Celebrate our 250th episode with expert strategies that make tough conversations easier — and more meaningful.Some of the most meaningful shifts in how we communicate come from the moments that challenge us the most. In this special 250th episode of Think Fast Talk Smart, Matt Abrahams reflects on the insights that have shown him how conflict can become a catalyst for clarity, connection, and even compassion. From Amy Gallo's reminder that the “right kind of conflict” leads to better outcomes to Jenn Wynn's framework for calming our nervous system before stepping into a hard conversation and Julia Minson's HEAR method for signaling genuine curiosity, each tool helps turn tension into understanding for every stage of conflict. And with Joseph Grenny's guidance on noticing when our motives shift from problem-solving to winning, this episode highlights how self-awareness can reset even the toughest moments. Whether you're navigating workplace disagreements or everyday friction at home, this milestone episode offers practical ways to make difficult dialogue feel less daunting — and a real opportunity to communicate better.Episode Reference Links:Amy GalloAmy's Book: Getting Along: How to Work With AnyoneEp.144 Communicating Through Conflict: How to Get Along with AnyoneJenn Wynn  Jenn's Podcast: The H.I.

Who's ready to take a breath, pause, and REFLECT with me during this busy, yet beautiful holiday season? This week's episode is a POWERFUL and timely one that can absolutely change the trajectory of your next year. Before you sprint into 2026 with new goals, new plans, and big dreams, I want you to PAUSE. Because clarity, confidence, and courage doesn't just come from looking forward — it comes from looking BACK and extracting the GOLD from 2025 also. And that's exactly what we are doing today. This episode is all about the transformational power of reflection and why it is STEP ONE in creating your BEST YEAR YET. You ready?! WHY REFLECTION MATTERS (5-GAME-CHANGING REASONS): 1. Reflection creates clarity amid the chaos. Life is loud. Fast. Busy. Reflection slows the noise, shifts you from autopilot to intentionality, and gives you crystal-clear focus. Clarity is jet fuel for your goals. 2. Reflection builds confidence by celebrating wins. Most people forget how far they've come. Reflection forces you to capture the GOOD, celebrate the wins, and remember this truth: YOU are capable, resilient, and stronger than you think. 3. Reflection turns challenges into wisdom. Challenges don't break you — they SHAPE you. When you write them down, pain turns into purpose and lessons become leverage for the future. 4. Reflection reduces stress and anxiety. Writing is therapeutic. When thoughts stay in your head, they create pressure. When they hit paper, they create perspective. Lighten the load. Breathe. Release. 5. Reflection realigns you with purpose and values. Reflection reconnects you to what matters most — faith, family, mission, calling. It's a recalibration of your internal GPS. 10 POWERFUL QUESTIONS TO REFLECT ON IN 2025: Take time with these. Don't rush them. Write them out. 1. What were your TOP 5 wins or highlights of 2025? 2. What were your biggest challenges — and what did they teach you? 3. In what ways did you grow the most this year? 4. What did you START in 2025 that you want to AMPLIFY in 2026? 5. What did you tolerate in 2025 that you will NO LONGER tolerate in 2026? 6. What relationships mattered most — and how can you be more intentional with them? 7. What habits FUELED you? What habits DRAINED you? 8. What are you most PROUD of in 2025? 9. Where did you feel the presence of God the most this year? 10. If 2025 were a chapter in the book of your life, what would the TITLE be? These questions are where breakthroughs happen. Not only do I share many of my answers, I ask you to answer them as well. When you start with reflection, your goals become more meaningful, your vision becomes clearer, and your drive becomes PURER. ACTION STEPS: Please Block out 30–60 minutes this week, find a quiet space, grab your journal or Annual Strategic Plan, and start writing. Breathe. Reflect. Don't overthink it. When you take time to pause and look back, you extract the wisdom of 2025 and create a powerful launchpad for what's next.

It was a full slate of NFL action today, and we're breaking down everything you need to know from a wild Sunday across the league. We start with the Rams outlasting the Lions in a shootout, as Matthew Stafford and Puka Nacua powered a massive second-half comeback. We hit the NFC South chaos as the Falcons stunned the Buccaneers with a last-second field goal, keeping Tampa Bay's playoff hopes shaky.From there, we dive into two absolute defensive statements — the Eagles and Ravens both pitching shutouts, dominating the Raiders and Bengals respectively. We also cover Houston continuing its surge behind C.J. Stroud in a convincing win over the Cardinals, while the Bears steamrolled the Browns in a complete team performance.In the NFC East, the Commanders handled the Giants thanks to big special teams plays, while Jacksonville embarrassed the Jets as Trevor Lawrence delivered one of the best performances of his career. We close things out with the 49ers staying hot against the Titans, showcasing why San Francisco remains one of the most dangerous teams heading toward the postseason.Playoff races tightened, contenders separated themselves, and a few teams made loud statements — we're reacting to all of it from top to bottom.Tap into Episode 662 of the Productive Conversations Podcast—available now on all podcast platforms and YouTube.Bills vs Patriots (4:10)Colts vs Seahawks (6:03)Chargers vs Chiefs (7:48)Broncos vs Packers (9:59)Rams vs Lions (11:46)Falcons vs Buccaneers (13:12)Eagles vs Raiders (15:12)Ravens vs Bengals (16:13)Texans Vs Cardinals (18:28)Bears vs Browns (19:08)Giants vs Commanders (20:54)Jets vs Jaguars (22:22)49ers vs Titans (24:12)Cowboys vs Vikings (25:28)MNF Pick (26:52)Look to Next Week (29:00)--------#nfl #football #nflfootball #nflnews #trending #sports #culture --------Best way to contact our host is by emailing him at productiveconversationspodcast@gmail.com or mbrown3212@gmail.comThis show has been brought to you by Magic Mind!Right now you can get your Magic Mind at WWW.MAGICMIND.COM/ PCLT20 to get 20% off a one-time purchase or up to 48% off a subscription using that code PCJUNE. Apple Podcast: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/productive-conversations-with-matt-brown/id1535871441 Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/7qCsxuzYYoeqALrWu4x4Kb YouTube: @Productive_Conversations  Linktree:https://linktr.ee/productiveconversations

Digestive wellness for a sharper, more productive you: Dr K Domingo by Radio Islam

This week's episode comes to you straight from the breathtaking mountains of Whitefish, Montana, where our recent Annual IMPACT Retreat reached an entirely new level of inspiration, depth, and energy. The room was electric, the ambience was inspiring, and the conversations were powerful. And today, I've got something incredibly special for you — a LIVE interview with one of my closest friends and one of the brightest minds in all of professional sports, Chris Young, better known as "CY." Chris isn't just the President of the Texas Rangers — he's a Princeton graduate, a 17- year professional baseball veteran, a Major League All-Star, and a World Series champion both as a player and as an executive. But beyond the titles, CY is one of the most thoughtful, grounded, humble, and high-performing leaders I know. I trained him for more than a decade through the ups, the downs, the injuries, the comebacks, and the championship moments. We've shared thousands of hours in the gym, countless conversations about mindset, family, excellence, adversity, and purpose… and to bring him to Whitefish this year was truly special. In this candid, emotional, and wisdom-filled conversation, CY opens up about his journey from Princeton to the Big Leagues to leading a world-class MLB organization. He talks about culture, leadership, adversity, mindset, fatherhood, and the exact values that have shaped his life and the Texas Rangers clubhouse. If you're a business owner, parent, athlete, coach, sports fan, or anyone striving to be a better leader, this episode is going to speak directly to your soul. What You'll Learn in This Episode: The core values CY built the Rangers organization around and how YOU can apply them to your team, business, or family. How to eliminate toxicity, reinforce standards, and lead people with clarity and accountability. Why baseball — and life — is a game of failure, and how resilience and self-belief can change everything. Powerful stories from CY's playing days, including injuries, comebacks, competition, and even a Major League brawl (This was funny!). Why your environment, your training partners, and your inner circle matter more than you think. CY's most emotional moment in baseball and the story of pitching the day after his father passed. Lessons on fatherhood, youth sports, and raising confident, grounded kids. How to create an environment where people outperform expectations and realize their dreams. WOW-o-WOW…Chris Young is the real deal—heart, humility, hunger, discipline, and leadership at the highest level. He's one of the rare ones, and I'm truly blessed to call him a friend. As you listen to this conversation, please take a moment to reflect on your own journey. Where can you elevate your leadership? Where can you strengthen your standards, sharpen your fundamentals, and get your mind right even more? This episode is pure jet fuel for the soul and a powerful reminder of what's possible when you lead with deep passion and purpose. If this episode moved you, inspired you, or fired you up, please share it with a teammate, a colleague, a fellow parent, or anyone who could use a dose of championship-level wisdom today.

Text your thoughts and questions!Are you constantly working faster, yet still feeling behind and burned out? Many of us get trapped in this unsustainable hustle culture cycle because we assume that productivity means doing more, faster. But what if the secret to achieving sustainable results and regaining clarity isn't to hit the gas, but to tap the brakes? This week, episode 291 of the Positively LivingⓇ Podcast is about how slowing down makes you more productive!In this episode of the Positively LivingⓇ Podcast, I'm sharing how strategically slowing down can dramatically increase your focus, reduce mistakes, and prevent overwhelm. I highlight two powerful forms of slowing down so you can work smarter, not harder. I cover the following topics:How slowing your pace can actually make you go faster, make fewer mistakes, and produce better quality output. Simple and effective ways to embrace the power of the pause in an otherwise nonstop world. How you can slow down by reducing demands using the generator principle.Why the two sides of slowing down work together to create productivity magic. Regardless of the path you decide, slowing down means choosing a sustainable, grounded, and deeply effective productivity approach that prioritizes your needs while still helping you get where you want to go.Thank you for listening!

This is a week of threshold tensions and clarifications as Mars activates the mutable waters of Pisces and the fiery vision of Sagittarius, while Neptune turns direct at the final degree of Pisces, completing a 14-year collective initiation into dissolving old paradigms.Meanwhile, Mercury completes its transformative Scorpio cycle and re-enters Sagittarius—shifting us from excavation to meaning-making. Expect friction, truth-revelations, and a growing sense that something long dissolving is now giving way to new direction.Mon Dec 8: Mars in Sagittarius square Saturn in PiscesMars strides toward new horizons, only to meet Saturn as Elder of Sacred Limits asking: “Is your fire aligned with your deeper responsibilities? Are you acting from vision—or from impulse?” Productive friction clarifies the difference between inspired action and escapist momentum.Wed Dec 10: Neptune turns direct at 29° PiscesThe Dreamer-Mystic pauses at the threshold of a whole era, whispering: “What illusions have fallen away? What soul-truth is emerging from the mist?” A thin-veil moment—intuition strengthens, old confusion clears, and long-dormant inspiration stirs awake.• Mercury in Scorpio opposes Uranus in TaurusThe Storyteller faces the Awakener for the third time since Oct 29, bringing closure to a revelation cycle. This is the final crack in the old narrative: the truth you've been circling now reveals itself plainly. Liberation from a stubborn mindset that has finally run its course.Thurs Dec 11: Mercury in Scorpio trines Neptune in PiscesThe Intuitive Communicator is blessed by the Mystic Waters of Neptune—insights soften, imagination becomes coherent, inner truth finds language. Clarity through compassion; insight through tenderness.• Mercury re-enters SagittariusSagittarius welcomes the Messenger home: “Now that you've unearthed the depths, what is the meaning you are ready to articulate?” A new storyline begins—one shaped by wisdom, perspective, and possibility.Sun Dec 14: Mars in Sagittarius square Neptune in PiscesThe Adventurer meets the Mystic Fog of Neptune—action dissolves into mystery, purpose is tested, motives are purified. A humbling pause that reorients you from fantasy to authentic vision.• Sun in Sagittarius trine Chiron in AriesThe Solar Truth-Bringer offers warm recognition to the Wounded Healer (Chiron)—your courage and honesty illuminate a healing path for yourself and others. A moment of self-recognition that strengthens inner authority.• Mars enters Capricorn (through Jan 23) After the wild terrain of Sagittarius, Mars becomes a Builder as it enters Capricorn: “I'm ready to commit. What structure will carry my fire forward?” Direction crystallizes—discipline and purpose now support your momentum.Reflections:Where is friction or confusion revealing the need for clearer alignment?What illusion, assumption, or outdated narrative is dissolving—and what truth is emerging in its place?What meaning or wisdom arises now that I've moved through a deep emotional or psychic layer?What commitment or structure wants to take shape to hold my emerging clarity?Podcast Poem: 5 AM in Pinewoods by Mary OliveSupport the showGo to Sheila's website for information for transformational resources: https://www.ontheedgesofchange.com/home-page This episode was co-created with generative AI, engaged as a soul-aligned ally in service of transformation.

Productive energy doesn't always mean feeling positive; uncomfortable emotions like pressure, fear, or frustration can fuel high performance when channeled constructively. Preparation is the “whole ticket” to unlocking productive energy and flow, enabling you to perform smoothly under pressure and lead by example in any environment. Sound Bites: “The only way to really manage our time is to better manage our energy.” “Pressure isn't the enemy—it's the invitation to show up, take responsibility, and lead.” “Productive thinking isn't always positive. Sometimes, things just simply suck—and that can still move us forward.” Connect & Discover Dr Haley: Instagram: @drhaleyperlus Linkedin: @dr-haley-perlus-33ab2219 YouTube: @drhaleyperlus Book: Personal Podium: How to Use Your Mind to Maximize Your Potential In Sport and Life

Jose and Dolo are TURNING UP for one of the wildest cards of the year as UFC 323 storms into Las Vegas. This episode is nothing but smoke, energy, and straight fight-week chaos as the guys break down every matchup that's about to blow the roof off T-Mobile Arena.We're talking:

Our entire philosophy at Personal Mastery Training is built on one radical idea: In order to achieve mastery, we cannot simply get through challenges. We must strategically seek to get something from them. We understand the seasons of nature perfectly. Spring is for growth. Summer is for harvest. Autumn is for beautiful decay and letting go. But then there is the fourth season: Winter. Winter shows up in our personal lives, and it often leads us to panic. It's not always cold outside, but it is freezing inside. It's the season of unexpected layoffs, financial downturns, health setbacks, profound loss, or a nagging creative block. It is that time when the lights dim, the external noise goes quiet, and we are forced into deep introspection. My Personal Winter I'm sharing this with you not from a place of theory, but from the trenches. 2025 has been a season of deep winters for me. Earlier this year, I lost my son to cancer. Recently, I lost a dear friend and co-host of the Alliance, Dr. Charlie Cartwright. I am in the deep winter. But this pain has become my motivation to share the philosophy of the seasons—wisdom I learned from the modern-day philosopher Jim Rohn—so that we can navigate these dark times together. The "Summer Mode" Trap The primary source of suffering during winter comes from the narratives we cling to. We are culturally conditioned to believe we should always be in "Summer Mode." Thanks to social media and FOMO (Fear Of Missing Out), we think we should always be growing, always achieving, and always producing a visible harvest. When winter hits, an unhelpful inner voice screams: "Why haven't I figured this out? Why am I not happy? I am failing because I have nothing to show." We try to manufacture a summer feeling. We fill our calendars and double down on external effort, even though our environment is screaming at us to stop. Winter is Not a Punishment; It's Preparation We have to accept the purpose of winter. It is not a punishment. It is a vital, non-negotiable phase of life. Think of a seed. It cannot grow until it is broken open in the dark, cold ground. The deep, transformative work of life happens in the dark. I love this wisdom: "We won't rise to the occasion when something happens; we will fall to the level of our preparation." My family and I are surviving this tragedy not because we are superhuman, but because previous winters prepared us. We are falling to our level of preparation. How to Navigate the Cold: Strategic Stillness If you are in a financial, mental, spiritual, or existential winter, how do you handle the stillness without falling into paralyzing stagnation? 1. Practice Essentialism Winter is the time to cut dead branches. In business, you consolidate resources. In life, you declutter. This season has forced me to become brutally non-negotiable about what I say "yes" to. Ask yourself: What foundational belief about myself is dying off so something stronger can take its place? 2. Turn Pain into Purpose Stagnation is avoidance. Productive stillness is intentionality. I could have gone "zero dark thirty" and hidden from the world after losing my son. Instead, we chose to turn pain into purpose. We raised $65,000 for a foundation in his name. We focused on helping others get healthy. The way I grieve is to be of service. 3. Set a Winter Intention Don't set a goal for an outcome (like "get a new job" or "be happy"). Set an intention for a skill. Example: "My intention is to learn how to sit with discomfort without seeking a destructive escape." The Power of Protective Habits In the summer, your habits are focused on output. In the winter, your habits must pivot to input and protection. Protect your time. Protect your energy. Prioritize rest. We have a toxic narrative that says, "I'm too busy to rest." You must replace that with: "Rest is my most productive activity right now." It is an act of proactive self-mastery. You are stocking your internal pantry for the coming spring. The Ultimate Gift of Winter If we leverage this season correctly, we gain two things we can never get from summer: Unshakable Resilience: Summer teaches you how to enjoy the harvest. Winter teaches you that you can survive when the field is barren. It teaches you that your worth is not tied to your productivity. Profound Self-Intimacy: In the quiet of winter, you finally hear your authentic voice. You stop worrying about who the world expects you to be and align with who you truly are. This Too Shall Pass It is always darkest before the dawn. If you are in the cold right now, know that the light will return. But don't just wait for it—utilize the dark. Let the pain change you. Let it be the incubator for your greatest future self. Don't just get through it. Get from it. To my son, and to Dr. Charlie Cartwright—one love. Peace, love, and a sprinkle of soul.

We're living in parallel realities with different "facts." Wikipedia founder Jimmy Wales breaks down how trust eroded — and how we might restore it.Full show notes and resources can be found here: jordanharbinger.com/1251What We Discuss with Jimmy Wales:Wikipedia succeeded where its predecessor failed because it prioritized making contribution enjoyable. Nobody truly works for free — people need intrinsic rewards like connecting with fellow enthusiasts, intellectual satisfaction, and the joy of building something meaningful together.The global crisis of trust stems from people living in parallel realities with different "facts." Productive discourse becomes impossible when opposing sides can't agree on basic data — like immigration numbers — before debating policy solutions."Assume good faith" isn't just a Wikipedia policy — it's a life-changing mindset. Most people making mistakes aren't malicious; they need guidance. Approaching others with initial trust creates positive cycles, whether parenting teenagers or managing remote teams.Trust isn't built through perfection — it's built through transparency, especially when you have something to hide. Organizations that acknowledge mistakes, explain their processes, and openly work to improve earn more lasting credibility than those claiming flawlessness.Want to make a meaningful impact? Just start. The next five years will pass regardless of what you do — so test your ideas early, embrace potential failure as learning, and remember that trying something that doesn't work still beats endlessly planning something you never attempt.And much more...And if you're still game to support us, please leave a review here — even one sentence helps!

Send us a textThe "first-year teaching blues" are real, but they don't have to be a career-ender. In this episode, Daniel explores the impact of the GREAT Grant (Georgia Residency for Educating Amazing Teachers), a program designed to turn career-changers into thriving educators through a paid residency model.We sit down with Jillian Degan, a former "problem child" student who swore she'd never teach, and Amelia Ellison, the veteran mentor who guided her. Together, they pull back the curtain on what a successful mentor-mentee relationship actually looks like—moving beyond "signing the paperwork" to building a partnership based on vulnerability, trust, and the freedom to fail.What You'll Learn in This EpisodeThe Non-Traditional Path: How both Jillian (Healthcare) and Amelia (Business) transitioned into education and how their outside perspectives shape their classrooms.The "Productive Struggle": Why Jillian had to learn to stop "hating group work" and allow her students to struggle together to find the right answers.Reverse Mentorship: How a veteran teacher learned to embrace new technology and creative "anchor charts" by watching her mentee take risks.Management vs. Relationships: Why rigid systems (like "the clipboard") often fail new teachers, and why emotional intelligence works better than calling parents every day.The "Vibe" Check: Why it is critical for a new teacher to speak up and request a different mentor if the personality fit isn't right.The Power of Constructive Feedback: How to give feedback that builds a new teacher up rather than just telling them "fix your classroom management" without explaining how.

Happy holidays. I'm pumped to share today's podcast with you during one of the most important, spiritual, and opportunity-rich seasons of the entire year. This is the season where reflection meets revelation. Where gratitude meets growth. And where faith meets fuel. Between Thanksgiving and New Year's, we are also given a sacred window to reflect, release, and realign with God and our many blessings. Listen, this season can be magical…but it can also be stressful, overwhelming, busy, and even emotionally heavy. And if we're not intentional, the holidays can drain us instead of fuel us. So today, I want to walk you through a simple, clear, faith-centered 5- week journey to get your heart right, your mind right, your spirit right… and position you for PURPOSE, PRESENCE, and POWER heading into a brand-new year. How does that sound? In this week's episode, I'm sharing 5 spiritual and personal growth goals that will help you deepen your faith, reduce your stress, elevate your energy, and walk into 2026 with more clarity, passion, & purpose. I hope that fires you up! Specifically, here is what I will be addressing in your "5-Week Spiritual Reset Program" (Ep. 455 of the IMPACT SHOW): 1. Daily "First 10" Spiritual Practice and how it can help ground you and give you even more gratitude on the daily… 2. Sabbath Rhythm Once a Week and how it lowers cortisol, strengthens faith, and restores your mental/emotional battery. 3. Move Your Body Daily with Purpose (Minimum: 30 Minutes a Day) and how this can help lower cortisol, decrease stress, and improve your daily energy. 4. Speak Life Daily (Words of Encouragement Challenge) and how this will strengthen relationships, build joy, and cultivate even more humility and service. 5. Create Your 2026 Vision with God. Spend time between now and New Year's in vision-creation and prayer and you will enter the New Year aligned, focused, and spiritually fueled. A few other things to think about and reflect upon as you answer some deep questions. Be honest. Be real. Go deep. First, ask yourself these 5-reflection questions: o What did God teach me this year? o What prayers were answered? o What trials did I overcome? o Where did I grow? o Where do I still need healing? Then ask yourself these 3-questions that can help mold you to who you are 'today' and who you will become 'tomorrow': o Who is God calling me to become? o What is God asking me to release? o What is God preparing me to build? Lastly, I want to remind you of something today: Life brings seasons of triumph and seasons of trial. The mountaintop moments remind us of God's abundance; the valleys remind us of His presence in our weakness. Remember, 'My faith has carried me through the highest mountains and the lowest valleys.' Just like Psalm 23:4 says: 'Even though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil, for You are with me.' There are Mountains. And there are Valleys. And God is present in both. KEEP GOING!! Grab your journal, grab your coffee, lace up your shoes if you're on a walk…and let's dive in. Buckle up, because this is going to be one of those episodes—the kind that blesses your spirit and stokes your soul as we go deep. Thanks for being YOU and I hope that you and yours have a very happy holiday season that's full of peace, joy, and love.

On today's podcast:1) US and Ukrainian negotiators said they had productive discussions about a framework for a peace deal, but there was no final breakthrough as President Trump continues to push for a truce with Russia. “There’s more work to be done,” Secretary of State Marco Rubio told reporters in Florida after meeting for at least four hours with Ukrainian officials led by National Security and Defense Council Secretary Rustem Umerov. “This is delicate. It’s complicated.” The meeting, which took place in Hallandale Beach, Florida, with US special envoy Steve Witkoff and Trump’s son-in-law Jared Kushner also in attendance, was likely the last chance for Ukraine’s negotiators to sway Witkoff before he leads a US delegation for talks in Russia this week. The two sides discussed potential parameters for a ceasefire as they pored over a 19-point proposal that emerged in Geneva last week — as well as the status of the Russian-occupied Zaporizhzhia nuclear power plant, the biggest in Europe, according to people familiar with the discussions. 2) US authorities believe the man suspected of fatally shooting a National Guard member and seriously wounding another in Washington, DC, was radicalized while in the US, Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem said. Asked on NBC’s Meet the Press about the suspect’s motive, Noem said investigators are still collecting information and talking to his contacts. Federal authorities have identified the suspect as Rahmanullah Lakanwal, 29, an Afghan national who worked with US forces and the CIA in Afghanistan before arriving in the US in 2021. He was subdued and taken into custody shortly after the shooting on a street a few blocks from the White House on Wednesday.3) President Trump said Sunday he has decided on his pick for the next Federal Reserve chair after making clear he expects his nominee to deliver interest-rate cuts. Trump has frequently excoriated current Fed chief Jerome Powell for failing to lower rates swiftly and signaled he wants a chair who will more forcefully pursue cuts. People familiar with the matter told Bloomberg News last week that White House National Economic Council Director Kevin Hassett, Trump’s chief economic adviser, is seen as the likely choice to succeed Powell.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio says it's about securing Ukraine's future while also stressing Russia's role in any peace agreement.

US and Ukraine negotiations on Sunday focused on where the de facto border with Russia would be drawn under a peace deal, while the five-hour meeting was said to be difficult and intense, but productive, according to two Ukrainian officials cited by Axios.European and US equity futures are broadly on the backfoot, following on from a cautious mood in APAC trade.DXY is pressured by the stronger JPY following jawboning from Japanese officials and after BoJ Governor Ueda hinted at a December rate hike.Bonds were initially pressured following on from JGB downside, and then took a leg lower alongside Gilt underperformance soon after the European cash open.Crude futures benefit after OPEC+ holds output steady through Q1'26 and in reaction to further Ukrainian strikes in Russian oil refineries; 3M LME Copper surges to fresh ATHs above USD 11.2k/t, but has since scaled back given the risk tone and downbeat Chinese PMI figures.Looking ahead, highlights include US Manufacturing PMI Final (Nov), US ISM Manufacturing PMI (Nov), Saudi-Russia Business Forum, EU Supply.

Summary In this episode, Andy talks with John Krewson, co-author of Pitch, Sketch, Launch: A Sketch Comedy Approach to Product Development. John's journey spans software development, acting, and even a stint with Saturday Night Live. He now leads Sketch Development, where he helps teams build products people actually want, faster and with more joy. In this conversation, John explains why project teams should behave more like creative troupes than traditional org charts. You'll hear how laughter can be a feedback loop, why messy first drafts matter, and how simple tools like sticky notes, Elmo cards, and Lean Coffee can radically improve your team's collaboration. We also explore how sketch comedy's "test before polish" approach can transform how we ship ideas, and what that looks like on real-world teams. From unblocking meetings to unleashing creativity, this episode is packed with practical tools and paradigm shifts. If you're looking to bring more energy, experimentation, and feedback into your team's workflow, this episode is for you! Sound Bites "The best ideas often start as bad ones. The magic is in iteration." "You're not building a product. You're testing a hypothesis in the real world." "Sketch comedy taught me this: if the audience isn't laughing, it doesn't work. Product teams need that same feedback mindset." "You can't argue with the emotion of a dead silent audience when you think you've got gold." "We often equate busy with productive. But they're not the same thing." "A meeting isn't productive just because everyone showed up. Did it move ideas forward?" "Troupes thrive on trust and feedback. Traditional teams often operate on fear and approval." "I was a mediocre software developer, which made me well-suited for management." "You are sucking the fun out of this. We are building software here. We get to play on computers. Let's make this fun." "There's this ruthless search for feedback that we learn how not to take things personally." "Nowhere in that iron triangle does anybody talk about whether or not the customer said, 'I needed that thing in the first place.'" "We're not just cross-functional. We're cross-committed. That's what makes a team operate like a troupe." "If you're building something new, you need a mechanism to decide if it's valuable. And if it isn't, you toss it." "The law of averages will tell you: 80% of the ideas need to be tossed."

Susan Bernauer, author of Gardener's Journal: Journey into the World of Gardening, shares how anyone can begin growing plants, whether on a small balcony or in a large backyard. She explains that gardening is less about expertise and more about curiosity, patience, and observation. Her book offers practical guidance for beginners, covering seed starting, soil care, composting, and how to record plant notes to remember what works year after year. She emphasizes that gardening can be both educational and therapeutic, helping people reconnect with nature and relieve stress.In this episode of Marketer of the Day, Susan talks about how gardening evolved from a childhood pastime into a lifelong passion focused on shade gardens and succulents. She explains how to choose plants that fit your space and lifestyle, avoid common mistakes, and turn your gardening into a creative project instead of a chore. Her spiral-bound version of the Gardener's Journal even allows you to cut out pages and create a custom notebook to track your plants, making it a hands-on guide for personal growth through gardening. Quotes: “If you're caring for a plant, you're already a gardener. It's about learning and trying, not perfection.” “Gardening is a journey. Even advanced gardeners don't know everything. You learn through trial and error.” “When life gets stressful, working in the garden helps you relax and reconnect with yourself.” “Write down what works for you. Next year, you'll be ahead instead of starting over.” Resources: Connect with Susan Bernauer on Facebook Get "Gardener's Journal: Journey into the World of Gardening" Amazon

In this conversation, you'll discover:Why your achievement addiction is actually a fear response in disguiseHow play unlocks the creative parts of yourself productivity destroysThe real reason you can't rest (and how to finally stop running) When was the last time you did something just because it was fun?Not because it would advance your career. Not because it would make you a better parent or partner. Not because it would optimize your health or expand your network. Just because it brought you joy.If you're sitting there drawing a blank, you're not alone. Most of us have turned our entire lives into one giant to-do list. We've optimized the fun right out of existence.I realized this recently when I noticed that every single thing on my calendar served a purpose. Work meetings. Kid activities. Workouts. Networking events. Even my "fun" plans were really just relationship maintenance or personal development in disguise. There was literally nothing on there that was pure play. Nothing that existed just because it lit me up inside.We've been sold this idea that adulthood means being serious. Responsible. Productive. But somewhere along the way, we confused being an adult with being joyless. In Vedic philosophy, there's this concept of lila. Divine play. The idea that creation itself is an act of joyful expression, not serious business. That the universe is literally playing itself into existence. And yet here we are, treating our one precious life like a performance review.Links from the episode:Show Notes: mindlove.com/427Join the Mind Love CollectiveSign up for The Morning Mind Love for short daily notes to wake up inspiredSupport Mind Love SponsorsSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

What if the thing you're missing isn't more discipline — it's more play?Not structured play.Not “fun time” on your calendar.Not something productive or Pinterest-worthy.Real play.Pointless, joyful, silly, inefficient play.In this episode, we unpack:✔️ Why a lack of play quietly fuels anxiety, irritability, and burnout✔️ The neuroscience of how play expands creativity, resilience, and emotional regulation✔️ How play restores executive function — the part of your brain responsible for decision-making and focus✔️ Simple ways to bring play back into your life (even if you feel disconnected from it)This isn't about adding another task to your day.It's about remembering what your nervous system already knows:Play is medicine.Play is regulation.Play brings you back to yourself.If you've been efficient, responsible, and exhausted, this episode will feel like an exhale — and an invitation to feel alive again.- Join the Burnout Recovery Blueprint Waitlist!
