Parrots are instinctually busy-bodies. In their natural habitat, they are nomadic and have very few limitations on the ways they can physically interact with their living space. This is how they will live within your home unless you clearly establish where you want them to go and how you want them to do it.This requires consistent positive reinforcement training. The endgame being allowing your parrot to be out in the house in a way that is harmonious with you and your family's lifestyle. You can accomplish this by showing your parrot that existing with boundaries is a rewarding experience for both of you.Stationing is the practice of training your parrot to be placed somewhere and stay there. We'll discuss why stationing is so crucial to the success of your bird longterm. There should be a minimum of three stations in your home that are designated bird-friendly spaces: the enclosure, your hand, and a third space such as a play stand that has been outfitted with a great deal of enrichment.So, how do we get the parrot to identify that an area is a safe space for them to behave like the bird they are? Participation and treats! Engage with your bird and fill that space with things that will instantly appeal to them: foraging toys, chew toys, enrichment, enrichment, enrichment. Think you have enough enrichment? Add more. In the world of bird care, when it comes to enclosure space and enrichment the rule of thumb is always the more, the better. The more enriching a space, the less likely they are to want to leave it. Building boundaries does not require a lot of effort, but it does require consistency and knowledge. Creating a happy living space for you and your parrot should not be approached like a mystery to be unraveled but rather an agreement you make with your bird to take part in a strategy for success. Having a step-by-step plan behind how to approach communicating expectations is necessary for a fulfilling experience with your bird.In this episode, we discuss what it means to have a successful strategy for establishing boundaries and ultimately how doing so sets clear expectations for your parrot when it comes to their behavior.So, join us as we dig into how having boundaries with your bird will make both of your lives together infinitely better. Because the goal isn't just to live with your parrot, but to live well!Links: Visit Us: https://www.parrotstars.com Parrot Stars on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/parrotstars/ Parrot Stars on TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@parrot_stars Parrot Stars on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@parrotstars Support the Parrot Stars Podcast: https://www.buzzsprout.com/2376122/supportFollow the Parrot Stars Podcast wherever you get your podcasts so you never miss an episode.

Welcome to the show and today my guest is another Yorkshire resident Mr John Savage. John is well known on the show and Lardy Day circuit for putting on high quality, fun participation games and we spend the final section of the show talking about those games and getting some tips for putting them on ourselves. Before that there is all the usual mayhem of a "normal" episode. John has been seen doing some Big Game Napoleonics recently so we use the Big Game section of the show to discuss that and also add a new meaning to the phrase "Full Leipzig" The next episode could be anything ! But the main thing is there will be one and it will be free !  Until next time Sithee Regards Ken The Yarkshire Gamer

Harding's Landslide and the Imprisoned Socialist — David Pietrusza — Socialist candidate Eugene Debsconducted his presidential campaign from Atlanta Penitentiary, where he was incarcerated for speaking against American participation in World War I. The 1920 election produced an overwhelming Republican victory, with Harding capturing 60% of the popular vote and 404 electoral votes through a meticulously orchestrated front-porch campaign strategy. Harding, who died in 1923 from an acute heart attack, was widely mourned by the American public, suggesting he was a substantially more competent and successful administrator than his subsequent historical reputation indicates. 1922 HARDING

In this episode, Brian Miller and Chad Hall share seven practical and relational ways to find new coaching clients. Their conversation blends mindset, strategy, and faith—reminding listeners that building a coaching practice is less about marketing gimmicks and more about authentic relationships, service, and attentiveness to where God is already at work. Whether you're just starting out or seeking to grow your client base, this episode offers actionable insights to help you move forward with confidence and purpose. Key Highlights Referrals from existing clients are the most natural and effective way to gain new clients—make it easy for them by describing who you want to work with. Referrals from non-clients (like community leaders or church contacts) can be equally valuable when you've built trust and credibility. Publishing—through blogs, podcasts, or ebooks—helps increase visibility but works best when it serves the client's needs, not your ego. Presenting at local events, workshops, or online gatherings positions you as a helpful expert and naturally draws interested clients. Prayerfulness grounds your efforts, helping you discern where God is opening doors and aligning your work with His purpose. Takeaways Serve before selling. The best marketing for coaching is genuine service—offering value and care to others. Ask directly. Many clients come simply because you invited them—don't assume people will approach you first. Stay active in your community. Participation builds trust, connection, and opportunities for meaningful engagement. Keep your posture humble and relational. Avoid transactional tactics like referral fees—focus on creating goodwill. Pray with expectation. Trust that God is already at work preparing opportunities; your role is to notice and join in.

RootHub (aka Aloha) weaves the core values and shared struggle of building Black Rock City and his work in Hawai‘i. He draws inspiration from the Hawaiian people's concept of kuleana (responsibility to the land and community).When he's not building BRC with DPW, or playing music to amplify people's stories, he's diverting food waste from landfills and incinerators into much needed, nutrient-dense soil for growing food. He does this through his companies. The names say it all:· Full Circle Solutions Hawaii· Leftover Love Company ("We love your leftovers")Hear how ingenuity learned on the playa—along with a sense of humor—allows him to overcome hurdles and create meaningful change in BRC and in Hawai'i, even with the naive tourists.Through sweet story and song, he shares how to combine innovation with tradition, to lift the stone without lifting the weight of the stone.roothub.comleftoverloveco.comfullcirclesolutionshi.comburningman.org/black-rock-city/infrastructure/dept-of-public-works LIVE.BURNINGMAN.ORG

Marten Lodewijks considers the reasons for falling global alcohol consumption, noting that people are drinking less often and drinking less when they do. “Participation rate amongst Gen Z has been trending upwards for the past few years,” he notes, saying that maybe the generation is “late to the party” because of Covid-19 and economic pressures. He also discusses how Gen Z has more options for drinks and they approach consumption in a different way.======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.Options involve risks and are not suitable for all investors.

In the next column, write who told you that.Participation is greater than Performance: Replace projection with tangible contribution each week.How to reduce duplicity, align inner values with outer behavior, and build calmWhy listen: If you're a leader or operator in New York / NYC or any fast-moving market, this episode gives you a repeatable approach to rebuild worth from the inside out—without abandoning ambition.Subscribe, rate, and review on Apple/Spotify.
