Juni Felix harnessed her past hurt to help others in their own healing. Raised in a broken home and forced to take on more than a child should to keep her family afloat, Juni felt far away from the God of the universe. When a co-worker gave her a Bible, she started to see that God is big enough for her trauma, and was there all along. On this week's episode of One80, you'll hear her incredible story of transformation. As God and others walked with her through trauma recovery, she started to make connections between the God of the Bible and the human brain, using neuroscience to help others through trauma. Juni is a national speaker, national radio personality and national best-selling author of You Are Worth the Work.

Courtney Lewis and I venture here, there, and a little bit of everywhere in this week's episode. A parent, community activist, and my friend since 1st grade, Courtney and I chat about how bonkers it can be to contemplate being responsible for the lives of tiny humans, how to determine what expectations are worth living up to and which need to be chucked, and how grateful we are social media didn't exist when we were in junior high. I can't even pretend to write a description that does justice to this episode, you'll just have to tune in and experience it for yourself! Find Courtney's Favorites!

Growing up in the 80s and 90s, there wasn't much discussion about "mental health", unless it was crammed into a very special episode of a sitcom and was awkwardly laced with laugh tracks. Though it wasn't uncommon for people to see therapists back then, it wasn't quite normalized just yet and it definitely wasn't as acceptable for young boys to talk about depression and crying. This has changed a lot over the last 20 years and we believe the Oregon Trail Generation played a big part in making mental health something to discuss at the dinner table in between half-frozen bites of Kid Cuisine. As usual, expect a couple of inappropriate jokes sprinkled in between frank discussions of depression, anxiety, and suicidal thoughts...you know...to keep it light-hearted.

In Episode 112 of Idea Diary - Today, I talk about discovering there is a micro generation that I am part of - Xennials, the Oregon Trail Generation! Makes so much more sense to me! I did feel a little different from a real Gen Xer- vs. a Millennial.

This is a “tough love” episode. Many of us are feeling overwhelmed, anxious, distracted and too busy. I think a lot of that can be alleviated by decreasing your smartphone usage and fighting against social media and digital addictions. It’s time to take back our lives. It’s time to take control of our schedules. In this episode, I lead you through several steps to cut back on digital distraction, partly inspired by Cal Newport’s new book, “Digital Minimalism.” Let me take you back in time when baby boomers, Gen Xers and the Oregon Trail Generation can remember a time in our adult lives when smartphones and social media didn’t exist—and cellphones were just for calling people. As a kid in the 1980s, I would often whine, “I’m bored.” And I just had to figure out what to do about that boredom. Now, no one is ever allowed to be bored. Instead, we reach for our smartphones. Boredom is highly underrated. Over the Memorial Day weekend, I bought Cal Newport’s new book, “Digital Minimalism.” And I read it in 24 hours. Newport argues that you have to figure HOW you’re going to spend your leisure time BEFORE you cut back on your digital life. If you just force yourself to put down the phone or not use social media at set times—without a plan—you’ll be anxious and fidgety, not knowing what to do with yourself. I want to focus my leisure time on health, fitness and nutrition. I’m making a plan to walk 10,000 steps several days a week and dusting off my bike to go for fun rides again. I culled my social media feeds, unfollowing most people on Instagram—only keeping a few real-life friends—and cutting my Twitter followings in half. I also dropped out of 27 Facebook groups! Who knew I was in so many?! I’m focusing on two that are particularly interesting, educational and inspiring, with a true community feel. Cal Newport also talks about the importance of solitude. He says there’s this myth that solitude means being physically alone, but what it really means is freeing up your mind. We all need this. You may have to actually schedule solitude and downtime until it becomes more of a habit again. Your tough love, digital intervention marching orders: Start tracking your time. Decide how you want to spend your leisure or down time. Learn more about habit formation. Start decluttering your digital world. Biz Bite: Assigning ringtones to important people.

In this our very first episode, we are going to discuss what exactly The Oregon Trail Generation is and what it encompasses. We'll be talking about various subjects from our  generational perspective, which because of when we were born, gives us a unique outlook in comparison to other generations..

Trust me when I tell you that Generation Z matters. Especially if you’re a parent of teens, you want to figure out how their brains are working. If you own or run a business, they matter because you’re going to need to learn how to get them motivated and engaged in your product or service. Today’s guest on the podcast is the author of InstaBrain: The New Rules for Marketing to Generation Z, Sarah Weise, and she’s sharing with us everything you need to know about Generation Z. This is a must-listen interview for anyone who wants to get in the brain of the Gen Z consumer. If you want to know what motivates this generation to take action and get them in the door, then this is the episode for you.  [3:47] Get to know Sarah and how she found the gold in this generation. Sarah talks about running a small research company and the work she’s done with both large and small companies. She wanted to figure out ways to marketing to Generation Z more effectively. With 51% of the world’s population under the age of twenty-five, listen here to find out what key behavior they’re not doing to find information, and what they’re turning to instead.  [6:22] Key characteristics of the different generations Here we break down all of the living generations; the Silent Generation, Boomers, Generation X, a micro-generation called the Oregon Trail Generation, Millennials, Generation Z, and Generation Alpha. Learn more about the role that high-speed internet had in shaping an entire generation. [10:07] How Millennials differ from Gen Z. Millennials are only a few years older than Gen Z, but they’re so different because they grew up with different things going on around them. Including their parents. Here Sarah explains the shift from ‘helicopter parenting’ to ‘tech parenting’. Learn more about how this shift changed what and how people are sharing information about themselves online.  [17:20] Gen Z’s attention span and influence.  While Millennials can juggle three screens at a time, Generation Z can juggle five. Listen here to find out the specific length of time you have to catch both a Millennial and a Generation Zer’s attention and how their behavior is impacting other generations.  [23:01] How to motivate Generation Z.  This generation doesn’t say “here’s what I need to know.” Instead, they ask “what should I want to know?” and then they scroll. They rely on algorithms and recommendations to inspire them. Sarah talks about how once you hook them, they can be hyper-focused for hours, and this can actually be a huge opportunity for business and marketing.  [30:27] What kinds of content make Generation Z feel good? They love learning. Consuming hours of YouTube videos where they learn how to do something will make them feel good, but watching hours of Netflix could make them feel guilty. Learn more about the natural researching tendencies of Gen Z here. [32:54] What gets Gen Z to go to an event or campaign?  Where Millennials were motivated by FOMO, Gen Z also wants a shirt. They’re looking for a customized experience that is interesting enough to share on social media. Find out specific ways that you can make your event more appealing to Generation Z here.    Mentioned on the episode:  InstaBrain: The New Rules for Marketing to Generation Z by Sarah Weise Sarah Weise on Instagram Sarah Weise on Twitter Sarah Weise on LinkedIn What did you think about the episode?

What's up everyone? I promise I have not been neglecting you. As I approach the ten year mark with this podcast (next month!!!) I have been doing some heavy digging through the archives. The previous 90s Disco episode was a good example. But putting these episode together from my past take a lot of time and thought, none more than this one. This is one that has been needing to get made from the beginning. I'm so happy to finally release it into the wild to share with you!   So the question of the day is, does the phrase "you died of dysentery" mean anything to you? I have actually tried this out and it really blows my mind when people have no idea what I'm talking about. How have you never played Oregon Trail?!?! Apparently if you did, you are very similar in age to me and you sit just between GenX and the Millennials. The term Oregon Trail Generation was coined by Anna Garvey in this 2015 piece (link). I love the summary, analog childhood and digital adulthood. Couldn't think of a better way to define it. More germane to the podcast at hand, it also means you were, like me, around 11-18 when all the songs came out, key formative musical years, and you lived the heyday of Alternative rock! If you're with me, I think you're going to have a lot of fun with this one. It was quite the nostalgic ride putting it together. If it's new to you, well then welcome to my version of classic rock. Either way, I would love to hear your reactions!   Oh and it's clearly not alternative rock but it was bonus track that had to get thrown in at the last second and the video is essential.

Despite reports of $10,000/week avocado toast habits ravaging their bank accounts, studies show that Millennials and other young Americans are still managing to buy homes now and then. But the specific homes they’re choosing might not resemble what their parents might have picked—and the new American Dream House might suggest something startling about our future.At least that’s the premise of a new opinion piece from the New York Times by Candace Jackson, The New American Dream House is One You Never Have to Leave. Jackson argues that today’s homebuyers have become disillusioned with the idea that real estate is a rock-solid investment and that a successful American can safely aspire to trade up and out of their starter home and into a succession of ever-bigger McMansions over the course of their lives. Instead, Millennials and other buyers are demanding homes that they can stay in indefinitely—and for many, that includes granny flats that can house parents as they age to save on retirement home costs, basement apartments that can be rented out for a little AirBnB income, and modular floor plans that are adaptable when economic times get too rough to make a move possible.Strong Towns staffers Kea and Daniel are both members of that Millennial home buying generation (though they prefer the term “Oregon Trail Generation”; #alwayschoosethebanker). In this episode of Upzoned, they talk about how they chose homes with an eye towards an uncertain economic future, and what they think about Lennar, the nation’s biggest homebuilder, getting into the accessory dwelling unit game. And then they wonder whether the generation that came of age during the financial crisis is uniquely likely to become Strong Towns advocates—and what the continent might look like if they do.In the Downzone, Kea recommends Pick of the Litter, a new documentary about training service dogs that provides some fascinating insights into what it really takes for visually impaired people to navigate our built environment (and also provides some super cute puppies). And Daniel talks about a book by Mark Kurlansky that traces the history of mankind by following the much longer history of a substance you might not think about often: common table salt.

Bobby starts off with a strange alcoholic concoction as we talk about the Oregon Trail Generation and our first foray into the internet. We then have a MovieCast Quiz and finish off with talking about guests we’ll never have on the show.

There's a funky little micro-generation between Gen X and Millenials...and that's my people. Just a brief introduction to me and to what I hope this podcast will end up being.

Ken and Mike return with a spirited back-and-forth about North Carolina’s bathroom bill, a bit about Bernie, and a diatribe about Trump and the justice system. You know, the usual. Ken refers to the excellent Dana Gould Hour podcast episode Left & Right, and this piece by Anna Garvey defining the Oregon Trail Generation. And […]
