Happy January 1st—and happy Day 1 of Dry January (if you're doing it). I love that this episode drops on the very first day of 2026 because if you've been thinking, “I can't do another year like last year…” this is your sign. In today's episode, I'm joined by two of my favorite humans (and two of my best sober friends): Gill Tietz from the Sober Powered Podcast and Suzanne Wayre from The Sober Mom Life Podcast. The three of us have been “text buddies” for over five years (yes, it's basically a full-time job), and we wanted to get together to help you make this Dry January different—especially if you've tried before and found yourself back in the drinking cycle by Day 4… or Day 14… or the infamous second Friday in January (aka “Quitter's Day”). We're talking about what actually helps you keep going when motivation fades, real life hits, and your usual reasons for drinking show up (stress, boredom, parenting, work, relationships, feelings… and yes, even IKEA furniture). If you want 2026 to feel better, calmer, clearer, and more like you—this episode is for you.

2025 ha sido un año importante en la política internacional. Ha estado marcado por el regreso de Donald Trump a la Casa Blanca. Su hiperactividad y una presencia constante en los medios, han dominado el año. Varios países han ganado y otros han perdido. Entre los primeros está China que, contra todo pronóstico, ha sido uno de los mayores beneficiados. Trump, consciente de los altos costes de una guerra comercial, firmó en noviembre una tregua que suavizó las restricciones chinas a las tierras raras. Esta distensión ha permitido a Xi Jinping centrarse en los problemas internos y consolidar a China como una superpotencia económica equivalente a EEUU. En Oriente Medio Arabia Saudita se ha convertido en el socio indispensable de Trump en Oriente Medio. Esto posiciona al país como el principal contrapeso a Irán y cabeza del mundo árabe. No muy lejos Israel se ha subido también al carro de los vencedores gracias a victorias como la destrucción del programa nuclear iraní y el final de la guerra de Gaza que ha dejado a Hezbolá y a Hamás muy debilitadas. Netanyahu termina el año con Israel en su posición más fuerte en varias décadas. En Sudamérica la Argentina de Javier Milei no sólo se está recuperando poco a poco de la crisis económica que sufre desde hace años, es que se ha convertido en el aliado preferencial de EEUU en Hispanoamérica. Trump ve en Milei un socio muy confiable que servirá de contrapeso a la influencia china en la región. En Siria las cosas también han mejorado. Tras la caída de Assad en 2024 el nuevo Gobierno ha conseguido que les retiren casi todas todas las sanciones, lo que permitirá reconstruir el país y atraerá inversión extranjera. Para los sirios 2025 ha sido el primer año de paz en los últimos tres lustros. En el lado opuesto varios países han sufrido reveses importantes. Irán ha encajado el mayor golpe: su programa nuclear está destruido, aliados como Hezbolá muy debilitados y, para colmo de males, nuevas sanciones y la crisis económica va a más agravada por la inflación desbocada y protestas callejeras. Sus aliados venezolanos están incluso peor. El régimen chavista se encuentra aislado y Nicolás Maduro no tiene muy claro que el régimen pueda sobrevivir al bloqueo naval que decretó Donald Trump hace unas semanas. Rusia y China se han puesto de perfil, tanto con Irán como con Venezuela. En el primer mundo la Unión Europea atraviesa un estancamiento económico que se ha cronificado a causa de una regulación excesiva, altos impuestos y rigideces de todo tipo. Esto alimenta el auge de partidos de derecha identitaria que crecen como la espuma cabalgando sobre el descontento y la inmigración. En Canadá las cosas no van mucho mejor. El nuevo Gobierno de Mark Carney está batallando contra una crisis similar a la europea. En el Reino Unido pasa exactamente lo mismo. El año geopolítico ha sido, por lo demás, especialmente movido y ha dejado muchos asuntos abiertos para los próximos meses. Pero es bueno recordar que ninguna victoria o derrota es definitiva: los ganadores de hoy pueden ser los perdedores de mañana y viceversa.

Tired of ADHD strategies that don't work? Here's what actually does. FREE training here: https://programs.tracyotsuka.com/signup_____Every year, many of us feel pressure to set resolutions, overhaul our lives, or become a “new version” of ourselves. That approach rarely works for ADHD brains.In this episode, let's talk about a different way forward. Instead of adding more goals, habits, or systems, this episode explores the power of choosing one word to guide the year and why simplicity works so well for ADHD brains. Tracy walks through the science behind why a single, emotionally charged word is easier to remember, easier to act on, and more motivating than long to do lists or rigid plans.The episode also shares the personal experiences that shaped Tracy's word for 2026, including major family health events, big transitions, and the decision to let go of a long time family home. Along the way, she explains why ADHD brains do not thrive on more, how clutter and obligation quietly drain cognitive bandwidth, and why subtraction can actually bring clarity, creativity, and energy back online.You'll hear how subtracting is not about minimalism or doing less for the sake of it, but about making space for what actually matters. From simplifying systems and commitments to questioning beliefs that no longer fit, this episode offers a grounded way to think about growth that does not rely on pressure or perfection.If you're feeling overwhelmed, stretched thin, or ready to stop carrying what no longer fits, this episode is for you.Resources:Website: tracyotsuka.comInstagram: https://instagram.com/tracyotsuka YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@tracyotsuka4796FREE 3-days to Fall in Love With Your ADHD Brain training on Jan 6th:  tracyotsuka.com/ilovemybrain Tired of ADHD strategies that don't work?

You know the look: the blank stare, the shrugged shoulders, the quiet "I don't care" that shows up no matter how engaging the lesson or activity is. When students feel apathetic, it can be one of the most discouraging challenges in the elementary classroom. But apathy isn't a lack of ability; it's a disconnect. In today's episode, I take a deeper look at why this is happening and share practical, simple strategies you can start using with your apathetic students right away.

Pool Pros text questions hereIn the conclusion of Natalie Hood's conversation with Ryan Walker, the focus shifts from “selling pool stuff” to selling outcomes: experience, lifestyle, confidence, and trust. This episode pulls the curtain back on what's really happening in today's retail and builder sales environment—homeowners aren't shopping locally anymore. They're shopping globally through TikTok, Instagram, and Pinterest, then walking into your store or your design meeting with Dubai-level expectations and a Michigan budget… and they still want you to make it real.Ryan breaks down why dealers and retailers can't win by being defensive, dismissive, or stuck in “this is how we've always done it.” Instead, the winning move is customer-centric discovery: show what's possible, guide the customer through tradeoffs, and give them a solution—not a shutdown. Along the way, the conversation hits pricing psychology, upselling ethically, supplier partnerships, training your staff in the off-season, and why one bad review can punch harder than ten great ones.What This Episode CoversSelling the vision, not just the pool Homeowners aren't buying “a body of water.” They're buying backyard life that replaces travel, replaces entertainment, and becomes the family experience hub. Pools (and even above-ground setups) have evolved into full environments—decks, lighting, wellness add-ons, the whole vibe.Why “cheap” isn't the conversation anymore With pool projects regularly crossing the $100K mark, obsessing over saving $50–$200 can be meaningless against the total investment (and the loan). The real job is to help the buyer spend smarter, not just spend less.Social media has changed the customer's brain Customers aren't looking at “what sells in this zip code.” They're looking at what looks insane on a reel. Dealers who don't adapt to global inspiration trends risk sounding outdated or dismissive—and that's how you lose the room (and the sale).Dealers must stop taking trends personally If a customer brings you an idea that's unrealistic or “not right for your market,” the answer isn't a slammed door. The answer is:explain why it's hard,explain what it would require,and offer an alternative solution that gets the same feeling with fewer headaches.How to upsell without being gross Ryan points out that strong sales isn't pressure—it's clarity. Customers want you to guide them. If you can retain attention, build trust, and connect features to outcomes, you can justify premium choices without acting like a carnival barker.Heat pump myth-busting (yes, even in cold markets) The episode calls out the “heat pumps don't work here” mindset and reframes it: heat pumps work in Canada, and Canada is colder than Michigan. Translation: the barrier isn't physics—it's explanation and expectation-setting.Supplier relationships: stop waiting to be visited Reps cover huge territories and get flooded with requests. If you want training, product support, or attention—ask for it. Call. Get the rep's number from the distributor. The hungriest dealers get the most support because they create the reason to show up.Off-season is training season Retail's biggest killer: bad reviews Training staff f Support the showThank you so much for listening!

Police in a Riot: An Officer Speaks. Special Episode. Riots are something most people only see through the lens of a television screen or a viral clip on social media. Flames in the background. Police lines in riot gear. Shouting crowds. What rarely makes it into the headlines is what it feels like to stand in the middle of that chaos, especially when you're a young police officer with only weeks of experience on the street. This special episode is streaming for free on the Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast website, on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, YouTube, and most every major Podcast platform In this special episode, former Charlotte, North Carolina police officer Bill Broadway takes listeners inside the harsh realities of policing during violent riots. His account is raw, detailed, and deeply unsettling, not because it's political, but because it's personal. Look for The Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast on social media like their Facebook , Instagram , LinkedIn , Medium and other social media platforms. Thrown Into the Fire Bill Broadway was just weeks out of field training when he was suddenly called into action to help control violent riots in Charlotte. Like many young officers, he expected to learn policing step by step, traffic stops, calls for service, building rapport with the community. Instead, he found himself facing crowds that were no longer protesting, but actively engaging in violence. Police in a Riot: An Officer Speaks. Special Episode. Supporting articles about this and much more from Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast in platforms like Medium , Blogspot and Linkedin . “These weren't peaceful demonstrations,” Bill explains. “This was chaos.” From the moment he arrived, it was clear this was something different. Police vehicles were targeted and removed. Officers were surrounded. Projectiles were thrown. Every decision carried the risk of serious injury, or worse. Police in a Riot: An Officer Speaks. Special Episode. Protest vs. Riot: A Critical Distinction Much of the public conversation blurs the line between protest and riot, but legally and practically, the difference matters. Generally speaking, a protest is an organized public demonstration of disapproval, often protected under the First Amendment. A riot, by contrast, is defined as a violent disturbance of the peace involving multiple people acting together in a way that threatens public safety. Police in a Riot: An Officer Speaks. Special Episode. Available for free on their website and streaming on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, Youtube and other podcast platforms. Federal law, under the Anti-Riot Act of 1968, defines a riot as a public disturbance involving acts of violence by an assemblage of three or more people that create a clear and present danger to people or property. Many states, including North Carolina, enforce similar statutes through laws addressing arson, looting, assault, unlawful assembly, and destruction of property. As Bill describes it, the moment objects started flying and officers became targets, the situation crossed that line. “When violence starts, it's no longer a protest,” he says. “It's something else entirely.” Injuries, Fear, and Constant Threats Bill walks listeners through every phase of the riot, from his initial arrival, to the loss of police vehicles, to the injuries sustained by officers on the line. What stands out most is the constant psychological pressure. Police in a Riot: An Officer Speaks. Special Episode. The Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast episode is available for free on their website , Apple Podcasts , Spotify and most major podcast platforms. “You don't just worry about what's in front of you,” Bill explains. “You're watching rooftops, alleys, shadows. You're wondering if the next hit is coming from behind.” The stress didn't end when the shift was over. Officers went home bruised, exhausted, and emotionally drained, knowing they could be called back at any moment. For many, sleep was elusive. The adrenaline lingered. The fear stayed close. Optics vs. Officer Safety One of the most controversial topics addressed is the allegation that department leadership and city officials were more concerned with optics and public opinion than with the truth, or the safety of their officers. This is not a new accusation in American policing, and it remains a deeply divisive issue. Critics argue that police departments often prioritize public relations to manage perception, reduce backlash, and limit legal exposure. The use of Public Information Officers and carefully worded statements can sometimes feel, to officers on the ground, like a disconnect from reality. Police in a Riot: An Officer Speaks. Special Episode. The special episode can be found on The Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast website, on Apple podcasts, Spotify, Youtube and on LinkedIn, Facebook, Instagram, and across most podcast platforms where listeners will find authentic law enforcement stories. On the other hand, law enforcement leaders emphasize the importance of public trust. Studies consistently show that effective policing depends on community cooperation. Transparency, communication, and accountability are essential, but difficult to balance during fast-moving, volatile events. “The people making decisions weren't the ones standing there,” Bill says. “That's what made it hard.” A Divided Public Public opinion on policing during riots is sharply divided, often along political, racial, and ideological lines. Some see restraint as weakness. Others see enforcement as oppression. Officers in the middle are left navigating not just physical danger, but a cultural battlefield. Bill doesn't claim to have all the answers. What he offers instead is perspective, what it's like to be young, inexperienced, and suddenly responsible for holding a line while the world watches. You Decide Today, Bill Broadway works for a different agency, carrying with him the lessons and scars of those nights in Charlotte. His story raises difficult questions about leadership, accountability, public safety, and the human cost of civil unrest. Police in a Riot: An Officer Speaks. Special Episode. The full podcast episode is streaming now on their website, on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, Youtube and across Facebook, Instagram, and LinkedIn. Were the riots handled correctly by department leadership and city officials? Was the balance between optics and officer safety struck appropriately? Bill shares his experience from the front lines.

SEO Expert vs. SEO Agency: Making the Right Choice for Your Business (Decision Makers Edition) with Favour Obasi-ike with Favour Obasi-Ike | Sign up for exclusive SEO insights.Episode SummaryBusiness decision-makers constantly face the challenge of choosing between a solo SEO expert and a full-service SEO agency to drive their online growth. In this episode, host Favour Obasi-ike is joined by guests Marc McIntosh, (G.A.) Pimpleton, and Jolanta Kissoon Young to demystify this critical choice.The discussion unpacks the distinct roles of each provider, revealing that an expert acts like a specialist "doctor" for targeted advice, while an agency serves as a holistic "coach" for comprehensive execution. The conversation also ventures into the dark side of the industry, exposing common pitfalls and scams with firsthand accounts of fraudulent practices.Finally, the group provides a concrete, actionable framework for vetting a trustworthy partner, emphasizing the non-negotiable need for proven results and the power of earned trust to ensure your SEO investment translates into real business growth.Read New SEO Article: Is It Worth Hiring an SEO Expert in 2026?

The most critical first step is to align your business stage with the right provider. An SEO expert is ideal for startups or businesses needing strategic advice, specialized audits, or tactical guidance ("seeing where the needle is"). A full-service agency is better suited for mid-to-large companies that require an aggressive, multi-disciplinary growth strategy and hands-on implementation ("moving the needle").Second, "receipts" are non-negotiable. Do not hire a provider based on promises alone. Demand tangible proof of their competence and impact. Ask for detailed case studies, analytics, and data—what G.A. calls "receipts"—that show where past clients in your industry started and where they finished. This data should clearly demonstrate an increase in revenue, reach, and other key business metrics.Third, trust is earned through value. The most reliable and effective SEO partners are often those who don't rely on aggressive advertising. As Marc argues, trust is built over time. Seek out experts and agencies who freely educate their audience through podcasts, blogs, or online communities. This demonstrates genuine expertise, builds a foundation of trust, and proves they are more focused on delivering value than just making a sale.Detailed Episode Breakdown & Timestamps1. Introduction: The Core DilemmaStarting at 00:00, host Favour Obasi-ike opens the discussion by framing the critical decision business owners face: whether to engage a freelance SEO expert or a larger SEO agency. He emphasizes the strategic importance of this choice, noting that it can define a company's digital foundation and shape its future growth trajectory.At 01:15, Favour Obasi-ike provides an initial breakdown of the fundamental differences, describing an expert as a specialist focused on a specific problem, while an agency covers a comprehensive range of needs. He also introduces the idea that, under specific circumstances, the two can work together effectively.At 03:30, two primary scenarios for collaboration are detailed: an expert can augment an agency's team with specialized skills for a particular project, or an expert can be brought in to provide a "third eye" perspective for an established in-house team, offering an outside view to improve internal processes.With the core dilemma established, the discussion moves to the crucial task of matching your specific business needs to the right provider model.2. Differentiating Roles: The Doctor vs. The CoachBeginning at 05:00, the conversation highlights that to make a smart investment, you must first diagnose your own needs. This section provides a clear framework—the "Doctor vs. the Coach"—to help you distinguish between the need for tactical advice versus comprehensive execution and align your specific requirements with the right type of service provider.At 06:45, the conversation compares the two roles using a clear analogy: the expert is like a doctor who diagnoses and prescribes, while the agency is like a coach who manages the team and executes the game plan. The SEO Expert, or "Doctor," acts as a consultant or specialist who provides tactics and strategies, helping you "see where the needle is." They typically cost between $500 to $3,000+ per month on average. The SEO Agency, or "Coach," provides a full team for execution and acts as the "backbone of your brand online," actively "moving the needle" for you with a robust, multidisciplinary approach.At 09:10, Favour Obasi-ike explains the concept of an SEO agency acting as the technical "backbone" for a brand online. An agency is responsible for a wide array of needs, from generating traffic and performing technical fixes to assisting with branding, backlinks, and local SEO.At 11:25, clear advice is given on when to hire each: an expert is ideal for those just starting out who need to learn the ropes and get strategic direction. In contrast, an agency is necessary for mid-to-large businesses or well-funded startups that require an aggressive, multifaceted growth strategy.While understanding the ideal roles is essential, the real risk lies in the industry's dark side. The speakers now pivot to the critical red flags that can save a business from costly mistakes.3. Industry Pitfalls: Scams, Red Flags, and Cautionary TalesAt 15:30, the conversation shifts to address the "bad rep" of the SEO industry, highlighting why business owners must be exceptionally vigilant. This segment underscores the importance of recognizing red flags to avoid wasting money, losing time, and protecting critical company assets like websites and data.At 17:00, G.A. shares his negative experiences with agencies, explaining his preference for direct, one-on-one relationships. He recounts a client's horror story where a previous agency held their website and data hostage, making it nearly impossible to transition to a new provider and regain control of their own intellectual property.At 20:15, Marc McIntosh offers a powerful anecdote about a new client who had been paying a significant sum for "SEO services" but did not even have Google Analytics or Google Search Console connected to their site—a fundamental flaw. He warns against providers selling overpriced, templated services and using fake bot traffic to manipulate reports and create the illusion of progress.At 24:50, G.A. describes a common scam in his industry where companies buy recycled, low-quality leads from "SEO experts" who use impressive-sounding buzzwords like "quantum computing" to sell ineffective, boilerplate services that fail to deliver genuine clients.Recognizing the scams is half the battle; the other half is proactively identifying a trustworthy partner. The conversation now provides a practical vetting framework to do just that.4. Vetting a Partner: How to Find a Trustworthy ProviderStarting at 28:00, and armed with an understanding of the risks, this section delivers a practical toolkit for due diligence. Follow these systematic steps to move beyond a provider's sales pitch and verify their true capabilities, establishing a successful and transparent partnership from the start.At 29:30, the speakers collectively outline actionable steps for vetting any potential SEO provider.First, ask probing questions. Favour Obasi-ike suggests asking specific operational questions to gauge professionalism and process, such as: "What is your tech stack?", "How do you handle sensitive data and passwords?", and "How do you work as a team?".Second, demand "receipts" (proof of work). Synthesizing advice from the panel, this point stresses the need to see hard evidence. Demand what GA calls "receipts"—case studies, analytics, and performance data showing where clients started and finished. Additionally, as H advises, ensure these case studies explain the strategy behind the results, demonstrating their understanding of your industry.Third, check their own fundamentals. Marc provides a simple but effective tip: audit the provider's own website for basic SEO health. If they have fundamental errors like multiple H1 tags (Mark's example) or an outdated copyright date (Jolanta's example), it's a major red flag.Fourth, verify their authority. Look for tangible proof that they are a genuine expert in their field. A credible provider often has a presence on platforms like LinkedIn, hosts a podcast, writes a blog, or runs a community where they actively share knowledge and engage with their industry.Fifth, prioritize referrals and earned trust. Marc makes a compelling argument that the best partners are found through trusted referrals, not advertisements. He advises following potential experts over time. Those who consistently teach and give value freely are building genuine trust, making them a much safer and more reliable choice.A thorough vetting process is the best defense against industry scams and serves as the foundation for a fruitful, long-term relationship.5. Final Thoughts & Resources MentionedAt 45:00, the final segment wraps up the discussion by covering specific tools and platforms that can aid in SEO efforts. This reinforces the core idea that successful SEO is not a one-time fix but an ongoing, dynamic process of learning, implementation, and adaptation.At 46:15, the discussion touches on leveraging specific platforms for greater reach. In response to Jolanta's question, Favour Obasi-ike explains that Pinterest is a powerful visual search engine, not just a social media platform. Because the lifespan of a "pin" is 3.5 months to 5 months (compared to 19-72 hours for an Instagram post), content published there continues to drive traffic and build authority for a brand long after it's posted.At 52:30, the tools and platforms mentioned throughout the episode include: ClickUp, Zoom, Google Search Console, Google Analytics, ChatGPT, LinkedIn, Clubhouse, and Pinterest.At 55:00, Favour Obasi-ike closes the episode with a final call to action, encouraging listeners to connect with him directly via the link in his bio to turn the insights from the conversation into concrete action for their businesses.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

La invasión de Ucrania, que en breve cumplirá cuatro años, ha marcado un punto de inflexión en la evolución de la guerra moderna. Un conflicto que se esperaba rápido y de tipo convencional se ha convertido en una guerra de desgaste prolongada y caracterizada por una innovación tecnológica acelerada y tácticas asimétricas. Esta guerra ha demostrado que la superioridad numérica o el armamento tradicional ya no garantiza imponerse en el campo de batalla. La adaptación rápida a nuevas tecnologías como los drones aéreos y marítimos, la inteligencia artificial y el dominio de la guerra electrónica están demostrando ser elementos fundamentales que explican por qué esta guerra se está prolongando tanto. El cambio más revolucionario ha sido la irrupción de los drones como arma dominante. Los drones no es algo que se acabe de inventar, ya se utilizaban anteriormente, pero de forma mucho más limitada. Los drones de combate eran caros, sofisticados y sólo unas pocas potencias podían permitírselos. Todo eso ha cambiado en Ucrania. Al principio drones como los turcos Bayraktar TB2 fueron de gran importancia para detener el avance ruso. El Kremlin se vio obligado a mejorar sus defensas aéreas y a dedicar muchos más recursos a la guerra electrónica. Esto trajo la proliferación de drones FPV de fabricación china y muy bajo precio que fueron de una endemoniada efectividad. Ucrania pasó de importar a producir millones de drones cada año. Hoy en el país hay más de 200 empresas dedicadas ello. Rusia respondió con la fabricación a gran escala de drones Shahed de origen iraní y variantes propias que pueden lanzarse formando enjambres. No se ha parado de innovar sobre estos artefactos no tripulados. Han aparecido drones de fibra óptica, drones autónomos movidos por inteligencia artificial y enjambres coordinados que saturan las defensas enemigas. La guerra electrónica se ha convertido en un frente más, un frente invisible pero no menos decisivo. Ambos bandos saturan el espectro electromagnético con “jammers”, trazando señales para lanzar contraataques. Esto ha comprimido ciclos de innovación que durarían meses o años a pocas semanas. Un dron efectivo hoy puede volverse obsoleto en solo unos días. En Ucrania han desarrollado sistemas para operar sin GPS, Rusia, por su parte, emplea drones con SIM ucranianas clonadas. La adopción de sistemas de inteligencia artificial no ha hecho más que acelerar la innovación. La IA permite el reconocimiento autónomo de objetivos y la evasión de defensas. En estos momentos los drones autónomos ucranianos tienen una precisión del 80% en sus ataques lo que ha nivelado el campo de batalla ya que Rusia exhibe mayor poder artillero y dispone de muchos más efectivos sobre el terreno. Desde el punto de vista táctico, la guerra de Ucrania ha dejado anticuados las grandes ofensivas mecanizadas de otros tiempos. Los tanques son demasiado vulnerables a los drones, lo que favorece la guerra de posiciones con trincheras y dispersión de fuerzas. En el mar los drones ucranianos han diezmado la flota rusa del mar Negro. La guerra híbrida compuesta por ciberataques, desinformación y sabotajes ha hecho el resto. Lo que estamos viendo en Ucrania es una “democratización” de la guerra. Contendientes que sobre el papel son muy inferiores pueden plantar cara a superpotencias con inventiva, adaptación tecnológica y producción a gran escala. El laboratorio bélico ucraniano ha tenido además un impacto crucial en la industria de defensa de todo el mundo. Se están destinando miles de millones de euros a desarrollar el nuevo armamento y los sistemas que lo mueven. Un arsenal que definirá el modo en el que se hará la guerra a lo largo de este siglo. Para tratar de este tema nos acompaña Julio González, que ya pasó por aquí hace unos meses y que de vez en cuando se deja caer por La ContraRéplica siempre con interesantes aportaciones. · Canal de Telegram: https://t.me/lacontracronica · “Contra el pesimismo”… https://amzn.to/4m1RX2R · “Hispanos.

What if God isn’t who religion told you He is? What if He’s far better—more loving, more merciful, more trustworthy—than you’ve ever dared to believe? In this heartfelt episode of Perspectives with Catherine Toon, Pieter Zwart, founder of Foundation for Life in the Netherlands, shares his powerful journey into the revelation of the Father’s heart of God. After a near-death experience and years of ministry, Pieter began asking hard questions: If God is good, why do we see so much judgment, fear, and punishment in the Bible? As the Holy Spirit led him beyond old paradigms, Pieter discovered a transforming truth—God is exactly like Jesus, and His love is better than we thought. Through stories of personal breakthrough, family restoration, and a renewed vision for the Church in Europe, Pieter and Catherine explore:
 * How seeing God as a loving Father changes everything
 * Why we can’t be better parents than God is
 * How love—not fear—leads people to transformation
 * The shift from striving faith to resting in Christ’s faithfulness
 * Why the gospel is not a threat but a declaration of belonging This conversation will leave you free from fear, anchored in grace, and awakened to the reality that you were never separated from Love. “If the accusation is that the God I preach is too good to be true—I can live with that.” – Pieter Zwart * Key Scriptures: Luke 10:13, John 17:6, Acts 17:28, 1 John 4:18, Ephesians 2:8–9 Contact Pieter: Website: https://foundation4life.nl/ YouTube: @foundation4lifenl Facebook: @PieterZwart If this blessed you: • Subscribe for more conversations on God’s love, identity in Christ, and inner healing • Share this with a friend who needs hope today • Explore Catherine’s resources & community for next-step support Exhausted and worn out?

Hi listeners. It's that time of year when we all take a few of those precious moments between the holidays and starting the New Year to look back, plan ahead, and savor those moments before heading back to work. This is the final DiepCJourney® podcast of 2025 and I decided to go solo for the first time since beginning this podcast during the pandemic in January of 2021. Let's take a look back at what we have provided courtesy of my outstanding guests. I always say, a podcast is only as good as its guests, and I am so lucky to have met them via my podcast and many I have met in person. When I had my first podcast with Dr. C in January of 2021, we had been working together in this patient education advocacy space for six years. That number has now rolled over to 11 years working together and he has been a cherished guest on so many topics on the podcast. Since that first podcast in January of 2021, I have interviewed surgeons, both microsurgeons and breasts surgeons from across the world. Thank you to each of you for providing such valuable information to the listeners of the podcast. I set this podcast up originally as a stand-alone platform but now because of changes in social media platforms I am able to share most of the podcast over on the DiepCFoundation YouTube channel. You can find them on the channel listed as Podcasts if you'd like to watch them and actually see my guests. It's a fun alternative and really what some followers like over listening to the podcast. With a niche podcast like this, my priority is creating content that truly serves the community—not chasing numbers. In a space as specific as breast reconstruction, I measure success by connection and education rather than statistics. The beauty of a niche podcast is that it reaches exactly who needs it most, so I focus on value over metrics. Last year in January we kicked off the year with my friend Rory Zura of Foobs and Fitness. Understanding and knowing the research behind the benefits of exercise for breast cancer patients is so important and a topic that is asked about often. Thanks Rory! She is a survivor with her own unique story. Patients stories matter to many, not only other patients, but healthcare professionals who can improve their communication and protocols for patients based on patient stories. One of the most listened to podcast of 2025 was from Margaret Tueller Proffit, a young BRCA genetic mutation carrier who started her reconstruction with implants, transitioned to DIEP flap and then graced us with the conclusion of her reconstruction by sharing one of the best quotes I heard from a patient all year, "Go forth with confidence"! Sensation of the breast always gets a lot of listeners. Our interview with Dr. Lisa Hunsicker was popular. We tackled diastasis recti and why to repair it during DIEP with Dr. Kesley McClure of Southwest Breast and Aesthetics and found out what other procedures are performed in Phoenix at their facility with her colleague, Dr. Arvind Gowda. Dr. Craigie shared a very interesting interview with us on the delay procedure, the SIEA, and the TDAP. These alternative methods of using a patients own tissue are very important for patients who don't always find this information easily. Nipple reconstruction with Dr. Carpenter at PRMA came out of an in-person meeting we had at a microsurgery summit I attended. Thanks Dr. Carpenter for your warm smile and willingness to spend time with me to educate our audience. I invite each of you listening to use the search engine to explore all the topics we have talked about with my guest on the link I'll provide at the end of the episode details. Libsyn has been a great podcast platform for us to use so a shout out to them! As part of the resources we provide at DiepCFoundation, this podcast being one of them, we also have the DiepCFoundation YouTube channel I mentioned earlier and the DiepCJourney® blog. I want to leave you with a message from an end of the year blog I wrote just a couple of days ago. Here is the link to read the entire blog. https://diepcjourney.com/kindness-gratitude-courage-my-compass-for-2026/ Here is what I wrote: As I step into 2026, I find myself returning again and again to three simple words. Those words are kindness, gratitude, and courage. They aren't new concepts. They aren't complicated. But they have become the compass points guiding how I want to show up in the world, how I want to lead, and how I want to serve the breast cancer community that has shaped my life in ways I never could have imagined. These three words have carried me through seasons of uncertainty, moments of profound connection, and the quiet, steady work of advocacy. They have grounded me when the world felt heavy and lifted me when I needed reminding that hope is not naïve. Hope is necessary. And as I look toward the year ahead, they feel more necessary than ever. Here's to a year guided by purpose, connection, and the quiet strength that lives within us all. I cannot wait for you to listen to our guests in 2026, our sixth season. Thank you for listening and being a part of the Journey!

Hey friend. I'm so glad you're here with me today. If you're listening to this, chances are life has been feeling a little… full. Not bad. Not wrong. Just full. Between work, kids, school, meals, and all the little decisions you make from the second your feet hit the floor, it's no wonder your heart is craving rest.   I'm just sitting here in our -20 degree weather batching some episodes as our next few weeks we are going to be enjoying all the family and Grandkids.  Good day to stay inside! Today I want to talk about something that has changed my life and has changed the lives of thousands of busy moms I've walked with…Simplicity. Not the Pinterest kind. Not the everything-is-perfect kind. But the kind that actually makes your life easier. The kind that brings peace back into your home. The kind that reconnects you with the moments that matter most. Most moms don't realize this, but complexity steals our joy one tiny decision at a time. Every extra step. Every scattered routine. Every night you walk into the kitchen wondering what on earth to cook, it all chips away at your energy. And the truth is your exhaustion isn't a character flaw.It's not because you should be doing better.  You're tired because your life is overcrowded. Simplicity pulls back the layers so you can breathe again. And Scripture tells us that God is not a God of confusion, but of peace. When your life feels chaotic, it doesn't mean you've failed, it means something needs to be simplified. When moms hear the word simplify,  they think they need to add something like more organization, more color-coded systems, more complicated meal plans. But true simplicity is about removing what drains you. It's choosing fewer decisions instead of more. It's creating small repeatable rhythms so your brain doesn't have to work so hard. It's letting meals become easier by cooking once and eating all week. It's allowing grocery day to be simple by keeping the same staples on hand. It's trusting that less really is enough. When you take away the noise, you uncover a life that was already waiting for you - slower, calmer, more intentional. Simplicity doesn't just change your to-do list. It changes you. Your evenings feel peaceful instead of rushed. • Your kids get a more present, less frazzled version of you. • You start saving money because you're not grabbing takeout out of panic. • You stop living in survival mode and start living on purpose. • You begin to feel like you have your life back, even while working full-time. So many moms tell me, I didn't know it could feel this easy. But it can. And it starts with small shifts, often one simple system at a time. I didn't start out living simply, I learned it because I had to. As a nurse, I worked long shifts. I came home exhausted, hungry, and feeling like I had nothing left to give. I didn't want fast food to raise my kids, and I didn't want stress to define our home. So I started building small systems. Batch cooking. Simple routines. Staples I always kept on hand. Healthy meals that took minutes, not hours and an automated online business. And friend… that changed everything. It gave me margin. It gave me peace. It gave me time with my family that I didn't have before. And that's why I teach it now because I know what it feels like to carry more than you were ever meant to hold. If you're listening and thinking, I want this… but I don't know where to start, hear this: You don't have to overhaul your life. You don't need a planner full of color-coded tabs. You don't need a new personality. You just need one simple step. One small shift that lightens your load. And this January, I'm leading a FREE No Spend Challenge that will help you reset your budget, simplify your daily decisions, and start the year with intention, not stress & overwhelm.It's designed for the busy mom who feels like she's drowning in expenses, rushing through evenings, and wishing life could slow down. And it's completely free. Link for NO SPEND CHALLENGE -> https://stan.store/ClaimingSimplicity You can join at the link below, and each week I'll walk with you through small, simple changes that make a big difference in your spending. Friend, simplicity isn't about doing less so you can be more productive. Simplicity is about making room for what truly matters. It's about creating space for joy, presence, peace, and purpose. You deserve a life that feels lighter. You deserve systems that support you. And you deserve to live in a home where stress doesn't get the final say. I'm cheering for you, and I'm grateful we get to walk this journey together. Happy New Year Friend! Monica

In this episode, Liv breaks down why what you declare carries more power than what you quietly desire and why silence does not protect your vision, it postpones it.

La organización territorial de España es el resultado de un largo proceso histórico que refleja su diversidad cultural, política y geográfica. Desde la Antigüedad, la Península Ibérica fue un mosaico de pueblos prerromanos, pero sin unidad política. Roma impuso la primera estructura administrativa con provincias como la Tarraconense, la Bética y la Lusitania, una división que influyó en futuras fronteras. Tras la caída del Imperio Romano, los visigodos unificaron el territorio ubicando la Corte en Toledo y manteniendo a grandes rasgos la organización territorial romana, pero la invasión musulmana de 711 fragmentó la península, con un emirato que luego se transformó en califato en el sur y núcleos cristianos en el norte (Asturias y la Marca Hispánica). La Reconquista trajo reinos independientes como Castilla, León, Aragón, Navarra y los condados catalanes, que configuraron las bases de regiones actuales. Los Reyes Católicos unieron Aragón y Castilla por arriba, pero cada uno de los reinos siguió manteniendo sus instituciones y leyes propias. Felipe V tras la Guerra de Sucesión, trató de centralizar el poder con los Decretos de Nueva Planta pero Navarra y el País Vasco conservaron sus fueros. En el siglo XIX, la reforma de Javier de Burgos (1833) dividió España en 49 provincias (50 tras dividir Canarias en 1927), inspirada en modelos franceses y liberales. Buscaba uniformidad administrativa para poder gobernar de forma más racional. Esta estructura, basada en capitales provinciales y criterios puramente administrativos se mantuvo en todas las constituciones, incluyendo la de 1978, y sirvió de base para las autonomías. El concepto moderno de regiones surge en el siglo XIX, pero la autonomía regional, que tuvo un primer intento en los años de la segunda República, solo se consolidó tras la Transición. La Constitución de 1978 reconoció “nacionalidades y regiones”, creando 17 comunidades autónomas entre 1979 y 1983. Años más tarde, en 1995, las dos plazas de soberanía del norte de África (Ceuta y Melilla) se convirtieron en ciudades autónomas. Este modelo, ni federal ni unitario, equilibra centralización y descentralización y trata de adaptarse a la diversidad geográfica y cultural del país. · Canal de Telegram: https://t.me/lacontracronica · “Contra el pesimismo”… https://amzn.to/4m1RX2R · “Hispanos.

Julie Colombino-Billingham was working in disaster response 15 years ago, and was in Haiti after the earthquake of 2010. She never went back. She fell in love with the resilience and kindness of the people, and started a business with them called Deux Mains (two hands), making sustainable, fair trade leather bags and accessories - and also school shoes for students that they sell to churches and ministries to distribute. These beautiful bags are sold in Nordstrom! During the time she's been working with the people of Haiti, Julie's interviewed residents and documented her time, and launched her memoir earlier this month - it's called From Loss to Legacy: How a Fashion Business Rose from Haiti's Rubble. All book proceeds will go to REBUILD globally, a non-profit organization dedicated to fighting poverty in Haiti through education and job training.Julie wants to relay the message of the power of our purpose - that our purchases make a global impact.Deux Mains website is here: https://deuxmains.com/pages/our-story-2Instagram page: https://www.instagram.com/deuxmains_official/Facebook page: https://www.facebook.com/DeuxMainsDesigns/They're on Pinterest here: https://www.pinterest.com/deuxmainsdesigns/Julie's TedX Talk is here: https://youtu.be/XE76NResiUcSend me a message!Support the showLike this episode?

Volodímir Zelenski y Donald Trump se reunieron este domingo en Mar-a-Lago para revisar un borrador de 20 puntos destinado a poner fin a la guerra entre Ucrania y Rusia, que ya dura casi cuatro años. La reunión ha traído algo de optimismo, pero muy moderado ya que no se anunció avance alguno. Trump dijo que las conversaciones estaban siendo muy productivas y aseguró que Ucrania y Rusia están "más cerca que nunca" de un acuerdo, pero reconoció que hay obstáculos importantes en el camino, especialmente en temas territoriales. Previo al encuentro Trump mantuvo una llamada telefónica de más de dos horas con el presidente ruso, Vladimir Putin, que calificó de "excelente" y "productiva". Según Trump, Putin expresó su disposición para que Ucrania prospere tras la guerra, se comprometió incluso a facilitar a Ucrania suministros energéticos a bajo coste. Ante esto Zelenski reaccionó con escepticismo. Rusia, recordemos, ha “celebrado” la Navidad arrojando bombas sobre civiles ucranianos. El Kremlin confirmó que Putin ha aceptado crear dos grupos de trabajo: uno sobre seguridad y otro sobre asuntos económicos. Ambos comenzarán su tarea en enero del año próximo. El plan de 20 puntos, revisado por negociadores estadounidenses y ucranianos a partir de una propuesta inicial de 28 puntos muy criticada hace dos meses por ser demasiado favorable al Kremlin, contiene elementos como un referéndum en Ucrania sobre cesiones territoriales, elecciones presidenciales, garantías de seguridad inquebrantables (algo similar al Artículo 5 de la OTAN) y la creación de una "zona económica libre" desmilitarizada en ciertas áreas del Donbás. Zelenski indicó que el borrador está acordado en un 90%, con coincidencia total en las garantías de seguridad, pero persisten algunos desacuerdos importantes como el control de aproximadamente el 20% de la región de Donetsk aún bajo control ucraniano (pero que Rusia exige en su integridad), el estatus de la central nuclear de Zaporiyia (ocupada en estos momentos por Rusia) y la secuencia de un posible alto el fuego, algo que los rusos por ahora rechazan. Trump insistió en la complejidad del proceso: "Esto no es un acuerdo de un día, es algo muy complicado” afirmó al tiempo que indicaba que un acuerdo definitivo podría demorarse semanas en alcanzarse. Eso sí, advirtió que, sin él, la guerra continuaría con más víctimas. Zelenski, por su parte, destacó la necesidad de mantener la presión sobre Rusia mediante sanciones y la defensa antiaérea, más aún tras los recientes ataques rusos que han dejado amplias zonas de de Ucrania sin electricidad. Desde Moscú el ministro de asuntos exteriores, Sergei Lavrov, criticó a Europa por ser, a su juicio, el "obstáculo principal para la paz" y acusó a Zelenski de no estar listo para unas negociaciones constructivas. El Kremlin se reserva, además, perseguir sus objetivos militares si no se alcanza ningún acuerdo. Tanto el enviado especial para Ucrania, Steve Witkoff, como el yerno de Trump, Jared Kushner, y el secretario de Estado, Marco Rubio, participan activamente en un proceso en el que, al menos por ahora, se está dejando básicamente de lado a las potencias europeas.

Episode 314: Ellie's back as the resident trend predictor, and this episode is all about what's coming next for 2026, before your customers start asking for it. Lori, Vonda, and Ellie dig into Pinterest Predicts 2026 (yes, the data-driven one) and compare it to floral-industry trend insights, pulling out what actually matters for florists and flower shop owners. From the internet's strong opinions on the “color of the year,” to cool blue taking over everything, to vintage details making a comeback, to scent-stacking, playful candy-colored ideas, and even the surprise “cabbage” moment - this one is packed with inspiration you can translate into real designs and real marketing. The big takeaway: you don't have to chase every trend, just pick a few, use them strategically, and stay one step ahead.Pinterest Predicts™: Top Trends for 2026Sponsored by: Flower CliqueFlower Clique Prep SchoolReal Life Retail Florist

As this year comes to a close, I've been reflecting on the lessons it's brought me, and honestly, it's been a big one. A year of growth, surrender, unexpected changes, and a lot of learning. In today's episode, I'm sharing the top ten things this year has taught me - not because I've mastered them, but because there's something powerful in pausing, looking back, and acknowledging how far we've come. These reflections aren't about perfection or ticking boxes; they're about self-awareness, compassion, and recognising the woman you've become through every challenge and every small win. And I'd love for you to do this exercise too. You might be surprised by how much strength, resilience, and quiet transformation this year has held for you. Links mentioned in the episode:  Check out Episode 435 - Lessons learned in 2024 and how to apply them in 2025 To go with this episode, I've created a free Year-End Reflection Guide to help you unpack your own lessons from the past year.

If you're stepping into a new year hoping things will finally be different, you're not alone. But here's the truth most of us were never taught: real transformation doesn't happen through self-help, white-knuckling your goals, or trying to reinvent yourself. Real transformation begins with God's love—not your effort. In today's episode, I'm sharing: Why New Year's resolutions tend to collapse under their own weight A personal story of how my own plans for 2025 were upended—and how God redirected me toward a fresh start instead of another do-over How the Samaritan woman's story reveals the difference between starting over and receiving a fresh start rooted in God's love What it looks like to release the pressure to fix yourself and let God lead you into lasting change If you're craving a new beginning in 2026—one that's grounded in God, not reinvention—this episode will help you see what's possible when you let God love you into transformation. ✨ Want support as you step into a fresh start?

The episode centers on the process of locality research for Cass County, Georgia, as Diana continues her project to find the father of Cynthia (Dillard) Royston. Diana explains her research objective is to discover a candidate for Cynthia's father residing in the county during the 1830s. Nicole discusses the importance of narrowing the time frame for a locality guide, focusing on the county's earliest years from 1832 to 1860. They then compare their process for utilizing the Deep Research capabilities of large language models (LLMs) to create the guide, sharing their query and noting the varying results from Claude, Perplexity, ChatGPT, and Gemini. Diana and Nicole discuss two crucial findings that impacted their research strategy. They detail the county's name change from Cass to Bartow in 1861 due to General Lewis Cass's Union sympathies and the Confederacy's desire to honor Colonel Francis S. Bartow. They also review the record loss event from the courthouse burning in 1864, explaining that many records like deed and marriage books were saved by the heroic efforts of County Clerk Tom Word. Additionally, they summarize the 1832 Cherokee Land Lottery, which was the method for distributing land and attracting settlers to the area. Listeners learn how to efficiently use AI to create a comprehensive locality guide and gain valuable insight into how events like name changes, record loss, and land distribution fundamentally shape genealogical records.

In this episode of Healthy Mind, Healthy Life, host Avik sits down with bestselling author and keynote speaker David McNally to explore what it truly means to age with vitality. David reframes “successful aging” away from surface markers like money or staying busy, and toward something deeper: rich life experiences, meaningful contribution, and a compelling reason to get up each morning. He shares how many people feel lost after retirement because their sense of relevance was validated externally—through meetings, emails, and titles—until it suddenly disappears. The remedy, he explains, is finding relevance from within by rediscovering mission, gifts, and service. David offers grounded, practical ways to reconnect with purpose: reflect on what inspires you, who inspires you, and what fulfills you, then choose where your talents can add value. He also challenges the “too old” mindset, emphasizing that creativity expires only when we do—and that the brain and imagination can keep expanding. Finally, he highlights acceptance and peace of mind as essential to aging well, and recommends simple daily habits like journaling, reading something uplifting, and doing one small act to improve someone else's day. About the Guest: David McNally is a bestselling author (Even Eagles Need a Push, Be Your Own Brand, and If You Are Alive, Your Mission on Earth Isn't Finished), award-winning documentary producer, and Speaker's Hall of Fame member. His work focuses on purpose, resilience, and human potential, shaped by profound personal loss and his own health journey. Key Takeaways: Measure success by experiences, meaning, and relationships—not just achievements. Purpose is a “reason to get up,” especially after work life ends. Retirement can trigger a relevance gap; rebuild relevance from the inside out. Ask: What inspires me? Who inspires me? What fulfills me? Creativity doesn't expire with age—growth is still available. Acceptance creates peace of mind: control what you can, release what you can't. Daily habits: journal/reflect, read uplifting material, move toward a goal, help someone.

Police Shot by a Mass Murderer: She Survived and the City's Response Shocked Her. Special Episode. The phrase line of duty often feels abstract, until a single moment changes everything. For former Richmond, Virginia police officer Cheryl Ann Nici-O'Connell, that moment came in October of 1984, when a routine off-duty assignment turned into a life-altering ambush by a fugitive mass murderer. Look for The Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast on social media like their Facebook , Instagram , LinkedIn , Medium and other social media platforms. Now, decades later, her story is being shared in a special episode of the Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast, available across Facebook, Instagram, Apple Podcasts, Spotify, and YouTube, and most major podcast platforms. It's not just as a story of survival, but as a powerful account of resilience, recovery, and a troubling response from the very city she served. Supporting articles about this and much more from Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast in platforms like Medium , Blogspot and Linkedin . An Ordinary Shift That Became a Nightmare At just 24 years old, Officer Cheryl Nici-O'Connell was working an off-duty uniformed job at the Richmond Marriott Hotel on a Friday night, hoping to earn some extra income. At the same time, law enforcement across the Richmond area was urgently searching for a suspect wanted in a triple murder and the attempted murder of a sheriff's deputy. Police Shot by a Mass Murderer: She Survived and the City's Response Shocked Her. Special Episode. Available for free on their website and streaming on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, Youtube and other podcast platforms. Unknowingly, Nici-O'Connell came face-to-face with that very fugitive. “I was ambush attacked and shot in the head from three-to-five feet away by a total stranger,” she recalled. The gunman aimed directly at her temple, firing a .357 Magnum loaded with a .38-caliber round. The bullet entered her face, tore through her mouth, and lodged just an eighth of an inch from her carotid artery. Doctors did not expect her to survive the night. “It Looked Like Red Paint Was Being Poured Over Everything” The moments after the shooting are forever etched into her memory. “The next thing I know, I heard a loud explosion,” she said. “I looked toward Broad Street, and everything was blurry. It looked like someone was pouring red paint over a picture of Broad Street.” Police Shot by a Mass Murderer: She Survived and the City's Response Shocked Her. Special Episode. The Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast episode is available for free on their website , Apple Podcasts , Spotify and most major podcast platforms. Against all odds, she lived. Her survival, she says, was not hers alone. “I'm here to tell you if it was not for the support of the police officers I worked with, and also the Richmond community, I would not be here today.” That support, from fellow officers and everyday citizens, stood in stark contrast to what followed. The Aftermath: Survival Was Only the Beginning While Cheryl Nici-O'Connell fought through a long and painful recovery, she also faced what she describes as shocking treatment by city government after the shooting. In the podcast interview, she speaks candidly about the challenges that came not from the gunshot wound, but from navigating a system that failed to fully support a wounded officer. Police Shot by a Mass Murderer: She Survived and the City's Response Shocked Her. Special Episode. The special episode can be found on The Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast website, on Apple podcasts, Spotify, Youtube and on LinkedIn, Facebook, Instagram, and across most podcast platforms where listeners will find authentic law enforcement stories. Her attacker was eventually arrested, tried, and sentenced to multiple life terms. Yet the trauma never truly ended. In 2002, and nearly every year since, Nici-O'Connell has been required to relive the attack during parole hearings. “I wish I could forget,” she said quietly. Turning Pain Into Purpose Today, Cheryl Nici-O'Connell is retired from law enforcement but far from finished serving. She is actively involved with Richmond United for Law Enforcement, an organization founded on January 2, 2015, dedicated to bringing together law enforcement and the Metro Richmond and Tri-Cities communities of Virginia. Police Shot by a Mass Murderer: She Survived and the City's Response Shocked Her. Special Episode. The full podcast episode is streaming now on their website, on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, Youtube and across Facebook, Instagram, and LinkedIn. Her story, shared through interviews, public speaking, and now this special podcast episode, stands as a reminder of the real human cost behind the badge, and the responsibility cities have to care for those who put their lives on the line. “I still work to help others,” she says, a testament to a resilience forged in unimaginable circumstances. A Story That Still Matters Cheryl Nici-O'Connell's journey is not just about surviving a bullet fired by a mass murderer. It is about accountability, compassion, and the long road officers walk after the headlines fade. Police Shot by a Mass Murderer: She Survived and the City's Response Shocked Her. Special Episode.

This Clubhouse marketing session explores the multifaceted world of Restaurant SEO and its application to local businesses. Favour details how establishing a strong digital presence through third-party platforms like Uber Eats and DoorDash creates a "franchise SEO" ecosystem that builds brand authority. The discussion emphasizes off-page strategies, such as connecting Google Business profiles and social media links, to drive traffic and foster community trust. Participants also examine the role of multimedia content, suggesting that podcasts and videos can humanize a brand by showcasing chef interviews or cooking processes. Beyond restaurants, the conversation expands to cover niche industries like private investigation, highlighting how AI-driven search and reputation management are reshaping modern visibility. Ultimately, the sources advocate for a strategic blend of long-term organic growth and immediate paid advertising to maintain a competitive edge.Restaurant SEO: Uber Eats, Grubhub and DoorDash Marketing Tactical Strategies with Favour Obasi-ike with Favour Obasi-Ike | Sign up for exclusive SEO insights.-------------------------------------------------------------------------Next Steps for Booking A Discovery Call | Digital Marketing + SEO Services:>> ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Need SEO Services?

This foundational understanding is critical for any business reliant on a physical location for customer visits, from restaurants and local stores to farm markets. At [00:01:15], the host defines Restaurant SEO as local SEO with a "restaurant tag" on it, emphasizing its importance for driving traffic, generating tangible results, and gathering customer feedback—all vital for a local establishment's growth.By [00:03:30], the conversation introduces two key strategies for extending a restaurant's online reach. The first is Franchise SEO, which involves leveraging third-party platforms with active communities, such as DoorDash, GrubHub, OpenTable, and NextDoor. Listing a restaurant on these services creates powerful backlinks to its primary website, enhancing its authority. The second is Off-Page SEO, which refers to activities on other digital platforms, primarily social media sites like Facebook, Instagram, and TikTok. Connecting these profiles back to the main website helps build a robust online presence and authority. These definitions set the stage for the episode's central strategic debate on driving business growth.[00:10:00] The Core Debate: SEO for Trust vs. Ads for ImmediacyThis section frames the episode's central conflict, presenting two competing yet complementary philosophies for driving restaurant growth. The speakers weigh the immediate, traffic-driving power of paid advertising against the long-term, trust-building foundation of a solid SEO strategy.At [00:11:45], John makes a strong case for prioritizing paid advertising, asserting that restaurants "need customers now." He argues that paid strategies, such as a proven Facebook advertising model, are the most effective tools for immediate results and that SEO should be considered a secondary, long-term project. At [00:15:20], another speaker supports John's point on the need for immediacy, using a practical example to illustrate the customer mindset: "if I want chicken wings, I'm not worried about SEO."By [00:18:00], Favour presents the counter-argument, clarifying that SEO's primary role is to build trust and credibility before a sale can occur. He uses the analogy of a "red flag" for anyone promising immediate sales directly from SEO. The group reaches a consensus that a balanced approach is best: ads are essential for short-term traffic, while SEO serves as the indispensable long-term foundation for sustainable growth and brand authority. The conversation then transitions from this high-level strategy debate to a specific, actionable content strategy proposed by the host.[00:25:00] A Creative Content Strategy: The Restaurant PodcastThis segment introduces a novel and powerful idea for restaurants to differentiate themselves and build a deep, trust-based relationship with their community. The speakers frame podcasting as a way for a restaurant to move beyond simple listings and reviews to become a true content creator and community hub.At [00:26:10], the host proposes that a restaurant should start its own podcast, utilizing both audio and video formats to engage potential customers on a deeper level. By [00:27:30], the group brainstorms a range of compelling content ideas, including video recipes, cooking tutorials, and culinary tips; interviews with the restaurant's chefs to discuss their creative process; discussions on the quality and sourcing of ingredients; answering frequently asked questions from customers; exploring the history and cultural significance of the cuisine; collaborating with beverage brands featured on the menu; taste tests and sampling sessions; customer testimonials; and behind-the-scenes looks at special events or cookouts.By [00:30:00], the primary strategic goal of this podcasting strategy is articulated: to build profound trust by allowing customers to discover aspects of the restaurant they would never think to search for, thereby creating a stronger and more resilient brand connection. This discussion on creating unique content naturally leads to the technical necessity of structuring that content correctly on the restaurant's website.[00:33:00] Technical SEO Deep Dive: The Menu is Your WebsiteThis section uncovers a critical and often-overlooked technical SEO mistake that can severely handicap a restaurant's online visibility. The speakers reveal how relying on seemingly convenient third-party systems for menu hosting can prevent a restaurant from capitalizing on valuable search traffic.At [00:34:05], a speaker highlights the significant failure of using platforms like Toast that consolidate an entire menu onto a single landing page. He explains that this approach misses the opportunity to have 25 separate, indexable pages for a 25-item menu. By [00:36:15], the impact of this mistake is clarified: individual menu item pages should be treated like e-commerce products. Each page is capable of generating its own organic traffic and ranking for highly specific searches, such as "best chicken wings in [city]."The solution, discussed at [00:38:40], is to structure the restaurant's website so that each menu item has its own dedicated page. Each page should be optimized with rich descriptions, proper titles, and an easy-to-use ordering system, thereby maximizing the restaurant's "footprints and stamps across the internet." The conversation then shifts from these on-site technical details to the broader, future-facing topic of visibility within emerging AI search engines.[00:42:00] The Future: AI Visibility and Advanced AutomationSetting the stage for a forward-looking discussion, the experts explore how the concept of "being found" is expanding beyond traditional search engines. The focus shifts to include AI-powered Large Language Models (LLMs) and the new opportunities they present for visibility and automation.At [00:43:10], the group discusses the growing importance of "AI Visibility." This involves ensuring a restaurant's information appears when users ask direct questions to AI chatbots like ChatGPT (e.g., "what's the best sushi restaurant near me?"). They also touch on how platforms like Perplexity can be leveraged for rapid ranking within these new search paradigms.By [00:45:00], the concept of using AI agents and automation for SEO tasks is introduced. A speaker provides a powerful example of using a tool like N8N to create an agent that can log into a website daily and automatically optimize product titles. He elevates this concept by explaining the goal is to move beyond simple email reports and "upgrade to the voice agents... and my AI gives me a phone call about the listings that's been optimized," emphasizing a future where an AI proactively works and reports, even waking the owner from sleep with critical updates.At [00:47:25], the speakers identify some of the foundational data sources that LLMs use to answer queries, such as SERP API and DuckDuckGo. This highlights the necessity for businesses to be listed and visible in these core digital infrastructures to appear in AI-generated results. This look into the future of search concludes the main discussion.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

In this podcast episode, host Favour Obasi-Ike sits down with international conflict management expert Dr. Nashay Lowe to reveal how AI can serve as the ultimate mirror, reflecting our hidden biases and transforming how we communicate.Episode SummaryThis conversation delves into the strategic importance of understanding Artificial Intelligence not merely as a technological advancement, but as a transformative tool for enhancing professional communication, streamlining problem-solving, and fostering profound self-reflection. Dr. Nashay Lowe guides us through the necessary mindset shift required to harness AI's power, moving beyond skepticism to see its potential as an indispensable partner in complex human endeavors.The discussion charts a journey from initial resistance to a nuanced appreciation of AI's role in the modern workplace. Favour Obasi-Ike and Dr. Nashay Lowe dissect the common fear that AI will replace human jobs, reframing the technology as a "power tool" that augments human capability rather than rendering it obsolete.Dr. Nashay Lowe states that the real professional risk isn't being replaced by AI, but by a colleague who masters it. The conversation culminates in a powerful central metaphor: AI as an objective mirror. As Dr. Nashay Lowe states, "Conflict reveals who we are, it doesn't create our divisions it reflects them." In the same way, AI offers a unique ability to reflect our communication patterns and strategic gaps without the inherent lens of a human observer.Ultimately, the episode reveals that AI's effectiveness is entirely dependent on human guidance. Through skillful prompting, critical questioning, and a commitment to ethical use, professionals can leverage AI to see their challenges, and themselves, with unprecedented clarity. This episode provides a compelling roadmap for anyone looking to integrate AI thoughtfully into their work.These are the essential insights you need to navigate this new landscape.Key TakeawaysThis section distills the most critical and actionable insights from the conversation with Dr. Nashay Lowe. These takeaways serve as foundational principles for any professional seeking to adapt to and thrive in an increasingly AI-integrated world, transforming a complex technology into a practical asset for growth and efficiency.AI is an Evolutionary Tool, Not an EnemyResisting AI is akin to resisting the adoption of computers or smartphones—a futile effort against an inevitable technological evolution. The true professional threat is not being replaced by AI itself, but by someone who masters AI as a tool to work more efficiently and effectively. Adaptation is no longer optional; it's a core professional competency.AI Serves as an Objective MirrorThe most powerful application of AI in subjective fields like conflict management is its ability to act as a mirror to our own communication patterns, biases, and choices. By analyzing language and scenarios without a human's inherent emotional or experiential lens, it can reveal subtle tensions, repetitive biases, and strategic blind spots that we might otherwise miss.Human Input Dictates AI OutputThe value of AI is not in the technology alone, but in the user's ability to guide it. Dr. Nashay Lowe emphasizes the necessity of iterative prompting, asking critical questions, and providing specific context to achieve nuanced results. A generic prompt yields a generic answer; a thoughtful, challenging prompt unlocks a deeper level of analysis and creativity.AI Can Augment, But Not Replace, EmpathyWhile AI lacks genuine consciousness or empathy, it serves as an invaluable diagnostic tool. Dr. Nashay Lowe powerfully argues that AI can remind us where empathy is missing in our strategies and communications. It can highlight a failure to consider another perspective or identify language that lacks warmth, prompting the human user to inject the necessary emotional intelligence.The User is the Ultimate Guardian of PrivacyAs AI systems become more deeply integrated with our personal and professional data streams, the user's responsibility grows exponentially. The conversation highlights the valid paranoia around connecting AI to sensitive information. The key takeaway is that the user must proactively manage data connections and maintain confidentiality, for instance, by using anonymized scenarios rather than identifiable information.These core principles provide a framework for leveraging AI not just as a machine, but as a partner in professional development.Detailed Episode Timestamps & NotesThis structured guide provides a detailed breakdown of the episode's key moments and discussions. Use these timestamps to navigate directly to the topics and insights that are most relevant to your professional journey.[00:00:00] Introduction: The Power of Human ConnectionHost Favour Obasi-Ike and Dr. Nashay Lowe reflect on their meeting in Las Vegas, emphasizing how valuable real-world, in-person connections are for creating professional opportunities, including this very podcast episode.[00:02:15] Meet Dr. Nashay Lowe: Proactive Strategy Over Reactive Problem-SolvingDr. Nashay Lowe outlines her background in international conflict management and her current mission. She applies global frameworks to local conflicts in academic and nonprofit sectors, aiming to shift leaders from "putting out fires" to implementing proactive strategies. Her goal is to create long-term, healthy habits rather than relying on ineffective "one-off" workshops.[00:04:30] Navigating AI Skepticism: A Necessary Mindset ShiftDr. Nashay Lowe addresses the common resistance to AI, framing it as a crucial mindset shift. She draws parallels to the initial skepticism surrounding cell phones and computers, arguing that AI is an evolving tool that will inevitably become integrated into every aspect of our lives. Adaptation is key.[00:06:45] The AI & Human Partnership: More Power Tool, Less ReplacementThe conversation reframes AI not as a replacement for humans, but as a tool that enhances efficiency. Dr. Nashay Lowe shares a powerful analogy from her partner, comparing the evolution of work to building a house with a hammer and nail versus a power tool, the goal is the same, but the right tool makes the process faster and more efficient.[00:10:10] AI in Conflict Management: Reflecting Our DivisionsThis segment explores the episode's central thesis. Dr. Nashay Lowe explains, "Conflict reveals who we are, it doesn't create our divisions it reflects them. And so artificial intelligence to me works much of the same way." She argues that AI can serve as an objective mirror in the subjective process of conflict resolution, identifying patterns and biases that a human mediator, operating through their own lens, might overlook.[00:14:00] The Emerging Frontier: AI as a Therapeutic ToolDr. Nashay Lowe notes the surprising trend of people using generative AI like ChatGPT for therapeutic purposes. She shares an anecdote about users having "meltdowns" on TikTok after a software update made the AI seem less "nice," underscoring the complex, human-like relationships people are beginning to form with the technology.[00:17:30] Using AI Responsibly: The Art of the PromptThis section focuses on the principle that AI's output is only as good as its input. Dr. Lowe explains the importance of prompting AI to challenge your assumptions ("Don't confirm what I'm already telling you") rather than simply validating them. Responsible use involves an iterative process of refining the AI's output with specific human feedback.[00:20:45] Privacy vs. Progress: The Security DilemmaDr. Nashay Lowe addresses the valid security and privacy concerns surrounding AI's integration with personal data like emails, calendars, and financial accounts. She contrasts this risk with a practical strategy for maintaining confidentiality in her work: using anonymized scenarios ("Person ABC") to analyze conflicts without exposing personally identifiable information.[00:25:00] Crafting Dialogue: A Masterclass in SpecificityDr. Nashay Lowe provides a masterclass on using AI to develop communication scripts. Her method involves giving the AI a specific persona ("You are a 25-year vet in conflict management") and, crucially, directing it to pull information from credible, specific sources like peer-reviewed journals. She continually refines the output with detailed feedback until it meets the desired tone and substance.[00:30:10] Dr. Lowe's Core Message: A Reminder Where Empathy is MissingDr. Nashay Lowe delivers her powerful final takeaway. She concludes that AI can never replace essential human qualities like presence, listening, or humility.

In this episode, I'm sharing one of the best Christmas gifts I've ever given myself: having my entire house professionally cleaned and organized. It wasn't about perfection or having a Pinterest-worthy home. It was about peace. Clearing the physical clutter helped me quiet the mental noise and step into a new season feeling lighter, calmer, and more grounded. I also share where I shop for the everyday items that help keep our home running smoothly. I've linked everything I use and love through my Amazon storefront, LTK, and Shop My so you can easily find the tools and systems that actually work for real life. We wrap up the episode with a conversation around goal setting and vision boards. If you're feeling pressure heading into a new year, this is your reminder that you don't need a perfect plan or big, dramatic goals. You just need clarity on how you want your life to feel and permission to grow gently. This episode is an encouragement to reset, simplify, and move into your next season with intention and confidence. ✨ What I Talk About in This Episode Holiday Hustle Free week of workouts Having a baby in 2026?

En las últimas décadas la alianza transatlántica ha sido un pilar esencial del orden mundial. Esta alianza surgió tras la Segunda Guerra Mundial y se fortaleció al término de la Guerra Fría. Europeos y estadounidenses comparten, aparte de cultura, valores como la democracia liberal, el Estado de derecho, el gobierno limitado y el libre comercio. Esa visión del mundo evitó grandes conflictos, derrotó al comunismo y impulsó la prosperidad de posguerra. Hoy, sin embargo, muchos dudan de que es alianza pueda sobrevivir. El canciller alemán Friedrich Merz, conservador y tradicionalmente atlantista, declaró recientemente que lo que entendíamos como Occidente ya no existe. Al mismo tiempo ha pedido a los europeos que prioricen sus intereses. Sus palabras no son más que el reflejo de un sentimiento generalizado en Europa: un enfriamiento profundo en las relaciones transatlánticas, con temores incluso a una ruptura total mientras Trump sea presidente. El núcleo del conflicto radica en visiones distintas sobre lo que es "Occidente". La administración Trump acusa a Europa de traicionar a la civilización occidental ya que, por culpa de la inmigración, está diluyendo sus raíces. Asegura también que la democracia se encuentra en muy mal estado en el viejo continente. Pero los datos no avalan esa afirmación. EEUU tiene muchos más inmigrantes que la Unión Europea, tanto legales como ilegales. Además, los índices internacionales que analizan la calidad de las democracias muestran como las democracias europeas son de promedio más robustas que la estadounidense. Europa, además, carece de ambiciones expansionistas, a diferencia de los planes trumpistas de anexionar Canadá, Groenlandia o la zona del canal de Panamá. Esa retórica inflamada ha pasado al campo de la acción. La hostilidad verbal es continua, los aranceles punitivos, el plan de paz para Ucrania parece redactado en Moscú y la Estrategia de Seguridad Nacional que presentaron hace unas semanas es un ataque directo contra sus aliados europeos. Con ella pretenden intervenir directamente en la política europea para apoyar a ciertos partidos antiinmigración que a menudo son también prorrusos. La cuestión es que Occidente no se define por una etnia o una religión, sino por un tipo de sociedad abierta que descansa sobre la libertad individual, la tolerancia, el pluralismo político, la democracia liberal y el libre mercado. Estos valores son los que Europa y EEUU han defendido de la mano en las últimas ocho décadas. Se han exportado además con éxito a otras partes del mundo. Trump simplemente proyecta las guerras culturales internas estadounidenses sobre Europa, donde no se han presentado con la misma virulencia. El hecho es que el orden mundial tal y como está concebido beneficia fundamentalmente a Estados Unidos, que siempre ha contado con una extensa red mundial de aliados voluntarios e incondicionales, cosa que, por ejemplo, nunca ha tenido China. Romper con ella implica riesgos a largo plazo que no están queriendo o no están sabiendo ver en la Casa Blanca.

Have you ever looked back at a year and realized it took more from you than you expected—but somehow gave you exactly what you needed? This episode is for the high achiever who's tired of glorifying hustle culture, pushing through exhaustion, and calling burnout “just a phase.” If you're craving success and softness, ambition and alignment, this conversation is for you. In today's special end-of-year episode, I'm closing out 2025 by sharing 25 real, lived lessons I learned while juggling a demanding nine-to-five, building my skincare brand, hosting this podcast, and navigating burn out, ambition, money, boundaries, and self-trust. This isn't Pinterest advice. This is grounded truth for women who are doing a lot — and want to feel good while doing it. We're talking: Why hustle culture fails high-achieving women How self care actually works in real life (not just on weekends) The systems that helped me regulate my nervous system and protect my peace Why ambition doesn't have to cost you your health And how reinvention is always available to you If 2025 stretched you, humbled you, or forced you to grow in ways you didn't ask for — you're not behind. You're becoming. The woman you're stepping into is built through small, intentional choices. Alignment over pressure. Rest over burnout. Peace over performance. ✨ Share this episode with a fellow boss babe who's recovering from hustle culture ⭐ Leave a 5-star rating & review — it's the best way to support the show and help more women find these conversations
