You set them up, fill them out, and then they gather dust—or worse, make you feel more overwhelmed.In this episode of Simply Convivial, I'm sharing 3 reasons your planner might not be working and what you can do instead. Homemakers need a planning tool that fits the interruptions, unpredictability, and priorities of family life—not an executive schedule built for boardrooms and conference calls.I'll walk you through:Why your planner's design may not match your real life.How perfectionism and wishful thinking sneak into your planning pages.The number one reason planners fail (hint: it's about habits, not layouts).A working planner isn't about checking every box. It's about having a tool that helps you cut through mental clutter, make wise choices in the moment, and prevent overwhelm.

Organizing is collective action. It is the tool we employ to overcome harms sanctioned by the state and committed against those who are perceived to be powerless. Organizing exposes inequities, identifies who perpetuates them, and generates solutions to systemic injustices. At a moment when our national leaders are leveraging their powers to undercut civil rights, detain and deport Latinx men, women and children without adherence to laws or norms, organizing is more than an option, it is a necessity. In this episode of Power Station, I am joined by Danny C, whose commitment to mobilizing underserved communities was shaped by his lived experience as the son of migrant parents who struggled with housing costs and displacement. He co-founded La Colectiva, a nonprofit powered by Northen Virginia's robust Latinx population. It is leading critical organizing campaigns about how ICE, Amazon and ICA-Farmville operate at the expense of and without accountability to Latinx people and all communities of color. It exposes how Democratic leadership fails to honor community over corporations. La Colectiva is making seismic shifts in Virginia's power dynamics and its reports put that information in the hands of those who are empowered to do better. Hear him!
Our guest on this episode of The Member Engagement Show is Christin Berry CAE, VP Business Analytics and Data services at ASAE. Christin recently presented a session at ASAE's annual conference on how to use data to gain meaningful insights that can help you ask better questions and make better decisions. This tied in nicely to Higher Logic's own recently released 2025 Association Community Benchmark Report, so we thought this was the perfect time to help associations more effectively collect and leverage data. Topics covered include: The ways data can be most helpful to associations. Gaps in the way we approach data. Getting beyond just numbers to help foster faster decision-making. Using different formats to get information out to constituents. How offering fast answers can lead to broader content discovery. Organizing information infrastructures to facilitate fast answers. Data setup for internal use. Data mining to combat low survey response rates. Why data, in isolation, isn't enough for good decision-making. The importance of knowing why you're gathering data. Why it's okay if your data just helps you ask better questions. Why watching the pattern can be more powerful than watching the numbers. The need for curious people. How to not get overwhelmed with data. Building automations off your data. Some Helpful Links ASAE Higher Logic's 2025 Association Community Benchmark Report

Demand for computing power is fueling a massive surge in investment in data centers worldwide. McKinsey estimates spending will hit $6.7 trillion by 2030, with more than $1 trillion expected in the U.S. alone over the next five years. As this boom accelerates, public scrutiny is intensifying. Communities across the country are raising questions about environmental impacts, energy demands, and the broader social and economic consequences of this rapid buildout. To learn more about these debates—and the efforts to shape the industry's future—Justin Hendrix spoke with two activists: one working at the national level, and another organizing locally in their own community. Vivek Bharathan is a member of the No Desert Data Center Coalition in Tucson, Arizona.Steven Renderos is executive director of MediaJustice, an advocacy organization that just released a report titled The People Say No: Resisting Data Centers in the South.

Most states in the U.S. have laws that protect breastfeeding mothers, allowing them to nurse their babies in public. But that doesn't mean the laws are always upheld and the result can be devastating to a mom who simply needs to feed her baby. Organizing a nurse-in is one way to raise awareness about these discrepancies and to encourage change. So, what exactly happens during a nurse-in? How are they organized? And do they really make a difference? Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

We discuss the murder of Charlie Kirk this week and how despite the shooter still being at large (as of our tapping of the show), many in the MAGA movement rush to make political hay, including Wisconsin's Derrick Van Orden, with some even calling for retribution against progressives and the news media when the killers motives are still unknown. This is both dangerous, and distracts attention from lack of gun laws and mental health interventions to make the public safer. Turning to much better news, we focus on the organized fight back against factory farm pollution in Western Wisconsin by local residents with the support of (GROWW) Grassroots Organizing Western Wisconsin. We talk about the critical role this authentic brand of community organizing can play in rebuilding our democratic institutions. We announce Citizen Action's involvement in a Climate March at the State Capitol, Sunday, September 28th @ 12 Noon, which is to national climate actions around the country. Robert updates us on Caledonia residents pushing back against another data center and the politics behind it. We also discuss a federal court blocking enforcement of EPA Ozone Standards in Southeast Wisconsin. Why is a Democratic AG siding with the business lobby? We take an early sneak peek at the 2026 elections, where more Democratic candidates have entered in the last month. Finally, the controversy continues on charges that Senate Democrats are picking primary candidates and trying to squelch competitive primaries.

This week, we're joined by Dr. Kevin J.P. Woods, cognitive neuroscientist and Director of Science at Brain.fm, to explore the science behind audio designed to do something: improve focus, enhance rest, and support attention regulation, especially for ADHD brains.Dr. Woods breaks down the neuroscience of “functional music,” explaining how Brain.fm uses phase-locking, neural oscillations, and lab-validated protocols to guide your brain toward desired cognitive states. We dig into why ADHD brains might respond especially well to this kind of auditory support—and how students and adults alike can use it to manage study sessions, reduce overwhelm, and even fall asleep more easily.If you've ever tried to study to lo-fi beats, felt overwhelmed by silence, or needed a reliable way to shift your brain into focus mode, this one's for you.Links & Notes

Episode 352 of RevolutionZ continues with chapters two and three of The Wind Cries Freedom. Alexandra Voline tells about going from despair to determination, from her parent's activism to her own revolutionary conviction. Born to 1960s radicals, politics was "background noise" until Trump's election added passion to knowledge. Alexandra describes how giving a speech against war-making at a defense plant taught her a painful but enduring lesson. Her self-righteous rage alienated the very workers she needed to reach. To organize effectively she had to develop empathy, not just display moral certainty.Malcolm King relates his experiences of electoral politics. He learned from Bernie Sanders that dissidents could run viable campaigns, raise money without corporate cash, and inspire volunteer armies. Sanders challenged traditional fatalism. He opened possibilities many had stopped believing in. Malcolm asked, "If you believe the system is rotten to its core, but you don't believe it can be changed, what exactly are you doing?"The episode's interviewees also conveyed their understanding of Trump's appeal. They recognized that while racism and sexism were factors, many working people supported Trump because they had been abandoned by a political establishment that ignored their suffering. Effective organizing would require addressing economic devastation alongside fighting gender and racial oppression. They discussed as well fear and overcoming it. These interviewees report that their organization, Revolutionary Participatory Society, emerged when activists began thinking strategically rather than performatively—asking not "what makes me feel pure right now" but "what builds power for the future." As Alexandra put it, "Justice isn't a pie that we divide. It's a flame that we grow."The Wind Cries Freedom is an oral history of how people like you, perhaps even your alter-ego in another time and place, won extraordinary change through their vision, strategy, and uncompromising solidarity. Human stories to reveal revolutionary lessons--with more to come. Support the show

In this episode of The President's Daily Brief: First—President Donald Trump, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky, and a coalition of European leaders struck an optimistic note about the prospects of ending Russia's war on Ukraine during an unprecedented gathering at the White House on Monday. Later in the show—Hungary lashes out at Kyiv, accusing Ukraine of mounting what they called an "outrageous and unacceptable" attack that disabled a Russian oil pipeline supplying the NATO ally. Plus—a growing number of Palestinians are reportedly turning on Hamas and preparing for a future without the terror group in power. But as the discontent spreads, Hamas is striking back with brutal violence against their own civilians, executing critics wherever they find them. In our 'Back of the Brief—the bromance between Vladimir Putin and Kim Jong Un deepens, as the Russian strongman sends a personal letter to Kim heaping praise on what he called the "heroic" efforts of North Korean troops fighting in Ukraine. The two belligerent powers have vowed to expand their military ties to forge a "just and multi-polar world order."
