In this episode, I chat with IFBB Bikini Pro Bodybuilder Natalie Matthews about the best way to train if you want to grow your glutes
In this conversation, Mark Kargela interviews Michael Shacklock about his journey and influences in the field of neurodynamics. They discuss the transition from the traditional view of neural tension testing to neurodynamics, the influence of pain science on clinical practice, and the importance of integrating the biological examination with psychosocial factors. Michael also shares his focus on lumbar radiculopathy in his PhD research, specifically looking at unloading the nerve root for pain relief. In this conversation, Michael Shacklock discusses the use of neurodynamic techniques in the treatment of radiculopathy. He explains that movement-related pain should respond quickly to movement, and shares his favorite patient profile for this type of treatment. Shacklock emphasizes the importance of ruling out contralateral tests if they provoke pain, as this indicates reduced cord movement. He also discusses the role of radiology in diagnosing radiculopathy and the challenges of interpreting radiology reports. Shacklock addresses the misconceptions around neurodynamic tests and highlights the need for a comprehensive approach that integrates neurodynamics with musculoskeletal function. He concludes by discussing the application of neurodynamic techniques in acute radiculopathy and the importance of adapting treatment to the individual patient's needs.If you are looking to go deeper on topics, get training, and become a better pain care clinician, then check out our community at https://modernpaincare.com**TIMESTAMPS**00:00:00 Start00:02:04 Interview Begin00:07:15 The movement to neurodynamics versus neural tension00:10:37 How has pain science influenced MIchael's approach00:14:40 There is a time to specifically treat the tissues00:18:51 Michael's PhD focus00:23:32 Crossed straight leg raising as treatment00:26:50 Differneces between mechanical compresison and inflammtory nerve root issues00:32:05 Difficulties with radiolgy00:34:16 Where physios are missing the mark in application00:38:51 Use of neurodynamics in irritable patients00:42:04 Michael's view on other movement approaches00:45:09 Michael's courses and where to find him nextThe doors are open to Modern Pain Pro!

Or can only travel from certain points on mapThe game's map is an in-game object and doesn't pauseNo pause option in generalPenalty for death - lost progress, maybe the game even becomes harderFinishing a mission requires extraction, waiting, defendingYou can't save just anywhere, or have a limited number of savesLoot and upgrades don't unlock unless you complete the missionQuests are complex and require a lot of micro-managing or specific stepsCrafting and other similar activities require in-game actions or specific locationsOften referred to as “Player Friendly/Unfriendliness”Informational Friction: Relating to what the game does/doesn't tell youThe game doesn't tell you what you're supposed to do nextThe game doesn't spell out for you what's going on with the story and leaves it for you to figure out (Narrative Friction)There are a lot of concepts, mechanics, or rules to keep track of or understand (Conceptual Friction)The game's map doesn't tell you very much, or the game has no map (Navigational Friction)Branching narratives aren't signposted, little or no warning for consequential decisionsThe interface is opaque or requires a lot of inputs to useYou don't get notifications about status effects in the HUD, you have to look at your character (general world > hud approach)The game has hidden systems that you have to learn about via word of mouth or experimentation (e.g. If you want to explore the castle without getting arrested, wear the guard armor to blend in. If you die, your world becomes steadily darker. This guy will kill your NPCs, but there's an elaborate hidden spell to revive them. Etc)Other players can leave notes to help you, but the notes are often vague; other player's pawns can show you secrets, but you have to listenIn-game multiplayer communication options are limitedItem descriptions don't give specific stats, they just say vague stuff

I'm a massive advocate for leaning into your family and intimate relationships as catalysts for rapid transformation and growth. May 2023 has been a masterclass for me in showing up with authentic and grounded vulnerability to unleash profound levels of emotional intimacy and connection in my relationships. One of the most profound months of growth I have ever experienced. There is so much going on in my life right now, and as usual, you get a front row seat in this month's reflection episode. Tune in now to hear Georgina and I explore: What's possible when you choose to close one chapter of a relationship with love to intentionally create space for the nextThe power of keeping your heart open when it feels safer (or easier) to close. The 100 days of Raj challengeGiving your shame and other “prickly” emotions the space to breatheWhy mastering your interpersonal relationships begins with a commitment to self How expressing your vulnerability gives others permission to do the same Communicating your needs to others in a loving way that invites collaboration How creating a personal manifesto serves as an essential grounding tool to carry you through challenging momentsAnd more…It's not always easy to live our truth when we're afraid of how we will be received by others, but if embraced, I've found that vulnerability and authenticity can offer so much freedom. When you choose to keep your heart open and seek love in every moment, somehow, you naturally experience more of who and what you actually are. Thanks for tuning into this reflection. I love you guys very much and appreciate you being on this path with me. Means a lot.Stay Grounded. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
Meet the MobilizersTurning big plans into real actionGUEST BIO:Jeremy Myers is a Baltimore-raised mobilizer who has been with AHF since 2021. Taylor Watson is a mobilizer who has been with AHF for three and a half years.Raymond Thomas is the AHF mobilizer for Washington D.C. He's been with AHF for approximately eight years.CORE TOPICS + DETAILS:[2:43] - “The Five Senses of AHF”What it means to be a mobilizerRaymond Thomas eloquently explains the role of mobilizers as the “five senses of AHF.” In local communities, they're on the ground taking a pulse of what's going on — touching people, recruiting advocates, and keeping people engaged, interested, and aware of what AHF is fighting for every day.Meanwhile, Taylor says mobilizers are like the bus — they bring the fuel, the people, and the direction to drive change. Finally, Jeremy describes mobilizers as the people who “fill in the blanks” between plans in meeting rooms and action in the pharmacies, events, and streets.[5:03] - Two Communities, One MessageThe dual audiences of AHF mobilizersAHF mobilizers speak from two platforms, and toward two audiences — those within the community of people directly affected by AHF, and then those in the wider community to raise awareness. It's about letting people affected know that AHF is fighting for them and giving them the resources they need, while also informing the larger general public about how they can get involved – and why they should.[7:30] - Other Names for MobilizersIf you want to understand mobilizers, hear what they call themselves“Rally girls.”“Community organizers.”“Community disruptors.”“Community liaisons.”“Activists.”“We're not classy. Our job is to disrupt the order.”These quotes from this week's guests show how being a mobilizer can mean many things, and encompass many things. But it all adds up to a nontraditional role that's not meant to be stuffy, quiet, or “classy.” It's about being loud and being a voice for the communities AHF is trying to serve.[10:04] - Uncomfortable But Never In DangerKeeping mobilizers safe in difficult situationsConsidering they're on the front lines of AHF's movement, mobilizers are often put into situations they describe as “high-risk” or “uncomfortable,” though none of our guests say they've ever felt as though their lives were in danger. They feel it's their job to go places where others aren't comfortable going, while also ensuring they and everyone they're involved with are always safe and secure.[13:33] - What's NextThe future goals of AHF mobilizersIn speaking to all three of our guest mobilizers this week about their future goals, one unifying message became clear — the goals are constantly changing with each event, mission, and even from day to day. When asked, “What are your goals?” the response is always: “What event are we working on?” That constantly evolving role can be challenging, of course, but it's also exciting and invigorating for our mobilizer teams. “It really isn't about the numbers sometimes,” Taylor shares.RESOURCES:[0:00] AHF CareersFOLLOW:Follow Lauren Hogan: LinkedInFollow Sean Little: LinkedInFollow AHFter Hours: InstagramABOUT AFTER HOURS:AIDS Healthcare Foundation is the world's largest HIV/AIDS service organization, operating in 45 countries globally.

英语新闻|摩洛哥爆冷比利时Morocco pulled off yet another World Cup shock on Sunday, and Belgium's aging 'Golden Generation' took the hit this time.周日,摩洛哥再次在世界杯上上演了一出惊天好戏,而比利时日渐衰老的“黄金一代”这次也遭受了打击。The 2-0 upset left Kevin De Bruyne and the 2018 semifinalist in peril of a group-stage exit at what is likely the final World Cup for a highly talented Belgian group that hasn't managed to convert its promise into prizes. It might now be too late.2-0的爆冷让凯文·德布劳内和这位2018年的半决赛选手面临小组赛出局的危险,这很可能是这支才华横溢的比利时球队的最后一届世界杯,但他们未能兑现承诺。现在可能为时已晚。De Bruyne didn't drive Belgium forward against Morocco, captain Eden Hazard was taken off after an hour, and goalkeeper Thibaut Courtois was probably at fault for the opening goal.在对阵摩洛哥的比赛中,德布劳内没有带领比利时取得优势,队长阿扎尔在一个小时后被换下,开场被破门可能是门将库尔图瓦的过失。"We haven't seen the best Belgium yet," said Roberto Martinez, a Spaniard who has coached the team for six years. "We haven't been ourselves."“我们还没有看到最好的比利时队,”执教该队6年的西班牙人罗伯托·马丁内斯说。“我们没有发挥出自己的最好状态。Belgium could have become the second team behind defending champion France to advance to the last 16 if it beat Morocco. But it dropped from first to third in Group F and now plays against 2018 World Cup finalist Croatia trying to avoid its earliest elimination since 1998.如果击败摩洛哥,比利时本可以成为继卫冕冠军法国队之后第二支晋级16强的球队。但它从F组的第一名降至第三名,现在要对阵2018年世界杯决赛入围者克罗地亚,以避免遭遇自1998年以来最早被淘汰的局面。Morocco substitute Abdelhamid Sabiri gave his team the lead by whipping in a freekick from a tight angle on the left in the 73rd minute that got under the body of Courtois, who many people consider the best goalkeeper in the world.摩洛哥替补球员阿卜杜勒哈米德·萨比里在比赛进行到第73分钟时,从左路一个小角度开出一记任意球,打在了库尔图瓦(许多人认为其是世界上最好的门将)的身上,帮助球队取得了领先。Zakaria Aboukhlal guided a shot into the roof of the net off a pass from Hakim Ziyech in stoppage time to make it 2-0 as Belgium's defense, boasting more than 300 international appearances but anchored by two players in their mid-30s, was beaten by a speedy 22-year-old forward playing at his first World Cup.补时阶段,扎卡里亚·阿布克拉尔接哈基姆·济耶赫传球,一脚射门成功,将比分改写为2-0。比利时队曾参加过300多场国际比赛,但其防线由两名35岁左右的球员组成,最终被这名22岁、首次参加世界杯、速度极快的前锋击败。Morocco's players kneeled and pressed their heads to the ground in prayer, then leapt up in celebration. Pulling himself up from the ground, Courtois just shook his head.摩洛哥球员们跪在地上,埋着头祈祷,然后跳起来庆祝。库尔图瓦从地上爬起来,只是摇了摇头。The second big upset at the first World Cup in the Middle East involved another Arabic nation. Saudi Arabia defeated Argentina in the opening set of group games.第一届中东世界杯的第二个大冷门是另一个阿拉伯国家。沙特阿拉伯在小组赛的第一轮击败了阿根廷。Morocco, which was roared on by thunderous noise from its fans at Al Thumama Stadium, had started in Qatar with a promising 0-0 draw with Croatia.阿图玛玛体育场的摩洛哥球迷们爆发出雷鸣般的欢呼声。摩洛哥在卡塔尔世界杯中以0-0战平克罗地亚。"We are delighted with that after Croatia and Belgium," Morocco coach Walid Regragui said.“在与克罗地亚和比利时的对阵之后,我们很高兴,”摩洛哥教练雷格拉古伊表示。"That's absolutely outstanding for Morocco."“摩洛哥的表现绝对是杰出的。”Belgium, ranked No 2 in the world behind Brazil, had won its last seven group games at the World Cup before the upset, but that included a labored 1-0 win over Canada to open this year's tournament.比利时队排名世界第二,仅次于巴西。在被爆冷门之前,比利时队已经在世界杯小组赛中赢得了近七场比赛,其中包括以1比0险胜加拿大的那场世界杯开局赛。Even De Bruyne said in a media interview before the World Cup that Belgium's squad was likely too old to win now.就连德布劳内在世界杯前接受媒体采访时也表示,比利时队年纪太大了,因此很难取得胜利。"I don't think any comments will affect a result or a performance," Martinez said, dismissing the suggestion that De Bruyne's interview might have unsettled Belgium.马丁内斯表示:“我不认为任何评论会影响比赛的结果或表现。”他驳斥了德布劳内的采访可能会让比利时感到不安的说法。Morocco had to make a change right before kickoff when goalkeeper Yassine Bounou feltunwell but the North Africans were unaffected and clinched their first win at a World Cup since 1998 and only their third ever.因为门将亚辛·本努感觉不适,摩洛哥不得不在开球前做出改变,但他们并没有受到影响,他们赢得了自1998年以来的第一次世界杯胜利,也是他们在世界杯中的第三次胜利。Morocco moved to four points and Croatia is also on four points after beating Canada later Sunday. Belgium has three points and Canada has been eliminated.摩洛哥积4分,克罗地亚在周日晚些时候击败加拿大后也积4分。比利时积3分,加拿大被淘汰。Morocco has only ever been past the group stage once at a World Cup, in 1986. And things were in turmoil ahead of the tournament after former coach Vahid Halilhodzic was fired and Regragui was hired at the end of August, less than three months before the World Cup. Regragui had only three friendlies to make his mark on the team before facing Croatia at the World Cup.摩洛哥在世界杯中只有一次小组赛出线,是在1986年。今年8月底,距离世界杯开幕不到3个月,前主教练瓦希德·哈利霍季奇被解雇,雷格拉古伊被聘为主教练。在世界杯对阵克罗地亚之前,雷格拉古伊只执导了三场友谊赛。Ziyech shinesRegragui immediately recalled Ziyech, a Chelsea winger who was exiled from the team under Halilhodzic because of a rift between them. Ziyech curled in a disallowed freekick in the first half, set up the second goal, and was Morocco's best player against Belgium.雷格拉古伊立即召回了切尔西边锋齐耶赫,这名球员在哈利霍季奇的领队时期因双方矛盾而被逐出球队。上半场,齐耶赫任意球被判无效,助攻第二个进球,是摩洛哥对阵比利时的最佳球员。Lukaku returnsMartinez brought on forward Romelu Lukaku, the country's record scorer, as a substitute with less than 10 minutes to go in a desperate attempt to get one back when it was 1-0. Lukaku is only just returning from a left thigh problem and Belgium has missed him dearly. Martinez might be forced to start him against Croatia.在比赛还剩不到10分钟的时候,马丁内斯替补出场,换下球队得分王罗梅卢·卢卡库,希望能在比分为1比0的情况下扳回一球。卢卡库刚刚从左大腿伤病中恢复过来,比利时队非常想念他。马丁内斯可能被迫在对阵克罗地亚的比赛中首发出场。What's nextThe final group games are on Thursday, when Morocco will come back to Al Thumama Stadium to play Canada. Belgium will face Croatia at the same time.小组赛最后一场将在周四举行,届时摩洛哥将回到阿图玛玛体育场迎战加拿大。比利时将同时迎战克罗地亚。来源:新华社upset英[ʌpˈset];美[ʌpˈset]n.爆冷门unsettle英[ˌʌnˈsetl];美[ʌnˈsɛtl]v.扰乱turmoil英[ˈtɜːmɔɪl];美[ˈtɜːrmɔɪl]n.混乱;焦虑
Metals are not going to stop crashing until the US dollar turns.I've been banging on about that for some time. I don't know when that will be. Nor does anyone. But this US dollar action feels like the parabolic blow-off that you get towards the end of bull markets, rather than the creeping disbelief you get at the beginning.I'm hearing talk of forex interventions coming. That may or may not be so. So I'm not ready to pull the trigger just yet. But… I'm closely following the price action of two metals that look remarkably cheap. They are silver and platinum. I mentioned them last week.Platinum looks cheap, regardless of what happens nextThe case for platinum, the main use of which is in catalytic converters for diesel engines, is pretty simple. You would normally expect it to trade at a 25% premium to gold. That is the historical average. But demand has been shattered since the Volkswagen emissions scandal of 2015 and the subsequent move away from diesel engines.Gold is currently at $1,720/oz. If history is any guide, platinum “should” be north of $2,000/oz. It isn't though. It's $830.I don't really know what's going to change on the demand side. Platinum may have a major role to play in fuel cells and the hydrogen economy (as a catalyst), but so far this has not been perceived as significant enough to push the price higher.In any case, here is a 20-year chart of platinum. I've drawn a dashed blue line around $780 and you can see the platinum has been below this level just once in almost 20 years – during the Corona panic of March 2020.It went to $600/oz intraday back then. Otherwise the $770 area has been the floor.So if you can pick platinum up below $800, let's just say your downside is likely limited.And now to the disappointment that is silverSilver is not quite as clear cut. Oh, silver! How I used to love it back in the noughties. Experience changed my view. Was there ever a metal with so much potential? Silver is to electronics and modern tech as sugar or salt is to food. It is in just about everything. Then there is its monetary allure as well. Didn't silver go to $50 during the inflation of the 1970s? Aren't you supposed to take refuge in precious metals during inflationary episodes? Here we are in 2022 and silver has fallen off a cliff. It's sitting at $18. For five years between 2015 and 2020 that $19-20 area was resistance. Technical analysis 101 says $19-20 should now be support. But silver – being silver – has cut straight through it.It went to $12 in the corona panic and $8 in 2008, but the $14 zone has for many years been a pivotal price zone.Here's a long-term chart with a dashed line drawn at the $14 mark.Can it get to $14 on this move? It would be extraordinary, given the amounts of money that have been printed, for it to go that low. There should be some support at $18 and at $16, but it's silver, so never underestimate its capacity to disappoint.If the US dollar index goes to 120, a number I've been harping on about for months, then silver will get that low. And in a panic it will probably surpass it (if surpass is the right word).As I say, I'm not quite ready to pull the trigger. My appetite for risk has been somewhat tempered by the market action of recent months. But, as with platinum below $800, your downside is limited buying silver at $14 or below.When I say buying silver or platinum, I don't necessarily mean going down to the bullion shop and buying bars, nice though they are. I mean physical metal stored in vaults, ETFs (exchange-traded funds), mining companies, even options or spread betting the price (though these last two are only for the experienced and highly risk-aware, so if you don't already know how to do it, I suggest you don't).If we get to those kinds of levels I'll put out another piece explaining in more detail some ways to play it. I must say if silver goes to $14 I'm likely to get out the leverage.But I'm not quite ready to pull the trigger yet. Bottom fishing is a dangerous, and often expensive game. However, silver and platinum are very much coming into the “buy” zone. And at a certain point they will be irresistibly cheap. I'd say we are nearly there, but not quite yet. Patience…For those after physical metal, my current recommended bullion dealer in the UK is The Pure Gold Company, whether you are taking delivery or storing online. Premiums are low, quality of service is high. You can deal with a human being. In Ireland it's Goldcore. Both deliver to the UK, US, Canada and Europe, or you can store your gold with them. I have affiliation deals with both. This is a public episode. If you'd like to discuss this with other subscribers or get access to bonus episodes, visit www.theflyingfrisby.com/subscribe

In this episode, I'm chatting with McLean McGown, a Motherhood Coach, Postpartum Guide, Doula, and host of the podcast Mother the Mother. After the birth of her first daughter, McLean quickly realized that there was a great need for women to be supported on a deeper level, not only through pregnancy and birth but also during the Postpartum shift. Through her own Postpartum journey with little support, she made it her mission to show up for other women as the kind of loving support that she wished she'd had.In this episode you'll learn:How investing in yourself postpartum (or at any point!) is an investment in family wellnessHow Americans are largely ‘lost at sea' on a cultural level when it comes to caring for new momsWhy mothers need extra support postpartum always - but especially because so many of us are already depleted on a foundational level before we even birth our babiesHow our experience of womanhood is on a continuum with one experience informing the nextThe story of how I learned unmet needs never truly go away until you meet them - even if it's years after the factHow we've outsourced our trust in our body's innate wisdom and what that means for women everywhereFor more from McClean:http://www.motherthemother.comhttps://www.instagram.com/motherthemother/https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/mother-the-mother/id1455408650Ready for deeper support and the tools it takes to be a better cycle breaker?

Good leaders multiply disciple making ministry. And yet most of us would admit that our churches struggle with leadership development. Author of ‘Wisdom in Leadership Development' Craig Hamilton has lots of wisdom about how the average church can develop a leadership pipeline. https://matthiasmedia.com.au/collections/latest/products/wisdom-in-leadership-developmentCraig serves as senior minister of Pitt Town Anglican Church. His book includes ten commandments for creating a leadership pipeline. Going from one layer to the next takes intentionality and specific trainingThe goal isn't to ‘level up'Being good at a ministry doesn't mean you should advance up the pipeline Being awesome at one layer tells you nothing about whether you'll be awesome at the nextThe behaviours that cause success at one layer will sometimes compromise it at the nextDon't skip layersThe goal is not toe be optimally proficient in every skill at every layerThe further along the pipeline you are the more things changeThe pipeline can get clogged at any levelLife is often not as neat as the pipelinehttp://www.thepastorsheart.net/podcast/leadership-developmentSupport the show (https://www.patreon.com/thepastorsheart)
Hey Mind Body Master, This is a very special episode of the podcast that I am excited to share with you! In today's episode, I interview Mark Wolynn. Mark Wolynn is the director of the Family Constellation Institute in San Francisco and is a leading expert in the field of inherited family trauma.

The partner may need to review/revise; clients may need to approve or provide feedback, etc. before the submission/due date.(Jennie Knapp talked about this as well!)Advice for lawyers in the job huntStart right now to build a network; curate people in your life who will help you achieve your goals and/or make you a better personMother Attorney Mentor Association (MAMAs) - active Facebook page that is helpful on so many issues.PracticalKeep a master list of where you've been and what you've been doing. Good for a conflicts check too. Can be used to construct your resume as well as supplemental materials such as a list of representative cases or deals, presentations, papers, etc.Keep a brag book with kudos or thank yous from colleagues, clients, etc.On work-life balanceHave a big-picture focus. Don't look at it daily or weekly. Some days and weeks won't be balanced. Monthly or yearly is more realistic.Need to get rid of the toxic work culture that doesn't have any boundaries; it needs to come from firm leadership. Optimistic a new generation of leaders will have success making these changes."A boundary is a place from which I can love both you and me simultaneously." - Prentis HemphillChoose a position and role that allows you to do the work you want while balancing the other parts of life according to your values.Example about whether or not vacation time is real in a specific firm.Rapid fire questionsName one trait/characteristic you most want to see in an associate: coachableWhat habit has been key to your success? calendaring deadlines when they come in and always setting up a two week reminderFavorite app/tool: N/AFavorite pen: Pilot G2 1.0 / blue (no fine points where you are chiseling in stone; need some glide!)Favorite social distancing activity: 5am walks in the dark with a podcastFavorite legal movie: A Time To Kill (also loves My Cousin Vinny and Legally Blonde)Thanks again to Danielle Ahlrich for joining us on today's show!

Attorney turned mystery writer Robert McCaw credits an ability to reinvent himself for his successful transition from a defender of justice to a storyteller with a fascination for how our past sins affect the way we behave now. Hi there, I'm your host Jenny Wheeler, and in today's Binge Reading episode Robert talks about the enduring love affair he's had with Hawaii that led to his Koa Kane detective series and how a New York attorney transitioned into a new career as a mystery writer. Six things you'll learn from this Joys of Binge Reading episode: Why Hawaii's marvelous volcanoes feature in his booksHow he transitioned from New York lawyer to mystery writerHis passion for all things HawaiianWhat book is coming nextThe writers he admires mostWhat he'd do differently second time around Where to find Robert McCaw: Website: https://robertbmccaw.com/ Facebook: @Writerrobertbmccaw Twitter: @RobertBMcCaw What follows is a "near as" transcript of our conversation, not word for word but pretty close to it, with links to important mentions. But now, here's Robert. Jenny Wheeler: Hello there, Robert and welcome to the show. It's great to have you with us.detective series author Robert McCaw - mystery author Robert McCaw: It's so nice to be here and it's nice of you to make this opportunity available and let me chat with you and your listeners. Jenny Wheeler: You have had a successful career in law and we'll go into that a little bit later, but then you turned your hand to mystery writing, and that's what we're interested in today – a police series with Chief Detective Koa Kane set in Hawaii. Was there some moment in your life when you thought, if I don't get to write some fiction, I'll feel as if my life hasn't been complete? If so, was there a catalyst for it? Introducing author Robert McCaw Robert McCaw: Well, it didn't happen quite that way. While I was practicing law, I went to an American Bar Association Conference in Hawaii and Honolulu, and after that I went and spent some time on the Big Island. I fell in love with the place. It is one of the most culturally and geographically diverse places I've ever been, climate wise as well. Kilauea Volcano - picture LA Times As I fell in love with it, I began to do more and more research, began to talk to people on the Island, went back over and over again. So it was Hawaii first, and I felt this compulsion to share with others my discovery of Hawaii and its culture and its history and its language. Then the question was how to do that. As a lawyer, I've always pieced together facts and arguments. I've loved puzzles and so it was kind of natural to do it as a mystery. But then I had one of the really difficult choices to make. Because I wanted this book to speak, almost as though Hawaii is a character in the book, which is the way I think about it, I wanted my protagonist to be a Hawaiian. The challenge to write Of course, I'm not Hawaiian, so that required a lot of work, and I was busy at that time with an active practice of law, so it literally took me twenty years to put the first book together. It wasn't until after I slowed down in the law practice that I actually managed to get it out and into the hands of readers. Jenny Wheeler: Before that moment, you'd never really considered writing fiction? Robert McCaw: Well, I'd considered it, but I was talking to one of my partners one day and I said I was thinking about writing a book. He looked at me and said, if you were really serious, it would come out of you. That was the moment at which it became really serious – that compulsion to tell the Hawaiian story. James A Michener's blockbuster about Hawaii. Jenny Wheeler: Yes, that challenge from someone else. You have three books published so far, but the most recent one is called Death of a Messenger, (republished from 2015 - editor note.) and it places Koa on the trail of a murder involving ancient rituals,

Came to a point where She needed a creative boost: Exhibited photography and African drumming, then decided to take time off. As an entrepreneur we are often scared to take time off. Your own growth and your own business growth are as important as what you are contributing. Impact has three elements, income, collective care (how you are contributing to other people’s lives) and legacy. Collective Care, How Ursula defines it. “We are all connected. We are all connected to each other. With that understanding our own wellbeing is tied up with everyone else’s wellbeing”There is an expansive view of the world that we are all connected and that when we contribute we are all connected and business is a wonderful way to do that. No one has impact alone: It’s a communal experience. Community MattersIn community my ideas are amplified, what one person is thinking is normally on everyone’s mindsIf we are going to enact a positive outcome we need one anotherCompanies that focus on impact do substantially better when there is an impact focus.

Oh my goodness. This woman has such a story, such a mission. This week we connected with Crystalyn Aucoin of Crystalyn Aucoin Jewelry. She has built a solid business over the past 18 months - so solid that you would think she has been in business for a decade. Out of New Orleans, she has gone through personal tragedy that brought her to Houston and back home to New Orleans again. She emerged from that stronger: a single mom, a widow in her early 30s. A fire was lit within her - she fanned that flame and committed to diving into her dream, starting her own business in spite of those around her questioning, 'Why would you do something so hard, after you've just gone through something so painful?' Entrepreneurs are used to that question...luckily the 'why' of it all is everything. The stronger your 'why', the the stronger your will to build a sustainable business and the stronger your determination to leverage that business to impact and serve others.This is a powerful one - here's a quick highlight of our discussion:The Impact of COVID-19 on a Product-Based BusinessThe shift she made when her manufacturers shut downFriendship bracelets and the importance of customer connectionAdopting a creative solution to nudge a slower-moving productThe Importance of MentorsThe support, coaching, and promotion of her product from Rachel HollisThe 1 key thing Jasmine Star personally told her to do in order to launch her business (she launched within one month of that advice!)Coming Out of a Personal Tragedy StrongerDealing with 'imposter syndrome'Pushing through when those around her doubted her goalsManaging grief, being a single mom, a young widow, starting a businessComing to terms with new roles, titles, responsibilities, and expectationsCareer Shifting: The Jump from Billboard Sales to Jewelry DesignCreating an everyday jewelry line for women from work to the soccer fieldJumping in with zero experience in building a businessLeveraging online courses and content, hiring helpFinding success in a male-dominated industry (yes, the jewelry industry is run mostly by men!)Empowering women to buy jewelry for themselvesJust Start.A special message for single moms and those going through hardships looking to start their own businessBuilding the foundation: what you start with won't be what you finish withLearning while putting that learning into actionObstacles as a reminder of what you've accomplished and a way to prepare you for what's nextThe ultimate question, 'Is it really as hard as I'm making it out to be?'The money mindset - investing in yourself and your businessThe Mission.Inspiring women through her story and journeyBasing her business on connection and relationshipsGiving back to cancer-related initiatives to honor her husband RyanEarning more to give back moreMuscle Creative Wrap-UpIf you could listen to only one music artist for the rest of your life who would it be?
