In this episode of Building Better Developers, Rob Broadhead and Michael Meloche revisit their earlier topic from “User Stories Unveiled – A Developer's Guide to Capturing the Full Narrative.” They add structure and talking points—some suggested by ChatGPT—but the real focus remains on how to effectively use user stories in software development. At their core, user stories help teams communicate purpose and intent. They turn generic requirements into actionable, testable narratives that align with real-world needs. The Power of Story: A Proven Format for Software Success User stories follow a simple but powerful structure: As a [user], I want [feature], so that [benefit]. This format helps everyone—from developers to stakeholders—understand what's needed and why. For instance: As a customer, I want to check my account balance so I can make smart spending decisions. Even that brief statement can imply multiple technical requirements. Rob explains how this format helps uncover both functional and non-functional needs—making user stories in software development a critical tool for better results. Turning User Stories Into Requirements That Work Michael takes the discussion deeper by showing how user stories translate into system requirements. Each story triggers important “what if” scenarios: What if there's no balance data? How should errors be handled? What's the next logical user action? These questions drive refinement. The more complete the story, the fewer assumptions developers have to make. When applied well, user stories in software development help identify edge cases and clarify expectations early. Using User Stories in Software Development to Drive Testing Another benefit of user stories? They support test-driven development (TDD). Michael points out that frameworks like Cucumber allow you to write test cases in plain, user-focused language. These tests validate features against the original intent of the story. User stories help developers think from the user's perspective. Instead of focusing on implementation first, they focus on proof. What needs to work—and how do we confirm that it does? What Makes a Great User Story in Software Development? Rob introduces the INVEST model, a proven framework for evaluating user stories: Independent Negotiable Valuable Estimable Small Testable These qualities ensure that stories are manageable, relevant, and easy to test. The team emphasizes avoiding overly technical stories that don't reflect user value. The goal is always to create stories that can guide discussion, development, and testing without confusion. Pitfalls to Avoid When Writing User Stories One major mistake? Saying “Just tell me what to build.” Rob warns this is a dangerous mindset that reduces developers to order-takers. Instead, good developers ask why, challenge assumptions, and uncover the real goals behind each feature. Michael notes that in smaller teams, developers often take on the role of product owner or analyst. That means refining and sometimes even writing the user stories themselves. In those cases, clarity and curiosity become essential to avoid rework or misalignment. Prioritizing and Revisiting User Stories in Software Development Not every story belongs in version 1.0. The hosts advise teams to revisit their backlog and separate must-haves from nice-to-haves. Many projects waste time building features that never get used—often because they weren't properly vetted. Use user stories to define your MVP (Minimum Viable Product). Anything outside of that can go into a backlog for future releases. This helps teams stay focused and deliver real value quickly. Final Thoughts: Better Stories, Better Software This episode reinforces a simple truth: user stories in software development are a gateway to better communication, clearer requirements, and stronger software outcomes. When teams understand the who, what, and why of every feature, they build smarter solutions faster. Callout: Don't Code Without a Story Before you build anything, ask: Who is this for? What do they want? Why does it matter? Let purpose drive your process—and let the user lead the story.

In this episode of Take-Away with Sam Oches, Sam talks with Pike Howard, the co-owner of Felipe's Taqueria, a six-unit fast-casual concept out of New Orleans that has prioritized its systems and business model in its nearly 20 years in business as it slowly grows across the South. Pike was a finance guy when his father-in-law pulled him into the Felipe's business, and that mindset has benefited the company as Pike has helped it develop a strong brand identity, vision, and infrastructure and to resist the urge to grow quickly. Pike joined the podcast to talk about why unit growth has not been as much of a priority as internal growth and how the fast-casual category's evolution has made hospitality all the more important to today's consumer.

Nowadays, there is more to it than money.Health, energy, peace of mind and financial well-being are now core to the definition of wealth. Wealth now also implies having physical vitality, emotional clarity and strong relationships on top of financial stability.Dr. Levine explains how financial stress impacts physical health. Canadians often underestimate how much stress about money affects their day-to-day.[03:11] Dr. Noah: “Our financial wellness is so closely connected to our overall well-being. Financial stress can have impacts on a number of areas of our health, one of those is sleep.”[05:47] Basics of Health and Well-beingDr. Levine encourages starting with simple, science-backed habits that build a healthy life.He breaks down the core areas: balanced nutrition, regular movement, and quality sleep.Prioritizing relationships also play a major role in long-term well-being.These foundations are essential for building resilience, performance, and financial well-being over time.[09:43] The PERMA Model of Well-beingWell-being isn't just the absence of illness—it's about living with meaning and intention.Dr. Levine introduces the PERMA model: Positive Emotion, Engagement, Relationships, Meaning, and Achievement.Fulfilling each component of the PERMA model enhances our quality of life.Focusing on these elements helps people feel more fulfilled and aligned with their values.[12:21] Building Resilience and Coping with StressResilience can also mean adapting to stress and unpredictability rather than trying to remove it entirely from our lives.Dr. Levine shares “micro skills” like pausing, walking, or using mindfulness to manage stress in real time.He introduces the flexibility mindset: a belief that you can face challenges with optimism and control.[16:06] Dr. Noah: “The flexibility mindset is basically a conviction that no matter what happens, I'm going to find a way to deal with this.”This mindset helps people recover faster and stay grounded during uncertainty.[17:47] Employer Support for Employee Well-beingDr. Levine shares how employers can support employee health through smart, strategic interventions.He highlights flu clinics, healthy scheduling, and wellness programs as proactive health tools.In today's strained healthcare system, employers can fill critical gaps in mental and physical care.[23:28] Preparing for RetirementRetirement is a new life stage that requires emotional, physical, and cognitive preparation.Dr. Levine outlines how physical activity, sleep, and mental stimulation support long-term health.Social connection prevents isolation and helps retirees maintain happiness and mental sharpness.Finding purpose and setting new goals after work creates a fulfilling retirement experience.[28:25] Elevating Financial Well-being Through Intentional LivingSmall actions can lead to major life transformation — similar to how financial investments can grow to large sums over time.[28:59] Dr. Noah: “I don't really think it matters where you start. I think what matters is making a commitment to yourself and taking that first step.”Real wealth includes energy, clarity, and a sense of accomplishment which can be done from repeating small wins.Staying connected to your “why” makes it easier to sustain health and financial well-being.Intentional choices today shape the life you want to live tomorrow.About Dr. Noah Dr. Noah Levine is a Family and Occupational Medicine Physician and the Corporate Medical Director at CIBC.

In this episode I argue that we should choose to work on the first thing that comes to mind, rather than prioritize. While such behavior will cut into the time you would have spent on some other more prioritized task, it will be absolutely worth it. Choosing the non-prioritized action means much more movement, increasing the transition dynamics inside your state of possibilities. The long run outcomes are far better when you work on it the moment you think about it. This is all to highlight a fundamental pattern in information and creativity.

Chipping away at the identity she had built over decades: the high-functioning, rule-following, always-doing-for-others version of herself.But instead of breaking down, she broke through.Through content creation and now stand-up comedy, Sherri rediscovered her voice, her fire, and the freedom of being fully herself. This conversation is for every Gen X woman who's felt herself fading in midlife and is ready to take up space again, loudly, imperfectly, and unapologetically.Menopause doesn't just affect you physically but emotionally as well. There is a conversation and self reflection you need to have with yourself. Who am I? What do I even like anymore? Prioritizing self care and letting go of the long ingrained belief that self care is selfish.If you've ever felt lost in the chaos of menopause or unsure who you are without all the roles, you are not alone.

In Luke 10:38-42, Martha begins well by welcoming Jesus into her home. Yet things quickly go awry as Martha becomes overwhelmed by her hosting duties and misses out on Christ. Much like Martha, it's easy to become distracted by many things and miss out on the presence of Christ in our lives. Christ offers a firm, yet gentle correction to Martha, and does the same to us as well – true discipleship prioritizes the presence and word of the Lord above all else. Chandler McCosh teaches.

Prioritizing mental health in your organization is critical for student leaders! At 28, William Walker has worn a lot of titles—author, fraternity president, cancer survivor, board chair. But the most honest title might be: in process. He was 22 and had his whole life planned—until cancer stole his vision. Will was 5 when leukemia first taught him that life doesn't follow your timeline. He has rebuilt his life through vulnerability, structure, and community support—and that rebuilding process becomes the foundation for leading others through their darkest moments. In episode 590 of the Fraternity Foodie Podcast, we find out how Will's experiences with leukemia, bipolar disorder, and leadership roles in Phi Kappa Psi shaped the way he views leadership today, what he means when he says his struggles qualified him for leadership, what are the early warning signs of a personal crisis within your student organization, how vulnerability, structure, and community support helped him to rebuild, what crisis taught him about leading when no one's watching, what does "creative capital steward" mean, a moment when a dream he had for his life died and what replaced it, how storytelling, journaling, or poetry actually make us better leaders, and how to prioritize mental health in your organization. Enjoy! Connect with Will on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/william-walker-fpqp%C2%AE-a82a3534b/

Summer is here, and with it comes the perfect chance to hit pause on the box-checking frenzy and really connect with our kids. In this week's episode of the podcast, we dive into one of my favorite topics: creating joyful, low-pressure family memories (without overloading your plate—or your calendar). Why Fun Matters (Even for Year-Round Homeschoolers!) Remember, while academics are important, authentic connection is the real foundation for lifelong learning. When we prioritize laughter, conversation, and shared experiences, our kids build trust, emotional safety, and a love for learning. Fun isn't an interruption—it's the heart of education, especially for neurodivergent kids who thrive when joy is woven into their days. Here are some highlights and takeaways: Release the Guilt—Fun is Productive It's easy to feel guilty when we haven't checked enough boxes or finished the curriculum. But as Colleen says: “Fun is productive, especially for 2e, ADHD, anxious, or autistic learners. It helps them regulate and sparks creative thinking.” And it's the simple, everyday moments—late-night talks, silly dance parties, or sharing a new hobby—that kids remember most. Let's Model Joyful Adulthood Our kids look to us as their prime example of what adulthood—and parenthood—should feel like. Let's show them that happiness, connection, and fulfillment are as valuable as diligence. Prioritizing fun and togetherness, especially during these summer months, sets a positive tone for the school year ahead—and for life. Want More Support & Ideas? If you need inspiration—or a community of other outside-the-box families—the Learner's Lab is full of monthly themes, connection challenges, live clubs (hello, Doodle + Lego Club!), and coaching calls. There's a whole archive of fun waiting for you whenever you want to jump in. How will you make FUN part of your family's summer?

What can architects learn from a Swedish coffee break? Turns out, quite a lot. In this episode, we explore how cultural rituals, minimalist values, and thoughtful leadership can shape not only great design, but also a resilient and balanced architecture practice. I sit down with Johan Sundberg, founder of Johan Sundberg Arkitektur, to explore what it takes to build a thoughtful, sustainable architecture practice. From his early days as a student to leading one of Sweden's most respected residential architecture firms, Johan shares how culture, design, and business intersect in his work. We talk about how Fika, the Swedish tradition of taking intentional breaks, shapes the studio culture and creates space for connection. Johan shares how he approaches every project as a balance of interior design, landscape, and architecture, with a strong emphasis on minimalism and livability. We also discuss how AI is impacting the profession, why strong client relationships matter more than ever, and the kind of mindset young architects need to thrive in today's industry. Whether you're running your own practice or still finding your place in the field, this conversation is full of insights you won't want to miss. Key Takeaways: Building a sustainable architecture firm takes clarity, creativity, and consistency. Fika is more than a coffee break — it's a cultural practice that encourages team bonding and mental resets. Successful projects balance interiors, landscape design, and the home as one unified experience. The Ingso House reflects Swedish minimalism and thoughtful residential design. Interior and landscape design are not add-ons — they're integral to creating livable homes. The viral Laudan Shed shows how even small structures can make a big architectural impact. Strong client relationships drive long-term firm success. Leading a firm means constantly navigating expectations and evolving workflows. Prioritizing work-life balance is key to avoiding burnout. AI has potential in architecture, but its effectiveness depends on how it's integrated. About the Guest: Johan Sundberg's architectural work started in Lund almost 20 years ago. He grew up interested in art, architecture, and graphic design. At 19, he found his way to architecture, a suitable mix of art and technology. Johan studied architecture at Lund University and had a breakthrough with his first significant house, Villa Bergman-Werntoft, designed during his final year at school and built in Ljunghusen in southern Sweden. After this first success, Johan received commissions for several more houses. The office can now showcase an impressive portfolio, with most homes in Skåne and southern Sweden built close to nature and driven by a distinct architectural language. The office has also designed apartments and office environments and created Andrum, a peaceful, elegant spa facility in the town of Höör. The office's approach always starts from the experience; “We work from a total effect of the architectural tools, an emotional response, not an artificial order,” says Johan. “It's about human needs and atmospheres.” Check out his website: www.johansundberg.com/Instagram: @johansundbergarkitektur

This conversation is full of insights that will make you rethink what's "normal" in bed, and help you embrace your desires with more compassion and clarity. Dr. Lehmiller reveals the most common sexual fantasies (hint: kink is more mainstream than you think) and explains what our fantasies say about our emotional needs and life history. We explore the truth about gender differences in fantasies, how to safely explore kink and consensual non-monogamy, and research on why some people thrive with casual sex while others don't. This episode covers practical tips for talking about fantasies with your partner without shame or pressure, plus why self-awareness (not fantasy content) is the key to sexual fulfillment. Whether you're curious about exploring fantasies, navigating open relationships, or just want to understand the psychology of desire, this conversation brings research and real talk together in a way that's both validating and thought-provoking.
