If you've ever thought award travel isn't possible with a large family or group, this episode will change your mind.   In Part 1 of this conversation, I sit down with Dr. Alison Curfman, a pediatric emergency physician, entrepreneur, and relentless optimizer who regularly travels the world with her family—typically six to eight people depending on whether au pairs or grandparents join. After co-founding a healthcare company that scaled to a nine-figure valuation, Alison transitioned into advisory and consulting work that she could do from anywhere. Listen in as Alison walks through her exact strategy for finding business class flights for large groups, her hotel booking approach that keeps everyone comfortable without breaking the bank, and why positioning flights have become part of the adventure rather than a hassle.   We cover how she anchors her trip planning around long-haul flights, builds itineraries around award availability instead of fixed destinations, and uses spreadsheets and organization systems to keep track of multiple bookings across airlines and hotels. Allison also shares practical insights on traveling light with kids, leveraging Hyatt's loyalty program strategically, and combining fine hotels & resorts credits with points to maximize value on family trips.   Whether you're traveling with four people or eight, this episode offers a roadmap for making large family award travel not just possible, but truly enjoyable.   Get full show notes and transcript: https://pointmetofirstclass.com/award-travel-large-families-part-1    Want to shape the show?

Every targeted abduction follows a cycle. Target selection. Surveillance. Planning. Deployment. The deployment is almost always the shortest phase. The surveillance — the watching, the pattern-building, the cataloging of vulnerabilities — is where the real crime takes shape.The disappearance of Nancy Guthrie reveals a sequence consistent with what the FBI's Behavioral Analysis Unit associates with planned abductions rather than impulsive crimes. Doorbell camera disconnected at 1:47 AM. A second camera detecting a person with no saved video at 2:12 AM. Pacemaker app losing connection at 2:28 AM. Every security system systematically neutralized. Floodlight destroyed. Blood confirmed as Nancy's DNA on the front porch. All belongings left inside.This episode breaks down how predators select targets through cold risk-benefit analysis — isolation, predictable routines, perceived vulnerability, security systems that look functional but aren't. We examine the insider threat pattern documented across hundreds of cases where perpetrators leverage someone with existing access to gather intelligence external surveillance cannot provide.Retired FBI Special Agent Robin Dreeke then analyzes every forensic decision at the scene. Sheriff Nanos released it after one day, said it was "done," then admitted he "could have held off." Investigators returned four more times. A rooftop camera was missed for five days. Drone footage showed deputies probing a septic tank behind the property.Dreeke addresses the questions shaping this case: What does the systematic targeting of every camera suggest about the perpetrator's knowledge of the property? What does the septic tank search signal? Can the chain-of-custody breaks be recovered?The predator's greatest advantage has never been strength or speed. It's the fact that most people simply aren't paying attention.#NancyGuthrie #SavannahGuthrie #AttackCycle #RobinDreeke #FBI #TrueCrimeToday #PreAttackIndicators #ForensicEvidence #AbductionCase #SurveillanceDetectionJoin Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Ok, the line leader for executive functions is working memory. Remember? At the end of the line is the higher level executive function of planning. Planning is the ultimate self care because it ensures high priority tasks will get completed and gives you peace. I'm explaining how getting your working memory and prospective memory to play nice, will allow Planning to have a chance to play a role in your life and finally free up your full cognitive bandwidth!  TMP Time management planning; plan for the day, prioritize, and set deadlines. You wrote your brian down on paper and you decided if it could wait. The items that could not wait need to be plugged into a time block in your week. This is Time management planning. The key to this is leaving a little white space for when life's inevitable interruptions pop up.  Contingency Planning You uplevel your planning when you have a contingent plan. Choose which items, if need be, for tomorrow's plan can be pushed to the next day or put back in the Sunday Basket®. We all know we will be interrupted but have you made a contingency plan, a back up plan, for the day you are planning? Studies show that people who have contingency plans get more done than those who do not. Those same studies show, mind you this is in the workplace, that even with support staff and a cleaning crew, they still only complete their to-do list, 80% of the time. At least one day a week they are not completing their tasks. Now I ask you, do you think we are interrupted more at home or at work? At home we are definitely interrupted more and we are the support staff and the cleaning crew. I hope this is giving you insight as to why you are not completing your to do list. There is a lot demanding our time. The Sunday Basket® shines at contingent planning. On Sunday when you are making the week's plan, you can think through your meals, what if there is a snow day, what if a college doesn't meet their deadline. But you must plan at the end. We realized, in looking over the 80 questions submitted for the Sunday Basket® webinar in late December, that most of you aren't getting to the planning step. You should start with sorting index cards and going through slash pockets, then you do random tasks and managerial tasks, for me it's CFO stuff.  Lastly, PLAN!  I say it takes me 90 min to 3 hours because it depends on how much I do between sorting and planning. Pro tip: I plan Friday "in pencil." I take all the tasks I need to complete and fill them into time blocks based on importance of completion. I know though, that by Friday, some tasks will have overflowed to Friday. Life happened all week. Some items will have to go back to the Sunday Basket® and some items will be pushed to Friday. There has to be white space for flexibility. That's why we have to honestly answer, "Can it wait till Sunday?" This question may free up time that was already given to something you wanted to do not had to do. There just isn't enough time to get it all done but there is enough time, if you plan, to get all the important stuff done through planning.  Strategic Planning Strategic planning is the long term planning, like what we do on Planning Day, in the Productive Home Solution™. When planning, it is best to have uninterrupted time because it requires our working memory. We cannot change people so we modify the environment. We cannot eliminate distractions so we must have daily/weekly plans. Planning will never become a habit. But you can use things like the beginning of the school week to plan your weeks and the school year as a reminder to get some long term planning done. Strategic planning is how we get a grounding system in place to tackle the three types of planning; TMP, contingency, and strategic.  Planning is the ultimate self care.

Find out the best time to go home shopping and whether shared housing bills can affect your plans to retire together. Should you buy a house in the winter or wait for spring? How can you split housing costs and plan for retirement when you and your partner are on different timelines? Hosts Sean Pyles and Elizabeth Ayoola discuss equitable money management for couples to help you understand how to plan a shared future without losing sight of your own financial security. But first, Anna Helhoski joins Sean and Elizabeth to discuss winter homebuying and selling with mortgage Nerds Abby Badach Doyle and Kate Wood.

Then, listeners Claire and Robbie join Sean and Elizabeth to discuss how to share expenses when one partner owns the house, and how to aim for retirement at the same time despite a 16-year age gap. They discuss ways to rethink “50-50” so it feels fair, what semi-retirement options like barista FIRE can look like when health insurance is a concern, and how life insurance and basic estate planning can protect both partners if life takes an unexpected turn.

In this episode of Programmatic Digest, Hélène sits down with Dominique Robinson, an integrated media planner at Luquire, for an insightful conversation on how media planning is evolving in today's programmatic-first world.

Together, they break down what "integrated media planning" really looks like inside an agency — including how teams collaborate across departments, develop strategic client briefs, define audiences, and build media plans that align with both business goals and consumer behavior.

The episode wraps with a thoughtful discussion on the role of AI in advertising, how teams are using tools like ChatGPT for idea generation and validation, and why human expertise and foundational planning skills remain critical as the industry shifts toward automation. ✨ And don't miss the YouTube vodcast version of this episode, where Hélène shares a live demo of the agentic DSP technology mentioned in the conversation — showing what the future of AI-powered media buying could look like in practice.

What does it take to prove that community engagement didn't just happen — but actually shaped decisions, priorities, and outcomes? In this episode of People Behind the Plans, APA Editor in Chief Meghan Stromberg talks with planner Christina Edingbourgh about a framework her team calls “Memphis Math.” The approach turns open-ended community input into trackable, quantifiable data — without losing the nuance, emotion, or lived experience behind what people say. Drawing on her background in nonprofit community development, Christina, who serves as the administrator of the Office of Comprehensive Planning for Memphis's Division of Planning and Development, explains how Memphis built its engagement strategy for Memphis 3.0 around a simple but demanding standard: Every interaction should feel safe, comfortable, and meaningful. The conversation digs into how Memphis Math works in practice, with more technical details described in here recent PAS Memo “Everything Counts in Memphis: Community Engagement for Data-Driven Planning.” Christina walks through the meeting structure, consensus-building, and the labor-intensive but scalable process of coding and tagging notes so feedback can be analyzed across the city's 14 planning districts. The method measures how widespread an issue is, how deeply people care about it, and whether different neighborhoods are actually talking about the same thing in the first place. Along the way, Christina reflects on rebuilding trust in a city that went 40 years without a comprehensive plan and why public transparency — posting meeting notes, maps, and feedback online — has been critical to changing how residents see the planning department. “We're professional recommenders,” Christina says. “But we can prove that what people said mattered.” For anyone grappling with the question of how to honor community voices long after the meeting ends, this episode offers both a practical framework and a powerful reminder that listening only counts if you can show your work.

Watch Us On YouTube! Air India and Boeing are back in the headlines, and the questions aren't getting smaller. This week, Ed and Richard break down what we know — and what we don't — about the latest fuel switch reporting, what responsibility lies with Boeing versus airline operations, and why early narratives in aviation stories are often incomplete. From there, things get lighter: Frontier is giving away 5,000 miles (yes, really), Hyatt launches a new promotion that's worth a closer look, Aeroplan adds ITA Airways as a partner, and we revisit one of the most important lessons in modern travel: always have a backup flight plan.

What if the Year of the Fire Horse and the upcoming 2027 shift in Human Design aren't here to create chaos — but to train us for sovereignty?  In this episode, Nicole offers a grounded reframe of what these transitions are really asking of us and why so many people are feeling unsettled right now. Rather than bracing for collapse, Nicole explores how we're being called to make decisions from within as external structures lose their grip. As familiar systems, leaders, and institutions stop providing clear answers, the focus shifts toward self-trust, emotional regulation, and learning how to stand in your own authority without outsourcing your power. Nicole also connects the untamed energy of the Fire Horse with the closing chapter of the Cross of Planning to reveal a larger collective initiation that's already underway. This moment isn't about rebellion or independence for its own sake — it's about responsibility, embodiment, and learning how to lead yourself when the old rules no longer apply. If you've been feeling restless, disillusioned with traditional leadership, or quietly called to a more self-directed way of living and leading, this episode offers a clarifying perspective on what's unfolding — and how to meet it with confidence instead of fear.
