THE POWER OF PODCASTING IS BUILDING COMMUNITY When it comes to building community, there is nothing more powerful than your podcast. We often talk that people do business with those they know, like and trust. It's all about building community and rapport. (See my next workshop at www.PodcastTalentCoach.com/workshop.) BUILDING COMMUNITY I was on the radio one afternoon and suddenly developed a case of the hiccups. It happened while the mic was open and I was on the air. There was not much I could do about it at that point. I said, "If this keeps up, this is going to be a very long show." Two days later I was a hockey practice with my son. Two moms came up to me and said, "When you got the hiccups the other day on the radio... that was the funniest thing we ever heard." Being human and sharing our authentic self on the podcast is how we build friendships. When your audience listens to you episode after episode, they get to know you and really building community. WHY PODCASTING Podcasts and audio in general are a very personal medium. People are usually listening to you with headphones. When you are in their earbuds, you are having a very personal, one-on-one conversation. Only they can hear you. If you say something on your show that makes your listener laugh, people will wonder what they are laughing about because nobody else can hear you. It is that kind of personal connection that starts building community. Video doesn't have that power. What I see on video you see. Nothing left to the imagination. We also "perform" on video. It is a little more difficult to be ourselves. It simply isn't natural. With your podcast, we are in a room alone talking intimately to people we cannot see. We aren't worried about what we look like. It is just a personal conversation building relationships. YOUR FUNNEL As you're building community with your listeners, you can get them started down your funnel. Being your authentic self on your podcast build the rapport. Your audience begins to trust you. When you then offer your free resource or make a call to action, your audience is more likely to act upon that request. Your podcast is a powerful way to grow your email list when you're using the show for building community. JEANETTE SHOREY Let me show you how it works in real life.

Despite being a National Board Certified teacher with a background in Early Childhood, I spent the first 7 years of parenting thinking I was alone and terrible at parenting. It has become my mission to never let another parent feel this way. Much like many of you, I was never told there were more than 5 sensory systems, and I was for sure never told about the effects of the sensory systems on behavior and navigating life.  I've dedicated my life's work to sensory processing, intense emotions and embracing kids that don't "Fit". I have made it my mission to learn as much as I possibly can, and in turn share as much information with others. My book CALM THE CHAOS: A Failproof Roadmap for Parenting Even the Most Challenging Kids is a revolutionary guide for parents of kids that struggle with big emotions, power struggles, or challenging behaviors.”Links:https://lemonlimeadventures.com/https://calmthechaosbook.com/?utm_source=lla&utm_medium=menu

As a holistic nutritionist, as well as a health and wellness coach, Heather Wolcott understands concerns about all-or-nothing lifestyles and dietary changes. Instead, Heather believes in promoting a well-rounded lifestyle — and understanding that nothing is forever. On this episode of Back Talk Doc, Dr. Sanjiv Lakhia and his guest, functional health coach Heather Wolcott, talk about nutrition and its effect on health, wellness, and even pain. Much of their discussion focuses around food elimination diets.Heather understands that the term “elimination diet” can be daunting for some people. But, she says, this form of lifestyle change is really just a tool to identify food sensitivities and intolerances that can cause brain fog, joint pain, rashes, anxiety, bloating, and fatigue. As with all things in wellness and nutrition, the key is balance. Even elimination dieting doesn't have to last forever, says Heather. For some people, it may only last a couple of weeks. Everyone is different, and no two paths to health are the same. But Dr. Lakhia and Heather have both observed that certain foods seem to cause more problems than others. Tune in to learn how you might be able to improve your lifestyle by simply cutting certain foods.

It was one of those days that has proven I am doing exactly what I'm supposed to, where I'm supposed to, surrounded by the most amazing staff and students. We were able to create an environment where all our intensive needs students were accepted and successfully together to listen to an incredible story of friendship and acceptance for a full hour. We even got to share the story with our mainstream classes thanks to the power of technology. Inclusion matters. Everyone go out and support the amazing Lisa Wentzell, Scotty and Spillway. They have left a long-lasting impression on us and are the absolute sweetest.”  38:14 – Lisa, Scott and Heidi share some resources that have been helpful for them.     Quotes   “The kids just really take to Scotty and that's the whole point.

As much as we wanted to tell Scotty's story, we also wanted to shine a light on those organizations and let other families who might be in a similar position know that there is support out there, there are ways to do all these amazing activities no matter what your child's ability may be.” – Scott Wentzell   “I think the most important thing that we can do as educators is to teach children how important it is to include everybody, to make sure everybody belongs, to make sure you have empathy and you understand what other people are going through. I think as educators and us being able to go share this book with so many people and touching those lives of the children when they're young just makes for better human beings.” – Heidi Bullen     Links:   Listen to Karl Stand's episode on The PR Maven Podcast to hear more about Sugarloaf    Claudia Diller: https://www.claudiadiller.com/index.htm   Central Maine Power: https://www.cmpco.com/   Equip for Living Foundation: https://www.equipforliving.org/   Maine Adaptive Sports and Recreation: https://www.maineadaptive.org/   Special Olympics: https://www.specialolympics.org/   Best Buddies Maine: https://www.bestbuddies.org/maine/   Riding to the Top Therapeutic Riding Center: https://www.ridingtothetop.org/   Pine Tree Camp: https://pinetreesociety.org/camp-home/pinetreecamp/   Portland Wheelers: https://portlandwheelers.org/   Special Surfers: https://www.specialsurfer.org/   The Woodshed at Kennebec Cabin Company: https://thewoodshedmaine.com/   The Studio: https://thestudioportland.com/     About the guests:      Lisa and Scott Wentzell moved to Maine full-time in 1993 when they both took jobs at Sugarloaf.

[20:11] Phil Culcasi "The most difficult part, especially in the new world that we're living in, is getting kids to try the problems before we have the discussion."

There's little worse than being told what you have to do, when you have to do it, and how. And especially when kids are involved, they're pretty good at digging in their heels and refusing. Ask any parent or teacher!   But we're still telling kids what they have to learn, how they have to learn it, and when. We're doing a disservice to them and, frankly, to the teachers who have to follow the prescribed curriculum.   Thank goodness teachers like Tanya King exist. Teachers who are using data and proven strategies to break the mold and truly get students excited about learning. Tanya, an award-winning 6th grade teacher in Washington state, champions the idea of letting go of control and letting students lead their own learning.    And what she's doing works! With kids regularly making two school years' of progress while in her care, they're no longer missing school or checking out mentally because they're bored or uninspired. She takes inspiration to the next level.   Listen in to find out how Tanya is doing it differently! About Tanya King: Tanya King, also known as Mrs. KB, is a 6th-grade teacher in the Edmonds School District. She is in her 22nd year of teaching, holds a BA in Elementary Ed, Special Education K-12, a Masters in Integrating Technology, and is National Board Certified. It is her mission to empower students to become lifelong learners and instill within them a belief they can reach any goal he/she sets for him/herself. By teaching students to believe in themselves and take ownership of their learning, her students know they can tackle any task. Students come to school because they have to; Mrs. KB has created a learner-driven class and kids come because they want to! Her mottos? Be the Captain of your Own Destiny!

We need to be authentic in what we do. If you can take a stance of staying curious- you will succeed.  About Linda Linda Rhyne is the owner of Linda Rhyne Consulting, a company focused on helping teachers and leaders connect research to practice in a safe & supportive environment.
