Na referendumsko nedeljo se je zgodilo pričakovano. Leva politika s svojimi civilnodružbenimi izpostavami je na valu aprilskega volilnega uspeha na referendumu skozi spravila še tri zakone, ki jih je že v začetku njenega prevzema oblasti skušala zablokirati poražena SDS. Pri tem je bistveno, in to odsevajo primerjave rezultatov med različnimi letošnjimi glasovanji, da se volivci minulo nedeljo niso odločali vsebinsko, temveč enostavno na podlagi tega, komu ta trenutek večinsko zaupajo: in to je še vedno veliki zmagovalec zadnjih državnozborskih volitev, Robert Golob.Celoten komentar si lahko preberete na spletnem portalu Domovina.

Chelsey Fulton has a lot of responsibilities! She is a minister's wife, mother of four children under the age of five, (two girls and twin two-year-old boys), and a Pre-K teacher. Definitely a full plate! She and her husband, Brennan, were high school sweethearts and have the sweetest love story. Chelsey shares candidly in this episode about how she suffered with postpartum depression in 2019; this caused her to deal with some perfectionistic dealings in her own life. Chelsey talks honestly about medication, therapy, and setting healthy boundaries with herself and others. She is open with us about the ongoing journey of healing, which is so helpful and refreshing. This is an authentic conversation about depression and seeking help in a world where that may feel unsettling. You are going to get a lot of encouragement from Chelsey's story.

Months ago, Senator Romney's “Family Security Act 2.0” stalled in Congress because Democrats disagreed with some key provisions. Does his proposed child tax credit have legs now that Republicans will likely have the House? What about Biden's agenda of free community college and Pre-K? Shane Stewart, DMBA Certified Financial Planner, discusses what will happen in the new Congress.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

9:05 - Split Congress It's beginning to look a lot like… divided government. Democrats have won the Senate and Republicans are a seat away from winning the House. We unpack what the GOP House will be focused on (Spoiler alert: investigations into President Biden) and what legislation might actually make it in the newly split Congress.   9:20 - Child Tax Credit/Markets Months ago, Senator Romney's “Family Security Act 2.0” stalled in Congress because Democrats disagreed with some key provisions. Does his proposed child tax credit have legs now that Republicans will likely have the House? What about Biden's agenda of free community college and Pre-K? Shane Stewart, DMBA Certified Financial Planner, discusses what will happen in the new Congress.   9:35 - Poland Missile/ABC News On Tuesday, a Russian-made missile killed two Polish persons on NATO soil.The Polish President called it an “unfortunate accident” and President Biden said it was unlikely the missile was fired from Russia. ABC News reporter Alex Presha calls in to discuss the threat level this “accident” poses for direct NATO involvement in the Ukraine war.    9:50 - Trump announcement To no one's surprise, former President Donald Trump has announced a third run for the Oval Office. We take a look at headlines around the country to gauge the national response. Ivanka Trump made a surprising statement on her future involvement in the campaign and others argue the now-Trumpist Republican party has weakened Trump's 2024 chances.    10:05 - 10:20 - Orem/Alpine The results are in, and Orem city will be sticking with Alpine School District after all. Alpine is the largest district in Utah with a whopping 82,000 students and cities ranging from American Fork to Cedar Hills. Orem Council PTA President Julie Walker explains why she is glad the measure to give Orem its own school district failed. Callers from Eagle Mountain and Orem give their own views.    10:35 - Home buyer incentives Home buyers could get incentives from some builders. The home buying market overall looks brighter, with 30 year mortgage rates dropping to 6.94% and 15 year rates dropping to 6.24%. Jed Nilson, President of Nilson Homes and 2023 President of Utah Association of Realtors, joins the show to give a great home buying tip--freezing your credit.  10:50 - Artemis Launch 3…2...1…Launch! The biggest rocket ever left Earth this morning. NASA's Artemis I is a test drive for later missions that will send satellites to space and a permanent base to the moon. Len Thomas, podcast host of Skywatcher Leo T, talks to us about why this mission matters to everyday Americans and whether this is a dry run for a base on Mars.    11:05 - Split congress Here's a hot take: GOP control of the House of Representatives is a blessing for President Biden. That's the opinion of Inside Sources host Boyd Matheson, who joins the show to discuss the gift of gridlock.    11:20 - Tech Layoffs hit hard Silicon Valley's labor force has just received a huge slash--More than 24,000 workers in 72 companies lost their jobs this month. That adds to a  total of 120,000 tech jobs lost this year" according to NPR. Justin Williams Director of Unemployment Division    11:35 - Setting boundaries with addiction 34 year old Aaron Carter passed away earlier this month after lifelong struggles with addiction and mental health concerns. The official cause of death has yet to be determined, though police reportedly found multiple cans of compressed air as well as bottles of prescription pills at the scene. Dr. Elizabeth Howell, Professor of Psychiatry at Huntsman Mental Health Institute, discusses the nuances of such a difficult topic.   11:50 - A shocking CA accident and a divided Congress There's going to be a divided Congress, and probably a new speaker. The GOP just nominated Kevin McCarthy as their speaker by a margin of 188-31. ABC News Reporter Alex Stone covers the breaking news of an SUV plowing into 22 police cadets in California. Rep Chris Stewart joins Dave and Debbie to talk about the split congress.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

The centers are stocked and ready to be used, full of materials you've purchased or made yourself. Everything is the best it could be, and you just can't wait for your students to use and enjoy every single center in the classroom.However, somehow, your kids just avoid certain centers.

When was the last time you tried something new? Was it hard? Was it scary? Was it fun?

Imagine building a search firm from scratch to $4M in billings. An incredible achievement, right? Now imagine that same business suddenly imploding from 14 team members down to just one. How would you bounce back from such a devastating loss? Would you have the heart and will to rebuild?   This is the story of my special guest, Mark Phillips. Mark is the founder and CEO of HireEducation and in this interview, he shares his journey with unflinching honesty and self-reflection. He takes ownership of the behaviours and decisions that led to the decline of the business. Based on the lessons he learned from both his successes and failures, Mark is rebuilding his business and himself - this time on stronger foundations.   Mark got into recruiting in the late 90s and has specialized in the Education Technology industry since 2006.  He launched his firm HireEducation in 2010 and by 2019 he built it into a $4M per year business. That same year, he faced his biggest challenge.  You will now hear what he's doing differently to build an even more successful business that he enjoys a whole lot more. Episode Outline and Highlights [02:34] How Mark knows our mutual friend, Jordan Rayboy. [04:38] Thoughts on recruiters as non-conformists. [12:47] How to build trust with people quickly.  [25:26] Growing a firm from nothing to a $4m annual run rate.  [40:41] The value of hiring someone to do the things you're not good at. [44:23] Overcoming a massive upheaval in 2019. [52:40] Learning from hindsight - Mark's retrospect on his most significant challenges led to him rebuilding his firm.  [1:06:15] Mark's core value in rebuilding his team. [1:09:40] What is now being done differently in Mark's second version of his business? Building From Scratch to a $4M Annual Run Rate Mark shared the key success factors that contributed to growing a $4m search firm in 9 years. There were a number of challenges they needed to overcome which anyone growing a recruitment businesses will relate to. The two biggest success factors were:   Market mastery - having an organized approach to his market. Hiring in 3's - as it takes the same amount to train 3 people as it does to train 1 person.  Hire Someone to Manage You Another significant success factor that Mark mentioned is the value of hiring an assistant. Mark's longest serving employee, Katie, was originally hired as his assistant and has contributed so much and developed her leadership skills to the point that she was recently promoted to CEO.    What is the added value of his assistant? “Operational details are not my strong suit. I am acknowledging that. When I hired Katie back in 2014, I said ‘your first job is to manage me and your second job is to manage my inbox.'”  This actually makes a lot of sense. In our coaching group, we emphasize the value of hiring someone, like a virtual assistant, that can support you on administrative tasks or operational undertakings while you focus on your business' vision and income-generating tasks. This is how Mark puts it, “Having somebody that I trusted operationally was really key from getting from $1M to $4M.”   Extreme Ownership: Improving Your Results Requires You to Own Your Mistakes   In 2019, Mark's business imploded, shrinking from 14 people back down to 1.  That was a really rough experience for Mark which led to a lot of soul-searching and shifts in personal and business focus. At the height of their success, Mark was really stressed and not sleeping well due to significant issues from his working environment. Due to cultural misalignment, a rift developed between Mark and some of his key employees who he had brought on and promoted to Partner level. Ultimately, this led Mark and his top billers to part ways, which snowballed into losing almost his entire team.  It was a truly heartbreaking experience.   In retrospect, Mark is able to analyze the situation and identify his own role in the decline of the business. As Mark described, “When I think about that time, my relationship with those three partners and team members, was not first. Consequently, it was a house of cards… In the end, it was not relationship first”. This lead him to establish a new core value when he rebuilt his business, which is to always protect the team.   You will truly appreciate Mark's candor and humility in sharing this experience, which can also be a learning moment for all of us.   Our Sponsors This podcast is proudly sponsored by i-intro and Recruitment Entrepreneur.   i-intro® is an end-to-end retained recruitment platform.

On today's episode, we have Dr. Jeff Williams on the podcast talking about his first 90 days at TCA. He's excited to be back in Dallas, which he considers home, and to TCA, which was monumental in his life. Dr. Williams says one of the highlights of his first 90 days is being around the people at TCA. The faculty and staff at TCA are gifted and love their jobs and the kids. He has loved going to the pep rallies, athletic events, and fine arts productions, and being back in the classroom and observing the excellence that is taking place there is amazing. TCA has changed from when he was a student in that the campus is bigger, and we have more students, the strength of the school, and the caliber of faculty and staff on campus. Dr. Williams feels his role is to cast vision and uphold the school's mission. Part of this is meeting with faculty and staff at least once a month. During these meetings, he is sharing things he has noticed around campus that uphold our core values: excellence, Christ-centered, tradition and community. Cynthia asked Dr. Williams about his approach in his first year. He knows that he is ambitious and competitive. His biggest prayer is God's timing and that he would move at the right pace and build trust within the community to get a good pulse on what's going great and what needs attention. During his first 90 days, he's focused on meeting people, having conversations, making notes and observing. Dr. Williams encourages parents that behind-the-scenes faculty, staff and coaches are developing children for the glory of God and fulfilling the school's mission. He's had impactful moments with students this fall: from having seniors leading devotionals at the Board of Trustees meeting to challenging our PreK classes to encourage and build up one another. Please continue to use your prayer guide to pray for the school. Consider how you are building into the community at TCA. We are stronger together than we are apart. Also, pray for wisdom and discernment for  Dr. Williams as he moves forward.

Keay Takeaways: Reclaim Your Energy, Passion, and Time Ann Holm is a Professional Certified Coach specializing in executive, leadership, and personal development. Ann is the Co-author of the book, Educator Bandwidth: How to Reclaim Your Energy, Passion, and Time – don't worry the lessons also apply to logistics and supply chain folks. In the podcast interview, Ann shared 3 strategies that people can use to be more productive, happier, and healthier, in other words reclaiming your energy, passion, and time. Strategy 1 – Be present! Mobile technology and remote work have enabled us to take our job anywhere. The problem is that we are often disengaged from the present while we worry about our latest work email or text. Stop trying to be in two places at once – it makes you way less productive. Focus on one task at a time. Stop multi-tasking, which is difficult on the brain and makes us less effective and efficient. Strategy 2 – Use cognitive steps to encourage good behavior and discourage bad behavior. Example 1: Make it easier to go to the gym by packing your gym bag and putting it by the door – increasing the chances you hit the gym. Example 2: To discourage yourself from playing with your phone while you are working, put the phone in the other room. Strategy 3 – Get organizational support that encourages and enables optimum productivity along with work life balance. Joe Lynch is one of Ann's coaching clients and he wrote the review below: “When I first engaged with Ann a decade ago, I was going through a really tough time, both professionally and personally. I felt like I had lost my way and developed some bad habits. I wanted more, but I didn't know how to get it. Working with Ann helped me recognize both my strengths and weaknesses. More importantly, we together developed a path to my goals that enabled me to leverage my strengths while avoiding the pitfalls that had tripped me up so many times in the past. Ann helped me to see my potential to influence others and encouraged me to start a blog that eventually became my business. Today, The Logistics of Logistics podcast is one of the leading business news podcasts and I would have never started it had I not met Ann – she even came up with the name!” — Joe Lynch, Podcast Host, The Logistics of Logistics Learn More About Reclaim Your Energy, Passion, and Time Ann on LinkedIn AnnHolm.net Educator Bandwidth: How to Reclaim Your Energy, Passion, and Time (Barnes and Noble) Educator Bandwidth: How to Reclaim Your Energy, Passion, and Time (Amazon) Related Episodes: Uncover Your Potential With Ann Holm The Psychology of Solving Big Problems with Ann Holm Using Resilience to Get Out of Your Own Way with Ann Holm Developing Grit with Ann Holm Emotional Intelligence in Sales with Ann Holm Understanding Your Sales Personality with Ryan Schreiber and Ann Holm Becoming More Influential with Ann Holm Using Resilience to Get Out of Your Own Way with Ann Holm The Secret to Improved Sales with Ann Holm The Logistics of Logistics Podcast If you enjoy the podcast, please leave a positive review, subscribe, and share it with your friends and colleagues.

This edWeb podcast is sponsored by Frog Street. The webinar recording can be accessed here.It's not only reading success that is impacted by reading aloud to children. Read alouds strengthen their social, emotional, and character development for success in life. Reading aloud to early learners models fluent and expressive reading, models the reading process, facilitates comprehension for English language learners, provides interactions with a variety of texts, helps children make connections, stimulates participation, and encourages sharing of children's thoughts.

Jessica Baldizon understands the superpower of speaking more than one language.  She teaches English to Speakers of Other Languages (ESOL) at Cesar Batalla Elementary School in Bridgeport, Connecticut, the second-largest preK thru 8 school in Connecticut.  Her students include many immigrants and refugees from around the world.Like many of her students' parents, Jessica's mother, father, and her maternal grandparents came to the U.S. as refugees; her family fled the war in Nicaragua in 1984.  Jessica has first-hand experience as a cultural and language broker in her own family.  Her background and experiences growing up have allowed Jessica to help her students hone this amazing asset as they help their family navigate new spaces.Many of Jessica's students come into school with worries and stresses that have to be addressed before teaching and learning can happen.  Before all else, she focuses on helping her students feel a sense of security and belonging.Jessica challenges the resource constraints of the status quo by leveraging technology and calling on community to ensure that her students have plenty of books to share with one another, uniform shirts that fit, and the pencils, pens and paint sets they need to create with and learn.  Check out her Donors Choose page HERE (and link below) to see some of her current and past requests.As we discuss, she is rarely idle - in addition to her daily teaching, Jessica leads both an active after-school program called HOPE club, as well as a summer writing camp, called Ubuntu Academy, through the Connecticut Writing Project with her fiancé, also a teacher in the Bridgeport school system.It was no surprise to us to learn that Jessica received the 2022 Bridgeport Public Education Fund Inspiration Award for Outstanding Teaching earlier this year.  Every day she is a difference-maker, preparing her students to create the world they want to live in.Episode Links and Resources:Jessica's DonorsChoose PageConnecticut Writer's Program- Ubuntu Academy“Where Language is No Barrier,” Sacred Heart University Magazine Feature About Jessica Baldizon2022 Inspiration Award for Outstanding TeachingSupport this podcast by subscribing and reviewing!Music is considered “royalty-free” and discovered on Audio Blocks.Technical Podcast Support by: Jon Keur at Wayfare Recording Co.© 2022 Silver Linings Media LLC.
