Podcasts about Piece

My guest today on the Online for Authors podcast is Twila Mason, author of the book Piece by Piece.  Twila is an award-winning romance author. She has been writing her own stories since she learned how to read. She is a writer of romance, women's fiction, poetry, and short stories. Her work explores raw emotions and the complexities of life while finding the hope within every obstacle.   After obtaining a PhD in Cell and Developmental Biology, she switched gears to follow her lifelong dream of putting her fictional stories out into the world. She lives the rural, small-town life in Missouri with her husband, two kids, and menagerie of animals. When she's not reading or writing, Twila can be found crafting, farming, doing home improvement projects, or going on adventures with her family.   In my book review, I stated Piece by Piece is a friends-to-lovers contemporary romance that takes a hard look at the drug culture - and what it does to families. Aria spends her childhood looking after her baby brother, Ben, because her mother simple cannot. As a drug addict, she is often high, always unreliable, and rarely offers motherly support. When her mother spends the rent money, Aria arrives home to find the family is now on the street. She turns to an old friend, Luke, who found a way out of the old neighborhood.   Although there is an immediate spark between them, Luke and Aria dance around the attraction because neither is ready to commit. We get front row seats as we watch them battle their demons and navigate a new world where peace, hope, and love have a chance to exist. As completely foreign concepts, neither one really knows what to do when life isn't a battlefield.   That's not to say everything is easy. Moving past trauma and finding the right path is not easy. Nor is forgiveness - of others or of self. And what to do when the ones you should love are the ones that keep hurting you?   This story is sweet as two young people fall in love. But it is also edgy as we see what happens when drugs and alcohol cause childhood trauma and can easily create a family cycle of abuse.   Subscribe to Online for Authors to learn about more great books! https://www.youtube.com/@onlineforauthors?sub_confirmation=1   Join the Novels N Latte Book Club community to discuss this and other books with like-minded readers: https://www.facebook.com/groups/3576519880426290   You can follow Author Twila Mason Website: https://www.twilamason.com FB:@twilamasonauthor IG: @twilamason_author X: @twilamasona LinkedIn: @twila-mason-phd-3b824330   Purchase Piece by Piece on Amazon: Paperback: https://amzn.to/4lhAvHY Ebook: https://amzn.to/4kq9XDg   Teri M Brown, Author and Podcast Host: https://www.terimbrown.com FB: @TeriMBrownAuthor IG: @terimbrown_author X: @terimbrown1   Want to be a guest on Online for Authors?

The events of September 11, 2001 changed the world. Julian reflects on several interpretations of what they meant, proposing that each is a kind of Rorschach-test result based on our own religious and political beliefs, backgrounds, and social conditioning.  The conspiracy theorist simply can't believe something like that could happen to America, going in search of complicated alternative explanations that exist outside of the “official narrative,” even of reality itself. Where the Christian conservative might see a call to Holy War signaling that the End Times is near, Neocon warhawks surrounding Bush observe an opportunity to enact plans for maintaining economic and political power and security. Meanwhile, many on the left see the attack as justifiable “blowback” against American imperialism, Cold War atrocities, and Western colonialism. Religion is merely an inflaming of a fundamentalist minority based on political injustices. What about the Soviet Union? The history of political Islam and massive Muslim caliphates that ruled for nearly 1,300 years? The intractable sectarian conflicts and the multiple internal ideologies vying for control over the Middle East? There may be no easy answers, but perhaps engaging with these different perspectives can allow us to name some of the many factors that got us to 9/11 and the seemingly unsolvable dilemmas of our world today.

“I am staying.” – Jack Barsky Three words on a dirt road. Three words that ended one life & cemented another. Three words that turned a mission into a calling. Because by the time Moscow ordered this KGB agent home, Jack wasn't just a spy with a cover story. He was a college valedictorian, a successful corporate executive, a father raising a little girl who'd stolen his heart. Piece by piece, he had built a life in America. Not perfect. Not easy. But real. A life that didn't come from forged documents or coded radio signals. One built like any other—by late nights, failed ventures, second chances, & love discovered. So, when the KGB told him to run, he stayed. He chose the life he'd built over the life he'd been assigned. And that's the real story here. Jack's tales of espionage may make headlines, but it's the everyday work of building something that lasts — a business, a family, a future — that defines his legacy. And it's exactly what defines yours. To stay—to keep building, to redefine yourself again & again—that's what sets you apart as an individual & an entrepreneur. Ready for more? Connect with him at JackBarsky.com. Jack proves what C.S. Lewis said best: “Courage is not simply one of the virtues, but the form of every virtue at the testing point.”

As the Hudson's Bay Company continues to sell off what it owns to pay back creditors, a historic document has come up for sale. The Bay's charter is its founding document, dating back to 1670, in which King Charles II gave the company exclusive trading rights over much of what would become Canada.Now the court is grappling with finding a process to sell this one-of-a-kind piece of Canadian history after an offer from Galen Weston and his family derailed plans for an auction. Susan Krashinsky Robertson explains how the sale of this document has raised a lot of questions about who gets to own history, who gets to decide and how some of Canada's wealthiest families have expressed interest in buying it.Questions?

Let's Chat!Anthony invites us behind the scenes of his gripping crime series "Death of Peace of Mind" in this revealing mid-series review. For fans who've been following Detective Walter Grayson's pursuit of the methodical Green Briar killer, this episode peels back the layers of meaning beneath the blood and evidence.The podcast isn't just another detective story—it's a psychological excavation disguised as a crime thriller. "It's about confronting the pieces of you you'd rather bury," Anthony explains, revealing how each victim represents a philosophical concept: cowardice, unfinished debts, waiting, false accounting, and trapped identities. The Green Briar doesn't simply kill; he teaches through elaborately staged crime scenes that serve as sermons on human nature.What makes Detective Grayson so compelling is his unsettling familiarity with the killer's methods. He doesn't just investigate crime scenes—he recognizes them. His partner Laura Black, inspired by Helen Mirren's character in "Prime Suspect" and action star Cynthia Rothrock, suspects Grayson but is torn by their decade-long partnership. Their complex relationship forms the emotional core of the series, with Anthony hinting at untold history between them that will emerge in coming episodes.The 80s soundtrack isn't mere nostalgia; it's integrated into the storytelling, sometimes bleeding from the world into hallucination, raising questions about whose perspective we're truly experiencing. As Anthony promises to "turn everything up to ten" in the remaining episodes, the central question shifts from the killer's identity to a more disturbing possibility: "When the last page turns, whose name will be at the bottom?"Ready to dive deeper into this neo-noir world where detectives and killers might be reflections of each other? Leave a comment, share with a friend who needs both entertainment and personal growth, and connect with Anthony through the chat function, email (anthony@gentsjourney.com), or Instagram (@my_gents_journey). Remember—you create your reality."True mastery is found in the details. The way you handle the little things defines the way you handle everything."

Do you ever find yourself looking forward to your next holiday… even when the last one just ended? Or counting down to lunch before your day has even begun? In this opening episode of Season 18, I explore our very human tendency to live ahead of ourselves — and how we can gently guide ourselves back to presence.I reflect on conversations with my son, moments of yearning, memories from years gone by — and the beautiful, sometimes difficult practice of being with what is. I share thoughts on how cultural conditioning, unconscious habits, and even well-meaning manifestation messages can pull us out of the now… and what helps us come back.There's a lot of heart in this one, including:what we miss when we live for the “there”quotes from Thich Nhat Hanh and Ram Dass that always bring me homeand why presence doesn't mean avoiding changeI also share a little about A Piece of Quiet — and why it's becoming one of the things I most love to create.You'll hear the wind get up as I talk about coming into Winter - and the beaded curtain that covers the open door of the stable begins to clatter slightly. Apologies for this and also...

Students are heading back to school, and in addition to all of the usual challenges of the school year, some children are carrying an extra weight: climate anxiety. Teachers are also swimming in tricky waters as conversations around the climate crisis — and renewable energy — become more polarized. Yet there are educators who have worked to create resources for students and teachers, to help bring climate education into the classroom. The question is: How can schools, parents and teachers better help young people navigate the ideas and feelings around a warming planet?  Guests:  Margaret Wang-Aghania, Executive Director and Co-Founder, SubjectToClimate Robin Cooper, Co-Founder and President, Climate Psychiatry Alliance Melissa Lau, High School Environmental Science Teacher, Piedmont, Oklahoma Leah Christenson, 2026 Piedmont High School Senior; Vice President, Piedmont High School Green Team  Alyson Dennie, 2026 Piedmont High School Senior; President Piedmont High School Green Team This episode features a field piece by Mary Catherine O'Connor, who originally reported the ⁠story⁠ for KALW Public Media.  Highlights: 00:00 - Intro 3:33 - Margaret Wang-Aghania on her aha moment 5:42 - Margaret Wang-Aghania on how lessons get developed 12:33 - Margaret Wang-Aghania on teacher development 15:00 - Alyson Dennie and Leah Christenson on their climate related feelings 17:10 - Robin Cooper on how the emotions young people face because of climate 24:17 - Robin Cooper on how the moment the guides her thinking  26:52 - Robin Cooper on how to know if a young person is dealing with climate anxiety 33:34 - Mary Catherine O'Connor's Piece on Electric Buses in Oakland  40:05 - Melissa Lau on the arctic trip that changed her life 44:33 - Melissa Lau on not being shy about teaching climate  48:35 - Melissa Lau on the importance of relationship building For show notes and related links, visit ClimateOne.org. *** Support Climate One by going ad-free!

Hello! Welcome back! In this episode, I am reflecting on my recent evolution, quantum leap and manifestation of a goal that has been on my heart for over a decade!  I'm pulling back the curtain and sharing what's really happening as I prepare to host my very first retreat. For over 10 years, this was a dream sitting in the future. But in March, I made a decision — and everything changed. In this episode, I'm sharing how my identity has shifted step by step, why nervous system regulation has been key, and how this same process applies to your manifestations. ✨ Because here's the truth: manifestation is an identity game. Every aligned action you take evolves you into the version of you who already has the life you desire.   What you'll hear in this episode: How I shifted from “someday” to actually hosting a retreat. The motto that carried me: big brave step → regulate → repeat. Why fear and resistance mean you're on the right track. How your nervous system decides if you can hold your next-level vision. What it really looks like to experience a quantum leap (when you zoom in). Reflective Questions for You: Where am I still saying “someday”? What is one brave step I can take toward my vision this week? How can I regulate and stay in my body as fear or resistance comes up? Who am I becoming through this process? What would it feel like if this identity shift was already embodied?   As Mentioned...

Students are heading back to school, and in addition to all of the usual challenges of the school year, some children are carrying an extra weight: climate anxiety. Teachers are also swimming in tricky waters as conversations around the climate crisis — and renewable energy — become more polarized.

The question is: How can schools, parents and teachers better help young people navigate the ideas and feelings around a warming planet?  Guests:  Margaret Wang-Aghania, Executive Director and Co-Founder, SubjectToClimate Robin Cooper, Co-Founder and President, Climate Psychiatry Alliance Melissa Lau, High School Environmental Science Teacher, Piedmont, Oklahoma Leah Christenson, 2026 Piedmont High School Senior; Vice President, Piedmont High School Green Team  Alyson Dennie, 2026 Piedmont High School Senior; President Piedmont High School Green Team This episode features a field piece by Mary Catherine O'Connor, who originally reported the ⁠⁠story⁠⁠ for KALW Public Media.  Highlights: 00:00 - Intro 3:33 - Margaret Wang-Aghania on her aha moment 5:42 - Margaret Wang-Aghania on how lessons get developed 12:33 - Margaret Wang-Aghania on teacher development 15:00 - Alyson Dennie and Leah Christenson on their climate related feelings 17:10 - Robin Cooper on how the emotions young people face because of climate 24:17 - Robin Cooper on how the moment the guides her thinking  26:52 - Robin Cooper on how to know if a young person is dealing with climate anxiety 33:34 - Mary Catherine O'Connor's Piece on Electric Buses in Oakland  40:05 - Melissa Lau on the arctic trip that changed her life 44:33 - Melissa Lau on not being shy about teaching climate  48:35 - Melissa Lau on the importance of relationship building For show notes and related links, visit ⁠ClimateOne.org⁠. *** Support Climate One by going ad-free!

In this episode, Rory sits down with Christine Simone, founder of Caribou Wealth (now part of Move Health), to explore why healthcare planning is the missing piece in holistic advice for CPAs and advisors. Christine shares her journey of building a platform that helps firms support clients with Medicare, marketplace coverage, and employer plans—areas that are often overlooked despite being one of the top expenses in retirement. Discover how to identify client red flags, keep track of key enrollment deadlines, and use strategies like premium tax credits to reduce costs. Learn why healthcare can act as a barrier to big life transitions, such as starting a business or retiring before 65, and how addressing it empowers clients to move forward with clarity and confidence. Christine also unpacks how firms can implement healthcare planning without becoming insurance experts by partnering with the right resources and leveraging technology. Want to know how healthcare planning can save clients thousands and strengthen trust? Want to know the key dates and life events when healthcare needs to be addressed? Find out the answers to these questions and more in this insightful conversation with Christine Simone.

Let's Chat!What happens when we leave someone waiting too long? In "The One Who Waited," we follow Detective Grayson through rain-slicked streets of 1980s Chicago as he investigates the murder of Mary Blake—a woman from his past whose throat was cut in an alley behind the Sapphire Room jazz club. But this noir mystery quickly transforms into something far more haunting.As Grayson discovers cryptic messages left at the crime scene and encounters vinyl records that play without power, he confronts an uncomfortable truth: Mary didn't die because of what he did, but because of what he wouldn't do. She waited for him, believing in a version of him that he couldn't sustain, while he wrapped himself in silence and absence. Through supernatural manifestations—messages appearing in fogged mirrors, radios turning on by themselves, and ash drawings that move across walls—Grayson faces the consequence of leaving someone suspended in hope that never materialized.The episode reveals how waiting isn't neutral but grows thorns over time. Every unreturned call, every missed show, every promise broken creates a ledger of emotional debt that someone else pays for. The metaphorical "Greenbrier" entity represents how absence rots and silence collects interest. What makes this story particularly powerful is how it distinguishes between grief (which faces truth) and avoidance (which hides inside grief to escape accountability).Whether you've been the one checking your phone repeatedly for a message that never arrives or the one letting calls go to voicemail with promises to respond "later," this episode will make you reconsider the open loops in your own life. What rooms still hold someone else's breath? What lights have you left on in doorways you never intended to cross again? Listen, reflect, and perhaps find the courage to either turn off those lights or walk through those doors for real. The peace of mind you seek might be waiting on the other side of a single honest sentence."True mastery is found in the details. The way you handle the little things defines the way you handle everything."

Apple slices were a favorite Chicago pastry decades ago. Not many bakeries sell them today, but the dessert still has avid fans who hold on to its nostalgic flavor.

Would you like access to our advanced agency training for FREE? https://www.agencymastery360.com/training Are you an agency owner chasing the $1 million mark, believing that milestone will finally transform your business? Today's featured guest once felt the same way—until he got there and discovered it was all a myth. Hitting seven figures looked like success on paper, but behind the scenes he was burning himself out just to keep things afloat. In this episode, he reveals the processes that helped him escape no man's land, the critical lessons he learned about hiring, and the one thing he would do differently if he had the chance to start over. Justin Rashidi is the CEO and co-founder of SeedX, where he leads data-driven marketing strategy and operations. Justin never planned to start an agency, but what started as a tutoring gig in New York soon turned into a full-blown business. After getting past some common agency growth hurdles, he'll share what he's learned on overcoming no man's land, hiring, why he thinks like a SaaS founder when it comes to running his agency, and more. In this episode, we'll discuss: Don't fall for the million-dollar myth. Why growing fast was a problem and how he would change it. Hiring? Don't go for the entrepreneur type. Getting beyond ‘no man's land'.

When “The Side Thing” Has the Potential to Become a Growing Business Justin grew up in a family where being a doctor, lawyer, or engineer was the gold standard. Entrepreneurship wasn't even on his radar. After moving to New York and starting a tutoring company, he realized business was way more fun than he expected. That small company eventually led him into freelancing—websites, marketing, whatever clients needed. The real turning point came when he and his now-wife recognized that the “side thing” they kept ignoring was actually worth building. Instead of just coasting from project to project, they doubled down and started turning Seedex into a functional, growing organization. The Million-Dollar Myth Hitting the million-dollar mark sounds like the dream milestone for agency owners. Justin admits he thought so too… until he actually got there three years into the business. In reality, it was one of the hardest stages of growth. At that point, your agency looks successful on paper, but reality tells a different story. You don't have the capital to hire senior talent. Your team is probably junior and undertrained. Processes are shaky. And you—the founder—are working yourself into the ground to hold it all together. Justin remembers that stage as “a form of hell” that helped him understand why many owners try to sell at one million. He was gaining weight, losing weekends, and burning out fast. Scaling too quickly without solid processes or proper capital can trap you in a worse spot than before. Grow Slower, Build Stronger Looking back, Justin sees one of the biggest problems for his agency was how fast they grew. If he could change anything, he would've slowed down growth. That doesn't sound sexy, but it's real. At the moment, it felt exciting to see his business grow so much. What he didn't know, however, was that scaling without processes or capital is like building a skyscraper on quicksand—it looks impressive until it collapses. He recommends two key moves for agency owners chasing growth: Build strong processes first. Make sure you can consistently deliver client success before you pile on more clients. Secure working capital. Don't wait until you're desperate for cash to get financing. Get a line of credit while things look good—because once you actually need it, banks disappear. This is one of those lessons that sounds boring… until you've lived through the chaos yourself. Thinking About Hiring Entrepreneurs? Justin Says “Just Don't” Another one of Justin's biggest realizations after hitting $1 million was that he had pushed the agency as far as his own hustle could take it. Suddenly, growth wasn't about what he could do—it was about what his team could do. As he put it, “I got myself here, now I have to get the rest of the team here too.” That's when he realized growth isn't about finding the right “how,” it's about finding the right who. That focus on hiring also came with hard lessons, Justin learned what makes an employee succeed or fail within an agency. He also learned the hard way: never hire entrepreneurs. Entrepreneurs leave within 6–12 months to chase their own ventures. Instead, hire people who want to grow inside your company, who hold themselves to high standards, and who take ownership of improving processes. Once you have those people, agency life gets a whole lot easier. You're no longer solving every problem yourself—you've got a team that can think, adapt, and solve without you micromanaging. Beyond “No Man's Land” Every agency owner eventually hits that “no man's land” stage—the space between $1M and true scale—where everything feels hard. For Justin, it didn't end with some big breakthrough moment. It faded slowly over time. Piece by piece, things got easier: better operations, employees leveling up, hiring stronger talent, having more capital, and—maybe most importantly—understanding how a business actually functions. That compounding effect created stability. And while he wouldn't call it easy, he admits the business is way more enjoyable today than it was a few years ago. Numbers Don't Lie Which KPIs you pay attention to may differ depending on your particular market. When it comes to running SeedX today, Justin thinks like a SaaS founder and focuses a lot on contract retention and contract expansion. He wants zero churn and contracts that expand over time. That's how you build a healthy, stable agency without constantly chasing short-term clients. On top of that, he keeps a close eye on profit margins - aiming for 20% and runs monthly reviews with a tight bookkeeping process. For some, the more their agency grows the harder it is to maintain margins. In Justin's case, as his business has grown, their margins have expanded. Why? Because they got better at scoping projects and started moving upmarket to clients who pay properly for expertise. The agency world is full of bad scoping, undercharging, and scope creep. Justin's team now tracks time, analyzes leakage, and runs post-project reviews to tighten estimates. Raising Prices and Playing to Win One of the most powerful lessons Justin learned once he started tracking these KPIs was the danger of undercharging. Once he was running profitably, he realized he should be charging some clients more, and at this point he was confident enough to go back to clients and renegotiate that rate. In the early days, fear drove pricing. He didn't think clients would pay more. Now he sees it differently. If a prospect won't pay what it's worth, let them go. The client that undercut you will eventually realize they made a mistake—and when they come back into the market, they'll be ready to pay at the right price. “It's like a magic $30K shows up,” he says. Since you're running operations correctly and the time is already committed, that revenue drops straight to the bottom line. That's the power of pricing confidence. So stop racing to the bottom. Raise your rates, deliver great work, and let the unprofitable clients filter themselves out. Do You Want to Transform Your Agency from a Liability to an Asset?

For someone who achieved global fame at 17 after a chance encounter with Celine Dion, this discovery of presence came as a revelation.
