neighbor. This is a great way to show someone you see them and you care. But it's not all about the food this episode, although there is a lot of food talk. Kelly kicks it off with a big reveal of her modeling past! Why did she give it up? Before they leave, they also get the big scoop on Kate's new car.

It's Chit Chat Wednesday on The JTrain Podcast, and Jared is joined by the razor-sharp, brutally funny Rosebud Baker! Fresh off the release of her new Netflix special The Motherlode, Rosebud gives us the inside scoop on what it was like filming half her special while eight months pregnant and the other half while sleep-deprived and covered in baby spit-up.Jared and Rosebud take a hilarious deep dive into the rollercoaster of motherhood, marriage, and stand-up comedy, playing a game of "Peaks and Pits" to unpack everything from parenting in NYC to the subtle art of keeping a relationship spicy when your biggest turn-on is uninterrupted sleep. Rosebud also shares the surreal experience of being worshipped like a rockstar by her toddler—right before being judged by her nanny for prioritizing podcasting over nap time.The two swap takes on sobriety, why being the only sober person at a work party is a social experiment in patience, and their irrational (but very real) fears—like plane crashes, parenting fails, and the existential horror of running into an ex while holding a screaming child.Get ready for sharp observations, unfiltered laughs, and a much-needed reminder to stream The Motherlode early and often (because algorithms, people!). Don't miss this episode packed with Chit Chat chaos and top-tier parenting wisdom—aka “don't drop the baby, and don't drop the bit.”Want more JTRAIN?
