Is the risk worth it?” We'll break down the real pros and cons of open houses today—including the security concerns sellers should consider and what alternatives may work better depending on the home, price point, and strategy. Finally, we'll talk about Lease Purchase options in today's market—when they work, who they're best for, and why they might be making a quiet comeback for certain buyers and sellers.

Black men are dying of cancer in silence. So we took a room full of dads, sons and survivors and built the most honest conversation they've ever had.This episode was recorded at Macmillan's Open House, a home built to feel like the houses that raised us: soft light, old portraits, kettle on the stove, carpet holding the memories of every step. Into that house we brought a live conversation on men, fatherhood and grief.Marvyn Harrison is joined by:– Ibrahim Kamara, whose dad died of cancer on his birthday while he was locked alone in a Covid hotel– Paul Campbell, who was denied treatment, diagnosed in the same year as his brother and sister, and watched his father die from prostate cancer– Host and facilitator Ruben Christian, unpacking identity, masculinity and the cost of being “the strong one”Inside this episode:– The Black dad who had to fight his GP just to get tested– Why three siblings were all diagnosed with cancer in the same year– How a father hid his diagnosis from ten children and made one son carry the secret alone– Men explaining what grief actually feels like inside the body– The quiet ways race, culture and masculinity shape how we ignore symptoms– What good men actually need from their partners, friends and community– Why checkups aren't a verdict, they're a lifeline and a second chanceThe episode closes with “White Smiles”, an original song written about a dream of a father who finally returns smiling, with new teeth and no pain. Listen grounded, eyes closed if you can.If you love a Black man, live with one, are raising one or are one, this is the episode you send. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

“Outside the curtain that shields the ark of the covenant law in the tent of meeting, Aaron is to tend the lamps before the Lord from evening to morning, continually.” — Leviticus 24:3 The tabernacle was the place where God's presence came to rest among his people, and our passage today brings us into that tentlike structure. Covered with several layers of fabric, the tabernacle was dark inside. So a large solid-gold candlestand was provided to give the priest enough light to perform his duties.On a deeper level the candlestand communicated that God's presence was a light amid the darkness of this world. The light of God's presence shone clearly to draw people into the clarity and safety of his guidance and care.Later God's presence moved from the tabernacle (a tent) to the temple (a building)—and then when Jesus came, he declared, “I am the light of the world” (John 8:10), showing that he, as Lord and God, was even better than the temple lighting! Jesus also said to his followers, “You are the light of the world” (Matthew 5:14), and he called them to share his light with everyone.Today, in a morally and spiritually confused world, Jesus calls us to shine his light. In our work, schools, families, communities, and more, we can shine God's light to others. But we can only do that by living in a right relationship with the Lord. How will you reflect the light of Jesus today? Jesus, you are the light this world needs! Thank you for bringing us into the light of your presence, and help us to shine your light wherever we go. In your name, Amen.

They want to invite people to an open house they are holding at the home of one of their customers where they recently finished a basement to show off their work… and the postcard they are proposing to send is, well, not that great. Rich gives them a ton of suggestions how to make it better, more effective.

Are you wondering if that shiny new business coaching program is actually worth the price tag? This week's episode is Part 2 in our mini-series on coaching investments.

And if you're a new coach looking for structure, strategy, and community in your early years, check out the Business Building Bootcamp (BBB).

In this episode I walk you through the Open House Strategy — how to use it to effectively boost your membership enrolments by giving prospects an experience of your membership rather than just a “free trial”. I explain how this differs from typical free trials, how you implement it, why it works and what you need in place for it to succeed. Then I guide you to the next step: a quiz to check if you're ready to scale your online business. Key Take-away Open House ≠ Free TrialWith the Open House you invite prospectsinto your membership community for a set periodinstead—live calls + interaction with current members—so they experience the value of community and live engagement.Showcase Live Interaction + CommunityGetting prospects into your current member space, seeing live calls, meeting or observing members, gives them proof of what your membership actually looks like.This builds trust, reduces hesitation and helps them decide if “I want to belong to this”.Use Scarcity + Time WindowThe open house is for alimited timeframe(eg. 5 days, a week) and “doors” close, which creates urgency and makes the experience feel special.Because they step in, feel part of the group, see members and THEN get asked: “Would you like to stay?” — that momentum helps conversion.Prerequisites for SuccessYou needexisting memberswho are already active and visible in the community. Without them, the open house experience will feel thin.You need awarm audience—people who know you, trust you, or have had some interaction with you. If your audience is totally cold, you'll need to warm them up first.Your membership offering must be clear: what happens during the open house, what the “normal” membership looks like afterwards. Don't mis-represent or give away unrealistic value.Implementation Tips & ConsiderationsDecide on the timeframe: eg. 5-7 days during which you will open the doors.Plan your live events: a coaching call, Q&A, mindset/training session, community interaction — these mirror your everyday membership.During that period let the prospects see real members in action, let them ask questions, let them experience the vibe.At the end...

How do you know when it's time to invest in your coaching business—and when it's smarter to hold off? In this week's episode of The Coaching Edge, I'm breaking down three pivotal turning points in every coach's business where the right kind of support can make all the difference. Here's what you'll learn: Why investing before your official launch can help you avoid wasted time and money. How to recognize the “crisis of confidence” stage—and why outside support can stop you from quitting too soon. What to do when you're 3–5 years in, working hard, but still feeling capped and hustling for every client. My own stories of investing at each of these points (from pricey 1:1 coaching to masterminds to skill-specific programs). How to think about investment without pressure, and why the timing matters just as much as the investment itself. This is part one of a two-part mini-series. Next week, I'll dive into how to actually evaluate if a coaching investment is worth it—so you can make smart, confident decisions about where to put your money.

What if you could actually take December off — without tanking your coaching business? That's what today's episode is all about. I'm pulling back the curtain on how I've structured my own coaching business for years now: intentionally building in slower months (like December, July, and August) without sacrificing my bottom line. The truth is, the most sustainable and profitable coaching businesses don't have identical revenue every month — they're designed around what the coach actually wants their life to look like. In this episode, I'll show you: Why January is one of the best months to sell coaching (and why December usually isn't). How to plan your business around seasons of revenue instead of chasing the same monthly number over and over. The simple November tasks that set you up to truly rest in December and still have a killer January. Why batching and automation aren't just time-savers, they're energy-savers — and how they've kept me sane through 15+ years of business. How to use December for reflection and alignment instead of frantic selling. If you've ever wondered how to step off the end-of-year hamster wheel without losing momentum in your business, this episode is going to give you the exact roadmap.

Rabbi Daniel Walker, leader of the Heaton Park Hebrew Congregation in Manchester, became a symbol of courage during the Yom Kippur 2025 terrorist attack on his shul. When the attacker tried to storm the building with a knife, Rabbi Walker bravely held the doors shut, protecting his congregants while two community members tragically lost their lives. He has since vowed that he will not let the darkness win and continues to lead his community and the Jewish people of the UK.✬ SPONSORS OF THE EPISODE ✬► Shilo: Help Heal the Hearts of Israeli ChildrenThousands of Israeli children are affected by terrorism daily.

Most new coaches start by throwing everything into social media—posting, tweaking, chasing the algorithm—hoping it leads to clients. But here's the truth: social media is fleeting. A post lives for a few hours (maybe days). A podcast episode can work for you for years. In this episode of The Coaching Edge, I'm sharing why I believe podcasting is the single most powerful top-of-funnel tool for coaches, and how it has worked for me in both my personal coaching practice (Bite-Sized Balance) and my business coaching work (The Coaching Edge). I'll walk you through five hidden benefits of podcasting most coaches don't think about, from the fact that you own your podcast (no algorithm stress), to the way long-form audio builds real trust, to the evergreen power of episodes that continue to convert years later. (I still sign new 1:1 clients from Bite-Sized Balance—a podcast I wrapped up over two years ago.) You'll also get an inside look at my funnel model and how my podcast fits into it. Each episode flows naturally into my freebies, my low-ticket workshops, and then into my Business Building Bootcamp Open Houses. From there, the right-fit clients join BBB or my more premium offers. It's a simple, low-pressure funnel that works because the podcast does the heavy lifting of building trust. And I'll tackle the three biggest pushbacks I hear from coaches about podcasting: “Isn't it too expensive?” (Nope—editing and hosting can be surprisingly affordable), “Doesn't it take too much time?” (Not if you keep it simple with short episodes, and/or bi-monthly publishing, and tools like ChatGPT), and “But I don't know anyone to interview” (You don't need guests—your expertise and coaching tools are more than enough). Here's the truth: podcasting isn't as hard, expensive, or time-consuming as it looks from the outside. And the ROI is dramatically better than what you'll get by pouring your energy into social media posts that disappear overnight. If you've been on the fence about starting a podcast—or if you're wondering how to use one strategically to grow your business—this episode will give you both the inspiration and the practical steps to get started.

In this Meaningful People episode, financial advisor Moshe Alpert and community advocate Shmuly Hartstein unpack why many frum “middle‑class” families earning $200–300K still feel underwater—tuition that rivals a salary, yom tov and camp costs, seminary and simcha expectations, and the quiet creep of credit‑card debt. They debate income‑based tuition and communal funding versus personal responsibility, and share practical moves: make a real plan, build a budget, ask for a raise or start a side hustle, prioritize local schools in tzedakah, consider lower‑cost simchas or out‑of‑town living, and protect your family with insurance and a will. A candid, solutions‑oriented conversation about money, values, and making frum life sustainable.

When Sunny Levi was a little girl, she prayed every day for her disabled brother to be healed - prayers that went "unanswered" and left her questioning God, faith, and the meaning of prayer itself. Years later, that same heartbreak became the catalyst for her spiritual awakening. Now a 7th-degree black belt, Emunah life coach, and founder of the Hitbodedut Spiritual Boot Camp, Sunny channels that early pain into purpose - teaching others how to find strength, peace, and clarity through personal prayer, faith, and self-discipline.Here website: https://www.emunahtherapy.com/sunnylevicoaching✬ SPONSORS OF THE EPISODE ✬► Twillory: Winter is Coming, Stay WarmPromo Code: INSPIRE20 for 20% OFF→ https://bit.ly/4eBHeKb► Touro: Your Next StepTouro's Lander College for Men / Beis Medrash L'Talmud offers a powerful balance of rigorous Torah learning and top-tier academics, guided by rebbeim and faculty who truly care about your growth.

In this episode, I'm joined by my good friend Barry Jenkins, team leader, coach, and author of Too Nice for Sales.

You'll learn: What Barry calls “preparing for the rain” — and what to do right now How to position your business for a 20–30% increase in transactions The mindset shift from surviving to building momentum Why open houses, follow-ups, and systems matter more than ever How to leverage virtual assistants and tech to scale efficiently This conversation will fire you up and give you clarity on what to do now to be ready when the market takes off.

The Quaker experiment at Eastern State Penitentiary was meant to be a sanctuary for the soul, a place to reform criminals through silence and reflection. Instead, it accidentally engineered a form of psychological torture: solitary confinement. This episode uncovers the complicated history of this "Great Experiment" and then journeys to the offices of AFSC Prison Watch, where a new generation of Quaker activists are confronting this legacy by listening to the raw, firsthand accounts of people who have survived the modern system.  ---------------------------------------------Westtown School, a leading Quaker day school for Pre-K to 12th grade is hosting Open Houses this Fall. Upper School, Saturday, October 25th, 9:30 to 11:30 a.m.Middle School, Thursday, October 30th, 9:00 to 11:30 a.m.Lower School, Wednesday, November 5th, 9:30 to 11:30 a.m.Learn more at www.westtown.edu/fall.

In this heartfelt episode of Not Alone, Valeria sits down with her husband Gary for an intimate and honest conversation about family life, parenting, and the values that shape their home. Together, they open up about raising their three boys and reflect on how their approach to parenting has evolved over the years. From Gary's “clairvoyant” instincts about their kids' genders to navigating the early days of parenthood and finding patience along the way, the couple shares stories that are both funny and deeply touching. They discuss teaching their sons critical thinking in the digital age, the importance of leading by example, and how they stay intentional about what they allow into their home. With moments of laughter, reflection, and even tears, Valeria and Gary discuss what kind of parents they want to be for their boys, and why, in the Lipovetsky household, accountability, integrity, and love are always at the core.
