    Ok, it's another peek into my brain. I'm sharing the things I want to follow me into the new year and things that I'm leaving in 2025. I thought it would be beneficial for you to hear my thoughts behind these decisions and get you thinking about how you want 2026 to look for you. Planning provides a lens of calm. Somehow when a plan is in place, even if it changes, it is not as jarring as when you have to react to change with "emergency energy."  What will be joining me As I think about 2026 approaching, there are some significant changes happening in my life. Abby will have baby number two soon and the PhD is not consuming as much of my time. So, I am looking at the extra time. I want to be intentional with showing up for Abby, taking care of my body, and due to circumstances not yet resolved, looks like I will be doing a lot more housework.  This next 120 days I'm viewing as my "grand(ma)turnity leave." I am excited for Planning Day, where I take the time to really look at my time and plug in my priorities of being a grandma and think about how I want to use all this time I am getting back. When it comes to my housework I plan to run the vacuum robot more frequently after getting some listener feedback and tips. And I will run the dishwasher daily which is more frequent than we currently do. I am looking at the time I used to give to the PhD and filling it with my new goals. I am keeping the Tovola that is in alignment with eating healthy. But will likely add in a little meal prepping to accommodate how I want to eat and Grayson's egg allergy eating regimen. So, on Thursdays, I'll be doing mid week laundry and some housekeeping. And on Saturdays you will find me at the gym with Grayson. You will find me with Grayson a lot in the next 120 days "sucking up all my time." And I wouldn't have it any other way.  What will get left behind Sit down. I'm leaving Culver's in 2025!!  Never did I think this day would come but I want to build a healthy body, I still have 46 years to live and I'm really looking at my food right now. Doggy Daycare is closing and the house keeper won't clean with Hunter home, so no housekeeper.  I will be home longer in the mornings so no more coffee and breakfast at the office. And I'm ditching ithe Oura ring. That thing was frustrating me. I disagreed with it too much. And I want to wear my nice jewlery! I'm ditching my gardening shorts and Organize 365® v-necks for clothes for workout clothes that better match how I identify; as a person who works out. Late night bedtimes are going away too because I want to have plenty of energy for the Abby, Grayson, and working out. My Golden Window is Ending I have been spoiled getting to take two luxurious hours each Sunday morning to process my Sunday Basket® upstairs and with little Grayson in tow pretty soon, I will not be able to. I have my Sunday Basket® upstairs and another in my kitchen which is basically Abby's Sunday Basket®. I plan to break my normal processing time into two different 1 hour chunks. I think I'll read all the things while Grayson is bathing which will account for about 1 hour or a little less. And I'm auditioning other time blocks for the remaining hour I will need for thinking, planning, and billpay. I will solidify this likely in Planning Day. Now is the time to go into your 2026 Sunday Basket® and grab all those ideas you wrote down and bring them to Planning Day. Those are the ideas and intentions you wanted to consider for the new year. Yes, this community is planning 2026 already. This community does not think you are weird. When you plan now, you get to execute on Jan 1. But if you want till the dust settles in the new year, it'll be the 5th - the 9th before you start planning let alone executing.  EPISODE RESOURCES: The Sunday Basket® The Paper Solution® The Productive Home Solution Sign Up for the Organize 365® Newsletter  Did you enjoy this episode?

    Compensation is one of the most sensitive and misunderstood topics in the workplace, and one of the most consequential. In this episode, host Brandon Laws sits down with Nicole Blevins to unpack what compensation structure really means, why informal pay decisions stop working as organizations grow, and how leaders can approach pay with more clarity, fairness, and confidence. Nicole explains how a well-designed compensation structure creates consistency without limiting flexibility, helps leaders navigate difficult pay conversations, and reduces risk tied to pay equity and compliance. The conversation also explores pay transparency laws, common signals that it is time to revisit compensation practices, and why avoiding pay equity analysis often creates bigger problems down the road. This episode offers practical insight for leaders, HR professionals, and business owners who want to scale responsibly, build trust, and make pay decisions that stand up to scrutiny. Key Timestamps 00:00 – Why compensation conversations matter more than ever 02:00 – What compensation structure actually means in practice 04:00 – The misconception that structure limits flexibility 06:00 – What breaks when organizations grow without guardrails 08:30 – Pay transparency, employee conversations, and trust 10:30 – The hidden risk of retention raises and pay compression 12:30 – Why pay equity analysis is no longer optional 14:30 – Oregon pay equity laws and the importance of proactive action 16:00 – The real pros and cons of pay transparency laws 18:00 – Addressing the fear of uncovering pay inequities 20:30 – How compensation structure changes manager conversations 23:30 – Why compensation is not a one-time exercise 25:30 – How often organizations should revisit pay structures 26:30 – Signals that it is time to review compensation practices 28:30 – How leaders can approach compensation work without overwhelm A QUICK GLIMPSE INTO OUR PODCAST Podcast: Transform Your Workplace, sponsored by Xenium HR Host: Brandon Laws In Brandon's own words: "The Transform Your Workplace podcast is your go-to source for the latest workplace trends, big ideas, and time-tested methods straight from the mouths of industry experts and respected thought leaders."

    Carmela Then: From Requirements Chaos to Story Mapping Success—How Planning Transforms Agile Teams Read the full Show Notes and search through the world's largest audio library on Agile and Scrum directly on the Scrum Master Toolbox Podcast website: http://bit.ly/SMTP_ShowNotes.   "We can't continue to do this. Something has to change." - Carmela Then   Carmela shares a story of organizational chaos that will resonate with many Agile practitioners. She joined a company where teams would jump straight into writing requirements without pausing to understand what they were trying to achieve. Vendor deliverables were thrown "over the fence" to internal technology teams with the assumption that everyone would magically know what to do. For almost a year, this pattern continued: teams writing stories on the fly while building, creating massive rework, confusion, and burnout.  The Product Owner faced constant stakeholder disappointment, having to explain what wasn't delivered and why. Then came the breakthrough moment—the PO reached out and said, "We can't continue to do this." Carmela introduced a structured approach: workshops that brought business stakeholders and subject matter experts together to walk through end-to-end business processes. She implemented story mapping—visualizing the journey from beginning to end, with each major step broken into smaller, actionable stories.  Critically, she built in feedback loops: playback sessions where the team validated their understanding with stakeholders before committing to development. The result? Teams could now distinguish between well-understood work they could start immediately and the "hairy" items that needed more investigation. The Product Owner could make informed prioritization decisions, and the entire team gained visibility into the bigger picture.   Self-reflection Question: How often does your team pause to map the full end-to-end journey before diving into requirements, and what might you be missing by skipping this step?   [The Scrum Master Toolbox Podcast Recommends]

    Final Thoughts After 20 Years of MBA Advising: Part 1 This episode is bittersweet for our longtime podcast co-host, Chandler. Chandler is preparing to step away from his co-hosting responsibilities in order to care for his aging parents and launch a new venture for philanthropists. He would like to share how much he has enjoyed co-hosting and wants to say a HUGE thank you to Stacy, Erika, Yvonne, Esther, Alex and the entire SBC team for their amazing friendship and support along the way. As Chandler thought about how to frame his last podcast, he ultimately decided to take my own advice. As our loyal listeners know, Chandler has closed each of his podcasts over the past four years with the words "be authentic, be bold, and to have a solid plan". To that end, he will conclude his four years as co-host (and 20 years of advising MBA applicants) with a three-part series in which he gets very authentic and very bold in order to help you create a solid application plan. In this first of three episodes, Chandler takes a no-holds barred look at the first phase of the application process, and shares his biggest pieces of advice in each of the following categories: Planning your application (including the very best place to begin, which most people miss) Defining career goals, Addressing lower-than-desired quant scores, Quantifying your resume, Using the data forms strategically, and … a special surprise at the end of the episode he hasn't shared before.

    Women don't eat poorly because they lack discipline. They eat poorly because they're exhausted, overwhelmed, hormonally ambushed, and carrying everyone else's load. When you're wired and tired, hitting the 3pm crash, or fried at the end of the day, biology takes over, not willpower.This episode is your no-BS map to those vulnerability windows and how to stop getting hijacked by cravings, stress, and decision fatigue. If you're done feeling like food is running the show, this is your wake-up call.Reasons Why Women Eat Poorly @ 0:01Women often eat poorly not due to lack of discipline, but because they are tired, overwhelmed, hormonally imbalanced, and prioritising the needs of others over their own. These biological and emotional vulnerabilities lead to cravings for quick, unhealthy foods that provide a temporary sense of relief.Key Vulnerability Windows @ 2:27The main times when women are most vulnerable to making poor food choices are:When they are wired and tired, with amplified cravings and disrupted hunger hormones.The 3pm crash, when cortisol dips and the body craves sugary or carb-heavy foods.End-of-day decision fatigue, when the brain is fatigued and defaults to the easiest, often unhealthy, options.Strategies for Prevention @ 4:37To proactively address these vulnerability windows, Jennifer recommends:Establishing a consistent bedtime routine.Eating protein-rich meals and snacks to stabilise blood sugar.Planning ahead and having healthy options readily available.Developing non-food coping mechanisms for emotional triggers like stress and boredom.Hormonal Impacts @ 8:30Hormonal changes during perimenopause, menopause, and beyond can significantly impact appetite, cravings, and the body's ability to regulate blood sugar. Consistent protein intake, adaptogen herbs, and honouring one's hormonal cycle are key to navigating these shifts.Recap and Key Takeaways @ 11:56In summary, poor eating habits often stem from biological and emotional vulnerabilities, not lack of discipline. By understanding these windows of vulnerability and proactively addressing them through prevention strategies, women can make sustainable improvements to their nutrition and overall wellbeing.LINKS: Feel like crap lately?

    Most people treat taxes like an unavoidable expense. The wealthy treat them like a strategy. In this episode, I break down how high net worth individuals and families legally and ethically use taxes to build wealth instead of losing it. We walk through the mindset shift, the incentives built into the tax code, and the four biggest strategies the wealthy use to lower their effective tax rates while compounding assets. This is not about loopholes or shortcuts. It is about understanding how the system works and using it intentionally. If you are tired of reacting to taxes and want to start planning ahead, this episode is your starting point. Episode Timeline and Highlights 00:00 Why taxes are a blueprint not a bill 01:15 The mindset difference between classes 03:00 Why the tax code rewards behavior 04:20 Business ownership and pre tax strategies 06:40 Depreciation explained simply 08:30 Real estate and tax efficiency 10:20 Proactive planning versus reaction 12:00 DIY or delegate 13:30 How to start using the system Key Takeaways • Taxes are an incentive system • Ownership changes how you are taxed • Depreciation creates real advantages • Real estate compounds wealth and tax efficiency • Planning ahead reduces stress and taxes • Education is the real advantage Quotables "The wealthy do not fear taxes. They design around them." "Taxes are not the enemy. Ignorance is." "Playing offense with money starts with understanding the rules." Closing If this episode gave you clarity, share it with someone still paying taxes blindly. You do not need to cheat. You do not need to be ultra rich. You just need to learn the system and use it intentionally.

    Hi mama, Get my free guide: ✨ ChatGPT Prompts Made Simple for Moms ✨today! And Happy New Year… welcome to 2026. Before the goals, resolutions, planners, and pressure of a brand-new year take over, this episode is a moment to pause together. If you're ending one year exhausted and quietly hoping the next one will feel different… you're not alone. So many working moms start the year with good intentions, only to find themselves right back in survival mode… reacting instead of choosing, feeling behind instead of grounded, and wondering where the time went. In this short episode, I'm speaking to you not just as a coach… but as another working mom who's been there. Inside this episode, we talk about: ✨ Why motivation fades… and why that's not your fault ✨ Why planning tasks without priorities keeps us stuck ✨ How to stop letting another year just “happen” to you ✨ What it really means to design a year around your life… not the other way around This is not about doing more. It's not about hustle, perfection, or a brand-new you. It's about stepping into 2026 with intention.

    Big revenue months shouldn't feel like a surprise. Yet for most coaches and course creators, they do. One month feels great. The next feels… confusing. And somewhere in between, you're wondering if you did something wrong or if this is just how business works. In this episode of The Expert Edge, I break down why inconsistent income is almost never a strategy problem and almost always a planning problem. This isn't about complicated spreadsheets or rigid forecasts. It's about creating intentional space for high-revenue months before they arrive. You'll learn: Why most people plan reactively instead of proactively and how that quietly caps their income The simple shifts that allow your nervous system, calendar, and offers to support bigger months How to stop "hoping" for great months and start building toward them on purpose If your income feels unpredictable, stressful, or harder than it needs to be… this episode will help you step back, zoom out, and create clarity around what you actually want your year to look like. Because high-revenue months aren't magic. They're planned.   Resources mentioned in the episode: If you're a coach, consultant, or expert already doing $10K+ months and want a clear roadmap to scaling toward $100K months and beyond, I break it all down in my Million Dollar Year Workshop.

We stop asking "what do I feel like doing?" and start asking "what kind of life do I want to live?" By strictly curtailing obligations and automating the mundane, we create breathing room.

    We're heading into 2026 with one goal: stop losing money.Not “grow at all costs.” Not “try harder.” Just: build a healthy business that actually cash flows.In this episode, John Wilson and Jack Carr break down what they're cutting, tightening, and renegotiating in 2026 to go from ~13% EBITDA to 20% EBITDA—and why they're also targeting 10% net profit after realizing how big the gap can be between EBITDA and real take-home profit.They walk through the exact planning process they used this year (operational inputs → revenue → profit plan), then share the unsexy truth: most of the gains don't come from some magic tactic… they come from relentless efficiency—marketing discipline, killing bloated software, renegotiating vendor terms, tightening material spend, and finding hidden leaks everywhere.If you run a home service business (at any size), this is your 2026 playbook for getting healthy first—then scaling from strength.In this episode, we cover:“Just Don't Lose Money” Mindset: Why refusing to lose changes everythingProfit Planning for 2026: Planning off the P&L (not vibes)EBITDA Isn't a Light Switch: Why profitability is an on-ramp (and takes time)Marketing Discipline: Cutting inconsistent channels + tracking cancellation rateSoftware Bloat: The hidden $10K–$50K/month leak almost everyone has
