In Today's Show Announcements and News Interview: Peter Defty from Vespa Power Get Gritty: The Setback Script TriDot Workout of the Week: Race Rehearsal Fun Segment: Coach Cari Lubenow / “That Pro Triathlon Life” Announcements and News: IRONMAN Press Release: Single One Day World Championship in Kona. From Scott Derue Dear Triathlon `Ohana, Over the past year, the question I have been asked the most has been about the future of the IRONMAN World Championship. For the first time in its history, the IRONMAN World Championship moved to split locations in 2023 for two reasons. Significant numbers of deferrals from cancellations due to the COVID-19 pandemic required two days of racing, and a 2-day, single-location format was tried in 2022 and found to be unsustainable for the local community in Kona, Hawai`i. With a deep commitment to and care for the Kona community, combined with the rich triathlon history and iconic sporting legacy of Nice, France, the decision was made to hold the men and women's races in different locations. In addition, aligned with IRONMAN's goal of growing the sport of triathlon, it was expected that split locations for men and women's racing would lead to greater exposure for all and more women participating in the sport of triathlon. Since first announcing that format change, we have been meticulous in monitoring and reviewing athlete behavior, collecting feedback, and conducting extensive research. Putting the needs and preferences of our athletes first – and thinking about the long-term growth of triathlon – we are excited to announce that, beginning in 2026, the IRONMAN World Championship will return to its roots of Hawai'i, with Kona hosting a reimagined single day of racing, bringing women and men together for the IRONMAN World Championship.

More often than not, the holidays are a hectic time. Between shopping, cooking, cleaning, eating, and seeing friends and family, it can all be a lot to manage. Staying on top of diets and staying away from over-indulging can be difficult, and can seem impossible. This is why preparation is key.We often think of preparing for the holidays in terms of deciding what meals to cook or strategizing on where to spend them, but it's equally as important to mentally prepare for them. In this solo episode, I guide you through how to navigate this holiday season in a way that isn't overwhelming, emotionally charged, or stressful. I offer helpful tips on how to plan and provide insight into why it's important to do so.Tune in to Episode 163 of REJUVENAGING® and plan for a peaceful holiday season. In This Episode, You Will Learn:Why it's important to plan for the holidays (2:12)What I mean by ‘planning' for the holidays (3:08)The main thing I recommend for planning for the holidays (3:52)How to build safeguards around planning for the holidays (5:01)How to try and change major behaviors during the holidays (8:59)Useful REJUVENAGING® ResourcesWebsite: https://www.thementalhealthgym.com/Book: Dr. Ron Kaiser -Rejuvenaging: The Art and Science of Growing Older with EnthusiasmEmail: ron.kaiser@thementalhealthgym.com TEDx Talk: Aging Enthusiastically to Make the World a Better Place Hosted on Acast.

This week is our next installment of seeing how Eric is doing in his new school. As a refresher, here is last month's update. Last time, we gave him three strategies: - Strategy 1: add 15–30 minutes to however long you think each meeting will be. - Strategy 2: You seem upset, what's the best way to contact you when he gets back at X? - Strategy 3: intentional Drive-bys - Schedule time to go be visible. We checkin on those ideas and then talk about what he's facing today. Eric shared a great strategy today: Strategy #1: Create a “canned response” in your email provider to send to people when they are upset inviting them to talk in person or on the phone. It's never a good idea to get in an email war. Much better to have a conversation with a person who is upset. Creating a response you send that always invites someone to meet with you and resolve differences is a sure-fire way to stop email wars and keyboard warriors. Strategy #2: Schedule to send out that email! Don't send it immediately after you write it. Give everyone time to cool down. Today, Eric asks the question, “How can I help teachers have confidence that I'll stick around so they'll stop avoiding digging into the work?” This is a valid question. Teachers want to know you'll stick around before they commit, but that is really just smokescreen for trust issues. They don't trust you yet. People don't actually care how long you'll be around if they can trust you now. Eric and I discuss some ways to make sure they are experiencing that trust, including doing the exact opposite of what a teacher specifically requests. We highlight how to deal with past issues of traumatic experiences and how to do better in the future. We also share one of the great books i've read recently: What happened to you. Finally, I gave Eric two pieces of advice: 1. Preplan how you will exit when you do exit the school (spoiler alert: everyone leaves the school!) 2. Create different experiences around what were bad experiences! We'll be back with another interview with Eric at the beginning of December!

DTFF: The Volunteer Firefighter Podcast - Down To Fight Fire
E178 - MOTIS Update, Live Fire x 3 and PrePlan with the Side By Side This week we were with Luke, Alex and Chris from MOTIS. We talk about the content generated , the training and the over-all good times had. We went on to talk about our weekly training which included Positive Pressure Attack , SCBA Confidence and FORTIS Gas awareness. WHO WE ARE As a group of Rural Volunteer Firefighters, our Fire Department has built our firefighter training from both old and new tactics in the fire service and adapted them to fit the realities of equipment, manpower, and costs around what our community requires. WHAT WE DO We create video, audio and written word content to share these training and tactics methods with our Brothers and Sisters in our extended fire families, and to showcase to those that may be interested in becoming firefighters the fun you can have and the amazing skills and abilities you get to learn, whilst keeping the lives of the people around you safe! WHY WE SHARE Firefighters are problem solvers whose role requires them to be on their best day whilst others are having their worst day, and while we do not claim to be perfect we are willing to put our lives on the line to try. It's during the trying that we continue to develop the mindset, tactics, and training that allow us to be effective, safe and successful where it's needed the most, and by sharing our experiences we hope that it may help other Fire Departments in creating what works for them to help bring everyone home safe.

Thriving in the Midst of Chaos: Parenting With Special Needs Kids
Episode 117: Thriving Through The Holidays In this episode, Dr. Koonce discusses the best ways to thrive through the holidays with children who have special needs. She also discusses helpful at-home ABA strategies. It is important to prepare for the holidays with your special needs kids for many reasons, including loss of routine, change in structure, trying to set a new routine for a short time, having other people living in or visiting in our space, more planning for things that are new, eating schedules, bathing schedules, navigating face masks, and fatigue. She recommends that you as a parent see what emotional resources you have available before trying a lot of new things during the holidays. Keep your children in contact with some daily routines during the holiday season. Figure out where your strengths are, and play up those. Think about what is actually doable for you and your family during the holiday break. Use a tag-team approach. Preplan all troubleshooting, when possible. Try to set up a village or community with other parents, in order to have a partnership or extra assistance. For family who cannot make it in person to celebrate the holidays, find creative ways to “include” them. Schedule things based on activities rather than time. Make sure to keep your needs in mind and offer yourself self-care. Don't try to make things perfect. Instead, focus on the things that mean the most to you. Involve your children in the activities as much as possible, in ways they can participate. Share experiences with them. Plan fun activities to look forward to in the future. The best at-home ABA strategy is to create antecedent interventions. Figure out what you and your child need in the moment. Model behaviors that you want them to do. It is ok for us to make mistakes. Think about what is actually doable. Ask providers what you can do in the meantime while you are on the waiting list. Do other therapies in the meantime. Consider a one-time consult to help in the interim. ABA can also provide recommendations to your school providers for ways that the school could help support or help that child. Sometimes, you can start in clinic ABA prior to starting at-home ABA. Dr. Koonce recommends several ways to find trainings for parents in ABA. Reach out to local universities, as practicum students may be able to offer trainings for credit. There are lots of online ABA trainings as well. There can be live online collaborations or courses. You can go through the registered behavior technician trainings. Behavior and Educational Solutions Blog Facebook LinkedIn Twitter DHHS Email us if you have any questions or ideas!

Paul YoungMessage from ForsakenNymph“I just now got to listen to the latest episode. It was good, as always. My condolences to losing Funsize. During the show, someone chatted a line about complacency. That made me think about an idea for the next show. You touched on introducing kink (honeymoon phase). How do you keep things interesting/spice things up after you have gone through every page of your "kinky Kamasutra"? What is the importance of continued open communication after you have gotten to know your partner? What are the dangers of mindreading or expecting someone to know what you want because you have been together a while? Just an idea. ;-)”How do you keep things interesting or spice things up after you have gone through every page of your "kinky Kamasutra"?Hanging out with other kinksters.Attending playspaces or new playspaces.Explore soft limits.Readdress hard limits.What is the importance of continued open communication after you have gotten to know your partner?The most important thing people can do.You never really know a person.Most people start to think they know someone when the New Relationship Energy (N.R.E.) starts to fade but this is not at all true.What are the dangers of mindreading or expecting someone to know what you want because you have been together a while?These two things fall right in line with the saying “strive to understand before being understood”. Also, for most people, they are the two biggest pitfalls of effective communication. Let’s break them up into the two categories of Mindreading and Managing Expectations.Mindreading:As humans, this is probably one of the most arrogant and stupid things that we do. Besides this, when we think we know what someone is thinking or feeling we are taking away their freedom to think and feel the way they typically would. This is because you place pressure on them to think, feel, and be just like you. It’s like the only people we want to be in a relationship with is ourselves. When you catch yourself thinking you already know what your partner or anyone else is thinking or feeling that is when you need to communicate the most. Make sure that you are really on the same page. Think about it, if you are right then you have immediate confirmation that you know them as you think you. If you are wrong, chances it will lead to a bonding conversation. Either way, you are showing them respect by asking, not telling them how they think and feel, thus strengthening your relationship. We want to take communication and relationship shortcuts but humans are to complex for that and we are not built to take those shortcuts. We need to be heard and understood.Managing Expectations:How often you do become upset, angry, or depressed because someone didn’t react to something the way you thought they would. Maybe they weren’t as excited about something as you were and it bummed you out because you expected them to be over the moon or you had what seemed like the worst day ever and they pretty much gave you a pat on the ass and told you to “shake it off” but you expected them to become enraged with them at the idiot boss they have to deal with on their job? How did this make you feel, how did you react and how did this immediately affect the relationship? Were you disappointed, angry, hurt, confused? Through remembering that people have their own thoughts and feelings separate from your and that their perception of the situation IS going to vary from yours, you can manage your expectations of others, allow them the freedom of being themselves, and save your relationship, from a lot of rough times.Message from dravendomonHello to all who read this. I am in need of some advice. I am new to the lifestyle and would like some insight. My wife and I have recently moved into an open-closed relationship with me on the open end. I have wanted to have that conversation with her for a few months. On Saturday night I was at my monthly dungeons and dragons game and as I was not driving I was drinking. When I got home after the game I ended up in a very emotional conversation with her about her currently nonexistent sex drive and that I would like to seek out someone that would be able to fill my need. I also have a desire for a D/s relationship. The advice I need is in how to handle the conversation with my wife. She is a very strong Type A personality and I don't want to end my marriage. I just don't know how to talk to her about this sober. Would a contract of a sort be something we should look at. Any advice or insight would be very appreciated.This sounds simply complex on the outside but in all reality, this is one of the most common and most complex situations an existing couple goes through as one or both of them realize a need that BDSM can fulfill.Any conversation worth having is worth having sober.Understand that while you may think you are freer to speak while intoxicated or under the influence of a substance, you are actually under the control of the consequences you will have to suffer because you said something the wrong way, couldn’t control your emotions during the conversation and went into a blabbering crying fit, became angry and popped off with things that the other person didn’t deserve, or you flat out lied. Thus the only way to have productive and effective conversations is to take control of your fears and have the conversation. There aren’t any tips or tricks to this that I’ve ever heard that worked. The only thing that has helped me in the past is to set the stage and the rules and go back to them as needed. With that said, writing them down beforehand and scheduling the conversation when all parties are well rested, not hungry, and in a generally decent mood is essential. Here are a few steps to help:Preplan using the things I just mentionedAsk the other person or people involved when would be a good time to have a serious conversation. While doing this ensure them that nothing is wrong but that you have been thinking about YOUR roll in the relationship and you want to talk about ways you could be better. Remember, even in this step it is all about “I statements” NOT “you statements”.When its time to have the conversation start it with the rules by saying something like “I love you and you are the most important person or thing in the world to me AND some of the things we are going to talk about could hurt the other person. This is because I am going to ask you to speak honestly about my roll in our relationship and ways I can improve. So to make sure we don’t end up saying something we might regret and this doesn’t turn into a fight I’ve got some rules that we can talk about and agree on first.1: No fighting.2: No name calling.3: No words of disrespect.4: If things get heated we will take a break and sit quietly holding each other or at least holding hands until both are ready to continue.5: No interrupting each other.6: This conversation will not end here. In a few days, after we have given it some thought we will dive back into it.7: We will not allow ourselves to hurt each other because we love and respect each other.8: We will remember that this is different for us to communicate this way but we promise to be open, honest, respectful and give it try because it could make our relationship even better than it already is.9: When this session is over we will reassure each other that we are loved, cherished, wanted, respected, and desired by the other person.10: We will enjoy a reward together for making it through our talk without breaking any of the first nine rules.10a: Rewards could be sex, ice cream or a favorite treat, dinner out, a movie, snuggling in bed and going to sleep, or something else agreed upon now before we start the talk.“Would a contract be helpful?”Yes! As you start the talk make it known that you will be taking notes and offer her a pen and paper so she can as well. You might as well add note-taking to the rules. If you do this, I would also add that the notes will present, talk about, and agree upon at the start of the next session. Making these sound like formal business meeting can often put people in more of a logical mindset and helps them keep a check on their emotional state.As you have this conversation you will effectively be writing an agreement that can easily be turned into a contract and the cool thing about doing this way is that nearly all the details have been worked out.Executive Producers Jeremiah, Sihlus, Jess, and ArcaneDgr & violetaurelia.

When does a mother deliberately practice being a mom? Many moms would argue that they are practicing 24/7. What if being with your children isn’t practicing, it’s game time. Deliberate practice means we need to prioritize a few minutes to be mindful, balance our internal systems, and prepare for success.
