Jennifer says performance is finally on an upswing after several muted years, but owners are squeezed by costs on every front: consumer goods, labor, property insurance and especially health insurance, alongside persistent staffing gaps in a 24/7 business. She walks through the three technologies Curator has piloted and now runs across member hotels: overnight cleaning robots for corridors and public spaces, guest texting platforms, and AI voice agents that take basic calls off the front desk. The heart of the conversation is Curator's positioning as a "third way" between the big brands and rep/affiliation companies: an owner-centric, light-touch membership built on vetted vendor deals and cost savings, plus consumer marketing that drives direct bookings. Zach pushes on the distribution question, what it would take for a collection to deliver 10% or more of a property's bookings, and argues that AI search makes this the moment for collections as trusted sources for independents.

Chew on this: Property managers estimated 36% of their clients would switch to self-management if AI made it easier. Owners said 79% would ditch their PM if AI made it easier.Tracy Streich previewed those stats as part of the new AppFolio/NARPM research.

Episode Summary In this episode of the Solar Maverick Podcast, Benoy Thanjan speaks with Sachu Constantine, Executive Director of Vote Solar, about why state-level policy is becoming increasingly important to the future of solar. They discuss major industry challenges including interconnection delays, permitting, policy uncertainty, and rising electricity demand from AI, data centers, EVs, and electrification. Sachu also explains how solar plus storage can improve grid reliability and how emerging solutions such as plug-in or balcony solar could expand access to renters and apartment residents. Despite political and regulatory headwinds, Sachu remains optimistic about solar's future because of falling costs, improving technology, growing consumer demand, and the need for faster deployment of new electricity generation.

Despite being close neighbours, Australia and Papua New Guinea have only recently become formal allies through the Pukpuk Treaty. But what does this new alliance mean beyond government-to-government ties? In this episode of Lowy Institute Conversations, Dominic De Moura McCarthy, President and Founder of the Pacific-Australia Youth Association, and Sharon Bala Woruba, Environment and Sustainability Manager for PNG at Coca-Cola Europacific Partners, join the Institute's Sarah Thompson to discuss the future of the bilateral relationship.They discuss PNG's forthcoming NRL team, the Chiefs; what real economic opportunity for small businesses and grassroots communities looks like; the underused potential of diaspora communities in places like North Queensland; and why formal exchange and education programs matter at every stage of life.The conversation lands on a bigger question: what would it take for everyday Australians and Papua New Guineans to feel genuine ownership of this relationship, rather than watching it play out at the top? Dominic De Moura McCarthy and Sharon Bala Woruba were participants in the Australia–PNG Network's 2026 Emerging Leaders Dialogue. You can read the recommendations of the emerging leaders in a joint communiqué published by the Lowy Institute.

How do you know when it's time to leave a career you once loved? And what do you make of the quiet desire that keeps returning, no matter how long you put it off?Hannah Kissel built a successful sales career at LinkedIn, but after severe burnout, returning felt like “a betrayal of self.” She now runs an executive coaching business and is writing her first novel, following a desire that had stayed with her since adolescence.We explore what it means to listen to that persistent inner voice while facing the uncertainty of a different working life. Hannah also questions the assumption that following a calling means doing it full time: writing matters deeply to her, but so does helping people in groups.Those groups have also shaped her own transitions. From getting sober to becoming an entrepreneur, Hannah has sought out people who make a different way of living feel possible. Her approach begins with a simple question: Who is already living the change I want to make?If you're questioning a career that has served you well, or wondering how long you can keep postponing something important to you, this conversation is for you.LEARN MORE ABOUT HANNAH KISSELWebsite: http://www.hannahkissel.com/LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/hannahkissel/Free Career Confidence Course: https://www.hannahkissel.com/careerconfidenceHannah Hotline Podcast: https://www.hannahkissel.com/podcastCONNECT WITH BRADLEY WRIGHT Newsletter: https://bradleywrightphd.com/essaysLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/bradleywrightphd/Website: https://bradleywrightphd.com/

On this episode of Grilling JR, Jim Ross and Conrad Thompson look at what comes next for several familiar names. Could Ray Lewis's wrestling background lead him into RAF? Does Gable Steveson have the fire and personality to find his place? And, after a brutal Power Slap appearance causing emergency surgery will Jake Hager ever compete again? JR also weighs in on Aleister Black's frustration with his WWE return, shares his reaction to WWE Unreal, and considers whether the WWE–TNA partnership works for both companies. Plus, Jeff Jarrett's appearance at Arena México sparks a conversation about the venue's legacy, and whether calling a match there might still be in JR's future.

In this episode of My Back 40, I sit down with Graham Mann of Mannmade Cycles.Graham's story starts with a titanium hammer. From there, he turned an obsession with building things out of titanium into a life spent creating thoughtfully designed, high-performance bicycles for people who care about how their bike fits, rides, and is put together.RollingDale Cycles was founded in 2016 by Dale Marchand with a pretty simple idea: custom bikes should be about more than just having something unique. The rider should be part of the process. The fit, the details, the decisions that go into the build—all of it matters.Now Graham is carrying that philosophy forward under his own name with Mannmade Cycles. It's a new chapter, but the commitment to thoughtful design, craftsmanship, and building bikes around the rider remains.And there's some interesting stuff coming with that new chapter. Graham gives us a glimpse into something he's working on that could make truly custom bikes considerably more accessible to riders who might not have thought a custom frame was within reach. I'm not going to give it all away here, but I'm pretty excited to see where he takes it.Graham is one of those people who clearly loves what he does, and that comes through in this conversation. We talk titanium, custom bikes, the process of building something specifically for one rider, and what happens when you decide to take everything you've learned and build something of your own.Thanks for sticking around while I've been figuring some shit out.My Back 40 isn't going anywhere.I love you all.Mannmade Cycles – Proud sponsor of the My Back 40 Podcast.Level Ground Coffee Roasters – Save 15% on orders of $50 or more with promo code MB40.Dynamic Cyclist – Save 25% with promo code MB40.Redshift Sports – Save 15% with promo code MB40.Supporting these companies helps support the podcast.

Step into Episode 230 of On The Delo as Delo sits down with Tom King and Craig Miller to announce a new chapter for Arizona Liquor Industry Consultants. Tom is bringing more than 30 years of beverage-alcohol experience—from major suppliers and distributors to startups and celebrity-backed brands—into ALIC's Arizona-focused work alongside Craig and the established team.This conversation connects the dots between licensing, training, compliance, events, brand strategy, and the commercial realities facing bars, restaurants, hotels, and beverage companies. Tom and Craig unpack how Arizona's three-tier system affects operators, why staff education matters, what is changing across alcohol distribution, and how a clear beverage strategy can help an operation build stronger sales without losing sight of responsible service and compliance.Chapter Guide (Timestamps):(0:00 - 0:35) Pre-Roll and Getting Ready(0:36 - 3:02) Meet Tom King and His Start in Beverage Alcohol(3:03 - 6:52) Old-School Mill Avenue and Early Brand-Building Lessons(6:53 - 10:14) On-Premise vs. Off-Premise Pricing, Service, and Promotions(10:15 - 14:35) Diageo, Distribution, Startups, and Celebrity Brands(14:36 - 16:34) Reconnecting Through the WM Phoenix Open(16:35 - 20:37) ALIC's Roots and the Next Chapter with Tom(20:38 - 22:55) One-Stop Support, Membership, Training, and Security(22:56 - 26:28) Industry Headwinds, Distribution Shifts, and Consumer Trends(26:29 - 28:49) Arizona Liquor-Law Priorities and ID Rules(28:50 - 32:37) Practical Beverage Strategy for Bars and Restaurants(32:38 - 35:56) Why Celebrity Beverage Brands Win—or Miss(35:57 - 39:10) Rapid Fire: Music, Movies, Mornings, and Pizza(39:11 - 40:15) Risky Business, ALIC Resources, and Closing
In January of 2022, during one of Toronto's never-ending pandemic lockdowns, I launched Lean Out from the tiny kitchen of my 485-square-foot apartment. I had just left legacy media, somewhat loudly. I had been a current affairs radio producer at Canada's national public broadcaster, the CBC. And I was worried that journalists were getting some of the biggest stories of our age wrong. I was fed up with our incuriosity on a range of hot-button issues, from pandemic policy to race and gender. The newsrooms felt increasingly stifling. It had become more and more difficult to engage in debate during story meetings, to stray from established narratives, and to put alternative voices on the air.At the same time, I was hearing from a public that was increasingly furious with the press that was supposed to serve them. Time and time again, people would ask me: Why are you all ignoring the views and concerns of so many of our fellow citizens? What is going on with the media?This, at a time when a strong fourth estate had never been more important. The public square was nasty and polarized. I watched wave after wave of online pile-onsand cancellation campaigns. Whole newsrooms joined in, too, purging established journalists for the slightest of infractions. The range of acceptable opinions for polite society became breathtakingly narrow. In private, journalists told me they were terrified. I feared we were losing some of the pillars of Western liberal democracy — and fast.And me? I was bereft. Thinking and reading and writing and talking about ideas had been the great joy of my life. It had never occurred to me that that might be taken from me.So, I decided to take a stand for civil dialogue and for open debate. I decided that we needed to stop having candid conversations in private and start having them in public. Lean Out was an appeal for speaking freely.At the Lean Out Substack, we began publishing essays and op-eds and news roundups and written Q&A interviews, and hosting guest columnists. And on our first podcast, I posed some questions that I hoped to delve into on the program: Why is there now so much that we cannot say? Why are so many things off the table for discussion and debate? Why does all of this social justice talk feel so elitist? And why are so many of the people that progressives are supposedly fighting for just not that interested? Why are so many people tuning the media out?Five years on, we have some answers to these questions — and we've found them together. Our show has listeners in more than 150 countries and 7,000 cities worldwide. This summer, we hit a milestone of one million downloads. It's not bad for a niche Canadian current affairs podcast, largely focused on heterodox non-fiction books (and sometimes articles). Lean Out has published 256 episodes, featuring authors and journalists and academics from around the world and across the political spectrum. Our listeners, too, represent every political persuasion. We hear from Marxists, but we also hear from staunch conservatives — and, of course, from the politically homeless. Somehow, we've all managed to forge a little common ground.What is that common ground? I think it rests on the conviction that most people are reasonable. That they are generally thoughtful adults that are doing the best they can to chart a path through this turbulent time. This common ground rests on the conviction that what most people want to better understand the moment we are living through, in all its complexity. That most of us can disagree without disparaging. That most of us are open to hearing new perspectives, and, in fact, feel richer for having been exposed to them. And, crucially, that we all have the capacity to change our minds.This common ground we have built rests on a deep faith in our fellow citizens. And isn't that what democracy is all about ?This podcast has been the assignment of a lifetime, so it's been a difficult decision to bring this project to a close — though the Substack will continue offering plenty of written content. In the meantime, I want to say that I am so grateful to you, our subscribers, for supporting the podcast portion of Lean Out. Each and every week, I got to speak to some of the most interesting and original writers and thinkers in the world. It was a volatile but fascinating time, in the media and elsewhere, and I got to cover it, in real time, as it unfolded.In the process, some key themes for Lean Out emerged: pandemic policy, political polarization, the dire economic picture, particularly for our young people. A growing rage and a troubling censoriousness in our culture. The highs and lows of Canadian and American politics. The tensions between men and women. The crises facing modern men, including mental health, and the state of modern feminism, including our complicated relationship to the declining birth rate. Plus, the emergence of the woke left (which the American congresswoman Alexandria Ocasio Cortez herself has now characterized as “crazy”). And, more recently, the ascendance of the woke right, which I am increasingly concerned about ...You can read the whole post at https://tarahenley.substack.com/p/the-next-chapterYou can find Tara Henley on Twitter at @TaraRHenley, and on Substack at tarahenley.substack.com

What happens when the challenges you've spent years trying to overcome become the very experiences that shape who you're capable of becoming? In this episode of The Story Engine Podcast, I sit down with Tom LeNoble, a former executive at companies including MCI, Palm, Walmart.com, and Facebook, who has been given six months to live three separate times and has lived with metastatic cancer for the past fourteen years. Rather than allowing those diagnoses to define his life, Tom has built his philosophy around three powerful principles: risk, resilience, and reinvention. We dig into what it actually looks like to stop living in the past, stop waiting for a "do-over," and start using your past as evidence of what you're capable of. Tom shares how his childhood, health crises, and willingness to take enormous risks—including leaving a dream corporate position to join a then-little-known Facebook—shaped the way he now advises executives and professionals. We also explore the hidden problems beneath the problems people bring to coaching, the six forms of energy that can become imbalanced, why curiosity and psychological safety can accelerate change, and how "acting as if" can help you move toward a life that doesn't yet exist. This is a conversation about resilience, but more importantly, it's about what becomes possible when you decide that your past can inform your future without controlling it. Highlights (01:56) – Risk, resilience, and reinvention: Tom explains how two life-threatening illnesses forced him to rethink conventional approaches and develop the three principles that now guide his work with executives. (02:59) – Stop waiting for the "do-over": We explore why living in the past can consume the time, energy, and consciousness you need to actually create your future. (04:10) – The problem beneath the problem: Tom reveals why clients often arrive with one business question but leave with an entirely different answer—and how going one or two layers deeper can uncover what's really blocking them. (04:58) – Turn your past into evidence, not a ball and chain: Tom explains how previous experiences can either keep you stuck or become proof that you're capable of handling what comes next. (07:17) – The six forms of energy: We break down how time, physical vitality, relationships, money, support, and other forms of energy interact—and how depletion in one area can create problems everywhere else. (08:17) – Are you missing the butterfly?: Tom shares a powerful metaphor for how being mentally stuck in the last email, conversation, or upcoming meeting can cause us to miss the renewal and opportunities happening right in front of us. (08:55) – Stop searching for the story that makes you look good: We talk about how entrepreneurs and leaders can filter their own experiences through the wrong lens—and miss the stories and insights that would actually connect with their audience. (10:23) – Curiosity as a coaching superpower: Tom explains how watching behavior, facial expressions, and vocal inflection helps him identify what's really happening beneath someone's words and create a safe space for honest conversations. (11:57) – The investor call that was costing an executive his relationship: Tom shares a specific example of helping an executive recognize that the sacrifices he thought were necessary for business success were actually creating the same relationship problems he had experienced before. (13:57) – What changes when you're told you have six months to live: Tom describes the perspective shift that comes from facing death repeatedly—and why he became more interested in what he could do while living than in dwelling on the possibility of dying. (14:39) – Resilience is a muscle: Tom explains why resilience gets stronger through use and why looking forward, rather than wallowing in what happened, can fundamentally change how we experience adversity. (16:14) – The lifestyle that forced Tom to wake up: Tom gets specific about the years when he worked 12–14 hour days, partied afterward, neglected his health, and lived almost entirely for future outcomes. (18:34) – Growing up in "the shack": Tom takes us back to his childhood without hot water or a refrigerator and explains how realizing at age five that his life was different became an early catalyst for risk, resilience, and reinvention. (21:01) – The phone call that changed everything: Tom tells the story of being recruited by Facebook when it was still a little-known company, interviewing with a 19-year-old Mark Zuckerberg, and taking the enormous risk of leaving his dream job at Palm. (23:50) – Building a career while fighting for your health: Tom reveals what it was really like working at Facebook while dealing with a serious diagnosis—including being more concerned about where the bathroom was than whether he was in the right meeting room. (25:01) – My attempt to reflect Tom's story back to him: I take everything Tom has shared and connect the pieces—from his health struggles and relentless work ethic to his decision to fight forward and reinvent his life. (28:55) – Why your story can reveal possibilities you didn't see before: Tom explains why having someone accurately reflect your story back to you can help you see the person you're capable of becoming. (29:29) – The hidden power of writing your own story: Tom shares why writing his memoir was so cathartic and why every part of our past—even the parts we would rather hide—can be essential to understanding who we are today. (31:03) – Where to connect with Tom: Tom shares how you can learn more about his work, his books, and the Opening Pathways Collective.

What does hope look like for the United Methodist Church after years of disruption, decline, and change?In this episode of Pod Have Mercy, John and Matt sit down with Dr. Lovett H. Weems, one of the leading voices in church leadership and United Methodist life, for a wide-ranging conversation about where the church has been and where it might be headed next.Drawing from his newest book, "An Aura of Hope: United Methodism's Next Chapter in the United States," Dr. Weems discusses why hope is not dependent on favorable circumstances, what current trends and demographics reveal about the future of the church, and why congregations must begin by paying attention to "the people God has given us."The conversation explores the changing geography of Methodism, the importance of reaching beyond the walls of the church, what churches can learn from congregations that are successfully reaching new people, and why leadership is less about imposing a vision than helping God's people discern their next faithful step.They also discuss the future of the United Methodist Church following disaffiliation, the denomination's new regionalization model, church governance, and what it means for churches to serve not simply their members, but the common good of the communities around them.Dr. Lovett H. Weems is Distinguished Professor of Church Leadership Emeritus at Wesley Theological Seminary and senior consultant at the Lewis Center for Church Leadership, which he founded in 2003. Previously, he served for 18 years as president of Saint Paul School of Theology and spent many years as a local church pastor in Mississippi.He is the author or co-author of numerous books on church leadership, including "An Aura of Hope," "The Right Questions for Church Leaders," "Church Leadership: Vision, Team, Culture, and Integrity," "Sustaining While Disrupting," and, with Bishop Tom Berlin, "Bearing Fruit," "Overflow," and "High Yield."Resources mentioned in this episode:An Aura of Hope: United Methodism's Next Chapter in the United StatesUnited Methodist Focus, Dr. Weems's newsletter on the future of the United Methodist ChurchLewis Center for Church Leadership at Wesley Theological Seminary

What if the life you worked so hard to build no longer feels aligned with who you're becoming?In Part One of the ICON Series, Allison Walsh explores the powerful process of reinvention and what it means to intentionally create your next chapter. From career changes and entrepreneurship to identity, personal growth, and finding greater alignment, Allison shares the lessons she has learned through her own seasons of reinvention—and why starting again does not mean starting from scratch.You may have the career, business, title, recognition, or stability you once dreamed about, yet still feel like something is missing. If you've been asking yourself, “Is this still right for me?”, this episode will help you recognize the difference between simply being successful and being truly aligned with the life you're building.In This Episode, Allison Explores:The 4 signs that you may be ready for reinventionWhy success can stop feeling like alignmentHow gratitude and growth can exist at the same timeWhy your identity can become limiting when it is tied too closely to a title or roleThe difference between being capable of something and being called to continue doing itWhy working harder isn't always the answer when something no longer fitsHow to recognize whether a difficult season is developing you or depleting youWhat to do when your future requires more space than your current life can holdHow to conduct an intentional reinvention auditWhat you should honor, release, carry forward, and practice nowWhy you don't have to burn down your current life to begin creating your next chapterHow to start building your next career, business, or opportunity before you're ready to make the leapThe Reinvention AuditIf you're in a season of change, Allison challenges you to evaluate four things:HONOR — What has this chapter given you?RELEASE — What no longer fits?CARRY FORWARD — What experience, skills, relationships, reputation, and strengths are you taking with you?PRACTICE NOW — What decision can you make today that reflects the woman you're becoming?You don't need to map out the next five years. You simply need to get honest about your next right move.Your Challenge This WeekTake a few minutes to complete your own reinvention audit.Write down four headings:Honor. Release. Carry Forward. Practice Now.You don't need to figure out your entire future.

What happens when something completely outside the life you've built starts pulling at your attention? Is it just a passing curiosity—or could it be the beginning of your next calling?David Dachinger's career has taken some remarkable turns. He began in the music world, eventually composing for major television sports and earning a Grammy nomination. Then, after moving next door to a firehouse and simply accepting an invitation to attend a drill, he discovered an entirely different kind of purpose. He became a career firefighter and lieutenant, and later moved into work supporting the mental health and resilience of first responders.David's story is about what can happen when we “go through the open door.” We talk about recognizing opportunities we didn't plan for, how experiences from one chapter can quietly plant seeds for the next, and why the things that matter most may require us to tolerate a period of uncertainty and discomfort.If you're curious about a direction that doesn't quite fit the professional identity you've already built, this conversation offers a useful way to think about whether that curiosity deserves a closer look.About Second CallingSecond Calling is a podcast for professionals figuring out their next chapter. Host Bradley Wright, a sociologist who studies purpose and change, talks with people who have navigated meaningful professional transitions and with experts who help us understand what those moments require.Learn More About David DachingerHelping the Helpers Book: https://a.co/d/04SSmMFdWebsite: https://www.respondertv.comYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@ResponderResilienceFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/responderTVInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/responder.tv/LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/82141685/Connect with Bradley:Newsletter: bradleywrightphd.com/essays Website: bradleywrightphd.comLinkedIn: linkedin.com/in/bradleywrightphd/
Jackie Burgess-Bishop, FACHE, who recently retired as CEO of the National Kidney Foundation of Illinois, reflects on her path from studying biology at Northwestern to leading one of Illinois' most vital health organizations, the obstacles she faced as a woman in STEM, how patient education and access to care have changed over her career, and what she hopes people remember most about her seven years at NKFI. We also honor Dylan Richardson in our Donor Spotlight. Dylan was seven years old when he died from injuries sustained in a car crash in 2007. His parents, Dan and Lisa, made the decision to donate his organs — a choice that gave three people more time and made a superhero-loving little boy a hero in death.WATCH: https://youtu.be/GBTqXHGNoto?si=n5M5whteJU-F17yjFOLLOW: @nkfillinois, @cantvchicago, @monicafox99, @saryjanec
An all-new episode of the North Pole Podcast discusses the Next Chapter in Elf on the Shelf. Crash and I have two guests in this episode, the first is Elf Horace Feeney, who invented Elf on the Shelf many years ago. You can hear his story in the podcast episode we did last December titled “New Discoveries About Elf on the Shelf”. That episode came after a season of feedback from people asking for help with their elves. We found some out there to be unhappy. So Santa authorized a survey which has been running since that time to learn more about what the Elf on the Shelf experience out there was like. The results of that survey has created a new effort at the North Pole called the Visiting Elf Program. That program is led by Elf Buddy McFudge, who has already posted a great deal of information this year on Santa Update and how that new program works. He joins us on the episode to discuss how your elf can work under Santa's direction here on Santa Update. It's a forward-looking episode we hope you enjoy.

QUOTES from the episode: "The HERS Index isn't just a score. It's somebody out there in that home throughout the build, making sure that the promises are proven. — Shelby "The better our rating industry does, the better our boots-on-the-ground rating companies and RFIs and modelers are doing their job, RESNET®wins. We all win." — John "RESNET® needs to look at themselves and say, 'How can we do this better?' And do that often. — John RESNET®is entering a new chapter. With Shelby Gatlin stepping into the executive director role and John Hensley serving as board president, the organization is navigating a softer housing market, major policy changes, and the transition from longtime executive director Steve Baden, while seeking new ways to strengthen the HERS community. In this episode of RESTalk, Bill talks with Shelby and John about what is changing and, perhaps more importantly, what RESNET® intends to preserve. A major theme is communication: providing raters, providers, builders, and other stakeholders with more education and guidance while continuing to rely on the regional expertise of the RESNET® provider network. Shelby discusses the HERS-IQ campaign, RESNET®'S newly released manufactured homes program, and the continued growth of HERS H2O as water availability becomes an increasingly important consideration for builders and communities. They also discuss the expiration of the 45L tax credit and why the HERS Index remains valuable even when a particular financial incentive disappears. Another significant change is RESNET®'S 2027 Professional Development Program. Rather than concentrating education primarily around one annual conference, RESNET plans to provide live and recorded learning opportunities throughout the year, including technical education as well as business, leadership, workforce, and growth topics. The conversation also explores something broader than individual RESNET®programs: the infrastructure behind them. Trained field professionals, consensus-based standards, quality assurance, registries, and verified data together create a system capable of supporting programs involving energy, water, codes, utilities, and existing homes. John also reflects on the carefully planned two-year leadership transition from Steve Baden and the growing interest in serving on RESNET®'s volunteer board. The takeaway is a RESNET®looking forward while asking a useful question of itself and its community: How can we do this better?

You want to write the book. Build the business. Prepare the audition. Launch the festival. Make the career pivot. There's just one problem: your current life is already full. A lot of deep-work advice assumes that you have three or four beautiful, uninterrupted hours available to disappear into your studio, office, or writing room. But what happens when you're trying to build something new while still working your current job, raising children, caring for parents, leading a team, maintaining relationships, and generally keeping your existing life running? In Episode 130 of Tales from The Lane, Kate explores the messy in-between period when your identity has begun to change, but your circumstances haven't caught up yet. You know where you want to go, but you still have to build the bridge from here to there. Kate shares practical ways to create meaningful deep-work time inside a packed life, including how to protect small blocks before attempting large ones, determine your "minimum useful block," work with your actual energy, decide what you'll do before the clock starts, create a tiny re-entry ritual, and measure progress by what moved rather than how many hours you worked. Because three focused 45-minute sessions a week add up to roughly 117 hours of concentrated work over a year. That's enough time to create something substantial. Most importantly, Kate challenges the fantasy that your real work can begin only after your life becomes less complicated. Your current life does not have to disappear before your next life can begin. Those small blocks aren't only producing the book, business, body of work, or career pivot. They're producing evidence of the person you're becoming. If this episode has you excited about what's next, enrollment is open for the Creators Leadership Mastermind, officially beginning in October. But you don't have to wait until then to start benefiting from the group, office hours, conversations, and accountability. The Creators Leadership Mastermind is designed for people with a meaningful project, goal, or next chapter they're ready to actually follow through on. Book a short call with Kate to learn more and see whether the room is right for you.
