Most people have self-limiting beliefs that they are not good enough or worthy enough for something (or someone). This causes them to act according to this belief system. The American Society of Training and Development (ASTD) did a study on accountability for people trying to reach a goal. Here's what they found: The probability of you completing a goal IF: -You have an idea of wanting to lose weight: 10% -You consciously decide or declare you will do it: 25% -You decide WHEN you will do it: 40% -You plan HOW you will do it: 50% -You commit to someone you will do it: 65% -You commit financially that you will do it and have specific accountability appointments with the person or coach you committed to: 95% What's a self-limiting belief you have? Do you tell yourself you aren't cut out for it? Like you can't be good enough? It's important to distinguish between something that is important vs something that is essential to you. Self-sabotaging happens when there's a mismatch between our values and our behavior. Listen in as Sue and Alex discuss how your self-limiting beliefs could be holding you back from your goals, common struggles or objections when looking for an online coach, and how to vet coaches so you find the best coach for YOU.

本集節目由【AOHi 240W 閃電速拼線】贊助播出 每次出遠門最困擾的我事情之一就是「到底要帶幾條充電線」，如今只需要靠一條抵八條的「AOHi 240W 閃電速拼線」。 AOHi 由 10 公分的 Type-C、10 公分的 Lightning、80 公分的 Type-C 延長線，以及 170 公分的 Type-C 彈簧延長線所構成，共可組出八種變化，符合各種使用情境，例如飯店房間總是距離床頭很遠的插座。 除了長度與可組合性，線材最重要的當然是效能。最近我才發現手上很多舊的 Type-C 充電線並不支援快充，而 AOHi 不僅高達 240W，也支援 PD 3.1、QC、PPS 等多種快充協議，更搭載蘋果 MFi 認證的 E-Mark 晶片。 最後，AOHi 採用鋁合金完整包覆線頭，且線材的內層線路加粗 5mm，就是要讓線材有高回彈、耐重壓、不易變形破裂的品質。外層則是有 Kevlar 混織尼龍材質，提供強韌的保護，也大大提升線材的質感。 「AOHi 240W 閃電速拼線」正在早鳥優惠限時預購中，曼報聽眾享有比早鳥更優惠的「65 折專屬價」，比未來售價現省 $1,390，推薦大家把握機會入手：https://r.zecz.ec/szC5 -- 00:00 兩萬訂閱感謝祭回顧 06:22 創作的定義與動力 31:38 曼報煉成術：選題、研究、分析 -- 商業合作報價：https://manny-li.com/sponsor/ 訂閱電子報：https://manny-li.com 追蹤 IG：@manny_li 追蹤 FB：manny yh li Powered by Firstory Hosting

On today's show Erin interviews Lynne Becker, MSPH, a biostatistician & epidemiologist with more than 25 years of experience in clinical trials about her platform, Power of Patients, which focuses on empowering patients and caregivers with a free personalized app to track their symptoms and triggers. Power of Patients uses a virtual dog, Sallie (modeled after a real therapy dog!) to help people with brain injuries easily track their symptoms and triggers, alert their medical team of changes, and provide them with suggested clinical trials that may be applicable. This program was born out of a desire to increase the amount of data providers have access to, to understand TBI better, and to establish more clinical research after both of her daughters experienced TBIs. Lynne began looking for clinical trials so her daughters could access evidence-based treatment approaches and found the options were lacking. One of the goals of Power of Patients is to expand upon research so that more trends can be understood and more people can be helped in real-time in a simple, fun way. Anyone listening can see what Power of Patients has the potential to do for individuals and the healthcare system. Having this data warehouse and tracking system is transformational not only for those with TBI but also other conditions like long-haul Covid, MS, PD, stroke, etc. Check out this episode so you can share this amazing tool with your patients and colleagues! lynne@powerofpatients.com IG @ powerofpatients  Overview of Sallie: https://youtu.be/J8ZTtsMRCvg Website: https://www.powerofpatients.com/ Please email us at info@neurocollaborative if you're interested in learning how to write up a case report!

Via libera della Commissione Ue alla revisione del Pnrr italianoLa Commissione europea ha dato oggi una valutazione positiva alle modifiche del Piano nazionale di ripresa e resilienza dell'Italia, che comprende un capitolo REPowerEU. Il piano vale ora 194,4 miliardi di euro (122,6 miliardi di euro di prestiti e 71,8 miliardi di euro di sovvenzioni) e prevede 66 riforme, sette in più rispetto al piano originale, e 150 investimenti. Il capitolo REPowerEU dell'Italia comprende cinque nuove riforme, cinque investimenti potenziati basati su misure esistenti e 12 nuovi investimenti per realizzare gli obiettivi del piano REPowerEU di rendere l'Europa indipendente dai combustibili fossili russi ben prima del 2030. Queste misure si concentrano sul rafforzamento delle reti di trasmissione e distribuzione dell'energia elettrica, sicurezza energetica e accelerazione della produzione di energia rinnovabile. Sono inoltre coperte le misure volte a ridurre la domanda di energia, ad aumentare l'efficienza energetica, a creare e rafforzare le competenze necessarie per la transizione verde, nonché a promuovere il trasporto sostenibile. Il Pnrr modificato comprende 145 misure nuove o riviste e copre le misure previste dal capitolo REPowerEU. Queste misure mirano a rafforzare le riforme chiave in settori quali la giustizia, gli appalti pubblici e il diritto della concorrenza. Una serie di investimenti nuovi o potenziati mirano a promuovere la competitività e la resilienza dell'Italia, nonché a promuovere la transizione verde e digitale. Questi investimenti riguardano settori quali l'energia rinnovabile, le catene di approvvigionamento verdi e le ferrovie. Nonostante questo via libera, però, aumentano le voce critiche nei confronti del governo per la gestione del Pnrr. Roberto Rustichelli, presidente dell'Autorità Garante per la Concorrenza e il Mercato, ad esempio, nel suo intervento agli Stati generali della Ripartenza organizzati dall'Osservatorio economico e sociale 'Riparte l'Italia' a Bologna. "Non siamo in grado di completare quanto annunciato per il Pnrr, mi assumo la responsabilità di quanto dico". "Nello scenario macroeconomico internazionale, le debolezze strutturali dell'economia italiana ci portano a lanciare nuove sfide - aggiunge Rustichelli - Siamo in un momento in cui registriamo meno crescita e più inflazione, fra sfide interne e internazionali". Sulla stessa linea anche il presidente della Regione Emilia-Romagna e del Pd, Stefano Bonaccini: "Sono preoccupato, verranno qui molti ministri, provate a fare loro una domanda 'quanto siamo in ritardo sul Pnrr'?". "Vedo un Paese che rischia di mancare un appuntamento irripetibile, cioè quello di avere a disposizione oltre 200 miliardi di euro" del Pnrr che sommati ai Fondi Strutturali 2021-27 e ai Fondi Sviluppo e Coesione arrivano "a superare i 300 miliardi di euro complessivi", aggiunge Bonaccini. Ne parliamo con Carlo Altomonte, Direttore PNRR Lab, SDA Bocconi, e membro CD Fondazione M&M.

축구대표팀 클린스만호가 북중미 월드컵을 향한 대장정을 쾌조의 2연승을 시작했습니다. 2경기에서 8골에 무실점. 특히 주장 손흥민은 A매치 3경기 연속골을 터트렸고, 최근 기량이 급성장한 이강인은 4경기 연속 공격포인트를 기록했습니다. 2차 예선의 최대 고비로 꼽힌, 중국 원정 경기를 하루 앞두고 손흥민이 던진 출사표 그대로였습니다. 손흥민은 한중전 대비 최종 훈련을 마치고 "중국 만원 관중 앞에서 우리가 어떤 축구를 하는지 보여주자, 숨도 못 쉬게 만들자"라며 동료들의 투지를 일깨웠는데, 그야말로 차원이 다른 경기력과 품격을 보여줬습니다. 야유와 레이저 공격을 딛고 2골에 도움 1개를 기록하며 3대 0 완승을 이끌었고, 경기가 끝난 뒤엔 마지막까지 경기장에 남아 중국 팬들의 환호에 박수로 화답했습니다. 이번 주 축덕쑥덕에선 클린스만호 이야기를 중심으로 프랑스에서 '앙리호'를 격침한 '황선홍호' 소식과 FIFA 17세 이하 월드컵에 나선 태극전사 도전기를 전합니다. 주영민 기자와 주시은 아나운서, 이정찬 기자, 박진형 PD가 함께했습니다.

In this episode, Dr. Noel Sepulveda discusses how he is passionate about making chiropractic services accessible to all.  A lifelong resident of Bridgeport with deep ties in the community, Dr. Sepulveda knew he wanted to be a doctor from an early age; he just had to figure out how he was going to make that happen.  Through grit and determination, Dr. Sepulveda served as a barber for four hours during the day, worked the graveyard shift at UPS till 4am and slept in his car so he'd be on time for class at the University of Bridgeport's School of Chiropractic.  At the University of Bridgeport, he studied under board certified neurologists, acupuncturists, nutritionists and orthopedic diplomates. Dr. Sepulveda specialties include neuromusculoskeletal conditions, rehabilitation, postural correction, orthotics, ergonomics, pain management, weight management programs, lifestyle management, nutritional intervention for chronic disease and other physical medicine practices. Prior to the podcast recording, Dr. Sepulveda was on site as part of Peralta Design's focus on corporate wellness by offering a 15 min chiropractic session for all PD associates.

Culture, specifically, organizational culture. It's part cliché, part elusive whale, and part obsession. We all work (or have worked in my case) within schools or educational organizations which have a culture and we all know how powerfully that culture influences what happens within the school. The cliché: Culture is the key to a great school The elusive whale: What is school culture? The obsession: How can we create a culture of learning? Today, I will unpack for you the secrets of school culture. I guarantee after you listen to this show, you will have a clearer understanding of what school culture is, why it is so powerful, and – best of all – how you can build a better school culture. It isn't easy, but it is, I promise you, simple.Summarizing (The big takeaway) If you want to improve your culture: support and grow your teachers. For example:·      Stop telling them how to get better. Change the culture by revamping your teacher evaluation and PD systems. Facilitate discussions in which teachers identify their pain points and they tell you about their goals for creating a stronger classroom. This change hits every aspect of your organization:o   Changes the purpose of leadership from controlling to servingo   Changes the structures around the evaluation process from compliance to critical o   Changes the structures of observation and post-conferencing o   Reallocates resources as we focus on meaningful coaching and PD I'm not saying your current purpose, structures, resources and teacher improvement strategies are a dumpster fire. I know how hard you work and how much thought you put into helping your teachers grow. What I am saying is this:·      If you are telling your teachers where they need to grow, instead of helping them address pain points they want to treat, there is friction.·      If your evaluation system is not part of a long-term systemic approach to helping teachers improve their craft, then evaluation creates friction.·      If teachers are required to attend PD they see as irrelevant, at the cost of attending PD they want, that PD is creating friction. I know there are many things you do not control, and the evaluation system is probably one of them. However, can you:·      Ask teachers “If you could get students to do one thing differently, what would it be?”·      And then help them define what that would look like and sound like?·      Could we then, in our formal observation, make sure we were capturing some of the data related to the thing we want students to do differently”?·      Could we, in our formal post-observation conference, map a plan for how we can help that teacher create that change?·      Could we, follow up consistently in our future observations and PLCs? Yes, we can do all those things. It is simple, but it is not easy. You can hear me unpack that question about students doing one thing with 2nd-year AP Alex Auriemma in episode 177 from last week. So, now you know what school culture is. You know what makes it worse and what can make it better. What are you next steps? What do you do with this ne understanding? I don't actually suggest that you revamp your entire evaluation structure. That is an A-Z change. Here are two simple things you can do starting today:·      Ask that question, “If you could get students to do one thing differently, what would it be?” Informally of your teachers, and listen to their answers.·      Do more 5-minute coachingo   It reinforces that the purpose of leadership is to support and grow teachers.o   It creates an informal structure that makes that work easier for both leaders and teachers.o   And by going your full time and attention, even only for five minutes, it communicates to teachers that you are willing to invest important resources in their growth. Honestly, I'd like to dig into this even more – we are just scratching the surface. The 6D framework is the foundation of so much of the work I do and the practices I promote and teach about.Frederick's Links:Email: frederick@frederickbuskey.comWebsite: https://www.frederickbuskey.com/LinkedIn: http://www.linkedin.com/in/strategicleadershipconsultingDaily Email subscribe: https://adept-experimenter-3588.ck.page/ff61713840 

  How do you turn a lifelong passion for music, radio, and video games into a successful career in voice acting? Join me as I chat with Jim Fronk, a seasoned radio veteran who transitioned into voice acting, entertaining people with his dynamic performances and engaging characters.  But that's not all, Jim's talents extend beyond the microphone. He's also a whizz in website development, skills he's utilized to build successful websites for fellow voice actors. He delves deep into the magic of website creation, including the critical elements of a voiceover website and how you can create a one-page website in record time. Get ready to be inspired, entertained, and better yet, educated by Jim's wealth of knowledge and experience in the voice acting industry. Don't miss out! About Jim Jim has always been creative and secretively a tech geek. While working at radio stations, he gravitated towards graphic arts and webmaster duties. Through the years he created websites, not only for some of his ventures but for other radio friends and their DJ/entertainment side hustles. When Jim entered the VO world, he was amazed at how much it cost to have a basic cookie-cutter website built for a voice actor. So Jim created his 3-Hour Learn-By-Doing Website Creation Class. For a fraction of the cost, he teaches you how to create, update, and expand your own VO website as your business expands.

Now let's welcome your host, Anne Ganguzza.  00:20 - Anne Ganguzza (Host) Hey everyone, welcome to the V-O Boss podcast. I'm your host, Anne Ganguzza, and today I am very excited to be here with a very special guest, our 20-plus year radio vet turned voice actor, Jim Fronk. Oh, thanks for having me. Oh, jim, jim, jim, let me just tell the listeners a little bit about you, oh by all means.  00:40 I'm glad that you were so excited. Thank you for being here, jim. Let me tell our listeners a little bit about you. You've been behind the microphone in your happy place since you were 10, the tender age of 10. And since then, jim has been acting and singing his way into our hearts, doing improv, stand-up comedy, live, announcing, djing on air, and now he's in his very own 5x8 padded closet capturing our hearts. So, jim, thank you, thank you, thank you for being here with us today.  01:10 - Jim Fronk (Guest) Well, thank you, I'm glad that I'm padded, because the funny thing is I got out of radio because it got so impersonal. I started voice tracking and I was on nine different stations, six different states, at the same time, and I was just in a 10x10 room recording and I'm sick of that, so I ended up in a 5x8 room.  01:28 - Anne Ganguzza (Host) Now a 5x8. Yeah, somehow that's smaller, so okay, but it's padded, so that's better.  01:33 - Jim Fronk (Guest) And this is my happy place. I love being here, I love playing behind the microphone. So I started at 10 years old singing. My dad always said that I would either be a politician or a radio disc jockey. Because of my gift of gab and the way that I like to spin the truth now and then, what would you sing?  01:50 - Anne Ganguzza (Host) That's my question. What genre would you sing? Jazz, you sing in classic rock.  01:54 - Jim Fronk (Guest) Classic rock for the most part.  01:56 - Anne Ganguzza (Host) Classic rock yeah.  01:58 - Jim Fronk (Guest) Actually back in 2000,. I was Ed McMahon's nextbigstarcom winner of the rock category. What did you sing? I sang Better Roses by Bon Jovi.  02:07 - Anne Ganguzza (Host) Oh, my God. Of course, at least she sang Bon Jovi. I was just going to say I'm thinking, bob Seeger, I don't know why. I've done some Bob. Yeah, I've done some Bob Seeger, I like the doors, yeah.  02:16 - Jim Fronk (Guest) I like the doors, my go-to when the bands are playing and they're like hey, come on up and sing. My go-to is Roadhouse Blues.  02:22 - Anne Ganguzza (Host) Oh God, if we are lucky bosses, we might get to hear, I don't know, a bar or two.  02:27 - Jim Fronk (Guest) Maybe if you go to Uncle Roy's this year or maybe actually if you went to Uncle. Roy's next year. I'll talk to them.  02:33 - Anne Ganguzza (Host) Next year. Oh yeah, hey, I personally have never heard you sing and I would absolutely love to hear you sing.  02:39 - Jim Fronk (Guest) You might be able to YouTube something Just saying there might be some poison out there.  02:44 - Anne Ganguzza (Host) Before we talk a little bit more about your journey into voiceover, because you've had such a long history behind the mic, I need to ask you about the 7.36 pounds of shelled blue peanut M&Ms that you requested from me in my little inquiry into hey, you want to be a podcast guest? What do you require? And so you asked me for shelled blue peanut M&Ms, and I could only find the brown ones.  03:08 - Jim Fronk (Guest) And yet they're still not here.  03:10 - Anne Ganguzza (Host) Somehow, oh, but they're virtually here.  03:11 - Jim Fronk (Guest) Oh, virtually Okay, great, I don't know. I was just trying to think of something weird to put on there that I need, because I really don't need anything.  03:20 - Anne Ganguzza (Host) I'm actually kind of hungry for some M&Ms. But, Jim, it's already been a wonderful five minutes chatting with you. I can't wait to dive deeper into your journey. So share with our listeners how your journey kind of got to be 20 plus years behind the mic doing radio. How did you get there? As a small child you were singing, right. Were you singing classic rock at the age of 10?  03:43 - Jim Fronk (Guest) Well, I was singing what was considered just normal pop music, I guess, yeah, and then classic rock was just music, but I did that. But when I got into school I really got into mixing things and I was making mixtapes before mixtapes were a thing.  03:59 - Anne Ganguzza (Host) I made mixtapes. I remember them.  04:01 - Jim Fronk (Guest) I was scratching records so things would skip at a certain point and you put a quarter on top, make a knot skip. No-transcript, Mr Jaws, Dr Demento.  04:11 - Anne Ganguzza (Host) Oh God, yes, I might be dating myself here, but I listen to Dr Demento every Sunday evening. Love Dr.  04:16 - Jim Fronk (Guest) Demento oh my God my favorite show. But they always had Mr Jaws. It was kind of like Mr Jaws, so why are you here? Right now, and then it'd be a song, so I used to try to do those myself.  04:27 - Anne Ganguzza (Host) And Delilah. I listened to Delilah too. Delilah yes, yeah, delilah's on the air forever. But then I got into radio.  04:33 - Jim Fronk (Guest) When I was in high school, I was at a party.  04:35 - Anne Ganguzza (Host) Okay.  04:36 - Jim Fronk (Guest) I was a senior, it was a junior's party. He was trying to be class president and I was just there being me. I mean, I am your extrovert, you know I talk to everybody, I say hi to everybody. It gets me in trouble sometimes, but whatever. But I was just being me and this guy walked up and said hey, listen, I'm the lawyer of this small little cable radio station downtown Woburn, which is my hometown. He goes do you want to try out? Okay, so I went home the next day. I got my Peter Brady tape recorder. We have to hold down the record and you know what I'm talking about.  05:04 - Anne Ganguzza (Host) I know exactly. I used one of those in college when I was recording textbooks on tape. Oh, there you go. I know the realistic. Or it was a Panasonic, I can't remember.  05:13 - Jim Fronk (Guest) I think it was realistic because I did have a radio shack within walking distance and my transistor was in there. Everybody did.  05:19 - Anne Ganguzza (Host) Wait, I'm sorry, but we're just going all over the place. So my brothers are very much into Heath Kits, heath Kits, heath Kits. Yeah, building electronics Like we did that from Radio Show. Oh my God, they would just build their own little like transistor radios and stuff.  05:29 - Jim Fronk (Guest) I never got into that but I mean, as I got into radio I did get my engineering junior engineering badge from the engineering people, but whatever. So I went home the next day I had my Peter Brady tape recorder and I had my Precorp eight track player, my stereo system at home, and yes, I'm name dropping here. With Precorp I put in Led Zeppelin and you know I talked out of a Led Zeppelin song and I had to wait because you couldn't rewind eight tracks so you only had one take. Well, you had to wait for the next song. It took me all afternoon to get like three intros and three outros and I ended up getting the gig, which was kind of cool. They made me change my name. They didn't want anybody to know that a high school kid was working at school, but yet they gave me like one of those shiny, flashy 80s type of radio jackets with my name on it and the call letters and I did J at all the high school functions and things. So everybody knew.  06:21 - Anne Ganguzza (Host) Can I ask what name they gave you? I was Jumping.  06:23 - Jim Fronk (Guest) Jim Jacobs.  06:25 - Anne Ganguzza (Host) All right, Jumping Jim. This just came to me. Jumping Jim.  06:27 - Jim Fronk (Guest) Jacobs, 935-3378, wlhg. Wow, larry Habar Enterprises. I love it. Larry lives two towns away from me right now. We had lunch about a month ago. The owner of the station.  06:39 - Anne Ganguzza (Host) Now explain to me. So you just were fascinated. Did you listen to the radio all the time? I loved radio. And then you were just mimicking all the DJs because the DJs got all the chicks. Apparently that's what it was back in the 80s anyways.  06:51 - Jim Fronk (Guest) Yeah, have you heard of Dale Dorman? He's a Boston guy from KISS, but Dale Dorman and one other guy I forget his name, but they invented top 40 radio. They were at a bar one night and they watched people put quarters in to hear the same 15, 20 songs all night long Sure.  07:05 - Anne Ganguzza (Host) That makes sense, so they made that format.  07:07 - Jim Fronk (Guest) And Dale Dorman was also on the local TV station as hey, kiddies, that after school type of thing, and I just loved the guy and I just wanted to be him, I wanted to do what he did and I just set focus on it and I ended up doing it. I met Dale Dorman. The program director of the small station I worked for was the assistant PD of KISS 108 Boston and that's where Dale Dorman was, and she brought us in for a program meeting and God, my mind was just blown at that point and I said this is what I need to do. Got out of high school, I went to college for it, went to school for it, interned, did many, many years, and it was like here.  07:43 I am learning from these people that I think are phenomenal but, they're teaching because they can't make ends meet. So I got out of radio for about 10 years 15 years, and I did stand up comedy and I always talked about getting on the air again, because if I'm doing morning radio, I can't hear them not laughing when. I tell jokes, I just play a soundtrack. So I turned 35 and I said, you know, what Everybody laughs then yeah, exactly.  08:08 I turned 35 and said I have to do this, so I just put everything else aside and I did it.  08:14 - Anne Ganguzza (Host) Now let me ask you, because you said most of the people couldn't afford working in radio, so they were teachers. Is that always been the case in radio? Is it always been? Maybe not the best paying gig, but the people in radio love radio. I mean, it's just.  08:27 - Jim Fronk (Guest) It's like being in an abusive relationship. It really is.  08:31 - Anne Ganguzza (Host) It slaps you around and I'll tell you. It's like podcasting I'm gonna say because for me, I'm gonna tell you that podcasting is my radio show. In a way it really is.  08:41 - Jim Fronk (Guest) The only difference is I was waking up at 2.30 quarter of 3 every morning to get my butt whipped every day.  08:46 - Intro (Other) But yeah, it's definitely a passion.  08:48 - Jim Fronk (Guest) You hear that word passion with VO. It's the same thing with radio. It was just something that I needed to do. I needed to have that live interaction and as far as the money goes, it's kind of like VO.  08:58 - Intro (Other) It depends what market that you're being planned in.  09:01 - Jim Fronk (Guest) I was doing mornings in Nashua, new Hampshire, which is about 30 miles away from Boston, as the crow flies, about a 40 minute trip. My salary compared to somebody doing the exact same thing on the exact same type of station, they probably were about five or six times more than I was making Just the average guy. Now if you became a star then you're up in the quarter of a million dollars in Boston market but not in Nashua. But I loved it and you got the perks I mean I'd go to concerts, I'd be backstage, at concerts.  09:30 My favorite thing was going on stage and throwing t-shirts out at people and saying, hey, I'm frog from Frank 106 or from 104.9 the Hawk, and people scream and they know me and I just love that. I really love that.  09:43 Just being a part of the community. I was very fortunate that the morning show I did for 106, 3 Frank FM I was part of the community. I would announce football games. My daughter did cheerleading but I would announce the popcorn of football games and I would go and people would know who I was. But I was very active in the community and I'd love that. I love being known.  10:01 - Anne Ganguzza (Host) You were like a local celebrity.  10:03 - Jim Fronk (Guest) Yeah, but I was able to take that celebrityism and put it to good work as opposed to evil Like I did back in the 90s. Oh sorry.  10:12 - Anne Ganguzza (Host) And that's another podcast.  10:14 - Jim Fronk (Guest) Yeah, I don't think the ever straining owners are up yet for that one, so we really can't talk about it.  10:18 - Anne Ganguzza (Host) Well, now 20 years in radio, 20 years 20 plus, yeah Now did you say you were doing synonyms, that you were doing radio, and then you went into comedy, or how did that work?  10:28 - Jim Fronk (Guest) I was doing comedy. First I was a wedding DJ, function DJ, when karaoke was all the buzz. I got my own karaoke company. I had like 35 shows.  10:38 - Anne Ganguzza (Host) Look at you being a boss entrepreneur at a young age. I mean bosses, and why you to listen to this? All of the people that come on the show, I mean they're entrepreneurs in so many ways, and that was so creative. I mean, jim, first of all, just being in high school right, and going after your dreams and having the bravery to go try out for the radio station and get the gig right At such a young age. And then you've got to be brave. Did you stand up comedy? That's for sure.  11:03 - Jim Fronk (Guest) You know stand up comedy. Five minutes can seem like 20 minutes. Yes, 20 minutes can seem like five minutes. It all depends on the energy of the crowd. But I tell you that first time I got up on stage, the very first time I was hosting a pretty big deal. It was at Berkeley, 5,000 seats. I was hosting it Not really hosting telling jokes, just kind of introducing people.  11:24 - Anne Ganguzza (Host) But I had a couple of jokes. I'm seeing kind of, yeah, I had a couple of jokes.  11:26 - Jim Fronk (Guest) That first joke I told, and when they laughed, that wave that hit me, that became my drug.  11:33 - Intro (Other) That became what I craved.  11:35 - Jim Fronk (Guest) That became what I had to accomplish on a Monday night up in Vermont for a slice of pizza, or a Tuesday doing an open mic night at the KFC in Volrica Mass. I mean, it's just, you did what you had to do, but it was again a passion for it.  11:49 - Anne Ganguzza (Host) Now okay. So, passion aside, I'm sure there were some jokes that probably didn't make it, and so did you experience like imposter syndrome. I mean I can only imagine Like I think stand up comedy's got to be one of the hardest skills. I mean it's like improv too. I feel like we all need it and it just really builds our character, because there's just so many things we have to be quick on our feet about. I'm sure that all of this is leading up to a really fabulous career in voiceover, because all of those skills have led up to who you are as an actor today.  12:21 - Jim Fronk (Guest) And as far as jokes bombing, I'm looking for a reaction. You can oh or boo or yeah. Hey, I got a reaction, and if something just didn't work, I really didn't care you laughed at it.  12:31 - Anne Ganguzza (Host) Oh well, that didn't work.  12:32 - Jim Fronk (Guest) Pretty much, yeah, I mean sometimes I'd make a joke about it and take a paper out of my pocket and say our fake paper and say okay, scratch that one off the list.  12:40 Yeah, that didn't work, whatever, yeah, okay, that doesn't work in Poughkeepsie, all right, fine. But yes, everything I've done coming up to this has helped me in VO. You know, the radio, yeah, has contributed the live stuff, the comedy, the improv and all that. I got out of radio back in 2018 because it was just impersonal to me. I wasn't doing mornings, I wasn't doing a talk show. I craved that interaction. I didn't like just talking up 15 seconds of a song coming out, absolutely. I mean, I'm great at trivia, music trivia. You know, you give me 10 seconds of any song from 1960 to 1992 and I can probably tell you what it is, but it just wasn't fulfilling. It wasn't satisfying. I did get into flying drones for a bit believe it or not, a friend of mine, that's random, it really is, but it was a passion, I flew a drone.  13:28 - Anne Ganguzza (Host) Radio VO drones.  13:29 - Jim Fronk (Guest) Yeah, well, I flew the drones and I loved it. I got a passion for it. I was making some great money doing cell tower inspections and infrared. At one point I had more money invested in drones than I did in Harley-Davidson's.  13:42 Or in your microphone maybe, or in my microphones. I'm even close. I'm completely. You know how many U87s Like. I sold one of my drones in two cameras and I bought my daughter a brand new Jeep. They were up there but it just wasn't what I wanted to do. I wanted to be behind the microphone. Okay, and a buddy of mine, AJ Duquette Actually I think you were on the show, a buddy of mine, aj Duquette, a radio guy. He's doing VO, and he told me about J Michael Collins and I was driving home year ago, april. I was driving home from New York City on Clubhouse and I think you were on it, j Michael, and I want to say Liz Atherton.  14:18 - Anne Ganguzza (Host) Oh, we've done yeah, we've done a bunch of yeah. And I asked the question.  14:21 - Jim Fronk (Guest) I just got my demos back and I was like, well, how do I know if I have a good demo? Yeah, and J Michael we talked afterwards and he went over it and gave me the good, the bad and the ugly and that just got me on the path of okay. So I'm going to talk to these people. I'm not going to be afraid to approach anybody. I'm very approachable and I'm going to approach as many people in this business that are where I want to be and it's been great. And that's my advice to everybody Don't be afraid to approach anybody, because if somebody's not approachable to you or if somebody doesn't want you to approach them, you don't want them in your circle. Why would you want them in your circle? You know, I like going to Dallas and seeing Ann Ganguza from down the hall and going Ann, and she's like jam. I mean, that's what it's all about Making connections, having some fun.  15:09 - Anne Ganguzza (Host) It's all about the relationships, really Absolutely about the relationships. So let's kind of continue on with the voice acting. So you got into voice acting around. You're saying around 2018?.  15:21 - Jim Fronk (Guest) Oh, no, no, no, I got into drones in 2018. Oh okay, excuse me, I actually celebrated two years in VO from when I started in September this past September. So it's been about two years, a month or two, but I got into it. I got some training. I did about five or six months with the training with a great coach, tim Powers, you've met.  15:38 - Anne Ganguzza (Host) Tim, actually I know Tim absolutely.  15:40 - Jim Fronk (Guest) Tim has become a great mentor and even a better friend. But from there I got my demos and, like I said, how do I know they're good? And I just started doing the marketing thing. I've since redone my demos. I'm a different animal now, different everything. I kind of went feet first and I thank my wife so much for that. We talk about not making money in radio.  16:01 - Anne Ganguzza (Host) We all know the struggles that actors have, and we are actors Not making money in voiceover.  16:06 - Jim Fronk (Guest) Yeah, I mean just acting alone.  16:08 God bless my wife. She's very successful in the pharmaceutical business. So when the time came, we sat down and talked and she said, when we first met, I was making $5,000 a year less than you and you were in radio. And I'm like I know, but we have flipped the switch. She's gone so far. So she said do what you want to do. Invest what you need to invest. Get the right equipment. You know what you need. You've been in the business. You can build radio stations. Get what you need. So I did. And here I am two years later and I'm getting clients, I'm booking gigs, I'm doing animation, video games, e-learning. It's been great.  16:42 - Anne Ganguzza (Host) What would you say your favorite genre to work in is Because I'm always a big proponent of people bring their experience to behind the mic and I feel like maybe your stand-up comedy, your DJing, your networking I feel like that all works for you in specific genres Well, animation, I love.  17:01 - Jim Fronk (Guest) I love playing in animation. Right now I've got the allergies going on so my voice is kind of right now, but I love being able to just pop into a character and be like my mind is now melted, I'm with 3.0 and I will reveal the world. I mean, just have some fun. Word, of course I will. I am the evil. I am Ludo the evil one. I just love having fun with that. Video games I love the acting.  17:23 - Anne Ganguzza (Host) I love the cinematography and the acting.  17:26 - Jim Fronk (Guest) I trained with Dave.  17:27 - Anne Ganguzza (Host) Fornoy yes he's amazing.  17:29 - Jim Fronk (Guest) Yes, and once again people say how'd you train with Dave Fornoy? Yeah, I asked, I asked, I went to his website and I booked some sessions. And there we are. Dave's a great friend now, I mean he's become such a great mentor.  17:43 So I love video games. You know what I really love doing and I hate to say it because I have spent, I'm gonna say, $10,000 in training, maybe over the past couple of years, maybe even more. I hate to look at the numbers, but to beat the DJ out of me Every time that I step back into that DJ voice, my coach would say and now up here's the dealbies, just to snap me back. But I love doing tier three automotive.  18:03 - Anne Ganguzza (Host) Well, yeah, tier three, automotive, yeah, and tier of DJ, it's radio DJ delivery.  18:07 - Jim Fronk (Guest) It's what I do in my sleep, so I'm really loving doing that. Absolutely. I've been training with Chris Zellman. He's been great.  18:15 - Anne Ganguzza (Host) Yeah, tier three, automotive. I do a little bit of that myself, and it's not as easy as we want it to be, because they're really trying to cram a lot of words.  18:22 - Jim Fronk (Guest) But I was also production director of a six station cluster for many years. I was given the commercials away, so you know, so I know, and most of those were that type of delivery, yeah absolutely that sales delivery that hype. You know, no money down and you can. You know it's. Which is so 80s DJ. It's just ingrained in me so I do love that.  18:43 - Anne Ganguzza (Host) And so now we all have to be authentic, and maybe not for tier three auto still. However, talk to me about authenticity and how. Maybe your background having a radio show I feel like having a radio show, you know, maybe not by just announcing commercials or announcing what the next song is, but I think if you're doing like talk radio and you're really getting down in personal with your listeners, I feel like that helps you to be authentic and you can kind of call upon that experience to really help you be authentic in your commercial delivery or even narration delivery or e-learning delivery.  19:16 - Jim Fronk (Guest) Before I was doing morning radio it was just that hype. Morning radio was kind of hype but it was a lot more comedy. We did bits. It was always like Frank's place with Jim and so-and-so or you know the Jim and so-and-so morning show. So it was always my animal to drive my vehicle and just to have that interaction was very conversational. And I did talk radio for the last three or four years of my career with radio and that became very conversational. That's just raw me. So when I was able to unlock that again, because we all know talking conversational and just talking like we're talking now is natural.  19:54 You should be able to do that. It's easy. Yeah, it's easy.  19:57 - Anne Ganguzza (Host) But it's not easy when there's a piece of paper.  19:59 - Jim Fronk (Guest) Yeah, when it's a piece of paper in front of you and it's somebody else's words. You have to learn how to do that Absolutely. One of the things that helped and hindered me was my ability for live read. I love being the first guy in workshops. I love reading stuff cold. I can't tell you how many times I'd be on the air and somebody would give me a piece of paper and say, read this.  20:18 And I have the ability to read about five or six seconds ahead of what I'm saying, which was good for that, but I was disconnected from my words. I was on autopilot.  20:28 - Anne Ganguzza (Host) Any cold read is you're executing from left to right and you don't know what the story is.  20:33 - Jim Fronk (Guest) But even after I read it once or twice, I would still be reading ahead which hindered me to get that connectivity with the listener, with the client, with the audience. So when I learned to put that behind me and I'm gonna say live in the moment but read in the moment, be in the moment, my conversational game went up considerably and I think that I have a very conversational read when it is asked for that.  20:59 - Anne Ganguzza (Host) No sales, no announcers. That's right, no announcers. And that's getting the DJ and getting the radio beaten out of you.  21:05 - Jim Fronk (Guest) Yeah, but then I get to go back to tier three and have some fun with it. Yeah, and have your fun. Then, exactly, come on down. The price is really.  21:12 - Anne Ganguzza (Host) And I have roles in telephony that I can be as. Thank you for calling your call's important to us. I can be that fun, smooth, promo-y sound.  21:22 - Jim Fronk (Guest) That's a lot of fun, sometimes absolutely.  21:24 - Anne Ganguzza (Host) Yeah, for the most part, we're all about the authenticity. Speaking of authenticity, from a few of the things that you've already talked about, you were so into drones, you were into, like, video games I get this feeling, and from talking to you previously, that you are kind of a geek. You are a tech geek, and so that kind of leads you into yet another talent of yours, which is websites, and I wanna make sure that we have time to get into websites for voice actors and talk to us a little bit about your expertise number one and what got you into web development first of all. Then let's talk about what's important in a voice actor website.  22:02 - Jim Fronk (Guest) Well, for the most part with the radio stations. You wear many hats and I was brand manager and web guru and graphic artist. I know enough about Photoshop to get you and I in a lot of trouble, but not enough to really make any money at it. As far as-.  22:16 - Anne Ganguzza (Host) Except nobody uses Photoshop anymore. It's all Canva, Both yes. But yeah, no, I get it Photoshop was definitely a skill, I mean for sure, and when I was deciding.  22:26 - Jim Fronk (Guest) When I was getting out of the drones, I was actually going back and forth between VO and maybe going to school for graphic arts.  22:33 I really enjoy that. But I was thinking to myself you know, it's a three-year program, $36,000. I'll be 58 when I graduate. Do I really want to enter that type of field where I'm so far behind technology wise than the kids are these days? I said, you know, my happy place is behind the microphone. So that's what I did. Gotcha, every business that I've had, I've designed my own websites. I've used Wix my whole life. So when I say I'm a website builder, I'm a Wix master, is what I go by. There's just so much that's come along with website development. It's actually very user-friendly, but people need to be taught how to use it.  23:10 - Intro (Other) So when you say I'm a website developer.  23:12 - Jim Fronk (Guest) I'm more of a website instructor.  23:15 - Anne Ganguzza (Host) What.  23:15 - Jim Fronk (Guest) I like to do is I have something. It's a three-hour website. Do it yourself, learn by doing creation class, where we'll sit down together, you'll watch me on the screen and you'll mimic what I'm doing. I'll show you where I'm getting things. I'll teach you how to do things. So by the end of the three hours you should have a one-page voiceover specific website ready to go, ready to be hosted, and I'll go in there afterwards, because I'm always like an admin and I'll go in and I'll tighten things up and I'll put a little couple extra spinny effects and different things to make them happy. But I found that so many people didn't have the crucial items for a website, for a VO website and other people are charging 15, 16, $1,700 to build a website.  24:01 We're in a business. We're not making any money, but you have to have your online you know.  24:05 - Anne Ganguzza (Host) so Sure, absolutely, that's who you're marketing to.  24:07 - Jim Fronk (Guest) Exactly so. I try to help people learn how to do that so that they don't come back to me and say, hey, can you upload my new demos? No, they're gonna know how to upload their own demos. If they have a problem, I'm always here. I will build a website for somebody. It's twice the money, and when I'm done, if you need help, there'll be an hourly stipend to be your web guy.  24:30 I'd rather give you something that's cheaper, that takes me more time, but to teach you something. So that's what I'm doing. You can find that at websitesforvocom. It's very easy. I've designed other sites and gotten really deep, like Dave Fanoy, for instance. Dave has become a great friend, but his website was terrible no downloadable demos granted, he's Dave Fanoy, but still links that went to things that were expired event page that the latest event was 2019, it just wasn't conducive for somebody that's in the business. So I kind of owed him a favor. Dave became a really good friend. He helped me out. We started off by coaching. He helped me out directing my demo. He's helped me out with a lot of coaching. That was unexpected. So instead of sending him a bottle, what's a friend of mine said? Just send him a bottle and say thank you. I decided to a deep dive into his website and I completely revamped it. On Wix all of his scheduling You're a Wix person, I am a Wix person.  25:26 - Intro (Other) I've seen your schedule.  25:28 - Jim Fronk (Guest) I see, don't you love how it's all in the back?  25:30 - Anne Ganguzza (Host) door there. I love my Wix website your scheduling your payments, your tickets your events everything.  25:35 - Jim Fronk (Guest) So, Dave being a techie guy, a web guy, when I went to book my first gig with Dave it took me about 20 minutes to figure out and it was like email me.  25:44 - Anne Ganguzza (Host) There are some coaches out there that like well, email me for pricing or email me to get set up, and that to me is like why would you do that?  25:51 - Jim Fronk (Guest) Go to Venmo and do this here, and then I'll send you my Calendly link.  25:54 - Anne Ganguzza (Host) Yeah, exactly.  25:56 - Jim Fronk (Guest) So I went in, I took care of Dave's and I taught him how to do it. He's now putting on his own events and he's doing all the ticketing and all the ticket sales and all the marketing, all the social marketing, all in the back door of Wix. So I taught him that. I try to teach everybody that, because there are things you need of your website.  26:12 - Anne Ganguzza (Host) Yes, what are those things? Let's talk about those critical things.  26:16 - Jim Fronk (Guest) Number one downloadable demos Above the fold. Everything I'm talking about right now is above the fold. I've talked to a lot of agents, casting directors. They don't want to click, they don't want to scroll.  26:29 They don't want to look so right there, front and center, downloadable demos, ready to go. Your name, obviously, something that shows your personality. It's a logo, a picture, something that shows who you are and if we have some fun with it, have some fun with it. Your contact info should always be in the header so when they scroll, if they scroll, your contact info is always there.  26:52 - Anne Ganguzza (Host) It stays there it stays there.  26:54 - Jim Fronk (Guest) One of the main things that a lot of people don't have is a call to action button. Okay, I'm on your website, I'm the customer. Look at your website as a customer. I'm a customer, I found your website. I like your demos. What do I do? Now? There's a button there that says request a free audition. What's that all about? I mean, you and I, we all know auditions are free, of course. Well, all audition. You know we're not paying to audition. We're not getting paid to audition, but they don't know that.  27:21 - Anne Ganguzza (Host) Well, sometimes we do, sometimes we do, but they don't know that.  27:23 - Jim Fronk (Guest) But they're getting a complimentary free audition. Send me a 30-second snippet of your script and I'll send you back an audio sample of what it will sound like, performed by me, and I can't tell you six. I've gotten six jobs off of that, so far.  27:39 Contact me is not a call to action. Maybe you offer some other service. I think it was Mark Scott said something about. These are six ways to book me. You know, give them something, something that has some information, whether it's directly related to booking you or VO related, but have that call to action button. Those are the basic things. Everything else after that is fluff. You go to my website. I probably have 15, 16 pages.  28:05 - Intro (Other) I have some people actually write the SEO for me.  28:07 - Anne Ganguzza (Host) It's all fluff. It really is. There's nothing there. Let's talk about SEO.  28:12 - Jim Fronk (Guest) It's for SEO. What about SEO lately?  28:14 - Anne Ganguzza (Host) Is SEO worth anything at this point? Still, because of, let's say, generative AI, which is generating content in seconds. Now, all of a sudden, it used to mean something with our websites. Right, that we had identifying words and words that could be found, but I feel like that whole SEO pony might be changing a little bit as things start to evolve.  28:35 - Jim Fronk (Guest) It is changing, it's getting simpler for people.  28:38 - Intro (Other) And with a program like Wix.  28:39 - Jim Fronk (Guest) They actually have an SEO and, by the way, I don't get paid by Wix. I'm not endorsed by Wix, it's just what I know. I've tried Squarespace play buttons, a play button, rewinds, rewind, pictures, picture, but I just didn't like how the whole system worked together. Wix was very user friendly. If you can do Canva, you can create a website.  29:00 - Anne Ganguzza (Host) Canva changed the game.  29:01 - Jim Fronk (Guest) They really did. They made it.  29:03 - Anne Ganguzza (Host) Wix is changing the game and some people might say well, what in VO is changing the game? I mean, we could talk about that if we wanted to.  29:11 - Jim Fronk (Guest) How about that? So much in VO has changed the game.  29:13 - Anne Ganguzza (Host) Tell me about a VO actor. How can they change the game to make it successfully in voiceover and what can they do to change their game to make it and not be so afraid of all this technology that people are just, oh my God, the robots are gonna take our jobs away. Let's talk about-.  29:30 - Jim Fronk (Guest) No, they're not. The robots can't act, the robots can't change. What can we do there?  29:34 - Anne Ganguzza (Host) you go. We need to act right. They can't improv, they can't crack a good joke. Well, sometimes they crack dad jokes.  29:40 - Jim Fronk (Guest) Yeah, well.  29:41 - Anne Ganguzza (Host) But yeah.  29:43 - Jim Fronk (Guest) All right, so I got a lot of my dad jokes from chat. No, I'm just kidding.  29:46 What you can do is be authentic. Be human, show your range, show your emotion when you show up for a gig. Be the person that they wanna work with. Don't be the person that they're waiting on. Be fun, be happy. Don't be a nuisance to anybody that is hiring you or that you're working with, because you never know who's going to say, hey, Jim was here two months ago, He'd be great for this spot. You know, it could be the engineer you never know.  30:11 You have to have your online inline, which I try to help people do, because your website may not generate any business for you right off the bat, but you have to have that presence.  30:20 - Anne Ganguzza (Host) Yes, you absolutely have. It has to be something that's not wixitecom.  30:24 - Jim Fronk (Guest) Backslash, jimfrong55, it has to be Jimfrongcom. Jimfrongvocom, your name vocom. Sure and keep it simple. Keep those domain names simple so you're easily found Exactly.  30:36 I was gonna be Frank the voice. I had all these domain names that I was going to do. Jimfrong was available for the first time in a long time, cause I looked for it back when I was doing standup comedy. Jimfrong was available and I said you know what that's it? That's it. So I'm Jim and Jimfrong, so it's so easy to remember. You're double branding your name Absolutely. And as far as changing the game, talk to people, make friends, go to conferences. A lot of people in this business are introverts, but a lot are extroverts. You know, you get your naked gents, your Anganguza's, you get your Jim Fronks. We're out there saying hi to people. You know, kissing babies, shaking hands, whatever the case is. Get out there and say hi to people and if you're not that type of person, find someone that is, find me, make friends with me. I'm very approachable. You hate me or love me, but hopefully you love me and I'll introduce you to people, I don't care.  31:27 - Anne Ganguzza (Host) There you go, it's absolutely fun. Words of wisdom. Jim, Thank you for that. And actually, Jim, you have offered the bosses a little deal for your website creation class that you have.  31:40 - Jim Fronk (Guest) Oh, I have.  31:40 - Anne Ganguzza (Host) Yes, you have. Remember you wrote it down.  31:43 - Jim Fronk (Guest) Well, I was kind of upset about the PNNM's not being made.  31:46 - Anne Ganguzza (Host) But you're going to give our bosses 10% off the website creation class.  31:50 - Jim Fronk (Guest) I am absolutely without a doubt. What kind of coupon do you want to get?  31:53 - Anne Ganguzza (Host) We've got that promo called, called VEOBOSS10 at Chicago VEOBOSS10,. Okay, and we'll be putting that on our show notes pages, guys, so when you look up this episode, we will have that code available. Jim, thank you so much. It's been so exciting talking to you. I mean, you have such an amazing history. Yeah, I mean we're actually kind of 10 minutes over. See how time flies when you just have so much fun.  32:15 - Intro (Other) We're going to have to have you come back.  32:17 - Anne Ganguzza (Host) We're going to have to have you come back, jim. It's really been amazing and thank you for sharing your wisdom, your wonderful personality, your fun, amazing, just the fun.

Good morning from Pharma and Biotech Daily: the podcast that gives you only what's important to hear in the Pharma and Biotech world. In today's episode, we have several news updates to share with you. Let's get started.## FDA Official Janet Woodcock to RetireJanet Woodcock, a top official at the FDA, will be retiring early next year. Woodcock has been with the agency for an impressive 37 years and has played a crucial role in the FDA's pandemic response. She has also made important decisions regarding opioids, Alzheimer's therapy, and muscular dystrophy drugs.## Homology Enters Reverse Merger with Q32 BioBiotech company Homology has entered a reverse merger with Q32 Bio. This strategic move will result in a combined company operating under Q32's name. Homology recently faced challenges, including staff layoffs and halted research. This merger could potentially help them navigate through these difficulties.## Astellas Acquires Propella TherapeuticsAstellas, a pharmaceutical company, has made a significant acquisition by paying $175 million to acquire privately held Propella Therapeutics. This deal includes an experimental prostate cancer drug. This acquisition reflects the increasing activity in the biotech M&A space.## Eli Lilly Plans $2.5 Billion Manufacturing PlantEli Lilly, a major pharmaceutical company, has announced plans to build a new $2.5 billion manufacturing plant. This facility is aimed at meeting the growing demand for obesity drugs, following the recent approval of their obesity drug, Zepbound. The plant will help prevent shortages and ensure wider access to this drug.## Eli Lilly Invests in German Manufacturing FacilityContinuing on Eli Lilly's expansion plans, they are also investing $2.5 billion in a German manufacturing facility. This investment is specifically focused on meeting the high demand for weight-loss treatments. The German plant will support the supply of Tirzepatide, a drug that has shown promising results in clinical trials for obesity treatment.## AstraZeneca's Truqap Receives FDA ApprovalAstraZeneca's Akt inhibitor, Truqap, has received FDA approval. It can now be used in combination with the endocrine therapy Faslodex for adult patients with advanced HR-positive breast cancer. This approval expands the treatment options for breast cancer patients and provides a new targeted therapy approach.## FDA Approves Pfizer and Astellas' XtandiThe FDA has granted approval for Pfizer and Astellas' Xtandi. This drug can now be used for the treatment of nonmetastatic castration-sensitive prostate cancer with biochemical recurrence at high risk for metastasis. This approval allows Xtandi to be used earlier in the treatment process, offering a new option for patients with this type of prostate cancer.## Merck's Keytruda Receives Expanded FDA ApprovalMerck has received FDA approval to expand the label of its anti-PD-1 blockbuster drug Keytruda. It can now be used as a first-line treatment option for locally advanced unresectable or metastatic gastric or gastroesophageal junction adenocarcinoma. This approval further solidifies Keytruda's position as a leading immunotherapy treatment.## Focus on Disease Prevention in Pharma IndustryThere is a growing conversation around disease prevention in the pharmaceutical industry. Many industry leaders, such as GSK CEO Emma Walmsley and 23andMe CEO Anne Wojcicki, are emphasizing the importance of prevention. GSK is focusing on its pipeline of vaccines, while 23andMe explores the potential of genomics in disease screening. This shift towards prevention comes at a time when life expectancy in the U.S. is declining due to preventable causes.That's all for today's episode.

This edWeb podcast is sponsored by Smekens Education Solutions.The edWebinar recording can be accessed here.Like all curricula battling for instructional time, writing often doesn't emerge as a priority—until standardized test results reveal that there is a problem. When that happens, it's all hands on deck. But the momentum often stalls with the question: Where should we start?The answer isn't found in purchasing another boxed writing program or administering more writing assessments. Instead, research clearly reveals that student writing improves with effective writing instruction. But addressing what constitutes “effective” instruction is the next challenge.During this practical and engaging edWeb Podcast, author and educator Kristina Smekens describes the seven factors that must be addressed when embarking on any school or district writing initiative. She provides evidence as to why these components are necessary and how they impact student writing achievement.This edWeb Podcast is for any K-12 district or school administrator, instructional coach, or teacher leader who is seeking clarity on how to improve writing instruction and ultimately student achievement.Smekens Education Solutions Smekens Education helps K-12 schools improve achievement in reading and writing with practical PD.Disclaimer: This post contains affiliate links.

November is recognized as National Family Caregivers Month, which is an important part of the Parkinson's Foundation efforts to honor the contributions of the 65 million people in the U.S. who care for a loved one who is aging or living with a chronic condition like Parkinson's disease (PD). We have a special interview with John L. Lehr, President and CEO of the non-profit Parkinson's Foundation, and Gil Kim, who is the primary care partner for his wife, Gina, who was diagnosed with PD in 2011.John L. Lehr leads the Parkinson's Foundation as president & chief executive officer. He has nearly three decades of nonprofit fundraising and management experience, with a strong focus in the voluntary healthcare and medical research sectors. John played a key role in merging two legacy Parkinson's organizations into the Parkinson's Foundation in 2017. Since joining the Foundation, fundraising revenue has grown each year by double digits, allowing the Foundation to greatly expand its mission programs. John led the efforts to open 17 regional chapters to better serve local Parkinson's communities. These developments and other initiatives have allowed the Foundation to earn a 4-star rating from Charity Navigator, a Platinum Seal of Transparency from GuideStar, and to be named to the 2020 list of Best Places to Work by The Non-Profit Times. During his tenure at the Foundation, John has overseen several major initiatives including:Expanding the Foundation's Center of Excellence Network to 47 Centers globally;Launching PDGeneration: Mapping the Future of Parkinson's Disease, a groundbreaking study to gather genetic data for research and drug development on thousands of people with PD by offering free genetic testing and counseling;Co-hosting the Parkinson's Policy Forum to align the Parkinson's community around key issues, and to petition state and federal lawmakers to take action on pressing patient needs and policy changes.And, launching the Newly Diagnosed Initiative to reach the more than 60,000 individuals diagnosed with PD in the US each year, and to connect them to the Foundation's many educational resources.During his time with the Foundation, he has directed more than $30 million in research and clinical grants for promising Parkinson's disease studies. In advocating for the PD community, John recognizes the importance of expanding community services and resources that are offered for free, notably extended hours and Spanish-language capabilities for the Helpline, which receives thousands of calls each year. John earned his BA and MA in History from Villanova University. From 1990-1991, he served as a Peace Corps volunteer in Sri Lanka.Parkinson's Advocate & Caregiver Gil Kim is the primary care partner for his wife, Gina, who was diagnosed with PD in 2011. A 40-year Veteran of the Army Corps of Engineers, Gil has worked tirelessly to build a PD infrastructure in their home state of Mississippi that benefits rural residents of the state. Gil also serves on the Parkinson's Foundation People with Parkinson's Advisory Council, striving to improve the quality of life for his wife, people with PD, and their care partners.

Hello Colleagues and welcome to another 5 for Friday episode of The Assistant Principal Podcast!Today's shout out goes to… Those of you reaching out to me via email and LinkedIn! It inspires me to keep going. Specifically, I'd like to thank: Darius Coulibaly Kelly Scarbrough Valerie Jones Annette Brown And a special thanks to Tammi Barker who wrote:I listen to your podcasts on my way to work as I just promoted to a VP in July. Your podcasts motivate and reinspire me when I'm feeling overwhelmed or defeated. This is the first position that I've never been able to complete all of my work before going home. I'm am learning quickly that it will consist of many more of those days. I am working on changing my mindset and trying to rebalance my work and home life.Tammi dm'd me on LinkedIn on a day I was feeling very low and was questioning whether or not I even wanted to record a five for Friday (last week's, not this one). She turned my whole day around  in a text that took two minutes to compose.This s a great example of how simple and easy it is for us to exert positive power by lifting up others.And… Tammi heard about the show via her supervisor. I do not have a strong social media presence and most of our growth comes from word of mouth, so if you don't have time to be present with someone and nurture them, consider forwarding this show to them instead.Okay, let's get to the week's emails.Today's episode of Five for Friday recaps the strategic leadership emails for the week of November 13-17, 2023. The week's emails:The takeaway: Obvious takeaway for this week: ASK PEOPLE REFELCTIVE QUESTIONS!Sometimes I think I repeat myself too much, that it is so simple. But then I think about my own leadership, how I am dialed into presence, how I know the questions by heart, and how my sone Colin walked into my office this morning and I barely acknowledged him and did not ask any questions at all. We all fall down on this stuff, we are all too busy. And so I keep emphasizing the power of presence and of asking the right questions. It's as much for me and those of us who know and try as it is for those of you who are just hearing this for the first (or second) time. Collin edits our Five for Friday episodes, so I can say here Collin, I'll do better being present with you next time. And you my dear colleague, who do you need to commit to being more present with? A peer at work, your partner, or maybe even – yourself.That is this week's Five for Friday rendition of The Assistant Principal Podcast. Thank you for including me on your leadership journey. I look forward to seeing you again next Tuesday when I dig into the six dimensions of organizations. The six dimensions framework is foundational to so much of what I talk about. Please remember to subscribe and rate this podcast. As I record this, we have 21 ratings and 6 reviews – we are inching forward! Remember increasing those numbers helps others find the show and I really appreciate hearing from you. If you can't rate the show, at least help others find it by forwarding the show link to a colleague. Please! You'll be helping leaders like those mentioned at the top of the show find a PD source that improrves both life and leadership.I'm Frederick Buskey and thank you again for joining me on this episode of the Assistant Principal Podcast.
