Have you ever considered that the most profound growth happens in the stillness of life's winters? Katherine May's concept of "Wintering" challenges us to view these quiet times not as setbacks but as necessary periods for renewal and introspection. It's about recognizing that slowing down and stepping back can rejuvenate our spirits. By appreciating these quiet seasons, we allow space for personal growth and the reinforcement of our core values. Reflecting on these ideas made me realize how often I've resisted slowing down, seeing it as counterproductive. Yet, in embracing rest and retreat, we can find contentment in being enough, even amid apparent inertia. These quiet times are invitations to connect deeply, both with ourselves and with those around us, paving the way for transformative change and a renewed sense of purpose.

In a world obsessed with speed, optimization, certainty, and AI-driven answers, this episode of Gratitude Through Hard Times offers a necessary pause. Chris Schembra sits down with Eric Stine, CEO of Sitecore, for a deeply human conversation about leadership, belonging, gratitude, and the courage to say yes before you feel ready. This is not a tactical episode about growth metrics or technology stacks—it's an exploration of what it means to lead, live, and connect in a time when instinct is being outsourced and humanity is at risk of being optimized away.Eric reflects on a 25-year career across some of the world's most influential enterprise technology companies, but reframes success through a different lens. Rather than crediting restraint or perfection, he points to saying yes as the defining strategy of his life, yes to unfamiliar roles, yes to reinvention, yes to creativity, fatherhood, philanthropy, and Broadway. Along the way, he opens up about imposter syndrome, those quiet moments of doubt that surface even at the highest levels of leadership, and why authenticity—not certainty—is what ultimately creates trust and psychological safety for teams.The conversation reaches back to Eric's eighth-grade years, when he felt like an outsider searching for his people. Theater became the place where he learned that difference wasn't something to hide, but something to bring forward, a lesson that continues to shape how he builds culture today. That theme of belonging becomes especially resonant in today's age of fragmentation and loneliness, where many people feel disconnected not because they lack opportunity, but because they lack spaces where they can show up fully as themselves.Midway through the episode, Eric answers the signature gratitude question, offering heartfelt thanks to his father, Mark, whose belief in living authentically influenced everything from Eric's leadership philosophy to a Tony Award win on Father's Day. The moment grounds the conversation in gratitude, not as sentiment, but as a force that shapes identity, values, and legacy across generations.This episode is especially important now because it confronts a growing cultural tension: while AI can deliver answers at unprecedented speed, it cannot deliver wisdom, belonging, or meaning. Eric draws a clear distinction between systems of record and systems of engagement, arguing that the future belongs to leaders and organizations that pair data with instinct, scale with empathy, and efficiency with humanity. In an era where people are burning out not just from work, but from hiding who they are, this conversation offers a different model, one rooted in community, peer-driven recognition, and shared accountability rather than control.Ultimately, The Power of Saying Yes is a reminder that culture cannot be engineered from the top down and growth cannot be achieved through optimization alone. Culture comes from community. Belonging comes from permission. And the most meaningful paths in life are rarely the safest ones. This episode invites listeners to slow down, embrace impermanence, and choose the more interesting path, not because it's easy, but because it's human.10 Key TakeawaysSaying yes creates momentum.Progress, growth, and meaning often come from leaning in before you feel ready—not from waiting for certainty. Authenticity is a leadership advantage, not a liability.When leaders model vulnerability, they unlock psychological safety and better performance across teams. Imposter syndrome doesn't disappear—it becomes a compass.Doubt is often a signal that you're stretching into something meaningful. Finding “your people” changes everything.Belonging fuels confidence, creativity, and resilience—whether in theater, business, or family. Gratitude is a strategic tool, not a soft one.Recognizing people for their impact on others builds trust, loyalty, and culture at scale. Culture cannot be built top-down.Leaders can only create the conditions; community does the building. AI needs humans in the loop.Data delivers insight, but instinct and empathy deliver relevance. Impermanence creates meaning.Moments matter more when we know they won't last—whether on stage, at work, or around the dinner table. Accountability is empowering when framed as ownership.We don't work in isolation—we work in ecosystems where shared responsibility drives excellence. The best life is an AND life, not an OR life.Passion and profit. Speed and care. Technology and humanity. Both can be true.Eric Stine BioEric Stine is the Chief Executive Officer of Sitecore, driving the company's vision and strategy to unlock business value for clients by empowering them to create compelling digital experiences.

There is a quiet frustration a lot of entrepreneurs are carrying right now. The work is happening. Effort is being put in. Progress is not obvious yet. So the instinct becomes to scrap everything and start again. New idea. New offer. New strategy. New direction. In this solo episode of the Black to Business podcast, we are slowing that impulse down and telling the truth about what is really happening when you feel the need to start over. After speaking with more than 200 Black entrepreneurs on this podcast, one pattern shows up again and again. The founders who eventually find their footing are not constantly resetting. They stay long enough to learn. They adjust with intention instead of reacting out of pressure. This conversation is about resourcefulness, self-trust, and building forward instead of burning everything down when things feel uncomfortable. Inside this episode, we talk honestly about why starting over feels productive, how outside noise and urgency can cloud decision-making, and how to tell the difference between a thoughtful pivot and panicking too soon. This is not about forcing something that is clearly not working. This is about recognizing when you already have more than enough to move forward and learning how to work with it. DURING THIS EPISODE YOU'LL LEARN: Why starting over often feels like progress even when it keeps you stuck The real difference between pivoting with intention and reacting out of pressure How constant resets prevent you from gathering the information you actually need What it looks like to leverage your existing work, relationships, and systems Why trusting yourself is a business skill, not just a mindset How to strengthen what you already have instead of abandoning it too soon If you have been feeling the urge to scrap everything because things are moving slower than expected, this episode will help you pause, reassess, and move forward with more confidence. You do not need to start over to grow. Sometimes you need to stay. Thank you so much for listening!

In this episode, Jeremy offers an inspired monologue on recent discussions concerning whether one should be "against the machine," that is, against progress. "We can't just be against the worldview of progress," Jeremy wrote on a recent Mutations post. Rather, we ought to "stand firmly from another position, articulate another worldview."Technology shouldn't be ceded to the technologist, anymore than spirituality should be ceded to the reactionary right.What is needed is to respond to technoculture from a position of depth. The machine of progress needs to be met and exceeded with another, weirder temporality.It is precisely through embracing this weirder time that techno-culture has a chance to be subverted, and technology's more radical and emancipatory aspects might be potentiated.***Mutations is pleased to announce the launch of our first 2026 course offering: "Seeing Through the World: Jean Gebser and Integral Consciousness" starts on January 28th and runs for five consecutive weeks. We will be taking an in-depth look at many of themes explored in this episode. Scholarships are available! We hope to see you in class.Support Mutations on SubstackMutations on Patreon

In this special Q&A leadership session, Dwayne Kerrigan brings forward one of his most personal and powerful teachings yet—an unfiltered look at problem-solving, decision-making, emotional mastery, strategic planning, and the rituals that shape high-performance leaders.Responding to 51 listener questions, Dwayne breaks down the “three pillars of progress,” the psychological layers of every problem, why decision-making is a muscle, and how fear, uncertainty, and overwhelm quietly sabotage performance.He shares the exact rituals he has used for decades—from weekly solitude planning to identity-based scheduling—and the transformative practice he credits with changing his life: think time.This episode is a masterclass in intentional living and high-performance leadership, blending mindset, structure, neuroscience, and real-world business wisdom. If you're navigating fast-moving environments, leading teams, or trying to build a more purposeful life, this conversation gives you a proven roadmap forward.Key Takeaways:Decision-making is a muscle—if you don't practice small decisions with process and ritual, big decisions will always overwhelm you.Your focus determines your emotional life—the meaning you attach to events shapes long-term joy or suffering.Rituals create identity and outcomes—weekly solitude planning, think time, and identity-based scheduling produce clarity and momentum.Strategic thinking requires cadence—yearly visioning, quarterly reviews, weekly planning, and daily recalibration.AI will disrupt faster than expected—leaders must systemize processes now to survive the shift.Self-love, vulnerability, and forgiveness are essential ingredients for emotional mastery and better decision-making.Quotes:“Decision making is a muscle .. and it's a skill set. And often times where we struggle is this area of making the tough and difficult decisions.”“What you ritualized in practice in private is rewarded in public.”“The business side of things should be a game. I mean, it should be fun most of the time.”"What is going to make you a happier and more joyful person, is attaching a different meaning to the events that happen in your life.”Resources Mentioned:Tony Robbins – “Three Pillars of Progress,” Date With Destiny program, life-planning philosophyStephen Covey – prioritization framework (A/B/C method)Waking Up App (Sam Harris) – meditation and mindfulnessChatGPT (Teams) – referenced as part of Dwayne's business infrastructureSOPs (Standard Operating Procedures) – foundational to AI-based workflow agentsIdentity-based scheduling – Dwayne's personal system (Chairman, Husband, Father, Student, etc.)Audio Timestamps:00:00 – How meaning, not outcomes, determines happiness and fulfillment.01:00 – Welcome, context for the live Q&A format, and session overview.02:00 – Framing the biggest listener questions around decisions, problems, and leadership.03:00 – The three pillars of progress and why focusing on problems makes them grow.05:00 – The three levels of a problem: external, internal, and psychological.07:00 – Why fear, uncertainty, and overwhelm stop people from making decisions.09:00 – Decision-making as a muscle and the importance of rituals for small decisions.12:00 – Managing overwhelm through physiology, breathing, and better questions.16:00 – Focus, meaning, and how emotional patterns shape leadership behavior.23:00 – Strategic thinking rituals: yearly visioning, quarterly...
The Swiss-born, London-based curator, art historian, and Serpentine Galleries artistic director Hans Ulrich Obrist moves through his life and work with a deep internal sense of urgency. Among the most prolific and everywhere-all-at-once people in the world of art—whose peripatetic path has taken him from a sheltered upbringing in a small Swiss village to his current post in London at the Serpentine—Obrist has been curating shows for more than three decades. During this time, he has recorded conversations with thousands of artists, architects, and others shaping culture and society. He's also the author of dozens of books, most recently Life in Progress, released in the U.K. this fall, with the U.S. edition coming out next spring.On this episode, Obrist reflects on 25 years of the Serpentine Pavilion, which has become a defining annual moment in culture globally and a springboard for many of today's leading voices in architecture, including Lina Ghotmeh (the guest on Ep. 129 of Time Sensitive) and Frida Escobedo, and his firm belief that we all need to embrace more promenadology—the science of a stroll—in our lives.Special thanks to our Season 12 presenting sponsor, Van Cleef & Arpels.Show notes:[00:47] Hans Ulrich Obrist[5:18] Brutally Early Club[7:40] Frank Gehry[8:20 ] Bettina Korek[8:28] Luma Arles[10:21] Pierre Boulez[13:10] Etel Adnan[19:37] Giorgio Vasari[21:22] Ludwig Binswanger[27:20] “Life in Progress”[37:48] Peter Fischli & David Weiss[34:00] Kasper König[39:09] Maria Lassnig[39:35] Serpentine Galleries[43:24] Musée d'Art Moderne de Paris[48:11] Serpentine Pavilion[51:15] Frida Escobedo[51:49] Lina Ghotmeh[56:11] The FLAG Art Foundation[56:37] Play Pavilion[56:58] Serpentine General Ecology[58:00] Serpentine Arts Technologies[1:02:08] “Peter Doig: House of Music”[1:04:11] “Danielle Brathwaite-Shirley: The Delusion”[1:05:00] Édouard Glissant[1:05:47] Umberto Eco[1:12:28] Lucius Burckhardt[1:12:28] Cedric Price[1:11:56] Robert Walser
In this episode of Healthy Mind, Healthy Life, Avik Chakraborty sits down with Bud Kraus, creator of the podcast Seriously Bud, for a real conversation about living with chronic depression, seasonal affective disorder and suicidal ideation. Bud shares what “silent suffering” looked like for him, why so many people mask pain with humor and what actually helped him move one day at a time. They talk about practical coping tools, getting support without shame, the role of counseling and medication and how purpose and family can shift your relationship with mental health over time. If you're navigating depression, anxiety, suicidal thoughts or emotional burnout, this episode focuses on grounded support, honest language and why asking for help is a strength at any age. About the Guest: Bud Kraus is a long-time educator and creator in the WordPress community and the host of Seriously Bud, a human-story podcast exploring life journeys, resilience and reinvention. He speaks openly about his experience with depression and suicidal ideation and how support systems, creativity and meaning helped him move forward. Key Takeaways: Depression can be chronic and still invisible. Bud describes how people often use a “happy face” while privately struggling with mental health. Seasonal shifts can amplify symptoms. He names winter and shorter days as a trigger pattern tied to seasonal affective disorder. Normalize asking direct questions. A pivotal moment came when someone finally asked Bud if he had suicidal thoughts, helping him realize those thoughts aren't “normal” for most people. Progress is usually a small pivot, not a miracle moment. Bud points to finding a trusted professional and structured support as a turning point. Coping can be practical and personal. For Bud, playing guitar created short-term relief and mental transport when the day felt unmanageable. Medication and therapy can be part of a healthy toolkit. He frames both as support options, not moral judgments. Purpose can return later than you expect. Bud ties healing to relationships, family and future joy that felt impossible during darker seasons.

Top Stories for December 16th Publish Date: December 16th PRE-ROLL: Villa Rica Wonderland Train From the BG AD Group Studio Welcome to the Gwinnett Daily Post Podcast. Today is Tuesday, December 16th and Happy Birthday to Yosemite Sam I’m Peyton Spurlock and here are your top stories presented by KIA Mall of Georgia. Gwinnett leaders update lawmakers on voting site challenges, public safety efforts Brookwood High selected to participate in the GaDOE Gifted in Action series Gwinnett Chamber announces 2025 Business Excellence Award winners Plus, Shane Delancey the Director of the Christmas Tradition at the Strand Theatre All of this and more is coming up on the Gwinnett Daily Post podcast, and if you are looking for community news, we encourage you to listen daily and subscribe! Break 1: Kia Mall of Georgia - Sugar Hill Ice Skating Rink STORY 1: Gwinnett leaders update lawmakers on voting site challenges, public safety efforts Gwinnett County is cutting polling locations—down from 156 to 144—and the reason? Insurance headaches. Churches and private organizations, once reliable voting sites, are pulling out, according to Elections Supervisor Zach Manifold. Manifold shared the news during a meeting with Gwinnett’s state lawmakers, where elections and public safety took center stage. Chairwoman Nicole Love Hendrickson emphasized collaboration: “When local and state leaders work together, we serve our residents better.” On the safety side, Police Chief J.D. McClure highlighted staffing gains and a futuristic twist—drones as “first eyes” on crime scenes. Progress, but challenges remain. STORY 2: Brookwood High selected to participate in the GaDOE Gifted in Action series Brookwood High just got a big nod from the Georgia Department of Education—it’s been featured in the GaDOE Gifted in Action series, a webinar collection for educators working with gifted and talented students. Eric Rovie’s AP Literature and Language classes were in the spotlight, with the GaDOE team recording his students in action. Rovie’s approach? Open discussions, tough questions, and a classroom built on trust. Gifted education isn’t just about acceleration, says Dr. Keena Ryals-Jenkins of GCPS—it’s about sparking curiosity and pushing boundaries. STORY 3: Gwinnett Chamber announces 2025 Business Excellence Award winners The Gwinnett Chamber’s Business Excellence Awards lit up the John Maxwell Leadership Center last week, celebrating the movers, shakers, and innovators shaping Gwinnett’s business scene. Nick Masino, Chamber President & CEO, kicked things off, followed by keynote speaker Darryll Stinson—a TEDx speaker and leadership guru—who delivered a heartfelt, no-fluff message about trust, growth, and greatness. “It’s about elevating results,” he said, leaving the room buzzing. Masino summed it up: “When our businesses thrive, so does our region.” Winners spanned 10 categories, from Spectrum Autism Support Group (Community Contributor) to iS3 Tech Services’ Adam Hammock (Founder Award). A night of well-earned applause. We have opportunities for sponsors to get great engagement on these shows. Call 770.874.3200 for more info. We’ll be right back Break 2: Ingles Markets - DTL HOLIDAY STORY 4: Gwinnett road closures Dec. 13-19 Heads up, Gwinnett drivers—here’s what’s happening on the roads this week (Dec. 13–19). Expect closures, detours, and delays, all courtesy of construction, utility work, and improvements. Big ones to note: **Ballpark Lane** is closed through April 2026. Detours are in place, but, yeah, plan extra time. Other spots with intermittent lane closures include **Beaver Ruin Road**, **Sugarloaf Parkway**, and **Rockbridge Road**—plus about 30 more. For details or detour routes, contact the Gwinnett DOT. STORY 5: ART BEAT: Players Guild at Sugar Hill to stage 'The Gentleman's Guide to Love and Murder' Looking for a darkly funny way to kick off the new year? *The Gentleman’s Guide to Love and Murder* hits Sugar Hill’s Eagle Theatre stage Feb. 6–15, promising six performances of murder, mayhem, and music. The story? Monty Navarro, a broke clerk, discovers he’s ninth in line to inherit a fancy title and fortune. His solution? Start “removing” the D’Ysquith family members ahead of him. It’s twisted, hilarious, and based on the 1907 novel *Israel Rank*. JD Touchton stars as Monty, marking his first musical role in four years. Tickets? Boxoffice@pgatsh.com. Now, here is Shane Delancey the Director of the Christmas Tradition at the Strand Theatre - Shane Delancey - Break 3: THE STRAND HOLIDAY STORY 6: Mill Creek Grad Holden Cammarata Runs 100-Mile Day for Williams Syndrome Holden Cammarata had a wild dream—run 100 miles in a single day. Not a marathon, not two, but *four*. The 2025 Mill Creek grad and Georgia Tech freshman had always pushed himself, running cross country in high school and now with Georgia Tech’s club team. But this? This was next level. “It’s a big jump,” he admitted. “With my foot surgery coming up, I figured this might be my last shot.” But Holden didn’t just run for himself. He ran for Molly Kate Cloer, the little sister of his high school teammate Tyler, who has Williams Syndrome. Inspired by their family, he turned his grueling goal into a fundraiser, raising over $8,000 for the cause. The run itself? Brutal. By mile 60, his injured foot was screaming. By mile 80, the park closed, forcing him to finish in a church parking lot. Every step hurt. But his parents, old teammates, and even strangers showed up to cheer him on, some running alongside him. After 25 hours, 33 minutes, and 32 seconds, Holden crossed the finish line—exhausted, in pain, but surrounded by love. STORY 7: Northside Hospital Gwinnett named one of nation's best for maternity care Northside Hospital Gwinnett just got some big news—it’s officially one of the best places in the country to have a baby, according to *U.S. News & World Report*. The hospital earned a “High Performing” rating for maternity care, putting it in the top 10% nationwide for uncomplicated pregnancies. Pretty impressive, right? Last year alone, they delivered 4,245 babies. Northside Gwinnett also scored high marks in 15 other areas, from heart surgery to stroke care. When you’re here, you’re family.

Chelsea are through to the Carabao Cup Semi Final after a 3-1 win over Cardiff City, but it wasn't straightforward. Manny and Simon review a poor first half from a heavily rotated side, before Enzo Maresca's substitutions turned the game around and ultimately won it for the Blues.The hosts dive into a growing concern — Chelsea's backup players simply aren't good enough right now, leaving Maresca in an almost impossible situation when rotation is required. They also revisit Maresca's post-Everton press conference, where his comments appeared to be aimed directly at the club hierarchy, raising bigger questions about squad planning and support.Finally, attention turns to a huge Premier League test away at Newcastle on Saturday. Can Chelsea take this momentum into one of the toughest away grounds in the league?

Send us a textGrab a warm beverage and let's get real about "goal setting". This episode isn't about becoming a brand-new person overnight.It's about doing the **next right thing**—even when you're tired, unmotivated, or feel behind.Because time is going to pass anyway.And if we reach the end of 2026 still carrying the same excuses, the same stuck places, and the same patterns… that hurts more than starting imperfectly today.In this episode, we're talking about **discipline without shame**, **progress over perfection**, and the small daily choices that quietly change everything. From morning sunlight and real food, to guarding your thoughts, moving your body, opening your Bible, and learning how to follow through with what you say—you'll hear practical habits that regulate your nervous system, strengthen your mind, and anchor your life in wisdom.This is for the person who feels unmotivated but willing.For the one waiting to “feel ready.”For anyone who needs the reminder that **no one is coming to save you—but God has already given you what you need to take the next step**.You don't need a full plan.You don't need perfect consistency.You just need to start.Do something.Do it unmotivated.Do the next right thing.We end this episode anchored in Scripture—reminding ourselves that diligence, faithfulness in the small things, and steady obedience are never wasted.Progress over perfection. Always.
Mastering Life's Adventures: Being Your Best Self Through Soul Evolution!
In this deeply reflective holiday episode, Dr. Judith explores a forgotten truth: there is a stillness inside you more constant than storms, more faithful than circumstances, and more luminous than fear. Through stories, soul-dialogue, and practical spiritual tools, she guides you into what it means to “Become Your Own Safe Space”—a place where identity isn't built on outcomes, approval, or perfection, but on the indestructible depth of the soul. Whether you're navigating the emotional complexity of the holidays, healing from loss, or simply longing for inner steadiness, this episode reminds you that the quiet flame within—the I AM Presence, the Christ-light, the eternal spark—never fades. Dr. Judith weaves narrative stories, analogies of winter storms, biblical anchors, and spiritual psychology to help you remember who you really are beneath fear, doubt, and self-deception. You'll learn how to root yourself in your inner wholeness, how to reconnect to presence through simple but transformative practices, and how to carry your soul's peace into family gatherings, solitude, or seasonal overwhelm. This is a powerful December teaching on moving from anxiety to anchoredness, from external seeking to internal knowing, and from emotional storms to spiritual stillness.TIMESTAMPS 00:00 – The Dawn Before Dawn: What the soul feels like 02:30 – Introducing the key: Becoming Your Own Safe Space 05:00 – Where real safety comes from (and why we forget it) 09:00 – Story: The winter storm and the inner electricity that never goes out 14:30 – The false identities we cling to (and how the personality misleads us) 18:00 – The ocean analogy: storm on the surface, stillness in the depth 21:00 – Story of Michael and the cracked church door 27:00 – Why the soul rushes in when we stop running 30:00 – The meaning of the “call” on the spiritual path 33:00 – What “being your own safe space” really means 37:00 – How to hear the still small voice when life feels loud 40:00 – Spiritual exercises to make this stick (morning practice, breath, gratitude) 44:00 – The power of “I AM”: aligning with your true identity 48:00 – Night practice: recognizing the soul in motion 50:00 – Living the safe space: becoming a quiet lighthouse

Bitwise's Matt Hougan and Ryan Rasmussen return with 10 big predictions for 2026. From the case for $1M BTC (and why the classic four-year cycle may be dead) to a world where ETFs soak up more than 100% of new BTC/ETH/SOL supply. We get into Bitcoin volatility vs. mega-cap tech, crypto equities vs. tech equities, and why Polymarket could smash past its 2024 election-era highs. Plus: stablecoins as an “escape valve” that emerging economies may blame for currency stress, on-chain also known as “ETFs 2.0,” and how the Clarity Act could be the starter's gun for ETH and SOL to run. ------

If you keep telling yourself you'll start tomorrow, this episode is your wake-up call. Progress only happens when today counts. Show Notes — Tomorrow Never Comes In this episode of Shark Theory, Baylor reflects on a passage from his book Wintality and the hard lesson it taught him about postponing what matters most. Through a personal story about love, ambition, and missed moments, he unpacks the danger of living in "one day" thinking. Baylor challenges the mindset of being a "just dreamer" someone who talks about what they're going to do but never takes the first step. He explains how fear, insecurity, and imaginary prerequisites often keep people waiting for a future version of themselves that never arrives. This episode is a reminder that big dreams are built through small actions, and that waiting for perfect conditions is often just disguised procrastination. Tomorrow isn't promised. Progress only happens when you move today. What You'll Learn • Why "one day" thinking keeps you stuck • The difference between dreamers and doers • How fear and insecurity delay action • Why small steps matter more than big plans • How daily action compounds over time • How to tell if you truly want something Featured Quote "Tomorrow never comes. Only today does."
In this episode, I break down why your progress towards your goals and desires can feel slow at the end of the year—even when you've been trying, growing, and taking the necessary steps.I explore the two very different conversations women tend to have with themselves when the things they expected or wanted to happen have not taken place yet.One is the honest, data-driven look at what may have been missing—clarity, belief, direction, or support. The other is a more grounded, self-led perspective that asks a deeper question: Who am I becoming in the process of wanting this?You'll hear why stalled progress isn't usually a motivation problem—and why giving up often comes from misunderstanding what real change actually requires. I share how I personally continue toward my own goals using the Well Made Woman process, and why I see it not as a finish-line mentality, but as a way of life.This episode is for the woman who doesn't want to abandon what she wants—but also doesn't want to relate to her goals through pressure, shame, or blaming others.If you've been wondering whether you missed something… or whether you're simply still in the middle of becoming—this conversation will help you see your progress more clearly and decide how you want to move forward.And if you'd like to join us inside Your Well Made Woman Year 2026, here's the link:https://drchavonne.com/wmwy2026/And to join the full Well Made Woman Program, go here: https://drchavonne.com/wmw/
Christin Marvin is a hospitality lifer who's opened 13 restaurants, run high-performing teams from the Broadmoor to booming Denver concepts, and survived both burnout and a failed ownership venture. Today she's an author and host of the Restaurant Leadership Podcast, helping operators master openings, ownership, and operator optimization. Christin and Susan talk about leadership, systems, and sustainable growth. What You'll Learn About: Why "tour guide" servers beat order-takers every time and how that shapes guest loyalty What 13 restaurant openings will teach you about systems, creativity, and controlled chaos How a failed French concept exposed dangerous blind spots around ego, pricing, and ignoring guest feedback The difference between promoting loyal people and intentionally building the leadership team your business actually needs What Christin's "Independent Restaurant Framework" is and how it helps owner-operators scale without burning out A simple, scrappy way to build a training program even if you feel like you have zero time and zero HR department The tiny 15-minute weekly habit that improves retention, surfaces problems early, and makes your team feel genuinely seen What owners get wrong about "not being able to find good people" and how to actually develop the ones you already have Why in-person dining experiences are about to matter more than ever in a tech-obsessed, convenience-driven world *** Our Top Three Takeaways 1. Sustainable restaurant growth requires systems—not loyalty alone. Christin stresses that independent operators often scale based on emotion and loyalty, but true success comes from intentionality: hiring for the right roles, building systems, developing people, and removing ego from decision-making. Loyalty without structure is expensive and risky; systems create stability and scalability. 2. Owners who succeed are the ones willing to ask for help and confront what's not working. She sees a clear divide in the industry: burned-out long-timers vs. newer operators who admit gaps, seek guidance, and make data-driven decisions. Progress begins when owners get honest about their shortcomings and stop trying to be experts in everything. 3. Training and people development are non-negotiable for retention and guest experience. Post-pandemic staffing requires intentional training—even simple, imperfect programs created by lead staff. Christin recommends weekly 15-minute one-on-ones as a powerful retention tool and argues that leaders must slow down, listen, and invest in people if they want to keep talent and deliver great hospitality.

The mix of travel, heavier meals and unpredictable schedules can make your body feel different fast, but those shifts are not the setback your mind tells you they are.In this episode we talk about how your strength responds during chaotic seasons, why momentum matters more than perfect structure and how small anchors like movement snacks, protein and hydration keep you connected to yourself when everything else feels messy.We also break down the body image triggers that tend to show up this time of year. Lighting, angles, outfits and family comments can activate old beliefs quickly, and learning how to pause and reframe those moments helps you stay grounded instead of spiraling.If you want a clearer way to move through holiday chaos with confidence, calm and a lot less fear of starting over, this conversation will meet you right where you are and give you tools you can use immediately.

In this episode of the Know Your Sh*t podcast, Josh Cadillac sits down with Jeff for a candid conversation about decision-making, discipline, and resilience in entrepreneurship. Jeff breaks down why early-stage effort often looks identical to failure, how removing options can be a powerful tool for focus, and why empathy is built through the dead ends most people try to avoid. Together, they explore listening as a competitive advantage, rebuilding after missed opportunities, and the frameworks Jeff uses to make better decisions when the pressure is on. This episode is a practical guide to staying in the fight and choosing the long game.

On this episode, Patrick and Hayden break down a chaotic Premier League weekend. Manchester United and Bournemouth play one of the games of the season, raising big questions about Amorim's control and long-term plan. Manchester City's attack looks like it's clicking again, but are the defensive issues still lurking beneath the surface? Arsenal remain the benchmark, but will their attacking deficiencies cost them the title?

In this conversation with Kolbie Blume, we explored how embracing imperfection can lead to deeper fulfillment in our creative pursuits. We discussed the concept of focusing on tiny moments of wonder rather than the final product, highlighting that the magic lies in the process, not the outcome. Our chat reminded me of the importance of investing in oneself and making room for personal joys, despite the everyday trade-offs and responsibilities that often overshadow our own needs. Rediscovering hobbies and allowing ourselves to be beginners opens doors to joy and self-acceptance. It's about learning to prioritize ourselves on our list of responsibilities, exploring creativity without fear, and finding joy in the messiness of life. Remember, it's not about achieving perfection but about valuing the process and the personal growth that comes with immersing yourself in something you love, just as it is. Through this interview and my personal journey, I realized that being messy is, indeed, part of the magic. Celebrate 9 years of About Progress by submitting to our annual Favorite Things Giveaway!

Reflection can be uncomfortable, especially when the year did not go the way you planned.In this episode, I walk through why reflection is meant to create clarity, not self-punishment. The last month of the year often magnifies comparison, pressure, and second-guessing, but none of those move you forward. What does move you forward is learning the lesson, releasing the shame, and continuing to take action anyway.We talk about why you do not need a new year to create a new outcome, why readiness is a myth, and why discipline and consistency matter more than motivation. Whether this year felt successful, disappointing, or somewhere in between, your experience still holds value if you extract the lesson without letting it define you.In this episode, you will learn how to:Reflect without turning the past into regretSeparate emotion from execution while honoring bothDrop shame without avoiding accountabilityBuild momentum through small, consistent actionsFinish the year strong without burnout or pressureMove forward with clarity instead of comparisonThis conversation reframes reflection as a tool for alignment, not judgment. Progress does not require perfection, a fresh calendar, or the right feeling. It requires one decision, one action, and the willingness to move forward differently.Take the lesson. Drop the shame.

Paper piles don't have to follow you into the new year. In this solo episode of Got Clutter? Get Organized!, I'm sharing 5 practical, no-stress strategies to tame the paperwork chaos in your home or office. Whether you're dealing with unopened mail, receipts, or outdated to-do lists, these tips will help you declutter what's no longer useful, digitize what matters, and set boundaries for the paper that comes into your life moving forward. Plus, I'll share a personal story of helping a client clear her late mother's paperwork—a moment that reminded us how freeing it is to get clarity, closure, and control. What You'll Learn: *Why sorting by category is more effective than by date *How to create a simple “paper triage” system that works *Exactly what you can toss right now (no guilt) *Tools to digitize receipts, forms, and more *How to create a clear 2026 paper policy that supports your life Taylor's Tip Time: Set aside 15 minutes and start with one paper pile today. Progress—not perfection—is what matters.
What if a “wrong” answer tells you more than a correct one? In today's episode, we sit down with Dr. Derek Briggs, professor of educational assessment at the University of Colorado Boulder, to unpack why assessment should go beyond testing, and instead focus on progress over mastery. Derek shows how context and thinking processes matter just as much as outcomes, and why mastery is not always simply laid out. To support a deeper understanding of progress, we explore a roadmap for measuring growth throughout your day-to-day. Start with a clear baseline, define where students are headed, and chart the route with smart, formative checkpoints. Derek shares an approach to “triage with intention”: use periodic measures to inform flexible grouping, then rotate focused attention across groups so support stays equitable. Derek also shares the power of strategic questioning, including entry and exit tickets. Over time, these small insights into a student's depth of knowledge add up to a clear picture that guides instruction.Derek goes on to discuss the power of community. Inside the classroom, heterogeneous groups help students model strategies, language, and persistence for one another. Across the school, teachers who bring open-ended student work to the table can discuss expectations, co-create rubrics, and see patterns that single classrooms miss. And when families understand the learning goals and what quality work looks like, home practice becomes purposeful and encouraging. The result is a culture where curiosity replaces judgment, students take ownership of growth, and assessment becomes a daily driver of learning.Read the blog: CurriculumAssociates.com/blog/Follow us on Twitter: @CurriculumAssocFollow us on Instagram: @MyiReadyHave feedback, questions, or want to be a guest?
