Podcasts about Plan

Romans 8:28-30 — The purposes of human beings are often frustrated and thwarted by others. They work out every detail in order to ensure the working out of their plan, only to find out that it was all for nothing. What about God's plan? What about God's purpose in salvation and history? Does the triune God shift His plans according to circumstances provoked by sinful people and demonic opposition? In this sermon on Romans 8:28–30 titled “God's Plan is Certain,” Dr. Martyn Lloyd-Jones expounds on Paul's teaching on the absolute, definite plan of God. His plan of salvation did not originate after the fall of humanity, nor is salvation in Christ a response to Israel's rejection of salvation through the law, but the Father's plan to send the Son and obtain salvation for His people was ordained before the foundation of the world. The definite plan of God in salvation, says Dr. Lloyd-Jones, must be true or God is no longer God. Furthermore, God's foreknowledge and predestination is a means of comfort for suffering believers. Listen as Dr. Lloyd-Jones teaches on the glorious truth that justification to glorification is certain because it is in the sovereign control of the triune God.

Hello and welcome to another episode of Authentically ADHD. I'm Carmen, and today we're diving into how the holiday season feels through the eyes (and brain) of someone with AuDHD – that is, co-occurring autism and ADHD. For many of us, the holidays can feel less “holly jolly” and more like a perfect storm of stress. In this episode we'll explore why the season can be extra hard, what it looks and feels like, and science-backed strategies to survive (and maybe even enjoy) the holidays. Whether you're a newly diagnosed adult or a parent of a neurodivergent child, this one's for you.What Is AuDHD? (Autism + ADHD)First, a quick science check. Autism and ADHD often go hand in hand. In fact, research suggests roughly 50–70% of autistic people also meet criteria for ADHD. Likewise, about two-thirds of people with ADHD have another condition like autism. In plain terms, having AuDHD means your brain experiences both sets of traits – the social-pragmatic and sensory sensitivities of autism and the attention-dopamine challenges of ADHD.This combination can feel like a constant tug-of-war in the mind. One part of you craves novelty and spontaneity (hello, ADHD!), while another part craves predictability and routine (hello, autism!). Imagine loving new experiences but also needing your favorite cookie recipe exactly the same every year. The result? It can be disorienting: you might feel like you “don't fit” neatly into either camp. Some people with AuDHD describe it as an internal “tug-of-war” or seesaw: one side impulsive and messy, the other organized and anxious to plan.In practice, AuDHD often means compensating and crashing. For example, someone's autism-driven focus might compensate for their ADHD-driven distractibility at work, or vice versa – ADHD-driven chaos can overwhelm autistic need-for-order, leaving them paralyzed by overwhelm. Dopamine is also at play: ADHD brains naturally crave dopamine and may impulsively seek novelty to get it. This can collide with autistic routines (which prefer sameness), causing even more internal conflict. All of this can be exhausting, but it also means AuDHD brains are vividly tuned in and often intensely creative. Think of it as life on high-intensity mode – colorful and chaotic, requiring constant balancing.Why the Holidays Are Extra ChallengingNow layer on the holidays, and the pressure cooker heats way up. Even neurotypical people report elevated stress: one survey found 62% of adults felt “very or somewhat” more stressed during the holidays than at other times of year. But for AuDHD brains, the holidays can amplify every stressor:Routines Disrupted: The holidays upend our anchors. School break means new daily rhythms, late nights, irregular meals – everything that might keep an autistic-AuDHD person grounded gets flipped. As one ND observer notes, “routines are often our anchor, and when they're pulled away, it can leave us adrift”. Even small changes (late start on Monday, new host home, delayed bedtime) can throw our whole system off.Sensory Overload: Holiday sights, sounds, and smells come at you hard. Think bright lights, loud music, clanging dishes, lots of chatter, and maybe even firecrackers or poppers. These environments can push a neurodivergent nervous system into sensory overwhelm. In fact, decorations blaring carols while a dozen relatives talk at once – that's the classic recipe for sensory overload. Neuroscience explains it as bombarding the five senses: your brain goes into fight-or-flight mode, and it can stay on high alert even after you're home. One ADHD resource describes this: “the body's nervous system shifts into ‘fight-or-flight' mode… After the event, the body may remain on high alert, struggling to return to a relaxed baseline – leading to fatigue, overstimulation, and emotional shutdown.”. In short, holiday clamor can fry an AuDHD brain.Social and Family Dynamics: Holidays often mean forced proximity. You're expected to play nice at a crowded party, join in traditions, maybe hug or kiss relatives, and make small talk. That's a lot of unstructured social juggling. Neurodivergent people often need more downtime than society assumes, but the holidays cram intense social demands into the shortest days of winter. Feeling like you should be joyful and festive can clash with feeling drained, anxious, or withdrawn. This is the “disconnect between ‘should' and ‘feel'” one psychologist talks about: everyone else is pretending joy, but you might feel agitated, melancholic, or exhausted instead. In fact, holiday stress can bring out “regressive” feelings: snapping at family, ruminating on past hurts, or longing for a perfect moment that never happens.Executive Overload: Then there's all the planning and to-dos. Making a menu, shopping for gifts, wrapping, hosting – the holiday season can demand supercharged executive function. Neuroscience shows that high demands on the prefrontal cortex (the brain's planning center) can impair memory and even slow down new brain cell growth. In other words, tackling 1,000 tasks can literally short-circuit our focus and memory. A coaching article notes that the “mental burden” of remembering everything impedes memory and interferes with brain-cell production. Even if you usually manage your ADHD well, the holiday juggle can make you feel like you're losing control. It's no wonder stress and forgetfulness skyrocket.Emotional Intensity: Holidays can stir deep emotions. The idea of a “perfect family celebration” is a myth, and that gap can trigger sadness, anxiety, or frustration. A 1950s concept called “Holiday Syndrome” described it well: diffuse anxiety, irritability, helplessness, and nostalgic/bitter rumination about past experiences. Many people (autistic or not) feel a low-grade hum of agitation or melancholy under the tinsel and carols If you're also AuDHD, ADHD's emotional dysregulation can supercharge those feelings. Research on ADHD shows that after a high-energy event, brains can “crash” with deep fatigue or emptiness as dopamine levels plummet. So after a big family gathering you might feel emotionally drained – like you've hit a wall. As one expert puts it, the ADHD brain gets a dopamine surge in the moment, then a drop afterward, leading to confusion and exhaustion. Cue the tears or irritability after the decorations are taken down.In short, every holiday pressure – social expectations, sensory chaos, broken routines, endless chores – hits AuDHD brains all at once. It's like the perfect neurodivergent stress cocktail. One Autism/ADHD coach even calls the holidays “every AuDHD stressor at once”: unpredictability + social evaluation + sensory intensity + disrupted routines. No wonder we might feel totally fried by Dec 25.FOCUSED & PATREON ADWhat It Feels Like: Overwhelm, Meltdowns, and MaskingSo what does all that actually feel like? Picture this: You step into a brightly lit living room filled with holiday music, clinking dishes, and chatty people. Immediately, your senses are on high alert. You feel your heart rate up (fight-or-flight kick in), your thoughts start racing, and your tolerance for noise plummets. You might grit your teeth through forced smiles, struggling to follow 5 conversations at once. In that moment, you're using every bit of your brain's executive function – planning what to say, filtering stimulation, remembering everyone's names, and suppressing the urge to bolt for silence. It's exhausting.Later, when you finally escape, you might hit the proverbial wall. Suddenly you feel mentally numb, weepy, or totally blank. This is the classic AuDHD “crash.” As one ADHD writer explains, after the stimulus ends “your brain experiences a dopamine drop – leading to emotional disorientation, fatigue, or a deep sense of emptiness.”. You could become super-snappy or oversensitive (even minor things trigger tears or rage). You might replay awkward conversations and feel a wave of guilt or paranoia. Or you might simply withdraw – closing your eyes, zoning out, or curling up until you “recharge.” These aren't just mood swings; they're neurological reactions to overload.Kids and adults alike can shut down too – becoming nonverbal, hiding, or refusing to participate. You might have meltdowns (full emotional blow-ups) or shutdowns (going blank). It might look like bursts of crying, rage, or stimming (repetitive self-soothing behaviors). This is especially common if surprises disrupt expected plans. And if you're masking (pretending to be “normal”), this takes even more energy. One psychologist notes that neurodivergent folks “must mask extra hard” during holidays when everyone expects cheer, which makes us even more exhausted and anxious.If you're a parent, you might watch your neurodivergent child display these behaviors. Maybe your teen suddenly “shuts down” mid-game, or your kindergarten child bursts into tears over a drop of water on a new shirt. They might meltdown over something as small as being served pie in a different dish, or hyperfocus on one toy ignoring the party around them. Either way, the feeling inside is similar: overwhelmed, dysregulated, and just done.It may help to know: You are not alone and not wrong. Feeling relief when others appear joyful, or feeling resentful for holiday expectations, is normal for AuDHD brains. Our nervous systems truly react differently under holiday stress. The good news from neuroscience is that holiday stress is usually acute, not chronic – our brains tend to bounce back once the season is over. But during the season, we need real strategies to cope.Science-Backed Strategies for Managing OverwhelmNow, let's talk solutions. Neurobiology isn't just doom and gloom – it also suggests practical fixes. Below are some evidence-informed strategies that target the very stressors we discussed. Think of these as your AuDHD holiday survival kit. You don't have to use all of them, but the more you prepare your brain, the smoother this season can be.1. Maintain Structure and RoutineWhenever possible, keep some normalcy. Research on executive function shows that routines are crucial anchors for neurodivergent minds. Try to stick to regular sleep and meal times as much as you can, even if other parts of your day change. For example: have dinner at 6 pm even if everyone else is having it late, or set an alarm for your usual bedtime. The coaching advice is to plan in advance: make checklists of tasks (shopping, wrapping, cooking) and schedule them early. Use calendars, alarms, or apps to remind you of things – our brains are already overloaded without trying to store all holiday details. Planning also includes travel: if you have to visit family, confirm details (who's hosting, what's served) beforehand so it's not a surprise.Visual supports can help too. For kids and adults, a visual schedule (even just on your phone) outlining “Friday: drive to grandma's house; Saturday: gift-opening 10am, game night 6pm” can ground you. Advanced Autism Services recommends creating a visual map of the event with times and people. Even as an adult, knowing the plan lowers anxiety. Similarly, preparing your child with social stories or role-playing can make gatherings feel more predictable.Finally, keep your exercise and self-care rituals. The Harvard team reminds us that even holiday parties need cognitive flexibility – which is easier when the brain is well-restedt. So keep up that morning run or evening walk, even if it's just 10 minutes. Exercise releases stress-fighting chemicals in the brain, which can buffer holiday overload.2. Plan and Prioritize (Executive Function Hacks)You can't do everything, so delegate and prioritize ruthlessly. Which traditions truly matter to you? Focus on those, and let go of the rest. A coach suggests making a short list of top priorities (maybe it's one family dinner and a small gift exchange) and kindly declining additional activities. It's okay to skip a party or leave early – your brain's health is non-negotiable. If shopping is a drain, try online or streamlined gift ideas (gift cards, experience gifts, or even “cookies night in” kits). The key is reducing last-minute tasks, which spike stress.Use tools to help: create gift lists on your phone, set reminders a week before each event, or use productivity apps that break big chores into small steps. Even ADHD coaches agree: “Last-minute tasks are particularly stress-inducing, so plan everything in advance that you can.”. Plan your outfits, plan travel routes, plan what to say when Uncle Bob cracks a joke (maybe even a safe “exit phrase” if conversation gets intense!). This way the unexpected becomes expected, which grounds the AuDHD brain.3. Communicate and DelegateYou don't have to go it alone. Talk to your holiday co-pilots. If you have a partner or roommate, divide and conquer chores. Explain that you might need help with certain tasks – maybe they handle gift wrapping while you focus on meal prepping, for example. If you're a parent, team up with other parents: one person watches the kids while the other cooks. NFIL suggests checking in with your support network about feelings and plans.Crucially, set boundaries. Let family and friends know your limits. It's totally okay to say things like “I'm sensitive to crowds and might need a quiet break” or “I'll stay for an hour then take a walk around the block.” As one psychologist notes, neurodivergent people are often more sensitive to holiday stressors like forced gatherings and touching. So be your own advocate: politely excuse yourself to a quiet room, or step outside for air. You might even create a “signal” with a buddy if social exhaustion hits and you need help quietly bowing out. Remember that boundaries mean self-respect – you deserve to protect your peace.4. Sensory Self-CareCombat sensory overload proactively. Bring your tools and safe spaces. Noise-cancelling headphones or earbuds can be a lifesaver when the living room booms with music and chatter. Sunglasses (indoors if needed!) can soften bright lights. Keep a fidget (stress ball, textured toy, or something to squeeze) in your pocket or a weighted lap blanket in the car. Even carrying a familiar scented hand lotion or a small plush can ground you when stress spikes.If possible, help “sensory-proof” the holiday environment. Offer a sensory-friendly zone at home or the party venue – a quiet corner with dim lights and comfy seating. Advanced Autism tips say designating a quiet space with calming items (like weighted blankets or favorite objects) gives everyone a place to recharge. Make it explicit: let family know, “I might head to the quiet room when I need a break.” You'll avoid confusion or hurt feelings. If you feel overload coming on, take that break. Step outside, do some deep breathing, stare at the horizon for a minute. Science suggests that even a few moments of sensory downtime can reset your nervous system.On the topic of sensory input: eat mindfully. If bright lights and noise scramble your nerves, having a calming snack (water, a snack with protein) can help level you out. Avoid too much sugar or caffeine spikes if possible – they can worsen anxiety and crash you even more. (ADHD brains often crave carbs, as notes, but balancing with proteins can stabilize energy.) Also, be mindful of smells or textures that bother you – if Aunt's potpourri is too much, step back or move to another room.5. Emotional Regulation and Self-CompassionGive yourself grace. The holiday season often brings up big feelings (nostalgia, grief, anxiety). It's okay to feel less than jolly. Dr. Megan Neff calls it the disconnect between what we “should” feel and what we actually feel. Acknowledge your feelings without judgment. You don't have to force a smile or pretend you're loving every moment if you're not. In fact, research on emotion in ADHD underscores that we have real neurobiological reasons for our intense feelings.Build in emotional checkpoints. Throughout the day, pause and ask yourself: “How am I doing? Am I overwhelmed?” If you notice tension in your shoulders or tightening in your chest, respond with a known calming strategy: this could be deep, slow breathing (even 4-4-4 breaths: inhale 4 seconds, hold 4, exhale 4), grounding (feel your feet on the floor, notice three things around you), or a short visualization (imagine a peaceful scene). Even a quick stretch can shock your body out of fight-or-flight mode.Remember, you don't have to be “on” 100%. It's okay to sit quietly and read a book while others chat, or scroll on your phone for a mental break. Taking care of yourself isn't rude – it's survival. The Neurodivergent Notes author puts it well: start by “acknowledging that the holiday season can be hard” and giving yourself permission to feel off or “not OKay”. You might even mentally prepare a mantra: “I do not have to be perfect. My feelings are valid.” Repeat that if family guilt trips start to chatter in your mind.If anxiety or irritation spikes, try reframing: nothing says every moment has to be merry. You can enjoy the smell of pine or the glow of lights without absorbing all the chaos. Keep reminding yourself: “This is just one season. I'll get through it, and then I can relax.” As Harvard experts note, holiday stress is acute – it will subside once the season passes. Meanwhile, lean into what you find comforting: maybe a warm tea by yourself, a brief nap, or a fun playlist in your headphones.6. Navigate Family Dynamics and TraditionsFamilies can be great, but holiday families can also trip alarm bells. If certain traditions or relatives trigger you, it's OK to modify or skip them. Brainstorm alternatives: If large dinners are a nightmare, how about a small movie night with a couple people you feel safe around? If gift exchanges stress you, propose a simpler plan (e.g. Secret Santa with a modest budget, or letting kids pick one special gift each). Decline invitations graciously: “Thank you for having me, but I'll pass this time” is perfectly acceptable. People might not get it, but the goal is to keep you well, not please them.For parents of AuDHD kids: many of these strategies apply to your child too. Prepare them with visuals or previews of events, pack their favorite quiet toys, and have an exit strategy if they get overwhelmed. Engage them in something structured during gatherings (e.g. start a puzzle together, or have a “gift wrap station” where they help with one thing – giving them focus and predictability). Communicate with other family members about your child's needs ahead of time: “X is sensitive to noise, we have headphones ready if needed.” Even young children can be taught a safe word or signal for a break.During gatherings, consider creating a “sensory diet” space even for neurodivergent adults. If you're hosting, put out a bowl of noise-canceling earbuds, a quiet corner with pillows, or a weighted lap blanket on the couch. Make an announcement like, “Feel free to take a breather in the den if it gets loud!” This normalizes it for everyone. If family members don't understand, you might need a gentle explanation: “I have ADHD/autism – sometimes I process things differently. I just need a little downtime every now and then.” Hopefully, they'll respect that.7. Focus on Joy and AcceptanceFinally, try to anchor yourself in the parts of the holidays you do enjoy. Maybe it's a cherished tradition, a favorite scented candle, watching a goofy holiday movie, or hanging with a person (or pet) who always makes you smile. Plan one or two little moments you look forward to, and treat those as gifts to yourself. It could be 15 minutes alone playing a video game, stepping outside to gaze at the stars, or savoring hot cocoa. These tiny rituals can ground you.And remember: it does not have to be the “perfect” holiday. The mantra from neuroscientists and psychologists is to keep expectations realistic. The Harvard article even reminds us: holidays are “just another time of year”. What matters is that you're safe and okay. If you spend the evening in pajamas binge-watching rather than hosting a feast, that's fine. You get to decide what this season means to you.Above all, be gentle with yourself. As the holiday advice goes: give yourself permission to be a bit Grinchy. It's okay if you feel like “more Scrooge than Hallmark hero” – that feeling is valid. By acknowledging that and taking small steps to care for yourself, you give your brain the buffer it needs. The goal isn't to force holiday cheer; it's to manage the chaos in ways that serve you, not deplete you.You've Got This (One Step at a Time)The holidays might be tricky for AuDHD brains, but you now have a toolbox of strategies informed by science and experience. To recap: Plan and prioritize, keep some routine, check in with your body's needs, create quiet spaces, set boundaries, and show yourself kindness. These steps tap directly into the neuroscience of stress and ADHD – they help keep your prefrontal cortex functioning and your nervous system calmer.Lastly, remember that the real magic of the holidays is connection – not the chaos. Connect with one or two supportive people. Focus on what truly matters to you. When you feel overwhelmed, remind yourself that this tough season is temporary and that you are not alone in feeling this way. Many of us AuDHDers have been there and come out the other side.Thank you for listening to Authenti

It's Friday, November 21st, and Norm Hitzges is just wondering if this might actually be the perfect time for the Cowboys to catch the Eagles. With All-Pro right tackle Lane Johnson sidelined and the Philly offensive line suddenly mortal, Norm digs into just how much one lineman has meant to a franchise that's gone 96–41 with him and 12–23 without him. He walks through the Eagles' strange season: a defense that grew up faster than expected, an offense stuck in the mud, whispers about Jalen Hurts, and yet a ridiculous 51–14 record with Hurts under center since 2022. Then Norm turns his attention back home: the Cowboys sitting at 4-5-1, a brutal three-game gauntlet of Eagles, Chiefs, and Lions on deck, and Vegas setting the over/under for Dallas wins at just 6.5. Is there really a playoff run in there, or is this just another year of “maybe next time”? Along the way, you'll hear from show partners Fluent Financial, Bob's Steak & Chop House, and Full Moon Healing Balm, and get the full Norm treatment: perspective, numbers, and just enough optimism to keep you watching on Sunday. Chapters00:00:00 – Can the Cowboys Beat the Eagles?00:00:19 – A Word from Fluent Financial00:01:23 – The Lane Johnson Injury and Why It Matters00:02:10 – Eagles With Lane vs. Without Lane00:03:11 – Eagles' Record, Schedule, and a Tough Nut to Crack00:04:04 – The Plan vs. Reality: Veteran Offense, Baby Defense00:04:47 – AJ Brown, Jalen Hurts, and Locker Room Whispers00:05:46 – A 51–14 Quarterback and an Offense That Still Struggles00:06:59 – Defense, Turnovers, and Why This Week Favors Dallas00:07:46 – Bob's Steak & Chop House Spot00:08:28 – Full Moon Healing Balm and Norm's Battle with Blotches00:09:53 – Cowboys at 4–5–1 and a Brutal Remaining Schedule00:10:41 – Vegas Win Total: Only 6.5 for Dallas00:11:34 – Sponsor Thanks and Closing Thoughts from Norm and Mary00:12:37 – Stolen Water Media Sign-Off

If you're asking someone else about the market - it's not the market that's wrong - it's your portfolio. It's not suited for your risk tolerance or you have the wrong tools.

Die USA haben einen 28-Punkte-Friedensplan für die Ukraine vorgestellt, der unter anderem Gebietsabtretungen an Russland vorsieht und die ukrainische Armee begrenzt. Sicherheitsgarantien und ein Wiederaufbaufonds sollen Kiew schützen und den Wiederaufbau ermöglichen. Kritiker warnen, dass der Plan die „roten Linien“ der Ukraine überschreitet und die langfristige Souveränität unsicher bleibt.

Mit Jonas Waack und Susanne Schwarz. Endspurt auf der Weltklimakonferenz: Überraschend geht es dort darum, ob die Staaten endlich einen Plan zum Ausstieg aus den fossilen Energien schmieden. Derweil beklagt sich Bundeskanzler Merz mal wieder übers Stadtbild - diesmal vom COP-Standort Belém in Brasilien. Ein diplomatischer Fauxpas, der ihm Kritik aus Lateinamerika einbringt. Deutschland ist im Klimaschutz-Index der Organisation Germanwatch abgerutscht, von Platz 16 im vergangenen Jahr auf Platz 22 jetzt. Den ersten Platz belegt Dänemark - oder eigentlich den vierten. Denn symbolisch lassen die Autor*innen das Siegertreppchen immer frei, um auszusagen, dass kein Land genug fürs Klima tut. Die Bundesregierung senkt die Luftverkehrsabgabe, die die Ampel-Regierung gerade erst erhöht hatte. Fliegen ist die klimaschädlichste Art der Fortbewegung. Das gilt erst recht für Reisen mit dem Privatjet. Eine Allianz aus neun Ländern fordert deshalb eine Luxusflugsteuer. Die Bundesregierung ist uneins. -- Das klima update° wird jede Woche von Spender:innen unterstützt. Wenn auch du dazu beitragen willst, geht das HIER https://www.verein-klimawissen.de/spenden.

The Good Forest: The Salzburgers, Success, and the Plan for Georgia (U Georgia Press, 2024) explores some of Georgia's earliest settlers, the Salzburgers.  Georgia, the last of Britain's American mainland colonies, began with high aspirations to create a morally sound society based on small family farms with no enslaved workers. But those goals were not realized, and Georgia became a slave plantation society, following the Carolina model. This trajectory of failure is well known. But looking at the Salzburgers, who emigrated from Europe as part of the original plan, provides a very different story.  The Good Forest reveals the experiences of the Salzburger migrants who came to Georgia with the support of British and German philanthropy, where they achieved self-sufficiency in the Ebenezer settlement while following the Trustees' plans. Because their settlement comprised a significant portion of Georgia's early population, their experiences provide a corrective to our understanding of early Georgia and help reveal the possibilities in Atlantic colonization as they built a cohesive community.  The relative success of the Ebenezer settlement, furthermore, challenges the inherent environmental, cultural, and economic determinism that has dominated Georgia history. That well-worn narrative often implies (or even explicitly states) that only a slave-based plantation economy—as implemented after the Trustee era—could succeed. With this history, Auman illuminates the interwoven themes of Atlantic migrations, colonization, charity, and transatlantic religious networks. Guest: Dr. Karen Auman is an assistant professor of history at Brigham Young University and a certified genealogist. She studies Germans during the colonial period in the Atlantic World, religion on the frontiers of America, migrations, and families. Host: Lucy Smith Biemiller is an intended M.A. History student at the University of Georgia. She studies 18th and 19th material culture in the American South primarily as it relates to classical culture. Learn more about your ad choices.

When we think of paper flowers, we often imagine something small, intricate, and realistic. But what happens when you scale that beauty up tenfold? In this episode of Paper Talk, Quynh Nguyen, Sara Kim, and Jessie Chui explore the bold, beautiful world of large paper flowers and the practical realities that come with going big. Listen to this Episode to learn: Why large flowers require careful structural planning How to price and protect your work (and yourself) The importance of weather, shipping, and storage considerations Creative ways to include large flowers in your business offerings Creating giant paper flowers is both an artistic and logistical challenge. As Quynh shared, even the smallest miscalculation can cause a flower to droop or collapse. “I watched one of my large flowers start to wilt before my eyes,” she said. “I had to go back and rewire it.” Wiring each petal, reinforcing the base, and using durable materials are essential steps for any large-scale project. For Sara, the biggest lessons came from experience. “Even when my flowers stood perfectly in my studio, they would tip over at outdoor events. Wind, heat, and humidity change everything,” she explained. Over time, she realized that offering large flower installations professionally required more than artistic skill, it required business planning, insurance, and honest client communication. Jessie agreed, adding that the paper flower business side of things can't be ignored. “It's not just about making the flower,” she said. “It's about managing logistics, installation, and liability. Once you step into larger projects, you're responsible for safety and presentation.” So, what should artists know before offering giant paper flowers for events or retail displays? Structure Comes First - Use strong wiring, test every connection, and consider how gravity will affect your flower over time. Hanging or standing pieces should be tested for at least 24 hours before installation. Communicate Clearly with Clients - Set expectations about weather sensitivity and handling. As Sara put it, “Treat paper flowers like real flowers—they're beautiful but fragile.” Plan for Storage and Transport - Large flowers take up significant space. Think about storage, dust protection, and packaging. If you must ship, factor in both the size and fragility—shipping costs can quadruple quickly. Protect Your Business - Event venues often require liability insurance, especially for installations. “Even if you're just setting up a backdrop,” Jessie noted, “you need coverage in case something happens.” Start with One Big Bloom - If you're new to large-scale work, start small. Make one flower for yourself. It's fun, forgiving, and will teach you about scale, structure, and creativity. Despite the hurdles, large flowers remain a showstopper. They command attention, tell stories, and redefine what paper art can be. Whether they're adorning a wedding ceremony, retail window, or photo backdrop, these flowers remind us that art can bloom in any size. As Quynh summed it up beautifully, “Paper flowers can bloom in every size. The key is knowing how to make them stand tall.”

Seit nunmehr fast vier Jahren führt Russland einen Angriffskrieg gegen die Ukraine. Laut mehreren Medienberichten wollen die USA nun der Ukraine Bedingungen für einen Waffenstillstand aufzwingen. Ein Deal, der schmerzliche Verluste für die Ukraine bedeuten könnte. Manuel Escher aus DER STANDARD-Außenpolitikredaktion analysiert den amerikanischen Plan und erklärt, wie die beiden Seiten auf den Vorstoß reagieren und ob das tatsächlich ein Weg in den Frieden sein könnte.

We had a proper sit-down with Nana Yaw Ofori-Atta and this episode went everywhere!We spoke about his songs blowing up and ending up in the club, how he feels about the attention, and the whole conversation around pastors being treated like "mini-gods".We also got into toxic church culture, his short back-and-forth with Kwadwo Sheldon, his love for Arsenal, and he even gave advice to someone who feels guilty about changing churches.A very honest, very needed conversation.

Plan , Purpose & Pursuit (part 3)-Prophet Samuel B. Addison

US-Medien berichten, dass sich die US-Regierung und Russland auf einen Ukraine-Friedensplan geeinigt haben sollen. Der Plan sieht allerdings vor, dass die Ukraine viele Zugeständnisse an Russland machen müsste. Also ein Plan ganz im Sinne Putins? Weitere Themen: Trotz Pflegeinitiative: Das Pflegefachpersonal in der Schweiz sieht seine Forderung weiterhin nicht erfüllt. Fürs Wochenende haben die Angestellten des Gesundheitswesens einmal mehr eine Demonstration angekündigt. Erste Spitäler zeigen aber, dass Verbesserungen möglich sind. Um Frauen auch im Sport in Führungspositionen zu bringen, lancierten unter anderem Swiss Olympic und das Frauen-Netzwerk «Sportif» das Mentoring-Programm «Leadership has no Gender». Nun ist die erste Runde dieses Förderprogramms zu Ende gegangen. Eine Bilanz.

In this episode of How to Run Profitable Retreats, host Leni Cavazos takes you into Pillar 3 of building a Six‑Figure Retreat Business: Sell for Profit. If you've ever wondered why your retreats aren't bringing in the income, stability, or sustainability you expected — this episode is your wake‑up call. Selling for profit isn't about being pushy or salesy. It's about treating your retreat like a real business… not a passion project, not a hobby, and definitely not a "hope the universe provides" operation. Leni breaks down: ◾️ Why transformative retreats STILL need profit to survive ◾️ The difference between marketing and sales (and why both matter) ◾️ The story of a retreat leader who accidentally priced away her entire profit margin ◾️ How boundaries, pricing integrity, and sales systems protect your business ◽️ Why 98% of your sales happen in the FOLLOW‑UP — not the sales call ⬛️ How to think like an investor when designing your retreat business ◻️ The crucial question every host must ask: Am I running a business or a hobby? Leni also shares her behind‑the‑scenes experience running revenue strategies for global brands — including how a single report helped increase outside‑guest restaurant revenue by 36% at the Ritz‑Carlton Dubai — and why these same principles apply to your retreat business today. If you're ready to stop "winging it" and start building a profitable, scalable sales ecosystem for your retreats, this pillar is essential.

If you're a small business owner, you are probably experiencing some degree of overwhelm in your business or personal life. Probably both. Because when you're a small business owner, business and personal overlap and intertwine. A lot.  Overwhelm can become a major obstacle to success. It can affect your business growth and your personal growth. Personal overwhelm affects your business and business overwhelm affects your personal life. How many times have you been impatient or snippy or overreacted to something because of stress in another part of your life?  So many business owners operate in a constant state of overwhelm. But it doesn't have to be that way. In this episode, I'm walking you through five things you can do to help reduce your overwhelm so you can thrive instead of just surviving.  1. Time Management - There will never be enough hours in the day to get everything done. How we manage our time is crucial to reducing overwhelm. Get more done by:  Identifying high-priority tasks. Time blocking those tasks. Removing distractions. Using a timer to stay focused.  2. Hiring, Outsourcing, Delegating - you can't keep doing business alone. This means knowing when it's time to:  Hire Outsource Delegate 3. Setting Realistic Goals and Timelines - entrepreneurs are guilty of always thinking we can get more done in a set amount of time than we actually can.  Be honest with yourself.  Plan only ONE big rock per quarter. (detailed in my Strategic Yearly Planning Workshop - linked below) 4. Getting Support - feeling supported makes a huge difference to the amount of overwhelm you feel.  How can your team support you?  How can your spouse support you?  How can your children support you?  How can your friends and family support you?  Seek out other support - housekeeper, grocery deliveries, etc.  5. Self-care - you need to take time for yourself. Don't feel guilty about it.  Plan self-care time - put it on your calendar.  Make time to spend with friends and family.  Start with one of these items and build it into your routine. Then layer in another. And another. Stop operating in fight or flight mode. Your health and the health of your business depend on it!  Join me for this episode and learn five things you can do to tackle overwhelm in your subscription box business.
